Dare Me (Henry Bowers x Reader)

The Well

I walk up the sidewalk and into the arcade where Richie was. "Hey, little dude." "Hey." He replies shortly playing his game. "You need to make up with your friends." Bill rushes in the door grabbing my arm. "Speak of the devil. What's up kid?"

"What do you want? You see that guy I'm hitting, I'm pretending it's you." "Rich, come on." I elbow him softly.

"IT got Beverly." My blood turned cold. "Bev?" "What are you talking about?" Richie says occupied with the game. "IT, Richie! IT got Beverly." "Oh shit."

14 feet stood at the old rotten house fear dripping within the thick air. "Guys, spikes," I say and pass some of the rusted metal to the kids.

"Stan?" I ask as I see him with clouded eyes. I walk over to him and place my hands on his shoulders. Stan. Kid, we all have to go, Bevvie was right. If we split up like last time, that clown will kill us, one by one, but if we stick together, all of us... we'll win. I promise." I hold back my tears and push my fear down.

Stan nods and follows the rest of us to the well in the basement.

"Eddie, you got a quarter?" "I wouldn't want to make a wish in that fucking thing."

"Beverly?" I yell down the dark well only to hear my own voice back bouncing off the stone walls.

"H-How are we supposed to get down there?" Bill asks looking around for a solution. "Hey look! I could use this to hang myself!" Richie says pulling at the rope and making a funny face. "Richie stop playing around fucking numbnuts." Richie's face furrows and he scoffs. "You sound like fucking Bowers." "Nasty habit."

We get the rope hooked above the well and are proceeding to climb down. "Bill are you ready?" He nods and climbs down. Next Eddie, then Ben, then Richie. "Watch your hands!" "Shut up!" I smack his butt making him scream.

"Alright, Mike. Are you ready?" I ask turning around to face him, but only come to face a bloody faced Henry with his knife pressed up against Mike's neck. "(Y/n)." Mike squeaks frightened. "Shh Hey. Okay. It's okay." I panic seeing the rage in Henry's eyes. He wouldn't dare hurt me right?

"Henry. I need you to let him go." Henry laughs and only pushed down on the blade harder. "Henry please." He pushed harder causing Mike to scream and blood to flow. I charge Henry pushing him away from Mike.

Henry just laughs and throws me to the ground getting on top of me.

"(y/n)! No!" "(Y/n)!" "Are you okay?" "FUCK!" "DON'T HURT HER YOUR FUCKER!" The children scream from the well. "Stop Henry. Stop!" I scream trying to get him off of me. I kick and punch him but nothing works. He giggles and pressed my neck down placing the silver cattle gun upon my forehead. I look into his eyes stuggling to find my boyfriend. "Henry. T-this isn't...you." I choke out looking into the flaming eyes his blue orbs fighting to regain power.

"P-please Hen. Please. Fight it." Henry places his finger on the trigger and I close my eyes choking on my sobs.

"NO!" Henry screams right before he pulls the trigger lifting it away from my head and tosses the gun away towards Bill. He goes limp and falls on top of me shuddering. Sobbing. Shaking. I pull his face to see mine. His blood covered cheeks stained with his tears. "Henry?" I peep quietly, my voice broken. His blue eyes find my own and he latches onto me within seconds.

His lips attacking mine and his arms holding me close. "What the fuck? GET THE FUCK OFF HER!" Richie kicks Henry in the ribs making his roll off of me clutching his side.

"Are you okay? Fucking rapist!" "You've got to be kidding me four-eyes! I'm going to kill you!" "No, you're not Henry." I groan sitting up and going over to Henry. "You okay?" He nods then looks up around him. "This is fucking weird." Henry mumbles. "YEAH, NO SHIT! WHY WERE YOU SUCKING FACE WITH MY SISTER? I'M GOING TO KICK YOUR-" "RICHIE SHUT THE FUCK UP!"

I place my hand on Henry's cheek seeing the sorrow in his eyes. "Henry, what'd you do?" He just lets a tear run free. 

"Okay, shitheads here's the thing. I've been with Henry since-" "That Halloween party." "No. I kissed you there and then we hated each other until you snuck into my room. It's a long story." "THAT WAS HIM?" Henry smirks raising his head higher. "Fucking right it was." "You sisterfucker!" Richie exclaims and goes after Henry until I push him back. 

"STOP! This is new and weird and big for all of you! Your favorite person is dating your enemy! I get it! But we are pushing that aside and we are going to save Beverly! You're my kids and I'm not letting some killer clown fuck over my life again... It won't take anyone from us again. It won't take our family again."

Bill nods his head. "Let's do this.
