I breathed heavily as I flushed the toilet. I rested against the wall and closed my eyes.
There was still something there.
I felt something in my mouth.
I began to pull a long string out of my mouth.
HOW DID THAT GET THERE??!?!?
I began to realize that it was a string to a balloon.
I finally pulled the last out and found a note. __________ C҉O҉M҉E҉ F҉L҉O҉A҉T҉ W҉I҉T҉H҉ U҉S҉ S҉A҉R҉A҉H҉ ___________
I gasped and threw it into the flushing toilet.
I felt my fever ridden head and began to stand.
It was hard to.
I placed my hand on the knob and opened it to see everyone standing nervously.
Beverly had her face in her knees. I ignored them talking to me as I sat down next to her.
"I'm sorry."
She said nothing.
I grabbed her shoulder and pulled her into a hug.
"I really am."
She let go of her knees and grabbed onto me as we both cried and laughed at the same time.
We wiped our eyes and looked up at the confused boys.
Bill was red, and Richie was sad.
They moved for the door, but I stopped them.
"Stop! We need to have no more bullshit in this relationship between us all. I don't care if you hate what I'm about to say, but I'm saying it cause it's true.
