Marlon lead me outside.

The hallway was pretty long, It took us a while to get to the main doors outside.
Once we get outside it was pretty big. It was closed in with walls, brick walls.

"So, you've been surviving a while out there, huh?"

"Yeah... been traveling alone for a while now. A few years..." I say as my eyes trail to all the different shit around the school. It was all so intriguing to me.

"Take it you know how to handle yourself? We don't usually see people our age out in the wild. I.. can't imagine what it must've been like."

"Sure. I do what I can to get by... I guess."

"No matter what?" He quickly asked.
"Hey don't worry about it. We all do what we have to."

Tennessee ran and whistled to a girl who was laying on a brick wall. Tenn pointed at me, signalling my presence to the girl. She glanced over at me for only a second before looking away again.

She had dirty blond hair, cut into a bob, along with overgrown bangs hovering her eyes. Her eyes were a real pretty light green and she had a fair skin complexion.

"...it's good we found you when we did. It wasn't easy getting you out of that wreck. Walkers were already on their way. 20 at least."

"The car. It wasn't COMPLETELY destroyed was it?"

"Yeah. It kinda was." He scratched the back of his neck.

"Fuck." I folded my arms, looking at the dirt at my feet.

"We had to work fast. Don't know what would've happened if we hadn't seen the smoke." Marlon told me.

I noticed a kid staring at me on the corner of my eye. I turn and face him, slightly uncomfortable. He looked about 12. He had short light brown hair that passed his ear and light skin with freckles.

"I uh... appreciate it." I reply to Marlon while looking at this kid.

"All alone, by yourself? Not a pleasant thought. I've seen some rough scenes. But that one was up there." Marlon dragged.

The kid stared at me as if he were cringed out or disgusted.

'what? do I have something on my face ?'

"Uh... hi there?"

He runs past me after i said that.
That kid is kinda weird if you ask me...
I look back at Marlon.

"What's his problem?" I ask Marlon.

"You just new. We haven't seen anything like you in... ever."

I glanced at him.
"What's that supposed to mean?"

"Oh! Nothing! I j-just mean nobody has passed through here in a real long time," by now he looks nervous.

I hold back a chuckle at his sudden stutters and hide it with a fade smile.

"Don't worry. I'm Y/N by the way."
He nods.

I looked over to my left and saw two girls sitting at a picnic table. Both with orange hair. My best guess is they were twins or sisters. I could only see one of the girls' face. The other one had their back turned to me, sitting opposite from the other. She had beautiful long, straight hair... I was officially jealous...
She was the one with her back to me.
