High School Life (#Wattys2016)

Give Me a Miracle...

John POV
Oh my God, what am I supposed to do? Do I tell Luke how I feel? Oh my, give me a miracle! Suddenly, the fire alarms start ringing and the loudspeaker turns on. The principal, Mr. Medina, begins to speak in panic. "All classes line up and evacuate the building. A fire has broken out in the West Corridor. This is not a drill. Evacuate the premises as quickly as possible. The fire is quickly from the West Corridor to the Main Lobby," Mr. Medina stated. "Holy shit!" Luke screamed. The sounds of screams from the West Corridor of the building were heard from anyone in the Main Lobby. "John, go outside! Now! I have to go help those people in the West Corridor!" Luke screamed. "No, I won't leave you here!" I shouted. "John, we don't have a lot of time, get outside!!" Luke hollered. "Fine, but first-" I leaned in and kissed Luke. Surprisingly, instead of pushing away, he pulled me closer and held me by the waist. "Look, we don't have time for playing with each other's emotions now! I have to go help!" Luke said. "Go, I'll be waiting outside," I stated. What the hell did I do!!!??? Now I made things awkward...

Luke POV
The thick, black smoke was hard to see through. My lungs could only take in so much smoke, I felt as if I were going to pass out. "Hello????!!!!" I hollered. Screams were heard from behind the blocked doors of the Gymnasium. This is where the fire started, I thought. Smoke coming out from underneath the doors. I move the wood and rubble away from the doors and pry them open with my bare hands. There are two out of seven people unconscious. I carry the two unconscious students out the Gymnasium and lead the rest of the group out the building. Before getting to the exit, we hear a loud bang and see smoke and ash coming toward us. We run out the building exit at the main lobby and slow down when we got outside. All the students were in the street along with school staff and administration. Los Angeles Police Department and Fire Department arrive at the scene and the Paramedics right after. The unconscious students were taken to the hospital while the others were checked for injuries or burns. News reports say the gymnasium collapsed due to the fire's catastrophic force. The cause of the fire remains unknown. I can't find John anywhere. "Luke! Over here!" John said in the distance. I started walking passed the crowd of teenagers and ran to John while he did the same. John rain into my arms while I picked him up and spun him around. As put John down, he gave me a kiss, which actually felt good. I didn't care if the whole school was around. All that matters now is John, and only John.

Armando POV
"What happened?" I asked. "You fell unconscious due to smoke inhalation. You should be fine in a few hours. Do you remember what happened?" Dr. Maxwell asked. I was in the hospital. I felt dizzy. "All I remember is the gym was in flames. It looked as if all Hell broke loose in there," I replied. "Fire Department is investigating the scene. By the way, your father is at the receptionist desk sign your release forms," Dr. Maxwell added. But Dad is in Puerto Rico...

Zimbala POV (Don't get used to this)
FUCK YEAH, NO SCHOOL FOR A MONTH AND A HALF!!!! Hell yes. But, the gymnasium burned down and collapsed, and the West Corridor will be off limits when we get back. Who would throw a propane tank into a trail of lit gasoline? It just doesn't add up. I have to talk to Luke about this. The L.A. Times is calling him a hero. He went into the fire and help students out the building. Luke is so brave. God, he could've lost his life. We should go shopping later. Celebrate his courageous act. I don't think there's ever been a time Luke wasn't helping someone with anything. He helps with everything. Some people say he's just friendly and caring, others say he's a Kiss-Ass. I just think he's friendly to everyone. Luke is a little awkward when he's around some boy named John. He's one of the kids Luke usually defends. Luke gets all red around and doesn't like to stay for too long after helping him. Earlier, Luke almost exploded when he over to John and close to him. I'm pretty sure he just gets nervous because they're such good friends. I still wonder why Luke get like this though...

Luke POV
"Oh my God! Luke, why are you so dirty?" Liann said when I got in the kitchen of the house. "I went into the fire. I helped some students and the Physical Education teacher out of the gymnasium. Someone lit a trail of gasoline with a match and threw a propane tank. The Fire Department during a conference in front of the school and news broadcasts," I said. "Oh my God, are you hurt? Is anyone else injured?" Liann asked. "I'm fine, but two are in the hospital," I said casually. "Thank Jesus you're ok!!" Liann sobbed. She began to cry and I couldn't help but hug her. Liann and my foster father Jorge haven't adopted me yet, but I know they love me. It's hard to take care of 7 kids. Mikaela and I are the only two not adopted in this foster home. "Alright, um, go wash up. Dinner's almost ready. I made Baked Potatoes with a side of Snow Crabs Legs and Fries," Liann said. "Ok. I'll be here in maybe a half hour," I noted. "Alright, Jorge and I have something to speak to the family about," Liann stated excitingly. I go up to my room, grab my towel, and sat on my bed to think. John kissed me. What does that mean? Does he like me? Better question, do I like him?
