The First ~10K~ (book 1)

15: Plans

Doc didn't have any ammo left but he had his trusty crowbar.

Vasquez has two full clips and his police baton.

Warren had 5 bullets left and her machete.

Murphy had Cassandra as his weapon and she didn't need ammo.
Unless you count flesh as ammo.

Addy had her Z-Whacker and a full clip.

"Alright," Warren sighed.  "How's the fuel looking?"

"Half a tank." Doc replied.

"How far do you thing it'll get us?"

"A long ways if it's downhill and we spare the fuel." Doc replied.

"I think I remember seeing a small Mennonite farm last time I was down here." Vasquez explained.

"How far?" Warren asked.

"10 miles or so." He replied.

"Whoa, whoa, whoa." Murphy spoke up. "We are not planning on going to some abandoned farm, are we?"

"What else do you suggest we do?" Addy snapped.

Hearing her voice for the fist time since Mack made me jump. It wasn't as happy and spirited as before. It was deeper and more depressed, like it sucked out every emotion she had left in her.

"She's right," I agreed. "We should check this place out."

Addy looked at me and smiled a little, before going back to her stare at the tree stump.

"How far do you think we can get with the van?" Warren asked Doc.

"A little less than 4 miles. Depends on the roads." Doc replied.

"Maybe we can find another ride on the road." 10K suggested.

"Yeah, Maybe." Warren agreed.

We all took her reply as pack up time. We took our ammo and weapons and started to pack up our tents and supplies.

I was folding clothes in mine and 10K's tent when Addy walked in.

"Hi." She whispered.

"Hey," I replied. "What's up?"

Her eyes started to tear up.

"Talking to you always makes me feel better. You have a way with words and a gentle voice." She said with a fake smile.

"What do you want to talk about?" I asked, setting down my backpack of clothes.

"I'm tired of thinking about Mack. I'm going to drive myself crazy thinking about him." Addy replied. "So, let's talk about you and 10K. Seeing you guys together makes me ahppy. You guys show what true love is really like."

I smiled and shook my head. "You don't want to know about us. We're just kids."

"Yeah, but we all heard what happened last night. Literally." She said.

I chuckled. "What do you wanna know then?"

She shrugged. A saw a real smile forming on her face.

"How was he?" She asked.

I sighed and smiled, last nights memories flashing in my mind.

"He was...he was really good. He didn't want to hurt me or make me uncomfortable in any way." I replied. 

"Keep going. You're not telling me the whole story." Addy pushed.

"Well," I started. "10K and I have always pictured that moment. But when it finally happened, it was far better than what we thought. We made a bigger deal of it than we needed to."

Addy laughed. I laughed along with her. It felt good. Really good.

We calmed down and sat there in silence before Addy spoke again.

"10K's a good guy. I know I haven't known him as long you have, but I could tell from the first time he saved Doc, he was good. I really hope you hold on to him for a long time." Addy told me.

"I plan to." I replied, taking Addy's hand.

10K walked in, surprised to see Addy talking.

"Hey, Addy." 10K said.

"Hey, lover boy. I was just talking to your girlfriend about last night. She says you were good." Addy said, winking.

10K blushed and looked at his feet. He was so cute when he got embarrassed.

"I-I hope I wasn't too bad." 10K stammered.

We all laughed. It was nice. It was almost like nothing happened from yesterday. Almost like it was back to normal.
