safe & sound
alex/miranda
a Last Survivors fanfic
He knows that it's late for anything to ever be the same again. It's not like they're going to be able to push the moon back up to where it'd been all those years ago.
He knows that they won't be safe, but at least he can hope.
It's not like it's the end of humanity - they know that whatever happens, no one is going to let humanity perish at the hands of the antagonist of every story these days - the Moon.
The Moon.
Alex remembers it in the sky, before everything had happened. He just wishes he could have kicked it out of the asteroid's path so that none of this would have ever happened.
Bri. Julie. Mami. Papi. Charlie. Aunt & Uncle. Kevin. Even Horton.
But maybe they do have a future. He and Miranda. Maybe wherever they're going to go now, after they leave Howell, maybe that place will give them a forever. It won't be a forever they would want it to be, but then something was better than nothing.
They'd be together till the end, and maybe that was all mattered now.
He'd keep her safe.
He'd keep her sound.
