Suho’s POV

I glared at Jimin’s back as we arrived at the hut. We’ve been searching for Kris the entire morning, and now it’s just after midday and he was back to chatting with her animatedly.

To be honest, I hated two timing jerks. Even though you say you’re just friends but if I find you joking around with some girls other than your girlfriend, I’ll be happy to help you set the priorities for you. Guys should have more sense. The only thing stopping me now was Naeun. She won’t be pleased of Jimin come back with a busted lip and broken nose.

Or that maybe I was just jealous?

I sighed in annoyance as I raked a hand through my hair. I’m not sure how people could fall in love during this situation either. But ARGH, I’m not one to talk.

I continued my way to an empty chair in the middle of the living room as Jimin followed Seulgi into the kitchen. I rolled my eyes. Just a friend, my ass.

My mind switched back to the scream we heard a few moments back. I insisted that we went after it, but Seulgi said it’s better that we don’t. Apparently she have heard a lot of screams that belonged to people who were eaten by the zombies. Her face changed after she said that, and while I was dumbfounded, Jimin seemed to understand and sided with her.

I grunted. What did Naeun see in him?

Suho, promise me you’ll come back safely. Promise me that you’ll bring him back safely.

I squeezed my eyes shut, fighting the headache that was starting to form and trying so hard to numb the sting I felt inside.

“Suho…” I snapped my eyes open just to see Jimin standing there with Seulgi beside him.

“What.” I answered. Oh wait, that came out harsher than I intended seeing that she flinched a bit on my tone, but whatever.

Jimin glanced to her and switched back his eyes to me. His jaw clenched, he’s annoyed. Good.

“We have to gather food. The food in her cupboard will barely reach next month.”

I switched my gaze to the girl who was fumbling with the hem of her shirt nervously. I’m glad I have that effect on people, I’m not exactly nice when I lost my cool, and right now I’m pissed. Thanks to a particular guy.

“Well um- the last time I went out for food was two months ago, and since you guys are here now… um-“

I turned back to Jimin. “Wait, you’re not planning to stay here, aren’t you?”

“What, no… I just…”

“Great, cause Naeun expects me to bring you back safely.” I emphasized on her name and stood up, wanting to get out of the house as soon as I can. I walked to the door and when I sensed no one following me, I turned on my heels.

“I thought you want to get some food?”

*  *  *

“That’s not nice.”

I glanced to my side. Jimin was walking next to me but kept a reasonable distance. I turned my eyes back in front. Seulgi was leading the way as she was a few steps ahead. She told us that there were some grocery shops in the town. She always get her food there.

I knew what he was talking about but I decided to play dumb. “What is?”

Jimin sighed in irritation. “What you said earlier, Suho. She’s just alone.”

“I could care less Jimin, she has been doing fine all along and suddenly you want to turn into some kind of knight in shining armour for her? What about someone who must be worried sick about you?”

He was silent at that and I shook my head.

“Keep your priorities straight or I’ll do it for you.”

He glared at me. “What’s it for you anyway? Do you like Seulgi, or even Naeun?” His voice lowered to the point that he almost growled at me. So someone’s possessive.

But fuck, he did hit some point there.

I scoffed, a little bit hard than I intended. “Of course not! I just hate two timers.”

“Good, ‘cause I’ll kill you if you even dare.” He said between gritted teeth and walked faster while I shot daggers on his back.

Well I’d like to see him try.

Eunji’s POV

That dumb Jungkook is seriously getting to me! I mean, how dare he even made a move on me! I felt the heat on my cheeks again when I thought of our nearly touching lips before…

I shook my head and groaned. JUNG EUNJI GET A HOLD OF YOURSELF!!

“Is your kiss really disturbing you that much?” I snapped my head back and I slapped my palms on my cheek to cover the blush that was starting to show. He chuckled.

I stood up straighter and pretended to look at a package. I didn’t even know what I was holding, my mind was such a mess.

“Are you on your time of the month?” Huh?

I glanced at Luhan who had a sheepish look and turned back to the soft package in my hand. OH MY GOD! I threw the tampon back on the shelf and scurried away from the woman’s section. What the fuck?!

Shit shit shit! Someone please shoot me dead now!

“Wait, Eunji! Don’t go alone.” He followed me and we reached at a place that sell vegetables. There was none actually, what’s left was a few empty shelves and some rotten things that must’ve been green before. I crinkled my nose in disgust. What can we get in a place like this anyway?

