Lucas P. O. V.

I wake up, I look around,its dark. There's a quick flash of lightning, and loud boom of thunder, wich makes Riley jerk awake with a scream.

"it's okay. " I wisper in her ear.
"what time is it? " she ask

"I don't know." I reply, sitting up
"what! " she says, while her eyes widen.
"come on, the power is out! All we need to do, is go downstairs and look at the battery clock, or our phones." I say
"okay. " she says

I go down stairs with Riley behind me.

I feel for her phone on the counter.

"It is 8:30! " I say shocked
"what! " she squeals
I grab my phone, wich is right next to hers, and run upstairs. I quickly hit the flashlight button, and shine the bright light into my moms bedroom. No one.

There are five voicemails on my phone, they are all from my mom.

In Each of them, she says something about a huge flood. Wich is confusing me.

"Lucas! " I hear Riley scream.

I run downstairs as fast as I can. When I find Riley she's standing at the window, staring outside. I walk up behind her and see why she's staring.

There's water completely covering the ground, outside! And it's still raining!

I quickly turn off my phone, and so the same with hers.

"why'd you do that? " she ask
"to save the battery. " I reply
"Lucas, I'm scared! " she says, panic clear in her voice.
"me too Riley, me too" I say, pulling her to my chest.
"oh no!" she whispers
"what? " I question
"Max and Mom! " she says
"what about them? " I ask
"they'll kill me if I'm not home! " she says
"Riley, you can't even make it home! They evacuated the streets! Cars had to be abandoned! My mom is stuck in a hotel down the street!" I say
"oh" is all she says

I notice a few tears streaming down her face! I bring her eyes to mine.

"look, it's gonna be ok, I love you." I say looking into her eyes.
"I love you too. " she says with a smile.

Hey guys, it's meh!
