When time froze

Chapter Two

I stood up with mud all over my cloths and noticed Luke walking up to me.

"Hey, sorry about him, he has anger issues." We laughed a little until he saw the cut on my arm. "Hey what happened to you?" he asked.

"Oh, um... I got mud on it," I told him, trying to hide the injured arm behind my back.

"No," he stated while pulling the injured arm in front of me. "This. What happened."

"Oh, it's just a little cut from the seat. I'm fine."

"Here." He gave me a wet rag and said, "Wash it off, or it will get infected."

"I will. You should probably go talk to your brother."Luke nodded and walked away. 

"Hey dude, are you okay?" I heard coming from behind me. 

"Yea," I said turning around. It was Leslie, my best friend other than Havana. 

"Oh! Hey Leslie," I said to her.

"Hey, how's it going. I heard you nearly got pushed into a fire. Oh, and did you get anything? We're low on food and water."

"Sorry, not this time. We had no time to get any thing."

"Aria, we have no time at all here, remember? It froze months ago."

"Yes Leslie, I know. I think I can tell since the people who did freeze time own every place in the world."

"Yeah... The frozen are stupid. I mean, they think that because they can hunt really well and that they're the rulers of the world means they have to be bullies about it. God, I wish they would just suck my frozen ass."

"Huh... I think we all wish that." 

"Hey guys, have you seen Carl?" a sweet voice asked from behind us. Leslie and I turned around  to see Skylar standing there.

"I think he's either with Delilah or Luke," I replied to her. She and Delilah  have always had a small crush on Carl. 

"Ugh, of course he is...," she said with a disgusted tone. "Well, thanks. Bye." With that, she left.

"Huh... Who do you think would be the best girlfriend for Carl...? I think Delilah." Leslie said to me.

"Hm, I don't know. Probably Skylar. Why do you think Delilah?" 

"Because she is a badass, even if she is a screaming bitch sometimes. But she can be sweet too. Also, she had two really cool, badass brothers before this happened. Skylar is way too jealous of every thing. Why do you think Skylar?"

"Well she is a badass as well, but much more sweet and nice than a badass. Her little brother, Joel, was really cool and sweet. And I believe Carl has known her longer than Delilah."

"Yeah I guess. And omg, I loved her little brother. Do you remember that one time when he-"

"Hey, what are you doing there just standing and talking? We have work to do. We've got no food because someone didn't get any," Jake butted in rudely. We ignored him and walked off. 

"He is such a fucking idiot," Leslie said.

"Right?" I replied as we went to our shelters. She came over to mine and we sat on my bed, talking about the things we miss.

"I miss fast food, or just good food at all." Leslie said sitting on the floor. 

"I miss Doctor Who." I said sitting on the bed.

"I miss my computer."

"I miss the Walking Dead." 

"I miss being inside a warm house instead of a stick house."

"I miss Mincraft, Daryl Dixon, Michonne, sugar, sugar, more sugar, TV and junk food." I said. 

"Yeah..." she replied.We then heard a knock on the makeshift door and Leslie opened it. 

"Oh, hey Skylar," Leslie greeted while letting her in. "What're you doing here?" 

"Hey, can I tell you guys something...?" she asked with an unsure voice before sitting in the chair next to her.

"Yeah, of course," Leslie reassured her.

"Yup," I said.

"Okay... Here it goes," and a short pause later, "I think you guys know this already, but I have a crush on Carl."
