If today was your last day

Chapter 2

I was riding on the bus for over an hour after my fight with the convoy leader. Otto welcomed me on as he opened the door flashing me a smile.

As I entered the bus I noticed I was the centre of attention while all the kids stared at me making me uncomfortable under their glazes.

Turning to the left, I drop myself in the front seat and place my bag next to me as I stare out the window.

Fidgeting with my fingers as the bus got loud by all of the voices talking making me close my eyes and try to block out the Nosie.

Two kids tried to talk or start a conversion with me but I only just stared daggers at them before they shut up and returned talking to their friends. I wasn't in the mood to talk to humans.

So I pulled out my laptop, plugged in my earphones before pressing play on the keypad. I watched warm bodies and I started to feel much better.

I almost felt like the zombie myself, feeling lost and confused but mostly calm about it. Just walking around in boredom and only grunt, moaning to people.

I have no idea what to do with my live now, just copying what everyone else is doing.

Pulling out my earphones as I heard the kids quiet down making me look up in confusion. What's going on?

'Ok guys, we are stopping at a motel so I want you to grab your stuff and line up and wait for me to order you into rooms' he said making me pull my lip up in disgust. I'm not sharing sorry.

After he finished talking, the kids cheered and the bus started to get loud by all of the kids talking.

Slowly packing up my laptop and placing it carefully back in my backpack as I saw the kids exiting the bus.

Zipping up my bag and standing up, swinging it onto my back, strapping it in as I stood waiting for the last person to leave so I could get out.

Walking out of my seat and into the aisle, making my way to the door and stepping out into the sunlight before I hear the door close behind me.

Adjusting my bag on my back, I look around before I spot Carlos over at his truck, mentioning me over like he knew I was looking for him.

fixing my sunglasses before making my way past the crowd, pushing people out of my way as I stare at Carlos though my sunglasses.

Stopping in front of him as I look up to see him glancing at me.

'Carlos can you please get my travel bag' I asked him nicely since I didn't want to go get it because of Claire.

'No I won't' he said with a smile frowning at him making me stare at him confused.

'What?' I asked sounding upset he wouldn't get my bag for me.

'You are' he explained staring down at me with a smirk.

'Are you mad?!' I asked him in shock at him suggesting I go get my bag from the hummer where that crazy bitch is. She will rip me apart and feed me to the dead!'

'No I'll make you a deal, if you apologize to Claire, I will let you have a room by yourself' he said with a smile placing his hand on my shoulder, bending down to look at me in the eyes.

'Do I get my axe back?' I asked him shyly since I missed my axe.

'No sorry Tay, it's the rules gorgeous' he explained to me giving me a brief smile, giving my shoulder a squeeze.

'It's the best I got' he said taking a deep breath giving me a sad smile.

'Look you don't have to like her, just be nice to her ok'? He told me before placing a kiss on the top of my head.

'Ok deal' I said making him smile before he shook my hand and turning me around before pushing me towards the hummer where I saw Claire having a cigarette on the bummer.

Wiping my sweaty hands over my skinny jeans as I walked closer to the redhead.

Crackling my neck before hearing it crack making me sigh.

Stretching my hands, feeling the bones pop with another crack, before rolling my neck around keeping my eyes on the convoy leader.

Seeing the redhead look up as I reach her, watching me with a frown before taking a drag from the cigarette, blowing it out to the side.

'What do you want?' she said in an annoyed voice before taking another drag keeping her eyes on me.

Opening my mouth before hearing nothing come out making me shake my head trying to talk but nothing coming out. Oh no, not again, speak god dammit.

Watching Claire stare at me in confusion waiting for me to talk but nothing is coming out. I must have looked like a gold fish while opening and closing my mouth numerous times.

'Well? Spit it out!' she yelled to me while looking at me with cold look before butting out her cigarette keeping her attention on me, crossing her arms waiting.

I' err' just' I stuttered out before turning around to see Carlos watching me with a smile before giving me the thumbs up.

