WP - You Are On The Space Station and Earth Implodes

Well. There goes everything. Mom. Dad. The dog. My overpriced internet and cable bundle. The smell of the ocean. Those tea kettles with the netting so you can make loose-leaf tea. Why me? Out of all the great people who just died a fiery, horrid death, why am I still alive? I'm just the person they hired to do a safety inspection on this space station. And now I'm one of the only human beings left in the universe. 
 Commander Dawes floated around behind me. 
 `` So what do we do now?'' I said. Not that I expected a legitimate order. 
 `` Well, what are your feelings on Texas hold'em?'' 
 `` Are you serious? Should n't we be trying to contact any survivors or the other space stations?'' 
 `` We contacted China and Russia. There were a few people on both. We're going to try to link up with them but it might take a while, our orbits are different. On a side note, have you ever had sex in space, Major?'' 
 I was slightly appalled but honestly I was too shocked at the previous events of the Earth imploding to be offended. 
 `` Well, I did n't have a boyfriend, even if I did he'd be dead now.'' 
 `` I left a wife and two kids down there.'' The Commander said. 
 After a few moments of silence for our lost loved ones I repeated, `` So what do we do now?'' 
 `` We wait for the end. Or shoot for the moon. Whatever comes first.'' He smiled, but I could tell he was terrified.
