No-Clipping Into the Backrooms With My Friends

Last day of school. How long I've waited for this day to come. Nothing beats better than snacking and playing Minecraft at 3am in the morning when I get back home. I failed that semester exam for sure no doubt. For some reason, any assignments I finish are all A's but when it comes to tests, I usually fail and give up. Enough talking about school(gonna give me a migraine), can't wait to get back home.

"heyyy Chen, what are gonna do during the summer, now that school's over"

"not talking to you"

"okayyy, I see, anyways, have you heard of this new trending post that dropped?"

"what is it"

"ohh, it's about this picture that gives you nostalgic vibes, that makes you feel like you've been there before"

"lemme see it torres"

*proceeds to show me the picture*

I feel pretty unease while looking at it. What he mentioned before seems to be right, I feel like I've been there before.

"okay stop showing it to me"

"oki doki!"

The bus stops at my designation.

"laterr"

"later"

"have fun"

"huh?"

"nothing," as he smiles

As I'm making my way through the bus. A familiar voice attracts my attention.

"yo Chen, how you doing"

"fine expect the exams"

"real"

Zennah, he's a friend I met through our one mutual friend. We chat and text a lot during the days. He's very popular but you'll never see him at school. We always hangout on the weekends with that one friend and enjoy playing around. We get off the bus and Zennah asks me a question.

"by the way who were you talking to?"

"what do you mean, I was talking to torres, my seat buddy"

"uhhh you were sitting by yourself during this trip and Torres has been gone since December."

"what?"

I look back and don't see anyone. My bus stop is the last stop for anyone. Torres usually gets off at the first stop. Was I tripping? There's no way i'm going insane.

"I was right wasn't I?"

"Guess it was just my imagination, then"

"Then you wanna head to Ed's house today at 3?"

"Sure"

"Alrighty, peace then"

We part ways as we split off at the intersection. The Torres I saw back there was for sure real. He showed me his phone. Wait a minute, he doesn't even have a phone, that guy is broke! Okay that is really weird. Maybe I shouldn't question it too much, it's quite uneasy to think about it. While I'm on my home, everything does feel a little nostalgic, yet it shouldn't as it's in the present time. Whatever, today is a day to be happy, might as make this day the worth while. Suddenly I started to feel a little ill. It feels like I'm about to puke yet theres no sign if it. I'm almost home, I'll just take some Tylenol. *Few moments later* Tylenol is not helping. Seems like my parents are busy again. It's almost time to head out to Ed's house. Wait? It has been an hour already? My walk to my house usually takes up 5 minutes minimum. I wonder if the other are feeling weird currently...

      A minute passed and I'm at Ed's house, His house is diagonally behind my house so it wasn't time consuming to head there. *Knock knock*

"Sup bro, how you doing"

"ehhhh, terrible"

"we'll discuss that when we're inside"

We sit in the rug while Ed's mom makes us sandwiches. I'm thankful for his mom as she cares for all 3 of us as family which I take to heart. And her sandwiches are always fire.

"so why you are you feeling terrible?"

"while I was talking to Zennah, he told me no one know was sitting beside me, yet I was talking to someone but he wasn't there when I turned around"

"strange"

"then while I was heading back to home, I started to feel a little ill, I don't know, I might be going crazy"

"strangely enough I also feel a little ill with a sense of  nostalgia, expect for the schizo part for were talking about"

"really?! You're not pulling string on me right?"

"yeah, for real"

"maybe this wasn't a-"

Another knock at the door, we know who it is. The guy who always shows up late.

"yoooo"

"sup"

'sup'

"so any of you guys feel a little light in the head recently. By recently, I mean today"

"yeah we were just talking about it, right?"

'y-yeah'

"welll, let's forget about it and play some smash bros"

*while we're playing smash*

"it's really weird that we're talking to someone"

'yeah, he even showed me a picture of something'

"what was it?" Ed asked

'it was this picture of a empty office that gave a uneasy nostalgic feel to it'

"weird"

'I feel like this isn't a coincidence, we're all feeling uneasy'

"Don't trip too much, maybe we got the flu, It's not like some supernatural event, am I right"

'I guess'

"sandwiches are ready"

"you heard that guys, last one there gets 1 sandwich"

"ohhh, you're on"

"hey! wait up"

While running towards the kitchen, Zennah slips and it leads to a butterfly effect where we all trip as we're behind him.

"OH SHOOT"

But something unexpected happened. Our feets were phasing through the floor and it's pitch black while falling into some unknown void.
