Surviving the Apocalypse with my Multiplier System novel Chapter 99

Rayne broke free from his embrace and turned to face him. "You better not snore! I’ll throw endless amounts of pillows at you if you do!" she teased, causing them both to burst out laughing.

She walked around the small bedroom and pulled out two identical twin bedframes. "Come, help me put these together," she invited him over, motioning to him with her hand.

They spent the next hour assembling the bedframes, laughing and joking with each other in the process.

"Ugh! We finally finished putting this one together. Let me just store it in my system and make a copy so we don’t have to spend another hour putting together the second one," Rayne said dramatically.

She felt that this bedframe was incredibly annoying to put together. If she still had access to the internet, she would have even gone to write a bad review about it.

Julian stood up, eagerly agreeing with her idea. The instructions were confusing, and none of the parts were labeled. They had to redo many steps just to get things to fit correctly.

Rayne placed her hand on the assembled bedframe and gave the mental command to store it. She also took the unopened box for the second frame and placed it in her system trash bin, wanting to remove it from her sight before she got the urge to toss it through the window.

Julian helped her wipe the floor once more, clearing away all the small dust and debris from the assembly process before Rayne took out the completed bedframes.

She placed the first one against the left wall and the other frame against the right wall. This left just enough space for a small nightstand beneath the window between the two beds.

Once the hard part of setting up the bedframes was done, she went through her system to try out different mattresses.

"Here, test out a few of these mattresses and choose the one you like the most," she said after laying a different one on each bed.

Julian went over, and they took turns lying on different mattresses as Rayne rotated them out until they found their favorite ones.

"I think it’s this one for me. I like the slightly firmer ones," Julian said, standing up off the bed.

Rayne nodded. "I think I like this one the best as well." She laid out a copy of that mattress on each bed and removed all of the others.

All that was left to do was lay out the bedsheets and blankets and add the pillows. She chose a set of soft linens and warm blankets while adding the finishing touches to the bedroom.

Julian walked back into the bedroom and admired the finished room. "It looks so cozy. You did a great job. Thank you, Rayne."

"Thank you. Did you finish the bathroom?" she asked cheerfully.

"Yes! Installed the new showerhead, put up the new shower curtain, and placed all of the toiletries in their respective places!" he reported.

Rayne smiled at him. "Thank you. I think we should have an extra special meal tonight to celebrate!" They had been either traveling or waiting in line for most of the day, only having a chance to eat a few bites in between.

Now that they had finally settled, she wanted to take the opportunity to make something hearty and special.

Before long, a wonderful scent spread throughout the house, making Julian antsy to eat. He was currently lying on the couch with Rayne, watching a TV show on her laptop. freewёbnoνel.com
