The Girl In The Red Raincoat (Pennywise x Reader)

Chapter 4: French

   "Did you see the way Harry was looking at you?" Margaret asked, linking her arm in mine as we walked back to our dorms.

"Excuse me?" I asked.

"Yeah as soon as you got there he was checking you out." She said wiggling her eyebrows.

I had never really thought of Harry in that way, mainly because, I guess...I thought he would never think of me in that way. He was cute, nice and smart... when he remembered to bring his supplies.

"Is that why you wanted me to wear my cute swimsuit?" I said finally realizing her plan.

"Maybe. But you must admit it worked." she said, winking.

  It was later on in the night, around eleven and I was studying for classes that were about to start up again on Monday. It had been a week since anything had happened and I was just trying my best not to think about it.

"(Y/N)" I heard whispered, ever so faintly in my ear.

I jumped not knowing what just happened. "Must have been my imagine..." i thought, returning to my studies.

    My eyes shot open, confused as to where I was, I looked to my left at the alarm clock sitting on my night stand and it read '3:00am' "what the hell" I said rolling onto my back with my eyes closed. I took a deep breath and opened my eyes. *POP* was all I heard as a big red balloon popped right in front of my face and then, disappeared. I laid still in complete shock, not knowing what to do. I couldn't scream, I couldn't cry, I just laid still with my arms by my sides. I didn't sleep the rest of the night.

  I walked into room 20D on Monday morning and took my seat. Harry was already sitting in the seat to the left of mine and he gave a me a smile as we made eye contact. I could feel my face begin to turn red and I smiled back.

"Hey" he said, "hey" I replied looking at him briefly.

I tried my best not to look out of the widow all class. It was like it was taunting me but I refused to give in.

   Professeur dismissed us from the lecture and I was gathering my things, happy I was able to avoid peering out the window.

Then Harry approached me, "would you want to have lunch with me?"

"What?" I said in complete shock. 

"Lunch? Like today, if you want?" He asked.

"Oh, yes- yes I want to" I said so awkwardly, I immediately cursed myself out in my head.

   "So what are you studying? I don't think you've ever told me." Harry asked as we sat in a diner sharing a plate of fries.

"I'm not sure yet" I chuckled."I couldn't decide before graduating high school so I just went into general studies." I said playing with a fry.

"What about you?" I asked.

"I want to become a professor."

"Really that's, that's cool" I said smiling. "In what?"

"French, actually." He said giving a slanted grin.

"I hope you just remember to bring pens when you teach then." I said cheekily, which made him laugh.

We walked back to school and as we past another building of the university he turned to me and said "Well  my next class is in there, sadly. I'll see you around" he said, giving a grin.

"See you in French" I said.

He chuckled and we parted ways.

I made my way back to my dorm room, not having any other classes for the day. I sat on my bed once again studying, drinking a cup of apple cider that I had made when I heard a small tap at my window. I looked at it but nothing was there. Typical. I'm becoming way too paranoid. I continued to read but after a few seconds, there was two taps. I got up from my bed looking at my window, no tree branches or birds were in sight, so I had no idea what was making the sounds. Then suddenly, three taps. I become irritated and raise my hand, tapping four times. I wasn't exactly sure what this would accomplish but I had the urge to do it, I couldn't explain it. Then nothing, compete silence. I stood at the window for what must have been half an hour... just waiting, but once again, nothing.

   *Authors note*
This wasn't the best chapter but I didn't know what to put as filler. I have plans for the future and putting it together is difficult, I commend all you writers!!
