Well, I'm so sorry for this late updateeee! It's just that I'm busy helping my family prepare for tonight's feast. Here it is enjoy and have a wonderful Christmas Eve tonight! Thank you💕💕💕

Beverly's POV

All the Losers were gathered at Stan's room. We were all busy talking about the plans we'll do tomorrow at the meadow.

"Why don't we finish the tree house tomorrow?" Mike suggested as he fidgeted the pen he was holding.

All of us gave an approved looked at one another.

"Eddie!" Richie suddenly shouted.

Every one of us turned our attention to them. Richie held his mouth as if he was going to vomit. He ran to us with his eyes clouded with tears.

"Richie what the hell is happening to you!?" Stand said while shaking Richie's shoulder.

That's when Eddie woke up and slowly walked to us. Richie being aware of this, quickly wiped his tears.

"Guys what's going on?" Eddie yawned.

Speechless as we all are, none of us got to answer Eddie. He then saw the swollen eyes of Richie. He turned to him but the other boy avoided eye contact.

"Are you...crying?" Eddie asked.

"No I wasn't" Richie said in denial.

My hands were shaking and my chest felt heavy. Something about Richie's face tells me bad things are going to happen to all of us.

"You were crying earlier. I heard you so stop fucking lying! Tell me, what happened? Are you okay?" Eddie sniffed.

Richie turned his hands into fists and looked down.

"Nothing's fine Eddie! I'm not fucking fine!" He shouted.

After that Richie ran into Stan's bathroom.

"I'll go after him, Eddie do you want to come?"

Eddie who was still in shock after Richie yelled at him, stayed quiet and motionless at his position. I quickly ran to where Richie was.

As I slowly went in, I saw him sitting on the floor with his hair being a complete mess. I kneeled down and pat his back.

"What happened back there? You yelled at Eddie and that is really unusual. He was just worried you know" I spoke softly.

I was shocked when Richie looked at me with tears falling down his face.

"Bev, I saw every one of us. We were old like our folks. It felt so real but then we were back at that damn sewer. Then there was this scream and the next thing I knew Eds was..." He paused before completely tearing up.

Richie saw us back at the sewer? Was that a premonition? Is that damn clown out to try and kill us in the future? I fell on the floor as I realized the horror Richie's dream was. I looked at him as he cried.

"I don't want to lose Eddie nor any of you. I- I just can't" he sobbed.

I hugged him softly and pat his back again.

"We won't let that happen. Were going to be prepared and were going to kick that clown's ass, okay? It's going to be okay, just like Ben's says to me all the time" I smiled.

"Since when did you and Ben started to hang out? I thought you like Bill" he said while wiping his face and completely changing the topic.

I fidgeted my fingers slowly.

"Well yeah I liked Bill".

"Then what's up with you and Ben?" He asked.

"I like Bill but that was before. I realized the person that was there for me all this time was Ben, I liked him for that" I smiled.

After that we both heard Stan call our names.

"We better go back, I'm sure Eddie's waiting for you. Are you going to tell him though?" I asked.

"No. Not ever Bev. I'll figure this out myself and I won't let any harm come to Eddie" he promised.

"Were here too, we'll help you" I said, assuring him that we'll help him no matter what.

We both stood up and went out of the bathroom.

"I think you owe us an explanation. Especially you Richie" Stan said.

Richie took a deep breath and faced them.

"Not now" he said.

All of them sighed in disappointment.

I went to Ben's side who was quiet all of a sudden.

"Ben? You okay?" I asked.

Ben nodded and smiled weakly at me making me feel uncomfortable.
