The next few days, John and Jeremy taught me basic defense moves. At the end of the fourth day, I felt ready for anything. Which was a good thing. The next day I went to John’s house. I knocked on the door but nobody answered which was totally strange. Climbing the pea-plant support that was besides the house, I looked into John’s window to find John and Jeremy tied up while Flying Dragons surrounded them. John saw me and had the look of pure fear in his eyes. I signaled for him to be quiet and counted to three. I smashed the window and took out the guy nearest to me. Grabbing his Machine gun I swung around and shot the rest. Running towards the boys was when I heard some ticking. I looked behind me and saw a bomb at ten seconds left. I untied both guys and pushed them out the window. I saw them hit the ground and start running. As soon as I jumped out of the window, the bomb went off. I was knocked out cold. I woke up when I felt strong hands pull me out of the rubble.
“Baby! Baby, can you hear me? Baby!” I heard John say as he brushed the dirt off my face.
“John” I said quietly.
“Oh thank god!” John said as he hugged me tightly. I looked at his face to see tears running down his face. I reached up and rubbed them away with my thumb.
“Ssh. Don’t cry.” I said.
“I thought I lost you. Why would you do something that dangerous?” John asked.
“Cause I thought I would lose you.” I said.
“What about me?” said Jeremy as he came up to us. I got up and held my arms out. Jeremy ran into them.
“Don’t you ever do something stupid like that again.” Jeremy whispered into my ear. I nodded.
We all went back to Jeremy’s and my place. Mom and Dad were shocked that Jeremy was alive. As soon as they saw him they ran outside and hugged him so hard he couldn’t breathe. I chuckled and went into my room to change. I pulled of my shirt and threw it into the hamper. I froze when I heard the door open. I turned around to find John standing there.
“Your parents took Jeremy out for a while.” He said as he wrapped his arms around my waist. John pulled me close and gave me the best kiss ever.
