"MIKE, I FOUND IT!" Richie exclaimed running over to Mike. Mike looked a little confused but also shocked. "Wait really?! Let me see!" Mike says while Richie is handing him what he found. "WAOH! I've been trying to find this all day! Where was it?!" Mike asks Richie, "Oh it was under all these damn books and papers." Richie tells Mike. Mike holds the book with photographs of himself and Richie and mikes family. Richie and Mike were up in mikes attic, it was very old with books and boxes everywhere. Everything has a layer or two of dust on it, and the corners and ceilings had cobwebs and spiders. There was plenty of dead bugs up there to, maybe more then they would have liked. The brown squeaky floor boards creek with every movement. But Richie didn't mind. Mike was looking through the photos, pointing out every embarrassing moment, every wholesome moment, even the bad moments hidden within each photo in the photo book. Then Richie suddenly notices something, Mike looks younger. He looks way younger. He looked Like he was 13 years old again. Everything around Richie started to melt. The walls started to look abnormal, with the pink and yellow colors appearing in them. Everything looks like lava the way everything melts. We Richie sees Mike disappear within thin air, the brown squeaky floorboards falling apart. Colors looking different and everything looking warped. The roof collapsed on Richie, but just like anything,

Richie woke up in a cold sweat. He sat up quickly, breathing heavily. I heard something, like rocks hitting his window. Richie jumped up and walked to the window, He looked out the window just to see a tree branch hitting his window. There was a snowstorm outside, the ground was completely covered in snow. And the air was filled with snowflakes. Richie got back in bed and went to sleep. When he woke up, he laid in bed for a bit. It was a Saturday today, so he would be spending the day at mikes house since he doesn't have any other friends. After about 20 minutes of Richie laying in bed and staring at the ceiling, he sat up on the edge of his bed. He was a thinker, someone who thought and imagined before actually experiencing the full reality of it. Richie was thinking about his parents. His dad would mainly be out of the house to who knows where, then he comes back and fights with Maggie, Richies mom. His mom worked shifts at the hospital as a nurse, but then would come home and drink until she passed out on the couch. Richie didn't mind that much. He liked being alone, he liked the quiet. But he also likes music. He liked music a lot actually. He likes rock music or hard rock. His all time favorite is- "RICHARD TOZEIR GET YOUR ASS DOWN HERE, NOW!" Richie snapped out of his thinking, got up and went down stairs.

He walks into the kitchen to see who was calling him, then he sees wentworth standing and holding up Richies report card. "Richard. I have told you multiple times to get your damn grades up." Went worth said with disappoint. "But I'm passing all my classes, unlike 'Ms. Goodie-two-shoes' over there failing 4 of her classes." Richie said with sarcasm. "Don't bring me into it rich!" Rachel said, annoyed at his mention of her grades, "Who even cares anyway? I'm leaving Highschool this year!" Rachel said. Richie was a bit pissed off now, "You still need grades to pass the last year of school ass eater!" Richie said. "OKAY OKAY that's enough guys! Richie get your goddamn grades up! I don't want to see another 89% in any of your classes, you understand?" Wentworth said annoyed at both Richie and his older sister. Richie looks at wentworth then bad at Rachel. "Fine, and Rachel fuck you!" Richie says as he walks fast to the front door and walks out, making sure to slam it shut.
Richie runs over to his bike, grabbing it and getting in it. He pedals as fast as he can. He told Mike he would be at his house right after Richie woke up, but it's already 12:36pm.

After 7 minutes, he is finally at mikes house, he sees Mike sitting on his porch. "Richie! Finally! What took you so long?" Mike says to richie as Richie walks up to Mike. "My dumbass dad was yelling at me about my 89% in history, even though my sister is failing 4 of her damn classes" Richie says annoyed. "It's bullshit, I fucking know." Richie adds.  Mike tries to comfort Richie "Well, you are spending the night here tonight so you can have time away from them." Mike says. Richie stands next to Mike who is sitting on his brown wooden rocking chair. A couple moments of silence go by. "Anyway, I have to go tend to the farm, wanna help?" Mike says to Richie, hoping he will agree. "Oh- uh- yea of course!" Richie said. "Okay then, we don't have time to waste. Let's get a move on!" Mike said to Richie, then they both started to do the farm chores around the farm until dusk.
