Chapter Ten

"So how do you know George?" we've been driving for while now and nothing has been said so i might as well start a conversation. And ive been quite confused on how they know each other since it came forward.

"We uh, we had a few classes together last year" he clears his throat
He seems utterly nervous for some reason "Oh what classes?" im pressuring him now.
"I honestly don't remember" i see him twist at the rings on his fingers "history maybe?"
"Hm" i wanted more information but that's obviously all hes willing to give me right now so i let it subside. Ill get more later.

I ask another question because he's weirdly quiet and if im stuck in this car with him i might as well get something out of it. "Whos this mystery man we're going to meet?"
He takes a deep breath "hes- well you'll see. I have a you could say a diverse group of friends"
"Oh a friend" i nod as i speak "so hes not gonna kill me or anything" he looks at my fully "you think im taking you to be murdered?"

I laugh "well i dont know you very well you know? and ive never met this friend of yours, i have no idea where you're driving me right now. Could be to certain doom." He chuckles at that "please Angela, if i wanted to kill you i would've done it already" he gives me one of those big smiles of his.

When we arrive at the house Eddie pulls into the driveway and when we hope out of the truck we dont go to front door like any normal person. No we sneak around to the back.

Eddie pulls out a walkie talkie from his pocket "oh my god you know we have phones right?" i yell at him. "Yea but these are more fun" and he rolls his eyes at me.

"Dustin" Eddie says into the walkie talkie "this is Dustin speaking" the voice on the other end come back almost immediately "Dustin we're here i need you to let us in at the back door"
"Okie Dokie" the voice replies

"And you couldn't just call each other?" i ask annoyed. Eddie just rolls his eyes again

When the door opens there stood is a small curly head brunette boy who couldn't be over fourteen. He has the biggest smile on his face when he sees us. I laugh out loud a little "This is your magic friend?" I ask mostly to Eddie while pointing at Dustin

"Jesus Christ just get inside" Eddie shoves me inside. When i really take in the place around me i realize its a basement, they led me to a basement? Now would be the time i would think im getting murdered but looking around it looks like a place a child would live, artwork all around, funny patterned carpet, action figures. Maybe i wont die.

"Hi" Dustin says and i have to look down to look at him but he's actually adorable "Hi" i raise my hand for a handshake and he does the same "Im Angela" i say "Im Dustin" he replies

I walk behind him to look around and i sit at this small couch on the other side from where we came in, theres games and a tv, some crayons and paper. I feel quite safe here. "Your haunted friends kinda pretty" I hear Dustin say to Eddie and thats when i realize hes here to, i actually forgot he was here for a minute. "Dont you have a girlfriend?" Eddie says back "Yea but you don't" Dustin replies.
I look over and Eddie lightly slaps Dustin in the face "Stop being a dork" Eddie says back and they both walk over to where im sitting.

"Okay so Ang as you see this is my friend Dustin and he can help you with whatever it is you're dealing with, sorry im still not clear" I nod at him "thats fine" i look over to Dustin "its nice to meet you" He keeps staring at me and laughs with his mouth open which Eddie has to pat him on the shoulder to get him in focus again "get it together buddy we're here to help Angela not gawk at her" and i laugh as Dustin sits up "right" he grabs a few papers on top the table in front of us. "You said you were seeing things, like monsters and bats and stuff when you were hallucinating right?" Dusting asks me "yea i know it sounds stupid-" he cuts me off "no i believe you im just trying to get the facts straight"
"oh" i murmer
