"I think it's great that we're helping the new kid but we also need to think about our own safety. I mean, he's bleeding all over and you guys know there's an aids epidemic happening right now as we speak. I mean my mom's friend got it by touching a dirty pole in the subway and she got aids blood into her system through a hangnail. A hangnail!" Eddie rambled all the way to the back of a building.

"I am going to kick you one of these days, eduardo!" Nancy screamed at eddie.

"How do you amputate a waist?!" Eddie screamed back at her.

Nancy hoped off from her bike and sat down beside ben. "Richie, wait here with n-nance. C'mon." Bill said and ran to the pharmacy with eddie and stan behind him.

"Glad I got to meet you before you died." Richie said to lighten up the mood.

"Rich, not now." Nancy shook her head. "I'm sorry about henry. He's an asshole who deserves rocks thrown at him."

"Are you his sister?" Ben asked.

Nancy sighed and shook her head. "He will never be my brother. At least I don't consider him my brother. He's far from it. But I have to live with him."

"I'm sorry." Ben apologized.

"Me too." Richie added.

"Guess that makes three of us." Nancy cracked a smile. Nancy enjoyed Ben's company. In the minutes they talked together, she had officially declared him part of their group. It wasn't long before bill, stan and eddie came back with supplies. "You actually had enough money for all that? Or did you run out with all that shit?" Nancy chuckled but her smile dissapeared when she saw that bill, stan and eddie weren't laughing.

"I feel like a criminal now." Stan confessed.

"Don't worry, I won't turn you in." Nancy held out her pinky. "I promise promise."

"That's some promise." Stan smiled.

Eddie began to work on Ben's wound. He grabbed the supplies and with the help of Nancy, they were able to patch up ben before his wound got infected. "Just suck the wound." Richie told eddie.

"I need to focus right now." Eddie said.

"You need to focus?"

"Rich, I'm sure the only focusing you do is when you play street fighter." Nancy passed eddie some bandages.

"Can you get me something?" Eddie continued to fix Ben's wound. "Go get my bifocals. They're in my second fanny pack."

Nancy snorted and hid her smile. "You have a second fanny pack?"

Eddie glared at her. "I need to focus right now, it's a long story."

"Oh god he's bleeding!" Stan called out.

"No shit, Stanley!" Nancy rolled her eyes. She looked over her shoulder and saw a familiar red head approaching them with a plastic bag in her hand.

"You have to suck the wound before you apply bandage." Richie instructed but eddie and nancy ignored him.

"Are you okay? That looks like it hurts." The red head, who nancy remembered her name, said.

Ben sat up and put down his shirt. "No I'm good. I just fell."

"Yeah, right into henry bowers." Richie added.

Nancy pinched richie's leg. "Shut up, rich."

"Why? It's the truth!"

"You sure they got the 'right stuff' to fix you up?" Beverly smiled at ben.

Nancy could see that ben had feelings towards Beverly. It was cute if she was being honest. "You know w-w-we'll take care of him." Bill told beverly. "Thanks again, beverly."

"Sure. Maybe I'll see you around." She nodded.

"Yeah. We were thinking about going to the q-quarry tomorrow. If you wanna come?" Bill stuttered.

"Good to know. Thanks." Beverly said before walking away and waving goodbye.

"Nice going, bringing up bowers infront of her." Stan frowned at richie.

"Seriously, out of all the dumbass things you could've said, you picked that?" Nancy sighed.

"Yeah, did you hear what she did?" Eddie asked.

"What she'd do?" Ben questioned.

"More like who'd she do. For what I hear the list is longer than my wang." Richie showed off.

"That's not saying much." Stan replied.

Bill interfered. "They're j-just rumors."

Richie brushed him off. "Anyway, bill had her back in third grade. They kissed in the school play! The reviews said you can't fake that sort of passion."

"And who says romance is dead?" Nancy smirked at bill.

"Now! Pip pip and tally-ho, my good fellows!" Richie clapped. "I do believe this chap requires our utmost attention. Now get in there Dr. K and nurse lennon and fix him up!"

"Why don't you shut the fuck up because we know what we're doing and I don't want you doing the British guy-"

"Suck the wound!"

"Bye, nance! See you at the quarry!" Richie pedaled faster, getting closer to his house, leaving stan and nancy by themselves.

"Bye trashmouth!" Nancy smiled. Stan continued to ride next to her until they arrived at the bowers'. She saw that Henry's car wasn't there yet so she was relieved. "Thanks for this."

"It's no big deal. I did promise promise that I would get you home safe." Stan said. "I'll see you tomorrow, nance."

"Yeah, you too. Get home safe, curly." Nancy smiled and walked to the front door of the house. She looked at stan riding his bike until she couldn't anymore. She didn't deserve stan. He was too pure for this world. She just hoped that he would survive it.
