I arrive at Mike's house and storm in the basement. 'Hey everyone, sorry I'm late.'
Mike, Eddie and Lucas smile. 'Hey dude, come on, we were about to start.' Lucas says.
I sit down and Eddie starts.
'He wasn't only missing his left arm, he was also missing his left eye.' Eddie yells. 'WHAT? VECNA?! HE WAS KILLED DUMBASS.' Mike yells.
'So it was thought, my friend, so it was thought. But Vecna, Vecna LIVES.' He slams his hand on the table.
'Hey guys? I gotta go. Sorry.' I pack my bag and run outside, get my bike and bike home. Yeah, home.
I come home and run to my room to drop my bag. I hear Steve coming home and run downstairs. 'Hey, Henderson, I can't cook tonight, we're gonna have to order something.' He says. 'Okay, sure. I can order something.' I answer.
'DUSTIN! Dustin, can you please open the goddamn door?!' Steve yells. 'OH, SHIT, YEAH!' I run downstairs and open the door. 'Here you go.' I give the pizza delivery 10 bucks and close the door.
'Jesus, are you deaf?' Steve asks irritated.
'What? No!' Steve looks at me with a fringe in his eyebrows. Like he wants to say: 'seriously?'.
'I'm not deaf Steve. If your ears are so great, why didn't you open the door?' Steve opens the pizza box. 'You had the money.' He cuts the pizza and drops it on his plate quickly. 'Shit, it's hot.' He waves his hand because he burnt himself. I kind of wanna laugh, but i'm sure he'll get in a bad mood, so I hide my laugh. 'So, what did you do today?' Steve asks.
'I went to Mike's. You know, to play D&D with Eddie and Lucas.' I answer. 'This Eddie again? What's so special about that guy?' Steve scoffs. 'Steve. What the hell, you're jealous?!' I laugh. Steve looks at me and acts like he doesn't give a shit, I can see he cares. 'Don't worry, he's nothing like you.' I try to comfort him with the idea I have another older male friend.
'What, me, jealous of a freak? He's probably a drug dealer or something.' He finishes the pizza and licks his fingers. 'This pizza is good, oh my god.' He says with his mouth full.
We watch the news.
'People are going crazy, because they think Eddie killed those people. They're scared he's looking for his next victim. Please stay safe in your house, only go outside for a good reason.'
'DUSTIN, DUSTI- CODE RED!' Max yells in the walkie talkie. I quickly pick it up. 'What? What's wrong?' Steve and I are hanging above the walkie talkie. 'Just- please come to Lucas's house. I can't explain it like this. Call Steve.' Max says. 'Steve is here already.' Steve says proudly. 'Of course. Just come here, now!' I turn of the walkie talkie and run to the door. Steve stays on the sofa. 'What are you doing? Let's go, dumbass!' I yell. 'Maybe Max is in danger.' I continue. 'STEVE!' Steve finally understands and stands up. 'Yeah, yeah, let's go.'
We get in the car.
