The words "I'm ready" had been replaying in Zeds mind since he heard them straight from Addison's perfect lips. After she said that she was ready, he had to make sure. He asked her if she was positive so many times he was certain that she was going to change her mind, but she hadn't. He vowed that come next weekend when she came over he was going to have everything perfect for her. He would kick out Bonzo, he would light some candles and he would make sure both their phones were turned off. Should he shave down there? No that was crazy, she had already seen him. Nobody would cock block him from this.

The week seemed to drag on for him and when Saturday finally arrived he was bouncing on his heels waiting at the front door. She had chosen to drive to his house; he didn't like her out walking around Zombietown without him. She was his and he would be damned if another Zombie tried to snatch her up. She knocked softly and before she even brought her hand away from the wooden door he was opening it. She had her cheer bag, packed with spare clothes, and a smile on her face. "Hi." She giggled.

He reached out and yanked her inside, slamming her against the door after he closed it. He caged her against it with his arms and brought his face down to hers. "You are so delicious." He growled before capturing her lips with his own. She giggled again into his kiss.

"Calm down tiger." She said pushing him off her a little bit. "We still need to go get something to eat." He pulled himself off of her with a groan and followed her as she went to put her bag away.

"But Addy…" he whined. "I was ready to go.."

She put her bag on top of his dresser and opened it to change from her cheer uniform, but Zed grabbed her hand to stop her. "Wait…I uh…"

"What? I'm ready to go so I need to get changed."

"Actually, can you leave it on? I kind of always wanted to do it. Strip your uniform off you I mean." She smirked and nodded her head.

"Sure Zed. Let's just go eat. Practice was brutal and I'm starving."

"Me too." he added. "Starving for you." she laughed and grabbed his hand, pulling him towards the door. "I know Mr. Zombie, you want to eat the human."

"Correction,devour the human." He growled.

The more the school year went by and people saw how easily that zombies were integrating into the campus, the more shops and restaurants were opening their doors for zombies. Some places were even hiring zombies to do jobs other than cleaning.

They were sitting in a Mexican restaurant that was now serving Brain Burritos and Addison could swear that everyone who looked their direction knew what they would be doing later. She was as excited and as nervous as she should be with losing her virginity. She heard it would hurt and she knew firsthand how big Zed was. The first time she gave him a blow job and she came face to face with him, she had wondered if it was all Zombies and she learned later that no..it was not all zombies. It was a Zed thing.

After telling him she was ready, she had done what any curious woman who was about to sex for the first time would do…she googled it. She knew the basics of it already, what she was interested in was different people's experiences. She knew Bree hadn't had sex before and she didn't feel comfortable enough asking Eliza. Trashy romance novels were no help. Most of those had the girls being ready to go at the drop of a hat and they felt no pain. Something she was sure she would most definitely be feeling.

Their food arrived and Zed immediately dug in, taking a large bite out of his brain burrito. Addison took modest bites of her cheese enchilada. "I don't see how you can eat that. I mean I know you're a zombie and zombies have a taste for brains but they have other flavors out there."

"You should totally try it Addison. You'll change your mind." He turned the burrito so he was holding towards her, expecting her to take a bite. She scrunched her face and backed away a little further into her side of the booth. "Um, I don't think so."

"Come on." he wiggled it in her face, which didn't make it any more appealing to her. It flopped around and oozed a little juice from the top which was not appealing. Rolling her eyes, she leaned forward and took a hesitant sniff. It didn't smell totally revolting so she indulged him. She took the tiniest bite off the tip. It wasn't awful but it wasn't something she ever wanted to eat again. It was the thought of it being brain flavored.

"I think I'm ok with what I have." She took a few sips of water to try and get the taste from her mouth but the longer she sat the more the flavor changed in her mouth. It started to vaguely taste of old gym sneakers. "I'm sorry. I can't. I have to go and wash my mouth in the bathroom." She excused herself and went to the restroom to use her emergency mouthwash she kept in her purse.

She used the restroom and cleansed her mouth of the foul brain burrito and made her way back to the table. She was stopped short however when she noticed some else sitting on her side of the booth. A vaguely familiar girl. She walked closer to the table, slowly trying to remember where she had seen this person or rather zombie before.

