Lucy: Mmmm, so comfy and soft. Nuzzling myself against it I happily opened my eyes, then almost freaked out. I had been cuddling Dean, feeling the blood rush to my cheeks I pulled away, then Dean started mumbling things in his sleep and pulled himself closer to me. I sat there stiff as a board, aww he looks so cute-wait! Did I just think that!?"....warm....." He mumbled.

"Dean? Deeaan, wake up. Please?" All he did was snore a little and I rolled my eyes, there was one thing I knew he hated, people giving him nicknames. I'ms sorry but you leave me no choice, unless I wanna dump cold water on you.

"Hey Dino, De-De! Wake up Dino!!" I whisper-yelled in his ears.

"Cut it ooouut Luuuu!!!" He whined.

That's adorable. "C'mon wake up, busy day today." I said. He opened his eyes and pouted at his loss of sleep in time, I rolled my eyes.

"You know I don't like being called nicknames."

"It was either that or cold water, pick your poison next time." He rolled his eyes, after we went back inside his room and drank coffee, and ate bacon, (I didn't realize how much I missed it!) After that we had to do some training, the only form of a gun I had used was a paintball gun, I guess that was good enough for them. Dean was one of the few people that knew how to use a real gun, so he agreed to teach me, while the others taught other people. After a while Dean said I could stop, and told me I did a good job, I started to help the others build the bridges while Dean set up the sentry list. Almost everyone here knew he was detective, so I guess we all silently elected him to be our leader, we found out the other buildings did what we did. So every group had a leader, and we all started working with each other! We had five groups, scavengers, sentries, attack/defense squads, engineers/communications people, and then our medics, only two went to medical school, the rest were just people that knew how to treat basic illnesses and cuts. I thought we were doing pretty good under the circumstances, there were no riots or gun fights, we were staying calm and collected, that was what we needed to be. All though, something kept nagging me in the back of my head, a new person had arrived in town yesterday, a little before the out break. He said his name was Justin Ion, I felt like I trusted him and at the same time I felt like I didn't. The zombies were stumbling around the town, some of them have taken to clawing at the bricks, trying to get at us, that wouldn't work though, we're smart, and had functioning brains.

"Hey there."

"Oh! Hey." I turned around, startled, that Justin person was standing there in front of me.

"Hahaha, sorry, I didn't mean to scare you." He laughed.

"Its fine, really." He grinned at me. He messed up black hair, brown eyes, and had jeans, a plain blue shirt on and a dark blue jacket, he was average sized and had a gorgeous tan. He kept staring at me, it felt weird like I had seen him before.

"So, what exactly happened, I remember driving here last night, then I got a room here and this morning this happened."

"Well uh, the zombie apocalypse happened last night, we don't know where exactly, but they came down from the mountain road." I answered.

"Huh, so what group did you sign up for?"

"Scavenger."

"Same, none of them really appealed to me, this one did for sure though. Wanna get something to eat, I found something." He said.

"N-no thanks I just ate breakfast." I was hungry but, my instincts were telling me no, though my stomach was telling me yes a hundred times over.

"Well okay, maybe another time." He had moved closer to me and I felt even more uncomfortable. "Are you okay? You don't look very good."

"No I'm fine, hey have I seen you before? I feel like I have somewhere."

"Hmmm, nope, I don't think so, I don't remember you at all. I'd remember seeing a girl as a cute as you before." He winked and then laughed, his voice was so smooth, and familiar.

"Lucy, who's this? I don't remember seeing him before." Dean walked beside me and I felt safer, he was like my rock, when ever I felt scared or uncomfortable, when he'd come near I'd feel better again, it was like nothing moved him. Well this being an exception.

"This is Justin, Justin this is Dean." I said. Justin flashed him a smile and Dean nodded his head, I don't think Dean likes him, I could be wrong though.

"What'd you sign up for Dean?"

"Scavenger, they said they could use my skills as anything else but, I like being able to keep an eye on Lucy." He said.

"Really? I guess that means we're a team!" I exclaimed happily. I was mostly thinking of Dean and me, but I didn't want to seem rude so I looked and smiled at Justin when I said it.

Dean:  I tried to think of where I saw Justin before, his face or name didn't ring a bell, but it was written all over Lu's, I asked him when he got here and he said last night, before the outbreak happened. His story seemed suspicious to me, then again, I'm a detective and after all awhile, most stories seem suspicious, he was probably telling the truth. After awhile of talking with him, I excused us and started talking over the plans with Lucy, every now and then slipping a question related to Justin in. "Dean, are you maybe suspicious of him?" She asked.

"No, I'm just curious about him, and you know him a little better than me, I just want to find out more stuff about him."

"Why don't you ask him?"

"If I do, it'll make me look suspicious of him, I'd be sending the wrong message."

"Oh, okay, I guess that makes sense." She answered. I pat her head and she tried to ward my hand away, laughing about how I'll ruin her hair, I noticed Justin staring at us, we made eye contact and he walked away, inside the buildings. I told Lucy that from here on out, I wanted her to shadow him, and talk him every few days, get as much info as she can, then report it back to me. When asked why, I said it was because his story sounded suspicious to me, I didn't say what I really wanted to, for fear that it might scare her. For the time being, it would remain a possible theory.

He might have something to with their release, or he might be one of the scientists.
