Red balloons (Pennywise love fanfiction)

Chapter 1: Red Balloons

Being new to Derry, Maine has its pros and cons. A pro was being able to start a new life in Derry, but the con is that I didn't know anything about this stranger town. No friends or family.
One thing I did have here in Derry is my new apartment I'm renting. It's small but comforting. Enough to call home. Also lucky enough for me I got a job not far from my apartment complex at the local Derry Theater. Life was looking good for me.
Derry was a small town, a bike was enough to get me to where I needed to be. I didn't work tonight which gave me a chance to go grocery shopping. As I peddled through the eerily empty streets of Derry, I started noticing that there were many sewers. It gave me a weird feeling but I brushed it off.
I decided to take a short cut to what I read while cycling through as Neibolt St. This was the only part of town that gave me an uneasy feeling. The feeling was so overwhelming I didn't see the huge rock I was peddling towards to. The bike jerked from my grip and I fell onto the hard concrete below me. Scraping my knee.

"Shit!" I said while wincing in pain.

"Geez Evie!, you're so clumsy!" I whisper shouted as I picked myself up, limping from the mild pain on my knee.

I stand as I look for my bike which was weirdly enough in front of an old abandoned house. The place alone was giving off negative energy. I could feel the hair on the back of my neck stand up.
I limp my way back to my bike and pick it up. I get on my bike and slowly peddle away when I hear a noise coming from the Neibolt house, I turned my head towards the noise and see the door on the Neibolt house completely open. I start to peddle faster as I start to grow uneasy. As I peddle away something in me told me to look back. As I look back at the house I could see a single red balloon floating at the entrance of the Neibolt house.
I peddle away faster trying to ignore the pain from my knee. I tried to forget about what just happened by telling myself the things I needed to get when I get to the store.

"Ok evie, you need eggs, milk, cereal, fruit, and some chocolate to treat yourself when you get home" I said quietly to myself.

Finally arriving to the local grocery store I get off my bike and lock it up next to a nearby tree. I look down at my knee and see piecing of rocks and dirt on my wound.

"I need to clean this baby up" I say as I walked into the store. I walked directly to the beverage aisle and pick up a water bottle.

"Cold" I say quietly making my way to the aisle where they had medicine and band-aids.

I stand in the middle of the aisle looking for the band-aids. My eyes lock into them as I grabbed the first ones I saw. I walked towards the cashier and purchased my main needs.

"$2.75" she says with a slight smile.

"Here you go" I said handing her the money.

Walking out the store, I go sit next to my bike and open the water bottle. I slowly start to pour the cold water onto my knee, my whole leg twitches from the cold impact.

"There you go" I say as slowly place the band-aid on freshly cleaned wound.

I get up to go back to the store when out of my peripheral vision I see something red in mid air. I turn around to see the same red balloon strapped on my bike handle. I furrow my eyebrows and tilted my head slightly in confusion as that balloon wasn't there a second ago.

"Someone must've placed it there just now". My head raced with thoughts and my heart pounded as the thought of someone following me became believable.

I could hear deep chuckling coming from behind the tree and quickly turn and run into the store from fear.

"Alright, just buy what you need to buy and go home!" I said to myself out loud.

I quickly gathered all the things I needed,(especially the chocolate) paid, and exited the store.
Walking towards my bike I noticed the red balloon was gone. I took this as a sign to hurry on home. I quickly strapped the bags to my bike handles and peddled as fast as I could taking the long way home this time.

Relieved as I saw my apartment complex I slowed down my peddling. My legs were growing tired so I decided to walk my bike home, I was basically there already.
Finally inside the first floor of my apartment complex I take the elevator to the fourth floor, where I stayed. Inside the elevator I take out my phone and check the time. ~ 6:30~ it read.

"Well at least there's time to catch my favorite show" I say trying to lighten myself up.

The elevator dings and opens and I step out with my bike and groceries. I walk down the hall and look towards my apartment door. My eyes widen and my mouth opens slightly in disbelief and fear.
There in front on my door, floating in mid air. A single red balloon.
