《The Cellphone Swap》Chapter 9

That's when I thought of it. I had the perfect plan, and o wouldn't let him down.
I was driving in the passenger seat of my moms car watching the cars roll by. And suddenly I thought of it. The perfect plan. I would take Matthew to the Colorado mountains. He loves it there and was always talking about going back. I would take him there and he would be happy. It could be like old times.
I was going to go meet Matt at a new cafe that opened up down the street. He always liked to try new things, that wasn't me though. I stepped through the door and found him immediately. Like always, a table by the window. I walk and sit down.
"Hey." He says.
"Got your bags?"
"Of course."
He leans over and kisses me. I smile and we both order chi tea lattes. We head to the car and I drive, all the way to Colorado.
We've got the windows down and the music blaring in the background. We're at a traffic light. That's when he looks over at me and says,
"I love you."
"I love you too."
There's tears in his eyes. "There's something I need to tell you, before I die."
"No no no! Do not speak like that. Your going to make it."
"Bridg- I want you to know that I love you. I've always loved you. And your going to meet a nice guy, who will always treat you right-." Tears roll down his cheeks as he chokes on the words. He's full out crying now, and I don't know what to do. "And you guys are going to love each other. You guys will have four kids, two boys and two girls. And you'll live in Michigan in a two story house. And one of the daughters is going to find her true love, and he'll be right next door but so far away that it hurts. You know why? Because that's how you know Love is real." I'm crying too now and he leans over and wipes them away. Beep beep. Cars honk their horns. I look back at him one more time and drive towards Colorado.

We finally get to the hotel. When it's dark outside. We carry our luggage in and fall on top of the bed.
"How are you tired?" Matt says.
"I literally drove for however long it too is to get here!" I yell into the pillow.
"Let's watch the sun rise." Matthew says crawling over to me. "We could watch it from the mountains. Oh we could make a little picnic out of it. Wine, cheese, burgers."
I laugh and elbow him playfully.
"And then we could go skinny dipping in the snow."
This makes me laugh more and I snort into the pillow.
"Or just watch the sunrise." I say turning over on my side.
"Whatever." He shrugs.
"Okay, come on!" I say grabbing his hand and running down to the elevator.
I run out and find a chair. We sit down and cuddle and watch the sun rise and the moon set. It's funny how you can look at things. It's just a sun rising and a moon setting but I looked deeper into that. I guess when ever something dies a new thing is born. It's the circle of life. Something has to die for another thing to live. I look over at Matthew as he watches the sun. We go back to the cabin and write down everything we plan to do.

The Eye in the Sky
People have always thought that the undead would come from hell - that they would rise from their graves to bring their torments upon the earth. They never thought that they would come from the heavens instead and rain upon the world like divine judgment. Ten years had passed since that day. Evan had thought that he had seen all there is to see. What remained of civilized society couldn't recover. Millions of zombies wandered in every city, and thousands more roam the countryside. Every day was a struggle to survive just as it had always been. He, as well as most of the survivors that remained on earth, had resigned themselves to a life of wandering until their deaths. Their last hope was news of an underground settlement being constructed to the far west, outside the eyes of the wandering and falling undead. But then they encounter a girl who had survived in the middle of a heavily-infested city. She claims that she knows of a way to end the apocalypse once and for all. What should he and his group do?
