Who asks "would you love me if I'm a worm?" And how do their SO respond?

LMAOO was giggling about this question i LOVE it

Robin asks Finney like. Lowkey seriously. Finney always snickers a bit at the question and tells Robin “of course I would” with a kiss on the cheek. :)

Billy and Griffin ask each other but like in a half joking half serious way. They always giggle after asking but always say that they would! Billy is always like “we could both be worms and go on worm adventures!”

Bruce is like “would you still love me if i was a worm? 😁” in a joking way but Vance is like “why the fuck would i talk to a worm in the first place??” and it always gets a good laugh out of Bruce

Amy asks Gwen but she can’t even get the full question out before they’re both dying from laughter. They can NOT take it seriously at all 😭

THIS IS HALLOWEEN

THE GHOST BOYS X READER <33

ALL PLATONIC

GENDER NEUTRAL PRONOUNS // THEY THEM!!

"THIS IS HALLOWEEN, THIS IS HALLOWEEN!" A voice cheered, letting out laughs as he ran alongside another boy. Whilst walking, Y/N would raise a brow at the sight of the local paperboy running alongside another. The invisible boy that nobody seemed to talk to in school. They were walking alone, clutching their bag of candy in hands. They knew who the group was, but talking to them was out of the question. Their eyes scanned the group, taking note of all the boys. People would call them mean or not, Y/N couldn't exactly remember the rumors that people would spread. Though they didn't care at all. It wasn't their business.

Continuing to walk, they tensed up slightly at the sound of footsteps behind them. They hadn't know who's footsteps they were, but they tried their best to ignore them. "Just keep walking. Just.... Keep walking." They whispered to theirselves, putting pressure on their legs as they walked. Before they heard a voice and felt someone tap their shoulder. Spinning quickly on their heel, they glanced at the boy that had tapped their shoulder. Finney Blake. One of the baseball kids of Denver. "Hey! Y/N, right? Your costume looks sick!" He complimented with a smile. He was nice. One of the more... nicer ones. At least when they asked about him in the schools. Standing with a rather confused look now, Y/N gave a slight smile in return to the other boys warm and genuine one. "Thanks... your costume's pretty cool too." Finney's costume almost looked like it was some kind of star royalty.

A crown of black and blue, a cape that had the constellations and stars all over it, dragging lightly behind him. He was wearing a fancy outfit too. Dark blue, purple, black and gold. It looked nice, Y/N could admit. Finney's smile had grown larger at the compliment, his eyes closing for a moment. "Thanks! I got help from Bruce.." He explained, motioning over to the baseball star, who was talking to a girl about two years younger. The baseball star was dressed as a zombie. He had made it so his left eye was no longer its usual shade of brown, but purely white with red splotches along his face. Indicating blood.

Bruce wore almost a replica of his usual outfit. A short sleeved white t-shirt with green sleeves, green collar, jeans and sneakers. Though it looked ripped. His shirt almost looked like a crop top, but it wasn't fully. His jeans were ripped too. One a full leg, the other like pair of shorts. His shoes and socks were normal. His stomach looked bloodied, like it's been cut open of some sort and he let himself bleed out. He had a bite mark on one arm, seeing as he must've been transformed into a zombie.

Y/N’s eyes soon landed on the local paperboy and the younger boy from before. The paperboy, whom they now realized to be Billy Showalter, was dressed as a makeshift wolf. Having what looked to be a headband with gray wolf ears on it, a belt that looked like a tail. He looked pretty decent. He had a red flannel on, black ripped jeans and a pair of sneakers. His flannel had only one full sleeve, but Y/N wouldn’t judge. Most werewolf movies always had ripped clothing. A soft hum escaped them before they spoke aloud. “All your outfits look good. I’m just a basic ol’ (c/c).” They explained, but Finney raised a brow. “Are you kidding me? Your outfit looks awesome!” He spoke happily, hearing a pair of footsteps walk towards him. Robin, his closest friend, but sometimes they acted more than that.

“Finn, you ready? Vance is close to stealing someone’s candy if you don’t hurry up.” The boy with the mask commented, lifting it up and letting it rest on his head, where his bandana would usually be. He wore a hockey mask, carrying a hockey stick with his bag of candy on the end of it.  "Oh. Hey Y/N!" He then greeted, giving a smile to the (h/c)'d individual. Robin was a relaxed kid, having no issues with anybody but a boy by the name of Moose. That kid was a douchebag, everyone knew that. Finally, Y/N's eyes landed on Vance Hopper. A kid who always got into more fights than Robin. They've heard the rumors around the school, but stuck to their own. Not like they cared about the rumors, it wasn't their issue to begin with.

Vance was covered in stitches. At least that's what it looked like. He had stitches all over his body. His arms, face, legs, hands. He basically looked like an experiment covered in stitches. It looked pretty cool. He had fake blood trailing down his face and head. He was complaining to Bruce and Amy, his eyes narrowed as he spoke, using his hands as he spoke. Y/N couldn't hear him, but knowing what Robin, Vance was getting impatient with how Finney was taking his time.  "Yeah, I'm ready! Oh! Y/N, do you wanna join us?" Finn answered before facing Y/N and smiling widely again. 

"You want me to join? I mean- if you don't mind. That'd be nice." Y/N spoke calmly, rubbing the back of their neck with the hand not carrying their bag of candy.  "We don't mind at all! Come on! Join the Halloween fun!"

TBP HEADCANONS

• Vance likes to be nurtured and prefers quiet, gentle things. If you approach him nicely and you talk to him nicely then he won’t be mean to you he just has a trigger for aggression.

• Bruce is multitalented. One of those guys who can do anything he really tries to and has done a lot. He’s done theatre, baseball, he’s really good at braiding hair and is excellent at writing informative essays but his main things are studying unsolved cases and filling notebooks with information on thinks he’s into.

• robin boxes every other day after school, he goes to this gym that’s sort of old and kind of empty so it’s usually just him in there. He brings a little radio and hustles a punching bag for hours. Sometimes Vance comes and works out with him, usually they don’t talk rather just enjoy each others company (and music taste. I think they like similar stuff.)

• Vance and Gwen and Amy are actually really good friends for some reasons 9/10 of the times the boys can’t find Vance it’s because he’s at one of their houses letting the girls braid his hair. He protects them but truly he’s scared of them they’re vicious rabid creatures

•Gwen, aside from her dreams and shit, just has really good intuition and can read people like books. Which is why she and Vance are such good friends because she reads him so well she somehow manages to know exactly whats wrong at all times, besides, she went through a stress toy phase and now has a drawer full of them she doesn’t use and Vance has taken all of them. Win win.

• griffin doesn’t know how to ride a bike. He swore up and down that he did and billy got annoyed and called his bluff, hopped off his bike and pat the seat. He couldn’t even get on it he was down on the sidewalk in half a second.

•billy is an advent fan of the outsiders and his favorite character is Darry. He likes to associate characters to his friends and it’s an inside joke between them who’s who. (Finney is pony boy, robin is Johnny. Vance is dally, Bruce is soda pop (but also billy argued he was cherry. He wanted to be soda pop) griffin is two bit, and billy is Darry. (And they wonder why that’s his favorite.) Gwen thinks she should be soda pop and Bruce should be cherry and not reverse but whatever! )

• finney and Gwen’s movie is grease. It’s their favorite, they have The soundtrack on tape and know the dances. They sing duets, finneys danny and Gwen is sandy. Gwen’s favorite song is hopelessly devoted and finneys is you’re the one that I want

•robin listens to a lot of rock and a bit of metal (mostly because of Vance who just needs someone to talk to about albums he likes so he tells Robin cuz Robin always actually listens to them.) he rly likes run dmc and the beastie boys. Any fast paced or loud music is his shit. Finney doesn’t like loud noises and he doesn’t enjoy listening to that kind of music it makes him antsy so their common ground is soft 50s / 60s music. (I.e those magic changes - Sha na na & anything Ritchie valens) but most of the time robin plays whatever he wants on his stereo and just keeps it super low.

•robin and Vance have daily smoke seshs in the bathroom (one robin fought to own literally. Like he put a group of seniors on their asses freshmen year and now it’s his bathroom no one goes in there)

•Billy’s really into old movies and is constantly in the library trying to read up on old 1920s actresses

•billy likes classical music. He buys cheap tapes and lets them play softly in the background

•robins bed is in the corner of his room against a wall so whenever finney sleeps over he sleeps on the side pressed against the wall because sometimes he gets nightmares and makes monsters out of the shadows in the room but from the corner he can’t see them.

