My Best Friend (Dustin story)

Chapter five: the flea and the Acrobat

Jonathan came and got me from. Mike's, we got home and opened to door and we found our dad on the couch with mom. "Hey, kids" he greeted us. I stepped back some, "what's going on and why is he here?" Jonathan asked "your dad is here for will's Funeral" mom told us "mom what happened to the wall" I asked "did that thing come Back?" Jonathan asked "how about we go talk Jonathan" dad I said "mom? What was that thing you saw?" I asked her at I sat down next to her, "I didn't have a face and it was after will." She told me, I grabbed her hand "I-I think will is alive" I told her, she looked at me like I had seen a ghost. "Sweetheart what are you talking about" she asked me, "I-I heard him... I know it sounds crazy but I think he is alive" I told her looking down at my feet. "Hey baby look at me" She said as she grabbed my chin to look at her "your not crazy Sweetheart. Talk to me" She said "I-I saw that faceless thing and it saw me... and I was after will, I heard him, mom I heard him and I couldn't get to him." I cried "how did you see this thing" she asked "with my powers, I don't know how I did it" I told her as Jonathan and dad came out. "I am going to bed" I said as I gave mom and Jonathan a hug quickly walking passed dad, I fell asleep.
