The Struggle is Real

Thank you.

       A/N: This chapter is dedicated too Makenna herself, and Mary. I hope you guys realize how much dedicating it means for my friends too be in this book! Love you guys!

 Makenna's POV

I look up too see a walker, and I didn't have my weapons. I feel it stop moving, and I look up too see William with his gun raised.

"Thank you." I said.

        a week later.

        It's been a week.. and it's NOT safe here. I kept telling Jarren that, but he wouldn't listen. Good thing is, Amanda and Julia, Alex K. too forgave me when I told them the truth. I got my phone too work! It play's music, and I have a pending relationship with William. He's ok, but still... he's kind of.. shy. I think that's cute. It's ok though, Ben's been ok, about the whole Dominick situation. It seems like he has a better relationship with Daniel though. Jarren told us it's better in the store, and there's more food, but walkers keep showing up, and one almost killed me until William saved me. We had a pending relationship since that day. He's a nice boy, and I hope that Ben doesn't change him. Ben and himself are close, and I accept that, but the thing is Ben, Daniel, and Dominick are such naughty boys, I hope he doesn't turn up like that. I should like "bad" boys but I don't. I'm just... Makenna. Right now I'm sitting and chatting with Amanda about a week ago when we had a bunch of wifi, and our parents took us too and from school everyday. I actually wouldn't care if I had a million pages of homework, i want too be back at the time when there were no thing like this. Julia's leg has gotten worse actually, she needed crutches soo we had to go on a run too find some. Everyone's getting better with a gun, especailly me, Jarren has been spending extra time with me. It makes me feel appreciated, and I think he's doing that cause I have a problem with Mary. Mary got mad at me once... but we're friends again.

A/N: Mary is not really like this, she's very loyal but because she was friends with Makenna and Kelsey before the apocolapyse, I want her too look like this becuase of how it should play out, do not judge her for this, she is a very nice girl, and please appreciate her for that.

        Anyway... it's been very hard for me, cause I'm a little sick. Some people think that I was bit, but I really not. I think I got it cause of the flu that's going around. I have been throwing up a lot. AND NO, it's not morning sickness, dammit. I've been throwing up mulitple times. Right now I'm lying on the sleeping bag I found in the bag aisles, and falling asleep when I hear footsteps. I expected it too be Julia, who took care of me alot but surprisingly it wasn't. It was William. Right now I wasn't in the mood for flirting so I just let him sit beside me. He was actually getting on my nerves.

"What do you want?" I groaned. He smiled. He had a good smile. He had shaggy brownish hair, with freckles across his cheeks, and green eyes. He was in 7th grade... or no.... 8th grade. I wish he realized he was so nice.

"I just wanted too make sure you weren't bit before I saved you last week?" UGH... he's been mentioning that forever. It's like he thought it was the best thing someone could do.

"No, I wasn't, right now if I was I would of told you cause I'm so sick and damn tired of puking."

He was in silence, "Whatever I eat of drink, I puke. If I drink water, It's gone within minutes. That's why I have a fever, I'm so dehydrated." I say sitting up.

"Man that sucks." He says slapping his knee sarcastically.

"Im serious, man." I say putting my head in my hands. He rubs the back of my head.

"It's ok, your getting better."

"Did you ask me that?" I say smiling up at him. He laughs.

"Well, when you first got sick you were just... just weak and pale.. now your at normal color, and you can stand up." I shrug.
