I don't know what's happening right now. I'm in my old house. I see my mom and dad come out and walk very slowly. "Mom? Dad?" I said. But then someone else walks with them. I think it's janet.

But it's not janet. It's my other brother I could've had, Tyler. They're all dead. Why are they here? Until I realized that the were zombies. I try to fight back, but then my mom jumps at me until I scream.

I wake up almost hitting the top of my tent. After I scream myself awake, I give a good sigh of relief that it was just a dream. I'm suprised that no one woke up from that. Maybe because it looks like it's only 2 or 3 o'clock in the morning.

I get up. Put on my clothes, strap on my swords and machetes, and head out of the camp to the nearby waterfall. I get undressed and cannonball into the water.

I settle into the water for about an hour. I swim to the waterfall and start to wash myself. Until the person I least expected came. Jesse. I go under the water and hide show she doesn't see me. Oh crap. Why now? I thought.

She gets undressed and heads to where I'm at. Luckily I took swimming lessons when I was young, so I can hold my breath for up to 4 to 5 minutes. I swim under her sight very slowly show she can't see the ripples of the water.

I was almost free to go. "Hey newbie, you know I can see you right." Damn it! I thought. I get up and she starts laughing. "Well this could only be weird if you make it weird."

"Do you want me to join you?" She nods her head yes and I swim like a shark. And once I reach her, I jump making a total splash and she starts to laugh out loud. "Are you going to wash your dreads?" "Yeah." She then touches it. "Your hair is so soft." Hell yeah! Score! I thought.

After 5 minutes of the best shower ever. We get out of the shower laughing to a joke I made. "You know, your not bad newb." We walk back to the camps to catch almost everyone looking at us.

"What." We both say in unison. "Don't try and hide it. Where did you too lovebirds come from?" Andy asks with a laugh. "We aren't lovebirds. And I went for a shower. He just went hunting." She says with a wink. "Hmm. Okay. You don't have to tell me anything." He says mockingly with a chuckle.

I walk over to talk to ryan. It seems like barely know anyone. So I have to at least get to know him like jesse did for me. "Hey Ryan. What's up?" Ryan is picky about who he hangs with.

"Nothing. Why?" "Well, I just realized I don't know anyone except for janet, John,Wesley, and Jesse. So I decided to try and know you guys better. So we could be a better team." I said with a quirky smile.

He can't help but chuckle just a little. "Well if you want to know so badly, my name Is Ryan Sharpe, I am 27, I have no parents or siblings anymore 'Cause of this apocalypse, I was born in Texas but moved here when I was 3, before the zombie apocalypse i was a mechanic, and I don't really have anything else to say."

"Okay. Thanks for telling me." I walk off to see Emma just sitting on a log. "Hey Emma. You busy?" She gets up. "No. What's up young lad?" Emma was really more of an old cool grandma that's still a bad ass.

"I just hate it that I don't really know you. So I just want you to tell me some stuff about you." She clears her throat. "Well, my name is Emma Forest, I am 53 years old, My parents are dead, but my sister Carol is fine, I was born in Michigan, before this whole ruckus started I was an old and hip grandma of 3, and I have no other reason to tell you anything else."

"Okay. Thank you." She smiles and continues to think. Now I have to know who Carol is. Carol is more of a tramatized wreck. Ever since I first saw her she was always shy and nervous.

"Hey Carol. What's happening?" I asked. "You want to know more about me don't you? I heard you talking to my sister so let's get this done. My name is Carol Forest, sister to Emma, and I was born in Michigan, I am 47, I was a detective, and that's all you need to know." She says."Wow. Okay. Thank you." I head out and look back at how scared she looked.

Now all I have to do is get to know Bob. "Hey Bob. Would you like to give me a little info about you." He focuses on me and clears his throat. "Sure. My name is Bob Dixon, I was a technician before all of this, my wife divorced me hear in Miami so I don't know where she is, I'm am 31 years old, and that's all I have to say." I thank him and then head out of his way. Now I know everyone on my team. I was almost calm until andy comes with a walkie talkie telling us to be quiet.

