chapter 9 - title unkwoen :)

~ fasrfoward 2 weeks later~

i peered out the window, "were safe for now". i said and walked back into the kitchen were Jeremy and holly were standing.

"when is the supplier going to be here?" Jeremy said with a mouth full of toast. "hopefully in 2 hours".

"good cause were running out of water". holly said looking through the fridge shit not the water, "already?" she nodded and continued rummaging in the fridge.

i sat on one of the island stools and started to drink my coffee, when i felt Jeremy's hand on my thigh. i jumped at his touch, and shoot a stern look at him. 'not now' i mouthed and continued to drink my coffee.

'bring!'

i looked at holly and Jeremy, "holly pass my gun please" i said and made my over to the door.

over the 2 years this Apocalypse has gone down hill. the infected are learning how to knock on doors and carry a knife. the army is saying that at least 5% out of 100% of the infected can now sprint and carry/shot guns.

i walked up to the door, listening if there was any gargling sounds or moans... nothing.

i opened the door slightly and saw the supplier man. i opened the door fully and took the boxes. "is that all the boxes left until next week?" i said signing the clip board.

he nodded, "sadly yes.. we hope to get a lot more in by Monday next week".

i sighed, "thanks.. stay safe". he nodded and walked away back to the helicopter across the street. i shut the door and put the boxes down.

"this was all the stock they had left until next week" i said and started to cut open the boxes.

i was greeted by a huge dog licking my face. "gah gross Theo!" i said and pushed him away.

About 4 months ago the military and government thought it would be a good idea to have natural born hunting and protective dogs for anyone who still lived on the outside, protecting and infected from coming into the safe zone.

Theo was a 4 month year old German Shepard, he was always full of energy and was a great fighter. before the dogs were sent out they were given a shot that protects them from catching the virus.

'if only we could take the shot' i said in my head. it was harmful to any person because of all the chemicals in it.

Jeremy pulled a box towards him and so did holly, both digging around and pulling out equipment.

"woah! a brand new AK-47" i looked at Jeremy and giggled. "nice".

"hey at least we have more water and dog food" holly said and filled the cupboard up.

"that's good".

We had sorted out all the new equipment and resources when holly spoke.

"I'm going to fill up the travel backpacks and have a shower, be about 20 minutes".

i giggled, "ok we'll be here still".

after holly had gone up stairs i stood up and refiled Theo's food bowl.

"there you go boy" i said and scratched his head when i was suddenly lifted up by the waist.

i quickly looked behind me and saw Jeremy holding me.

"how about now?" he said still holding me. i flicked my hair to the side, its length touching my shoulder blades.
