CHAPTER EIGHT:
YOU'RE GORGEOUS

   

     THE NEXT day, the boys and Elise headed over to Beverly's place, "you made it, I-I.. need to show you something." Beverly said and Elise gets off her bike, walking over to grab her arm gently. "What is it?" Ben asked her and Elise looks at Richie who spoke next, "more than what we saw at the Quarry?" "Shut your trap, Tozier," Elise says right away to him before they all look back at Beverly.

"My dad would kill me if he found out I had boys in the apartment." Beverly says and Elise looks down. "Um, Richie and Dave can stay and they can both be a lookout?" Elise says as a suggestion to them and Bill nodded as they all got off their bikes. "Woah, woah, what if her dad comes back?" Richie asked from beside Dave and Stan turns.

"Do what you always do. Start talking." He says befofe turning around and following the group. "It is a gift!" Richie said then looked at David with a defeated look. David chuckled as he looks away, shaking his head before watching his best friends walk up the stairs with their new friends.

As the group turns to face the closed bathroom door, Timothy looks at Elise who had the same look on her face. "In there," Beverly says as they all came to stop. "What is it?" Stan asked. "You'll see." Beverly says before they all start walking.

"Are you taking us to the bathroom?" Eddie says before he started rambling again about basically all that Eddie ever worries about then Bill pushed the door open, Timothy looking over his shoulder as Eddie shuddered, "I knew it!" He says then gagged. "You see it?" Beverly asked.

"Yes." Eddie clarifies.

"What happened in here?" Timothy asked as she looked at the ginger who stood with Elise. "My dad couldn't see it. I thought I might be crazy.." Beverly said and Elise reached for her hand to grab gently with hers. "Well, then if you're crazy.. we're all crazy." Ben says. "We can't leave it like this." Bill said, walking in with Timothy following behind, looking around the bathroom.

And so the group of kids started to clean up the bathroom, wiping away every inch of blood in the whole room. Timothy was scrubbing the bathtub, Bill was mopping the floor, Eddie was scrubbing the walls with Ben who also would get down to scrub the floor, Stan was wiping the window in a sort of neatly way, Beverly was wiping the mirror and Elise was scrubbing the door and the walls all around. Eventually the bathroom was clean and as the others left, holding garbage bags, Timothy noticed it was only him and Bill now.

The two were alone. Now is your chance. He looks at Bill who was finishing up mopping and so Timothy walks over, pouring the water into the tub then Bill came over and was now doing the same, glancing at Timothy sometimes.

"Why d-d-do y-y-you even h-hang out with u-u-us? It makes y-y-you a l-loser, too, you're w-w-way b-b-better off without us, y-you and Elise, and D-David.." Bill said as he sets the now empty bucket down, Timothy doing the same as he looks over at him. He then realized how close they stood and he turns to face him fully as he smiled slightly. "Because I'd rather be a loser or whatever than be a raging asshole like Bowers.." He says and Bill turns to face him too, pursing his lips gently before he steps closer to the older teen. A lot of confidence was in his one step and Timothy could tell.

"I like being around you, anyway, Bill.. You're cool." He says with a small smile at the boy who then spoke, "me, c-c-cool? No way. I-I'm a loser.." He says as he shook his head and Timothy shook his head lightly. He always thought of Bill so highly, so hearing Bill talk about himself this way, made him sigh. "Well. I think you're cool." Timothy says as he raised his hand to Bill's hair, pushing it back gently before pulling his hand away with a smile, Bill blushed. "And super adorable. I like your blue eyes the most.." He said shyly as he blushed.

Bill smiled at that. Timothy Davidson thought he was super adorable? No way. He bites his bottom lip. "Adorable?" He asked in a soft tone and Timothy only nods as he stepped much closer slowly. "Totally adorable," he said. By now there was an inch of space between them and neither one even worried someone would walk in and see them, they knew if it was one of their friends, they wouldn't really mind or exactly push the two boys apart.

In fact, Timothy can already just hear Elise's or David's reaction, same with Bill about his friends. Richie would yell, get a room at them, Stan would roll his eyes but not in a homophonic way, it'd be more of in a God-just-kiss-already way, the same with Eddie and they both knew Beverly would just smile and say they were super cute. David would just yell Jesus, just kiss already! And Elise would just smile and then say get married, but in a joking matter because they're all too young for that.

"So, um.. i-is this the p-p-part where I k-kiss y-you, then, T-T-Timmy?" He whispered and Timothy smiled at Bill's confidence. He stuttered a lot but he liked that he gathered enough to ask that, it takes a lot to actually do it with no worry, but to ask? Not even Timothy could do that. Ever. "If you want to." He says and then Bill leaned in slowly.

He was just about an inch away, he closes his eyes slowly as he raised his hand to Timothy's waist. Timothy smiled as he puts his hand to Bill's neck, he leans in, closing the space fully between them before he pressed his lips against Bill's before pulling away, still smiling as he stares into Bill's eyes. "You're gorgeous, Denbrough.." He says and Bill started blushing a lot at that, looking away. "Um, c-can I ask? Uh, are y-you and D-Dave a thing?" He asked as he pulled his hand away, somewhat in worry he might have just messed up and kissed a boy who was taken. Timothy noticed, he chuckled at that, pulling his hand away from Bill as well.

He shook his head, "no. Not really, he exactly doesn't have a thing for white guys." He says, sheepishly smiling and Bill looks down. "So.. you think I'm gorgeous?" He asked. "Very.." Timothy says, still staring when Bill looks up at him. "Now, let's go join the others before they have the wrong idea since we've been in here for so long, they're probably waiting," Timothy says, slipping his hand into Bill's before leading him out the room.

Timothy couldn't believe it as he walked Bill out of the bathroom, a smile on his face, he actually finally kissed Bill Denbrough. And he didn't have to be the one to initiate it first, Bill did, and he even asked Timothy, because of how polite he was. Well, either that or maybe he figured he should ask especially if it came to kissing a boy.

Bill was also smiling, he couldn't believe he actually kissed Timothy, his neighbor since he was a kid, he always thought he was cute if he was being honest. Going through puberty just somehow amplified that, his feelings grew stronger.

As the boys walked down the stairs, Timothy would glance back at Bill and smile, Bill would smile right back at him, blushing slightly at the thought of their kiss in the bathroom of that apartment, they were no longer holding hands seeing as they were outside now but both boys were happy anyway, they knew they wanted to very badly.

They walk over to their bikes, picking them up, both boys were still thinking about the kiss even when they all started walking, alongside their bikes. Timothy's brain felt fuzzy and it was like he can still feel Bill's lips on his own. "Why do you look so happy? What, did cleaning up period blood make you happy?" David asked as he walks side by side with Timothy who looks over at him.

"Hmm? Oh, um.. No, ew, that's disgusting, don't say that." He says with a grimace and David chuckled. "Then what is making you so happy? Did you finally get your peener sucked?" He asked and Timothy rolls his eyes. "Stop calling it that! I was only twelve, I didn't wanna really say penis.." He says and David only laughed at that.
