Power outage

I throw my compass at Emmy and she spins her head around.

"Hey, bitch!" She says as she rubs her arms where i hit her.

"Sorry, i was bored." I smile as i swing back on my chair a bit. Ozzy snorts from beside me and she scowls at him, making him press his lips together.

"Ugh i can't believe it's only Friday, this week has lasted tweleve days." I huff, putting the tip of my pen in my mouth.

"Honestly, i wonder if there's gonna be any parties on the weekend." Emmy twirls a orange curl around her finger.

"I think i'm gonna sit out on parties for a while." I sigh.

"Oh, shit, yeah maybe not." Em winces, remembering my last party interaction.

"Well if i'm honest, that only happened because you went with creepy psycho Chuck." Ozz states.

"Okay, no need to tell me, i know i'm an idiot and i should've listened to you guys." I look up at the ceiling

"No, i didn't mean it like that, i just meant that wouldn't happen usually, he's just a bit on the unstable side." Ozz explains.

"Figures." I give him a tight lipped smile.

"Whatever, just don't let him ruin your experience here, he's a tosser." Ozz sits back in his seat.

The bell rings and everyone starts packing up.

"Uh, class. The bell doesn't dismiss you, i do." Mrs Brown crosses her arms at the front of the class.

Everyone continues packing up and she just sighs, knowing she wont get anywhere with us.

That's the dumbest teacher phrase ever; what the fuck is the bell there for?

We walk up the stairs to the second floor because a bunch of sophomore decided now would be the perfect time to see how many of them could go down in the elevator.

I spot Lane walking towards us and smile.

He smiles back and gives us a brief wave as he closes the distance between us.

"Free period lads, lets go!" Ozzy says in a very boyish manner which makes me laugh.

"Mortal Kombat?" Emmy asks and we all cheer.

It's the super violent video game we've been trying to play all week.

"Who's on snacks?" Ozz asks.

"Me." I say, at the same time as Lane says "I'll go."

"Okay, we'll just meet you up at the dorm." Ozzy says, taking Em's hand and heading towards the stairs pulling her along.

"They're definetely gonna have a quickie." Lane says as they dissapear up into the stairwell quickly.

"Yeah we should probably take our time." I laugh.

The lift is free now, so we walk over and i press the button. There's no way i'm walking the two flights of stairs to the ground floor.

The elevator opens and I step inside, Lane behind me.

He presses the ground floor button and the doors close in front of us.

"You're paying." Lane says simply.

"No! That doesn't start until next week." I huff. It's his fault i lost the stupid race anyway, i don't see how thats fair.

"What's one more day." He looks at me, smirking.

"You're a dick, did you know that Evans?" I scrunch my nose up.

Lane does a little bow. "I do try."

"Well jokes on you because i didn't bring any money." I smile. Of course i have money.

Lane steps over, towering in front of me.

He takes the opening of my blazer in his hands and gently pushes me back into the elevator wall.

My breath hitches as he looks down at me, a wicked grin on his face.

And he shakes my blazer.

The sound of coins rustle in my pocket, giving me away. What a prick!

I shove him off me as he laughs, annoyed that i got caught.

Suddenly the elevator juts, before coming to a stop.

Lane and I look at eachother. Um, what's happening?

It makes a dodgy noise, before the lights power off. It's pitch black.

"Phone." Lane says as i hear him rustle in his pocket.

I pull my phone out and switch on my flash as he does the same.

"Those kids from earlier are fucking idiots." Lane groans.

I slide down against the wall and sit down. My head is spinning. We're stuck.

We're gonna be in here forever. No ones gonna find us.

My breathing becomes strangled as i try to take deep breaths. I can't breath. There's no oxygen. We're gonna die.

"Carter?" Lane says as he sits down beside me.

I try to speak but no sound leaves my mouth.

He places a hand on my arm.

I close my eyes in attempts of slowing down my heart rate. I think i'm gonna throw up.

Lane takes my hand in his, and looks down at it.

"You're shaking." He states. "Jules are you having a panic attack?"

I don't reply, my mouth too dry to speak.

We're stuck here. Forever. Oh my god.

As i open my eyes, Lane shifts in front of me. Then he takes my face in his hands.

His eyes flicker between between mine, a look of urgency surfacing.

He moves his hand from my cheek down to my chin, holding it between his thumb and forefinger.

And he kisses me.

He presses his lips against mine, and kisses me.

My eyes widen as his lips melt into mine. I close my eyes and let myself soften at his touch.

His mouth is warm, a faint taste of peppermint on his tongue. The nauseous feeling in my stomach is replaced by butterflies.

Lane Evans is kissing me.

I place my hands on his chest, gripping on to his jumper as his tongue slips between my lips.

His other hand that still rested on my cheek snaked around to the back of my neck, pushing us together further.

I accidentally let a soft moan slip from my mouth and my eyes snap open. Why did i just do that?

I loosen my grip on his jumper and gently press at his torso, pushing him back.

He pulls away and looks into my eyes, breathing heavily. I stare back at him, my lips slightly parted from where his just were.

He looks back down at my lips briefly, before moving back away from me and clearing his throat.

"I-i saw somewhere that, uh, kissing someone can take their mind off the panic." He explains, sitting down.

I nod, still unable to process what just happened in the space of 5 minutes.

"Do you feel better?" Lane asks, holding the light to my chest so it illuminates my face but doesn't blind me.

"Mhm." I whisper.

He smiles and then looks down at his phone. "I'll try and text Ozz."

How is he so cool about this. We just flipping kissed. And i enjoyed it. What the hell is wrong with me.

Does he think i'm a bad kisser? Oh my gosh, he does doesn't he.

He absolutely hated every second of that. Fuck.

"Power outage. The teachers are trying to sort it out." He reads from his phone.

"Does anyone know we're in here." I lean my head back on the wall behind me.

"Yeah Ozz told them, they said we'll be fine it's safe in here." He looks up and gives me a reassuring smile.

I let out a sigh of relief. We'll be fine.

"Thank you Evans. You really didn't have to do... that." I tilt my head to look at him.

"It was nothing, don't sweat it." He nods.

It was nothing. Damn. Why did that hurt? Of course, he only did it to surprise me. Why else.

I let my eyes close for a brief moment.

Just as i do, the elevator makes a weird noise and the lights flicker on. It begins moving as before.

Lane gets to his feet and puts a hand out. I take it as he helps pull me up and into his body.

The familiar warmth that i love passes through my body as he wraps his arms around me.

I hug his waist and take a deep breath, his musky vanilla sent soothing me.

As i pull away he ruffles my hair, a smirk on his face.

"Ass." I huff, smoothing it back down.

The doors open and we step out. I take a deep breath and blow it out through my lips.

"Well that was our free period wasted." He groans, running a hand through his hair.

Ozzy and Em jog over to the lift as we step out.

"Oh my gosh, are you two okay?" Emmy pulls me into an embrace as soon as she's close enough.

I hug her back and smile "Yeah, we're fine."

"What happened in there? I'm surprised you both came out alive." Em laughs as she pulls away.

"Nah, they were probably making out." Ozzy jokes.

I clear my throat and Lane rubs the back of his neck, looking away.

Our friends look between us. Emmy's jaw drops in realisation and Ozzy's eyes are practically bursting out of his head.

Oops.