Snapping back to see Claire standing watching me with an eyebrow raised while tapping her foot on the ground.

Breathing deeply before looking into her eyes.

'I made a mistake' I started out slowly taking deep breathes to stop me from stuttering again.

'Ok' she said nodding her head slowly leaning forward to me.

'It was a horrible mistake' I again slowly spoke to her trying to calm my heartbeat.

'Yes' she told me looking at me waiting for me to continue.

'And I'm sorry' I quickly said before turning my head looking over the side of the hummer, avoiding her confronting stare.

Then I realised I have my sunglasses on so she couldn't see my eyes or where I was looking.

Slowly turning back to see her watching me with a smile making me feel better that I got rid of most of the tension between us.

'So I apologize about my mistake and it won't happen again' I calmly apologized to her looking right at her in the eyes showing her I was serious about this and it wasn't a joke.

'Ok good, I apologize too' she told me making me smile at her.

Nodding my head at her now since I was feeling a bit awkward now.

'You can get your bag now' she said smiling letting out chuckle making me blink in surprise, how did she know?

'Thanks' I muttered to her before nodding awkwardly turning and walking along the side of the hummer and stopping at the back.

Opening the back and seeing my travel bag, grabbing it and carefully closing the door, not wanting to slam it.

Walking out from the back and walking over to Carlos who was watching me with a big smile.

Ducking my head as I started to very shy under his stare keeping my eyes on my shoes.

Looking up as I reach him before he puts his arm over my shoulders bringing me close to his side.

'I'm so proud of you!' he said giving me and looking at me with a smile.

'Ha-ha yeah' I said awkwardly not used to the attention before I felt him kiss my head again.

'And for that you can pick any room you want' he explained to me with a proud voice.

'I pick number 2' I answered him showing him what room I wanted as I pointed to number 2 door.

'Good choice!' he said before dropping his arm from my shoulder and promising me he will be back, walking over to where the news van was.

Shrugging my shoulders before walking up to the number 2 door, dropping my travel bag beside me on the ground before twisting the handle and realising its locked, placing my backpack on the ground with my other bag.

Of cause it's locked.

Quickly looking over my shoulder to see if anyone is looking at me, only seeing Alice and Claire in an embrace making me pull my lips at in disgust. Gross.

'Hey where is Becky?' Alice asked Claire looking around her to notice her daughter has disappeared.

'She was just here with me before' Claire told her pulling out of the embrace and scanning the area to look for the little girl.

'Bloody hell' Alice cursed under her breath trying to find her with her eyes.

'Maybe she went and followed Kmart'? Claire suggested feeling her girlfriend uneasy about not knowing where Becky is.

'But Kmart would tell us' Alice said in confused trying not to be scared and worried for her daughter.

Alice' Claire whispered staring at the sight, seeing Becky shadowing Tayla to the number 2 door. Both of them thinking the same thing, trouble.

'Oh no Becky!' Alice yelled as she and Claire started sprinting towards the young girl following the teenager without her knowing.

Seeing no one taking notice of me, I took a few steps back, straighten my back before lifting my foot up getting ready to kick it down.

'Oh no Becky!' hearing a loud voice call out making me turn before hearing a grunting sound.

Looking down in the gap between the grounds to the door, I saw movement making me quickly step back in a defence position. Shit

Watching the door fall forward to the ground before a zombie came running out, quickly ducking its arms and grabbing its neck and jaw.

Shoving it around before pushing its neck left before twisting it back right with cracking loud seeing the bone snap out its neck making blood spatter on my shirt and on the ground in front of me, dropping it to the ground with a thump.

Taking a few deep breaths trying to calm my electric heart.

Before noticing a young girl sitting on the ground no farther then 2 feet away from me, staring at me with wide eyes, parted lips and frozen from shock and pale as a ghost, making me look at her with my face full of shock. Oh no she saw it

Oh no

Watching her stare at me before closing her eyes, quickly dashing forward and catching her in my arms before she hit the ground, knowing she passed out in shock.

