Standing off to the side, I watched as Warren hit the door, shouting for us to be let in. We needed shelter at least until the fire died down, as it made it incredibly heard to see any zombies and we needed clean air to breathe. Soon, the doors opened, revealing a quaint man with glasses, who let us in. As we entered, we noticed weapons pointed in our direction, so we drew our own. I pulled out my gun with one hand and used the other to lower the bandanna around my face.ย
โMy name is Gideon Gould. Iโm the facilitator here. But we donโt really have a leader. Because everyone here participates in our decision making.โ Beside Gideon stood a blonde woman who had her gun drawn, though her eyes kept wandering back towards me. I heard a soft scoff and looked to my right to see Addy rolling her eyes.ย
โGreat, we just need some shelter until the smoke clears and some of those zombies move on.โ Warren commented.
Gideon walked around us all, holding his talking stick and spoke about what he saw in all of us. It seemed theyโd be letting us stay for the time being, which relieved some of the worries I had. The blonde woman from earlier had come down to meet Gideonโs side and spoke about the talking stick. Addy kept her gaze on the woman as she talked, her eyes narrowing slightly.ย
After we had been allowed to stay, the blonde woman led Addy and I outside, as Addy was determined on contacting Citizen Z to let him know about our whereabouts. I stood beside Addy as she worked, glancing over to the other woman as she spoke to us.
โYou know, these satellite dishes are useless hotel porn makes a comeback.โ
โLovely as that would be, hotels would need to make a comeback first. I mean, if weโre lucky enough thereโs enough circuitry left that we could reorient one of these dishes and get another satellite going here. But.. see. Weโre not lucky.โ Addy commented, sighing slightly as she looked at the control panel.ย
โGreat. All the way from New York?โ The woman spoke, looking in my direction.ย
โYeah. We both are..โ I spoke, moving over to stand by Addy as she went to another satellite dish.
โSeems impossible.โ
Addy stood up and sighed deeply, and moved over to the woman.ย โFor some of us it was.โย
โYou know weโve been inside this hotel since day one.โ
โNobody tried to leave?โ I questioned, moving closer to the two.
โLots of people. Some of them escaped. Some were banished. Yeah, I thought they were the lucky ones. Then theyโd always turn back up a few days later. Zombies. After awhile, you just stop trying.โ
โWell.. it makes sense you stayed. You had food and shelter.โ Addy spoke, nodding for me to climb up the ladder to check out the wiring.
โWill you spot me real quick?โ I questioned, looking to the other woman. She nodded and came over and I got to work. Though I glanced over to Addy to see her standing there, her arms crossed over her chest, her eyes narrowed at the woman.ย
โSometimes, I thought I was going insane. Gideonโs very controlling. I just wanted to be somewhere without a ceiling.โ She began, looking up at me.ย โYou know, breathe fresh air out in an open sky.โ
โItโs dead.โ I concluded simply glancing towards Addy who nodded. I climbed down the ladder and almost jumped as the woman grabbed my hand, staring me in the eyes.
โSee different faces,โ She added on. I removed my hand quickly and moved back slightly.
โI gotta tell you. Itโs effed up out there.โ
โHow do you keep going?โ She asked.ย
I glanced behind me and smiled,ย โI have Addy by my side.โ She stared down at me and seemed to get closer to me but she jumped as a gun shot rang. I moved over to Addy who grabbed my hand and guided me inside.ย
โI donโt like her.โ Addy whispered to me.
โWhy? She seems nice.โ I responded.
โBecause, sheโs flirting with you.โย
โWell.. yeah. But Iโm with you Addy. No matter how much she flirts with me, Iโm not going to leave you. You know that.โ
โI know... but after everything that happened with... Mack. I canโt loose you, no matter what the circumstance.โ
โAddy, I promise you. I am not leaving your side, at least willingly. I love you, plus youโre hot when your jealous.โ I whispered out, giggling softly.
โI am not.โ
โI donโt like her.โ I mocked, causing Addy to laugh and smack my shoulder.ย
โI love you too.โ She responded, leaning over, she kissed my forehead.ย โNow lets, get back to the others alright?โ
