The clown

1

The bell rings signaling all the kids in class to get up and rush out. It's the last day of school. I wonder the hallway and try to not get into the crowd of all the kids excited to leave school.

After a while of the hall clearing out I step outside to see my friends, Richie,bill,Eddie and Stanley all standing there.

I walk over and hear Richie telling Stanley to try tickling his pickle for the first time. Uh please tell me that has a different meaning that what I'm thinking I say. Oh shit didn't see you there, sorry Richie says. Anyways I start my training Richie says. Training for what I reply. For street fighter he says. Is that how you wanna spend your summer? Inside of an arcade? Eddie asks. Beats spending it inside of your mother Richie says back.

Aw gross I say. Guys look, Betty rempsons mom eddie says. We all turn and see her standing with police officers looking toward the school. Is she really expecting to see her come out? Stanley says. I don't know Eddie says. Do you really think they'll find her Stanley says. Sure, in a ditch. All decomposed, covered in worms and maggots, smelling like Eddie's moms underwear Richie says. Shut up, that's disgusting Eddie says.

She's not dead, she's m-m-m-missing bill stutters out. Sorry bill, she's missing Richie says correcting himself. Bill turns to leave as we follow but I turn and see Henry bowers push Richie and knocking stanley down. Nice Frisbee Patrick says to Stanley. Give it back Stanley says.

Patrick throws it and Henry and his stupid little friends leave. You're a dick bowers I yell. Mmmm you wish you had it he says. You s-s-suck bowers bill says. Shut up bill Eddie says. Did you s-s-say something b-b-bill Henry says mocking bill. You got a free ride this year' cause of your little brother but rides over bowers says while stepping closer to bill. This Summer is gonna be a hurt train for you and your faggot friends he says while licking his hand and placing it on bills face. Then proceeding to walk away with his friend.

I wish he'd go missing Richie says. He's probably the one doing it eddie adds on.We all head our ways home while saying a bye for now.

After a while I told my mom I was gonna go over to Stanley's house for the day and I'd be back later. She hesitated but then agreed. Just be safe please she says. I will bye ma love you I say leaving.

*Skip*
(Eddie's house)

Take everything but the delicious deals guys. Eddie says as Richie grabs snacks from Eddie's pantry. First you say the barrens now you are saying the sewers I say to bill. Yeah what if we get caught Eddie adds on. It's for public works and we're the public aren't we? Bill says. Hey Eddie are these your birth control pills Richie says while opening another cabinet. Yeah I'm saving them for your sister, those are private stuff Eddie says.

I giggle at Eddie's joke then we all head to the front door. Eddie bear, where are you all headed off to in such a rush? His mom questions. Um just my back yard ms. K, I got a new- bill says. He got a new croquet set, Jeez spit it out b-b-bill Richie says mocking bills stutter. Ok. And sweetie don't go rolling around in the grass especially if it's just been cut, you know how bad your allergies can get she says. Yes mom, let's go Eddie says but was interrupted by his mom. Aren't you forgetting something? She says.

Eddie walks over and gives her a kiss on the cheek. Do you want one from me too ms. K? Richie says but I push him out side shhhh I say. I was kidding he says. Sorry mommy Eddie says then closes the door.

He kisses his mommy still Richie says. Well I think it's cute that he does that I see smiling at Eddie. He blushes then we all get on our bikes and start going to the sewers.

We make it and Stanley automatically starts pointing out where there's poison ivy. Where? Where's the poison ivy? Eddie says panicked. No where, not every fucking plant is poison ivy Stanley Richie says. We see this tunnel and bill walks in as well as Richie. Um I don't think I wanna go in there I say.

Do you use the same bathroom as your mother? Richie asks Eddie. Some times yeah? Eddie says. Then you probably have crabs Richie says. That's so not funny Eddie says. Oh gosh I'm so gonna regret this I say. Regret wha- Stanley says as I go inside the tunnel. Aren't you guys coming in I say to Eddie and Stanley. Nope that's grey water Eddie says. What the hell is grey water Richie says. It's basically piss and shit, so I'm just telling you Eddie reply's.

Yeah it smells like ass in here I say. Richie gets a stick and smells it. Ew gross I say. It doesn't smell like caca to me señor Richie says. Ok I can smell that from here eddie says. It's probably just your breath wafting back into your face Richie says. He then grabs a pair of pants that were in there and throws it at Eddie as Eddie screams.

They all start arguing and I look over at bill and see him holding a shoe. Guys he yells. They all go quiet and bill comes over. Who's sneaker is it Eddie says. It's Betty rimpsoms Richie says. I don't like this I say start to get scared. What if she's still here Stanley says.

Come on guys Richie says. Hell no I say. What are you scared of grey water now Richie says. I was just standing in it you idiot, and no I-I don't like this I'm starting to get freaked out I say. Bill? Eddie says. If I w-were Betty r-r-repsom I would w-want us to f-f-f-find me bill says. What if I don't wanna find them? I mean no offense bill but I don't wanna end up like g- I don't wanna go missing either Eddie says. Me too he has a point Stanley adds on.

It's summer we're supposed to be having fun. This isn't fun Stanley says. And then we hear a large splash from behind us. We all gasp and turn to see the new kid was in it and breathing hard. Holy shit what happened to you Richie says coming out of the tunnel. Let's go help him I say going towards him and the rest following me.

Bowers and his friends are after me the new kid Ben says. Let's go then Stanley says as we get on our bikes and help the new kid. He's bleeding let's go to the store to by him bandages I say. We arrive in a alley and we all get off. Richie, may stay here with Ben. W-what it was my idea to get stuff for him I say in disbelief. Are you saying you don't wanna hang with me? I'm hurt Richie says dramatically. Oh shut it I say plopping down on the ground. Glad I got to meet you before you died Richie says to Ben. Richie! I say. He goes quiet and just stands there. Hey don't worry we'll help you I say to Ben who just nods.

Shortly they all come running back with a lot of stuff. Anyone know how to cover this up bill says. I got it me and Eddie say at the same time. Oh you can do it I say to Eddie he nods and then starts to clean and bandage the wound.

Wow that looks like that hurts someone says. I look up to see Beverley marsh. Everyone calls her a slut and says she slept either ever guy in the school. I don't believe that she seems like a sweetheart. Are you sure y'all have all the right stuff for that she says. Yeah I told them what to get and I actually know how to bandage wounds I say. Then why aren't you doing it she says. Eddie wanted to do it I say.

You know w-we'll take care of him bill says. Sure maybe I'll see you around she says to bill then walks away. Nice bringing up bowers in front of her bill says. Yeah dude you heard what she did Eddie says. Whatd she do? Ben asks. More like who she did, from what I heard the list is longer than my wang Richie says. Well that's not saying much stanley says. I burst out laughing and try to hold it in. Why would you say that? There's girls here you know Richie says.

Those are just rumors about her bill says. Anyways, bill had her back in the 3rd grade. They kissed in the school play. The reviews say you can't fake that sort of passion Richie says.

Yeah yeah I'm gonna go home I say. What? You don't wanna go swimming with us? Bill says. And show you guys my body? No gross this is private I say while moving my hand around me. Your loss Richie says. I roll my eyes and head home. I also see Beverley so I went to her. Hi Bev my names may I say to her. Yea I know she says with a smile. So the guys are going swimming later, are you gonna go? I say. I might why? she says. Cause I wanna go but I don't wanna be the only girl there and I was kinda hoping we could be friends I say. Sure we can be friends and I'll go if you go she says. Ok well then I'll meet y'all there I say then leaving.