'BECKY!?' Alice yelled out running over with Claire close behind, dropping and taking Becky out of my arms while Carlos and chase, Otto ran over, Carlos coming over to me putting a hand on my shoulder.

'And that's why I need to have my axe on me!' I shouted at them feeling very sick that I had to touch the thing to kill it making everyone look at me with surprise.

'Betty!' Claire yelled as a dark coloured lady run over and looking at her.

'What's wrong with her?' Claire asked trying to find out if she was going to be ok.

'She's in shock' the lady said before Alice picked her up and followed the nurse.

'Alice I didn't know that she was behind me, if I knew I wouldn't of done it, I would of closed the door for her not to see it' I started to rant out feeling like it was my fault for the young girl going into shock because of what I did in front of her eyes.

Watching her pass the little girl to Claire who followed Betty and coming over to me before laying a hand on my shoulder.

'Tay its fine, Becky likes to shadow people she likes, it's not your fault and I'm happy you did what you did because I wouldn't of been able to get there in time' she said quietly to me looking me in the eyes.

Nodding my head as I knew I couldn't blame myself before she give me a squeeze and walked over to the ambulance.

'I thought this place was clear' Carlos glowed out in anger for the near death.

'It was' LJ told him looking at the body on the ground

'Chase can you get the body out of here please' Carlos quietly told the cowboy before looking at Tay with concern. LJ and chase dragged the body around the back leaving me and Carlos alone.

'Tay are you ok'? He asked me feeling worried for the teenager. That's going to stay in that girls mind til she dies.

'No, I'm probably going to give that girl nightmares about what I did right in front of her!' I said while shaking my head feeling so disappointed and very guilty about my actions. I should of look behind me before breaking its neck.

'Hey I'm proud of you killed it before it got to Becky and trust me she's been though worse so don't blame yourself' he said making me look at him though my sunglasses showing him I was listening.

'Anyway I wasn't meaning that way, are you ok physically? He asked again explaining to me more knowing he confused me by the question.

'Yeah it didn't get me, I was too fast' I told him with a small smirk making him chuckle before giving me a kiss on the head.

'Ok go have a shower, freshen up and change clothes and just chill out and I'll come get you when Becky wakes up' he told me looking at me before handing me my backpack and travel bag.

'Yes sir' I said making him shake his head before walking off.

Turning around and walking in, closing the door with a quiet shut.

Taking a deep breath and walking over to the double bed, dropping my bags on the mattress. Taking off my shoes and placing them in front of the bed.

Opening my billabong travel bag and grabbing a red flannel shirt with a black hoodie on the back, some black skinny jeans, fresh boxers and clean socks, new bra before taking my shower bag and zipping the travel bag up.

Walking past the kitchen and turning into the bathroom, closing the door and locking it. I strip myself and grab my soup.

Turning on the water to hot, stepping in and closing my eyes at the feeling of my hot warm shower.

After 10 minutes, I turned off the water and stepped out, dried my body and put on my fresh boxers and my black skinny jeans and my red bra before spraying myself with lynx and opening the door.

Walking over to my travel bag, unzipping it and placing my shower bag back in and zipping it up before grabbing my hoodie shirt in my right hand and grabbing the remote to the TV, turning it on to cartoons.

Unbuttoning it in front of me with my back to the door, slipping it though my arms as I continue to watch the TV in amusement. I missed cartoons.

'Err wait how did you get those?' a voice asked making me grunt and curse myself before roughly pulling my collar up and quickly covering it up.

'Don't you knock?' I let out in hiss annoyed that she thought she could come and walk in.

'No wait, Claire said that there were scares but' Kmart said stopping me and turning me around so she could have a better look making me take a deep breath before looking up at the ceiling with an emotionless face.

'I'm, Tayla what happened to you out there?' she asked me with a low voice staring at my chest and stomach, ribcage and lightly touching them making me step back from her.

'I don't wanna talk about it' I told her with a dead voice before buttoning it up in front of her.

