Little Store (Archived)
Luke tried to open the door but it wouldn't budge
September bit her lip. "Where are we?"
"Some store? It doesn't look anyone's been here for a while"
"Go around to the back. There's a window. It looks like it's covered with wood from the inside, but it swings on hinges. The store has a coke sign, right?"
"Uh," Luke looks up. "yeah. Okay one sec." Luke went to the back and opened the window. "It opened."
"Okay, crawl through there. I used to come here with my sister Jenna. When she..uh...When she hung out with friends."
"Oh uh alright." he decided not to ask since it didn't seem like she wanted to elaborate. He crawled though window and landed with a thud.
She bit her lip, running her hand along until she found the window, then tried to jump through, tumbling over the edge. "Humph..." she gasped. "Ouch..."
Luke inhaled sharply. "fu** You okay?"
He stepped to her and took her hand.
She smiled slightly, standing. "Thanks."
"Sure." Luke looked around. "It's uh dusty"
"I know, probably even worse than back in the day, but it outta do."
Luke blows on a counter and dust flies. "Eck..." He moves around the room and looks at the old bottles and spider web covered decor.
Luke picked up a bottle. "This stuff is kind of cool..." he blew the dust off of it and looked inside to find a little spider. "AH!" He screamed and dropped the bottle.
"No...maybe..." he said as he backed away from his mess. He wanted to burn the whole place down but he resisted.
Luke walked back to her and took her hand in his.
She smiled, giving his hand a gentle squeeze.
"I guess we'll have to sleep here tonight..." he looked around.
"That's okay. I'll protect you."
Luke laughed lightly. "thank you." he kissed her cheek gently.
He smiled. "Did you guys happen to leave a stash of blankets or anything?"
"I think there are some in a cupboard on the East side."
"Okay." Luke moved to the cupboard she mentioned. Inside he found one fleece blanket.
"It should have two or three unless it was robbed."
"There's only one..." he picks it up and shakes it for spiders. "I guess we could use it to lie on."
"Yeah, I guess. Then...for survival purposes if I lie really close we'll stay warm."
He couldn't feel heat so she'd be the only one warm but the thought of sleeping next to her made him blush. "R-right." he said as he spread out the blanket. "Come here. " he put out his hand for her.
She moved her fingers through the air, searching.
He pushed loose strands of hair behind her ear.
"Can I tell you something? I'm scared you'll run away."
Luke put his warm hand on her cheek. "I would never."
She smiled, biting her lip. "I...I think I have a super power."
"You..do?" he asked dropping his hand.
"I don't know. It is just recently that it starts. I can see but I...I can't. I'm blind and can't see, my eyes don't work, but my brain can locate everything within a three mile radius."
"...really? That's actually really good! And amazing.." He took her hand in his.
"Yeah. I know exactly what you look like, actually. Not your hair color or your eye color, but you."
"Oh..." he blushed then wondered if she could 'see' that. "what else?"

{Great place to sleep. Buy and sell? Not so much. The store is empty, everything taken after the disease hit. Go on in. It might be haunted...}
