Dedicated to Greenninjagal even though it's not your birthday this is your birthday present. Happy undead unbirthday to you. Happy undead unbirthday to you. Happy undead unbirthday to Greenninjagal . Happy undead unbirthday to you. Yep that's all I got enjoy.
I was nose to nose with 10k. This was the meaning of claustrophobia. It was so dark. My eyes couldn't adjust, but could feel the tip of his nose against mine. The warmth of his bodies the sound of his breaths. What was I suppose to say or do? So I reverted to anyone would say.
"Sweet baby Jesus we're close." He let out a small chuckle. I try to press myself against the wall. It didn't really help.
"Do you want your goggles back?" I ask him.
"Sure." I try not stroke him as I move my arm. I pull the goggles off and strap them back on to 10k's. My finger touch the tips of his hair.
"Sorry I didn't mean to touch you."
"It's fine." the sound of the door breaking and a rush of bodies into the room just on the other side. I take a deep breath.
"You doin' okay?" He asks me softly.
"Well I'm stuck in tin box of death with Zs on the other side. I could be doing so much better." Silence fell you could hear Doc slowly move around under us. I kept one of my hands on my chest the other pressed against my leg. I thought it be too weird if I put my arms crossed over my chest. 10k's hand was up against mine. Did he want to hold my hand or was it just, because we were too close? The hell if I know. I closed my eyes and start to list things in my head. Like my favorite movies. 1. Guardians of the Galaxy, Chris Pratt is so hot and the acting is so good in that movie. 2. Clue, one of the best movies ever. 3. Stardust not only is it magically, but one of the characters is kind of a drag queen.
"Guys if we band together we can totally take them." I opened my eyes. Shit Oliver is going crazy.
"Kid stay in there we can't take them we have to wait." Doc said trying talk him out of it.
"On three."
"Don't do this kid."
"One."
"Jesus Mary and Joseph." I quickly said
"Two." I squeezed my eyes shut.
"Three!" A single gun shot, then a scream. I grabbed 10k's hand. At first his hand has relaxed, but then he held it.
"You good down there?" I asked Doc and Cassandra.
"Peachy." Doc said nothing from Cassandra. She was probably terrified I would be too. What am I talking about I am terrified. Either me or 10k could turn. I needed to calm down.
"Want to play twenty questions?"
"Sure." 10k replied.
"When was the first time you got in really big trouble?"
"It was when I tried to sneak out of the house when I was ten. I wanted to hangout with my friends, but I had to stay home and clean my room. I was balancing halfway out my window when my pa walked in and dragged me out." I could hear the happiness in his voice. "What about you?"
"Mine is a bit crazy. It involves a hot rod, my uncle, and my need for speed."
"This is gotta be good."
"I was about seventeen and my dad just got this beautiful new mustang. It was the muscle cars of all muscle cars. No one expect my father was allowed to touch that car. And of course that just makes me want to drive it even more. You would think Josh would take it, but no it was the prodigal daughter herself. So, one night while my parents were at work. I took the keys off the key hook wallets into the garage like a badass got in the car and drove off. Now of course I didn't go crazy at first I just you know went around town. But there is this road that just stretches straight on for miles. It was known that drag racers would come ride here. I of course knew that no one would be there it was only like six at night. So I drove to the road to the road and at the intersection that leads onto it there is a stop sign. I stop look both ways, then haul ass. I was going like 90 miles per hour down that damn road. I felt like I was in fast and the furious. My god it was one of the best times of my life. But then I heard sirens. I felt like I had just been shot. It started getting sweaty I wasn't going to run from the cops, but I knew my ass was grass. I pull over. The cop parks behind me and gets out taps on my window. I almost died in my seat. It was my uncle. Not the one who works for the circus. I was arrested in less then ten seconds for reckless driving."
"Oh my god! What did your dad do?"
"Oh I was never allowed anywhere ever for like two years." He chuckled. "Okay, I got a question. What was your first kiss like?"
"Good one. It was horrible. The guy did not understand how to kiss so he had his mouth open and somehow chipped a tooth and bite my lip all at the same time."
"Ouch."
"How about you? How was your first kiss. Was it with a the head cheerleader? Or the most popular girl at school?"
"No I've never been kissed." Favorite movie number 4. Never been kissed Drew Barrymore plays a journalist who goes undercover into a high school a classic rom com.
"Really? I feel like all the girls would throw themselves at you." I moved a little closer to him. His breath got shaky.
"No they wouldn't." When he spoke his lips would touch mine. "They wouldn't." He repeated. Our lips were about to meet. My heart raced, my palms got sweatier. The door swung open. The coffin room became flooded with light. Which forced my eyes closed. I reopen them and look into 10k's. They were filled excitement and hint of anger.
"Oops do I ruin the moment?" Murphy said. I didn't answer I flipped onto my stomach and pushed my way out. Murphy somewhat catching me, then helping me to my feet. 10k handed me my bag. I met eyes with Warren. She had a smile plastered on her face.
"Happy you're alive." I said to her
"I'm happy you are too." She replied. I opened the door to Cassandra. She was curled up in a ball.
"Cass." She looked up and smiled. She crawled out.
"Never thought I would see you again." She enveloped me into a hug. She buried her head into my neck. I hug her back.
"Well ain't that cute." Doc said
"You should have saw what her and lover boy over here were about to do." My eyes widened. Cassandra released me, but kept her hands on my shoulders.
"Is he serious?" She asked
"It depends on what you think he's saying."
"Did you guys kiss?" She said in a whisper.
"No." I said overusing the "o".
"Did you almost?" I looked behind me at 10k who was blushing. Which made me blush.
"Maybe." She hit me in the arm and mumbled stupid.
"Ow!" I furrow my eyebrows.
"But, guys look what I got!" Murphy said like a five year old bringing home a picture he drew himself. He held up a gallon of water and bag of food.
"I could kiss you." I blurted out.
"Don't."
"How, where, who?" Doc stumbled with his questions.
"A dead family, I didn't think they needed it anymore." We all sat at the examination table eating and drinking. We laughed at 10k who spoke so many words. About how he thought Warren was dead and the food. This was now one of my happiest moments in life.
