  Summary

  “Do you think about dying?” Will whispers, the dark of night making him brave and stupid.

  “Dying?” Mike whispers back and Will can hear the rustle of sheets as he turns his head. Will can feel eyes burn into the side of his face. Will nods even though he knows Mike can’t see him. The rest of the party are asleep in the Wheelers basement. It’s just them and the dark.
