Pure love - Billverly

Chapter 13

After a few days the losers were back in the sewers.
"It's gross...we might get real sick this time and I am not going back in that hospital. Oh no, grey water." Eddie panicked
"Shut up, Eds. I will make it up to you later, but I really want to explore the sewers." Richie responded giving him a kiss on his cheek.
Beverly took her flashlight and grabbed Bill's hand and they lead the group inside the sewers.
"There is it. The place we've defeated Pennywise 7 years ago. There's no one floating. It's weird." said Bill
"Maybe he's hungry and went into searching for children." said Richie
"Just shut up, Richie" said Stan.
"Guys, take a look here." said Mike. The others turned around and saw bodies of children floating in the grey water. At the sight of them, Eddie threw up.
"Eds, it's looking better than inside your mom." Richie laughed.
"They seem to be seven children."Beverly remarked.
"Let's keep searching." said Ben
Ben got closer to Beverly and grabbed her hand squeezing it.
"Ben, I am in a relationship with Bill. I can't, sorry." she said and took her hand
Ben looked down wondering how Bill and Beverly got together so quick when they said they went in abusive relationships.
They climbed on the rope they left behind seven years ago and they found themselves in the Well house.
"This place is giving me bad flashbacks." said Beverly.
"Guys, let's get out." said Ben. "This place is freaking me out." he continued.
"Not now, Ben" said Richie." I've missed this place. It's cool."
"Says the one who ran and screamed from it." replied Stan
"At least I entered, you literally cried when you first saw it." Hissed Richie
"Can you please shut up ?" Shouted Bill annoyed.
The others went silent and they continued their mission in the Well House."
A known laughter was heard. The clown emerges from the kitchen and runs to Beverly. Bill takes a bottle and smashes in the clowns head.

"Thanks,  Billy" said Beverly and kissed him
"No problem" he replied.
"We are older, aren't we?! Silly little losers coming to rescue. You are all going to die this time. Mark my word." said Pennywise
"Mark this" Richie took a arrow and stabbed Pennywise. The clown left the scene in pain.
"What a wimp." laughed Mike.
" You guys weren't joking. That was terrifying." Samatha stated.
"Let's clean ourselves at the Quarry." Suggested Richie
"For the last time, it's January. We could die  or worse." Explained Eddie
"Eddie, I was joking, calm down" laughed Richie
The losers went at Bill's house and cleaned themselves.
Beverly was in Bill's room getting dressed when Bill came in.
"Bill, what the-" she exclaimed
"Sorry, sorry, I was looking for a towel." Bill said.
"Here" she handed him a towel. She leaned to him for a kiss and he kissed her back. 
"I love you, Billy."she exclaimed
"I love you too." he grabbed her and entered his room kissing her.
Memories of her abusive ex-boyfriend came in her mind. He was beating her and he raped her when she was only 17. She never told Bill about it, but now was the moment. The thought of him being near her gives her shivers down her spine. Her hands are shaking and her eyes are wide open in shock. Beverly's legs felt like jelly. Bill caught her before she fell and places her on his bed.
"Bev, here are some clothes. Get dressed and sleep a little. I will make you a hot chocolate to help you get warm ." Bill said
Beverly nodded and Bill exit his room. Her tears were sliding down her rosy cheeks. How could he do that to her? She wants to tell Bill about her ex, but what if he won't accept her if he finds out what she really is.
Bill entered the room and looked at Beverly. He got on bed and pulled her closer to his chest.
She let all of her tears went down.
"Are you better now?" he asked
"Mhm" she mumbled through hiccups. She couldn't use her voice to form a single word in fear that she will have a meltdown again.
"Bev, it's okay. You can tell me everything. I won't judge you. I am sorry if something I did hurt you." Bill said
"It's not you" she said, her voice on the verge of cracking again. " It's my abusive ex. He raped me and beat me whenever he had the chance. I am sorry to disappoint you, Bill." she cried
" You can't disappoint me. I wish I had known sooner about it, but I am not mad at you. Come here" she placed her head next to him.
Beverly felt her eyes heavy and closed them. Mike knocked on Bill's door and entered the room.
"How is Beverly feeling?" he asked
"She's sleeping. I feel stupid for not asking her about what happened, but I didn't want to push her. She said that her ex was abusive and I didn't ask for details." Bill replied softly
" She's though girl, she will be fine" stated Mike
"I know, that's what I love about her. She is stronger than everyone else and she didn't let the past traumas change her." Bill said
Mike left,  leaving both Bill and Beverly fell asleep in each other embrace.
"Guys, let's go home, the love birds fell asleep" said Mike
The other losers took their things and left the house.

