The Color Barrier~Reddie Au

Thirteen

(Tw: for bills nightmare. I don't know if it really is a tw but it's scary to think about if you've experienced what he explains. And Stanley's)

*Bills Nightmare*
Bill smiles as he thinks about the curly haired boy, nervous to see him the next day.

Slowly he falls asleep smiling about the other one.

Opening his eyes he sits in a car, driving. "What's happening?" He whispers to himself.

To his right he sees Stanley smiling as they listen to music. His hand on Stanley's knee. He smiles about that.

Stanley sings along to the song, a song Bill vaguely recognizes. Stanley smiles at the older boy.

Bills focus goes back into the road, not wanting to hit something or someone.

He looks over at the smaller boy realizing he doesn't have a seatbelt on.

"S-Stanley, please p-put your s-seatbelt o-on." "Baby I'll be fine, promise me." "P-please, it's l-law anyways."

He glances back and forth from the road and Stanley. "Bill we're almost there anyways." The smaller boy tries to reassure him.

"No Stanley p-please put your s-seatbelt on!" He raises his voice, making the smaller boy flinch.

And then it's too late.

Running into a pole, going pretty fast.

To make things worse everything goes in slow motion. Screams erupt from the two. Slowly the smaller boy starts going forward, soon crashing into the glass in front of him.

Bill tries to grab on but he can't.

Finally everything goes back to normal speed.

He screams as he watches Stanley go limp.

Getting out fo the car he goes to Stanley's side. Pulling him out and laying him on the ground.

"S-S-Stanley baby p-p-please stay w-w-with me."

His stutter growing worse as he sobs, holding onto the boy and kissing his temple.

He wakes up clawing at his bed. Scratches on his arms.

*Stanleys Nightmare*
The two have candles in the house because Stanley likes how it looks with the decoration and Bill just likes the smell.

This night Bill decided to go lay down earlier since he didn't feel good. "G-goodnight I'm g-gonna go lay down." "Okay I'll be right there, I'm gonna finish this movie."

"Love y-you." He smiles. "I love you too Billy." "No n-not that n-nickname." The two chuckle before Bill goes to the other room.

As Bill goes to lay down he bumps into a table with a candle on it. He lays down not thinking about it.

The fire spreads to anything it can touch. First the curtains.

Bill falls asleep quickly.

The curtains go up in flames quickly, finally it reaches the tables and rug on the floor.

Stanley laughs at the movie until he hears a scream. "Bill? Are you okay?!" "Help! Stanley help!" He yells, Stanley rushes to the door. Touching the handle it's hot.

He can't feel the heat from outside the door. The scream becomes louder and louder as Stanley doesn't know what to do. 

He calls 911 sobbing. "Hello? My boyfriend is trapped in a room and there's a fire. Please get here quick!"

He sobs as he falls onto the ground, onto his knees. All he can do is listen to the screams.

"I love you Bill!" He yells.

Finally the screaming stops. Another one erupts from Stanley.

His sobs make it hard to breathe. After a while he's dragged out of the house by a person. He tries to fight back until he's thrown onto the ground.

Finally the curly haired boy wakes up sweating. Claw marks on his forearms.

He pulls his shirt off and puts shorts on instead of pants. Slowly falling asleep, everyone who had had the nightmare was afraid to fall asleep once again. But they did.
