Luke watched from a window he had found in the building behind the venue, as fans were escorted from the venue by police. He prayed that they'd all be alright. While he and Calum were down there, a couple of fans were almost on the verge of passing out. Fortunately, the reports from the police and ambulance said that while there were a few asthmatic fans, no one had been injured in the fire, and nothing major had been damaged besides a few plastic seats and a packet of condoms.
Yeah...don't even ask how that got there.
"Luke..." Arzaylea's voice rang out through the pristine hallway, and Luke scooped up the smaller friend into a bear hug. She quickly wriggled out and punched him.
"OWWWWWW!!"
"Shut up skinny white boy."
"Hey!"
"Did you even check the news?"
"The arsonist attack is already on the fucking news?!?!?!?!?!?!"
"And who do you know who checks the news every single day because she has an obsession with Buzzfeed?"
"It's on Buzzfeed?!?!?!?!"
"We're in America! Everyone's on everything!"
She shoved him into the bathroom in the dressing room, and locked the door. Luke banged against the wood, only to be met with responses persuading him to get on his text messages. Sighing, he slouched in the shower, and opened his messages.
