The Apocalypse Love

The introduction

He smilied and said" Hey that was a close one wasnt it. "

At first I didnt hear what he was saying I was to schoked that my scream for help was anwserd by this tall stranger. I replied with no real thought.

" Yeah it was "

" Well my name is Carl and yours?"

He's asking for my name wow I cant remeber the last time someone actually asked me that question. I wasn't around people forever well it seemed like forever. I didnt answer the question at first . And he repeated his question.

" Anyone there whats your name?"

" Oh sorry... my name is  Claire. Thanks for the help back their your a life saver."

" No problem if you were me you probally do the same thing I hope."

" Yeah I would help. I have tryed to help everyone I have come across."

I can barely pay attention to what he is saying the thought of being around a living person of all the people in the world it had the most handsome boy I have seen since this whole thing started. Before I knew it  he was asking me question once again.

" Do you have a camp or are you all alone?"

" No I dont have a camp I havent been in one for a very long time at least a year or so."

" Really... well do you want to come to mine"

The thought of me joining another camp is thrilling, but also worried me how long would it be until I was on my own again? Should I go to his camp? 

Next thing I know I said " Really that would be great!"

" Great we could use your help follow me!"

We walked about two miles through an abandoned town and another two miles through thick forest. But he stopped me before we eneterd the camp.

He said " Before we go into camp I have to tell you the group isnt that welcoming of new members but Im sure that they will warm up to you."

I replied hesitantly " Okay are you sure that im welcome."

" Of course you are."

We walked into a camp full of at least half a dozen people. Before I knew it some man came rushing that looked like Carl and handcuffed me to a tree brach.

Carl screamed " What are you doing Dad?"

The man replied " Carl you know how we feel about strangers."

" But Dad she helped me she saved my life."

Why would Carl lie for me. Hes the one who saved me. 

" Is this true did you save my sons life."

I didnt know what to say I looked at Carl and he had the look on his face which said say yes.I was unsure but quickly said,

" Yes I did"

The next thing I relized was that he was un handcuffing me. Wow he really does care about me if Carl was risking lieing so I could stay he must care for me. Why would he care about me if we only just met ?

" Well than my names Rick and what would yours be?

Carl answerd for me " Dad her name is Claire"

" Well do you mind me to talk to her alone for a minute"

The terror ran through me . Does he know that i was lieing to him? Is he going to kill me.
