Don't Blame The Movies 8
Chapter 8
1996
Standing outside of the school, you watched anyone that walked past
Was it him? No…..
Still in thought feeling a hand suddenly touch your shoulder made you jump, spinning around to see Miss Nancy.
“Sorry, Y/n.”
You breathed a sigh of relief “No, it’s ok, I- I spaced out.” Trying your best to push down the ever-growing feeling to overexplain and apologize, you watched her body language dreading the conversion.
Miss Nancy moved a few steps forward, motioning for you to follow, only stopping at the bottom fo the steps, next to the trees. “Do you have a moment?” Her shaky voice was lowered to a whisper.
You nodded stepping in a little closer, suddenly worried “If it’s about earlier-”
She cut you off “Not only that, but after what happened last year and last night, Y/n, you need to be careful. You never know… Wolves in sheep's clothing, you have to be careful with who you trust.”
The memory of the killer on top of you came to mind, his groan, the eerie feeling you felt with Billy that night.
“And as far as what I walked in on earlier today.” She paused, eyes softening “I know you’ve been friends for a long time BUT if those boys cared for you, they wouldn’t place you in a bad situation.”
You continued to watch her, she was about to say something else when you noticed Randy walking your way. He met your stare and made his way over to you “Hey, Y/n.” he looked curiously between you both.
“Think about what I said, ok Y/n?”
You nodded “I will.” You watched as she walked away, Randy coughed, catching your attention.
“What was that about?”
A cracking sound caught your attention, coming from behind you, inside the bushes. You stared, suddenly feeling uneasy like someone was
watching you. “She was just checking on me.” Turning back to face him “Are you busy?” He shifted from side to side “The guys are coming over to make sure my house is safe, wanna join?”
“That sounds like a terrible idea and a good way for the killer to pick us off one by one!”
Rolling your eyes as you put your arm around his shoulder “Oh, come on! You can keep me company while Billy and Stu are inside.” You smirked, knowing he would take a safer option.
“Hmm, still sounds like a death wish.” He chewed his gum before facing you “We obey the rules?” he asked raising an eyebrow.
You happily nodded “Duh!”
“Full disclosure, if the killer comes at us I’m throwing you and running.” His grin crept across his face, and you both laughed “That’s fine, I was thinking the same thing.”
Stu called out as he came towards you both “Princess, ready to go?”
“We are.” You flatly stated, still unsure how to feel about what happened earlier.
Stu looked from you to Randy confused.
“Randy is joining us.” You could see Stu was unsure about the change of plans.
Randy cut in “That a problem?”
“Nah, the more the merrier” his voice was flat and empty of any emotion.
the three of you moved down further, and it wasn’t long before Billy’s car pulled up, and he instantly looked annoyed seeing Randy. Ignoring his stare, you climbed in the back with Randy, leaving Stu to jump in the front seat, you tried to avoid Billy’s glare in the mirror. You never sat in the back, you were always upfront with him.
“What made you come along? Suddenly grew balls, Randy?” Billy’s joking tone sounded flat to you, knowing him he was pissed.
Randy looked uncomfortable “What can I say? When a lady in distress asks for help, you come running.” He lightly elbowed you and didn’t seem to notice how the atmosphere has changed.
Thankfully it didn’t take long to arrive at your house, Billy eyed you the whole way.
Standing in front of the door he continued to eye you “You coming in?”
“We’ll wait outside.” Randy introjected.
Billy’s eyes went dark for a moment “Hiding behind y/n’s skirt?”
You lightly smacked his arm and were about to tell him to fuck off when Stu jumped in “Hey man.” He motioned for Billy to follow “It’s probably faster without him.” With that, they both went inside. “Sorry” You let out, looking over at Randy “Hey, don’t worry about it.”
```````````````````````
You and Randy were starting to get worried, they were still inside the house and didn’t answer when you called out.
“Forget it Y/n, I’m not going in there.”
You huffed “Yeah, I know the rules… They’re probably just being dicks.” Stepping in closer to the front door you paused, turning back to face Randy “Besides it wouldn’t be very smart to attack us during the day with people close by.”
He wrapped his arm around your shoulders, bringing you in closer “Ah, you're finally learning young Skywalker.” Smiling along, both of your backs were facing the door.
“Well, at least you are a better-looking Yoda” You joked back, lost in the conversation.
“Aargh!” Billy jumped out, scaring you both.
Randy tripped over, landing on his elbow “You fucking dick!” he screamed.
“Billy, what the fuck?!” Your heart was racing, anger building up as you yelled at him “With everything going on, why would you?!” He didn’t say anything for a moment, just smirked.
Stu followed behind Billy, also with a massive grin, how you wanted to smack it off their faces.
“Seriously? And people say I have bad taste.” Randy huffed.
