          ~As I drive down the road to the closest grocery store. It takes me about ten minutes to get there when usually I can get there in five. It took me so long because I almost hit at least four people who were running around the streets. When I got to the store the windows had been shattered and the doors had been broken in. I hesitantly get out of my car and look inside the front door. It didn't look like there was anybody inside. As I slowly walked inside I stepped on a lot of glass. There wasn't a lot on the shelves but there was at least enough to last me maybe two weeks. My arms were getting full so I found a basket to hold all my things. I put all my stuff and walked around the corner and walked right into what I thought was a wall. I looked up to see the guy I met the other day. I'm pretty sure his name is Tyler. He looked surprised to see me. Apparently we were here for the same things. We started talking and decided to stay together. We collected as much food as we could together. We decided to go back to my dorm so we could get my stuff and we were going to go to his place where he said was far enough away from here so that we could be safe.

~When we got to my dorm he came with me to help me pack and bring all of my belongings out to our cars. When we got to the entrance to the dorms I remembered the thing that was at my door. I stopped at the door to go inside. Tyler was confused about why I had stopped, so I told him all about what had happened before I left to go to the store. Then he told me he had heard similar things at his place. He was really sweet and helped me inside. When we got to my room he helped me pack all of my stuff and we left. We decided to both use his car and leave mine behind so we could be together and because his car pit all of my belongings in his so why take a second car. When we got to his place I helped him take my belongings inside. His place was small but cozy at the same time. Surprisingly I wasn't uncomfortable around him. I don't know why but he makes me feel safe when I am around him. I barely even know him but I know I can trust him.
