Ozone Disco Tragedy

Yes, I was there. I saw everything. On how those people laughters turned into frightening clamour. That night—they are all happy indeed. While swaying up with the beat of music. Without knowing... it would be their last dance.
“Lunaíre! Let's come over to the party tonight!” my friend exclaimed. I dried my face with a towel and faced her. I gave her a shrug since I'm not fond of going out. “Nah. I just want to lay in my bed all day,” I said and walks out from the room. She followed my way.
“But your ex will gonna be there...” she teased. I stopped for a moment. “Yay! I got you!” she exclaimed and gave me that suspicious look. “Which one?” I rolled my eyes, but still waiting for her answer. For I am so damn curious.
“Maybe the four of them! Haha! Kidding. Of course, your the one that got away—Axis!” she giggled. “I could still remember how you cried because of hi—”
“Oh shut up, Lindsay. I've already moved on. So if you want to stay alive. Better keep your mouth shut, got it?” I hissed.
“So... you are not coming?” she pouted.
“Of course.”
“As expect—”
“I will.”
That's the biggest mistake I've made in my life. Now I see myself, mesmerized by the different lights filled in the room. Loud music ft. the lively ambiance. Their eyes were twinkling with bliss and dancing their heart out. Teens seems too rebellious. I can see how liberated they are, however, me as myself, started to like this vibes too.
Then my eyes started to wander around. Looking for someone, whose in the first place—reason why I came here. Despite of this crowded place, I manage to find him. How? Maybe just because, my heart tells where he is.
I smiled upon seeing him and my heart starts to pound. Same feeling when I've first met him. I was about to call his attention, when someone kissed him right in front of me.
And it was my bestfriend.
Lindsay.
Their fiery kisses brought pain in me. Like I was stabbed by a broken mirror in my chest. It hurts like hell, I felt betrayed.
Hatred reigns in me. And so I decided to burn their desires.
Yes. I am the one to blame.
If I can't rekindle my love with Axis again, then I’ll just burn this place instead.
They screamed out of fear. Running after death. Seeking for salvation.
138 people survived. 162 people died.
He died. And unfortunately, I survived.
I cried laughing my ass off. I am a great deceiver.
For I make myself believed, that he doesn't love me.
Wherein fact, he's the one who saved me.