•Vance hopper is a writer he’s awful at SAYINg how he feels so he writes to people. He writes poems and stories and stuff and he’s a real good story teller he just can’t figure out how to get the words out of his mouth

•griffin has undiagnosed adhd and spent all of his life getting yelled at by his mother over it. He’s self conscious about himself and tries to do things quietly in dark corners but the boys are never annoyed with him when he talks or runs around or stims and it helps him come to terms with himself

• griffins dad and Vance’s mom are dating and have been since they were younger. They live together and even though Vance still has to go see his dad on a court order and stuff griffin always waits at the doorstep for him or drives with his mom to drop and pick him up

•Bruce is the oldest in the group and takes on a motherly type role. He’s always there to help them, constantly feeds them and buys them stuff and talks to them like he’s sooo much older then them and how he’s sooo tired from raising kids and working but deep down it makes him happy to provide and make other people happy. He needs to be taken care of too and there’s always someone there for him (usually Vance because he’s a little more mature then the others and notices when Bruce is down before they do. Not their faults though, sometimes they just don’t peep it for a while.)

•robins mom loves finney, she jokes about loving him more then robin All the time. Sometimes they’ll lay at the foot of her bed while she’s watching tv and just whisper to eachother. She enjoys their company and really likes it when they stay home she much prefers they just stay right by her side for safety

•robin has a dog named paco , he’s a 3 year old brown pit bull. Very rowdy and clumsy just like robin :)

When me and like ten other users are holding up the black phone fandom (follow me if you like it)

[bunny-lou]

Finney and Bruce continue to play baseball against each other for several years, but they’re friends, both on the field and off the field, and the real rivalry is between their Dumb Ass Boyfriends who are competing to see who is the better cheerleader.

The game starts are the stands are filled with parents and family and students and Robin, who is wearing Finney’s letterman jacket and shouting for his pitcher boyfriend to ‘get their asses out! Send them home crying like babies’ and he’s grabbing Gwen’s pompoms and shaking them around.

On the other side of the stands, Vance is at the fence, shaking it and howling for Bruce to ‘FUCKING DESTROY THEM BABE’ as other people watch his feral-ness in horror.

So at the next game, Finney and Bruce are hiding their faces because now these idiots have painted themselves: Robin has ‘front range’ painted on his face, one word on each cheek, while Vance has worn only his jean vest, no shirt underneath, and painted ‘optometrists’ across his chest.

Bruce and Finney remain friends, small talk before games and genuinely congratulating each other afterwards, discussing their sisters and professional players on the breaks, both of them ignoring their obnoxious boyfriends who are howling for blood.

And it progresses every game and every year until Robin convinces Gwen and Suzie to get the rest of the cheerleaders at Finney’s game and they’re echoing his cries for desolation, just a bunch of junior high girls repeating his chant of ‘wreck their asses! wreck their asses!’ as Robin holds up giant handmade signs every time Finney is pitching, while Vance and his friends wear comically huge glasses to support the North Denver Optometrists, beating on their chests every time Bruce hits a home run.

The worst part about it is that any other baseball game, Vance and Robin act like civilized humans. If Finney is playing against any team who’s not the Optometrists, Robin shows up with some shouts of joy, but mostly talking to Gwen about upcoming horror films. And as long as Bruce isn’t up against the Front Range, Vance is supportive, but bored in the stands with Amy, and constantly asking how much longer until the game is over and they can go play pinball.

[f1inl3ey]

I feel like when Bruce is really mad at people he does things thats just a huge inconvenience for his victims.

Amy pissed him off? Upside down cups full of water right outside her door. Teammate pissed him off? Instant mash potato mountains on said teammates lawn. Him and vance argue? Glitter on Vance’s fan blades. Someone says a really bad pun that pissed Bruce off? Their lawn looks really muggy. His dad pissed him off? Glitter in his air vents. Finney pissed him off? All his left socks and right shoelaces are now gone. Robin pissed him off? Cuts all the belt loops off of his jeans (he’ll sew them back on later). Billy pissed him off? There’s holes in his bike tires (dw hes got spares). Griffin pissed him off? Bike lock code has been changed.

You get what I’m saying? I just think that Bruce is very chaotic and funny with his revenge. He doesn’t go too far with it but it’s far enough to let people know to maybe not do that again or else the glitter specks you haven’t found yet will be added to.

Also this definitely wasn’t an excuse to give you all ideas for some funny/lighthearted revenge

FINNEY BLAKE

His little sister is someone that will share everything with him , her celebrity crushes , her latest gossip , her favorite new book , etc , and he would listen everytime even if he didn't care that much about it

But Finney noticed that she was more quiet lately , but Gwenny would always say she was tired , and that's it .

Until one day she confessed his older brother that she had some of her notebooks pages scratched , tore apart and with really awful drawings and messages , some really gruesome to describe a little girl . Finney was of course mad , because did not only Gwen hide something from him , but there's someone messing with his sister that he knows she didn't mess with first

Gwen defended herself saying that she was trying to find who did it but she couldn't do it , until yesterday , when she asked her classmates once again who did it and they said that someone older enter her classroom when her backpack was still there

Suzanne , her best friend , added new information about the situation : She saw you entering to her classroom with color papers rolled up

He knew you from the mathematics class , so when he saw you escaping trough the empty hallways , he followed you , and decided to confront you

" Stop it , I need to talk with you "

You turned around and saw him grabbing tight his backpack shoulder strap

" You need to stop doing those things to my sister , she's only a 6th grader and didn't do anything to you , it's not ok to draw those disgusting things and write that stuff on Gwen's notebooks , you're older than her , you should know that "

On Finney's perspective , he was in front of a kid of his same age that has been bothering his sister not only in a anonymously way , but in a constant way too , trying , no , decided , to make them back off from her

But in your perspective , you woke up and didn't have the opportunity to eat even an apple as a breakfast because your parents started to bark at each other again and then you , when they couldn't find the keys of the car and saw you existing on your house

Who would guess that the only time you entered on a 6th grade classroom was to put some color papers for the kids by your art's teacher orders ?

You obviously got offended , and started to tell your version of the story , you were not only dealing with your family madness once again , but this too ?

When he saw you not backing off and not telling " the truth " he told you to stop playing the innocent / victim card and just accept what you " did"

You couldn't simple just pretend you didn't call slut shaming names to a child .

His insistence , the way he was talking , gas lighting you like your parents did before , triggered something in you that made you started to blurry your vision and just walk away when your tears started to fall down your face

Not exactly aware where you going , you walked away from school , and sat on the edge of the side walk hiding hour face in your arms and legs

That's when you heard a strange voice say

" Why's the river dear child ? Would magic make those tears disappear ? "

2 weeks after that encounter your missing person poster was all over the town .

One of those days once again , Gwen finds in her notebook a bad quality drawing of you dead with a speech bubble that had " It wasn't me" written on it

Finney was ready to walk home side by side with Gwen but she had a serious expression on her face this time , without saying nothing , she takes her notebook and shows the drawing of you to him

The siblings could never look at your photos again without feeling guilty , 3 days after you went missing the unholy trinity bastards of Buzz , Matt and Patt admitted the fault , making them feel stupid for not thinking about them as suspects of it in the first place

Specially Finney , who can't stop thinking that he was the last person that saw you alive , yet that time he made you cry , he made you go away

He was the one that has the fault for your gone , and he has to live with the feeling . All .His . Life .

BRUCE YAMADA

Coming back from chilling on a friend's house Bruce goes upstairs to change clothes on his bedroom but when he was on the hallway of the second floor he hears quiet sobs coming from his little sister's place

Confused , he puts his ear close the door to hear better and knocks at the girl's door , but there was no answer , she continued crying

Slowly , he opened the door of her bedroom , and found his little sister Amy sitting on the floor with her cheeks all wet from so many tears dropping from her eyes . Bruce had to admit that lately he and his sister weren't close like they used to , him being a teenager and stuff

But even then , he sat next to her and rubbed her back asking what happened and why she was so sad , he was expecting the reason to be a broken toy , a nightmare , a heartbroken from her playground crush , anything

Anything... Except that someone of his class was making fun of her and breaking her favorite school notebooks and pencils , the ones she cherished the most , and threatened her to stay quiet ... The little girl being too scared of even mentioning the names of the responsable... Or responsables...

