Untold

"I can't believe that stupid hick just decided to leave without talking to us first!" Nick growled as he paced around the room that he, Coach, and Rochelle were sharing at the evac center.
Rochelle sighed as she sat down on one of the beds and looked at him.
"We've already gone over this a bunch of times before, Nick. He probably just didn't want to be around us anymore." Rochelle replied sadly.
"What do you mean by 'us' baby girl? If I remember correctly he was ok with me. He really had a problem when Nick was lookin after you instead of him." Coach told her before looking at Nick, "Especially when he really needed yer help, Nick when he was bleedin in the helicopter and all you were doin was takin care of Ro. How do you think he felt when he was hurtin and we all knew that Ro would have been just fine waitin a few minutes?" Coach glared at him.
Nick looked at him annoyed.
"I didn't know that he was that hurt!"
Coach snorted.
"Boy, you mean to tell me that you hadn't noticed that after he was attacked by a hunter AND a tank and he was clutching tightly to his bleeding chest that you failed to notice how much blood he was losin?"
"I was a bit preoccupied carrying Rochelle into the helicopter since she couldn't walk without almost passing out!" Nick replied angrily.
"He was right behind you, Nick! He needed you to help him!"
"Well if you noticed then why didn't you, Coach?" Nick asked glaring at him.
"Don't you dare turn this on me! First off I was coverin yer asses and second the moment y'all made it into the helicopter I had to heal!" Coach growled, "Besides that ain't the point. He wanted YOU to help him not me. He was almost beggin you to help him first!"
Rochelle looked at Coach and then to Nick feeling really guilty that she was the cause of all of this.
"I'm sorry if I had just…"
"You don't have anything to apologize for, Rochelle. Coach here is just being a fucking asshole!" Nick said.
"Who the hell was the one who treated Ellis like shit when he decided that after you helped her he didn't want any help from you? From what it looks like to me he finally figured out how much of a fuckin bastard you really are, Nick."
Nick started to say something but Coach cut him off.
"He ain't comin back, Nick and it's about time you got that message! It's only been about two weeks since we've been here and he still hasn't come back. Did you really think that he was gunna stay with us with the way you've treated him?"
Nick clenched his fists tightly at his side before turning to look away.
"Is there any way of getting in contact with him?" Rochelle asked looking at Coach.
Coach sighed.
"I don't know and even if we could what good would that do? Nick would just start cussing him out or sumethin. That's what I never got about the boy. He'd give Nick his health kit, pain pills, and help him out whenever he needed it and all Nick did in return was help you, baby girl."
"What are you talkin about, Coach?" Nick asked turning back to look at him.
"It figures that you don't pay any attention. Ellis cared about you enough that he would make sure that you were looked after first before him. The look in his eyes when he saw that you were hurt or in trouble it was like he was startin to panic. You may not care about him, but he sure as hell did care about you."
Rochelle winced having had no idea that Ellis had felt that strongly about Nick. Coach sighed.
"What's really sad is how much you flaunted your feelings towards Rochelle in front of him."
Nick glared angrily at him while Rochelle looked simply horrified.
"How many times do I have to fuckin say it? I'm not in love with Rochelle!"
"I don't even want to think about it!" Rochelle shuddered.
"Y'all may say you don't like each other but yer actions say a completely different story." Coach told them, "If y'all didn't like each other y'all would have helped Ellis and me out a bit more instead of just each other."
"Coach, Rochelle and I just happened to be closer to each other when one of us was in trouble. I can't believe that just because of that you think we're…"
"Ellis thinks so too and if more then one person thinks its true then it probably is." Coach replied.
"I'm getting sick and tired of always having to say that I don't like her that way!" Nick sighed getting really frustrated.
"Coach, if there's anyone that I like its Francis." Rochelle told him.
Nick looked down at her horrified.
"You can't be serious. That biker guy is a fucking scumbag!"
"It's not really your place to tell me who I should and shouldn't like!" Rochelle said glaring at him.
"Rochelle, I happen to know that he's not a good guy." Nick told her.
"You don't even know him, Nick! Just talking to him once and I already know that he's a better person then you are!" Rochelle replied angrily as she stood up.
Coach shook his head as he walked out of the room.
"That was only a couple of hours before the place was swarmed with the infected. It took awhile before Ceda finally managed to move us to a different location, but not before Ro was killed." Coach sighed rubbing the back of his neck.
"Well, it's nice to know that she at least thought I was better then that asshole!" Francis said glaring at Nick who was looking around for the infected or items that would come in handy.
Louis sighed.
"Francis, I think there's more to it then that. I don't think she necessarily chose you over him."
"Actions speak louder then words." Zoey said.
"So, uh, you liked her too?" Ellis asked turning his head to look at Francis.
"Hell yeah, man. The first time I saw her I knew that…Zoey what was that for?" Francis rubbing the back of his head and turned to glare at her.
Zoey shook her head and looked at him sadly.
"Don't you think it's a bit late for that speech of yours, Francis? She's gone."
Francis sighed.
"Please don't remind me."