The girl was sitting with her elbows propped on the table and her head resting in her hands. She had a look on her face that suggested she was flirting with Zed. The rooftop. That's where she knew the girl from. She had come over and talked to her and suggested she knew who Zed was, but who was she.

Fully approaching the table Addison was relieved to see Zed was definitely not flirting back. He was sitting straight with his arms folded across his chest and an angry look on his face. "And here is the lovely human now. Oh," she spoke and noticed Addison's outfit, "and a cheerleader. How very…...Seabrook." She spat crinkling her nose.

"Oh. Um...hi." Addison said. Zed looked up and instantly changed to a look of relief. "Didn't we meet...at the rooftop?" The other girl's smirk curled into a very deviant smile.

"Wait. You already met each other?" Zed was panicking.

"Why yes Zed. We did. I'm Zarah." This time she reached her hand out and shook Addison's.

"No!" He hollered standing from the table and grabbing Addison's hand. "We're leaving."

"Now now Zed, where are those delightful manners we both know you own?" She stood and grabbed Zed's other hand stopping them. He snatched his hand out of hers like it was burned.

"What do you want from me Zarah?" He was gripping Addison's hand so tightly she thought he would break the bones.

"I just wanted to be friends again Zed. Is that too much to ask for?" She put on a fake pout for about two seconds before her expression changed to that of shady.

"Yes. It is. Especially since you left me for Ezra and told me you would be the happiest fucking person in the universe to never see me again." Zed cursed, his eyes growing dark and veins taking over. Addison looked around in a panic, hoping no one else was going to notice that Zed's zombie was coming out. Luckily the other patrons seemed to be too wrapped up in their own conversations to notice two zombies fighting in the middle of the restaurant.

Zarah laughed. "Oh yeah I did say that didnt I." Zed shook his head and turned taking Addison with him who had to run to keep up with him. "I'll see you at school Zed!" She called out after him as they made their to the car. He was silent and brooding the entire way back to his house. Addison parked her car out front and decided it was time to talk.

"Do you want to talk about it Zed?" She unhooked her seat belt and turned to face him. He was staring straight out the window in front of him with his arms crossed and his leg was bouncing. She had never in the months since she met him, seen him this worked up over anything. He shook his head no, continuing to brood.

"Please Zed?" She reached her hand out to touch his shoulder and he shrugged her off turning to look out the passenger window instead. It hurt. Not physically but it hurt her feelings to know that she was trying to get him to open up to her and he was shooting her down. She had come over with the intention of giving everything she had to him and here he sat, refusing to give back. She sighed and turned back to face the front, tears threatening to spill over.

Zed noticed. Sighing he ran his hands through his hair and turned to face her this time. "I'm sorry Addy it's just that...demon…knows how to dig into me." He reached down and grasped her hand. "We were friends first and then dated all through highschool and she was so different back then." Addison sat, grasping his hand back, ready to listen. "Something in her changed senior year. I don't know if it had to do with all the human zombie integration but…" he trailed off trying to think of what to say. "She hates humans. I never asked her why. I'm sure it had to do with her parents own hate of them. Anyway, you heard what was said. Right after graduation she left me for an older Zombie. Ezra. They ran off to California together. She knew how liberal they could be and thought she would be accepted. I guess the grass must not have been as green as she expected."

He still wouldn't look addison in the eye so she brought her free hand up to cup the side of his face, turning him to look at her. "I'm so sorry Zed." A single tear slipped down her cheek. He brought his own hand up to cup her face in return, wiping the tear away with his thumb. "Sometimes.." she started, "people do think the grass is greener on the other side of the fence, and then they get over there and realize that it's greener because it's over a septic tank." He laughed at her joke.

"Gar Gar Gazar." He said staring into her blue eyes, rubbing his thumb across her cheek.

"What does that mean?" she asked. Starting right back into this brown ones.

"I love you."

She busted out into a smile and lunged forward, throwing her arms around his neck and crashing her lips into his. "I Gar Gar Gazar you too!" she laughed with joy. She smashed her lips to his once again and it didn't take long at all to get heated. She moved herself into his lap in the passenger seat and ground herself into him.

"Mmmhmm." he moaned into her mouth before breaking away. "Can we please go inside now?" he growled in his deep zombie voice. He didn't wait for a reply. He opened the car's door and carried her right up the front steps of his porch. He sat her down for just a minute while he fiddled with getting the front door unlocked but once it was she had jumped right back onto him.