" Don't worry Amy , I will make sure they stop bothering you , I promise "

The next day when the teacher sat down to look over some papers he asked permission to talk with everyone in the classroom about what happened , and find out who did it

" Y'all probably know I have a little sister , Amy , yesterday when I came back home she told me that someone in this class was mocking her in all possible ways and breaking her stuff like favorite notebook or color pencils . If you have a problem with me , I have all the time of the world to solve however you want to , i don't care , but messing with my sister and 6th grader kid ain't right , you're supposed to know better than that , unless y'all cowards that will stay silent and not tell me the truth in the face "

The teacher was too shocked to speak with the sudden serious attitude of the star student and the people sitting on their desks were unsure to speak or react since they didn't want to messed up more and makes things more difficult more than the situation already is

Until a girl said that he should go and tell the same exact thing to you , the " guilty " one , that has been gone the entire class after asking to go to the bathroom and probably knew he was going to find it out

You in the other hand were going about to have a breakdown and didn't want it to be around everybody that categorized you as the " ugly quiet kid " from the back of the classroom , you wanted some time alone , and went to the bathroom , where you cried over those horrible thoughts in your mind until your eyes were to dry to drop more tears

You washed your face and tried to compose yourself to not look " recently sad " and did your regular breathing exercise in these cases . Now done , you went outside the bathroom , and just in a few steps , you saw Bruce

You tried to give a closed lips smile to give the " I'm ok / friendly " facade , but he didn't return the gesture , he was in fact , not as happy and smiley as the usual Bruce , he was .... Different

" You should've know I would find it out sooner or later , when did I did something wrong to you ? What Amy's had to do with this ? Why involved her ? Why mess with her instead of just , I don't know man , tell ME those things ? "

You were confused and disoriented , you couldn't put the pieces together of why Bruce was being this harsh or what he was talking about , all you did was stare

" You're not gonna say something ? You have nothing to say after breaking her stuff , telling her to die , to stop eating and to leave the country where she was born ? To a innocent little girl instead someone of your age ?"

You tried to defend yourself but it was useless , the entire group blamed you to keep the spot away from them from being guilty and nothing could change Bruce's mind about it , after all , if you were innocent , why you went out of the class on the first place ?

You didn't have the energy to keep arguing or to stay while the principal or teacher called your parents and wait for the worse to happen , for something that you didn't do , so you walked out from school and decided to head straight to your best friend's house , your only safe place

But you never got there .

That night after the Yamada's were done eating dinner , Bruce knocked her sister's door , opened when he got Amy's permission and with a smile , he told her

" Hey Amy , I just wanted to tell you that I already told the bad person to stop bothering you and they promised to stop doing it , you don't have to worry anymore "

But the smile soon fade away when Amy's asked her older brother if he told the boyfriend of the girl to stop too

And then he realized what he done ... His mistake ....

That girl was his rival baseball team pitcher's girlfriend , and since they were afraid to put anything up with Bruce due his popularity , they came for Amy instead

He would ride his bike on the way to school hoping to see you again , to apologize and start over , but he never did , he never had the chance , only your missing posters like a painful reminder of who you were are .

ROBIN ARELLANO

He's used to be called all type of names , he's a dark skin hispanic boy living in the 70's after all , although he doesn't let himself be down for it anymore , and instead he learned to be proud of who he is

So when he would see racist slurs on his desks or papers with written messages on it on his backpack , he would only sigh because how tedious it was to clean those from his desk and sometimes laugh at the creativity of some insults

But the anonymous dutch bag didn't only stayed with him , oh no ...

Not surprised at all , it wasn't Finney who would admit having insulting messages written on papers that had a long list of homophobic slurs hided on his backpack , but Gwen , who told him what was going on with his friend

With a mixed feeling of anger and sadness , he only told his buddy that It'll be over as soon as he found who's the coward behind all this , and thanked the girl with candies

It was harder to find the fucker this time , no face , no voice , no nothing , except one thing , their hand writing

He may not be math's smart , but he's for sure an astute dude . When nobody was looking and the teachers were eating lunch , he entered the classroom and started to check one by one the hand writing of Finney's classmates , comparing them with the last " letter " that they left for him

Unlucky you , your hand writing was almost exactly like the one in the paper , and with your name already known , Robin was ready to clarify some stuff with you

On your way to school you heard someone calling your name , and by your surprise , the one calling you was the second toughest kid in school , and that caught the attention of other students walking on the streets . Walking towards you , calm yet with a serious expression Robin said

" You know my friend Finney , right ? Your classmate ? The one that has to deal with your bullshit every fucking day ?"

Oooooh's were heard from the kids and you honestly started to get scared because the situation felt unreal to you

" I'm getting tired of telling this over and over , you know ? Fuck with Finney again .."

He stops , just a few steps from you

" I'll fuck with you . Get it ?"

You couldn't just stay silent so you spoke your yourself

" Excuse me but I don't have any idea of what are you talking about "

For you he only nodded in silent after you talked , in the other hand , it was taking all of Robin's inner strength to not smack your face for pretending to be clueless about this

" Finney had to deal almost A MONTH with your paper shit that has your hand writing on it , so stop pretending you're innocent , cus you ain't "

You still couldn't believe what was going on , the whispers between the crowd that you didn't know when did it formed started to get louder , but your voice was still stucked in your chest that was pumping from the adrenaline

" Don't believe me ? I'll show you "

Suddenly your arm was grabbed and everyone gasped , Robin takes a paper from his Jean's pocket and shows you a paper that has the message " Better kill yourself like your mother did faggot trash " with yes , an identical copy of your hand writing , now how can you explain yourself at this ?

As soon as the young chorus started to scream for " Fight !" you feared the worst , so unintentionally your eyes started to water up and you plead to be left alone , that it was mistake , that it wasn't you

But he didn't believe you , instead , he started to shake you while keeping the paper close to your face

" If I ever saw your hand writing again on this shitty papers I'll make you read every fucking message you wrote after I beat the shit out of you in front of everybody in school , understood ?"

You tried to explain , you tried to make him understand that it wasn't you who did everything that he said

" I said , UNDERSTOOD !?"

Defeated , you nodded , and he let you go with a disgusted expression . Not being able to handle more eyes staring at you , you walked back to your home hoping your parents were still there and didn't went to work yet , so you could at least have a shoulder to cry on

But you never went back home .

1 week before Moose and Robin's fight and 3 after your disappearance another message was found on Finney's notebook

" your cocksucker friend got the wrong one fairy bitch"

Moose got what he deserved right after , but at what costs ?

You were gone , and everytime Robin walks in the street and sees your photo on the missing posters can't stop wondering why he didn't did the right thing and looked further instead of just blaming you

But nothing that he has to say would bring you back , ever .

BILLY SHOWALTER

Billy would focus only on paying attention in class , do his homework , study and repeated all over again , it was like that since he left the football team , and it wasn't bad either

He was on the middle ground between popular and invisible , and he was thankful for it , because he didn't have to deal with a lot of people or assholes that saw him as inferior to them

But everyone has to taste suffering once in their life , right ?

At first , in his desk he would find the usual vulgar drawings and slurs that were similar as the one written all over the men's bathroom walls . They were easy to erase , no big deal

Then the messages had his name on it , but he didn't felt like a personal attack to him , his name is a common name between boys , no panic

But the messages started to be written on his notebooks and school manuals , and those were harder to erase or ignore like the previous one

Billy was pissed , he didn't had the energy to deal with a bully and his school material ruined after working so hard in keeping it on shape , but his " consolation " was that the one doing this didn't even have the courage to show their face .

They were miserable people with free time on their hands that decided to make him their target , they must be really bored to choose him though . And nothing works better for these type of garbage than ignore them

The last part being ... half true .

When the insults got boring , repetitive and easily forgettable , the no name writer took a more serious turn , took the challenge of making him mad on their own hands

His concern grew up faster when the messages talked about jumping him in the hour of his paper news delivery , writing his house direction repeatedly and scary drawings of dead dogs

Now he couldn't let it slide . Not with his dog , not with his best friend , not with her . He needed to put a stop to this , needed to find who

He packed his stuff more slower this time watching over his shoulder wich classmates were faster to go and who stayed longer to leave

And you , he never noticed before , always were the last one to leave

He went to the cafeteria to buy a snack and time and went back to the classroom , he walked into the classroom and , oh surprise , you were there again

Billy didn't understand why you hated him so much , he doesn't mess with anybody on this god damn school , but now he doesn't have time to listen your reasons , now you will listen to him

" You better stop writing that shit on my notebooks and manuals or I will tell the teacher about your sick messages "

Confused , you tried to come back to reality after you zoned out for so long to understand the situation

" I'm sorry ? What messages ?"

