6 First Night in This Sh*t Storm (2/2)

The apocalypse happened approximately 4 hours ago, so the underground reservoirs shouldn't be contaminated by that much yet. Of course, they would try to find bottled water in the future for drinking, but if they wanted to store some fresh water just in case, this might be the only time they could get tap water that's close to being drinkable.

Jay immediately began filling the bathtubs and sinks on the second floor with water after rinsing them a bit; Alex emptied all the soda cans and bottles and filled them up with water; Christian went downstairs and filled up all the kettles, cups and bowls they had with tap water and carried them upstairs with Elon escorting him.

”Well, tonight has been interesting,” exhausted, Jay exclaimed.

”Yeah, anything else you guys think we should do?” After running up and down the stairs more than a dozen times to transport the water, Christian couldn't move his legs anymore.

”I think that's pretty much it,” Elon thought for a second and said.

Usually, at this time of the night, they would still be streaming in the living room. When that daily routine was suddenly interrupted, the boys did feel quite empty on the inside, not knowing what to do.

Instead of playing games with over hundreds of thousands of people watching them, they were upstairs on the floor in silence, while Elon tried to use the remaining battery life of his laptop to hack into the security system for it to display light beep sounds when a motion sensor is detected.

Not knowing what was happening in the outside world, they were all on the second floor, sitting silently as they occasionally took out their phone to check for service.

Outside of the house, maybe because they were on the relatively more isolated side of the residential island away from the main road as well as the Miami South Beach strip, it was quite peaceful for most of the time, with the occasional sounds of gunshots and explosions.

”Woah, they having a party out there.”

”Let's just rest up and so we have more energy for whatever might come next. Who knows what might happen in the future.”

The group decided to alternate in groups of 2 to watch the stairway, since their living room was basically wide open right now. Tired from carrying water up and down the stairs, Christian and Elon went to sleep first.

Da da da...

Inside his bedroom, Elon was startled by the knock on his door, and he immediately felt the urge to kill the guy when he heard the voice after the knock.

”Yo, can I sleep with you tonight?”
