Scream TV Series (Male Reader)

Episode 8: Ghosts

After I finished stitching myself up, I went to sleep and I woke up and learned of Will's death. My parents drove me to school. I met up with Noah and Audrey and we were talking when we see Emma come in.

"Emma?"

Emma: Hey.

Emma looks at us like Will did not just die yesterday.

Emma: What?

Noah: Um... You're here.

Emma: I am.

Audrey: We just didn't expect to see you back so soon. I stopped by to check on you.

Emma: Yeah. Thanks. My mom told me.

Noah: Emma, there are no words. I mean, sure there are, but I can't think of any to...

"We all know what you're going through."

Audrey: And we're here if you need us.

Emma shuts her locker.

Emma: It's okay. I'm okay. Really. I'll see you in class.

She walks off.

Audrey: She so not okay.

"You think."

We follow Emma until we see Will's locker filled with memories. The bell then rang and we went to class. We sat down but Brooke was missing. Mr. Brandson started to teach the class.

Mr. Branson: Intolerance, deception, hysteria. These are all central themes to The Crucible. See, hysteria causes...

I look and see Noah and Audrey talking when he is interrupted the two.

Mr. Branson: Noah, Audrey. Would either of you care to discuss the parallels between The Crucuble and McCarthyism?

Noah: Well, I'm no fan of McCarthy's blacklist, but sometimes the guy next door is worshiping the devil. Like Richard Ramirez.

Mr. Branson: Noah is right, of course. There are exceptions to the rule. However, the theme of trust and tolerance still resonates.

Eventually class ended and I was listening to Piper's broadcast.

Piper: The brutal murder of Will Belmont has forever changed the town of Lakewood. I came here as an outsider, and then Will Belmont saved my life. So now I'm part of the story. So, I can't even pretend to be an objective anymore. Now, I just want it to be over, and for the people that I've come to know to find peace again.

I take off my earbuds and I sit in my house on my looking at a picture of my grandpa. A tear goes down my face as I go to sleep. I woke in the woods. I look around but I no one is with me. I hear footsteps and I look and see my grandpa.

Billy: Y/N.

"Grandpa?"

Billy: It's always the closes people next to you that are the culprit. Betrayal shatters the trust you had in others and leaves you feeling like you're all on your own. When a person close to you violates your trust, it calls everything into question and provides no easy answers. You can recover from a lot of wrongs, but betrayal is hard to process.

I then see Ghostface emerge from behind him.

"Grandpa!"

Ghostface stabs him as the ground crumbled below me and I fall to the ground. I get up and look around and I see Ghostface standing there looking at me. I turned and see Will.

Will: You saved Riley... Why didn't you save me?

I turned and see Ghostface in front of me and he stabs me as I wake up in my house. I get a call from Noah and he told me to come to the school. When I arrived, I looked around for stuff to accuse Mr. Branson of being the killer.
