Chapter 21: Bunker

Ding.Ding.Ding..that dreadful sound echoed throughout the place. I had completely forgotten about it because I happened to be in the presence of Namjoon. Once again our eyes met but instead of stars,danger and fear engulfed them. We both knew what to do. The warmth of his hands enclosed unto mine and our fingers interlocked as we ran seeking a hiding place. Survival mode took over and I put my feelings aside. My mind drifted to George. Where was he? He must be worried,I hope nothing happens to him. He's like a toddler who needs guidance,24/7.

He leads me into the nearest hiding place,..... an underground bunker. Really? Unluckily or maybe unluckily we were the only ones there. With his strong hands he closed the door shut as we climbed down the metal steps. We were surely safe in here but wait.. ' George.. George is out there without me. We've gotta look for him, no I've gotta look for him!' I say hurriedly. My arms reach out to unlock the stainless steel door but he swats it away and pushes me back. ' DO YOU WANNA GET US KILLED!' He whisper shouts back at me, suddenly I'm scared of this version of Namjoon, his survival mode.' I'm sure he's capable,it's better than endangering him and everyone else by walking around freely looking for him. THINK J . THINK!' His words felt like poison but I took it in and swallowed it down. He was right, I'd only be putting George in more danger. Anyways why am I so worried about him. A moment ago my mind was only full of Namjoon but George has completely bombarded it with thoughts of him only. What is this strange feeling, again?

It's quiet for a moment, awkwardness and silence begin to seep into the air. We stay there scared,anxious even angry waiting for the moments of IT'S presence to pass. If you ask me, I'm mad at the world. I really am. So many people got to live their life until old age with no problems at all. Zilch, nada, zero. But my generation,ME, we have to go through this pain and feel frightened each and every day because human eating creatures now roam the earth. I really can't take it anymore. It'd be better to die than live this apocalyptic world.

George's pov:

The same sound that sends shivers through my whole body rang out once again and my first instinct was to look for Joy. But..but she wasn't there. My whole body filled with sadness and worry. Where was she? Was she alright? I knew that if I continued to just stay still it would find me before I could find Joy. And man, I ain't dying today! I could only hope that Joy was somewhere safe as I found my own safe space in one of the bunkers along with a girl and boy. The door sealed shut behind us as the girl who seemed to be in charge locked in the code. She had a confident leader aura around her and her beauty and build could blow anyone away. Realising what I was doing I shaked my head vigorously getting the though of the girl out of head. How can I think about her when Joy is possibly out there alone. My head rises to see D.O's and the girl's confused faces checking me up and down. Wow. Wow George you continue to make yourself look weird in serious situations.
