There's no way. He can't be missing. I saw him this morning! He was fine! Everything was okay. This can't be real. It isn't real. He's fine. He's fine....

I look towards the scene, and wipe my tear's. Marching towards the lady. The cops noticing me, trying to hold me back.

"WHY WEREN'T YOU WATCHING OVER HIM?! why'd you fell asleep? When he was literally outside, on his own!!" I yelled, tearing up even more.

"Who even are you....?" She ask's, glaring at me.

"I'm his friend!! I'm the one who was actually here for your kid! Here whenever he was in trouble! The one who took care of him!" She laughs,

"The one who took care of him?! HAH! No that was me. I was the one who worked a lot, just to provide for him!"

"You sound just like my dad. Always saying 'I work hard for you kid's. To provide for all of you'. Were you really working hard to provide for him? Or only worked hard just to be able to buy beers?" I spat,

"And look at you? Pretending that you're actually upset for your son being missing. You probably didn't even knew he existed!" I yell,

"You...." She say's, walking towards me.

"Oh you wanna do this? Okay. Hold me back!" I tell the cop's, walking towards her.

"Enough!!" The cop say's.

"Sir! He went missing not so long ago! If we search now, we can find him!"

"I know. We'll send a search party to look for him. But for now, we need everyone to go home. It's not safe."

"I can h-"

"Go. Home. Kid." I sigh, and nod. Pedaling back home. I make it back, and walk inside. Dad notices me, and gets up.

"WHERE WERE YOU?"

"BE QUEIT! I'm not in the mood to deal with you." I reply, walking to Finn and Gwen.

"Holy shoot, Y/N. You heard about the missing kid? It's all over the news." Gwen say's. I nod, sitting down.

"You alright? Look's like you were crying," Finn say's, worried.

"That was my friend I told you about. Griffin." I reply,

"Holy shit. That was him??" Finn whisper's, I nod.

"Y/N, I'm so sorry. I didn't know."

"Sorry won't fix anything." I say. We all just sit there, in silence. I look at the TV, and see them showing a picture of That's when I lost it. I cover my mouth, and begin to cry.

"Holy shit, Y/N! Alright, enough TV. Let's go to your room. So you can get some rest." Finn say's, taking me to my room. Laying me down.

"I'll stay here with you, if you want. Try to get some sleep." I nod, and close my eyes.

I was sitting down outside, reading the book's Y/N got me. I already finished 2 book's! I smiled, and closed the book. I looked up, and saw the bullies. I sighed, and got up. Waiting.

They looked at me terrified, and ran away. Leaving me confused. Okay??

I picked up the book's, and looked at the window. Seeing mom taking a nap. I should go inside and take a nap, for a bit too. I then looked at my bike, and smiled.

I put the book's down, and ran towards my bike. Picking it up, getting on. I began to start pedaling in circles, on the road. I saw a boy with black hair, and a green shirt riding their bike too.

They noticed me, and waved. I waved back, and kept pedaling.

I looked up, and saw a black van parking. I got confused, but ignored it. I then see a man with weird looking clothes walking up to me.

"Hey, kid. Wanna see a magic trick?" They ask, I shake my head.

"C'mon, kid. Just one?"

"No, Thank you!" I reply, looking around to see if Y/N was anywhere around. I look back, and see the man running towards me. I gasp, and began to pedal away from the man. He catches up to me, causing me to fall off my bike. I yell, getting dragged to the van.

"Y/N! Help-" I yell, being cut off by the man spraying something in my mouth. I feel myself get sleepy, trying hard to stay awake.

I couldn't, and all I saw now was

I got up, and saw that Finney was no longer there. I got up, and began to get ready for school. I picked out my outfit, and changed.

😅

I walked to the kitchen, and saw that Finney made breakfast. I sat down, and began to eat. Everything seeming awkward.

"You alright, Y/N?" Finn ask's,

"I don't wanna go to school." I say,

"I know. But it's Friday! So, that's something? You woke up late, so you have to walk with us today." I nodded, and finished my meal.

"Alright, let's go."

••••

We made it to the school building, everyone talking about the missing kid.

"That's the first person that ever went missing!"

"I didn't even know that kid till now."

"He's probably already gone!"

I shake my head, and immediately go to my locker. I grab my stuff, and see Robin walk up to me.

"Hey, you alright?" He ask's, worried.

"Eh. I just feel off sense, y'know? Because of The Missing Kid." I reply, he nods.

"Ya, same. Don't worry about it, though. I won't let nothing happen to you. You're safe." He reassures, making me smile.

"Thanks, Robin. Like, for everything."

"Of course, I gotchu. You're safe under my protection."

"Thank you, again. Well, we should get to class." I say,

"Right." He says, smiling. I give him a quick hug. And run to class, smiling.
