kiss shivering in disgust at the memory of it, once clean I dry myself off with a towel and dress in the fresh clothes leaving the dirty ones in the laundry basket, I dry my hair and search the room for Sam's makeup.

I decide to put on some foundation, mascara and lip gloss and admire myself in the mirror, "I think I look really cute!" I exclaim "you may look cute but it's me they're seeing not you! You're evil and they know it!" Exclaims Sam in the mirror with an angry look on her face, "don’t frown sweetie you'll get wrinkles, besides as far as they know I am you, and soon enough you'll be gone" I laugh and Sam looks worried, "you won’t have the light forever Amaya, I'll take my consciousness back and tell them it was you!" She exclaims in a panic, "they’ll think you're the liar, honey they think I'm you" I smile back sweetly, she continues to argue, I find something to clean the bit mark and wrap a bandage around the wound, I grab a jacket to hide it and leave the room.

"Ready?" April asks as I close the door behind me, I smile at her admiring how good she makes jeans and a tee shirt look, "absolutely let's go" we link arms and walk down to the game room, I grin smugly knowing I have these people right where I want them.

Chapter 8

April chats to me excitedly as we arrive at the game room, she points to a dancing machine with a smug look on her face knowing I won't deny her, we turn on the game watching as the screen lights up and the floor keys buzz to life, we choose a song and prepare to dance "I'm a pro at this, prepare to be thrashed" I roll my eyes but can't help but grin at her, "oh is that right? Well I'm an expert so prepare to meet your match!" I exclaim egging her on, the song begins, and we stamp and jump on the keys using arm movements and spinning to seem like we are truly dancing and not just standing on lit up floor keys.

I sneak a peek at her listening to her laughter and admiring the concentration on her face, before long the song ends and we're both panting and sweating, we laugh and watch the screen expectantly to see who won, the numbers pop onto the screen player 1 98% accuracy, and player 2 97% accuracy, I groan in defeat as April exclaims in victory and jumps up and down.

"So you suck at dancing so to make it fair we will now play a game of your choosing, but if you lose that I'll be super disappointed in you as a person" April jokes with a grin, "easy air hockey, I'll thrash you at that" I smirk and lead her to the air hockey table.

The game begins and the aggressive thrusting of the disk back and forth each side of the table begins, we screech as the disk flies towards our sides each time and deliver a hefty hit back, April groans in annoyance when the disk escapes her and into her goal, she exclaims "ha!" As she scores into my goal, a wicked grin on her face which soon falls as my score moves higher and higher until I am the champion of this game.

"Are you now not disappointed in me as a person?" I ask feeling smug, "you just got lucky" she huffs in playful annoyance, "let’s just go sit in the garden for a bit!" She announces and takes off out the door and down the hall, I hurry to catch up with her and this soon turns into a game of chasing her, she screams and laughs as I slowly gain on her and tackle her in the garden.

"Fine you win" she huffs out of breath, I have her arms pinned to the ground and grin knowing I remain the victor, I clamber off her out of sheer awkwardness of my face being so close to hers, "why'd you just go weird?" She laughs, I shrug and laugh awkwardly wrecking my brain to change the subject, "you're different today" she comments catching me of guard "what do you mean?" I ask worried my cover has been blown, "just more yourself, yesterday you were kind of... I don’t know bossy" I sigh in relief "guess the nerves of being on a first patrol got to me, sorry I took it out on you" she smiles back kindly and wraps her arm around me, "you got me babe" she laughs, I feel my cheeks warm at her proximity and try to push it to the back of my mind.

We walk aimlessly around the vast garden that is filled with Rose's, sunflowers and every other flower imaginable, "how are things with my brother?" She asks, I try to think of what straight minded Sam would say, "pretty good, I mean as good as a girl and a guy can be during a zombie apocalypse" I joke she smiles but I see a hint of something hidden beneath, "you're not jealous... are you?" I ask she laughs for too long and too forcefully, "why would I be jealous of you two? I've been rooting for you guys for years, I'm not mad or anything or like lonely if that's what-" I cut her off with my lips planted on hers, she gasps in surprise but kisses me back only for a second, then she’s pushes me away.

"What the fuck was that?!" She asks angrily and confused, "you're dating my brother why would you..." she can hardly string a sentence together in her confused state, "I've... I've got to go" she dashes off before I can explain away what happened or figure out if she felt the same way, then she’s gone and I'm alone