He step closer but never too close to you , frustrated

" Oh come on man , you're the only one that stays after class in this place , the only one that takes a eternity to walk outside the classroom , I'm tired of your fucking bullshit ! I don't fuck with anybody or you in the matter , AND YET , I have to tolerate my notebook and manuals ruined because of you ! "

You tried to speak to clarify the situation but he interrupts you with a much louder voice , you never thought it was possible to see him like this

" I better not see you at the streets or I'll throw a god damn paper new on your face , less than anything to my dog , you better not touch my fucking dog or I'll do worse than that !"

Oh no .... A ... Dog ? .... Like .... The once you had but lost recently ?

Before Billy took his backpack from the chair , he looked at you one last time

" My parents and I work hard to get what I have , you know ? ..."

You felt sorry... This isn't your fault , it's so sad what he's telling you , but-

" I don't care if you insulted me or whatever , but don't fuck with animals , they can't defend themselves... So you better watch out what you do "

That left you with a bad taste in your mouth , someone wanted to hurt his pet , his companion in his daily life an mornings of delivering

School's over , you waited for your parents to pick you up while you were thinking of what Billy told you , you really needed to tell him tomorrow that you ain't the one he's looking for . You only stayed alone on the classroom because you were grieving by your own the death of your dog

But the day tomorrow never came for you .

The same day of your kidnapping , your classmates waited for Billy to throw rocks at him while he was riding his bike , he almost fell down , and Harper almost looses her eye for those bastards

When he came back home and his mother started to patch him up , he couldn't stop thinking that he barked at you for no reason , that he didn't even let you speak for yourself , how stupid he was for letting Harper be hurt by his incompetence

Seeing your photo on the paper news was like a kick on the stomach

" I'm sorry for what I said to you ... "

But it was just a piece of paper , while the real you was buried 3 feet under the ground of that man's basement .

GRIFFIN STAGG

Griffin at first was the perfect target for bullies . Kind , non confronting , quiet , a "weak " book worm that didn't anyone either to stand up for him . With time , the same bullies got bored of him , as if they were expecting a more dramatic reaction from him , but no , he would just let it happen , and that took the " fun " of bullying him they thought

And for for many years , he would be invisible for everybody , he told himself he liked being left alone and have his privacy , but deep down , it was the acceptance to the fact that he didn't have any friends , and nobody wanted befriend him neither , not like he felt he had a lot to offer

But at least he was in peace to study , eat and read whenever he wanted to . At least he has that .

Or well , he had .

He would found his backpack on the trash can , maybe a bully confused his backpack with another poor bastard ?

But It kept happening , so that was not a confusion anymore .

Sometimes his notebooks would be all scratched all over the pages until it was full black , some manuals of his had broken pages as well His mom better not find that out

Different from the past , he tried to make it stop this time . He tried everything , changing places where he kept his things , carrying his backpack whenever he could , even changing locker combination and writing them down on a secluded notebook

But no matter what he did , how he did it and when he did it , his backpack would always have a horrible surprise waiting for Griffin to see

It was almost like some poltergeist was messing with him at this point .

He was already frustrated from so many bullshit going on , but what sent him to the edge of explosion was that the book he got from the library , " The little prince " by Antoine de Saint-Exupéry , got dipped in presumptuously dirty toilet water , a book that he needed to return or else the librarian would not allow him to take books anymore

The moment he thrown the book away back into the trash he rushed into the bathroom and cried from anger . Griffin could only ask himself , why ? Why someone wanted to ruined his life so bad ? Why after so long jerks remembered his existence ? Why or why this is happening to him ?

The next day after he had P.E he saw you taking his backpack out of the trash , and since he had so much frustration accumulated inside him , instead of rationalizing you helping him , he saw you as the persecutor of his misery , blaming you without second thought

He grabbed his backpack with disgust and anger and looked at your other arm where you held your books .... And saw the name of his recently bought book " Fahrenheit 451 by Ray Bradbury "

" Hey , that's my book , give it back ! "

You put both of your arms in front of the two of the books , the story and the big grammar manual

" What !? no ! it's mine ! I was just trying to get the backpack out of the trash ! "

He dropped his backpack harshly , he was not having it

" Cut me some slack , will ya !? I only wanted to read and do my homework like a normal person in school and you had to make my life a living hell ! The librarian lady don't trust me anymore because of you ! Give me back what it's mine !"

You tried to protect the book with your arms but Griffin with all the strength his body was grabbing your arms and trying to open them , you were really struggling to keep fighting much longer

The moment you dropped the books he took fast as light switch the one he was looking for , but you didn't want him to go away with your favorite book , so you both started to pull harder to get it

But the book was teared apart as you both fall into the ground , you with only the half of the cover , and he with the broken book

" Look what you've done ! You ruined another book again ! "

Frustrated at the boy's attitude you got up from the ground and went after the teacher's to call your family because " you started to feel sick " , and lucky you , they were planning on taking you out for lunch

Your family noticed that you were more quiet than usual , but you only said you were tired ... Tired of regretting to help someone and get your stuff stolen so much

Outside the restaurant , you saw trough the window a puppy that started to look around and seemed lost , you tried to tell your family about it , but you couldn't see exactly where did they go

You went outside , it was just a one sec thing .

You called the puppy and put your hand close to it so they could smell you . The puppy started to cry and move it's paws , as soon as you started to pet it they started to lick your hand , tickling your skin and making you giggle

In one sec you got outside to pet that cute little puppy , and in one sec , the bad wolf , the so called The Grabber , took you away .

Griffin wanted to kick himself when he saw the same book that he broke inside his backpack , deciding to tell his mom once for all what was going on so she could help him buy a new version of the book and give it to you

2 days later , your missing posters were all over the school path , making the boy scared of how fast this Grabber was taking kids away , making the boy sad for having two copies of the same book because he didn't checked his backpack first

Later on lunch break he found his backpack once again in the trash , hearing a group of girls giggle behind him

He wishes to go back in time to make things different , but that's something that happens on books stories only .

VANCE HOPPER

There was no doubt Pin Ball Vance Hopper was the toughest kid in school , and he knew it , proud of his status that gives him the ultimate " Don't fuck with me " power

A lot of people had tried to take his title away , many wanted to have the privilege to say they defeated him , but the more time would pass , the more feared he was , because he would win again , and again , and again .

So that being said , nobody wanted to even look at him in the wrong way , walking on eggshells whenever he's around , and that's how he likes it or how he got used to

Now tell me , if everyone in the entire school knew to stay on their fucking places , why the fuck he had his pencils stolen and broken in two ?

Now , he wouldn't wait to find out who , oh hell no , he's not gonna tolerate that shit happening

He started to ask and grab by the shirt any poor idiot that looked at him more than 2 seconds when he demanded explanations , but they would always answer the same thing

" No please , don't hurt me !" " I'm sorry , I don't want any trouble ! " Chill man , I don't know what are you talking about !" " please stop you're hurting me ! " And bla , bla , bla , bla , bla

But it didn't only stayed on messing with his pencils , no , no , no , the motherfucker started to write his locker all over with threats and a colorful variation of insults

But nobody saw who did it , nobody saw nothing , nobody sees shit when you need it , and that made Vance even more cranky than he already was

The no name no face fucker pulled up a move that nobody has dared to do before , touch his drawing notebook .

He couldn't find it anywhere , students were scared for their lives even if they didn't even knew that thing existed when he started to shout like a furious demon , teachers couldn't calm down the problematic student or make him explain calmly the situation

And then he walked out from the class , from school , without saying anything else , only coming back the very next day with a crowbar to open himself every fucking locker until he founded his notebook .

Teachers yelled at him to stop terrified , students were on a distant circle shocked about what they were watching but too nervous to stay close to Vance Hopper with a possible weapon on his hands , you being part of that confused and scared crowd

He opened 9 , 10 , 11 lockers , and no signal of the only drawing notebook that he has , number 12 .... Your locker , it busted open , and it inside had a similar looking notebook of his . He grabbed the notebook , checked the pages , and he confirmed that he got back what he was looking for

But Vance needed an answer , now .

" Whose locker is this , huh !? WHOSE FUCKING LOCKER IS THIS !? WHO STOLE MY FUCKING NOTEBOOK !?"

By your surprise , the people got away from you and kept starting at you in a way of saying " This is the owner of the locker "

He dropped the crowbar and speed walked towards you , and since you knew you wouldn't be able to defend yourself in any way, you started to run away , and so did him

You felt your feet almost slipping away , his angry breathing and foot steps sounds behind you , along with the distant sounds of the students keeping the track to see your public execution

You don't remember how exactly you did it , but you lost him , and got away hiding behind the school block's back place

Tired and with your legs and lungs burning , you lay yourself to the wall and try to compose yourself , never acknowledging that you were on the school's block , yet outside on the street

With your eyes closed and a body that had already gave everything to escape before , it was easy for the bad man to kidnap you inside his van .

