Twenty four streets away

Chapter five

It was finally the day that Chris Jake and I would see that movie together, also known as Saturday. It isn't that big of a deal but this could be the start of something between Jake and I. My heart just liked him so much and I couldn't stop.

I was wearing a pair of white jeans with a cream jumper and some light brown low cut boots, like the ones I wore the previous Wednesday. My brown hair was tied back at the middle of my head into a pony tail. I was pretty happy with how I looked because almost half of my clothes were currently being washed from being vomited on by my dog yesterday. That ruined my whole Saturday.

The line outside the cinema was so long it lead all the way down the streets and up the hilly roads so I decided to sneak in through the back door which was also known as the emergency door. Luckily there is no surveillance cameras back there which would make it easier for me to not get caught.

I run down the side of the movie block to where the back door was located. I study the area around me just to make sure nobody was looking. I turn the door handle and step into the room. Before turning around to close the door, two boys scream something at me that I don't process quick enough to follow their commands.

"NO NO NO NO DON'T SHUT THE DOOR" The voice shouts.

"STOP DO NOT CLOSE THE DOOR" The other voice yells.

But it was too late I had shut the door.

"Lauren" The dark haired boy face palms himself.

It was Chris and Jake both sitting like retards in the corner of the room.

"Oh my goodness guys what happened" I ask, and can't help let out a giggle.

"So Chris and I saw that the line was wayyyy to long for our likings" Jake sighs and gestures Chris to explain the rest of their hideous story.

"And then I decided to come in through the back door, so obviously we did and when we got in the room which is where we all are stuck now.. We only then realised that this building is kind of new and they haven't really finished this part of it yet. Practically we have no where to go" Chris mumbles the last part.

"Goodness, how are we going to get out" I laugh sitting down next to Jake.

"Maybe I can text my mu- actually never mind my phone is completely flat" Jake realises his phone was flat and becomes speechless.

"I could've texted someone to but uh my data is all used" Chris leans back onto the wall.

"Lauren? Are you able to call anyone" Jake asks adorably.

I cover my mouth trying not to laugh.

"What's so funny? " Chris says in a confused tone.

"You guys are little idiots, there is a phone on the wall right there" I point to the wall two metres above Jake' s head.

They both face palm their heads.

"How can we reach up there? " Jake scratches his neck.

"We can lift up Lauren" Chris smirks.

"Whatever" I role my eyes sarcastically and then chuckle.

I climb onto Chris's back and reach up to the telephone.

"I, I can't reach" I mumble stretching my arm out as far as it could possibly go.

Chris lowers me down to the ground safely and then Jake offers another idea. He climbs on top of Chris and I climb on top of him. I finally become a closer distance to the phone and I dial the movie cash register people. A nice sounding lady picks up the phone.

"Hello this is SunVills cinemas, how may I help you"

"Uh long s- story but my friends and I are stuck in the emergency room" I stutter not really knowing what it say.

Would we be in trouble

"Don't worry guys, it's been the seventh time today someone has called in for help from that room. I understand the line is long and I would do exactly the same thing if I were in your shoes. All you need to do is go to the right side of the room where the light is more dimmed than the left. The key is in the corner, when your done just put it back there in that exact corner. Thanks for calling bye" She hangs up the call and I follow her orders.

"Could you let us down now? " Jake asks.

"Sure" Chris laughs lowering us to the ground.

"Your pretty strong aren't you, for holding both of our weights for that long" I smile and pat Chris on his head twice.

"Yeah I guess" He kisses his arm muscles.

I roll my eyes sarcastically.

Jake unlocks the door and I place the key back where we had found it.

"Sunlight! " Jake slides some sunglasses over his eyes.

"Sunlight" I imitate him and chuckle.

"Oh man! All the movie sessions are either sold out or playing right now as we speak, we'll never make it in time" Chris sighs.

"That's alright, I enjoyed being in a room locked up with you two for about ten minutes anyway" I confess glancing at my silver watch to check the time. It was two o'clock.

"Me too" Jake smiles with his hands in his pockets looking from in front of him to my eyes.

I smile back.

"Let's just go back to my house and watch the fault in our- " Jake starts but I eventually cut him off.

"I love that movie" I sigh happily like a fan girl.

I am in between Jake and Chris. They were both so into the movie I couldn't help laughing at how emotional they were being.

"You guys are so emotional" I chuckle.

"B- but it's just so sad" Jake blushes in embarrassment.
