fear. fear is the one thing that everyone has inside them, and it was no different for sage bowers.

walking out of derry high alone, walkmen playing "I was made for loving you" by kiss as I put on my headphones and drowned out everyone yelling and crying. I walked into my last period. one I had with my older brother henry. he was doing his normal thing playing with a pencil. not paying attention. that was until he walked in.
eddie kaspbrack ran in as the bell rang loudly, indicating that class had started. I put my headphones on as I felt eyes staring into the back of my head. that class was my least favorite
as soon as that bell rang I ran out of that math class and straight to the bathroom, bumping into a group of boys on my way over, hiding in the car left stall. a few moments later I hear a group of girls walk in, heals clicking.
"BEAVERLY i know your in here, slut, i can smell you from here"
she says banging on the door reapedly. other girls circle around the stalls, grabbing somthing I can't quite make up. " you probably have half the school in there with you huh slut?" that's when i knew it was greta and her group of friends. they had been horrible to most of the girls for years but left me alone bc they are scared of my brother.
"which is it greta, am I a slut or a little shit? make up your mind."
as the I was about to try and leave I hear splashing next to me, greta had dumped an entire trash can on bev and her backpack.
"hey are you ok"
I yell over from the stall over, worried. after being met with a sigh and a smoke puff she opens her door and walks out. leaving me sitting by myself in a dirty bathroom stall.

TIME SKIP

the same song playing over and over in my head as I walked over to my brothers red mustang. he wasn't in the car so I put my backpack in the backseat and walked around looking for him.
"nice frisbee, flamer"
oh how I hated his stupid gang. did they seriously have bother better to do then bully some poor kids. I recognized Eddie from my math class. and I knew the kid hated all sorts of germs or anything gross really, so being near henry was practically suicide.
"henry do you have do be a total dick 24/7, go home and jerk off your "gang" some more"
everyone's heads turned at my outburst. I could see there jaws drop because no one stood up to henry, no one. henry looked over at me and I pointed at our dad who was standing by his police car. see about a month prior a girl named betty ribson had gone missing and my dad was chief of police. her mom was standing at the front door of our school, waiting to see if somehow her daughter would come out on the last day before summer. although I think everyone knew she wasn't.
he took his hands off of one of the boys that he was hanging on to. he took his hand, licked it, and smeared it all over his face.
"this summers gonna be a hurt train for you and your faggot friends, SAGE GET IN THE CAR"
his face was red from embarrassment but I didn't care. I walked over to the group of kids helping them one by one making sure no one was hurt, even telling one kid I would get his kippah back.
"woah holy shit, he actually listened to you, how did he not beat your ass!?!"
a kid with thick glasses asked me.
"well when he's your asshole of a brother he dose what you say ya know"
apparently they had no clue that we where related. but they seemed impressed as hell.
"SAGE GET IN THE CAR"
he said as he pressed the horn on his wheel.
"hey w-we a-re going to t-t-the sewers l-later if y-you wanna come w-ith"
the boy, who I learned was named bill said with a very bad stutter and a red face of shame.
" if I can i'll be there"
I said smiling at them, then with one final honk I grabbed a sharpie from my bag and took Eddie's hand in mine, writing my number with little hearts around it. walking back to his car I hear boys getting giddy one even telling Eddie to "get some" making me laugh.
I looked back at them with a smile and a small wave, making eye contact with kaspbrack, his face turning a deep shade of red and his smile stretching from ear to ear.
