AU in which the reader and 10k get into an argument, and he gets taken by another group
When 10k broaches the subject of self preservation, you know that he’s right. Your own life isn’t a priority for you, not in the thick of a fight. When Z’s are growling in your ears, and your blood rushes with adrenaline, all you care about is protecting the others. You’ll quickly throw yourself in front of them if it means saving them. You’ve done it before.
“Ive never gotten badly hurt. Never been bit. Why does it even matter?” You ask, arms crossed.
“What happens when you do get bit? Or killed? What then? What happens when you die?” He asks, brows furrowed.
“Everyone dies, 10k!”
“Not you!”
“Not yet, you mean!” He exclaims. Anger flares in your gut, and your hands curl into fists.
“Who cares?! Who cares if I croak? Who cares if some Z takes a chunk out of my neck! None of that matters! It doesn’t matter!”
“It matters to me!” He snaps.
“I didn’t ask for that!”
His face contorts, and he shakes his head.
“You can’t risk your life for me, and expect me not to do the same for you.”
“Im not asking you to like it!”
hold onto me
