It seems since Jennifer Crosley started dating Stan Uris, things started to go down the well. Literally.
From a clown in the middle of the street to her mother leaving, Jennifer tries to survive the summer of 1989 with her friends as they also try t...
Jennifer woked up at 11 am, sweaty and out of breath.
She stared to nothing trying to convince herself that everything was a dream and that she was ok, and that Stan was ok, and that everything will be ok.

After getting out of bed, shaking her thoughts away, at least for today.
She goes to change her clothes and prepare her bag before going out to eat.
Then she went to the quarry where her friends already were.
"Jenny, you came!" said Richie with a smile on his face.
"Wanna play loogie?" Eddie asked.
"We were going to play anyway, Eds"
"Shut up Richie"
They waited a few minutes before starting to undress to their undies, except for Jen, before walking close the edge of the cliff. The first spit is Richie's then Bill's, Stan's, Ben's and Eddie's last.
"Dude, that was so lame" Richie says "I win"
"What? Why? Mine was the disgustiest, I win"
"What? No, I win. Mine went the fartherdest"
"Its the mass what counts, its always been the mass"
"Guys!" Everyone looks at Bill "W-Who's fe-f-first?"
"I'll go" they hear behind them. The group turns around to find Beverly taking off her dress. "Sissies" Beverly smiles and runs to edge, jumping off once there.
"WHAT THE FUCK?!" Richie screams as we hear a splash "WE JUST GOT FOOLED BY A GIRL!"
Then the boys start jumping leaving Jennifer standing alone.
Bev looks up "Jen, are you coming!"
"Y-yeah, just gee-give me a sec!"
She takes a deep breathe and takes her shirt off them her shorts. She took a final look down at them.
"C'mon!"
"We have all day"
"Actually no, remember we have a curfew"
"Shut up Eddie"
"Just jump, I'll catch you!"
Stan's voice calms her, even though she knows he won't catch her. But, she feels like crying again so she better just go for it and.... jump.
Jennifer swims out to the surface.
"Jesus, what took you so long? Were you doing stuff at the sight of me shirtless?" Richie says.
"You're disguting" she laughs pushing him.
That was the beginning of a chicken fight and probably the most happier(and probably only time) they'll be during the summer of 1989.

The girls lay on the ground with a boombox to a side. The boys stare at them until Beverly turns her head a little and they look to any other place. Richie's end up on Ben's bag on a folder.
"Newsflash Benners, school's out for summer!" He says grabbing and looking through it. The girls come sit with them "Whats this, anyway?"
"Oh, so when I first moved to town I didn't have anyone to hung out with so I went to the library"
"You went to the library? On purpose?" Ben nodded.
"Derry's not like any town I've been in before" he stated "People go missing two times more than the national average, and thats with adults... kids are worse"
They stayed in silence for a bit. Stan nudges Jen's arm before grabbing her hand.
"I-I'm sorry about yesterday" she says.
Stan shakes his head no "I'm the one that should be sorry" he says before nuzzling his nose on her cheek and giving some kisses too. But that made her remember what happened after she went home.
"You guys need to stop! Beep beep! Beep-!" Eddie squeeled "BEEP!" He yells making everyone laugh.
Jennifer shruggs it off quickly and turns to Ben "Can you tell us more about this?"
He nodded "I have more in my house, if you guys wanna see"

The group of friends get dressed and ride to Ben's place, and once there, they go to his room.
Ben opens the door and they walk in. Newspapers are all over the walls, missing kids posters, old writings and papers. He tells his friends about Derry.
"...Still is amiright, boys?"
