Fallen Angel----10K----Z Nation

Chapter 11 Part 1

I am so sorry for not publishing sooner! My computer broke and then I had a bunch of family drama, long story short I had to get a job to pay for my laptop. I've decided that I will finish season 1 and then I will edit it, once editing is done I will make a separate book for season 2. Editing might take a while because of the family drama (My parents are getting a divorce. Yay!. No sarcasm I'm actually happy). 

Believe it or not but i got my first boyfriend!!! Like who would want to date this ugly sack of potatoes, apparently a super cute guy from my work. So like I'm actually happy for the first time in my life. Love that for me.  

Thank you all so much for 1.7k reads!!!!!!! I never thought I would make it this far! 

-------------------------------------------------------------------------

We were somewhere west of the Rockies. We had made a pit stop, Warren was currently talking to CZ. 10K and I were with Cassandra helping her out, she was throwing up and I held her hair back. "Fell better?" 10K asked handing her a bandanna to wipe her mouth with. He put one of her arms over his shoulder and I put the other one over mine. We start to lift her off the ground "No.no.no.no.no" she said groaning in pain. We get back in the van and Warren explains that we are now going to Colorado instead of California. 

10K was sitting by the door Warren to his left and Cassandra and I to his right. Cassandra had her head on my lap and was peacefully sleeping. Murphy sat in the passenger and Doc drove.

"Well, Murphy I think I'm going to miss your sorry ass" Doc tells him "I appreciate the sentiment" Murphy says sounding genuine. "We logged some miles together, brother" Warren and I both mumble an "Amen" "Starting to feel like a damn family. You know what I'm sayin'?" I had always thought everyone here was like family to each other, and now I finally feel like I'm part of that family "Uh, I...I dunno if I've actually ever said this to anyone before. But I, uhh... I almost consider you a friend" What Murohy said actually shocked me. I thought he hated everyone here.

"Yeah, I don't envy you though, man. I mean, hell, once we deliver you, all bets are off. They're going to have more needles stuck in you than the damn tomato in grandma's sewing basket"

"No, they're... they're just gonna take out my..."

"Oh, trust me, they're gonna have some kind of tube or prod rammed in every spare orifice, or my name ain't Sally. You know this one time I had a catheter. Dude, you better hope they don't go that route." Doc's rambling was cut off by Warren "Doc." "What?" he asked innocently "How much further" she asked changing the subject. "Uh, I dunno 65 miles or so. Anyway, I'm gonna miss you, dude" I knew Murphy was thinking hard about what Doc said and might not go through with the plan. "Yeah right" he mumbles.

"How 'bout you, kids? What do you got planned?" Doc calls back to 10K and I. "Get myself a new bike, see the rest of the states. Other than that I have no clue " I tell them being completely honest. I look over at 10K silently asking 'what about you'. "Uh, I don't know. Still got 6,998 to go. Might take a break for a while though, head up north somewhere cold. The Zs don't fare to well in the cold" 10K sends me a small smile and I smile back. "Yeah, I don't fare too well in the cold myself. Roberta?" "Uh, I don't know. Maybe follow the sun west. I've never been to California. How 'bout you, Doc?" Doc shrugs slightly "Maybe I'll buy a boat and sail around the world. Find me an island where there's not even a Z in their alphabet" Warren and I chuckle.

 I know that no matter what happens to us, Doc with always be funny, 10K will always be a good aim, Warren will always be a leader, Cassandra will always be helping people, and Murphy will always be an ass. Knowing this is the only thing keeping me going, only thing that helps me sleep at night.
