*A Zombie Apocalypse romance story* *Updated every two/three weeks on Wednesday* The world didn't end with a bang or a whimper. It ended with screams. God, I'd never forget the screams. They'd haunt me until I undoubtedly fell victim to the same fate, which realistically would have been sooner rather than later - if it hadn't been for him. Eric's world had ended 18 years prior. He mainly ran on fumes, doing jobs that would put him away for life if he got caught. It didn't matter to him; he had nothing to live for. Until The Dead rose and he met her. He knew he had a higher survival rate than most people, and he planned on using those skills to keep them from dying along with the rest of the planet.

Some stories begin with fireworks. Theirs began with silence. She was music-loud, fearless, alive. He was restraint-watchful, reserved, unreadable. Best friends long before they understood what they were becoming. She loved him quietly. He fell without permission. Too close to name it. Too afraid to claim it. Then came one lie. One accusation. One silence that chose destruction over truth. Her life didn't bend-it shattered. His didn't break-it calcified into cold. Ten years later, fate places them in the same room again. He is no longer the boy she knew- he is power, control, authority. And she is no longer the girl he remembers- she is quiet, detached, carrying a past that refuses to stay buried. The love between them doesn't return gently. It returns hungry-unfinished, unforgiven. Because this is not a story about falling in love. It is about what happens when love is silenced- and what it becomes when it comes back dangerous. Some loves don't fade. They mutate. And some reunions are not meant to heal- they are meant to burn.
