"911. What's the nature of your emergency?" the operator asked.
"I think I smell smoke coming from my neighbor's townhouse—"
"What's the address, ma'am?"
"241 Belleview Court."
"How many people live there?"
"Two. Two people live there. It used to be just Grissom, that's the guy's name, living there but I think his lady friend moved in permanently—"
"Ma'am?" the operator interrupted. "Do you know if anyone is home?"
"I'm not sure since my neighbors tend to keep somewhat odd hours, but I think I hear music. Oh, God! I don't know what to do. I tried knocking on their door—"
"Stay calm, okay? And please stay on the line. We're dispatching the fire department right now. They should be there shortly."
"Thank you. Please tell them to hurry!"
A/N2: Yeah, I know…how could I leave it there? Well, I can because the rest is unedited (lol) but I felt like posting the start of a new story that I've been working on...
A/N3: Oh, I made German chocolate cupcakes today for my mom's birthday (am I not sweet?) so I'll send you one virtually along w/ a sneak peek if you would like :)