Ellis looked at him sadly and then turned his attention back to Nick still listening to Coach as he continued.
"Anyway I think Ceda didn't think that the infection would hit there in New Orleans so they weren't prepared on moving us to a safer place. By the time they found out what was happenin it was already too late for a lot of people." Coach said.
"Coach, what's happening?" Rochelle yelled as she ran into the room and looked at him wide eyed.
The ground was shaking and Coach was already about to run out of the room.
"It's the infected, baby girl! Looks like they finally made their way all the way here!" Coach told her.
Both of them ran out of the room into a mess of people who were running around screaming (few of them not panicking as they rushed to grab guns).
"Where's Nick?" Coach asked as they pushed their way through the crowd.
"He's at the entrance! We felt the ground start shaking so he told me to come get you! Its tanks isn't it?" Rochelle yelled feeling extremely nervous.
"Quite a few of them leadin a hell of a lot of zombies!"
They finally made their way to where the weapons were being held and they quickly grabbed an axe and combat shotguns.
"I thought we were finally safe!" Rochelle cried as they started making their way towards the entrance of the center.
"Doesn't look like the zombies were done tryin to kill us!" Coach said.
After a few minutes they finally saw Nick and some of the other survivors shooting at some of the tanks that were running towards them.
"Shit, back up!" Nick yelled as a tank hit a car sending it right through the front doors of the building killing a few of the survivors who didn't move in time.
"Nick!" Rochelle screamed as she ran towards him, "You alright?"
Nick nodded.
"Yeah, but we need to find another way out unless you want to try and deal with this many tanks!" Nick replied his eyes glued on how many tanks that were running to get at them.
"Holy…" Rochelle's eyes went wide.
"Hell no, boy! We ain't goin this way! C'mon there should be another exit on the other side of this buildin!" Coach yelled.
"I can still hear the sounds of all those people screamin. There must have been twenty tanks in front of the center maybe more headed into the city. Who knows how many regular infected and other specials there were also. I know there was too many to count." Coach said.
"How did you guys get out of there alive?" Zoey asked.
Ellis had turned completely white.
"I thought the back way was the best and only option we had, but it turned out to be just as bad as going through the front. Now that I look back on it though there was no way that all of us would have made it out alive. That doesn't make me feel better though and I'm still surprised Nick and I made it." Coach replied.
Ellis swallowed.
"What happened next, Coach?" Ellis asked.
"Well we weren't the only ones who thought going out the back way was better so we ended up followin other survivors who were makin their way towards it. I heard them sayin sumethin about Ceda wantin us to move to the other side of the city seein as the infected were all on the side we were at. This was a load of bullshit since there was no way we could outrun a bunch of zombies. I guess the only reason why we made it was cause there was too many people that the infected just went after whoever was closest. We thought that the infected were coming in one direction which was the biggest mistake we ever made. The infected were smart and were tryin to surround as much of the city as they could before any of us could get away."
"See? I told you Ceda wasn't doing shit about the infection!" Nick yelled as he pulled out a molotov and tossed it behind him lighting a few tanks and tons more zombies on fire.
"This ain't the time for 'I told you so's', Nick! Just run and shoot!" Coach yelled.
"In case something happens I just want to say that I'm glad I met you guys!" Rochelle cried shooting at zombies that were rushing at them from the sides.
"Nothing is going to happen, Rochelle! We're all going to make it out of here!" Nick replied.
"Y'all I think that's where we're supposed to go!" Coach yelled as he watched a few people make it inside the mall.
"Oh thank god…" Rochelle said.
Just as they thought they were in the clear Nick suddenly screamed making Rochelle turn her head. She watched in horror as Nick was being dragged back towards a couple of tanks and a bunch of zombies.
"NICK!" Rochelle screamed.
Author's note: The reason why this chapter is so late is because I was waiting on at least one review for my last chapter which didn't happen so I ended up being lazy and not only that I had a mood swing and I got depressed about the NickxEllis pairing that I almost didn't want to continue this story. Basically I had the time I just wasn't feeling inspired until now. Rochelle's really getting to me to the point where I have myself convinced that Nick likes her and she likes him and I know it's just a game but I can't help but feel mad . This is what's good about the first game because I don't like any couple as much as I do with Nick and Ellis. I don't care who helps me as long as I'm being helped. I think I'm going crazy with NickxEllis that if I don't find something else to distract me then I'll constantly be mad and kill Rochelle. I don't hate her I just hate the fact that Nick has to help everybody out especially her. I didn't like any of the songs in season 7 of One Tree Hill except for like two that don't go with the story, but I did like quite a few in season 6. One Tree Hill Season 6-I Want Something That I Want By Grace Potter and Bethany Joy Galeotti, Save You By Matthew Perryman Jones, You Found Me By The Fray, Angel By Kate Voegele, Wedding Dress By Matt Nathanson, Can't You See By Marshal Tucker, Manhattan From The Sky By Kate Voegele, Never Say Never By The Fray, 99 Times By Kate Voegele, All In My Head By Nick Lachey, and Sweet Silver Lining By Kate Voegele.
