Josette’s story-Zombies of Mariesville

Josette loved spending time with her friends, Luisa and Charles, but she loved spending time with her boyfriend, Braden, more. Braden always liked to watch her draw her pastel-colored characters with their wide eyes, full of deep interest in all that was around them.

Growing up, Josette never imagined that she, the quiet girl who drew all by herself, would get a boyfriend who was a real person and not a fictional character. She thought that getting a boyfriend, somebody who would have a deep romantic connection to her, was some great feat that she had to accomplish before she turned sixteen.

She had Braden. Braden was nice, he always liked what she did. Braden had black hair with white hair dye streaks. His blue eyes were so dark that they looked gray and his clothes were in a grayscale color scheme, coordinated orderly. He was handsome, just the way she wanted him to be. Movies said that there would be fights in a relationship, but they never fought. Josette would sometimes make her characters fight with each other to make the story more dramatic, but that was just because they weren’t doing a relationship right. She and Braden were doing it the right way.

And since they were doing it the right way, she never had to worry about anyone breaking them apart, about losing him to whatever mysterious dark force lurked in life. They loved each other enough for it not to happen. Luisa and Charles were dating, so it was only fair that Josette would have her boyfriend.

There was a time when she didn’t have friends. That was the reason she made characters. Because Josette wanted people to connect with who would understand her wholeheartedly, without asking questions, without making her feel like a freak. She didn’t have to do that anymore because she had friends and a boyfriend.

She made characters as a fun side thing to do, without any thought, without any meaning, like playing video games in an afternoon with nothing to do. She’d never have to make characters with meaning ever again, because she had what she wanted. A social circle.

Josette would never lose her social circle.
