Sharing Cigarettes (Beverly Marsh x fem!reader)

3

Rachel had barley woken up when she heard Beverly knocking on her door to go to the quarry. Uh Bev, you know how high we are right we're like fifteen feet above water if we fall on our stomachs or backs that would be- Rae we are going to be fine, did you even take a breath between each word?

I'm just saying and yes I took a breath between each word. Alright who's first? Beverly and Rachel could hear Bill ask the boys. We'll go. Sissys. Bev replied unbuttoning her dress, before grabbing Rachel by the hand who hadn't noticed ( she was staring at Bev) until they were at the ledge.

Bev no, absolutely not. Let me go! Rachel tried to remove her hand but Bev had a grip of steel on her. Halfway down Rachel firmly shut her eyes excepting her fate before..... Splash.

Rachel's body had hit the water when Bev finally let go of her hand. Holy shit. We just got stood up by not one but two girls. Richie yelled from the ledge. I told you it wasn't that bad. Bev told Rachel with a warm smile.

It wasn't but now my clothes are soaking. Bev looked at Rachel and realized she was still wearing her clothes. Oh. Oh shit sorry. Bev this is my most decent shirt, now I don't have to worry about ruining it if already ruined so you know what it's fine, because you did my a favour.

Once the boys had joined them it was honestly a amazing and fun blur for Rachel. Splash wars, chicken fights, swimming races, Eddie trying to drown Richie it was fun.

Beverly looked over at Rachel who had a large smile on her face, causing Bev to smile.

What the fuck just touched my foot! Richie yelled, Beverly watched Rachel's eyes widen. Nope, nope, nope, nope. Fuck this shit I'm out. Rachel began slowly swimming away from the the group. It was a turtle. Bill answered re-emerging from the water.

A snapping one? Rachel asked. N-no, why? I just want leave with all ten fingers and toes. Don't want any bloody limbs floating around in here. Bev hearing this swam over. You're not going to lose any limbs here. Not on my watch. She told Rachel protectively. Rachel submerged her head underwater to cool the heat about to rush to her head.

As self conscious as Rachel was she was sun bathing to Young MC's Bust a Move in her underwear ( clothes drying near by) with Bev, who asked her and she being her crush Rachel felt the need to say yes. Beverly noticing all the boys and Rachel's stares turned her head causing the boy's and Rachel's head to turn in the other direction. Bev let out a chuckle as Rachel fumbled with her glasses that had fallen off, she found Rachel's dorkyness to be undeniably cute.

News flash Ben schools out for summer. Richie joked grabbing Ben's bag. Oh that, that's not school stuff. Ben attempting to grab the bag back replied like he had something to hide.

Who sent you this? Rachel raised her eyebrows amused the post card Ben was writing to his secret lover was there ,now who is the lover was the question. Richie reaching into Ben's bag pulled out a dark green folder with lots of paper stuffed inside.

What's with the history project? Oh well, when I first moved here, I didn't have anyone I know so I started spending time on the library. You went to the library on purpose ? Richie confused looked at Stan and Rachel, his eyes asking am I or is Ben the psychopath?

Stan and Rachel not knowing the answer gave Richie a shrug before turning his attention to the folder.

Ooh I want to see. Bev curiosity in her voice said while being helped up by Rachel. The pair made their way to the rock, Rachel sitting next to Bev and Bev sitting next to Rachel, and Bill.

What's the black spot. Stan asked. The black spot was a nightclub burned down by a racist cult that.............. Eddie or Ben, maybe Richie explained. Rachel looking over at Bev realized she and Bill were in their own world. Now she and the rest of the losers had all of a sudden joined.

Y-your h-hair... Bill stuttered. Your hair is beautiful Beverly. Ben finished for Bill. All feelings aside Rachel felt pity for Bill, Ben took advantage of Bill's stutter. A awkward silence followed.

Richie held his hand out for Bill to pass the folder which he did. Why is it all murders and missing kids. Eddie, Rachel and Bill's family eyes went to the ground thinking of Bill's younger brother Georgie. Rachel missed the kid he was really one of the only people who talked to her willingly.

Derry's not like any town I've been in before. They did a study once, turns out people die or disappear six times the national average. Ben explained. Y-you read that. Bev intrigued asked. And that's just grown ups, kids are worse. Way, way worse. I've got more stuff if you wanna see it. The kid has more? How much time has he spent in the goddamn library?

Eddie shook his head mouthing a silent no. Rachel pointed at him in agreement head also shaking no.

But of course the vote was two to five and well you know the saying majority rules. So that's how Rachel was at Ben's house not knowing what to expect.

Ben's house was pretty decent for the most part.  Ben who had run upstairs for a strange reason could be heard running around his room for some reason.

Following the sound Rachel and the losers made their way to Ben's room that definitely wasn't average.

I heard he has a roller coaster and like a pet chimp and old guys fucking bones. Who the fuck gave you that idea Richard. Rachel and Richie, Eddie (agreeing with Richie) argued  stepping into Ben's room.

Look at the facts Rach he goes to the library for fun, he- Richie shut up for once he saw Ben's room. Woah, woah, woah! Eddie arms outstretched yelled trying not to let Richie fall.

Cool huh? Ben asked. No, no. Nothing cool. Richie gaped. Rachel moved back to Bev. Hi. Hey. Watch ya look'in for? If I find it promise not to laugh. Is it the new kids block thing? Yes how did you- I understand that reference Bev. Oh good now you can help me look.

Bev over here. Rachel nudged Bev slightly who was looking at the photos. Turning her attention to the door Bev pulled on the handle slightly....... revealing a large new kids on the block poster.

The door had quietly creaked when Bev opened it, but not quiet enough because Ben heard it. Ben's eyes squinted while mouthing the word no. Rachel's eyebrow went up, a little mouth open smirk.

Bev closing the door before the other boys could see turned back to Rachel. Don't tell anyone. She said giggling. I'd never. Bev eyebrows went up. Ok maybe one or two people but that's it, I swear. Don't you dare Rachel Thompson. Bev whisper yelled ruffling Rachel's messy dark brown hair.

After the pair left Ben's hand in hand walking down the same road from yesterday. Hey Bev? Hmm. Do you think Ben had skeletons in his closet? Um yeah, we all do. You do? We all have secrets Rachel. Oh, yeah that too, but I meant literal 100 year old, dug fresh from the grave bones.

Bev stopped to think for a second. What gave you that idea? Ben ran ahead to his room grabbed something and hid it in his closet, so he's hiding something. Ok, that is a interesting conspiracy theory but Derry is way to boring for thirteen year old murderers. Hey you never know, I mean what kind of kid stays in a library all day, even I have a better social life.

Social life? Since when? Bev joked. Since the last day of school and helping the younger grades. You know what, Dude I'd kill for a slushy right now. 

The place where they sold slushes was new, Rachel and Bev were taking a eternity to find. Rachel I'm telling you it's to the right. No the left. Hey, do you know where the slushy place is? Bev yelled at a random dude. Bev, leave the poor guy alone! Rachel whisper yelled at her. Bev rolled her eyes at this. Down the street to the right. The dude yelled back. God damn it!

Hey you wanna see a movie, I have money. Why not, and Rae. Hmm? I still won the bet it was to the right. That's how Rachel and Bev spent the rest of the day watching Dead Poets Society, drinking slushies to freezing their goddamn brains out.
