Chapter Fifteen

Kevin paddled on, thinking about the sailboat he had seen, anxious to get to Frankfort. With each stroke of the paddle, the distant Frankfort lighthouse—now only a mile away—grew larger. But in the midst of his excitement, he began feeling intensely lonely. He was on the verge of possibly reaching a safe harbor and finding survivors—decent human beings—but there was no one to share it with. It was just Kevin, alone in all the world.

He scanned the beach, marveling at being the only person on the beach within seven miles. But wait—there was a figure standing on the beach. Was it a survivor or a zombie? As he paddled closer, it became obvious that it was a woman. A nude woman, sunning herself. She sat on a beach chair near the water’s edge, her hands clasped behind her head, her body turned to take full advantage of the sun. Her flawless breasts—no tan lines—cast shadows on her torso. As Kevin drew nearer, she demurely turned her face his direction, opened her eyes and smiled. Then she reached back and pulled a pair of white shorts and a navy blue shirt out of a small tote bag and pulled them on, not in any hurry and without turning away from him. If anything, she seemed to deliberately take her time putting on her clothes. Once she finished buttoning the blouse, she stood up and waved, smiling. Kevin started paddling again, his heart beating faster, excited to see an apparently friendly survivor! Even so, he was cautious and on guard. As he got nearer, she stood at the water’s edge and motioned for him to come closer. Curiosity overruled his wariness, and he paddled to the beach, grounding it on an area of sand with minimal rocks and pebbles.

“Well, hello!” she said, still smiling broadly. Kevin was trying to contain his excitement. Other than Doc, until now he hadn’t seen any friendly survivors. She appeared healthy and her body language was relaxed. She appeared to be in her mid-forties with a healthy tan and honey-blonde hair. She had a voluptuous body, feminine and curvaceous. Kevin had to force himself not to stare. “I’ve had interesting things wash up on the beach before, but not a live human being . . . not lately, anyway,” she said.

Kevin jumped out of the canoe and dragged it farther up the beach. He walked toward her rapidly, feeling the Petoskey stone bounce against his thigh as he walked. “You’re alive! You’re not a zombie! I can’t believe it! You’re practically the only human I’ve seen since October! Do you live in Frankfort? Are there others? How have you stayed alive?!” As they came together, he held out his hand. “Sorry if I seem overly excited, it’s just . . . ” He cleared his throat. “Let me start over. I’m Kevin.”

“Now let’s not stand on ceremony,” she said, drawing him into a hug. “There are too few of us left for formalities!” Her skin was warm from the sun and her tan calves were wet from the lake.
