Summary
Hey! I'm new to AO3—though not new to writing fanfiction. This is my first time posting here, and I’m both excited and nervous to share my work.
So... 10 Cloverfield Lane. Like many of you, I was devastated when Emmett died 😭. I kept thinking: What if things went differently? What if he survived—and what if he and Michelle actually had a chance?
That idea stuck with me. So I wrote an alternate ending. One where Emmett lives. Where he gets the girl. Where they find a little hope in the middle of the horror. Because let’s be honest, their chemistry was undeniable, right? If you agree—or even if you’re just curious—I hope you’ll join me on this ride. 💛Small note: I wrote this with the help of ChatGPT. The story, dialogue, and plot are all mine—GPT just helped polish the grammar and flow.
Also, after writing, I learned someone else explored a similar “Emmett lives” idea back in 2016. Great minds! A little overlap may exist, but this version has its own voice, tone, and ending.
Thanks so much for reading. I hope you enjoy this alternate take on Michelle and Emmett’s story. 💛 -

Summary
It was three months before anything bad happened.
Three months of mind-numbing domesticity. They were just playing house in the bunker, a tiptoe dance around each other. There was an uncomfortable atmosphere, an unsureness in every action. A constant push and pull of tension. (A constant push-pull of will they won't they. Will they won't they fall apart.)
Howard had the gun: he made the rules. Whatever he wanted, they’d have to do, or he might kill them. Neither of them would be able to fight him off: maybe if they could get the gun, but even then, he was so much bigger than them.

Summary
Sometimes Michelle sneaks away to the airlock. She opens the inner door and goes right up to the outer one, pressing her hand against the glass, feeling the cold through it. She doesn’t know why she’s looking – to search for signs of life, to try to figure out what the hell’s going on out there, to test her star-reading skills, to check how the plants are doing, to see the sky.
To remind herself that there is some kind of world out there, still, and that she misses it, and that she’s going to return to it one day. -