The school suspended Vance for a week , nothing new he would say , but this time the police was more rougher than before the time they came for him

The majority of the people thought that the young man Hopper had something to do with your disappearing , and the police did too , but he told them the truth , and said he didn't even knew you were gone if he was on his house all day and that was .... Half true

He saw your missing posters all over the neighborhood , but he didn't care that much , he kept living his life while trying to beat his damn high score , another kid was lost in the town , so what ? He's too strong to be kidnapped anyway .

The police set him free , and he went to the Grab n' Go once again

Inside , Mrs Ellen wasn't there , and his dear pin ball machine had .... Had a crack on the glass of it !?

He looked around to see if somebody was there as well , but nobody was on the sight

If The jungle queen machine could speak , it would cry over the graffitis they made over the tigers on the sides

" Motherfuckers .... "

Two familiar boys entered inside the mall , one with straight brown long hair and other with a black curly hair and a bandage on his right arm

" Remember us dip shit ? We told you were coming for you "

The two had a pocket knife and a thirst for vengeance , vengeance that they should have kept anonymous

Angry like a wild hungry animal , he fought the two kids with his bare hands until carving once again on their arms with those tiny ass knifes whatever shit would come to his mind as if the first time wasn't enough for them

The kids ran away trying to keep the balance on their step , but failed due how fucked up their faces were and the pain on their arms

Vance sat tired on the ground with his hands covered in blood . Him seeing those two dumb shits run remembered him the last time he saw you

We really ain't nothing in this life , isn't ?

He chased you for nothing , and God knows where the fuck you are now , probably dead , never able to see the sun again

The lady of the mall screams in fear to see the blond messy hair kid like that after getting out from the washroom

" ... I would say I'm sorry if I could or if you were still alive , but that wouldn't change shit . What it's done , it's done .... "

The junior Pin Ball wizard thought as he heard moments later the police siren coming for him .

[mariedreamlove]

Feeding into the sibling headcanons of my newest fic ( a second chance (I'll take it no matter what)):

Finney and Gwen:

- their bond is even closer, they understand eachother without words

- if someone even tries to pick on either of them, the other comes to the protection, if verbally or physically is actually more or less depending in what condition the other sibling is.

- Gwen would literally travel through time for Finney, and does so.

- Finn's main goals are simple: protect the boys, make sure the Grabber doesn't even realize Gwen exists.

- They have disagreements. Quite often actually, though they still have the mentality : we can't be against one another if someone is against us two (either their dad or the Grabber)

- Finney still eats Gwen's ice cream, and she drinks his grape sodas if she gets the chance.

- she also likes, if the situation let's it be, to pick on Finney's crushes. (Donna First, then Robin.)

- tho Finney acts like he doesn't like it, he enjoys buying Gwen sweets or magazines or anything she likes.

- they always are there for eachother, and know of to clam the other one down I'm case of a panic attack.

- Gwen always tells Finney everything, and he tells her almost everything.

Donna & Billy (they are siblings in this AU)

- They don't have a great relationship ( constant fights, sometimes getting physical with shoving and when they were younger even hitting)

- after Billy was kidnapped, Donna fell into some kind of trance and just acted like.. nothing happened. She couldn't quite grasp what had happend and that her brother didn't return from his paper route. After his killer was dead though, she fell into a kind of realization and now only wants to make things better, change the past and save him to get the chance to at least tell him how sorry she is for him she treated him.

- Billy always left, though the siblings mostly were cold to eachother, a chocolate bar before Donna's door if they had a fight to say he was sorry. He doesn't know how to say sorry really. Sometimes it annoys Donna but she also appreciates it.

- Billy is a year and a half older than her, and is constantly acting like he is absolutely superior to her because of this ( he is only a few inches taller than her, and in the future Donna would have grown taller than him).

- tho they absolutely act like they despise eachother or don't know eachother, they can grow quite protective of eachother. Of course this grow into fights sometimes.

- Billy has terrible fears of storms and tornados, after he survived a bad storm on one of his routes. (A tree he was driving under was hit by lighting and a branch almost fell on him, but he survived with only a few bruises and a broken toe) Donna then either told him stories or just slept in the same room as him. Neither of them talk about it, but it happens.

- they do have to go through a lot of therapy before they can say to eachother that they love and appreciate each other. (Yet Donna traveled back in time to save him from the Grabber.)

Vance & Griffin

- Griffin used to sit right next to Vance and watch him with Vance's other friend break his Highscores and was having the time of his life while doing so, because oh my god the Vance Hopper is my brother and he lets me watch!

- Vance is a terrible comforter, and Griffin is a emotional kid. Chaos ensues everytime Griffin comes to his big brother crying and he just tries to clam him down. He often just offers to buy him ice cream or go catch bugs with him.

- While Vance likes to fight, while not in any sport, and to play pinball but this irrelevant for this rn, he wouldn't do it in front of Griffin. Not because his brother doesn't like violence nor not to scare him. Griffin just gets way too much of a big mouth and tries acting like Vance, while being build like a stick. ( How easy his back was to break.. like a stick.)

- the two curse a lot around eachother, and Vance tries to talk Griffin out of trying to beat people up. Because he can't, and Vance is terrible at patching himself up. Let alone his little brother!

- their dad isn't around a lot, so Griffin looks up to Vance. He gets a lot of his humor from Vance and his attitude sometimes.

- tho sometimes having different opinions, they two always stick together.

- Griffin loves bananas while Vance despises them like he has personal beef with them.

- as ghosts, while Vance was in the basement, Griffin knew he knew Vance from somewhere. Vance called out to Griff, but Griffin never realized they were brothers. When Vance died, he hugged Griffin so hard and cried harder than ever before, even while dying he didn't cry so hard. He apologized for leaving him alone that day for not walking him to school and anything. Griffin just asks who Vance is.

- normally Vance walks Griffin to school ( on the day of his kidnapping they had a fight.. Vance stayed home while Griffin walked to school. We know how this one ended.)

- Griffin is someone who overhears, through being almost unnoticeable to his peers, everything. Meaning Vance knows exactly what someone said. Because Vance is the one Griffin tells everything.

Bruce & Amy

- don't get always along, kind of rivals in things to impress their parents.

- when they were younger, they had a similar situation as Billy and Donna, but they grew over it. They still have tension but get along way better.

- Amy is more antisocial than Bruce, and unlike him she tells when she doesn't want something.

- Amy loves sweets, while Bruce likes more spicy snacks and less sweet deserts.

- Amy is at every Baseball game of Bruce, and he goes to every soccer game she has.

- After Bruce disapeared, Amy's grades really got low. So low, she had to repeat the year, because she was so distraught by her big brother dissapearing.

- for that reason she didn't like Donna. They were in the same situation and shoes, their big brothers being gone, and Donna acted like.. nothing happened. After Finney disappeared she and Gwen got to be friends, and later she warmed up to Donna too, after realizing that was the way she dealt with the trauma.

- Bruce tells Amy all about his problems and is the only person he is like half out to, and she does so too.

Robin and literally everyone.

- the literal only only child in the friend group.

- he acts like a big brother to the younger siblings (Griffin, Gwen and Donna, sometimes Amy if Bruce brings her along) and like the annoying younger brother to Vance and Bruce and Billy, and to Finney he's his soulmate.

- he one time snuck all of his friends in his uncle's truck to the cinema without him knowing

- he got the best lunches, because either his mom or his uncle make them.

- look at his friends the wrong way and he'll make you pay. Bare you nice, he'll be nice

1 day

3rd pov

Gwen shot up in bed, panting. The number 7741 was racing through her thoughts. She had finally had another dream. It was a house, red, had a fence surrounding it, and had a tree in front. The number on the house was as 7741. This was the house she knew it. But she had to make sure it was actually the house. She had to make sure it was real.

"Gwenny it's time to wake up." Her father said knocking on her door. Gwen pealed her sheets off of her body and turned her body so that her feet were dangling off her bed. The only thing in her way was going to school. So she decided that she was going to go straight to looking for that house after school. She was determined to find out who the hell was taking all these kids.

Gwen got out of bed and picked out her clothes and got dressed before walking out and into the kitchen. Her brother Finney was already at the table eating a bowl of cereal rather loudly. "You think you could slurp that a little louder? I don't think they can hear you up In boulder" their father said as he peaked behind his news paper. This was a daily accorance for Finney, it seemed like he could never just remember not to slurp. Gwen wanted to reduce the chance of her getting shouted at so she decided on so she decided on a piece of toast.

