My mouth immediately dropped open when I heard this. "Steven? Steven where are you right now" I said frantically. "My mom wanted me to go get some groceries on brooke avenue and on the way back it was just there right on the side of the rode" he nervously said still gasping for air. "Steven come here now! Tell your mom the store was closed or something just come here" I said.

He hung up and a few minutes later showed up at my front door. My parents greeted him and then he ran upstairs. "You look like crap" I said noticing how he was sweaty his hair was all messed up and he was covered in mud and dirt. "Jee thanks" he said sarcastically but than ran his fingers through his hair and sat on my bed.

He placed his head in his palms and sighed. "You don't half to stay strong for me" I said because I could tell all he wanted to do was ball his eyes out right now. I have known Steven longer then the rest of the group we met when we were at least 4 and met everyone else in the first grade we knew each other better so I could definantly tell when he was upset.

"I half to stay strong or I'll completely lose it" he mumbled. I nodded and placed my head on his shoulder and we sat there.

This is the third night in a row we have found a dead body and something tells me this isn't going to stop.
