I ask her “I’ve been okay, are you okay?” she asks finally looking at me “yeah it hurts a bit but I’m alright" I reply, she seems deep in thought for a moment, “when you freaked out that night, were you trying to hurt Sam?” I ask hating myself for even thinking this way for a moment, “what? No I had no idea what I was doing, I thought I was fighting off zombies" she explains a fearful look on her face “I shouldn’t have asked that sorry, I would understand if you’re unhappy me and Sam are spending so much time together though" she looks at me confused, “spending lots of time together? Are you guys dating or something?” she asks.

“I thought you knew...” I mumble confused, she suddenly beams at me “gosh finally, the back and forth with you guys was exhausting to watch even though it was obvious you both liked each other" I smile in relief, “so you’re not mad we’re together?” I ask, she laughs “quite the opposite actually, I’ve known she’s had a thing for you for years, always wanting to come to my house when we saw each other and she always asked about you, I was kind of rooting for you guys" after she says this I’m filled with even more confusion, why would Sam think April was against us if she didn’t even know about us?

“So, are we good?” April asks timidly “of course we weren’t ever not good, I know it wasn’t your fault what happened, Sam just said something and I just had to ask" I sigh, “I think she’s mad at me, she’s been kind of cold to me" I have a bad feeling at Sam’s behaviour, she’s not usually like this her personality is warm and fun and kind, but we’ve both seen a completely new toxic side to her which is difficult to digest.

“I’m going to talk to her, the way she’s acting is a little bit concerning, and kind of manipulative which is completely unfair, I don’t want to assume the worst of her but it’s like she’s trying to pit us against each other" April nods in agreement, we say our goodbyes and she promises to visit more.

I wince as I stand to my feet using my crutch Noah gave me, “Sam?” I ask knocking on her door, it swings open to reveal a smiling Sam a polar opposite to the girl who spoke to me earlier, “oh are you okay? I should have come to you to help” she says with a worried look on her face, she helps me into her room and onto her bed, “do you need anything?” she asks sweetly, “I’m okay I just wanted to talk to you about earlier" she sighs, “I’m sorry about that, I was being way too harsh and I know April didn’t mean what she did to you, I guess I was just so worried about you I got a little protective that came out as anger" I nod in understanding still confused at the complete personality switch, it’s a side I’ve never seen and I’m sure April has never seen.

“that’s okay, I understand you must have been stressed with everything everyone snaps from time to time" I smile back at her happier that she seems to be back to how she usually is, “I’m glad you understand, that’s what I love about you you’re so understanding, how about we just lie together for a while and de-stress from the last couple of hours events?” she asks I nod in agreement as she curls up beside me.

April’s POV

I jump awake to a knocking sound, I look around the room and sigh in relief upon realising I’m back in my room safe, there’s a knock again I leave my bed and open the door to find Colonel as he was the morning before “again? Don’t I get a day off?” I whisper “this is only day two you slacker, get ready for a new lesson" I groan and close the door to get dressed in my tired state, its pitch black outside and the clock reads 5am once again on the wall and I feel sad knowing I won’t get a lie in again for a very long time.

I reopen the door and Colonel leads me to the library and through the secret door, “yesterday we worked on your god awful reflexes, now today we’ll do muscle strength, you’re a weak skinny girl which we need to change" he says in a judgemental tone prodding my flat stomach, “hey! I’m really strong, I’ll have you know I was the house’s designated jar opener!” I exclaim in an incredible proud tone but soon feel embarrassed by that statement, Colonel scoffs “we have a lot of work to do" he pulls out boxing gloves and orders me to use them on the dummy on one end of the room, “well what are you waiting for? Go on" I roll my eyes at his constant orders, but in a way, he reminds me of mum I wonder how alike they were when they were together.

I pound my fists into the dummy but I’m knocked backwards when the blow I give out is returned by the swinging dummy, Colonel emits an almighty laugh I blow some hair from my face, “part of attacking is control and well... you possess none" he laughs again I stand up with a scowl brushing off invisible dust, “I’ve attacked loads of zombies, I saved us when they attacked at my school with just a bat as a weapon!” I shout feeling my face heat up in anger, Colonel smiles and orders me to continue my assault with more control, I throw punches and kicks to the zombie dodging most of the blow back until I get to cocky and grin back at Colonel and fail to notice the blow back again that launches