“It’s called a joke, might want to look into it.”Billy glared down at Randy, not giving in.
Feeling the tension between you and Stu stepped forward, you didn’t know what to do but suddenly felt like Billy might lunge at Randy. Still eyeing him off, you could hear your mom’s car pulling into the driveway. Billy relaxed and so did everyone else.
Seeing your mom step out of the car with a random man instantly put you in a bad mood.
Why am I surprised? Of course, she couldn’t cut her trip short.
“Didn’t I tell you? My baby always has boys calling.” Her voice might have sounded proud but you knew it enough to know it was jealousy.
The man nodded with a big smile, you wanted to punch it off.
“My daughters' protectors though I don’t think they had to be here, after all, she wasn’t hurt.” Her eyes scanned the three standing in front of her.
With that, Randy took his chance to leave “I’ll see you tomorrow Y/n.”
Chicken. If he ran any faster there would be dust.
“Y/n, this is Charles.” She introduced this tall man, his hair was slightly grey but even you had to admit, he wasn’t bad looking. It made you wonder what was wrong with him.
You faked the nicest “Hi.” You possibly could “We’ll be in my room” You grabbed the boy's arms and quickly made your way there, ignoring anything else your mother had to say.
“Man, your mom couldn’t even go a few more days without the newest boyfriend?” Stu rolled his eyes.
“Hmm and he came with luggage, looks like he’s staying.” You dryly replied, closing the door and sitting on the bed.
“You ok?” Billy stepped forward, stopping at your legs.
You shrugged “It’s whatever, are we really surprised?” letting out a small laugh “So, no costumed psycho lurking around the house?”
Stu jumped onto your bed, laying down beside you “Sadly not.”
“Maybe I should have taken the girls up on a sleepover.” You huffed, laying down, you felt the bed dip as Billy climbed in “Or maybe Mr Ghostface could do me a favour.” You were thankful they got your sense of humour, laughing together you almost forgot about earlier.
“String them up?” Stu raised his eyebrows.
“Or hang them from the goalpost?” Billy chuckled.
“Mmm, I’d settle for something to scare her into being a mom.”
Stu leaned up on his elbow to face you “So, whadda Miss Nancy want at school? Give you a hard time?”
Turning over slightly “From class or after school?” a slight blush spread across your face, betraying your voice.
His eyes went to your lips before travelling back up “Both.”
You let out a small giggle, turning back to look at the ceiling “No, she was fine for class.”
“But?” Billy suddenly chimed in,
“After school she was checking up on me, to make sure I was ok.”
“Didn’t sound that way.” Billy copied Stu, sitting up and using his elbow to support himself, his eyes glued to you.
You laughed “She means well.” That’s when it clicked, you shot up standing in front of the bed, how did he hear? Stu couldn’t have told him since he wasn’t there either… They sat up, both looking confused.
“How would you know?” A sick feeling was starting to overwhelm you “Were… Were you watching me?”
He rolled his eyes “pfft, why would I? You misunderstood what I meant, that’s all.”
“Relax princess,” Stu mumbled.
“It fucking felt like someone was.” You were starting to panic.
“Come on, princess.” Stu’s voice was filled with concern.
Billy let out a small chuckle, standing up he walked towards you “I get it, after last night your paranoid.”
“Bullshit!” You spat, walking backwards, only stopping when you bumped into Stu.
His hands went to your shoulders, gripping hard. Before you could register Billy stalked forward, glaring at Stu until he let go of your shoulders and backed off a bit. Billy grabbed your arms pulling you into his chest “It’s alright, your just paranoid… Sssh, sssh… You’re safe with me, Y/n.” You could feel his hands move from your arms to your waist, following his lead, you wrapped your arms around him. Suddenly feeling guilty for thinking something was wrong, they were right.
“I’m sorry” You mumbled, trying to hide how your eyes were starting
to water “Your-your right, I’m going crazy.”
His finger wiped away a tear “Not crazy just scared.”
“How could you not be?” Stu chimed in.
You turned to see him pouting, letting a small giggle as you hold out your hand “Come on.”
It didn’t take much for him to join in, Billy continued to glare.
“I’m lucky to have you both.”
“Shit, don’t go soft on us princess.”
“Shut up.”
The three of you settled down spending the afternoon watching movies, the last one being The Exorcist, once it ended they both left. You spent a very awkward dinner with your mother and Charles, he seemed nice but then again, they all did. Trying your best to ignore them all over each
other as you washed the dishes, your concentration broke when the sound of the phone ringing echoed throughout the house.
Shakenly you dried your hands before answering, looking towards your mother to find she was still in her bubble.
“He-hello?”
“Y/n!”
“Billy? Freak, since when do you call?”
“I need you to listen to me, I’m at the police station.”
