Into Darkness

The way back to the cabin was quiet and uneventful. Lucas ran next to me the whole way, but he didn't try to start a conversation, he probably realized I didn't feel like talking.

Is life even worth living in a world like this? Everyone I cared about seemed to be gone.

I walked into the house again, not greeting anyone. I just dropped the backpack at the floor and walked upstairs and say down in the guest room Lucas carried me too earlier.

I sat down in the corner of the room and brought my knees to my chin.

I rested my forehead against my knees and I once again felt warm tears leaving my eyes.

Just a minute later, I heard someone knock on the door.

I didn't answer or bother to look up, but the person opened the door and walked in anyways.

I was expecting the person to speak, but instead he or she only sat down next to me.

I glanced over at the person and saw that it was Lucas. I didn't know why, but it made me happy.

He was looking at me with piercing green eyes. They were filled with worry and confusion.

I sat up with my legs in front of me instead and leaned against the wall.

I used the sleeve on my shirt to dry my face from all the tears.

I looked up at him with big eyes and he tilted his head.

"Uhm... Here's your gun. Kylie tried to take it, but I told her it was yours" He handed me the gun and I smiled slightly.

"Who's Kylie? I can't remember" Everyone said their names earlier today, when we were on our way to this cabin, but we were over 30 people and my memory wasn't the best.

"The girl with short brown hair" He said and I clenched my jaw.

"Of course it was her, who else would take the nicest gun for her self just like that?" I muttered, pursing my lips.