At Stan's
Samantha walked to Stanley's room. He was covered in books and papers focused on his work. Downstairs his parents were having an argument.
" What's up, Stan?" she asked.
"I am doing a project for college." He responded
"What project?" she asked curios
" The project Miss Tiffany asked us to do. It must be perfect." Stan replied.
"What are you writing about?"
"Criminal law" replied Stan still focused on his work.
" Do you want help?" she asked.
"You can help me if you want."
They worked together on Stanley's work. Samantha accidentally dropped her pen. Stanley and her both leaned down after it and they bumped in each other. They looked away blushing.
"Sorry, let's get back to work." Stan said
She took his hand in hers and got back to work.
"Why did you chose Law school, Stan?"
"Well, firstly, my parents want me to be a lawyer and I kinda like it, you?" Stan responded
"I've always dreamed about being a lawyer or a judge. I remember when I was little taking all of my plushies and put them in court for stealing the last cookie or watching tv past their bedtime." Samantha said.
" Your eyes are beautiful. They are glowing when you talk and you have this flame inside you when you talk about your passions and your memories." he leaned forward and kissed her cheek.
"What is your passion,Stanley?"
"Birds, observing birds, drawing them, studying about them. It's a hobby of mine."
"Cool" she replied looking in his eyes

"You were brave at the sewers and when we fought Pennywise. You didn't show any fear and I was shaking." Stan laughed
"To be honest, I was scared, but we were with your friends and that calmed me a little." she explained

They leaned forward for a kiss, but the door slammed open.
" I am so sorry Stan,Samantha. Beverly needs us she locked herself in my room and doesn't want to get out. Stan, you've been through this, please, help me"
Stan got up and headed to the door. There was his father waiting for him.

"No, Stanley Uris, you will be staying at home doing your damn project and this girl can go back to where she came from. I don't want you near her again. Until you are 21, I will be responsible for you and you will do as told." said his father.
" I need to help a friend, I will do my work when I am back." Argued Stan
Stan's father took Samantha by her hand and pushed her next to his son.
" Leave her out of this, dad. She didn't do anything." Stan hisses
"Make her leave the house, or I will make her" he replied
"I am so sorry, you shouldn't have come here in the first place." Stan said
"Stan,I" she was interrupted by Stan
"Leave and don't come back. This is my life and I can't have you to ruin it." He argued
"You didn't say that! If it wasn't for me, you would have died by your hands right now." Samantha yelled.
Stan opened his eyes wide open. He  couldn't believe she  said that.
" I didn't want you here in first place. Leave!" He yelled back and Samantha left.
"Stan, you can stay home." Bill was trying to say when Stan interrupted him.
"No, Bill, Beverly helped me when I felt bad now it's my turn to help her." said Stan
His face was red and tears were about to leave his eyes, but he remembered that he can cry over it when he gets home.

Beverly was crying in Bill's room. The panic took control over her and she wants to end it. Richie, Eddie, Ben and Mike were trying to get her to unlock the door.
"Bev, please, Bill is on his way here. We won't hurt you." said Mike
"Bev, please. I am here for you. Don't let those thoughts get you. I love you, we all do. Please, open the door." said Bill who just walked in.
They managed to unlock the door and found Beverly curled up in a corner of her room crying.
Stan and Bill got close to Beverly.
" We are not going to hurt you, Bev. It's normal how you feel. You want to leave this world and be free. Free of these killing thoughts and everything, but you deserve much more. You deserve to be with Bill and have a great life together. You love each other. Please, don't leave Bill alone. He is nothing without you." Stan said
Bev nodded and went to Bill and hugged him.
"Thank you" said Bill
They all formed a group hug. Beverly was tired and went to sleep.
The others walked home.

At Stan
Stan was standing at his desk. He wants to smash his head over the desk for how stupid he was when he caught feelings for Samantha knowing well his parents wouldn't allow it. He dragged her in his miserable life hoping that she will be his life saviour and now he pushed her from his life.
He bumped his head on the desk. 
"Stanley, what happened?" his mother asked.
"Nothing, I feel tired, that's all. I am almost done by the way. I must've fallen asleep and bumped my head."
He placed his books on his table and went to bed crying over what happened during the day.
