Vivienne’s breathing had slowed. Each breath sounded wet. Selena had visions of her sister’s organs being corrupted by the zombie virus. She couldn’t think of anything worse than seeing Vivienne die in front of her and then rise from the dead.
Adam and Nicky descended the stairs. Adam’s pipe was gooey with red stuff again, which meant they must’ve run into more zombies.
“Is the girl all right?” Selena asked.
Adam sat on the floor beside her, the pipe disappearing from sight. “Rachel’s okay, but it was a close call. A zombie was hiding in the shower.”
Selena shivered.
“Not just any zombie,” Nicky said. “The biggest fattest f-”
“But we killed him.” Adam cut him off.
“Killed him again, you mean.”
Selena studied Adam’s face. He had dark shadows under his eyes, but he was still painfully handsome. She wanted to rub her hand across the stubble on his cheeks. Their eyes met and a slow smiled spread across his face. He reached for her hand.
“But Rachel’s okay?” Selena asked.
Adam stroked the back of her hand with his thumb. “Physically she’s not hurt, but I think it’s been an exceptionally trying night for her, especially after the incident at the Wooden Barrel with her foster father. She’ll be all right. Cage is upstairs with her now.”
Selena smiled. The teenagers were cute. From what she’d overheard from Nicky, Rachel and Cage had only met tonight. Obviously, they were attracted to each other – anyone could see that - but it was the closeness between them that gave Selena a sense of hope during this horrible night. The intimacy between them in such a short span of time was unique. Rachel was tough, but broken at the same time. Then you had Cage sweeping in to the rescue whenever she needed him. It was romantic how he’d dropped everything and ran to save her….
Selena sighed. She sounded like one of her romance novels. Who knew? Maybe people who survived terrible ordeals together grew closer in shorter spans of time. It was the case with Rachel and Cage and, it seemed to be the case with her and Adam.
Selena leaned against Adam’s shoulder. She could feel his hard muscles under his shirt. She felt safe with him. He’d saved her countless times tonight. After the initial attack at Adam’s home, he drove across town to her. She didn’t care what anyone said about dating for a few weeks, that was love and she was one hundred percent certain she was madly in love with Adam Guerra.
Nevertheless, true to the story of her life, once something went well, it crashed and burned to the ground. Of course she’d find the man of her dreams on the eve of the end of the world. Funny how things happened like that.
“Can you hand me the laptop?” Adam asked Nicky.
Rachel and Cage descended the stairs, both of them wearing the same clothes, but with wet hair and clean skin. Selena envied their shower, but it would have to wait. She wouldn’t leave
