Don't Blame The Movies 9
“Ha ha, real funny.”
“I’m not joking!” Billy growled through the phone “I need you to go and tell my dad, he’s not picking up for me or sheriff Burke.”
You walked over to the window, peeling back the curtain “What the fuck did you even do?”
You could hear his groan through the phone “I didn’t do it, they think I attacked Sid…”
You couldn’t believe what you were hearing, taking a deep breath “That’s crazy!” Just then you spotted Mr Loomis’s car coming down the street and pulling into their driveway “I’ve got to run.”
Billy chuckled “Are you fucking serious?”
“Your dad just pulled up, stay strong and don’t say shit until your dad gets there.”
“Anything else captain obvious?”
You laughed, saying your goodbyes you ran out the front door, running across the street at full speed, yelling out for Mr Loomis once you saw him getting out of his car. He looked up at you with worry.
“Y/n? Are you alright?!” His eyes darted behind you to the other side of the street “You shouldn’t be outside running around”
“Oh, sorry, I didn’t think! No, I’m ok but Billy’s been trying to call you”
He looked taken aback “Isn’t he inside doing homework?”
You shook your head “They’ve arrested him! You’ve gotta get down there fast!”
You’ve never seen Mr Loomis move so fast, he threw his briefcase back into the car quickly thanking you before speeding off. Walking back towards the house your mother came storming out to the front
porch “What in the world do you think you’re doing?! There’s some psycho roaming about and you’ve run outside at this time of night?!”
Letting out a loud groan “Mom, I’m fine. I had to run a message over to Mr Loomis.”
Two hours had passed and you still hadn’t heard any news, pacing back and forth you hear the cab pull up. Grabbing your bag and running out the door. It felt like a long drive, arriving at the police station you noticed the news vans had gone. Making your way in you couldn’t see Sidney anywhere.
They must have followed her…
“You should be at home.” Mr Loomis came out from behind a side door, making you jump.
Jump scares run in the family.
“Mr Loomis! I-I came to check in on Billy.”
He stood there in thought for a moment before caving in “That should be alright, I still have some stuff to talk over with Burke. Hey, can you can Y/n here down to see Billy?”
The officer groaned but motioned for you to follow.
“Thanks.” You smiled at Mr Loomis before walking down the back, Billy came into sight. He was laying on a bench staring up at the ceiling.
“Billy!” You ran over to the bars, holding them tightly.
He looked surprised to see you, he was next to you before you could blink.
“Y/n? What are you doing here?”
“I had to check on you.”
He sighed “How did you even get here?”
“Cab.”
“Wha- are you insane?” His voice sounded worried but he couldn’t stop a smile from forming.
Smiling back “Only a little. Nilly, what the fuck happened?”
Billy looked away and spoke in a low voice “I didn’t do it… Cops said I scared him away but sid freaked out.”
Seeing the hurt in his eyes you felt horrible for him, you grabbed his hand through the bars “Do you have to stay here tonight?” He gripped you hand back, not letting go.
“I don’t know yet… Y/n, you believe me don’t you?”
“You need to ask? Of course I do.”
“It’s time to go” Mr Loomis cut in, you both turned to look at him “You’ll have to stay tonight, they won’t release you until they have the phone records but I’ll be here first thing in the morning.” Billy simply nodded in reply “Y/n, do you need a ride?”
You nodd “I’ll see you tomorrow ok?”
The drive was slow and silent, pulling into the Loomis driveway, Mr Loomis turned to you before getting out “He’s lucky to have you.”
You smiled back “Do you think he did this?” you could hear the heartache in his voice.
“No, Mr Loomis. I trust Billy with my life.”

The morning had finally come, and you waiting for Billy outside school. You breathed a sigh of relief when you Spotted him getting dropped off by his dad, he spotted you and made his way over to you. You jumped into a hug “I was so worried!” you breathed in his scent and felt his nose on your ear “Are you ok? Both of you started slowly walking into the building, it was mostly empty, and everyone was already in class.
“I’m fine.”
“So, want to tell me what exactly happened?”
“Not really.”
You exhale “You are exhausting, it’s like pulling teeth getting anything out of you.”
This earned you a slight smile “Hmm, maybe I like making you work for it” he teased you.
You gave a small laugh “Luckily for you, I don’t mind being worked hard” lightly smacking his arm.
His smile grew, looking between you and the road “Oh, I know.”
You rolled your eyes “You wish”
Billy chuckled, you noticed a light blush appeared “Shut up” elbowing you lightly, he looked off to the side for a moment “I’ll catch up with you after class, alright?”
You nodded.
