Chapter 4
It was the morning of August 7th and Jamie woke up in his room. He got up and walked downstairs to see Haley cooking breakfast.
"Good morning Mama," Jamie said. "What's for dinner?"
Haley turned around and was revealed to have fangs.
"Plasma!" Haley shouted.
"Mommy!" Jamie screamed. "You're a…"
"A zombie!" Haley shouted.
"No," Jamie said. "You're a vampire."
"I think I know the difference between a zombie and a vampire," Haley said. "Now join me! Let me just bite your hand and you'll be a zombie like me! Together we can start and Mommy/Son zombie cult."
"First of all, you're a vampire!" Jamie shouted. "Second of all, never!"
Jamie began to run and Haley chased after him. Jamie ran out the kitchen door into the driveway. Haley came out the door.
"Don't have your car keys do you?" Haley asked in a sinister tone. "Come on Jamie, just let me turn you into a zombie!"
"Vampire, and no!" Jamie screamed.
Nathan drove up in his car and rolled down the window.
"Son!" Nathan shouted. "Get in the car!"
Jamie quickly got into Nathan's car and Nathan sped off.
"Why is Mommy a vampire?!" Jamie screamed.
"She's not a vampire," Nathan said. "She's a zombie. There's an epidemic going around."
"Dad!" Jamie shouted. "Do you really not know the difference between a vampire and a zombie?"
"No time to argue son," Nathan said. "We have to get the safe place!"
As Nathan came to a stop sign, he and Jamie looked out the window to see Brooke and Julian being chased by vampire versions of Jude and Davis.
"Oh no!" Nathan screamed. "Jude and Davis are zombies now."
"Vampires!" Jamie shouted.
"Stop correcting me or you're grounded!" Nathan shouted.
Jamie rolled down the window.
"Aunt Brooke, Uncle Julian!" Jamie shouted. "Get in the car."
"We won't make it!" Brooke shouted. "The zombies are gaining on us!"
"Vamp… Oh never mind!" Jamie shouted.
Julian threw himself in front of Jude and Davis.
"No!" Brooke screamed.
"Save yourself Brooke!" Julian screamed as Jude and Davis began biting him. "I love you!"
Brooke ran and got into Nathan's car. Once Brooke was in the car, Nathan sped off. Brooke began to cry.
"Oh Julian!" Brooke sobbed. "It should've been me who sacrificed myself to the zombies!"
"Vampires!" Jamie shouted. "Wait, where's Sophia?"
"The zombies took her captive!" Brooke sobbed.
"Oh no!" Jamie screamed. "We have to save her!"
"Who started this zombie apocalypse?" Nathan asked.
"Vampire apocalypse," Jamie said.
"Shut up," Nathan said.
"It was Beth!" Brooke shouted. "Beth is the head zombie!"
"What should we do?" Jamie asked.
"Wake up Jamie," Nathan said.
"What?" Jamie asked.
"Wake up Jamie," Nathan said again.
Jamie woke up in his room and saw Nathan standing at his bedside.
"Daddy," Jamie said.
"Your mother made pancakes," Nathan said.
"Okay," Jamie said getting up.
As Jamie got up, he was shaking.
"Are you okay?" Nathan asked.
"I just had a weird dream," Jamie said. "Mom, Jude, and Davis were vampires and you, Aunt Brooke, and I had to get to the 'Safe Place'. Oh, and everyone else kept saying that the vampires were zombies."
"Sounds like your Uncle Lucas let you watch too many movies," Nathan said.
"True," Jamie said as he and Nathan walked out of his room. "I had a fun summer. I have so many stories about the fun things Lucas and I did."
"Can you start by explaining your hair?" Nathan asked.
"You mean you don't like it?" Jamie asked.
"I like it," Nathan said. "I just want to know why you did that to your hair."
As Jamie and Nathan walked into the kitchen, Sophia, who was sitting by Haley at the kitchen table, greeted Jamie.
"Hey stranger," Sophia said.
"I'm so sorry I didn't come and see you last night," Jamie said. "My flight was delayed and I didn't get home until late."
"That's okay," Sophia said. "You can make it up to me later, if you know what I mean."
"Hello," Nathan said. "Parents are present."
Jamie and Sophia shared a hug and a kiss.
"I'm so happy to see you again," Sophia said.
"And I'm so happy that vampires aren't holding you hostage," Jamie said.
"What?" Sophia asked confused.
"Nothing," Jamie said.
