In case you don't live forever

Chapter 8: Troy peed himself!

Peter's Pov:

We opened the doors to the gym to have all eyes on us. "Abort" Dustin whispered starting to walk away but Lucas pushed him into the gym. We all sat on the bleachers in a row and looked at the other kids. "Look at these fakers" Mike looked at me then Lucas. "They probably didn't even know his name until today" Lucas told me and Mike and I nodded a little, looking at James and Troy to see them laughing. I wanted to punch them so badly. "Mouthbreather" I heard Eleven say looking at them too.

The school bell rung and every kid got off the bleachers. Kids were scattered through out the gym and slowly leaving. My eyes landed on James and Trou. With my friends following I approached them "Hey! Hey! Hey Troy! Hey Troy!" I yelled until they faced me. "You.. You think this is funny?" My higher pitched voice sounded a little deeper than normal. I was fucking pissed. "What you say, Harrington?" Troy looked me in the eyes. "I..I saw you guys laughing over there and I think that's a real messed up thing to do" I stammered. "Didn't you listen to the counselor, Harrington. Grief shows itself in funny ways" James spoke and more anger boiled up inside me. "Besides what's there to be sad about anyway? Will's in fairy land now right? Flying around with all the other little fairies. All happy and gay" Troy finished and started to walk away. I was done. I was sick of his bullshit. I walked up to him and pushed him with all the muscle in my body. Which wasn't very much.... But it was enough to push him the the ground. There was scattered 'oh's' from the kids in the gym and Troy bolted up to his feet. "You're dead, Harrington. Dead" He started to walk toward me but was stopped by something. He seemed like he was stuck and pee ran down his leg staining his pants. "Dude, Troy peed himself" A kid yelled and everyone else started laughing. It went on for another minute before I looked back at El to see a little blood running down her nose and I gave her a small smile. The laughter was stopped by the Principal "Hey what's going on here?" He yelled facing the kids. "Peter! lets go" Lucas came up to me and the five of us ran out of the gym.

We quickly ran to the AV room and Mike pulled the keys out of his pocket. He quickly unlocked the door and the five of us piled inside. Mike turned on one light and locked the door so no one could come in. El sat in front of the heathkit and I sat beside her. Dustin, Mike and Lucas stood behind us. "Now what?" Dustin asked. "She'll find him. Right El?" Mike asked her before adjusting the radio a little. El closed her eyes and sat quietly. "What if she can't find him?" I asked quietly and nervously. "Shush" Mike looked at me and I nodded still nervous. We sat there quietly until Mike spoke "She's doing it. She's finding him." "This is crazy" Dustin replied. "Calm down. She just closed her eyes" Lucas said before the light turned off. My eyes bolted to the light and I got more nervous. Mike could tell and placed a hand on my back. We heard clanging from the radio and all leaned in closer to it. "What is that?" Dustin asked leaning even closer to it as the clanging intensified. Suddenly we heard a voice from the radio "Mom. Mom its coming!" It was Will's voice. He sounded so scared and I just wanted to help him. "Its like home, but its so dark. Its so dark and empty. And its cold. Mom? Mom!" Will spoke again sounding even more scared. Mike and Dustin made eye contact with each other and Lucas looked at me to see me staring intensely at the radio with tears trickling down my face. "Will" I muttered a few times. Not to my later the heathkit almost blew up causing all of us to jump and the heathkit to turn black.

Sorry this was a short chapter. The next one will be longer I promise.
