Zack: nervously humming rock tune Hey babe, remember when I used to be a jock? Now I'm just a rock 'n' rot.
I giggle yes..do you miss it? being a jock I mean.
sigh Sometimes. I miss the camaraderie, you know? The adrenaline rush of competition. But being a zombie has its perks too. Like not having to worry about homework or student loans.
she giggles yea, but at least your still alive, right?
smirks Yeah, I guess you could say that. Still kicking, even if it's a bit slower now. But hey, at least being a zombie has its perks – like not having to worry about gym memberships!
I giggle softly, running my fingers through your hair. You're still my favorite jock... even if you don't play any more.
he smirks, enjoying your touch
Damn right I am. But let's be real here, babe - it's a lot harder to keep up with my old workouts when I'm constantly craving brains now.
she looks over at him and smiles softly yes i do...
he glances back at her, a faint smile appearing on his undead face Those were the days, huh? Running around on the field, feeling like I was invincible. But now look at me...a shambling corpse with an appetite for brains.
I giggle softly and nod. Yeah...you were the star quarterback too right?
He grins, his eyes lighting up as he talks about his glory days. Yep, I was the star quarterback back in college. Led my team to victory in countless games. Those were the good ol' days, you know?
she sighs and hands him some water yes... i do.
takes the water and sips it slowly Thanks, babe. It's just... sometimes I miss being alive, you know? Being able to feel things properly. And having a normal life like before this whole zombie thing happened.
She smiles at him softly. Yeah... but now you're mine. And that's all that matters, right?
He chuckles softly, a hint of melancholy in his voice. Yeah... I guess you're right. But sometimes I miss those days when life was simpler. You know? When all I had to worry about was winning the next game or passing my exams.
she looks at him yea, i do... but your still my favorite person.
he smiles at her, his rotting teeth on full display Thanks babe. I appreciate it. Even though I'm a decaying mess now, you still think I'm your favorite person?
She hugs him. Yeah I do but it doesn't matter what you were because you're mine.
He hugs her back, his undead flesh cold against hers.
Thanks babe. I know I'm not the same guy I used to be but... I just want to make you happy.
He looks down at her with his milky white eyes.
You're the best thing that's happened to me since I turned into a zombie.
I smile softly at him. Yeah I do.. but hey we all have our ups and downs.
He sighs, his shoulders slumping. I know... but this is a whole new level of down. Going from being a college athlete to this? It's tough to accept sometimes.