'It's ok I understand' she said quietly while giving me a sad smile. No you don't.

'No you don't your just a human, you have no idea' I spat out in anger standing very still after finishing my shirt up before grabbing my socks off the bed and putting them on my feet.

'I like your shirt, it suits you' she said pointing to my shirt with a blush.

'Yeah red is my colour' I told her with a shy smile before putting my red globes back on.

'It is' she whispered lamely making me chuckle.

'So why do you wear your sunglasses all the time? She asked me looking at me curious.

'What is this 21 questions?' I spat back at her getting annoyed again with her talking. Strapping my shoes together while I waited.

'Kinder' she said with a smirk before giggling making me roll my eyes at her.

'So why don't you ever shut up?' I asked her with a straight face watching her stop laughing and looking at me hurt.

'So do you always say what you think?' she asked with a cold voice staring at me.

'Yes' I answered her being honest making her glance at me in confusion.

'That was a tutorial question' she said with a normal voice.

'Oh well I answered it because I wanted to' I explained to her with a smirk making her blush and look away making me smile bigger.

'So what's wrong with your eyes?' she asked again making me grind my teeth together.

'Please shut up before I hurt you Kmart' I warned her not joking what's her deal, was she dropped at birth?

'No I want to know' she continue to push me, trying to break through my emotionless wall.

'You really don't' I whispered looking down at my shoes and seeing them tied.

'I bet you have pretty eyes' she quietly said making me whip around to stare at her shock.

'I bet you're a lesbian and I'm not interested 'I told her in my dead voice showing her I wasn't in the mood to be hit on by a girl.

'Oh' she whispered with a light blush before looking down at her feet.

'I'm straight but nice try' I said to her with a smirk, standing up from the bed and walking over to the door with her following.

'Look I just want to take your sunglasses off' she yelled before pushing the door shut and standing in front of it.

'Kmart don't' I warned her feeling very tense knowing what she was going to do.

Watching in fear as she reaches out and grips the sunglasses before a loud knock stops her in mid-air making me out of a breath of relief.

'Tay you in there, Becky's awake' Carlos voice broke out pass the door making me close my eyes at his perfect timing.

Smirking at Kmart before she grunted, grabbing her by the shoulders and pushing her to the side before opening the door to see Carlos leaning against the door frame with a smile.

'Hey Carlos' I greeted him calmly as I let out a smile.

'Wow you look much better now without that blood on you' he commented on my clothing making me smirk at him.

'Oh hello Kmart' he greeted the blonde girl looking at her surprised to find her here with Tayla who stepped out of the room.

'Carlos' she said with a wave and took off leaving behind a confused Carlos and an awkward Tayla.

'What the hell was all that about?' he whispered glancing at Tay questionly.

'You don't wanna know' I muttered to him before closing the door and walking down the footpath with him following.

Walking over the footpath and seeing Betty talking with LJ and I don't think it was talking the way Betty was blushing.

I spotted chase on top of the tanker on watch and Claire outside the ambulance having a smoke peacefully.

'Tay I'm just warning you, be careful around Kmart' he said with concern placing a hand on my back.

'Why'? I asked annoyed that he thinks I'm trying to get with her when it's the other way around.

'Kmart is Claire's younger sister and if she knew and you hurt her trust me she's do more than hurt you believe me' he muttered quietly as we were getting closer to the ambulance.

'That's funny because she likes me and I have told her number of times I'm not interested but she won't let it go' I calmly explained it to him before he nodded with a smile.

'Well that's Kmart for you, she likes you, you know' he said with a blush.

'Yeah and I'm really regret telling her to shut up because she just keeps coming onto me nonstop' I told him with disgust since I can't stand gay people even worse when they come on to me.

'Yeah well Kmart doesn't stop til she's satisfied by the results' he explained to me softly before I blinked feeling very uneasy about her now.

Reaching the ambulance before I could reply, seeing Claire give me a smile before mentioning to climb in.

Jumping onto the back and opening the doors to see the little girl wrapped in Alice's arms reading her a book.

