You Can't Cuddle With A Zombie

Prologue

 "Morning!" 17 year-old Ella Masson sung as she came skipping down the stairs. Her mother smiled at her. 

"Someone's in a good mood," she noticed as Ella came in and kissed her on the cheek. 

"Of course I am! Eric is coming back today!" she squeaked, jumping up and down. Eric Martin was Ella's boyfriend. They've been dating since middle school. He went to a family vacation for the whole Summer in Florida. Ella jumped on the couch and grabbed her laptop, turning it on. She frowned at the screen. 

"Whats wrong, Hun?" Diana asked, noticing the worried and disappointed look on her face. 

"It says there's a hurricane coming down in Florida. What if they cancel Eric's flight and he can't came back?" Ella freaked, slamming the laptop closed. Diana laughed. 

"You worry too much," she said,before adding, "if you waited all summer, what's a couple of more days?" 

Ella rolled her eyes. She hated when her mom was right. Her mom poured coffee into her little pink mug and grabbed her keys. 

"I'm going to work. You got everything for school ready?" she asked, hurrying to the coat rack and grabbing her purse. 

"Yes mom. Now go, or you'll be late," Ella said, getting up and hugging her. 

"Ok, ok. I'll see you later." 

**************************************************************************** 

Ella tapped on her desk impatiently. She tried not to look at her phone, but every second or so she would quickly glace at it. why hasn't he called! She called him about an hour ago but he had to go through security check. But that was an hour ago! Ella tapped on the desk again. Urgh! she was about to go downstairs when her phone rang. ERIC! She jumped up and ran to the phone. 

"Hello," Ella said, trying to sound totally clam. 

"You picked up in a half a ring? Were you waiting by the phone?" Eric said, chuckling. 

"NO! I just happen to pass by when it rang," Ella lied, smiling. 

"Yeah, right," he said, totally unconvinced. 

"I missed you, is that a crime?" Ella said, rolling her eyes. Eric laughed. 

"I miss you too," his voice full of sincerity. She smiled. 

“I missed you more,” Ella teased, laying down on her bed. 

"No! I missed you more!" Eric argued back. 

"No, I did."

"No, I did."

"No, I did!"

"No, I did!"

"We get it. You both missed each other. Now move on before i puke!" said a voice in the background, annoying. 

"You're just jealous, Pete," Eric called out to him. Ella rolled her eyes. 

"Are you getting on the plane yet?" Ella asked. Half of her wanted him to say yes. She really did miss him. Everything was better when he was around. But the other half knew it could be risky. 

“Yeah, babe I'm getting on the airplane right now. I'll be there in like three hours- Pete go away!” Eric yelled, from the other line. Ella laughed.

“But Eric there's like a huge storm over there!” Ella panicked. Guess the worried half was bigger. 

“If it was a big deal they would have cancelled my flight, right?” he said, in a matter-of-fact voice. Ella shook her head, despite that fact that he couldn't see her. 

"Not unless you're pilot is suicidal!" Ella pointed out. 

"Ella, really?" Eric chuckled. She sighed. 

“You're right. I'm just worried that's all,” Ella confessed. She heard Pete laughed in the background.

“Eric tell Pete to get a life!” Ella yelled into the phone.

“Babe, I'm trying! He wont leave. I'm ignoring him,” Eric said. Ella could already see him smirking at Pete and Pete fake being hurt. She laughed.

“I don’t get why you brought him with you on a FAMILY vacation,” Ella said, rolling her eyes. Pete's voice came out of no where. “You're just jealous that he didn’t bring you!” he yelled, laughing.
