11 || To Be Human.
Bulchewski High School.Edward’s POV.“Babe!” Mabel threw her arms around me. “I was so worried about you.” She pulled away with a pout. “But you’re alive! I’m so happy.” She wrapped me in an even tighter hug. I suppressed the annoyance I felt and hugged her back. She didn’t do anything wrong, but I couldn’t help but feel irritated whenever she was around me.“Worried?” Caleb scoffed. “You didn’t care about him until a few minutes ago.” He muttered.I detached myself from her with a smile. “I am sorry for worrying you.”She sighed. “I understand you wanted to help that bit- Chloe, your sympathy is something I’ve always admired.” She said sweetly.“We admire what we don’t have.” Caleb piped up and I tried my best not to chuckle. She sent him a sharp glare and I used the distraction as an opportunity to step away from her.Chloe and Kira were with Jordan and Rachel, they were discussing in hushed voices while Kira rested on her sister. Chloe has been quiet but Kira was much more quiet,

12 || The Great Escape.
Bulchewski High School.Edward’s POV.This building was separated from the rest of the school buildings. It was also the closest to the fence and a straight path that takes you straight to the gate. The fence was made with solid blocks and it was quite high too but with cooperation, we could easily jump over.The only problem is, that there were too many uncertain factors. The first is, what awaits you at the other end and how do we move from there on? That’s why we decided to use the longer method, the straight path method. The plan was simple.We’d scout the path from the top floor to see how chaotic the whole place was. Thankfully, it was not as chaotic as we expected. Hunter and Michael were easily the strongest and fastest so they’d lead along with Chloe.I would be at the end along with Jordan and surprisingly Rachel. Kira and Betty who proved to be the weakest would be at the centre, protected from both sides. We’d tread carefully through the bushy path that leads to three key

13 || Worse Than Death.
Edward’s POV.She hit my arm for the umpteenth time with a sharp glare. “Why the hell did you think it was okay to die?” She whisper-yelled.Because I was reminded of my darkest moments until I saw you. I thought to myself as I drank in every feature of her lovely face. Although she had a scowl at the moment, she was still beautiful, almost too beautiful.Right after the bus passed I told Caleb and Mitch to go to the gatekeeper's house and rejoined them after locking the gate. I had missed being breakfast for the swarm by a mere second. Whenever I was late and had to sneak in, I’d follow through his place.If my thoughts were free of the trauma my mum had put me through and I planned to live, then I would have remembered earlier. But at least, I remembered, no matter how late. Chloe had been hitting the same spot since we reunited with them and reprimanding me as quietly as she could when mad.She figured out what I was previously up to when I told her goodbye. She hit the spot again,

14|| Resolve.
Chloe’s POV.The bus was quiet as we drove into the street of the police station, it was a mess. There were cars left open, dropped bags and forgotten shoes, papers and overturned motorcycles, blood stains and torn ligaments from what used to be people.It was a no brainer, the infection had reached this place. It made my heart pound with fear at the countless worst-case scenarios that passed through my mind, none of which were in our favour. My hand gripped the rail tightly till my knuckles turned white.I pushed the saliva down the huge lump that had formed in my throat as the bus slowed to a stop. “You need to see this,” Michael said in a low tone, his voice was cold but the lingering disbelief drew my attention.I forced my quivering legs up. They were numb beneath me as they trudged to the front of the bus. A whimper escaped my lips as I took in the scene before us. There were several grown-ups now turned, lined in front of the police station.Upon hearing the sound of the bus, t
