Drabble #30: Up In Flames

Prompted by: from a hopeless teen


Patricia

Black smokes filled the air, ash and soot falling to the ground as we speak. Just minutes ago I was in my room, listening to music. That's part of the reason I didn't hear anyone yelling- there was a fire. And I was in the middle of it right now. Anubis house went up in flames, unexpected to all of us. I had smelled the thick air, and began noticing the change in temperature. It felt as if I was as close as the sun.

"Ah!" I yelped, as a banister came falling down, burning my foot. I ignored the pain, and managed to make it down the stairs. Problem was, the front door was blocked, and it was getting very hard to see. "Help! HELP!" I screeched. There was a banging at the door. It began cooling down by the front door. Then someone came in: Eddie. "Eddie! Help me!" I shout.

"Yacker!" He yells. Part of the window frame from Victor's office falls between us, separating us.

"What do I do?!" I cry. Tears cascade down my cheeks, as smoke fills my lungs. I begin to cough. He then kicks the window frame, clearing a path for me.

"Come on!" He yells, as we pass through the door. Emergency teams are spread out in the grounds of the school, lights flashing everywhere. "Yacker..." He whispers, pulling me to him. I wrap my arms around him, feeling his warmth.

"Excuse me? Did you just come out from there?" An official asks.

"Yeah, why?" I return.

"We just need to check you out real quick. Him too." He answers, bringing is over to the truck. He puts us both on an oxygen mask, and takes our blood pressure, then begins to run several other tests. "You should fine, but just drink a lot of water." They answer, while we nod. Eddie helps me off the truck, as we go find a bench to sit. Tears accidentally slip from my eyes, as I dry them quickly.

"Hey, what is it? I know that you wouldn't be crying over something like this..." He says cautiously, because usually I would snap at him.

"It's just... Anubis house is on fire! Or was... Whatever... This is where I grew up. We might not be able to come back here... You may have to go back to America..." I panic.

"Whoa whoa whoa, Yacker. Freeze." He instructs. "None of that is happening. I'm not going back to America. Trust me. Alright? As its fine... The firefighters will take care of it, okay? Just calm..." He assures me, as I lay my head on his shoulder.

"Yeah... I guess..." I sigh.

"There's the Yacker I know... And love..." He smiles, while I bring his lips to mine.
