Happy New Year everyone! I'm really sorry for the short chapter but its the best I could do with everything that's been going on.

After the long walk to Zombietown and even longer conversation he had with himself, he made up his mind. "If swiping left makes me 'go zom' maybe swiping right will hopefully turn me human," he said as he sat on his bed looking down at the band. "There's only one way to find out, this is gonna hurt," he said as he swiped his finger over the screen. The band let out a series of beeps and shocks.

"Mom, dad there's something I need to tell you guys," Addison said as she entered the kitchen. "What is it sweetie," Missy said from behind her computer. "I uh I got a date to homecoming," Addison said sheepishly. "Oh that's wonderful sweetie"

"Whos the lucky guy a football player I would assume," Dale said from his place on the couch.

"Yea he's a fullback, and he's,"

"Here?" Missy questioned as the doorbell rang

"mom trust me you do not want to open that door" Addison said trying to stop them.

"we wouldn't want to be rude," Missy said as she and Dale made their way towards the door.

"ok fine I guess I'll just come out and say it my date to the homecoming game is" Addison was cut off by her mother who had already opened the door.

"Cute" Missy said as the door opened revealing a more alive more human looking Zed.

"What, what did you do" Addison gasped from behind her parents. "What can I say, Addy, I clean up well, oh these are for you mayor Missy," Zed said as he handed her some pastel pink roses. "Thank you their lovely," Missy said smelling the bouquet

"So how do you know my daughter," Dale said stepping in front of MIssy.

"She's a cheerleader and I'm on the football team," Zed said smoothly.

"No way I used to play a little ball myself,"

"Really," Zed said excitedly.

"Really Addy tells me you're a fullback, ya know I was a fullback," Dale said confidently

"no way," Zed said

"umm would you like to come in, I'm sorry I don't think we got your name, " missy said as she opened the door wider.

"I would love to, and my name is,"

" uh you know what mom, we really should be going, uh we need to get ready for the game so if you'll just excuse us," Addison interrupted pulling Zed away from her door.

"Oh, well nice meeting you guys," zed said as he was pulled off of the Donnellys doorstep.

Addison was fuming, she liked Zed just the way he was, she didn't want him to change for her and it looked very painful. As soon as Addison knew she was as far away from her house as possible she pulled Zed into an Alleyway.

"WHAT IS WRONG WITH YOU. WHY WOULD YOU DO SOMETHING LIKE THIS. I love you the real you." Addison said with tear filled eyes.

"Addy I'm sorry I-" Zeds response was cut short when a series of shocks sent a wave of pain through him as he clutched his wrist and screamed out in pain.

"What, What's wrong," Addison said tears cascading down her face

"My, my Z-Band its- its" Zed tried to explain through gritted teeth.

with one final breath, the band ceased its attack on Zeds wrist and he slumped down against the wall pulling his knees to his chest. Addison sank down next to him.

"Zed, why did you do this" Addison said lifting his head up. the sun was glistening in Zeds tear-filled eyes.

"I've been hacking my Z-Band to win football games,'' Zed said looking away from her. "But why did you do it," Addison said turning his face towards her. "Because Addy, if I didn't zombies, wouldn't be accepted, I wouldn't have just met your parents and the football team wouldn't be having a perfect season," he said wiping his eyes with his sleeve.

"I did it because I love you, and so everyone could see that we aren't monsters, we're zombies." he continued, wiping Addison's eyes with the pad of his thumb. "But Zed I think you're amazing just being you, you shouldn't have to change for me or for anyone," she said wrapping her arms around the teenage zombie.

Zed returned the embrace, never wanting to let go. For a moment they were the only people on earth. That is until Addison's phone started buzzing in her pocket.