I poked on a blackened pumpkin out of curiosity and it crumbled on my touch, giving out a nauseating smell that made me gag.

“Should’ve not done that.” I mumbled and walked to the other section, purposely manoeuvring around the fish and meat area because God knows how bad the stench was. I can actually smell it a few rows over.

I reached out for a cereal and looked at its expiry date with Luhan behind me quiet all the time. If he thought I was gonna start making a decent conversation with him, he was wrong.

But that didn’t mean he couldn’t.

“So… um… Are you and Jungkook… you know, a thing now?”

I stopped what I was doing and quickly recovered myself.

“No.”

I heard a sigh and I turned at him. Was he disappointed or something that I wasn’t with him? I glared at him. Well I’m busy living and I absolutely have no time getting down!

“Well just in case you haven’t noticed, we’re trapped in an apocalypse with death trying to get to us and we’re constantly running for survival. So excuse me if I haven’t got time for-for… a thing!” I rambled and his jaw dropped. We continued staring at each other, my grip on the cereal box tightened and I felt like chucking the box on his face.

He blinked once. Twice. “What? NO! You must’ve misunderstood. I don’t mean it that way.”

He sighed and rubbed his nape awkwardly. “What I mean is… um… I’m glad you don’t have anything with him…”

And he mumbled. “Anything special.”

I cocked a brow and was about to say something but someone beat me to it.

“I’m not going to walk in to a heated situation again, am I?”

Luhan and I turned our head sharply. Kai was standing a few steps away, glaring at the two of us but mostly to Luhan and I watched as they stare at each other. I rolled my eyes in annoyance. I’m out of here, I have enough of testosterone for a day!

Luhan’s POV

I kept my distance behind her as we walked out of the store. Kai had a plastic bag in one of his hand filled with snacks while I just filled mine with a few soft drinks and bottled water, since I wasn’t sure what Eunji would like. Basically our group were quiet except from Jungkook who was currently trying to talk with Eunji, while Eunji of course, much to my delight turned away from him every time he popped up in front of her.

“Are you mad?” He asked and I held back my annoyance. Kai, in the other hand wasn’t so keen of his close proximity with Eunji.

“Ah come on! It was just a kiss!” He exclaimed and Kai stiffened beside me. Eunji continued to ignore him. “It’s not even a real one…” He murmured.

“I’ve had enough of this.” Kai muttered and pulled him back.
Jungkook stumbled backward and Kai started to nag at him, something about him tried shamelessly flirting with someone who didn’t even show an ounce of interest in him. I tuned them out as I focused on how her hips swayed and her ponytail followed while she was walking. Call me a pervert, but even the smallest detail of her intrigued me.

I heard it before I even saw it, the sound an old truck would give if you revved it up after a long time. But it wasn’t just one, almost a convoy of them. I snapped my head around and in an instance my eyes stopped at a shop in front of us at the end of the alley, the big mirror that was displayed facing the street showed me the incoming vehicles and they were awfully familiar.

My eyes widened in realisation and I looked at the girl who was so far ahead from us. She was oddly walking like a zombie itself without realising the danger she have yet to notice. I turned back to the mirror and saw the vehicles were approaching in a fast speed so I ran.

I pulled her back just in time and jumped back into the shadow, slamming my back on the brick a bit harder with her on my chest. The two guys behind us noticed this and they retreated back, covering themselves with the big dumpster just as the vehicles passed. A few trucks zoomed, and there were also motorcycles.

I wrapped my hand on her slim waist as another one buried in her hair, pulling her as close as I could, savouring each seconds as they passed. It was an act of covering her, but I didn’t deny the fact that I have been wanting to do it. She felt right within my hold and I wished that we could stay like this forever.

But dreams like mine will only stay as a dream.

The vehicles vroomed by as our frantic heartbeats mingled as one. It wasn’t long until the last one passed but I kept my hands around her. She released a deep breath and pushed away but I didn’t budge. She tried again and I pulled her even closer. Her forehead crinkled in annoyance and those beautiful pair of hazel trailed up to mine. I was lost in them until I heard her gasp, my eyes trailed to that luscious lips. Now I understand why Jungkook tried to kiss her. Maybe I could…

“YAH!” Someone yelled and she pushed herself away from me. I turned to Kai who was fuming, his face was tinged in deep red and I tried so hard not to roll my eyes. Jungkook was looking at us speechless.

So much for being romantic.
