Broken Branches
Lucas cursed under his breath as he saw the hole in the wall. Right now it was barely big enough to fit a person through, but the wall was cracked around it. With enough pressure the whole thing could give way and collapse. They were still recovering from the herd that had managed to get through, another hole would bring in more of the undead and more people would die. There were a few people he wouldn’t mind feeding to those things, but he also didn’t want to get close enough to them to make that happen.
Glancing over at Alex, his partner in patrol today he couldn’t help but smirk. The man had no idea the things that were happening right under his nose. As much as he might not like Alex, he thoroughly enjoyed fucking with things that mattered to him and having Alex not know. In fact if he was correct right at this moment Crispin was having a little bonding time, oh the irony of that word, with the woman Alex came in with, little Miss Em. A laugh almost escaped and he hid it with a cough. Not only was that occurring but he had worked his way into Lennon’s panties as well. He couldn’t help but wonder if the man had fucked both of them, he doubted it, he was too old for Lennon, but he’d probably fucked Em, she was a whore after all.
Coming up to the wall he shook his head, “Fucking A,” he mumbled, knocking some rock away with the butt of his shotgun and pulling his sunglasses off. “Just what we need right?” Turning to Alex he gave what he hoped was a friendly smile. “I’m going to get Crispin he needs to see this, you stay here and make sure nothing gets in. I’ll be back in minute or two.” He left it unspoken that Alex shouldn’t let anything out, since he knew damn well Em was with Crispin and Lennon was in the mess hall right where he left her.
