The Girl In The Red Raincoat (Pennywise x Reader)

Chapter 35: Halloween

It was now Halloween and i just gotten back from class. I was studying, cuddling with the stuffed clown when someone knocked on my door. I opened it to see Margaret, dressed like Sandy from Grease. 

"Wow, looking good Maggie." she smiled at me, holding out her skirt. 

"Why thank you. Are you sure you don't want to come out tonight?" she sighed.

"I have a lot of studying to do..." i trailed off.

"Come on (Y/N) you always study, it's Halloween!" she said, grabbing my hands, pleading with me. 

She was right, i do spend  A LOT of time studying...

. "Fine" i sighed, "one problem, I don't have a costume." 

"You can wear my backup!" she exclaimed! "Come on, grab your stuff we'll get you ready in my room." 

We entered Margaret's room and I said "hello" to her roommate, Olivia, who was dressed as Princess Leia. Maggie walked over to her closet, rummaging for the costume that she decided against at the last minute. She was now doing a couples costume with a boy she knows, who would be dressed as Danny, obviously. She then pulled out a brown cap and bull whip, "ah here we go!" she handed it me, along with a button up. "Ta-da! Indiana Jones!" she said excitedly. I just shook my head and changed into the costume, trying to hold in my laughter. Well it's better than nothing.

We arrived at the party, which was taking place only a couple buildings down from ours. Music was blarring and everyone was dressed up. I followed Margaret as she looked for her date, this place was crowded. She finally spotted him from across the room and grabbed my hand, dragging me along and out of the crowd. We finally reached the guy in the letterman jacket and Margaret gave him a big hug. 

"Jack this (Y/N), my best friend, (Y/N) this is Jack, my Danny Zuko." we both chuckled.

"Hi nice to meet you" i said.

"Hey nice to meet you too, nice costume" i already liked him better than Matt...

My face fell as Jack and Margaret began talking, I couldn't look at them, it just brought me back to Matt. 

"I'm gonna go get a drink, want anything?" i asked them. 

"I'm good" they both replied, causing them to giggle like kids. 

I made my way over to the drinks table. I stood for a while, deciding what i wanted, 'Witches Brew' clever... 

I took a few sips of the drinks out of my cup, wincing at it's bizzare flavour. I turned back around to look at the card "green apple margarita with lime" what the hell? that sounds delicious, why does it taste so bad? 

I decided to go get some fresh air, I opened the front door and walked outside. As I was standing out in the lawn i got this overwhelming sense on nausea. I went back inside, found Margaret and told her i wanted to go home. "Okay, yeah you look really pale. What me to come with you?" she asked.

I shook my head, "no i can make it, thanks though. Have fun." 

I walked home with my hat and whip in my hand. 

When i reached my room i collasped onto my bed, not even bothering to take my shoes off. i adjusted to lay on my back, closing my eyes, just trying to breath. I was on the cusp of sleep when something jolted me awake. The music box which was sitting on my dresser had flown open, causing the clown figure to spin. Jesus, i exhaled, trying to slower my heart. 

"Did i scare you?" Penny's voice came out of the corner, causing me to jump again.

"Oh my god" i screamed. "Why would you do that" i asked perching onto my elbows.

"It's Halloween" he came out of the corner, revealing his silk costume. 

"That doesn't mean you have to give your girlfriend a heart attack" i said in between my teeth as i chucked my pillow at him. "I thought you'd be hunting?" 

"I was." he simply said. 

"Isn't this like, prime hunting season today?" i said, making a O with my thumb and pointer finger. 

"Yes." he said walking over the bed. 

"You don't look good." he said bluntly.

"Thanks." i said back, sarcastically. "I don't feel well, that's all."

"Can i help?" he asked sincerely. 

"No, it's just my stomach." i said laying back down, putting my clasped hands over my face. 

We heard laughter coming outside from a group of drunk college kids passing by. Penny didn't move. 

I looked at him, fully expecting him to take the opportunity and get another meal. 

"You not gonna go scare them?" i asked. 

"(Y/N) isn't feeling well, i'm not leaving." he said, playing with the balloon. 

"I'll be fine" i chuckled. 

He then sat on the end of the bed, "get some sleep, i'll be here".

I got up, taking off my shoes, bra and pants, leaving me in the button up. I got under my blanket and closed my eyes, feeling Penny's soft blue eyes on mine. 

"I love you." i said, before drifting off to sleep.
