The Flayed

We were back at Mike's house safely and I was in the bathroom with Max as she cleaned me up.

"Ow." I winced as Max lightly dapped my face.

After Billy broke the glass on the door I didn't know at the time, but he gashed me across my face with a shard from the floor. The scar starts at my forehead on the far left and ends on the far right under my eyeball.

"I'm sorry." Max apologized.

"For what?" I asked.

"Everything. I shouldn't have moved up to the door, If I didn't you wouldn't be hurt." Max said sadly.

"No. Don't apologize rose it wasn't your fault, you were just worried about your brother and wanted to see what was wrong. And plus if it wasn't me it would've been you. I would risk my life for you a million times over." I said.

"I really don't deserve you." Max said.

"No, I don't deserve you." I smiled.

"I feel like we hadn't had a moment to ourselves in forever." I admitted sadly.

"I miss just being with you, at my house watching movies all day and playing around you know." I continued.

"Yea I missed that too." Max smiled.

It went silent and Max just studied my face.

"What?" I chuckled.

Max didn't say anything and leaned in kissing me. I was surprised by her sudden action but quickly recovered kissing her back. Max snaked her arms around my neck making me grab her waist. Our kiss started to deepen when there was a knock on the door.

"Would you lovebirds hurry up already!" Mike yelled from the other side of the door.

"Your just mad you can't kiss anyone!" I screamed back.

"Fuck you!" Mike shouted.

"fUCk yoU!" I mocked him.

Time Skip

We were all sitting on the couch while Nancy and Johnathan were explaining something about an old lady.

"Okay so this crazy old lady that was eating fertilizer-" Mike said but was cut off.

"Mrs. Driscoll." Nancy corrected.

"Right yeah, Mrs. Driscoll." Mike said correcting himself.

"What time was this attack?" Mike continued.

"Last night." Nancy said.

"Right but what time last night?" Mike questioned.

"Around nine." Nancy said.

"You waited all night to call?" Johnathan said interrupting the two.

"I was waiting for the doctors to run some test." Nancy responded.

"You weren't there." Will said.

"We'll I'm here now, aren't I?" Johnathan replied.

"Hallelujah!" Nancy said sarcastically.

Everyone was quiet creating a painful awkward silence.

"Umm so what ti-time was your sauna test?" Nancy stuttered.

"Around nine." Me and the party said at the same time.

:Well that proves it. that proves my theory." Nancy said.

"Then she's flayed just like Billy." I said.

"Flayed?" Johnathan asked.

"The mind flayer, he flays people, takes over their mind. Once they do that, they basically become him or apart of him." I explained.
