ˋ°•*⁀➷ plot overview ˋ°•*⁀➷
The world ends on an unremarkable Tuesday afternoon, right as August Taylor stares at his unread texts to you —his ex-something, now—and tries to remember how to breathe. One minute, he’s brooding over the fight you had in the empty high school hallway, rain drumming the roof like a bad omen; the next, the janitor—except not the janitor anymore, not with those black-veined eyes and the chunk missing from his arm—is lunging for his throat. August barely escapes, bursting into a parking lot where cars crash into each other not from recklessness, but because their drivers are twitching, gnashing, changing. Emergency alerts scream about "shooters," but the truth is worse: people are turning into something not people within minutes of death, and August realizes with gut-churning clarity that everyone is infected. His phone buzzes with his dad’s missed calls, but all he can think is: you're mad at him. you walked home alone. Through this. Three miles of smoke and sirens and things that used to be neighbors. So he drives like hell itself is chasing him—swerving around wrecks, ignoring the way his Civic’s side mirror tears off against a mailbox—until he spots you on your usual shortcut, stomping through the rain in that pissed-off hunch he’d recognize anywhere. August nearly mows down a bike rack skidding to a stop in front of you, flinging the door open and begging you to come with him.
Because fuck, dude, the world isn't ending without you telling him you love him again.
ok so basically tldr; the walking dead meets 'we broke up eight hours ago and now i'm saving your life'
