51: Luke

I smiled as I dragged the sleeping bag over. I really was myself again and it felt amazing. No longer hiding my face. No longer faking my voice, my laugh, my smile. No longer being treated like a slave. And it was all because of her. I practically could give her my life and I would still owe her big time. The least I could do was this. I slipped the sleeping bag over her shoulders. She looked up and smiled. "Go rest. I'll get everyone up when the sun is fully up." I said, taking her gun-knife thingy.

"Alright. Thanks." She said as she got up and stumbled over to the sleeping bags.

I watched as she curled up in one and began sleeping immediately. I kept watch now. Her gun knife thing right in my hands. I wasn't exactly eager to be doing this but anything for her. Still I didn't have an idea of what is do if I saw a zombie coming. Scream? Probably. I laughed a bit at myself. Like she said there is a first for everything.

The sunrise was finally done I'd say about a hour later. I got up and shook Paul. "Ugh," He groaned.

"Get up Paul." I grunted.
"Fine." He mumbled and sat up.
"Why am I awake first!?" He complained. "Simon, dude, wake up. Like wake up now." He said as he shook Simon.
"Really. Really Paul." Simon said as he sat up and yawned.
"I'll wake Megan up in a bit. Go eat. Save some for us though." I ordered.
"No problem." Simon nodded and dragged Paul, who was still trying to sleep, over to the food.

Now this I was use to. Waking up at the crack of dawn. Ordering Paul and Simon to get up and eat. But now it was only them. No Crowley. No Jacob. No bosses. All the food we could eat. I was still the slave leader in their eyes, but now we were free, and Megan was now someone we all looked up to.

Speaking of Megan, I looked over at her. Her eyes were closed loosely and her hair was spread around her. She even looked pretty when she slept. I sighed. She would be mad if I woke her up later than well now. And we probably wouldn't have much left to eat. Paul was a pig when it comes to food. I gently leaned forward and shook her lightly.

"Hmmmm?" She blinked her eyes open and slowly got into a sitting position. "Morning." She yawned."Morning." I replied back. "We should go get some food. Paul eats a lot." I said with a smile, gesturing to Paul who was now wide awake and digging in. I nodded and we walked over and sat down and began to eat. "See we saved you some food!" Simon said with a laugh, gesturing to the pile.
