Sleeplessly, Smith tossed and turned around on the small bed of the isolation ward. He missed the cafeteria and its muffled noises, he missed Erin's smile and the friendly words she always found for everyone, and he missed Kurdy, though the grumpy guy still refused to accept that he was his partner now.

After being on the road alone for so long, just him and the voice in his head, who insisted that he was his messenger now, Smith had gotten used to it, that others were either afraid of him or called him a weirdo and beat him up. But then, God had sent him to the Mountain, and it felt as if he finally had found a place to stay, a home, friends.

Tourmented, Smith closed his eyes. No, he was not afraid of dying because of a stupid virus, but he was afraid of being alone again.


Note: There is a sequel to this fic here.

„Hey, time to get up.“

Smith frowned reluctantly, but then, recognizing Kurdy's voice, he suddenly felt wide awake. „What are you doing here?“ He paled. „Oh, no, you are infected, too? “

„Calm down.“ The big guy put his hand on Smith's shoulder. „I'm fine, and so you are.“

„What's this supposed to mean? The fever, the pain...“

„Only a heavy infection, nothing that did kill you.“

Still feeling dizzy, Smith blinked. „I will live?“

Kurdy smirked. „Seems as if I'm not getting rid of you so easily. C'mon, partner, time to go back to work!“
