Worlds Over, Time to Die. Nothing Left but our Souls Inside.

March 28, 2015- Alysha Nett

Today was a day of planning. Now that we found Erin, our runs are not only going to be for supplies, but also for a new shelter, nearer to the interior borders of California. Over the recent days, and since the incident, Kellin andI have become a lot closer. No one knows about the burial of Gabe still, just he and I do. He seems to be becoming more and more unstable with each passing day of not knowing where his family is and knowing that he slaughtered his best friend, and I'm hoping that the farther away from this place, and the closer to Oregon we get, the calmer Kellin will be.
Jaime is still recovering and so is Erin, so we'll have to wait a couple more days before we can move out. It's up to Mike and I to find a new safe place that's closer to the border- though the border may not mean much if the whole world is infected like this. Still, there's hope.


I rolled over and looked at the sleeping man laying beside me. I half-smiled, knowing we were all back together- well, almost all of us. That's why it was a half-smile. I gently kissed his nose and sat up. I looked around in the darkness and then over at the window, trying to remember who was on watch tonight. I slowly moved Mike's slender arm off of me and stood, walking quietly towards the door. I snuck out the door and plopped down beside the half-asleep Kellin. Reaching into my back pocket, I pulled out the pack of cigs I'd found in a convenience store. Kellin was the only one who knew I had them. He sighed and I lit up, breathing in, then huffing out the smoke that slightly burned my lungs.
I looked up at him sitting there, staring straight forward, his blue eyes focused on the darkness, with the faint moonlight shining off his pale skin.
"Want a puff?" I asked quietly, still making him jump a bit. He sighed again. I knew he didn't like to smoke often, but he was stressed and his family wasn't around, which is usually why he doesn't.
He reached over for the cigarette and I handed it to him. He stuck it in his mouth, inhaled, then coughed as the grey smoke left his chapped lips. He handed it back to me and I copied his actions, except without the coughing.
I finished the cigarette and put it out in the rain puddle next to me. "How're you holding up?" I asked my silent friend. He just shrugged. I sighed and stood up, then started to walk away, but he grabbed my hand and kept me in place.
"Al?" he said almost timidly. "Yeah, Kells?" I answered, looking down at him. "I miss them..." he said, releasing my hand and looking at the ground. "I know you do," I replied, leaning down to hug him and placing a kiss on his slightly sweaty forehead.
He stood and wrapped his arms around me, hugging me tightly. I closed my eyes and rubbed his back gently as he sighed into my shoulder. We pulled apart and he lingered, then pressed his lips to mine quickly and pulled back.
His eyes widened as did mine. I backed up a bit, then turned and quickly walked back inside. I looked at Mike as he slept, then turned around. I couldn't go back and lay down peacefully with him after Kellin had just kissed me and I liked it.
I didn't dare look back out the window at the married man who'd made me feel so guilty, so I turned and looked in the direction the light was shining through. That's when I saw a problem.

Vic was standing right there, staring wide-eyed at me. His jaw was practically on the floor.

I'm in trouble.

OMG!!!! I'm so happy right now! Can this happen for real though?!
For some reason I fell like D.C has something to do with a quarantine. Like they get there but they find this wall of sorts and they're denied entry because they've been in the "infected" zone. It could be all of the zombie/disease books I've been reading, too. I read "The Girl with All of the Gifts" by M.R Carey before this story and just reread "Dreamcatcher" by Stephen King. Can't wait for more!