Closing the doors behind me before she looked up and smiled at me making me confused why she looked happy to see me.

'Hey I'm Becky' she said in a hoarse voice while doing sign language with me.

'Hey Becky my name is Tayla' I said before feeling dumb that she can't hear me before Alice chuckles making me look at her.

'It's ok, she has her hearing aid on her so she can hear you just can't stop the sign language' Alice explained to me with a smirk.

'Oh I said embarrassed before shaking my head feeling stupid.

'I'm sorry about what I did in front of you' I told her keeping my eyes on my shoes still feeling bad about it.

Waiting for her to say something before getting tackled to the ground and looking up to meet small light blue eyes staring into my sunglasses.

'It's ok, I just wanted to follow you' she choked out slowly.

'Yeah Alice told me that' I said with a smile before she wrapped her arms around my neck.

'Well I'm glad you're ok so ill head back to my room' I said to her, helping her off me and standing up before turning around, opening the doors and jumping out in silence.

Walking back over past the little fire and towards my room again.

Hearing someone whistle out to me making me turn around in confusion before being tackled to the ground by a small body, holding the person as we fell down.

Groaning before sitting up on my elbows to be pushed back to the ground by a soft small of hands wrapping around my neck.

'Err what is with you and jumping on me?' I muttered quietly knowing who it was by how soft her skin was.

Only getting a giggle as an answer before lightly pushing her chest for her to detangle from me but she only gripped my neck harder making me frown.

Slowly getting up from the ground as she hung to me like a monkey before looking up to see Alice watching me with an amused smile while Claire just looked surprised.

'She wants to hang with you for a while' Alice told me in a loud voice before smirking at the sight of her hugging me.

'Oh ahaha' I said before laughing out.

'She likes to hug and cuddle' she explained to me making Claire chuckle next her making me roll my eyes at them.

'Yeah I've noticed' I muttered quietly before feeling her tighten her arms around my neck.

'I'll come and get her in a few hours before lights out' Alice told me with a happy smile while wrapping her arm around Claire's shoulder making me look away awkwardly.

'Ok sounds good thanks Alice' I said to her before turning and walking towards my room with Becky in my arms.

'No thank you' she said making me shake my head at the dirty things going through my mind at what they are up to.

'Have fun' Claire yelled out confirming my questions and thoughts. OH MY GOD!'

'Looks like we have 3-4 hours to yourselves' Alice said feeling excited to have some alone time with her girlfriend.

'Hmm and it's been a while' Claire told her with a purr before bitting her ear and licking the lobe.

'Too long' Alice said kissing Claire's neck and jaw and kicking the door shut before pushing her on the bed and climbing on top of her.

'Tell me about it' Claire muttered before moaning when Alice sucked her pulse point before giving her a hicky.

Opening the door and walking in with Becky wrapped around my body like a baby, closing the door and kicking my shoes off on the ground.

So what do you do for fun?' I asked her with a quiet voice since she wasn't letting go of me.

All I got was a shrug of her shoulders making e chuckle.

Ok guess we can just watch a movie for a few hours' I suggested as I walk over to the bed carefully leaning down to put her down before she shakes her head knowing what I was doing.

'Haha its ok, I just have to get my laptop out and we can lay on the bed but first you have to let go' I told her with a shy amused voice trying to get her on the bed before she slowly lets go and lays on the bed staring at me with big pale blue eyes. Shit they are almost the same colour of mine.

Quickly grabbing my laptop out and changing the movie to a kids one, how to train a dragon before placing it on the bed in front of her.

Undoing my top button and laying down on the bed before she jumped on me wrapping her arms my neck making me freeze at how quick she was.

Trying to pay attention to the movie, trying very hard to calm myself down before she moved on my lap placing both legs beside me making me suck in a breath.

What the fuck, damn don't get turned on

This is so wrong, she's like 12 bloody hell.

Feeling her tighten her arms and squeezing her legs around my whist making me let out a shakily breath before watching the movie.
