Chapter 12: Happy Once Agaim
Carley walks to the camps along with her brother Paul. It's so weird how my ex was my girlfriends ex's little sister. It's really crazy. "Everyone body, meet our newest members of the Miami Survivors. Carley, and her bigger brother, Paul."
Everyone says hi, expect for John and Wesley. "Oh my goodness, John? And Wesley?" She gives them a tight hug and Wes and John both give me a stare.
"Hey... Carley. Long time no see." Wes says. "Yeah. It's good to see you." John says. "Yeah, I can't believe this is actually happening. It's like a little reunion." Wes laughs uncomfortably and so does John. "Well. See you guys later."
She walks off to tall to Paul and John and Wesley come to me. "Wow. Did somebody order an ex-girlfriend? 'Cause it's here." Wesley says. "Come on Wes, it's no time for jokes right now."
"Well sorry. Who brought the Heartbreaker to the team? How did she find us? I could've sworn a girl like her would've been bitten by now." John shoulder bumps Wes on the arm. "Okay. I'll stop. But I still wanna know how she found us."
"Those are my thoughts exactly. I don't even think I should talk to her like that. It's always awkward whenever someone you don't like comes back onto your life." I tell them. "Yeah. Totally. But it shouldn't be. I mean, don't you like jesse? Jesse should be the only girl you wanna be with. Carley had her chance a long time ago."
"But Carley isn't the only problem." Now the both look confused. "Carley's brother, Paul was Jesse's ex-boyfriend. She told me she actually like him until he broke her heart." Wesley stops me from continuing.
"Wait a minute, your ex is jesse's ex-boyfriend's sister? And you knew about it?" I shake my head in disagreement. "I thought that it was just a coincidence." The both groan.
"Dude, not only is your ex back in your life, but so is jesse's. This is totally gonna be awkward for the both of you."
"I know. But as long as I tell jesse that I don't have feeling for Carley, I'm good." They both nod and jesse walks up to me. Before Wes and John leave, Wes comes to whisper in my ear. "Don't screw it up. Good luck." He says. I roll my eyes at him as he walks away.
Jesse gives a look. But it's not a look I'm used to. It looks like she has a lot on her mind. "Martin. We need to talk. Like, serious talk." I hear Wes wincing as he listens to the conversation.
We both look at him and he scratches his head leaving. "How come you didn't tell me about your ex? And we did she have to the little sister to mine?" She asked. I can tell she's being serious.
"I didn't tell about my ex because I didn't want to remember her. We went out for like a month until she dumped me. She even made sure she didn't like me by posting it on social media.
I'm pretty sure she made it pretty clear that she doesn't like me." I tell her. "And I honestly thought that the whole McAuthor thing was just a coincidence." She starts to giggle and then starts laughing.
"What's so funny?" I asked. "Nothing. It's just so weird how both of our ex's are back in our lives." I start to chuckle. That is kinda funny. "Martin. Promise me something. That you and I will be together forever." She says.
I couldn't believe she wants to be with me. But I want to be with her too. "I promise." She presses her lips against mine for a good 10 seconds. I pull away smiling with her as we rst our foreheads together.
I look to my left and see Carley walking towards us. Jesse leaves smiling at me and I sigh so I could go talk to Carley. "Wow. Looks like you really like her." I try not to blush. "Yeah. I do." I tell her.
"Well I'm glad to see you happy. It been a while." She says. "Look, we need to talk." She stops me. "I just want you to know, I don't want to take you away from jesse."
"What?" I asked. "I'm not here to start drama. I'm simply here to survive. I know things didn't go well last time, but can we be friends? At least acquaintances?"
I can't believe she doesn't like me. That makes everything 10 times better. "Yeah. That'd be cool." I shake her hand and I walk to the camps. I feel so pleased that she doesn't like me anymore. But I still feel a little weird.
"Hey guys, listen up. Our precious walmart has had a lot of zombies around it lately. That's at least what Bob and Carol said. But the issue is that we currently are running out of gas. But oh no, we have no walmart to go to. So, does anyone know a place that might have some gas?"
I start to think of a place. "How about a local gas station?" Tim says. "I say we go to Greenwood again." Carol says. "How 'bout me make our own type of gas. Maybe? Oh I don't know." Emma says.
I finally get that instant click. "How 'bout our old school? Greenwood High." I asked. Wes and John look at me and smile because they know what I'm taking about. The school John, Wesley, and I used to go to had a basement that apparently had a bunch of things so we can survive the zombie apocalypse.
A bunch of kids said it like it was just a myth. So I just naturally thought I was. "Oh yeah. Why didn't we go there before? You think it's actually there?" Wes asked. "If it is, we just got the jackpot." Everyone starts to look confused.
"What's so special about your old school?" Andy says. "Alright check it out, our principal was a total fan of zombie movies. He liked them so much, he told a bunch of students to put a whole supply of food, gas, and anything we need to survive a zombie apocalypse." Wes says
"I don't know if it's there, but we can at least look right." I said. Everyone mutters in conversation. "Alright. I gotta hand it to you, that's a good idea. Since you three know the place so well, you guys ate gonna get the stuff."
"I'll join. You guys are gonna need it." Jesse says. Carley walks to her brother and says nothing. Jesse kiss me lightly and andy continues talking. "Okay, so we're gonna take the car and refuel once we get there okay?" We all nod. I make sure I have my swords and machetes, Wes gets a hammer, John gets a combat pistol, and Jesse and andy have their knives. "Alright, destination, Greenwood High.
