Phoenix
There is a whirlwind of emotions rising from the depths inside of me. Every few seconds Bowie squeezes my hand, grounding me and bringing me back down to earth.
There are moments I want nothing more than to curl up in a ball and cry for all the circumstances we’ve been dealt, but I can’t let them win. There are other moments I want to grab the pocketknife from Ike’s sock and stab Melissa in her big brown eyes.
They didn’t have to take us, but there is some kind of ulteriormotive they have that we are not privy to. They are keeping their plans close to the chest.
Phoenix
The idea that there will be a day when I have to move past the thought of losing Cullen crushes me. He has been my everything since the moment he rescued me. And even though I’ve had wandering eyes since I woke up from the coma, it doesn’t mean I care any less about him. It doesn’t mean my love for him has wavered.
They say you never know what you have until it’s gone…
Breathing in deeply, I choke on the idea of never seeing him again. Never touching him again. He’s been my savior, my strength for so long it’s hard to envision what life would look like without him in it.
Francesca
There is a pit in my stomach when I awake. By my calculations, today is the day. I feel like a traitor waking up alongside Ike and acting as if everything is normal. Our version of normal that is.
“Hey,” Ike says softly, smoothing my hair out of my eyes. “Are you okay?”
I blink slowly, attempting to slow my rapidly beating heart. It’s so loud he may be able to hear it. “As okay as yesterday and the day before.”
He gives me a small smile and then his lips form into a tight line. He looks like he is fighting back tears.
“Hey,” I grab his face in my hands. “Life sucks but it sucks a little less with you.”
Cullen
Outside there is a handful of the walking dead. We work silently taking them out one by one. The skin on their bodies sags and they snap their mouths open and closed.
“Seventy-three,” Malachi says under his breath, but I don’t need to ask. Once he told me it was the number of biters he’d killed. I asked him what the point of counting was, and he told me it was because they were once human beings.
A biter comes lunging at me, dragging his foot, and chomping at the bit. Because of his proximity, I stab one of my throwing knives into his head taking him down. Out of the corner of my eye I see another biter approaching but this one I’m able to take down with a toss of one of my knives. It hits the dead girl in the eye, and she falls to the ground.
Phoenix
We’ve been handling Ike with kid gloves in some way or another for far too long. When I lost Rian, I was a wreck for months…until one day things just got easier. It’s been blow after blow after blow to Ike and he hasn’t had the proper time to process it. Unfortunately, in this kind of a world, time is not a luxury we have. It’s sickening to say it but maybe everything happens for a reason. Maybe we are here on this island for Ike to get the breather he needs and rebuild himself from the inside out. Maybe this is what I needed to know that I can survive without Cullen. It’s not something I’d ever want but dwelling on the past isn’t going to do me any favors. The only thing we can do is try to stay positive as Bowie so annoyingly pointed out and continue to move forward. If Cullen is alive, we will find each other again.
