stand by me love story

Chapter 8 Chris and lisa

Then I woke up to something

What the hell Andrew said

Oh, my god

What the hell was that sound? Chrissy asked as she rubbed her eyes

It's that brower kid

His ghost is out walking in the woods

Shut up teddy I said and slammed his arm

I promise I won't say no more bad swears

I'll eat my lima beans

Two for flinching

What is it, Chris?

Carol was hiding behind Chris

Maybe it's coyotes

It sounds like a woman screaming

It's not coyotes, it's his ghost

Don't say that

Teddy I said

Teddy, sit down

I'm gonna go look for it I want to go see the ghost

Don't say that

I just want to see it

Theodore Micheal Duchamp

Then the noise came back

Shit Lisa said

Maybe we should stand guard

Yeah, that's a good idea

Give me the gun, I'll take the first watch

Then we fell asleep

2300 hours

Corporal teddy Duchamp stands guard

No sign of the enemy the fort is secure

Shut up, teddy and keep your eyes peeled

Then he made a annoy sound

Teddy, shut the fuck up Chrissy said

Teddy, cut it out

Hey, I'm trying to sleep

Shut up I said

The dogfaces rested easy

In the knowledge that corporal teddy Duchamp was protecting all that would scare them

Teddy

Then it was Vern's turn

Lisa pov

It was the dream of my mother funeral

Ace had his hands on my shoulder

Audrey was in my father's arms

It's should have been you Lisa dad told me

I woke up in a gasp

Are you ok? Chris asked

Huh?

You were dreaming

I didn't cry at my mom's funeral I said

I miss her, Chris

I really miss her

I remember her beautiful smile, her hair and her smell of flowers and her voice

I know

I miss my mom too he said

Go back to sleep

But I couldn't

Then I went to sit with him

Maybe you could go into college courses with me and Gordie and Anne

That'll be the day

Why not? You're smart enough

They won't let me

What do you mean?

It's the way people think of my family in this town and the way they think of me

I'm just one of those lowlife chambers kids

That's not true

Oh, it is

No one asked me if I took the milk money

That time I just got a three day vacation

Did you take it?

Yeah, I took it

You knew it, teddy and Gordie knew I took it

Everyone knew I took it, even vern knew it, I think

Maybe I was sorry and tried to give it back

You tried to give it back?

Maybe just maybe

Maybe I took it to old lady Simon's, and the money was all there

But I still got a three day vacation because I never showed up

And maybe the next week, old lady Simon's had this brand new suit on, when she came to school

Yeah it was brown, and had dots on it

I stole the milk money, but old lady Simon's stole it back from me

Suppose that I told the story

Me, Chris chambers, kid brother to eyeball chambers

Would you think anyone have believed it?

No

And do you think would that bitch have tried that if someone douchebag from the view had taken the money?

No way

Hell no

But with me

Well, I'm sure she had her eye on that skirt

For a long time

Anyway, she saw her chance, and she took it

I was the stupid for even trying to give it back

I just never thought, I never thought the teacher

Then he started to cry

Oh, who gives a fuck anyway

Then I wrapped an arm around him

I just wish

That I could go somewhere where nobody knows me and take the girls with me

I guess I'm just a pussy, huh?

No way, man, no way

Then I kissed his cheek

Stop your a tough guy I said

Then he looked at me and hugged me

Then we kissed on the lips
