"I have to do something with Dustin, so..." Will turned around to look at Mike. "I should go?" Mike asked standing up. "Yeah,... sorry." Will smiled shyly looking down. "It's fine. I should head home anyway." Mike replied picking up his bag and walking to the door next to Will. "Well, I'll see you later." Mike said as he walked out the door. "Bye!" Will shouted as mike walked to his car.

Will closed the door and walked to his room.  Dustin had placed the items on the floor. "You ready?" Dustin asked, picking up a candle. "Yeah." Will replied and cleared a spot on his floor.

Will placed a down the mat in the center of his floor. The mat had a red star inside of a circle. A pentagram. Dustin placed the six candles on each corner of the star. "Here, light those three." Dustin said, throwing the old fashioned lighter to will.

They placed a glass bottle filled with water and a Ouija board in the middle and sat across the pentagram. They held their hands together and closed their eyes. " is he here?" Will whispered to Dustin. "He's on his way." Dustin replied quietly.

*Mike POV*

I sat in my car, still curious about what will and Dustin where doing. I was about to pull out of Wills driveway, when I saw someone run though the trees surrounding wills house. I recognized them as Gareth. Gareth was a member in hellfire. I know he lives near Will, but why is he here?

I got out of my car and fallowed him. He seemed to be heading towards wills room. 'What the hell?'. He walked to wills window and knocked. I watched from behind a tree  as Will opened his window. His room was all dark and there was a faint light coming from inside. I watched as gareth climbed in through the window.

Gareth closed the window behind him. After about a minute, I slowly walk over to the window, trying to not get noticed. I feel a flood of jealousy as I watch gareth give Will a big bear hug.

*Will POV*

As Gareth climbed in the window, I could feel a warm summer breeze blow into my room. "Sorry that took so long." Gareth apologized as he closed the window. "I was waiting for my dad to fall asleep so I could leave." Gareth smiled slightly. "It's fine" will replied.

( Gareth loved how Will always understood everything. He loved how he was so excepting and understanding. Gareth wasn't into Will though, he had another interest. He loved the boys hair, his face, his personality, everything about him. )

Gareth gave will a big hug before breaking it apart. He walked over to Dustin and greeted him with a ' Drag greeting '. "Hey Dustin, how are you?" Gareth asked smiling. " I'm good, you? " Dustin asked smiling back. "surprisingly, pretty good." Gareth chuckled lightly.

"Come on losers, we only have two hours before Jonathan gets back." Will said, sitting down on the ground. "Okay" Dustin replied sitting down at a corner of the star. Gareth did the same.

*Mike POV*

I watched in shock as I noticed the setup on the floor. There where candles and a weird bottle of liquid in the middle of a,... pentagram? It was not like Will at all. It was dark and honestly, really creepy. I watched as Will, Dustin and Gareth sat down in a circle. Will started saying something that I couldn't quite hear through the window. Something about a spirit or some satanic creature.

I held guilty for watching them. It was none of my business really, but I was so curious. I had never seen this side of Will. I couldn't keep watching him. I felt like a stalker, so I left."

Will, Dustin and Gareth where all talking about some random movies when they heard tired screech outside. Will recognized that noise anywhere, it was Jonathan. Will and Gareth went to pick up their mess as Dustin hopped out of the window.

Dustin always left the cleaning to Will and Gareth since he was the one who had to set everything up. This also gave Gareth and Will more time alone. Will and gareth never really hung out alone, but they where still really close.

After putting everything away, Will and Gareth ran to sit on the couch and pretend they where watching TV. Luckily, Jonathan hadn't come inside yet. As soon as Will turned on the TV, Jonathan walked in. "Hey will." Jonathan said smiling, not noticing the boy next to him at first. "Who's this?" Jonathan asked, gesturing to Gareth. "O-Oh uhm, this is G-Gareth." Will stuttered. He knew Jon had probably heard about him. Gareth had a reputation of being a bad person. Will didn't understand where that came from. He was so nice and caring. He assumed it came from his appearance and the fact he was friends with Eddie Munson.

"Can I talk to you, Will? Preferably, alone." Jon asked quietly, looking back and forth between the two boys. "Oh, uhm yeah." Will replied getting up from his spot next to Gareth on the couch. Jon walked to the next room over and Will fallows. "Why is he here?" Jonathan asked, not hesitating a second. "what?" Will asked, 100% aware of what he meant. "Why is HE here?" Jon repeated himself. " Because we're friends." Will replied, trying to play dumb.
"Look, Will, I've heard some, ... things, about him. He's not a good kid, will." Jon said glancing back at Gareth, who was sitting on the couch watching TV. "Look," will sighs, giving up his act ; "I know there are some roomers of some not-so great things that he's done, but he's a good person and a good friend."  Will replied, slightly smiling at the last part, then it soon disappearing. "Okay will, just, ... be careful. Okay?" Jonathan asked sighing. "I know, Jon" Will sighed and lightly pushed Jonathan out of the way, returning to the couch.

Gareth gave Will a smile as he sat next to him. After a few minutes of awkward scope fr and the two boys cuddling on the couch, Will decided to break the silence. " uhm Gareth?" Will whispered. "Yeah?" Gareth replied looking down at Will. "Uhm, do you wanna come to see a movie with me and my friends tonight?" He asked shyly. Gareth chuckled and nodded. "Yeah."
