☆ Y/Ns Pov ☆

It's been a few days since the Henry Bowers incident and since then me and the losers have became more close than ever. Today me and Richie were meeting Everyone at the Quarry.

"Billy likes you  Y/N, like alot! He seriously gonna go yandere!" Richie said out of no where.

I stayed silent for a moment not entirely sure how to react

"Well he has always been like a brother to me and that it's it.." I replied hesitantly.

"You should tell him That!"

I sighed.

By the time I caught up to the losers they all had stripped down to their underwear and were standing by the cliff.

"Who's gonna go?" I heard them ask.

"We Will!" Replied Beverly from behind me.

She took off her dress and so did I. She looked at me and smiled.

"Let's show these Sissy's" she said

I nodded we both ran in between the boys and jumped. In the jump I turned around and gave them the middle finger.

There was slight talking before I watched Billy jump off then the others one by one.

"CHICKEN FIGHT" Beverly called out.

I turned to Eddie and he nodded. I jumped on his shoulders and we charged after Bev and Bill. I managed to push bev into the water and we won! Richie, Ben, Billy and Bev went off somewhere to play while me and Eddie just stood there. He swam over to me and took a deep breathe.

"Y/N I would like to get something off my chest" he said staring directly into my eyes.

I nodded for him to go on.

"...I...I..I like you like alot Y/N" he said his face turning pink.

I stood there speechless I had always liked Eddie he was just perfect and I guess I thought he would never like me back. I was completely lost for words so instead I leaned in and kissed him. He kissed back. I wrapped my arms around his neck and pulled him closer. We both pulled away for air and as soon as we did we heard clapping and cheering. We turned to see everyone clapping except for Billy he look angry like really angry!

Billy growled causing everyone to look at him. Before I even processed what was happening Bill charged at Eddie and pushed him into the water.

"BILLY!!" I yelled trying to push him off the squirming boy.

Bill lifted Eddie out of the water and punched him. I watched Eddie's eyes slowly close.

"EDDIE!!" I screamed holding onto him.

We brought him on to the grass and kept shaking him. I put my forehead onto his and started to gently cry. All of a sudden I heard him cough out water and sit up.

"Oh my God Eddie!" I said wrapping my arms around him.

He hugged me back and sighed.

I sat up and looked around, Billy was gone..

◇ Time Skip ◇

6:07 pm

We all finished getting dressed and started to walk home, I decided to walk Eddie home first I didn't want Bill to pop out of no where and almost kill him again. I told Richie I would meet him at home and he just nodded.
On The way to his house he started to whistle but he looked uneasy.

"What's wrong?" I asked

"Nothing.." he replied looking around

Beep Beep

Eddie looked at me and sighed he took a blue container out of his fanny pack and he grabbed a pill he was about it put it in his mouth but a small creaking noise caught our attention.

Me and Eddie turned our heads to look towards the sudden noise. It came from the well house.

"Eddie.... What are you looking for" a raspy voice croaked from the building.  Ignoring it we continued to walk but even before Eddie took one step he spilled his pills on the ground.

"Oh Sh-" Eddie cursed under his breathe.

He bent down and started to pick them up with my help. We both reached for the same pill but before either of us could get it a slimy hand covered in bandages grabbed it.

"Do you.. think this will help me-"

We looked up at It and I screamed at the sight.

"- Eddie" it finished leaning towards his face.

Holy shit that thing looked like a walking infection!

Eddie grabbed my arm and we ran towards and to the side of the well house. Eddie tripped and took me with him. We immediately stood up and continued to run. We went into a bush and looked behind us to see red balloons stacked in a upside down pyramid. The balloons started to rise to reveal the same clown I seen before.

"Where you going Ed? If you lived here you'd be home by now!" It said in a deep cold voice.

Eddie had a look of horror on his face as he back up a little. I grabbed his hand and intertwined my fingers with his.

"Come to the clown ed,  you'll float down here!"

His grip on my hand got tighter as he started to breathe faster.

"We all float down here! Yes we do!" It said.

It started to laugh maniacally and that's when Eddie (and Me!) couldn't take it anymore we yelled and started to run but fell in the process. The balloons started to pop and It was gone..
