"Hey Jupiter, how's your day?"

"Eh, you?"

Finney Blake and Oliver Jupe walk down the sidewalk back home, school finally over. Another drag of a day, but it was better than being at home. The two hold hands as they walk, far away enough from school to do so without getting picked on, and Gwen had already ditched the boys.

"You know, Robin didn't even wanna fight Moose, he was just talking shit" Finney shrugs

"You're the only one who didn't see him call him slurs, Finn" Oliver playfully rolls his eyes

"I was trying to catch up to you two, asshole. Today wasn't that great after science"

"Why?"

"I got chased into the bathroom by Buzz, Brady and Matty. Called me a queer and stuff but Robin came in trying to tape up his knuckles. We need to go see Texas Chainsaw Massacre someday, the three of us, at the drive in." Finney smiles at the end, masking the little bit of anger he showed off before.

"Definitely. I've been meaning to rent it for us, but, you know, everything" Oliver sighs, starting to forget about the situation. "I can't believe we haven't really had a chance, all three of us, to just hang out over the summer"

"Same, I rented out a movie and never got to even watch it myself."

"Which one?"

"13 Ghosts. It looked pretty cool, just never got to it"

"Well, we'll set up a movie weekend or something" Oliver shrugs with a soft smile, "Thanks for walking me home"

"Yeah dude, of course" Finn replies, the small talk ending as the boys go silent, unknowing of what to talk about.

"I checked out some books from the library so I can start researching tonight. For the science project" Oliver speaks up, "I don't trust you doing this alone, dork"

"You are just as much of a dork as I am!" Finney nudges his shoulder into Oliver's

"Okay, space nerd"

"What? You made me an amazing drawing of Mars just last week!" Finney exclaims

Oliver's eyes widen as he knew he lost the stupid little fight, disconnecting his fingers with Finney's, running off down the street, looking back with a smile to challenge the brunette. Finney takes off with a sprint, immediately catching up as the teens turn the corner, racing each other, sprinting as fast as their legs could take them.

The two slow down as they reach the dead end street, looking over at each other as they pant, gasping for air. Finney smiles and waves a silent goodbye as Oliver does the same, leaving the Blake boy to walk back home alone. Oliver passes an electric pole, discovering a new poster that wasn't there before he left that morning.

Griffin Stagg.

Somehow he'd missed the fact Griffin had been missing for four years, he was eight when he disappeared and he'd be twelve by now. Oliver didn't know how he missed this, but it terrified him. The poster was probably put up by his parents, the curly haired boy couldn't imagine what they were going through.

Another pole down was one for Vance Hopper. He'd been missing for a while as well. Went missing at fifteen, he'd be sixteen now. The curly haired blonde had been gone for ten months? This didn't seem like any sense.

This information scared the shit out of Oliver as he quickly paces up to his doorstep, seeing a poster on the door. He rips it off the tape, holding it in his hands. Billy Showalter, six months. Billy had been gone for four months. Meaning Bruce was already gone two.
