"Just suck the wound," Richie provoked, pressuring Eddie. 

"I need to focus right now!" Eddie snapped, bandaging up Ben's wound. 

"You need to focus?" Richie nagged. Elena rolled her eyes, knowing this wasn't going to end well.

"Yeah, can anyone get me something?" He questioned, trying his best not to hurt Ben.

"Jesus what do you need?" Richie quizzed. 

"Get me my bifocals," Eddie commanded. "I hid them in my second fanny pack,".

"Why do you have two fanny packs?" Elena asked, tempted to laugh but she held it in.

"Yeah," Stan agreed, also confused to why his friend carried two fanny packs around with him.

"I need to focus right now," Eddie repeated. "And it's a long story-"

"Okay, that's a story for another day," Elena quickly said. She was not in the mood to hear a story about how Eddie ended up having a second fanny pack.

"Oh my God, he's bleeding!" Stan exclaimed, pointing to Ben's stomach which was now gushing with blood. "Oh my God!".

"I can see that," Eddie tried to stay calm.

"Eddie, did you do it right?" Elena questioned, furrowing her eyebrows.

"I told you, you have to suck the wound before you apply the bandage!" Richie groaned. "This is 101!".

"You don't know what you're talking about," Eddie flinched as he fixed Ben up as best he could.

"Are you okay that looks like it hurts.." Beverly entered the alley, Bill following closely behind her. Ben blushed.

"Uh, no, I'm good. I just fell," He grinned at her, unable to control himself around his crush. Richie snorted.

"Yeah, right into Henry Bowers," He remarked. Elena lifted her hand and pinched his arm making him squeal. "Ow!".

"Shut it, R-R-Richie," Bill gritted his teeth and warned him. 

"Why? It's the truth!" He defends himself, stepping away from Elena. Beverly stepped forward.

"You sure they got the right stuff?" She winked at Ben. "To fix you up?".

Ben smiled a toothy grin, understanding the reference she was making.

"You know, w-w-w-we'll take c-care of him," Bill assured her. "Thanks again, B-Beverly," He smiled at her.

"Sure," She returned the smile. "Maybe I'll see you around,".

"Yeah, we were thinking about g-going to the q-q-q-quarry tomorrow," Bill explained to her. "If you wanted to come..".

"Good to know," Beverly nodded. "Thanks," She said and waved goodbye.
