     I look at Harry, and he is still smiling, " so, how do you like it here?". He says walking towards me, " its cozy... thank you for letting me stay...". I say, he walks next to me and sits on the floor.

     ," Hey, if we weren't there today, you would've been killed... plus you would probably done the same for one of us...". He said with an innocent look. His grey eyes looking deep into my soul. After all that happen this past year, he still manages to smile.

     What an inspiration. I smile at him, " so it's just the ten of ya huh?". I ask, " yeah, well there used to be more... but, an accident happened...". I look at him, " what happened?", I ask with curiosity. " well, we use to stay in the middle school building, but, people started to fight... everybody got paranoid of each other, we actually used to get along... until one of us broke -

     And opened the door, which swarmed the whole middle school building with zombies, killing most of us... luckily the ten of us made it out, and went to the high school building... come to think of it, Lawrence was our leader back then as well... he still manged to be that leader figure though...".

     I look at him, " I'm sorry you had to go through that...". I say with sympathy, " don't worry about it... it was in the past, and it should stay in the past...". He says firmly. " there is one thing I've always wanted to ask you...", I say looking down.

     ," hit me ", Harry said. I struggle a bit. " you... you were there when the zombie attacked my classroom...weren't you...". I said. The looks up me right away, " you went to that school? God, I didn't realiz- ". Before he finishes  his sentence, I cut him off.

     ," were you the one who saved the sophomore class...", I say firmly, " yes...", he gives a quick response. " why were there? You graduated...". " My mother, she was a teacher there... I came to visit because she forgot something at home... I brought it over to her, and that's when the epidemic broke out... did you get your answer?", He said with a smile.

     ," yes ", I sigh in relief. I just wanted to know if he was the one, he inspired me to survive this whole thing. It was silent in the room, " how did you know how to fight like that?", he ask. " I took lessons when I was younger, I was never a girly girl...". He smiles.

     ," the meeting is about to start ", Lawrence said peaking his head through the door.