"Everyone listen!" He screams. All we hear is radio static until we hear a males voice. "Help me! I'm stuck with zombies surrounding me. I'm at walmart. Please help me!" "We're on our way. Someone needs help. Start up the Jeep. Martin, let's go." He says. "Oh. Okay." I make sure I have my swords and machetes on get in the Wrangler.

On the ride to the walmart, no one talked, but I didn't need to. Somebody's life is on the line. And it's up to us to help them. "So. You two seem to be getting along." He smiles at me. "Uh. Um. Yeah. You can say that." Now he starts to laugh. "I'm just teasing." It's cool if you like my sister. You have my blessings. Your a cool dude."

Just then Jesse starts to blush a little. Until she pointed at the walmart. "Okay. I'll see where the trouble is. Until then, you to stay here." He says with a smile.

"Well. Wanna listen to some music?" I turn on the radio to scroll through nothing but nonsense music. "You know what, silence is cool." We sit for about 5 minutes in silence. "Hey newbie, why are you so awkward?" She says while moving to the front of the jeep.

"I'm not akward." She looks at me with disbelief. Then she smiles. "Sure your not. But seriously, whenever we are around, you tend to get all shaky and weird. Why?" I guess I got to confess. "Look okay, I don't know why this happens. Maybe you just make me do weird things."

"So do you like me or something." She asks. "I don't know. I think I do but I don't know what I-" She stops me and leans forward. Then she presses her lips on mine. The first kiss from a girl that isn't my mom.

The kiss was warm and soft. And it felt like fireworks went off. But then she let's go. She smiles a little and leans in for another kiss. This time feeling better than the first.

That's when a tap on the window with andy face in it shows that andy has gotten the new survivor. She moves back embarrassed."What did I just walk into?" Now I feel embarrassed. Then the guy steps into the jeep. He had an eyepatch on his left eye, regular overalls, and jeans

"Guys, this is Timothy Greene." Andy says. "Please, call me Tim." Me and Jesse don't talk at all. Just smile. "So, tim, where are you from?" "I'm from Texas and I moved here because of my wife. Who is now dead." The rest of the ride is now silent. We have nothing but an old man in the jeep.

We head back to show tim to everyone. "What's your story?" We all ask him. "Okay. I was born in North Carolina, I am 55 years old, I was a doctor before all of this, I had a wife named Martha, and that's really it."

We all sit near the fire and wait for andy and bob to come back from hunting. When the come back, they bring a big deer. "We got meat everyone." We put the meat on the fire and roast it and then cook up the leftover beans and rice.

The entire time eating I thought about Jesse. I had her on my mind. Now I definitely know she likes me. But I have to take baby steps.  I don't wanna assume and get embarrassed. 

Now it's nighttime and everyone else is a sleep besides Jesse. As soon as I am about to sleep, She comes to me. "So, about what happened." She stops for a second.

"Look, I'm sorry for doing that. To be entirely honest, I only did that to be nice. I would never do something like that to a friend." She said. What does this mean? "I don't understand. Do you not like me?" She sighs and tries to explain. "I never said that. But it's just, I don't even know you like that to just kiss you.

It's not fair to kiss someone after you just met them 3 days ago." She has a point. I don't really know her like that either. "So, what are you saying? Is it a no or a yes?" I ask. "It's a no for now. I have to at least get to know you as a person to actually think about liking you. You know what I mean?"

Usually guys would take this as a defeat, but she made perfect sense. She just needs time to know the real me. "Yeah. I get it. You need to know me first. But I can't promise not being akward. That's just who I am." She laughs a little. "Well goodnight newb." "Goodnight."

"Hey. Can you get some sleep now? We have a long day tomorrow." Andy wakes up and says. We both laugh and go to bed. Once I tie my hair to go to sleep, I see one of my dreads turned white. Woah. What's this?
