The wind was knocked out of me as jolted awake unable to breathe, I wheezed until I felt something press against my lips. Eddie's inhaler, I opened my mouth and Eddie pushed the top, the medicated air flooded my lungs as I inhaled. I looked to see who and or what had knocked the wind out of me to find Richie Tozier.
"Seriously Richie?" Stan questioned.
"What? we had to wake her up somehow!" Richie snickered.
"B-by kn-kno-knocking the w-wind out o-of h-her?" Bill challenged.
"Okay guys! Amber I'm sorry." Richie said defeatedly.
"It's ok trashmouth." I joked. "Who wants breakfast?" I ask.
"Me!" everyone states
"Okay pancakes or french toast?" I question.
" Pancakes" Everyone screams in unison.
"Woah! Ok." I laugh.
I go to the kitchen and grab the ingredients to make the pancakes and start making them when the phone rings. I walk over and look at the caller ID, Harper, I grab the phone and answer it.
"Hello?" I ask.
"Hey!" Harper says excitedly.
"What's up?" I puzzled.
"I was wondering If you wanted to go shopping with me today?" Harper asked.
"Yeah sure, what time?" I ask.
"Umm around 4:30 pm?" She answered questionably.
"That's fine." I say happily.
"Ok pick you up at 4:30!" She beamed.
"Yup! See ya then!" I sang.
"Bye!" Harper spoke.
"Bye!" I said.
I hung up the phone and finished making the pancakes, I plated them and handed out the plates.
"Thank you Amber!" They all chorused.
"No problem, hey I'm going shopping with Harper later so you can guys can stay here or leave it is up to you." I inform them.
"Ok, I have to leave anyway my mom is going to kill me if I don't get home." Eddie sighed.
"I have to go practice for my bar mitzvah." Stan replied.
"So what about you three? I questioned, looking at Bill, Georgie, and Richie.
"W-W-We do-nt have a-a-anywhere to be." Bill motioned to Georgie and himself.
"Neither do I" stated Richie.
"Ok then, you guys can stay here if you want." I shrugged.
"Sounds good to me." replied Richie.
"I'm going upstairs to get changed. I stated.
I went to the bathroom and some of the concealer had rubbed off, so you could see the black eye I had from Patrick. Let's hope they didn't notice. I hopped in the shower and washed, got out did my makeup and put on this outfit:
By the time I got out it was 2:00 pm. "Still, 2 hours and thirty minutes until she picks me up" I thought to myself. I went downstairs and saw Bill, Georgie, and Richie sitting on my couch. "What do you guys want to do?" I asked them.
"How about we take Georgie to the park?" Richie suggests.
"T-That sounds g-g-good." Bill added in.
"Yeah, let's go to the park!" Georgie exclaimed.
"Okay, get ready." I told them.
I let them get ready and started out the door. "Let's go!" I yelled. I got into my mom's black SUV and watched as Richie and Bill fought over who got shotgun. I put the keys in the ignition, "Get in or I'm leaving you guys and just taking Georgie!" I exclaimed. Richie ended up getting shotgun and I told Bill he could have shotgun on the way back."Buckle up guys." I piped, backing out of the driveway. I drove to the park, parked the car, and took the keys out of the ignition, I got out of the car and walked to the kiddie side of the park.I sat down on a bench and watched as Georgie and Bill went off to play. Richie came and sat next to me, watching them too.
"Hey Amber?" Richie asked.
"Yes trashmouth?" I joked.
"How did you get that black eye and the cuts?" "Shit." I mentally cursed.
"I-I fell down the stairs" I lied miserably.
"No, you didn't. Tell me the truth." Richie said in disbelief.
"Fine, but don't tell the others." I said seriously.
"I won't I promise." Richie stated.
"I got into a fight with Patrick Hocksetter." I stated.
Just then Georgie came up and poked me. "Tag, you're it!" He exclaimed. "I'm going to get you,you little turd!" I say as I act as if I'm angry. Richie, Georgie, Bill, and I all played tag and other games for about an hour. I looked at my phone and it read 4:15 Pm. Shoot!
"Guys race you to the car!" I exclaim as I start to run for the car. We all got there at about the same time, so it was a tie. We got in the car and drove home just in time to see Harper pull up with her mom.
