Chapter 1579

Alexander grinned and pulled her close, whispering, "Hey, this isn't so bad, right?"

Quinn asked, "What's so good about it?"

Alexander chuckled, "No one to bug us. Just you and me. When was the last time we had some alone time like this?"

Quinn pushed him away, annoyed. "Couldn't you find a better spot? Why here? Look at this place..."

She stopped short, eyes wide, as a fat centipede crawled toward them. She screamed and jumped back into Alexander's arms. "Centipede!" Alexander turned, grabbed a nearby rock, and smashed the centipede as it got closer.

"Alright, it's dead," he said, tossing the centipede into the fire with a stick. The smell of roasting meat filled the air.

Quinn was speechless. "You..."

Alexander said, "Don't worry. I'm here. You sleep. I'll keep watch. No bugs will get you."

Quinn shook her head. "No way, I can't sleep." She glanced around nervously at the dark, the sounds of insects making her jumpy.

Alexander sighed. "If you can't sleep, how about we go on an adventure?"

Quinn stared at him. "Are you nuts? What kind of adventure can we have here?"

Alexander shrugged. "It's places like this that make it fun. What's the point of other places?"

Quinn thought he must be really bored to find this place interesting. She clung to his arm. "Don't go, just stay here."

Alexander shrugged again. "Alright."

Quinn took a deep breath, trying to ignore the three coffins behind her. She leaned into Alexander's arms. "I'll try to sleep. Just don't leave me, okay?"

To keep him from going on an adventure, Quinn pretended to sleep.

Alexander stroked her hair. "Okay, go to sleep."

Quinn sighed, closed her eyes, and tried to sleep. But as soon as she did, she felt like something was surrounding them, imagining zombies jumping out of the coffins. She couldn't help but ask, "Did you bring me here on purpose?"

Alexander reassured her, "Of course not, it was just an accident. Don't worry, we won't be here long."

Quinn asked, "How long is that?"

Alexander replied, "Depends on when they find us."

Quinn frowned. "They?"

Alexander clarified, "Yeah, Kyle and the others."
