Sci-Fi New Years Marathon? (Story)

Episode 1: The Twilight Zone.
So along with writing my views on life I also like writing stories and thinking. My favorite style of course is Teen issues. Fights, drama, unusual, etc. So to celebrate the new years and the Twilight Zone Marathon on Sci-Fi, I'm going to give you one Twilight Zone style to think about. You might wanna join in on this when your daydreaming sometime! But here's the scenario: Everyone on the earth is gone. You go to the high school to try and find someone. Anyone. And the only person you find is someone you have an awkward relationship with, or someone that dislikes you, or an enemy. Your only choice is to get to know each other and work together. The only reason I like this story is because it shows you how much of an impact friends have on who you can be friends with, and/or it shows that you can find that a person isn't so bad if you just talk to them. For the purpose of my story and not wanting this to be like my LJ, It will just be a made up person.

I woke up around 12:30, as I usually do since I go to bed way too late every night. I check my facebook and my phone for messages and find nothing. I throw some pants and deodorant on and walk downstairs. Strange... no ones home. I know Tony is at school and Dad is probably at work, but where is mom? I check the garage and outside and all 3 cars are home. I called everyone with no answer. Looking for some kind of life and explanation, I jumped into the convertible and decided to drive to the high school. By the time I got there D-Lunch would have been over, but since Corbin had a stroke I figured there would be no one there to stop me this time. I panicked as I reached Herndon Parkway. No one was outside, cars were in the lot and just spread out crashed along the side of the road; some of them still running. It was as if everyone just vanished in the middle of what they were doing. When I got to the high school the lot was empty except for a few cars in the staff lot. I parked in my usual spot behind the school and walked into the foyer hoping to find someone... although my expectations were pretty low.

I didn't want to leave the foyer. I felt like it was one of those horror movies where I would get killed by something trying to walk anywhere else. I peeked into the Gym and the auditorium but nothing. I just looked around the room blankly in circles and pacing, not really quite sure what to do next. I freeze. I'm looking towards the front of the school but here a car moving in the lot I parked behind me. I spun around and walked to the door but stuck to my left side wall so she couldn't see me. Oh shit. It was Katie. She would not be happy to see me. In fact, she would probably think I'm somehow responsible. She got out of the car and without hesitation I just walked outside.

Katie was looking down and walking towards the school, but looked up after hearing my footsteps. We froze. She walked backwards to her car without taking her eyes off me. "An- An- Andy?" she stuttered. I looked and her blankly not knowing what to say, but didn't move towards her. "What's going on here?" she asked. "I don't know" I said. "But so far it's just me and you." Katie was still uncomfortable and did not want me to be here, but at the same time she didn't want to leave alone. "We should find more people." she quickly suggested. "Well, where do you want to look first?" "I don't know, I'm scarred." "Ok, well why don't we get in our cars, and you can just follow me to..... Reston Town Center?" ".... Al- Alright, that's not a bad idea." I knew Katie was terrified. I was too, I just acted calm and collected as if this happened everyday for her sake. I didn't want her to think I was more frightened and frightening then she already did. Katie didn't even really know me. This view of me was just pounded into her head by friends who just assumed my daily life consisted of getting girls drunk and playing Mario Party while listening to songs with the word skeet in them. I just put in my tape converter and listened the new Lupe Fiasco CD from my Ipod. I tried singing along to that instead of paying attention to the loads of scattered cars on and off, and the empty streets. I also kept checking to make sure I hadn't lost Katie. I wanted to move on as quickly as possible, but she was rubbernecking everything, amazed at the sights and how surreal it all was. I parked in the closest lot and waited her to park next to me before I got out. We were here, and I didn't see anyone.

"Let's go to the fountain" I told Katie. She just nodded. She didn't want to talk to me, but was willing to follow me. I walked down the stairs in front of the fountain and just stopped to look around. The amazing feeling I got when I was here Christmas eve at quarter to twelve when no one was here was gone. Instead of feeling alive and outdoors and wanting to go to the hotel for a drink, my heart was racing. This time I wish I saw someone. Katie was shaking all over and started panicking. "I don't like this... where is everyone? Why is this happening? Why are you here and not anyone else?" she asked in a demanding succession. I needed to calm her down. There's no way we were gonna make it though this with her freaking out like this. Even I was starting to panic, and if I totally lost control then all would be lost. I just turned to her and thought of and idea. "Why don't we grab a cup of coffee? I don't really like coffee so I'll just get hot chocolate or something, but it's all good." "Andy THERE IS NO ONE HERE. Who will make it for us?" she yelled. "Just come with me to the Starbucks please? You have to trust me, I just really need sometime to drink and calm me down from all this shit." The expression on her face scarred the shit out of me. She was a goner. She was tall and skinny, and I had heard people make fun of her for how skinny she was. She was pretty white but was even paler now, however she didn't lose much of her cute factor to me, which made me smile. "Whats so funny?" she asked, sort of pissed off. "Nothing, please come with me...... ffs." Annoyed and hoping she would take the bate, I turned around and started walking towards the Starbucks without her.
"Ffs?"
"For fuck sake."
"Oh, well, Wait a sec, don't leave me here..." She caught up to me didn't leave my side all the way to the abandoned Starbucks. Not that she wanted to be there, but again, I knew the loneliness scarred her. I wasn't exactly happy either... I didn't want to babysit her while scarred shitless. Why in the world did it have to be her? Why couldn't it have just been Dan or someone that we could have just thought things through? Why is this happening in the first place? Little did I know that eventually, all those questions would be answered.
