Y/N's POV
When Jade and I run into Benny's we see Micky running around like a madman, crashing into multiple things. Jade runs up to him, grabbing his arms and putting her hands on his shoulders looking into his eyes "Micky what's wrong you look like a madman running like that." She asks him concerned as I slowly walk up to them and put one of my hands on his shoulders trying my best to comfort him. Micky quickly looks behind and has a confused look on his face "They were right there, I saw them." He muttered to us running his hand through his hair.

"Saw what Micky?" I ask him and he snaps his head towards me, his eyes tearing up "I.. I saw my aunt and uncle, they tried to take me back... I didn't want to go back.." Micky says quietly and Jade quickly brings him into a hug, rubbing his back comfortingly. I look at Jade and she mouths 'Abusive.' and I quietly gasp looking at Micky sympathetically, after Jade pulls away from the hug I immediately hug him tightly.

"I'm so sorry.." I whisper in his ear, he hugs me tighter and I can feel my shoulder getting wet with tears. I pull away from the hug and I frown when I see tears falling down his cheeks, I bring my hands up to his face wiping his tears away. "I don't know how he even saw them, I mean they've been dead for 5 years.." I hear Jade mutter to me.

I step away from Micky and Jade quickly replaces me continuing to comfort her friend "How did he see them... God I never want to see Micky like that ever again, I mean I kinda relate to him.. Sure my parents have hit me before but I bet it wasn't as bad as Micky's aunt and uncle." I tear up feeling sympathetic for my new friend, I sniffle and wipe away the tears and go back to hugging him along with Jade.

3rd Person POV
Marko and Paul laugh watching Micky run around Benny's like a madman Dwayne and David enter the store and laugh as well when they see the scene, both of them standing next to Mark and Paul. "Dude this is hilarious!" Marko says trying to keep his laughter quiet and Paul and David both nod in agreement but Dwayne decides to look into Micky's head as he was curious why Micky's biggest fear was two people.

"They can't be back, No, no, no they died 5 years ago.. They can't hurt you anymore.." Dwayne hears in Micky's head and he frowns. "Guys stop, that's enough.." Dwayne says quietly, Paul, Marko, and David snap their heads to stare at Dwayne "Why? Come on man you have to admit this is funny." Paul chuckles but Dwayne nods his head and replies "Because I read his mind idiot and the reason why he is scared of those two is because they hurt him." 

The laughter immediately stops and David looks at Dwayne "You serious?" David asks and Dwayne nods "Wrap it up boys." David tells Marko and Paul who are surprisingly quiet, both boys nod and Paul stops the illusion.

Micky is still running around probably still thinking the illusion is still there but it's not, the boys then see Y/N and Jade run into the store. Jade runs to Micky and grabs him, putting her hands on his shoulder we don't hear what he's saying. The boys do see Jade step away from Micky and Y/N quickly replace her hugging Micky tightly and the boys all quietly growl but calm down.

The boys then hear Y/N whisper something to Micky "I'm so sorry.." The boys all slightly smile at Y/N's kindness, then see Y/N pull away from the hug and wipe away Micky's tears "I feel kinda bad.." Paul says and Marko nods his head in agreement. The boys all are about to leave when Dwayne suddenly hears a thought and freezes "How did he see them... God I never want to see Micky like that ever again, I mean I kinda relate to him.. Sure my parents have hit me before but I bet it wasn't as bad as Micky's aunt and uncle."

Paul, Marko, and David look at Dwayne when they notice Dwayne wasn't following them and they saw that he had a face of sadness and anger. "Woah, dude are you okay?" Paul asks confused and Dwayne closes his eyes shaking his head. All the boys look at Dwayne concerned and worried "What's wrong, what happened?" Marko questions and Dwayne replies with a answer that made the boys very angry.
