WILL POV-
---- Friday 7:54 PM ----
The sound of a distant whistle filled the air; students huddling around, counting all the bags they had brought. Will was one of them; checking and double checking his bag every few minutes worrying he had left something back at the cabin, constantly needing to reassure himself that he in-fact had everything.
The children only had mere moments before the train arrived. The past week had come and gone quicker then Will would have imagined; the best part of the comic was over for him and now he had to go back to the comic high school. He wasn't completely opposed to it... it would somehow be calmer than his days here.
Upon thinking back to his past few days here, he had gotten more done than he ever had back in Lenora; he went on a first date with a guy (...even if it was horrible), made friends and come out to them. That was the part the brunette was the most elated about, never envisioning to come out to anyone let alone his friends, filling him with confidence.
"CHILDREN!" Mr Clark alerted, breaking him out his thoughts but the boy felt a sharp pain in his forehead; great! He had a headache and needed to be on a stuffy train for multiple hours. Will rubbed his temples, the sharp pain subsiding but still lingered planning on falling asleep on the train so he would be knocked out for the majority of the journey.
The brunette took a seat on the bench surrounded by multiple bags as to his right El and Max playfully argue over 'Rock, Paper, Scissors'. Why? No clue, they were discussing strategies for the game as the doe-eyed girl attempted to refute the logic with her own: saying the best thing to do, is simply to cheat... how would one cheat in rock paper scissors? Will questioned to himself but kept his eyes on the railway tracks waiting for the train to arrive any moment now. Looking to his left however, he could see the trio of boys rushing over. Mike's face lit up from afar.
Will left early with the two girls as the boys decided to take a long-time packing, and since he was ready, agreed to unwillingly help El with her many bags.
Mike, Lucas, and Dustin walked over, their faces a mix of excitement and exhaustion spending the past week in an unfamiliar cabin among friends ending as they approached the station. Another spike hit Will's head allowing him to wince from the pain. The ravenette noticed sitting beside him "Are you okay?"
"Yep... My head just hurts" Will answered, a smile playing on his lips
"Do you want me to tell Mr Clark?" Mike raised an eyebrow
"I'll be fine!" The brunette shrugged "A little headache never hurt anyone"
"No but-" The ravenette tilted his head
"I'm fine Mike" Will playfully rolled his eyes "No need to be so dramatic" but a thought popped into the small boy's head as he rummaged through his bag pulling out a box, "Before I forget... Take one!" holding out the travel sickness medication he brought on the way here.
"Oh... you kept that?" Mike furrowed his brows
"Of course, I would" Will threw his hands in the air "What else am I gonna do? Throw them away?" giggling in a mocking tone raising his eyebrows "I'm just doing this, so you don't get grouchy on the train"
"I do not get grouchy!" The taller boy chuckled
"Oh, I think you do!" The brunette mocked
