False alarm.

"There's a fire! Get up!" When my sister banged open the bedroom door, I heard the fire alarm. I hurriedly pulled on jeans, scooped up Lucien, who was the sack of potatoes poster boy, and scrambled out to the main door. When I opened it, I noticed our neighbors milling about in the corridor, but not panicking. There were two security guards who kept going back and forth near the elevator area. 

My sister walked out to the guards and came back shaking her head. "It's a false alarm." "Wha?" "They don't know who did it, but someone pressed the button and it won't come back up. It's stuck." 

So to the sound of the fire alarm, Luc and I went back to sleep.
