The group settled into the camp very quickly and got along with the other group very well. Most people where very friendly, but some where suspicious and kept to themselves for example Ed his Wife Carol, and his daughter Sophia, stayed on the other side of camp and didn't sit with them at the nightly bonfires they had. Most of the people welcomed them with opened arms and they merged to become one big group. One night as the adults (and older teenagers) sat around the bonfire mingling and chatting the kids and younger teenagers snuck away and sat on the edge of the camp, they had made their own bonfire and played board games most of the night. The kids consisted of Luke, Izzy, Carl, Kay, Michael. (Sophia wasn't allowed to come, due to the orders of her Dad)
"Anyone have any spooky stories?" Luke asked with a grin. Kay started telling a story about a man with a hook who comes to kill people in the night time.
Izzy sat on her back watching the stars, not really paying attention to Kay's story, when she heard a voice.
"So... What's your story?" The voice asked. She sat up and saw Carl staring at her with a grin, she sat up confused of why he was asking this.
"What do you mean?" She asked, he looked up into the sky and back at her, his blue eyes shining like diamonds, almost as if they lit up.
"What was your life like before the world turned to...?" He asked looking for the word.
"Shit?" Izzy suggested with a smile, he rolled his eyes but looked eager for her answer. She collapsed back onto her back and looked at the stars, he did the same.
"Well... I had a pretty normal life, a Mum, a Dad, they never argued, I considered us the perfect family. Everything was great... And then the outbreak started, I remember being at school in Maths I think... A walker came into the classroom and ate our teacher alive, everyone was screaming and I ran out. I found Katie and we drove home. Bryan was there waiting for us but we couldn't find Mum and Dad... Then everything else happened." She sighed closing her eyes and putting her arm over her face.
"So... How old are you?" Carl asked, trying to make small talk. She removed her arm and looked at him.
"Fourteen, turning fifteen in umm... six months?" She guessed. He nodded and laid back down.
"Well... How old are you then?" She asked him lifting herself up onto her elbows, he grinned.
"Fourteen... Turning fifteen in four months..." He laughed. She rolled her eyes and laid back down. By accident he rested his hand on her's, he expected her to shake him off, or yell at him or something, but instead she entwined her fingers with his, and they laid there on the grass, holding hands and watching the stars.
He was about to say something when they heard yelling from the adult's bonfire. The kids all got up to inspect.
"If you EVER think about hurting your wife or that kid again, there will be much more where that's from!" Shane yelled hitting and punching Ed until he was unconscious.
"Wow... He's InShane!" Brooke whispered to Andrea who smirked but shushed her.
"ED!" Carol cried running to her husband and dragging him into their tent to heal his wounds.
"Oh! Izzy there you are I was so worried about you and I-" She stopped noticing Izzy's hand that was still entwined with Carl's. Izzy followed her gaze and yanked her hand free, she hadn't even noticed.
Katie smirked and made kissey faces at the two. They both blushed and Izzy ran back to her tent, embarrassed. Katie smiled and cuddled closer to Bryan while Carl was almost red with embarrassment as he ran back to the other kids.
