finally- they’d managed to find somewhere relatively safe. making sure the exits were secure so the dead couldn’t find their way in unannounced, though alicia had made it clear this was a one night stop; we’re closing in on them, we can’t stop now. her desperation was evident but still, he was going to follow her -- protect her. why? because he’s peter parker.
it was a strip mall that had been picked apart. no food in the supermarket or meds in the drugstore but there was a store with some clothes for everyone and it had been a hot minute since peter had had a new shirt -- well, new in the sense of it was the apocalypse. they’d gone through, picked out what they needed, peter managed to find some cool graphic tee’s -- he missed those and a new jacket. taking what they had gotten back -- they were staying in another restaurant they’d found -- italian this time so they all ate so much pasta. he and alicia had dragged in some sleeping bags from the department store for everyone -- it was nice.
the dark haired boy was in the back changing, his old shirt on the floor but his new one misplaced for the moment. peter started searching for it amongst his things when the door flew open. his eyes widening as he stepped back -- there was nothing for him to cover himself with. ‘ hey! whoa -- ’ realising it was alicia caused him to panic even more. no one had seen him like this, ever. ‘ alicia i-- ’ he started as he looked down to the shirt on the floor -- by now she’d already had enough time to look. ‘ have you never heard of knocking? ’
