Bulchewski High School.Chloe's POV."I'll pick you guys up by 3 pm okay?" She poked her head out of the car and smiled at us. "Yeah sure, see you!" I waved at her. "See you later squirt" I chimed at Kira and practically ran off. "Slow down!" I heard her yell from afar but I didn't, not until I got to the unfinished building project at the far end of the school. I slowed to a stop and took deep breaths to calm myself. My heart raced frantically against my chest and I couldn't help the smile that grew wider with every second that passed. I took some mints and chewed quickly, I had to get rid of my chicken breath. I stood by the wall and took a breather. The sweat dried quickly and a cool breeze replaced the heat I felt. The ongoing building was not to be trespassed by students and that is precisely why we chose here as our rendezvous. It was quiet, out of reach and out of sight from watchful eyes. Although I had to admit, it was much more quiet than usual. Almost eerie if I must sa

Bulchewski High School.Chloe's POV."Ouch!" I shouted and turned to see who hit my head. It was Jordan. "Why did you have to get all riled up? One would think you are a part of the Whalians." He sat on the table in front of me. "Or the LGBTQ," Mabel spoke up from her seat with a sneer. I clenched my fist and gritted, trying my possible best to fight back the wrath that was surging within me. "Calm down, Chloe." Mitch placed his hands on my shoulders and massaged me. "Don't let her get to you okay?" He said overly sweetly. I forced myself not to gag. Every day I grew more and more tired of this guy. 'Go away!' is what I wished to say but instead, I remained silent. My classmates "awwed" and teased us and I heard him chuckle behind me. "God! Am I a spoon?" Betty called from her seat as she stared straight at us. "When will someone love me the way Mitch loves Chloe?" She swooned dramatically. "Betty, my love! Your face is the most beautiful here, no, in the entire school! And your

Bulchewski High School.Chloe’s POV.“Wait!” My trembling hand hovered over the backdoor handle. With a deep breath, I turned toward Edward. His blue eyes which always shone with love and confidence showed fear for the first time since I’ve known him. I swallowed and looked away from him. The longer I stared into his eyes, the more guilt built up within me. I can’t afford to feel that, I can’t afford to let anyone stop me from going to Kira, not even him. I nodded my head and held the door handle. I pulled it open, and the door to the classroom directly opposite mine opened at that exact time. Deborah, a junior student who came by often to ask for our board cleaner stood trembling with blood splattered all over. “Help…. Me..” Her lips read but I stood rooted in fear. She stretched out her hand and tried to take a step forward but was dragged back into the classroom. Her wails filled the air and I broke down in sweat, that could be happening to Kira right now. I am wasting time bein

Bulchewski High School.Chloe’s POV.I never knew the smell that radiated from the toilets would ever be more pleasant than any other thing. I exhaled through my nostrils and inhaled as little as my lungs would allow. No matter how much time I’d spent out of the safety of my classroom, I couldn’t get used to the rotten smell that filled the air. Although this floor was relatively better, the smell of blood was still strong. We were hurdled in the corridor that led to the toilet, the lights were off and there were no windows streaming light in. It was perfectly secluded for us to hide in until we figured out how to get into the class and check if Kira was in the storage room. Bang! I held my chest to slow my heart rate. ”There’s nothing coming for you, Chloe.” I muttered to myself reassuringly. The duo of flesh-eating monsters dragged their feet along the floorboard, occasionally bumping into each other and releasing snarls and guttural groanings from the classroom. They’d been l

Bulchewski High School.Rachel’s POV.“They’ve been gone for more than an hour now.” Betty broke the suffocating silence as she pushed her round glasses up her button nose. She pushed her shoulder-length black hair back, it was always getting in her face but it was one of the things that added to her charm.“Let’s give them more time, I’m sure they’ll return soon,” Jordan spoke from the corner he was in. His messy blonde hair was much messier today, he had been running his hand through it since they left. He was worried about Chloe.“Yeah, I’m sure they will.” I smiled briefly at him.“They’re probably dead, or crazy like the rest of the people out there.” Mabel spat.“Excuse me?” I turned towards the blonde dumb bitch we’re now stuck with.“Let’s be honest, there’s no way they are going to survive out there. They have nothing to defend themselves with and even if they did, these m..monsters don’t die.” She sighed. “If I were you guys, I’d accept that they’re dead.”“You’re saying tha
