Lately

Chapter 4

3rd POV

Currently Mike was flipping through some pieces of paper that was drawing that Will made, each one was based on the group's DND campaign.

He soon heard some static noise which caused him to place the drawings down and look at one side of the basement just to See Eleven and Yn under the make shift tent they made and it seems like Eleven was messing with the hand radio.

"Can you please stop that ?"

Mike asked as he was getting annoyed hearing that sound.

"Shut up boy, she's trying to do something"

Yn gave Mike a quick response as she was looking at Eleven who was messing with the buttons and switches on the hand radio.

Eleven kept messing with the radio which caused it to make more noise, Mike soon got annoyed and placed the drawings to his side.

"Are you deaf ?!"

Mike said as he waited for anyone of the two to reply but it seems like they were now ignoring him.

"I thought we were friends, you know"
"But friends tell each other the truth"
"And they definitely don't lie to each other"

Mike said as he still waited for them to reply but it seems like they had nothing to say but at least they stopped messing with the radio.

"You both made me think Will was okay,that he was still out there but he wasn't."
"He wasn't"
"Maybe you thought you were helping but you weren't"
"You hurt me, do you understand ?"

"What you did sucks"
"Lucas was right about you, about both of you"
"All along"

Mike said as he picked the drawings back up and started to look through them again.

"So, are you done complaining cause if so we would like some quiet time"

Yn said as she showed little to no interest in what Mike just said and focused back to Eleven who was adjusting the radio.

Mike seemed annoyed with what he just heard from Yn but before he could say anything.

"So Come on and let me know"

A voice sang through the radio which instantly caught Mike's attention since he knew who the voice belonged to.

"Should I stay or should I go"
"Should I stay or should I go now"

Will's voice softly sang through the radio.

Mike soon got up and made his way to the tent, Eleven soon handed him the radio and then Mike placed it closer to his ear as he heard Will sing more.

"If I go there will be trouble"
"If I stay there will be double"

Will kept singing softly through the radio until Mike tried to respond.

"Will, is that you ?"
"It's mike"
"Do you copy over ?"

Mike said through the radio hoping for Will to respond but all he got was radio static.

"Will, are you there ?"
"Will"

Mike once again waited for a reply but he got nothing, he slowly started to place the radio down and then noticed that blood started to leak through Eleven's nose.

"Was that....was it..."

Mike tried his best to form a sentence but it seemed like Eleven knew what he was going to say.

"Will"
