"** should I write a snippet of Liam on watch and talk about how he met Katie's group, and then mention the picture of Grace? Since his group will be in the next chapter? Or is that too early? haha"You could do it or I could just mention it briefly to get the readers thinking something is going on before it is introduced later. Maybe Phoebe sees Liam holding the photo and asks him about it, then he says it's nothing, and Jenny mentions that he never puts the thing down or something like that. That way we wouldn't have to jump around between groups in the chapter.
I think I'll have my first chapter be an introduction to the group and then the end of the chapter will be when they are getting attacked and meet Zayn for the first time. I think I'm going to have Liam and Louis holding off a group of zombies while Jenny and Phoebe look for a safe spot to wait out until morning, and that's when the girls run into Zayn. I think Phoebe will get cornered by a zombie and Zayn saves her just as Liam and Louis come to help (I'm thinking Louis will be super protective of Jenny since he already lost his sister and doesn't want to lose her too?), and then there's a small stand off between the boys before Zayn agrees to show them where he's been staying so they can wait out until morning when it's safer to travel.
Also, since we had mentioned that Jenny and Louis are dating, do you want Jenny to know Grace at all or they haven't met yet? How long have Jenny and Louis been dating, how did they meet, etc.? I am cool with whatever you want to do for their relationship, since no matter what I think it will just add to Jenny's character. Her and Phoebe were best friends before the attack, so I imagine Phoebe and Louis will be somewhat close as well. I imagine at this point Liam is somewhat of an outcast with the group, having been with them for only a month and the other three being so close, which could be part of the reason the girls find the photo so intriguing. Maybe they don't know a whole lot about his backstory and are wondering if it's a girlfriend or something and are too scared to ask?
I'm just typing out as I'm thinking so let me know what you think

Okay, if it's okay with you guys, can I change Phoebe's name? This year one of my students names is Phoebe and it's all I can think about what I type out her name
It's like I'm throwing her into the apocalypse for writing a bad paper
I also got my quotes for my characters!
Phoebe: "When I was on my first rotation in the ICU, I remember thinking all the death and destruction was just too much to bear. Nursing school was nothing compared to this."
Jenny: "If it wasn't for Louis, we'd have been dead a long time ago. Now we're just following him and waiting for something more."
Zayn: "The only thing this place has taught me is that you're better off alone. When you're alone, the only person you have to look out for is you."
