I stood back willingly as the mindflayer struggled under the sparks of the fireworks, Billy sprung from the ground and roared at the mindflayer, I screamed as it stuck its septants into billy, i raced to him before it stuck the last one into his heart. "Billy dont leave me, please." "Take care of max for me, i love you els." "But-" "Promise me els." I sob uncontrollably. "I promise, I love you too billy, youll always be my best friend. And he was gone, there layed his lifeless body, that day was the day i forever changed. i lost everything.
"You wanted him to die."

I shot up from my sleep, "No." I whispered, great. it was that stupid nightmare again, I hear a knock on my door.

"Elodie wake up, we're going to be late." I groan. "Its that time already?"

Ive always took Steve as my brother, maybe not biologically but he's been there for me since it happened and he's treated me like his very own sister and i admire that.

I stumble towards the bathroom and brush my teeth and hair and do some light makeup to cover somewhat of the bags under my eyes, for the past day or so ive been having this nightmare about Billy, sort of a flashback and it's getting irritating, what intrigues me the most is that weird voice that always wakes me up at the end which is why i have these bags.

I throw on a oversized hoodie and some sweatpants and grab my bag before heading out to Steve who was jingling the keys at the door.

"Jesus all this waiting just for you to look like a trashbag again." I throw a peace of toast at him before heading to the back of the car and pulling my headphones over my head.

"Robins going to eat you alive so be prepared." Metallica has always been my band of choice, they always brighten my mood a bit whenever i blast there music threw my ears, sort of a comfort and there songs are always long.

"Els are you even listening?" I look up and see Steve side eyeing me so i stop the music that was filling my ears and take off the headphones.

"What is it now." Robin turns to look at you. "He's on about sex with  Linda."

"No no no not Linda, im on about Heidi." I place my face in my hands. "I dont think your sister wants to listen to your sex life." I pat Robins shoulder. "Thank you!"  Steve continues.

"Anyways then theres Heidi but the problem with Heidi is that shes moving out of state for college, so its like do i really want to start a relationship that has no point other than sex? i mean just like i dont know, does that make sense to you?"

I scoff and mouth "what the fuck" to Robin, she snorts. "Robin, Elodie are you listening to me?. "no" I murmur. "Yes im im listening." "What did i say then?" "Im telling you, it was something about Linda." Steve groans.

"No, for the last time, Heidi!" My eyes widen. "Cut us and me some slack please!" I nod my head in agreement.

"Your love life is one of labyrinthiam complexity and it is 7 in the morning, we have to go to this stupid pep rally and i woke up looking like a total corpse!" I slide around the side of the seat to her.

"You look beautiful." She smiles at me. "Thank you, but thats not the point!" Elodie looks at Steve and they both look back at Robin. "What?" Steve scoffs.

"Oh, your worried about a basketball pep rally? you expect us to believe that?" "yeah so?" I pop my head around the seat again.

"So, we both know what this is about okay?" Robin avoids eye contact, continuing to apply her mascara.

"We're not buying that bullshit, its about Vickie." Steve says as he quickly looks at Robin and back at the road. "Absolutely not." She spits out at the both of us. "Yes it is!" Steve continues, "And you know what else i think?" Robin stops fixing her lips and turns to glare at Steve.

"I really don't care." "I think you got to stop pretending to be someone else when your around her, okay?" I nod my head in agreement.

"You just got to be yourself." "Yeah" i butt in. "Your literally quoting me to me, you do realise that." I let out a laugh.

"Well, maybe you need to listen to yourself, ever think about that smarty pants? I mean i listen to you and look at me, boom, back in business." Robin turns her attention fully to Steve now.

"Its not the same thing."  "Well-." Robin cuts him off. "Okay? hm. You ask a girl out and she says no, big deal, nothing happens, maybe your egos a little bruised but i ask out the wrong girl and bam, im a town pariah."

I stop thinking for a minute to process all of this. "Okay yeah i buy that except Vickie is definitely not the wrong girl." I speak up again. "That is true."

"Well we just dont know that do we" Steve goes on again. "She returned Fast times, paused at 53 minutes and 5 seconds, do you know who pauses Fast times at 53 minutes and 5 seconds?" "People who like boobies." Robin makes a disgusted face. "Ew gross, don't. say. boobies."

"Big deal, okay, I like boobies, you like boobies, Vickie likes boobies, maybe even Elodie likes boobies."

I smack Steve across the back of the head. We arrive, as he parks up the car i sink into the back seat, "Cmon kid, time to go in." I groan in frustration and open the car door, Robin and Steve continue arguing beside me whilst i put my headphones back on, walking through the school and parting ways with Robin and Steve to my first class, Math.
