Noah's Pov -
I stepped back in through the broken window, waiting on Courtney behind me. I crept out of the door and towards the basement one.
"Are you ready?"
I breathed in and then out, accepting the fact that Cody could very well be dead. I opened the door, and a cold wind that drafted up made me shudder.
I slowly walked down the stairs, trying not to make much noise. Until my phone buzzed my stupid ass ringtone. I opened it up and saw a message from cody.
cody ml <33: i hear you
Me: wait what
cody ml <33: you're really loud
Me: shit, how loud?
cody ml <33: not that loud, i cant rlly hear you
Me: good. anyway where the hell are you?
cody ml <33: i can't tell. it's really dark
Me: everywhere is dark in this damn basement
cody ml <33: wait i know where I am
Me: where?
cody ml <33: a closet i think
Me: ofc ur in a closet
cody ml <33: sthu
I turned back to Courtney.
"Was that Cody? How did he get his phone?"
"Maybe whoever had it dropped it."
I crept down the stairs slower and onto the concrete basement floor. The walls down here were half built, the insulation showing. I heard a small bang and I saw a door in the corner of the room shake. Another bang happened, and the door shook even more.
I approached it slowly, looking back at Courtney nervously.
"Just open it!" She yelled. "Get it out of the way!"
"I don't wanna dieeeee!"
"You did a week ago."
I eyed Courtney angrily before slowly turning the doorknob. I barely got it open before something jumped out at me. I screamed and kicked my legs, before I realized it was Cody, thinking I was someone else.
"Noah..?"
"Cody?!"
I immediately pulled him towards me and wrapped my arms around him.
"I thought you died!" I cried. Cody hugged me back. We sat there for a minute before I heard Courtney sigh.
"Can y'all stop being gay and actually leave??" Courtney huffed.
"Fine. But I am kissing you when we get home."
"Ok..?"
We stood up and walked towards the steps until I heard the basement door open.
"Shit."
"What?"
"Get that closet," I said, running over to it. I was too late because I could already hear footsteps running down the stairs.
"Cody, go!"
"GO WHERE." Cody shouted a little too loudly. My eyes widened and I grabbed his arm, preparing to run. Until I heard the noise of a gun.
"Uh...guys??" Courtney whispered, backing away.
The footsteps got even louder and I reached back and grabbed Cody's hand.