The entire walk to school both Finney and Gwen were as quite as mice, until they stopped at both y/n and Vance's missing posters taped to a fence side by side. "Have you had any of those dreams Gwen?" Finn asked staring at the missing posters. "Yeah" she mumbled, "they're gonna find her" Finn reassured himself. "They're going to find her." He repeated before he began to continued the walk. Gwen hadn't known how much Finney had liked y/n until a few weeks ago when he started talking about her a lot. It confused Gwen because the two only really talked between class periods, maybe Finn was just too shy and flustered to talk to the girl.

"Are you alright Finney?" Gwen asked as she caught up to her brother. "Yeah I'm fine. Why wouldn't I?" He said. "You know with y/n" she said quietly, "I'm fine Gwen don't worry about me"

"But finne-"

"I'm FINE" Finney replied as he sped up his walking. Gwen sighed as she followed after her brother towards school. She knew her brother hadn't been okay, his friend had gone missing. A friend he just happened to really liked.

"Finney wait up!"

-

Bruce was in a similar situation as Finney. Grief over took his life, his thoughts were about y/n and nothing else. He didn't know if she had died but he knew it was very likely that she had. He tried his best to keep his spirits up, he really did. He put up missing posters, and looked everywhere with his mother and father. No one had seen her. His parents tried to help him, he was starting to become depressed, and anxiety ridden.

"Bruce hun you've gotta go" Mrs. Yamada said as she sat down next to her half asleep son. "I don't want to" Bruce mumbled into his pillow. "I know it's hard for you honey but you have to, we can go out...and look some more after school if you want." She offered. Bruce nodded and turned around, "can you maybe pick me up early?" Normally his mom wouldn't. The yamadas really prioritized education, like every family but she knew what her son was going through so she allowed it. "Yeah, that's fine..just hurry up and get ready you sister doesn't want to be late" Bruce nodded and muttered "mhm" into the pillow. Mrs yamada rubbed Bruce's arm lightly before getting up and leaving the room. Once Bruce had heard the door close he groaned and sat up. He stood up and walked over to his dresser. He stared into the mirror that sat over the dresser. He had large dark circles and tear stained cheeks. His normally smoothed out and styled hair was a mess. He looked miserable because he was. He was miserable without his best friend. He didn't think he'd ever be able to live without y/n. If they ever found out that y/n died bruce had told himself he'd kill himself. He knew y/n would disagree with his decision, y/n would tell him he was stupid and she'd be fine, she be fine without him. He be fine without her, that he needed to stay, for Amy, for his mom and dad. But he didn't think he could, he wouldn't be fine without her.

he wouldn't he just wouldn't.

How could he even be able to, he'd never even spent more than a couple days without y/n. What would he do without her, who would he go to the movies with, or the park. who would sit and watch his baseball games when no one else could make it. Who would throw the ball so he could practice his batting. Who would be there for him.

Yeah he had other friends, but none of them were like y/n. None of them. They were all popular and cared more their popularity than anything else. But y/n she was just her, and that was enough for him. She didn't have to pretend to like his stupid friends, or pretend to tolerate his sister. She just had to be her stubborn beautiful self and he'd always love her. Platonically of course, but Bruce had even starting to rethink the platonic part about their relationship until y/n had go missing.

Bruce groaned as he buried his face into his hands. Why did he have to be going through this, why did she have to go missing. Why her, why not him! Why couldn't the grabber take him instead of her. Bruce groaned as tears rolled down his cheeks, before he wiped them. He took a deep breath in before exhaling shakily. He then slowly dragged open his top drawer and picked out something to wear.

Once Bruce and Amy were ready and down stairs their mother drove them to school. Most parents weren't happy to add another thing to the list of things they had to do before work, but it was better than your child going missing right?

Bruce sat in the front his cheek pressed against the glass. The glass cold against his cheek. It was early October so it was just starting to get cold. "Did you bring those missing posters?" Mrs yamada asked Bruce. He nodded his cheek dragging against the glass. It seemed like the yamadas cared more about finding y/n than the shaws. Max cared yeah but he was drowning himself in endless heaps of coke and vodka. Dawn cared too, she stayed with max and Albert for the week, she put up missing posters from time to time, and helped look, but she had a job, her husband and 2 year old up and Durango as well. while albert didn't care, at all. The yamadas were constantly involved in the search for y/n, as well as constantly putting up missing posters, when a certain somebody took them down.

"I'll pick you up at 12:30."

"What?!" Amy shrieked from the back seat, "you're picking him up early?!" She griped. "The police are conducting another search bruce is going to help" Mrs yamada replied softly. Amy huffed "I wanna help, y/n was my friend too!" Amy didn't understand she was just too young to help. "She’s my best friend, and You're not old enough" Bruce muttered back in response. "I'm 11" Amy muttered before dropping it.

Mrs yamada pulled up to the schools drop off without anymore bickering from her children. "I'll see you two later, I love you!" Mrs yamada called out as both children got out of the car. "Love you!" Amy replied as she sprinted towards the front door.

Bruce walked slowly up to the door, "hey bro!" One of Bruce's baseball friends Ryan said as he walked up next to bruce. "Hey" bruce said quietly, "you're finally back! We've missed you!" Bruce nodded but continued walking towards the door. "How've you been?" Bruce shrugged "fine...I guess" Ryan nodded. "How can we get your spirits up huh? We want normal bruce back" Ryan said patting Bruce's back. "I don't kno-"

"Hey bruce! Bruce yamada!" Bruce quickly turned around to see Gwen blake standing near the end of the sidewalk. "I'll see you later ry" bruce muttered before walking towards the young girl. "What?" Bruce asked as he made it over to Gwen. "I think I know where y/n is" Bruce furrowed his eyebrows together "what?"

"I think I know the house y/n's in i just need to make sure it's right. Do you want to come with me?"

"What do you mean?" He asked his head cocked to the side. "I have dreams and sometimes they're real..now do you want to come or what?"

"Yes, yes of course" Bruce replied. Gwen rolled her eyes and said "okay then meet me at my house after school" before pushing past him and walking towards the school. Bruce sighed softly before turning back around and also walking back towards school.

-

The search had been a fail yet again. The police were already starting to think she was dead. They were looking for a body rather than a live person. Now bruce has begun to ride his bicycle through the light October rain towards the Blake's house. He didn't really believe Gwen about her dreams, but if this was going to helped them find her he was in.

He pulled up to the small house to see Gwen stood outside, with a yellow rain coat on, and her bike parked next to her. "You ready?" She asked, Bruce nodded as the girl dragged her bike over towards Bruce before hopping in. "What was the house number?" Bruce asked.

"7741 it's red with a tree in front"

Bruce had recognized that number and house description, but he didn't know where from. Bruce nodded and both kids began their hunt through the streets of their Denver suburb. They counted the house numbers out loud sometimes pointing out houses that were similar but all didn't have the number until one. One on cherry street across the street from the shaws house.

Both kids came to a slow stop in front of the house, "is that it?" Bruce asked Gwen as she stared at the house. Gwen nodded slowly, "yeah."

Bruce turned his head towards the house across the street, sat in the driveway was alberts black van. "Is that a black van?" Gwen asked, Bruce turned back towards the girl and nodded "yeah why? that's just her uncles."

"My dreams...I saw a black van."

"Bruce? What're you doing out in this rain?"

Bruce quickly snapped around to see a very wet Albert Shaw, it was as if he had been standing out here for hours. "I- we were just riding our bikes" Bruce whispered. "Ah" Albert muttered, "I- I um didn't see you at the search." Albert nodded and carded his fingers through his hair.

"It's just too depressing, you know. Miss her so much, I'd just go into another spiral if I did" Bruce's gut told him albert was lying. Just something, he didn't seem genuine at all, he had a tiny smirk on his lips. If you'd blink you'd miss it, but it was there. "Ye-yeah I know how you feel. Barely been able to get out of bed" Bruce chuckled akwardly.

"How bout you two come inside, I'll drive you guys home." Bruce shook his head, "we're alright, our parents would get pissed if we did you know with the missing children."

Albert rolled his eyes, "yeah but your mom knows me bruce, and I know you're father Gwendolyn I work with him. They wouldn't be mad."

Gwen shook her head "we're fine!" She said harshly. "Let's go Bruce" she said as she hopped back on her bike properly and started to peddle away. Bruce followed still looking back at Albert with his sneaky, sadistic grin on his face.

