Zombie (Jikook)(COMPLETED)

Chapter 39: Quiet

As Jimin and Tae were busy scoping out the area for the building where Jungkook had gotten bitten, Jungkook tagging along absentmindedly, they didn't notice the figure of someone watching them from far away.

"Come now, Tae. I think it's safe to go check it out." Jimin said, gesturing towards the broken down, rusted out building not too far off.

"Ok, but... I'm worried we won't get back in time..." Tae had whispered, but loud enough that Jimin heard him.

"Taehyung, we've got bigger things to worry about then thinking of going back. Besides, you said they might be there if we go back. Even if you think they might follow us all the way out here, even if the limited supplies they have, they'll be sore losers. They can't survive out here like we can. They'd just end up a zombie's dinner. We've gotten this far, let's push on. You never know, someone could be out here to help us." Jimin had said so fast, he practically rapped.

"Woah, woah... calm down. This isn't freaking rap contest. Slow down." Tae had responded, eyeing everything around him.

"I was s-" Jimin started once again, interupted by a weary Tae.

"Shh..." Tae interrupted.

Tae had whispered, holding his finger up to Jimin's mouth, causing the other to breathe in, ready to scold him for interrupting his thoughts.

An eerie silence fell upon them as Tae still help his finger to Jimin's lips, eyes scanning everything around him.

He could swear he felt another presence with them, even though he couldn't see them, he knew his senses were telling him something was up.

"Tae..." Jimin started before Tae pushed his finger closer to his lips, urging him to quiet down through the gesture.

He couldn't tell what, but he knew there was something off about where they were.

Before Taehyung could even process what was happening, he felt his finger being torn away from Jimin's lips, the other beginning to speak.

"Tae.Hyung."

"W-what..." Tae responded, stuttering out of fear of what Jimin would say to him for doing what Jimin told him never to do.

"Never.Do.That.Again."

"I thought I heard something..."

"No. You didn't. You're just fooling around. Why can't you be serious for once." Jimin lectured, annoyed that Tae wouldn't be serious at a time like this.

"But I thought I felt another person here, that's why I did that. Because I thought someone else was here, and I don't want to jeopardize our position. They could be here to steal from us or something, Jimin. They could be dangerous." Tae replied, tears slightly welling up. The though of his bestfriend not believing him made him feel horrible.

"Tae... no one is going to be here. Come on now, we need to find a spot before it gets too dark, seeing as the zombie moves at the pace of a snail." Jimin responded, eyeing around the broken down buildings, rubble and chunks of unknown things scattered everywhere.

"Fine, but only because you'll get on me again if I do anything else." Tae murmured, doing a snotty voice to be bratty.

After their little argument, they pushed aside their differences and continued on towards the convenience store which was in rubble and broken down.

"We should get some water..." Jimin said, breaking the almost suffocating silence.

"Well, you know where it is, Chim." Tae responded, leaving the conversation empty, devoid of emotion.

Slinking the bag off his shoulder, Jimin zipped open the bag, grabbed the water canteen he had packed for emergencies, on case they didn't or couldn't get back in time.

Picking up the water canteen, Jimin unscrewed the lid, and carefully sipped some water.

They had to be conscious of how much they drank so they knew they had enough if a dire situation presented itself.

After drinking and putting the lid back on, he stuffed it in his backpack, and they kept moving.

They had no idea who they would meet.
