Pure love - Billverly

Chapter 19

,,Bill was at a graduation ceremony. He didn't know whose is, but next to him was Beverly and their two year old boy who was in Beverly's arms.
"George Denbrough" said the principal. Bill realised that this was what Georgie's graduation day would have been if he wasn't dead. How could he be so selfish to forget about his brother death and live his life. "

He wakes up thinking it was just a dream. A dream that reminds him of his little Georgie, who died at the hands of that vicious clown.
Beverly entered the room and looked at Bill.
"Billy, what happened?" she asked
"Georgie, I forgot him..." cried Bill" How could I be so stupid to forget my brother?" he asked
"Bill...it's Pennywise's curse you know. We didn't know anything that happened until we came back here."
"Georgie's dead because of me! How could I forget? It's my fault because I lied to him and he got killed because he was alone."  cried Bill
Beverly opened her arms and embraced Bill. He placed his head on her shoulder and cried.
She was stroking his head and calmed him down.
"I love you" said Beverly softly
" Thank you for being here, Bev. I love you too." replied Bill
Beverly wiped his tears and gave him a short kiss on his cheek. Bill hugged her and they both left downstairs.

Ben and Mike were talking about their friends. They feel a little left out since they reunited.
"How do you feel about it,Mike? I feel forgotten. Like we aren't even there. There Bill and Beverly, Richie and Eddie and Stan and that girl."
"I am happy that they are happy, but they should talk to us too, we are there too."replied Mike sadly
"I used to love them...you know...Bill and Stan..." continued Mike
"You had a crush on them?" asked Ben
"Yeah, you still like Beverly? After all these years?"
"Yeah, I have to get over it, because I am sure that she's happy with Bill." said Ben
They went downstairs and found the others in the kitchen eating.
Beverly  looked at Bill and noticed that something was wrong with him. She gives him a strange look.
They ate their breakfast in an unusual silence.
Richie and Eddie weren't even looking at each other while Mike and Ben talked about architecture.
"Richie, Eddie....are you okay?" asked Bill"You are so quiet. Did something happened?"
"We had an argument, that's all." replied Eddie
"You always have arguments...that's not a reason for you to not talk to each other." replied Beverly concerned
"We broke up, okay?!" stormed off Richie
Eddie put his face on the table and started to cry.
"How?" asked Stan
"I don't know why...Richie said that I am better off without him. I am not better off without him. I want him to be next to me everyday and to say kind words to me. I need him to tell me that he loves me." cried Eddie
They formed a group hug and comforted Eddie.
Bill broke the hug and went to search for Richie.
He found him in a arcade room in downtown.
" What do you want, Bill?" asked Richie
" I want to know why one of  my best friends is sad. We are supposed to stay together until we do something about IT." Bill replied
"Do what, Bill? Waiting for the people we love to die at his hands? Stanley has tried to kill himself multiple times because of IT, You and Beverly have nightmares every night, and I am scared that if we go down there something might happen to Eddie and I don't want to lose him, ok?"
"I understand how you feel, but we have to do this together, otherwise it will kill us all." said Bill
" I am scared for Eddie..."
"Look, I dragged you in this and I am sorry, but there's nothing I can do to prevent Eddie or any of you to not go there with me."
"Yeah....you're right. This town needs his "losers" to save his ass, right?" laughed Richie
"Yeah, make up with Eddie, he's a crying mess right now."
"That boy can't resist without me, can he?" said Richie as he was exiting the door along with Bill.
