Hunger

Chapter 8

Morgan laughed a bit “Oh Hunny the teachers' lounge has always had a bathroom it was just off limits to students” she said walking over to a door that Sabrina thought was a supply closet and opening the door revealing a bathroom. “Now if there are no more questions you can all eat your lunches if you brought some, Mr. Hoggan will work on getting what's in the vending machines sorted and handed out evenly to everyone.” she said

Sabrina wasn’t too excited about staying a whole night in the school, let alone in the teachers' lounge with not only people she didn’t know but the one person who would sacrifice her friend just because she could. Emma was the person she was thinking about. “Here” Matt’s voice broke Sabrina’s thoughts. “Hmm” she chimed

“Your lunch I had it in my bag remember?” he asked, offering her the purple lunch pail.

Sabrina smiled “Right thanks” she said moving with matt to a table which Bri, and Jason already occupied. She unpacked her lunch, eating silently with the three who also had their lunches. She barely could taste her sandwich, which was turkey, cheese, and mayo on rye bread. Her thoughts were elsewhere. She was stressing about how they would get out of here. As well as what would be waiting for them once they were free of the confines of the school building. Sabrina was pulled from her own thoughts as a box of vending machine food was placed on the table a few feet from her. She looked up, seeing Mr. Hoggan retreating from the table. She pulled the box closer and peeked inside. The contents were four waters, eight pops, a bunch of chips, jerky, as well as a few candy bars. “I'm so glad I brought my own lunch today” she mused before grabbing a water and a jerky stick for later. Her eyes shifted to the rest in the room doing the same as her picking what they wanted to eat and eating or just making themselves at home. After all they were stuck in for the night.

Sabrina looked to her three friends and smiled “Alright let's come up with a game plan” she said keeping her voice low.

“Besides getting more food?” Matt asked Sabrina rolled her eyes and tossed him a bag of chips

“Yeah, besides food. I'm talking about what comes next, we need to be planning for tomorrow morning when we get to the first floor and finally get out of this place what's first step? Whose home first? Do we stay together? That sort of thing” she said

Bri glanced over at Jason before speaking “I say go for whatever exit looks promising jump in whoever car we get to first and say f**k our parents we should head to my families lake house its stocked still from last weekend we can ride this out there” she said Jason seemed to agree with the nodding of his head.

“That does sound appealing” Sabrina admitted “But we can't just ditch everyone else, can we?” she asked Bri nodded “Yeah it seems kind of cold, but we would all be zombie food if it wasn’t for you speaking up” she said Matt looked a bit nervous.