"It's him" Bruce whispered, "what?" Gwen asked her brows furrowing together. "The grabber, he's the grabber. I just know it."

-

Both kids showed back up at the blake house sopping wet. water dripped off of both of them and onto the kitchen tial as Gwen stood next to the telephone. Phone in hand as she listened to the phone ring. After a few rings the secretary at the police station picked up.

"Hello Denver police department, this is Barbara how may I help you?" The lady on the other end said in a stereotypical costumer service voice. "Um hi I just wanted to talk to detective wright or detective walker?" The lady on the other end sighed as Gwen fiddled with the cord. "I'm sorry ma'am but neither are here currently, and they aren't gonna be back till around 8 tomorrow morning" Gwen groaned "okay fine can you just tell them this is Gwendolyn blake and it's an emergency" before she slammed the phone back onto the receiver.

"What'd they say?" Bruce asked, from his seat at the dinning table. "They're not there we're gonna have to wait till the morning" Gwen sighed as she sat across from Bruce. Bruce groaned "we can't wait till the morning he could kill her in that time!" Bruce whispered.

"Bruce?"

Both Gwen and Bruce turned to face Finney who stood in the hallway. "What are you doing here?"

"We were just riding bikes Finn" Finney furrowed his eyebrows together, questioning why someone his age was hanging out with his 11 year old sister but decided to shrug and walk back towards his room. "So tomorrow come here first, we'll call and then go towards the house. K?"

-

"What do you even keep down there Al?" Dawn asked. Both Albert, and dawn sat at the dining table talking. It was about 8 o'clock at night, and the next day dawn had to go back home, so why not try and catch up with your ex brother-in-law. "Nothing..nothing that should interest you" Albert said as he took a sip of his beer. Dawn furrowed her eyebrows, "how are you doing, you know with y/n" albert asked changing the subject. "I don't...I guess I'm just kind of numb. Didn't think he'd let that happen to her" she whispered. "I know max can be a bit of a Jackass sometimes. I've been trying to get him quit and stuff but he just won't" Albert whispered back as he leaned back in his chair. Dawn nodded slowly, "if they find her, I'm thinking of going for full custody"

They weren't going to find her, Albert was sure of it. He was going to kill her, and they'd give up on the search. But he still had to pretend. "You-you'd still let her see me right?" Albert stuttered out. Dawn chuckled lightly "of course she adores you." Albert grinned "I'm her favorite uncle."

"You're her only uncle Al" she laughed.

"I still wanna know what you keep down there Al." Dawn pried "you don't" Al whispered. Dawn furrowed her eyebrows together "I'm going to bed" Albert quickly said before getting up and walking towards. Dawn furrowed her eyebrows together as her eyes followed albert down the hall. Albert had been acting rather strange and well suspicious during the time dawn had been here.

Once she heard alberts bedroom door close she stood up and slowly began to walk towards the stairwell. She stood at the top of the steps and gazed down at the large metal door at the bottom. She sighed before she started down the step. Once she was at the middle of the stairwell she fell a sharp pain in her back. She tried to turn around but she couldn't. "I really liked you dawn" she heard before the person behind her pushed her causing her to tumble down the stairs. She hissed as she landed on her back now seeing Albert above her. A knife in hand, and a mask covering his face. "But you're too nosy" he said as he began to stalk towards her. "Al-albert?" She stuttered out.

Albert chuckled as he kneeled down next to the whimpering woman. "I'm sorry" he whispered before raising the knife over his head "please don't do this al" dawn cried out before he plunged the knife down into her chest causing her to let out a loud scream. Albert was grateful max was out with his friends because she was being obnoxiously loud. "Shut the hell up she's gonna hear you" Albert whispered as he continued to drive the knife into her until she was no longer screaming, or moving. He groaned as he stood up discarding the knife onto the floor. The knife clattering as it hit the floor. "God dammit" he muttered as he looked down at his now blood soaked clothing.

He bent over and picked up dawns now lifeless body and walking back up the stairs. He lied her down onto the dinning table before walking out to his back yard to grab his rolling garbage can that he normally transported his dead victims from this house to the one he buried them in. He quickly stuffed the body into the can and cleaned all the blood off of him he could before dragging the can over to the other house.

He dug the key out of his pocket and unlocked the door before dragging the can inside and closing the door back. He opened the can back up and picked her body back up before quickly walking towards the basement. He hurriedly buried her before getting out of there. He couldn't risk being seen.

Y/N's pov

Vance and I sat on the mattress when we heard a loud thud outside the door. Vance was half asleep but he quickly jolted awake. "What was that?" Vance whispered. I shrugged "dunno" I secretly hoped it was someone to help us. I wasn't confident I was able to kill him. Then I heard it a shrill scream. Someone screaming bloody murder outside the door. If it was someone to help them they weren't going to help anymore. I flinched and scooter closer towards Vance. It was a woman I could tell from the high pitched screams

I buried my head into Vance's shoulder trying to block out the noise. Then suddenly it stopped. Silence. For about 20 minutes before we heard the metal door open.

"Who was screaming?" I asked as Albert stepped into the room. His hair damp so he had obviously tooken a shower. "What screaming?" He asked I could hear the smirk through his voice. "I heard someone screaming. Who was it?" Albert began to walk towards Vance and I. He kneeled down "none of your business" he whispered in my ear. His breath was hot against my ear dispite his mask blocking some of his mouth.

Vance tensed up next to me. I stuttered as albert pulled away from me. "Did you kill them?" I whispered hesitantly. He chuckled but didn't answer the question, he just brought his hand up to my cheek. He caressed my cheek softly with he thumb before whispering "you're so pretty when you're scared" I screwed my eyes shut trying to throw away the nausea and unconsciousness I felt. "Are you gonna kill us?" I asked impulsively. He laughed again. "You?maybe. him? Definitely."

[just-call-mefr1es]

using my big brain skills, i will now use my band-o-meter to guess what instrument the basement boys™️ +others would play💥 i am totally a professional, expert at vibes n shit😎 each word i say is canon /j

Griffin

ngl, i can see him in the clarinets section. definitely a woodwind, no arguments on that. hes a lil squeaky (WHEN PLAYING YALL) but pretty good overall. probs sits at the end of the row. memorized all of the fingerings and can switch between them pretty well. THE BEST at fast paced pieces, will spontaneously combust during slow ones (honestly same)

Billy

i feel like he would play tuba or euphonium, leaning more on euphonium. at first, i thought he seemed more like an art kid, but now that i have the mental image of him playing euphonium, i change my mind. hes pretty good, part of an endangered species though. 💯💯 has complained about his instrument being too heavy, but enjoys just resting against ghe case whenever he brings it around.

Vance

Percussion. I don’t need to elaborate.

Bruce

first of all, definitely in the woodwinds (again lmao). i was thinking either a bass clarinet, oboe or a saxophone? if saxophone, definitely an alto. although, i am thinking more oboe/bass clarinet….. yk, knowing bruce, he probably plays all of em, or maybe im just lazy. we’ll go with alto sax. vance has totally made a ‘saxy’ joke about it (projecting cause my wife does that with himself)

Robin

I think he’d be a trumpet. yeah, he would. he loves that thing. he probably has blasted it on accident though so r.i.p woodwinds in the row infront💔 he probably thinks that he can hit high notes easily, so he tries to on the first try and fucking dies. hit or miss with fast pieces, he likes them but also hates them. has asked finney how to subdivide because he zoned out

Finney

same issue with bruce, but with clarinet and saxophlne (no hobo). then i thought about it and went, ‘yeah, he’d be an oboe’. at first, i was thinking of making bruce play the oboe and finney the sax, butttt i like this better ngl. part of an endangered species, only two other hobo players with finn🙏 god at sightreading

Gwen

looking back im realizing how indecisive i am lmaoo. so our two options were clarinet n trumpet. took me a lot of back and forthing until i thought, ‘hell yeah she’d be a clarinet’ so here we are. carries the clarinets, and is probably louder than most trumpets. she’s 50/50 on sight reading. she could be awesome at it or terrible, depending the piece. complains about eighth notes.

