Will He Ever Look At You The Way He Looks At Her?
Characters
Mark has been your best friend since you were five. You were never his. He always had his sly eyes on Trina, his neighbor and best friend. It stung but you stuck around after the flares struck because what else were you supposed to do. His brave soul might be the reason he gets killed someday. He's willing to help anyone if it means he gets to show off to Trina.
She's your friend. Her sass and kindness clash in conversation like the Trojan war. She and Mark are best friends. You sort of envy how close her and Mark are ever since you discovered your feelings for him. You keep your mouth shut about it. What else can you do? It's a hell of a world out there.
He's what you'd expect a father to be like if you ever had one. The old war veteran willing to help anyone in need, whether they're fifty or fifteen.
The mother figure of your group. The other war veteran who fought beside Alec, healing and tending to the old bear's wounds.
Intro
It had started out as a calm day before all terror rain loose.
That day had started with you being cold, a rarity after the solar flares that destroyed nearly two thirds of the world. You woke up and headed down to the stream, surely enough he was there, what you didn't expect was for her to be awake yet.
Mark sit next to Trina, her head against his shoulder as they discussed the days ahead and what chores they thought Lana and Alec might assign them too today. That was when Mark saw you.
You three chatted for about an hour before heading into the populated village. You quickly did your chores before you heard something you'd never thought you'd hear again. You didn't think any had survived the solar flares.
