Sequel to Ageless Love
It's been 27 years since the Losers confronted Pennywise. They're back now to defeat him for good. How will Ben and Emily, along with the rest of the Losers, handle this epic showdown. After all, the only thing we have to fear...
We all make it back to the Townhouse besides Bill, Mike, and Stanley. Richie and Eddie run right into the building and toward the stairs.
"Let's get our shit and get the fuck out of here..." My brother mutters as he runs up the stairs.
Eddie glances over his shoulder at us. "Did you leave your stuff here?"
"No, our things are in the car." Ben shakes his head.
I shake my head. I can't do this. I walk straight to the bar and grab a water bottle from the mini-fridge. Ben walks over and leans against the bar.
"Tell me." He whispers.
I open the bottle before raising my eyebrows.

"What?"
"Whatever it is that you're afraid to tell me right now. Em, back at the Jade, when you called Beverly's husband..." He pauses. "He told you he found her in the bathtub but I saw you and heard you. You said it first."
I take in a deep breath and sigh. Richie walks into the room cutting off my thoughts.
"Whatever you love birds are talking about, let's make it happen fast, alright? We have to go." He walks back and calls out toward the stairs. "Edwardo! Andele! Let's go!"
"There's something you're not telling us." Ben speaks up, his eyes never leaving me. "You knew how Bev died."
"Wait, what?" Richie walks back into the room.
I shake my head and bite my lip, not ready to tell them how...I knew Bev was dead. I gently push past my husband and my brother, walking out of the room.
"She knew how Bev was gonna die, is that what you just said?" Richie asks, confused.
"Babe!" Ben calls out causing me to stop in my tracks. "You can't just walk away from this. How did you know where she killed herself? Em? Talk to me, honey. Please. Let's talk like we always do. How did you know?"
I slowly turn around and look at Ben, our eyes connecting. "Because I saw it. I saw all of us die." I pause before sniffling. "My nightmares, Ben..."
"That...that's your nightmares?" I nod at his question. "Shit."
He walks forward and pulls me against his chest gently, holding me close to him. Eddie walks down the stairs with two large rolling suitcases in his hands.
"I just need to grab my toiletry bag then we can leave." He pauses as he sees all three of us. "What did I miss?"
Ben ushers all of us to the sitting room nearby and explains what just happened. I sit down on the small couch and stare into the distance slightly, not wanting to make eye contact with anyone.
"What do you mean you saw us all die?" Eddie starts to pace across the room.
"Yeah, because I got to be honest, sis, that's a fucked up thing to just drop on somebody." Richie leans against the bar in the room.
