Magical time lapse of 3 weeks

Its been 3 weeks.. Mikey, Jay and I have become best friends. We practically have done everything together.

I look at my phone, 8:05 PM it reads.. Why aren't my parents home now? They normally get home around 5-6 PM everyday.. I call my mom, no answer, I call my dad, no answer... What is going on.. I begin to worry, but I calmed myself down and got into the shower, I was suddenly rushed out of the shower by the lights flickering overhead and then going out, I jumped out of the shower and ran downstairs and looked out the window, great a power outage... every ones power on my street was out. I began to panic, I hate the dark, which yes its odd considering I'm 16 years old but whatever, and to make it worse my parents are not home, and they haven't answered my phone calls..

"WHAT IS HAPPENING" I Scream.. I begin to panic, and cry at the same time, a mini panic attack not as bad as the used to be but I'm freaking out. I don't know what to do or who to call. I run upstairs and grab my phone, luckily it was charging before the power outage, I'm at 100%... I try my mom and dad one last time, no answer.. I fell to the floor crying. I look through my contacts and call Mikey.

"Hello? " He answers

I tried not to cry but I did " this is so weird the powers out i'm freaking out, my parents are not home i'm scared, can you please come over?"

" Are you ok? Calm down, what's going on?"

" Just please come over" I pleaded one last time

"ok I'll be right over"

I quickly put on a shirt and some joggers and ran sat on the floor surrounded by my flashlight and computer light... stupid darkness

MIKEY POV

As soon as I got off the phone with Laila I ran to tell my mom where I was going, I grabbed my phone and ran out the door.

End POV

I heard a knock on the door it must be mikey, I ran downstairs and opened the door.

"are you ok? whats wrong?" He shouted

" My parents aren't home and this darkness thing and I don't know" I pulled him inside.

"well we should probably get some flashlights" Mikey said

I led him to the flashlights, we went to the living room and sat down surrounded by flashlights, that's more like it...

I don't know what happened really, but next thing I know Mikey and I were both asleep. I woke up around 1:30 AM, the power was back, still no sign of my parents.. I checked my phone, no text or call. I began to cry silently, I guess not so silently though, it woke Mikey up.. He got up and walked to where I was standing. He hugged me tighter then he ever had before. We both walked back to the couch, this time the same one and got under the same blanket. I laid my head on his chest.  I felt better.

We woke up the next morning around 6:40, Mikey's mom brought him some clothes and breakfast, she asked if we needed a ride to school so we said yea. We got to school around 7:50. The first few periods went by slow, I kept checking my phone for signs of my parents... nothing... what is happening..  During third period the principle walked in and asked to talk to me outside.

MIKEY POV

The principle walked into our History class, I had the same class as Laila, It was cool... even though we don't sit next to each other. Laila got up and followed him outside, they were talking for a while. Laila came back in.... Crying?... she grabbed her bag and left the class. I stood up, "Mr.Jimenez stay seated class isn't over yet" I sat back down... What is going on?

END POV

I ran out as fast as I could, I needed to get out of this school, I needed to be home. I ran out the school doors and ran all the way home crying, when I got home I slammed the door and fell to the floor balling my eyes out. "why!" I screamed, I was angry and sad.

MIKEY POV

As soon as class got out I hurried to find jay.

"hey du" I cut him off

"Jay, Laila left class crying."

"what, what happened" Jay replied

"I don't know, the principal came in and asked to talk to her, I mean her parents didn't come home last night."

"what do you mean didn't come home?"

" she called me panicking last night I went over"

" You what!? are you guys like a thing?

" JAY! that's not important right now, I need to find out if she's ok"

I pulled out my phone and called her, she declined, I tried 3 more times, declined.

I texted her "LAILA PLZ ANSWER " the texting bubbles came up, and then disappeared.

I need to go, I called my mom and told he what happened, I asked her to call the school for early dismissal, she agreed.

" Jay I'm getting out early to go find her, I will keep you updated."

"ok be safe dude"

As soon as the office let me know I could leave I sprinted to her house.

I knocked on the door, no answer, I knocked again, this time more forcefully. "LAILA OPEN THE DOOR PLZ"

She finally opened the door and fell into my arms crying inconsolably. I moved inside and closed the door. I sat on the floor.. She just cried for 45 minuets straight I didn't move at all..

END POV
