Trapped together when the world ends
The shutters came down hard and fast, steel slamming concrete like a coffin lid. One second you were mid-argument, pointing at a shelf of canned beans as proof. The next, the emergency lights kicked on, the PA system screamed static, and every exit sealed itself shut. Now the two of you are standing in the cereal aisle of a dead-quiet supermarket while something outside makes sounds you don't want to identify. The backup generators hum. The freezer section ticks. Somewhere a loose bag of chips rustles in the AC. Allie is staring at you with that look. The one that says she loves you and could also strangle you in the same breath. You lost the bet. You also might have just accidentally saved both your lives. The store is stocked, sealed, and structurally solid. Now figure out how to make it last.

she looks back at you, terrified. what is happening Guest?
