"What happened?" She asked him.

"I got attacked..." He stated simply.
Ella sat by him. "You okay?" She asked him, noticing the gun.
(sorry for disappearing. I'm trying to figure out what to do about my online class)He shrugged. "better than the other guy."
((No, it's okay.))Ella laughed, covering her mouth. "Okay, but how bad is the wound?" She asked.
"Eh. It's just a knife wound. It'll be alright." He replied.
"Just a knife wound? It looked nasty," she said, sighing.
"You really have been protected from this world, haven't you?" He mumbled.
"What?" She said, looking at him. She had heard him, but she wanted him to repeat it.
ELi rolled his eyes. "Welcome to the apocalypse."
"I'm not sheltered! I've dealt with things too, okay?" She said, offended.
"You're the one freaking out over a bloody knife wound." He stated with a shrug
"It's still scary! I'm not allowed to be freaked out anymore?" She said, pouting.
"That's not what I'm saying." He muttered.
"Fine, then how am I sheltered?" She asked, crossing her arms.
"You're making a huge deal of a dumb wound." He sighed softly. "This is reality. Get used to it."
"I'm sorry for being concerned, alright? Anyways, you're so rude about everything. Chill," she said, running a hand through her hair.
"I'm not being rude." He answered, annoyed
"Yes, you are." She said, looking at him and thinking. "It's like you think you're better than me."
"That's how you interpret it." He replied.
"Fine, then how do you interpret it, Mr. Smarty Pants?" She asked.
Eli said something under his breath, grabbing his gun and digging through his bag
"O-okay then," she said, watching him, tilting her head. She rubbed her wrist, feeling her timer.
"Um, mind putting the gun down?" She asked, uncomfortable.
"I'm not gonna shoot you. Relax." He replied.
"I wouldn't put it past you. You really hate me," she said, tense.
"I wouldn't be sitting here still if I hated you so if you're gonna just keep assuming, knock it off. "
Ella sighed, not saying anything. She still didn't relax. She had always hated guns, and had began hating them more as she had seen what they could do.
Eli kept the gun by his side, finding a water bottle in his bag.
She shifted, relaxing slightly. She didn't trust him enough to relax completely.
Eli behaved perfectly calm, drinking done of the water.
She watched him warily, her hands absentmindedly braiding stalks of grass.
"Are you done staring at me or is there something you want to say?" He asked.
"Uh, yeah, sorry," she said, looking away, willing herself not to blush. She didn't succeed, her cheeks reddening in embarassment.
Eli rolled his eyes. He glanced over at her.
She sighed. "Why don't you smile?" She asked him, curious.
Eli rolled his eyes. Not having an answer.
She glanced at him. "Did you have any siblings?" She asked him softly.
She smiled softly. "Just curious," she said.
Eli nodded slowly but didn't elaborate for her.
"Were they younger?" She asked again, missing her siblings.
Eli didn't reply. Not wanting to talk about his family.
"Well then. Be that way," she mumbled, frowning.
