WILL POV-
---- Monday 10:12 AM ----
"No way! I'm actually here!" Will smiled bright jumping up and down. He clutched his backpack ensuring it didn't wobble. The small boy was ecstatic, not only was he going on a luxurious camping trip; he would also be in his favourite chapter of the comic. It wasn't clear how it would pan out, but it didn't matter, he was just elated to be going. The camping segment was always beautifully drawn, with log cabins and luscious pockets of greenery in the woods giving a mystical feeling to the story.
"Hehe" He chuckled loudly; it was the first time he was going on a trip like this. In his high school they only ever went on one camping trip. It lasted a week and Will was unable to go because no one wanted to share a room with him. It put a damper on his mood and so decided not to go as he would just feel like a nuisance if he went with people who merely tolerated his presence.
Will shook his head, trying not to think about his non-existent friend circle. He looked around the train station; it was weird seeing other students in their non-uniform clothing. He could see what other people liked to wear on their day out. El said clothes are the window to the soul; Will knew that saying was wrong but he allowed it not wanting to burst her mojo.
"WILL! I FORGOT MY BLUE DRESS!" The doe-eyed girl screamed running over with all her bags, having almost triple the amount of bags he did. She shuffled to stand next to him "We need to go back home!"
Will rolled his eyes "We can't go now the train is going to pick us up!"
"B-but" El pouted clutching the handle of her suitcase "I was going to wear that later"
"If we go back, we will literally miss the train" Will deadpanned pointing at the arrival sign
"Fine!" El huffed spotting Max a few meters away, "Hold my bags" throwing them to the boy causing him to stumble as he tried to catch the handles
Will glanced over; a piece of him felt jealous wanting someone to be that excited to see him. Unexpectedly a hand presented itself on the shoulder of the smaller boy
"So, are you excited?" The voice spoke
"UH..." Will flinched not knowing who's hand it was. Turning around he saw Dustin wearing a summer shirt over a graphic tee with a baseball cap, seemingly ready for the trip.
"Geez Dustin, you almost gave me a heart attack!" Will answered the question producing a toothy grin.
"Oh, so I failed" Dustin jokingly pouted
"Very funny!" The brunette sarcastically deadpanned
"Is this the first time you're going on a camping trip?" Dustin questioned
"Yeah! It is" Will's smile grew bright
"They don't take you camping where you're from?" The curly haired boy tilted his head
"Umm... it got cancelled" Will lied not wanting to expose the real reason for being unable to go on his school's camping trip.
"Well let's make this one to remember, huh?" Dustin encouraged; excited for the trip himself.
"OKAY CLASS" Mr Clark screamed alerting the class to his attention. Almost the entire year was here as they all turned to face him standing with a few other teachers. Will and Dustin also turned to face him; not wanting to miss anything.
