Chapter 1: Warehouse Movies
"Wake up, Kay!" Exclaimed Bonnie as she yanked the blanket off me.
I stirred in my bed curling to a ball while holding a pillow for dear life to avoid the sunlight. After nearly three years of no sleep I tend to be sleeping beauty not wanting to wake up. Juts sleep and enjoys the dreams that came with the package of being human again. However Bonnie has to remind me that reality is more important as she grabbed my leg and yanked me out of bed. The force she held got me landing on the wood flooring with a loud painful thud.
"Ow!" I cried.
"Well, that what's happens when you sleep in, dear." Bonnie said.
I looked at the clock to see it was eight o'clock on a Saturday. I sighed for the weekends are the busiest time of year when running a movie theater here at the wall. Where those who work hard on the week days finally relax to either have family quality time, sports, or in most cases go to the movies. So telling my adoptive mom I'll get ready, she leaves with a satisfied grin. I sighed once more getting up out of bed and headed to the bathroom for a quick shower.
To those who are wondering, my name is Kay. Just Kay since I can't remember my last name due to the fact last year I was dead. Yeah, hard to believe, but I'm not kidding. I was once a Copse (some may consider the term zombie) roaming around the city searching for humans to eat. It's unknown of how it all began let alone the apocalypse started. Could it have been chemical warfare or an airborne virus, the evolution of the swine flu, or a radioactive mosquito that accidently ate toxic waste? But that truly doesn't matter right now for the Corpses were cured by love….minus the bonies. We plain right killed them. They were too far gone to be cure. There is nothing to miss when being a Corpse. Sure the unexplainable super strength and endurance are gone but truly being human again is all that matters.
How it all began is simply on a hunt with my adoptive mother B (Who is Bonnie) and met a guy name Dylan. Simple boy meets girl. Okay, when we met me accidently killed his fiancé Shelby and ate her brains. But no hard feelings between us. Anyway, I saved him from being eaten from the herd and during the next few days we got to know each other thus starting a beautiful (if not awkward) friendship that changed the Corpses back to human. Now Dylan and I are together as a couple and we don't care what people say.
After finishing the shower, I changed in the typical clothes with my favorite red converse and demine vest before kissing Bonnie on the cheek and left our apartment with some toast. Before living in the wall while memories of my original vague, I used to live in a movie theater and taught myself to use a film projector. So I work in a small warehouse where I do what I love for a living watching film. Showing my film collection to the people. However today in the morning is a kid's birthday party whose family paid for a "Despicable Me" marathon of the first and second film. Tucker, son the sergeant of the wall promised to be at the warehouse early to do the DVD projector before I do the film of the second movie. Afterwards most of the films will be what assign on the schedule is. Though I'm not pleased for tonight's movie request on World War Z. In fact, I try to limit the amount of Zombie films at the theater.
"Morning Prom, Skater," I called out to my coworkers at the warehouse.
Prom Queen and Skater Boy were also Corpses until they were cure. Now they are a couple working with me on the warehouse theater. Like most Corpses they forgotten what it was like to be human, but they were taught how to be human once more. Prom Queen worked at the concession stand while Skater Boy on cleaning and concession stand…only if the two can stop snacking on the popcorn. They two wave their hands with a smile before going back to work in getting the chairs assemble. Also getting the decoration together of balloons and streamer. I went to the upstairs office to check on the projector. I put on some white lint free cotton gloves to protect the film as I set the Despicable Me 2 in the projector checking its condition and rewind to the movie section skipping the trailers.
A knock on the door caught my attention to turn around to see Tucker. "Hey Tuck."
"Hey Kay, see you got all the things together." Tuck said.
"Yeah, but I still have difficulties on the movie DVD projector." I added.
"Don't worry, your knight in shining armor is here." He said happily with a cheesy smile before going over instruction.
I rolled my eyes on the once junkie as he showed me how to use the DVD projector, explaining how it works before the birthday party started. By ten the birthday boy and guest arrived excited to see a movie they never saw before. Although, the parents seemed to recall the movie before the apocalypse. You be surprise when a movie nine years ago would attract the young adults. Who could forget an insane villain, mad scientist, oh and especially the yellow minions? The party became a success as the children did birthday cake and presents when both films were over. Around two O'clock in the afternoon did they leave.
I sighed relieved when putting the film back in the canister. The next movie won't be till five pm, so I told Prom Queen and Skater Boy to go take a break. Tucker left after the first movie, so I stayed at the warehouse alone cleaning and organizing things. I went outside to the sign to update on the movie when two strong arms wrapped around my waist while their owners head rested on my shoulder. A smile graced my lips to lean back in Dylan's arm.
"Hi," Dylan said.
"Hi," I replied back.
"How did the birthday party go?" he asked.
"Better than the last," I answered turning around to face him. "How was your morning?"
"Fine, slept in." he chuckled.
"Well lucky you," I muttered before going back to work in putting up the sign for Man of Steel and World War Z.
Dylan laughed leaning against the wall arms crossed. "You still are putting that movie on?"
"Even though the Exhumes and I don't appreciate watching Zombie films doesn't mean our clients could agree." I said.
"Do you ever get a break?" he asked.
"Only on weekday mornings though when summer vacation comes…." I stopped not wanting to think about it. It'll be nonstop movies.
Dylan shook his head and laugh. We headed back inside as he offers to help me set up for the Man of Steel. I appreciated it deeply in what my boyfriend does time and again when he is not scavenging. Outside the wall hasn't been confirmed yet to be safe from sighting of Bonnies or Mids (A Corpse turning into a bonnie) but each day is getting better.
