    Summary

    Benson squinted, eyes narrowing as the sobs wracked Randy’s body. He didn’t flinch. Didn’t smile. Didn’t move. He just stared, eyes burning into the zombie’s.

    Something prickled in the back of his mind. Zombies didn’t…cry. At least, not ones he’d seen. Never once had he seen an infected shake and make that wet, choking sound that belonged to someone alive, somewhere in there.

    He tilted his head down slightly, studying him. The grime, the blood, the way his lips trembled, the wetness clinging to his chin. He didn’t know why it mattered, but it did. The twitching, the sobs. It was almost human. And that made Benson laugh, low and dry, a sound that rattled off the tile.

    “Fuckin’ hell…” he muttered, gruff, almost to himself. “Look at you…”

    Randy’s body lurched, muscles jerking as he tried to push against the pull that dragged him forward. Another sob slipped out, wet and small, and Benson’s eyes flicked along the shaking form.

    He didn’t move to kill him. Didn’t aim to. Didn’t even consider it. Not yet. Whatever this was, it was new.

    Summary

    Maybe Benson doesn’t know exactly where he’s going or how long it’ll be before this whole thing reaches its inevitable, bloody conclusion, but he knows he’s taking Randy with him. (Canon divergent from Miss Beard's house)

    Summary

    “You like me gross.” He reaches for Randy’s shirt, and Randy tugs it off easily, lowering himself backwards for Benson to crawl on top of him. Randy smells like citrus bodywash and clean-pressed cotton, like paper and motor oil, and Benson buries his face in his neck and sighs raggedly. “You like me gross, and sweaty, and–”

    He’d made fun of him before, but there’s nothing weak whatsoever in the way Randy shoves him to the side. Benson lands on his back with a grunt, and Randy’s on top of him before he can fully get his bearings.

    “I like you like this,” Randy says, straddling his hips and grinding down to let Benson feel just how hard he is. “I like you under me, and I like you doing exactly what I want. And yeah, fine, I like you sweaty.”

    Benson picks up some day labor work to fund their fucked-up road trip, and finds out that Randy's got kind of a thing for it.

    Summary

    Benson works his hand over his own face, fingers shaking as they smooth his mustache down. “I– if you get in that car, it’s– we’ll have to keep running,” he says hoarsely. “They’re gonna keep looking for me.”

    “For us.” Randy nods, his heart in his throat. He doesn’t think he’s ever felt the wind so keenly against his skin, doesn’t think the wet pavement has ever smelled so sweet, doesn’t think Benson’s eyes have ever been so blue. Everything feels electric, like the air before a thunderstorm. “I know. I don’t care. I don’t want to stay in this town any longer, anyway.”

    “You mean it?”

    “Yeah.” He’s never meant anything before, he thinks. He means this.

    Benson starts to smile, then, wild and sharp. “Alright. Let’s get out of here.”

    Summary

    Benson has nice hands. Randy has seen them speckled with blood, caked around his cuticles and under his nails. He knows their weight, their heft, how despite how thin they were, the force they possessed when they wrapped around his throat.

    (alternatively: randy discovers how a poorly timed boner is actually a good thing.)
