Me and JB 43

“Now, this wouldn’t be happening if I had a cell phone!” said Joey. Then, a flash of lightning lit up the sky.
“Oh no!” I cried. Then, POW ! A loud boom of thunder cracked. Hunter jumped and I let go of the leash. The she started running, Then, she was long gone.
“That was Mike’s dog!” said Joey. “I was supposed to watch him while he and his family were on vacation!” Oops. Nick got up and came over to us.
“What now?” he said. He put his arm around me.
“Ewww!” said Joey. He had to get a life.
“Hey, there’s a pay phone like two blocks away from here,” I said. “Does anyone have change?” Joey pulled out gummy bears from his pocket. Wow.
“I have some,” said Nick. He handed me some change.
“Be right back!” I said. I took off. Running like the wind as lightning struck and thunder boomed. I reached the pay phone.
“OUT OF ORDER !” it read. Crap. Then, I turned around. There she was. Miss Miley Cyrus. All dry under an umbrella and talking to someone on her pink i phone. Great.
“Oh, hello,” she said. “Need help?”
