"None of us are immune from life's tragic times." - Unknown Almost like a bad dream you couldn't wake up from, seven boys find themselves in a rundown shelter full of desperate families ruined by disaster. Disease and death show no mercy, and everyone has lost someone. Growing up together and learning how to survive in the real world, the boys formed a new family, their own family. To protect each other was all they knew. OR PLEASE don't let my awful summary discourage you! I spent a really long time on this story and I'm /so tired/. It's a work in progress (editing-wise) but the entire thing is finished!! ------------ © 2020 Txeknee All rights reserved. DO NOT REPOST. Cross-posted on Ao3!
