Chapter 2 - The sorrows of men

Yes pleas I would love for you to teach me how to talk to girls, lacy smiles alright she said what's the basics of what you should and should not ask a young lady, well I say things not to say well for one thing never ask to kiss? I honestly have no clue where I'm going with this I'm not really all that lucky or anything but I can say that I'm a down right badass guy that will be able to protect you from anything that u need me to I can promise you that I will always be by your side lacy because I want us to be friends and maybe at one point more than friends if that's ok with you she doesn't answer she just looks down I say I'm sorry I get into acting and I really get aggressive it's ok lacy says no it's ok it's just I never really gave any thought to what I would say if a guy said that to me, I look at her and say well honestly this is a bit awkward so I'm just going to change the subject so what I've heard that you have to be nice to a girl but not too nice or she will think of you as only a friend and what I'm afraid of is if I'm nice but not too nice she will begin to like me we might end up together and then something bad will happen then she will blame it on you and tell you to fuck off and next thing u know she's showing up at your house with your best friend and acting like nothing ever happened lacy just looks at me with wide eyes and said that is oddly specific and I tell her that's what happens to me once but then that got me to thinking I can't even remember what we were fighting about I just shake my head and say nahhhhh it doesn't matter now anyway.After a few hours I take her home we say our goodbyes and good nights I get back in my car and drive off not in any chosen direction just going where the road takes me. I'm doing 70 in a 45 and with my luck I see flashing red and blue lights in my mirrors , shit it's the five-0 so I do the appropriate thing.......I put the petal to the metal and fly down back roads and with luck I finally loose them but not for long they set a road block up ahead with blocks of concrete so I do the only thing I could do I pull over. The cop takes his time making his way to my car and he taps on my windo to roll it down so I do as I'm told and the officer said to me son do you know how fast you were going this is a 40 mph zone you were doing 70 I'm sorry sir I say I just wasn't paying attention the guy looks me up and down son I'm going to need to see some license and registration so I take out my ID and give him the registration he walks back to his vehicle and leaves the door open and I rest my head on the steering wheel then all the sudden I hear blood curdling screams and gunfire ring out into the night this makes me sit bolt upright I jump out of my car to go see what the hell is happening to my horror I walk up to the officer still fighting and firing his gun and the thing that scared me the most was who no no not who but what was attacking him. I don't know why but I pull the thing off of the officer it might have just been pure adrenaline but that went sideways when the thing turned to me and started to try to bite me. The officer seemed unharmed he got up and reloaded his gun and pointed it at the back of the thing and said hay get off of him or I'll shoot. I was staring right at the things face it's eye was gone and half of the skin and muscle on his face was gone I couldn't muster enough power to tell the officer just to shoot it won't stop because there's nothing to stop the things brain waves were gone it was just a lifeless husk of a person. I finally was able to get out a few words , just shoot the damn thing he did as I said and shot the thing in the back once and the bullet went through the thing and hit me in the sholder, gahhh son of a bitch shot it in the fucking head fuck so he did and the thing flopped to the ground . I put my hand over the gunshot wound and told the officer that I pointed at the body on the ground that is not fucking human that is a fucking zombie you need to go get the guns the tank I don't care if u call the fucking Boy Scouts but get this town some protection and don't start a quarantine camp if just one infected gets in they will be all fucked he just nods and gets back in his car and peels out going back to the city.still holding my sholder I realize that lacy is all alone at her house her parents are off working over seas I race back to her house and the front door is open oh shit I say I get out of the car not bothering to lock it or take the keys out of the ignition and run up to the door and I side things were knocked down seats were broken the table had bullet holes in it and the walls too I look everywhere and lacy is not answering her phone I hear it ringing and I walk up the stairs and there it is her phone covered in blood and lacy is no where to be found.
