Y/N POV

"Bonjour, Tozier residence, Y/N speaking."

"Hey, Y/N? Meet us at Marsh's place."

"Sure thing, what ti-"

The call ended abruptly and I walked towards the dining room where Richie was. He was eating a peanut butter and jelly sandwich while watching a rerun of 'Silver Spoons.' Some American show that ended a while ago. He's been obsessing over it ever since I got here.

"DEREK DON'T GO! RICKY NEEDS YOUUU!" Richie sobbed.

 "Hey, Rich. Stan said that we need to head over to Marsh's place."

"Why? Can't you see I'm trying to have a nice time with my boys."

"Just come on, that show ended like 2 years ago."

"The show may have died, but Der-ricks love will never." Richie dramatically dropped to the floor.

I rolled my eyes and dragged him out the door.

We arrived at Bev's apartment building.

As she ran down the stairs the strong scent of cigarettes hit my nose, but I couldn't tell where it was coming from.

"You made it, I-" 

We dropped our bikes and walked closer to her. 

"I need to show you something." Bev continued.

"What is it?" Kaspbrak asked.

"More than what we saw at the quarry?" Richie butted in 

"Shut up. Just shut up, Richie" Kaspbrak slapped the back of Richs' head. 

"My dad would kill me if he found out I had boys in the building." Bev rubbed her arm.

"Then why don't you just take Y/N so we can leave?" Richie crossed his arms.

"Sucer ma bite." I glared at him.

"Why do I get the feeling she just insults us in French." Stan said.

"Ronald Mcdonald."

"Ok, that wasn't even French." Stan turned away.

"Y/N, c-can you be our l-look out then?" Bill asked.

"Yeah, me too. 2 is always better than 1 anyways..." Kaspbrak smiled nervously.

"Fine. Me and 'Eddie Bear' can be look outs."
I wrapped my arm around his shoulder and pulled him closer to me.

"Wait, but what if her dad comes?!" Kaspbrak's voice filled with regret.

"Just have Y/N act like a lost tourist." Stan followed close behind the group up to Beverly's apartment.

Kaspbrak sat down on the grass and I sat along beside him.

"Why did you move to Derry anyway? I feel like it would be more "glamorous" in Paris." He started

"I wouldn't say it was 'glamorous.' I mean I was a baby model for a toddler clothing line, and I used to do pageants until I got here. Honestly though, my dad felt it would've been best to have me live in America. Safer, y'know? He would've come with, but he could only afford to have me move over here. He does send Maggie money to keep me living at their house, but it's whatever.

"Wait wait...you did pageants?" Kasbrak chuckled a bit.

"Yeah, don't laugh. I was making hella cash. I could've been a millionaire by now."

"Sure, you probably could've been a victoria's secret model too huh?" He nudged me a bit.

"Shut up, wheezy. I'm glad I moved here. All of my old friends weren't that great anyway. You all are so nice and caring here, not to mention funny."

"I'm especially glad I met you, Eds."

"Really?" He started fidgeting with his fingers.

"Of course. I've never met anyone like you. I've never met someone as relatable as you either. Although you're pretty stuck up and bitchy, that's what I like about you." I smiled at him and continued to weave dandelion flowers together.

"That's...actually really sweet, Y/N."

He gave me an awkward smile and leaned his head on my shoulder. I could slightly hear his heart beat. It was beating pretty hard and fast. It's only been a couple of days since I've known him, but I never thought I'd ever see him this calm.

"Y/N...can I tell you something?" Kaspbrak started fidgeting again.

"You can tell me anything, Eds."

"Do you-" He lifted his head up off my shoulder and looked at me.

His face turned a bright red. I just stared at him blankly. Not even a second later he vomited all over Richie's bike. I burst into laughter.

"Are you ok?!" I gasped for air.

He seemed embarrassed and wiped the vomit off of his mouth with a kleenex from his fanny pack. I rubbed his back and placed the finished flower crown on his head.

" I'm fine...um. Do you..." He hesitated and looked at the ground.

"Do you... have a favorite color?"

"That was the question?"

"Y-Yeah...is that a problem?"

"No, not at all."

"Well what is it?"

"Probably..."

 I thought about it, I never really had one. I've always just had signature colors. I looked over to Kaspbrak and analyzed him.

"Probably yellow."

He smiled.

"Mines green"

"Vous etes mignon." 

I ruffled his hair and laid back on the grass.