Amy

let me project for a second and just- ‼️‼️flute‼️‼️ damn i love me flutie patooties. anygays, she has more luck hitting high notes than robin (rip) but flutes are built like that, but she can hit them without trying. she shifts 294749103 times in her seat because flute can get uncomfortable (projecting some more). sits next to gwen and they compare what each of their pieces are constructed 💗 (i do that with my friends too lmao)

[staggersz]

From least to most jealous, how would you rank the couples? In general I mean

IIIII LOVE THIS QUESTION HABAKEHSHAHWHAAAAAAAAAAA

Right off the bat Griffin and Billy are the least jealous. They only got their little crush(almost a squish??) on each other. Ace4Ace. DemiAro4DemiAro. They’ve also got attachment issues so they ain’t leaving each other 😭

I think Finney wouldn’t be a jealous person. He knows Robin gets jealous and Robin is always around him, so that solidifies loyalty. Robin’s also had a huge crush on Finney forever so Finney knows he never had his eye on anyone else !!

I don’t think Amy would be a very jealous person. Gwen herself is very defensive of her boundaries and she isn’t the type to flirt with other girls. LESBIANS WIN YALL‼️‼️

Gwen is next but there’s like a huge jump between her and Amy. When they weren’t dating yet, Gwen was always jealous that boys would talk to Amy and flirt with her. She thought those boys were always weird and gross and that she could treat Amy a THOUSAND times better (which she does!!)

Robin is so fuckin jealous that he gets DEPRESSED like it’s that deep. Whenever Finney would talk about Donna or hang around her Robin just got jealous but not in an angry way just in a “she’s so much better than me” way. When Robin and Finney start dating, Robin gets jealous when girls flirt with Finney since he’s a bit more popular because of his looks but Finney is introverted so he’s always hanging around Robin and never leaving his side 😭

Vance and Bruce are the absolute WORST with jealousy. Whenever one of them is jealous, everybody in the room knows it. They don’t want to admit it but their jealousy is so prominent. When Bruce gets jealous, he just wraps an arm around Vance and just hangs around but when Vance is jealous he is GLARING and if looks could kill that person would be six feet underground

[thewritersofdeceased]

I have two requests atm but i'm sad realizing I'm losing my seniors this year,

So here's TBP boys(and Gwen) with an an oldersibling!reader who's graduating with them in lower grades!

FINNEY BLAKE

Sobbed. like beyond sobbed "Only a couple more weeks with me." "Don't say that!" He tries so hard not to cry when you hug him goodbye When he shows up to your graduation, you know he and Gwen are crying their eyes out. maybe even your father- Teachers always use you and Finney as examples of wonderful students Calls you every night when you to go college You gave him an old plushie that he cherishes and protects for his life. Probably gave him an old jacket that he wears to school as well

GWENDOLYN BLAKE

Like Finney, she sobbed her eyes out "Only a couple weeks-" "DON'T FINISH THAT SENTENCE!" She begs you to stay if your trying to go to college Rambles about you to everyone when your gone Definitely cried to Finney when you left for college She tries convincing your dad to drive up and see you (Though it's reversed, you come down to see her)

BRUCE YAMADA

He understands that you'll have to leave him "You know I gotta go, B." "I know." It doesn't mean he likes it You and him were popular. Even if you were a senior, and him a freshmen People ask about you to Bruce and Amy But neither of them answer He sends you letters or phone calls once he learns what dorm room you're in

AMY YAMADA

Like Bruce, she knows you won't be there forever "A couple more weeks, Amy."  "Don't remind me.. I'm not excited." Gwen comforts her whenever she cries and misses you Gets things to send to you(She makes Bruce send it) Whenever you come for Bruce's major league games, she gets so excited to see you!!

VANCE HOPPER

Vance acts like he doesn't care at first. "Couple more weeks, Vance." "Yeah, yeah. Whatever." But really, he does care. A lot. When you give him a ticket to graduation, he's confused. Before realizing that you're leaving him.  He gives you his vest. Just make sure to come visit and bring it back.

BILLY SHOWALTER

You two would do the school newspapers together! Though the papers kept speaking about the seniors leaving. "Y/N? Are you the one writing about graduation?" "I have to, Bills."  He knew it would happen, but poor boy didn't want it to. On the official "last day for seniors", he ran out of his class to go to you. Gave you the biggest hug ever and sobbed into your arms

GRIFFIN STAGG

Griffin didn't want you to go at all.

"PLEASE, Y/N! DON'T LEAVE ME!"

"I have to, Griff! It's not my choice!"

Cries, begs and sobs at your graduation

Poor boy doesn't want to be abandoned again

He's always waiting for you to come back

Like a dog does :( 

[cornwalltotheball]

Bruce and Amy trying to teach their friends how to use chopsticks.

Their success rate varies. Vance has taken to using four somehow.

[cylnders]

Gwen when Vance and Robin catch her SIDING WITHE THE ENEMY AND BETRAYING THEM LIKE NO OTHER (she kissed Amy on the cheek while they were looking)

Robin n Vance, the last survivors on earth, watching as the demons impersonating their family (Qwen & Finn) eat rotting human flesh with the enemies (Bruce & Amy) (they are eating dinner) (Robin n Vance sat in the lounge room across the dining room so they could stare and shit talk)

[bunny-lou]

Hey! I’ve been reading all your Black Phone contents and they are so awesome!

If you’re currently taking requests, may I ask if you have any HC’s for first dates or just date ideas between Finney/Robin or Vance/Bruce?

Hey, thank you so much for enjoying my stuff!!!

Finbin/Robinney/Rinney

Robin is the one to ask Finney out and while Robin wants to go see a scary movie at the drive ins, he is nervous and plans the whole date around what Finn would want to do

Of course they go to the planetarium, which is in the next town over, so Robin begs his uncle to let them borrow the truck

Of course his uncle lets him, he's gotta be a good wingman for his nephew

Robin wears his nicest bandana and graphic tee while he picks up Finney, who's wearing a polo shirt with a collar and Gwen tried to do his hair

They stop for gas and snacks, having a whole meal out of bags of chips and candy bars, but also the sandwiches Finney was smart enough to pack for them

They lay back in the planetarium and watch the show, Finney adding extra information about the planets and stars because he knows way more than the employees

Robin reaches for his hand in the dark and Finney squeezes his fingers with every new constellation lit up

Finney is upset by the limited information that's given during the planetarium exhibits. As they leave and drive back, it's beginning to get dark, so he makes Robin pull over into a field.

They lay on the hood of the car, Finn's jacket bunched up behind their heads, as Finn points up at the sky.

"So everyone thinks the Big Dipper is a constellation, but it's actually an asterism, but it's apart of the Ursa Major constellation, which is the third largest constellation and pictured on the Alaskan flag. Claudius Ptolemy was the first astronomer to write about it in..."

Robin loves Finn's voice, but would probably fall asleep if his heart wasn't racing from the two of them laying so close.

Finn is shy and nervous, so when Robin asks to kiss him under the stars, he stutters that he wants to wait until their second date

(Robin has already planned their second date at the drive ins, Friday the 13th Part III, fun enough for them both to enjoy, but scary enough for Finn to huddle into his side the whole time.)

Brance

They didn't really have a first date, but their routines have always been going out after Bruce's baseball games.

But like, after Bruce has his post-game meeting with his teammates, which Vance used to hang out for, but they're soooo boring and he can't.

Instead, Vance cheers in the field with Amy, hollering each time Bruce so much as takes a step.

But, he doesn't like to rush to Bruce after each game. There are too many people crowding the teams to congratulate them at the end.

So Vance sneaks away, like he always does, and heads to the arcade to wait for Bruce to talk to his teammates, which is also a nice break for Vance. It makes him uncomfortable to be in such an open spot with so much noise, sitting still for so long, all these strangers around him. Getting to play pinball in between is like his recharge period.

Bruce comes to find him a short while later, already changed out of his uniform, but still energized from his game.

Vance likes routines, so it's the same thing each week. They go for milkshakes across the street (strawberry for Bruce, peanut butter and chocolate for Vance)

The young waitresses there used to bat their eyes at Bruce, smile at him for too long, up until Vance got fed up and pulled him across the table to kiss him, spilling their milkshakes onto the floor.

No one flirts with Bruce in there anymore.

After, they browse the comic shop down the road. Bruce flips through their baseball cards while Vance picks up a new comic (and sometimes pays for it if he feels like it).

On nights where Mr. and Mrs. Yamada are gone, Vance stays for dinner. Amy is a great cook for the three of them. Bruce's parents... tolerate Vance, but he doesn't like all the people around. He's happy with Bruce and okay with Amy, but too much more stresses him out.

The three of them end the day by doing their homework together, though Bruce has to push for Amy and Vance to do it. After Amy has had Bruce proof read her English paper, she slips off to her room, giving them privacy.

Vance begrudgingly finishes his homework because they get to relax on the couch after, his head in Bruce's lap as the television drones on in the background.
