1 Chapter 1

Jack POV

"Cindy" ,I whisper to the girl still snuggled into my chest. "We have to get moving" , I whisper. She groans ,unhappy. She's never been much of a morning person. Oh, I'm Jack. As I've already mentioned the girl in my arms is Cindy. She's 19 while I'm 20. Cindy has gingery red hair , blue eyes, enjoys comfy clothes (so sweat pants and oversized T-shirts mainly), she has a very fine fizzique and despite it not looking that way is well built. I have short black hair, green eyes , I have muscle but just don't show it off and I'm taller than Cindy. The two of us graduated together and have been dating for 4 years. But something happened after graduation. It was a normal day until...

*Flashback of 3 weeks ago*

I watched as Cindy went to receive her diploma. I already received mine. I'm so proud of her. She is really excited to become a doctor. I know that she'll be very busy in such a job but I love her and I'll happily support her. She has supported me with every exam I took on my way to receiving my diploma for physics and science. You see, I want to work in a lab. I love all the new things that can be discovered with science. Its exciting to me. I want to help people with my discoveries. Cindy waves at me happily, her smile screaming excitement as she runs toward me.

She runs into my open arms and snuggles into my chest. "I can't believe we have finally graduated"

, I hear her muffled voice say with a soft giggle. I like seeing and hearing her happy voice. "I know what you mean, it feels slightly unreal", I say. "Exactly. Soooooo. Where we going to celebrate?", she asks now looking up at me. " We could go to Starbucks if you like", I say smiling and giving a wink. She giggles, "That would be great", she replies kissing my cheek. But before she pulls away I grab her closer ,by the cheek. I lean down and press my lips against hers. She kisses back and smiles into the kiss. I pull away and kiss her forehead then put my arm around her as we head to my car.

*after a 15 min drive*

We enter Starbucks and spot a open place for us to sit. In a bit we get our menus. The waiter brings them. Then we think loudly about our choices. "Can we have dessert too?", Cindy asks making puppy eyes. " Of course, we're celebrating aren't we?" She looks at me satisfied. "Okay ,I think I'll have ... a butter croissant ,a double chocolate chunk brownie with a tall caramel cocoa cluster frappucino", she says laying out her order. " Hhhmmm", I mumble, while looking at my menu. "I'll have a sausage and cheddar breakfast sandwich, chocolate croissant with a tall chai latte", I say. The waiter takes it all down and goes to give our orders.

After a while of waiting we receive all our orders. We then eat and drink. I accidentally get chocolate on my nose from the chocolate croissant making Cindy laugh hysterically. She always finds it funny when this happens to me. I pretend to be angry at her making a frowny face. She then kisses my nose and  licks the chocolate off. I smile, I like seeing her happy like this.

Suddenly.... we hear an alarm going off. Like one of those in the movies when people have to take shelter cause of the war. But there weren't any warplanes in the sky or any army tanks we could see from the window (and trust me that window has a wide view). But something we did see. Was a hoard of infected. Infected with what could possibly be a zombie virus. I never thought this day would actually come. I stopped believing it would sometime ago. But now its here.

Luckily I still had my preparation gear at my house. I grab Cindy's hand and we go to run out the back door. We make it to my car and drive to my house as fast possible. I run inside, Cindy goes to get her stuff while I get my stuff and gear. We get it all  together in 15 min tops. We pack it all in my car just as some of the hoard get closer to the car. We rush into the car. I start the engine and we drive away from the zombies. "Where are we gonna go?", she asks looking at me for answers. "I've got a place", I say.
