Really? // Stenbrough

Chapter 46

Bill's PoV

"Hey love." Stan said as he got into my car.

He gave me a quick kiss before buckling his seat belt. Today he had on black jeans and a pastel yellow shirt with his black converse.

"Hey."

I started driving us to school.

"How was last night?" He asked cautiously.

"Um. It was fine. I mostly just cried in his room since my parents didn't come home till around 5 this morning. I fell asleep in his bed."

I kept my eyes on the road but I felt Stan gently place his hand on my knee comfortably. I felt tears spring into my eyes and I quickly wiped them away.

We rode the rest of the way in a comfortable silence. I parked at the school and we got out with our backpacks. He took my hand and lead me over to the losers.

I stayed close to Stan as we walked over to them because I was extremely nervous. I shut them out and just left them, I didn't know what to expect from them.

"Bill!" I heard Eddie squeal. He immediately engulfed me in a hug, which took me by surprise. I flung my arms around him to keep myself balanced.

"Hi Eddie." I said softly.

He pulled away from the hug and looked up at me smiling. I gave him a small smile back. He let go of me and went back to standing by Richie. I looked at the rest of the losers.

"Hi." I said quietly.

"Sorry I couldn't hear you over all the bullshit you're pulling." Richie snapped.

"Richie!" Eddie whisper-yelled as he slapped his boyfriends arm.

I looked down and played with the hem of my shirt, nervously. I deserve this. You were such a dick to them, especially Stan. They have a right to be pissed.

"Be quiet Richie." Stan said.

"No it's ok. Richie has the right to be mad. He can tell me how he feels, you all can." I told them.

"Bill, I'm sorry. I heard the news." Ben said sadly.

I looked at him confused. "What?"

"About Georgie. We just wanted to let you know we're here for you. Even if Richie's pissed, we are all here." Bev said and everyone agreed.

I wiped my cheeks since some tears started falling down. Stan grabbed my hand and pulled me into a hug, that everyone joined.

"Why are you being so nice to me?"

"Because even though you were a total asshole, you were our friend first." Richie said.

"Yeah. And we love you Bill." Stan said.

All day people had been staring at me in the hallways and whispering things behind my back. Yes I fucking know my brother is missing.

I saw Stan and quickly ran up to him, giving him a hug. I almost started crying into his back.

"Hey love." He said happily.

"Hi." I mumbled.

He turned around and looked at me. "What's wrong?"

I looked away from him and didn't reply. He placed his hand under my chin and lightly pushed my head up so I would look at him.

"What's wrong?" He asked again.

"I wanna go."

He shut his locker and held my hand, leading me out of the building. We walked silently to my car and I hoped into the drivers seat. We buckled our seatbelts and I started driving.

"Can we go to your house?" I asked.

"Of course." He placed his hand on my knee again and I slightly smiled.

I drove to his house in a comfortable silence and when we arrived, I parked and we got out. He took my hand in his, and walked up the stairs. I smiled. He unlocked the door and held it open for me.

"Thanks Stanny." I said as I walked in.

"No problem." He walked in himself and shut the door before we took off our shoes.

He took my hand again and took me into his room. We set our bags down and he shut the door before he laid down on his bed. He opened his arms and I laid down next to him.

I nuzzled my face into his chest and he wrapped his arms around me tightly.

"I'm sorry about Richie this morning." He spoke softly.

"It's ok. I deserved it, and more. I expected it anyways."

"I know you think that Bill, but you don't. Ok."

I decided not to argue with him. "Ok."

He rubbed my back. "Good."

"I'm sorry."

"I know."

"Do you think they're just forgiving me so fast because Georgie went missing?" I asked sadly.

"Of course not Bill. They're your friends, they'd forgive you anytime. Richie's still pissed but he'll get over it soon."

"Good."

I looked up at Stan and he smiled. I smiled back and he kissed my forehead.

"I've missed you so much baby."

"I've missed you so much love."
