Ashley~

The next morning, I woke up and got dressed on my favorite outfit. I went downstairs to grab breakfast. "So how was your day darling?" Mom asked. "Fine. Just going over to the quarry with Beverly." I said. "Alright honey have fun and bring sun screen! I don't want to have a daughter coming home with skin cancer." "I won't mom I promise." I head outside and grabbed my bike and head over to the quarry. I knew Beverly was busy for the summer so I just stayed there alone. I parked my bike and looked at the high cliff. I took a big breath and jumped in the water with my swim suit on.

I took a couple of laps around the water and just swam like a mermaid. Then, I saw him and his gang coming down. So I hid behind a rock. I wonder if I should go over there but then, I rolled my eyes and went over to get my stuff. That's when a hand covered my mouth and pulled me over to the other side. "Thought you could get away from me sweetie?" Henry Bowers happens to be my worst enemy. He kept on covering my mouth while kissing me. I try to scream but nothing.
That's where I heard him. "Leave her alone you mullet wearing assholes!"

To my surprise, Trashmouth and his friends finally noticed me. "Your trying too hard." He says still hovering me. He grabbed a knife and placed it to the tip of my throat. "Let her go let her go!" Was al I remember him saying. He cut the tip of my chest. I muffled out from his hand. A tear drop fell from my face. Then, that's when the rock came in contact with Henry. And the rest of the others left. "Are you alright Ashley?" Oh wow he knows my name!
