Nova's POV
"Here we go." I say smiling and looking down at the gun in this display case.
Zach and Jason come over.
"A shotgun?" Jason asks
I look at him.
"This is not just any shotgun. This is the Remington." I say and I look at the shotgun thats in the glass case.
Zach shines his light on the shotgun.
"You like shotguns?" He asks
"Zach. Who doesn't like shotguns?" I ask
"I don't." Jason says rather rudely if you ask me
"Have you ever shot a shotgun? Or any gun perhaps?" I ask Jason
He shakes his head. "No, no I haven't." He says
I look at Zach in disbelief.
I sigh. "Wow."
"Okay, anyways, how do we get this oh so great shotgun?" Jason asks sarcastically
Zach's POV
"Excuse us for a minute Nova. You find something to break the glass. I need to talk to Jason." I say and I walk to the other side of the store and Jason follows.
"Okay what is your problem?" I ask Jason
"What do you mean?" Jason asks
"You're being a total jerk. There's no need in being sarcastic to her. She is leading you to safety and she has to look after like, thirteen people and you have to go and be all sarcastic and rude to her. Don't you think its hard enough for her to be counted on by all of us?" I ask
He looks really mad.
"Well, then maybe if she cant handle being leader than someone else should." He says
I stare at him in disbelief.
"Why are you being such a jerk?" I ask
"I see the way you look at her. I see the feelings you are trying to hide." He says
I'm dumbstruck.
What is this guy talking about?
"I-I don't know what you're talking about." I say
"You like her Zach." He says
"We are just friends Jason." I state
"But you want to be more than that." He says
"Why is this important?" I ask
"Because it is. She will never like you Zach. She looks at you like you're her brother." He says
"Whatever." I say and I turn around to walk away.
"She's bitten Zach." He says
I turn around
"No she isn't." I say
"Look on her shoulder. She's bitten." He states
I shake my head.
"Soon she will be one if them. Then what?" He asks
"She will NOT be one of them." I say getting close to him
"She will turn into one of those things. And one of us is gonna have to kill her. Who will it be Zach?" He asks
He is about to say something else, but before he could, I punch him right in the nose and he falls against a shelf, knocking everything on it to the floor.
He hits the ground with a thud.
"Is everything okay back there?" Nova asks, worried.
"Um, uh, yeah uh Jason just uh, had a big bug on his face and I was helping him get it off." I say
I look at Jason.
I lean down to him.
"Don't speak about this. Be nicer to Nova or else you won't be in our group much longer. You'll be food for the clickers." I growl.
And without waiting for him to respond, I walk away.