Thank god his bedroom was closest to the front door. If he had Bonzo's room on the other side of the living room, they wouldn't have made it past the sofa. He wanted to savor taking her clothes off, maybe let her do a little strip tease for him, but that's not what was happening now. Now he was practically ripping her uniform off of her. He laid her back onto his bed and took his own shirt off before admiring her.

She was left sitting in the middle of his bed with nothing on and god was she pretty. She was beautiful, gorgeous, delicious. Words really can't describe the way she looked. She gave a look that melted his insides and crooked her finger, gesturing him over. He crawled over her and took her mouth in a searing kiss.

She moaned into his mouth and he growled in response. As badly as he wanted to jump right into it he knew he couldn't. He had to work up first, maybe it would take a little of the pain that was to follow away.

He started to kiss his way down her body, taking a familiar path that he knew all too well. Thoughts of Zarah were trying to weasel their way into his head. Seeing her had brought on a flood of memories like being in a position similar to this. Kissing his way down her body. Touching her most intimate of places. But none of that compared to Addison.

Having sex with Zarah was like crawling into a cold damp cave for the night. Somewhere you would go if you were desperate for shelter. Being with Addison was the total opposite. It was like laying in a field of wildflowers with the sun shining down on your face. A place that you never wanted to leave because it brought total relaxation.

Zed reached the most delicious place in the world and thoughts of Zarah quickly left. He made quick work on her with his mouth. Sucking her clit and using his fingers to try and stretch her open a little wider to accommodate him. She was getting close to a release when Zed brought his mouth to her neck under her ear. "Come for me baby." He continued the use of his fingers on her. He turned his hand so that his fingers curled up and used his thumb to rub her sensitive nub.

"Growl into my ear Zed." She moaned. He took in a deep breath and let out the guttural noise he knew she liked and that was it. She was coming undone under him. He removed his fingers and kissed her.

She hooked her legs around him and fumbled with his button and zipper. "That's enough of that I'm ready. I need to see what it feels like to have you inside me. Do you have a condom, or how does this work with you being a zombie? Can humans get pregnant by zombies?" she asked trying to slide his pants down.

"I have no fucking idea but I'm not risking it." he kicked his pants the rest of the way off taking his boxers with them and leaned over to grab a condom from his bedside table. "There isn't enough studies on human zombie relationships to know the consequences."

He rolled it on and put himself into position, taking a second to pause at her entrance. "Are you sure Addy, it's going to hurt. And I don't want to do that to you." She leaned up and kissed him and wrapped her legs around his waist. "I'm fucking positive Zed. Just...go slow."

He kissed her and slowly began to enter, pushing his head past her entrance. Immediate regrets. It felt like someone had a blowtorch to her vagina and it was about to tear apart. She gripped his shoulders and dug her nails in. "Oh my god you have to stop." she hollered. He had barely made it a third of the way in. "Are you ok?" He asked about to pull out.

"Wait." she squeezed him with his legs. "Don't take it out." she shuddered, "Just don't move."

"Uh, I got to do something Addy. I can't stay like this." She grimaced. She knew he couldn't just stay like this, and she knew she couldn't quit now either. "Ok." she nodded her head, sweat beading up on her brows. "Ok go."

Slowly he started to move back in and it hurt just as much. She knew this was going to happen, logically it had to. She figured that if she could grin and bare it then maybe next time it wouldn't be as bad. And she so badly wanted there to be a next time. He continued to kiss her, moving down to her neck while he slowly entered in and out little by little. It felt like an eternity and when he finally pulled all the way out she breathed a sigh of relief. He sat up, ripped the condom off and stroked himself until he was coming onto her stomach.

He collapsed down next to her and snuggled into her. "Im so sorry Addison." he apologized.

"For what? You didn't do anything wrong."

"For hurting you." he pulled her closer to himself.

"Yeah, but next time it won't be as bad."

He sat himself up on his side with his elbow. "There's a next time?" he asked smiling.

"Yeah dummy. What did you think was gonna happen?" she giggled. The pain between her legs was already subsiding, just a mild ache now. He kissed her. "I love you."

"I love you too." she repeated. "Let's take a shower now."
