I sit on the side as the boys have a spitting contest, making gross ass noises with their throats. "Oh my god, that was terrible. I win!" Richie cheers for himself.

"You won?" Eddie widens his eyes. "Yeah!". "Did you see my loogie?" He points. "that went the furthest! Its by distance" Richie exclaims.

"Mass. Its always been mass" Eddie fights. "What the f- What is mass?!" Richie stutters over his words.

"Who cares how far it goes-" I cut him off, "No one! Now whos going first?" I walk up to them.

They all look at each other nervously. "We'll go!" Beverly calls out. We all look at her, and she takes off her dress.

"Sissies" She smiles as she runs and grabs my hand, jumping off the cliff. "What the fuck!" Richie yells.

I take a deep breath right before we hit the water. "Come on!" Me and Bev call to the guys. All of them soon jump into the water.

I get on Beverlys shoulders, and Richie gets on Bens. Richie manages to push me off into the water.

Me and Beverly watch as the others scream at each other. We slowly make eye contact, and I quickly look away again, but I can still feel her staring.

"Ah fuck! Something just touched my foot!" Richie exclaims, freaking out. Bill goes underwater, then comes back up, "Its a turtle".

"Wow, you really are a sissy" I push him, making him push me back.

..

I lay beside Beverly as we sunbathe together. I honestly don't know how she convinced me to do this since I've never been the type to just lay still for that long.

I feel the guys looking at us, and Beverly turns her head to look at them, they all act like they weren't looking.

Richie looks through Bens backpack, "News flash, Ben. Schools out for summa!". "Oh that? Thats not school stuff".

He pulls out a postcard, "Who sent you this?". Bens eyes widen, "No one." He snatches the card away from Richie, putting it back in his bag.

Richie pulls out a folder and opens it, "Whats with the history project?". "Oh... When I first moved here, I didn't have anyone to hang out with, so I just started spending time in the library" Ben states.

"You went to the library? On purpose?" Richie asks. I roll my eyes as I get up to sit on the rocks. "Oh, I wanna see" Beverly gets up, sitting beside me.

"Y-Your hair.." Bill calls out. I look at her, just now noticing how she cut her hair. "Your hair is beautiful, Beverly" I compliment her.

She smiles slightly, "Oh, thanks". "Why is it all murders and missing kids?" Richie questions, flipping through the folder.

"Derry's not like any town i've been in before. They did a study once, and it turns out people die or disappear six times the national average." Ben explains.

Beverly furrows her eyebrows, "You read that?". Ben nods, "And that's just grown ups. Kids are worse, way worse. I've got more stuff if you wanna see it.".

..

We all walk into Bens room. I look around, noticing all of the true crime pictures on his walls. "Woah, woah, woah. Wow" Richie exclaims as he walks in the room.

"Cool, huh?" Ben smiles. Richie shakes his head, "No. No, nothing cool. Theres nothing cool". I snort, trying to hold back laughter.

"Whats that?' Stan points. "Thats the charter for Derry Township" Ben states. I tap Richie, "Nerd alert".
