I had picked up the boys and was now on our way to Bev's house. "Okay Okay, okay. Can you just tell me what she said exactly?" Eddie asks from behind me. "I told you, all she said was that it was important and that we needed to get there ASAP," I reply driving int the driveway of Bev's apartment complex. "You made it. I... I need to show you something." Beverly says. "More than what we saw at the quarry?"

Richie asks. "Richie!" I whisper yell punching him in the arm. "Shut up! Just shut up, Richie." Eddie says. "My dad will kill me if he finds out I had boys in the apartment." Bev fiddles with her bracelets that we made only the other day. "T-Then we'll l-leave an l-lookout. Richie, s-s-stay here." Bill stutters. as Bill, Eddie, Ben, Stan, and I leave our bikes and accompany Beverly to the apartment Richie yells back at us. "Whoa, whoa, whoa! What if her dad comes back?" Stan glancing at Richie as the rest of us follow Beverly up the steps. "Do what you always do. Start talking." Stan turns and follows us up the stairs.

"It is a gift," Richie says.

Beverly leads us into a hallway towards a door with a red glowing light from behind it. "In there." Stan glances at the nearly closed door. The smell of blood creeps in my senses and I squirm "it's blood." I cringe as I say that. "Wait blood?! You are not taking me in there!" Eddie yelps. "89% of the worst home accidents occur in the bathroom." Eddie says. "That's where you came from eds." I say while Eddie quietly flips me off. Beverly reaches her hand out and opens the door. The walls were covered in gooey blood making the light from the windows shine red. The blood made me want to throw up. "Gross, gross,gross!" Eddie says taking a puff from his inhaler.

"Y-you see it too?" Bev says. "Yeah, it's fucking disgusting" Eddie yells. We walked in the bathroom and look at the walls in awe. "My dad couldn't see it, I thought I was going crazy." She says. "If you're crazy, we're all crazy," Mike says. "How did this happen?" Stan asked. "M-more importantly l-l-lets clean t-t-this u-up," Bill replies.

We all walked out of Bev's apartment, she had decided that she wanted to stay as far from her house as possible. The boys were arguing about something while I was talking to Bev about what happened, trying to make her feel at least a little bit better. "Shut up, Richie!" I heard Stan say. "Yeah, sh-sh-shut up, Richie!" Bill replies. "Oh great! Trash the trash mouth I see! At least I didn't imagine my sink going all Eddies mom's vagina on Halloween!" Richie yelled.

"She didn't imagine it." I say "y-y-yeah, I saw it t-t-too." Bill replies. "Did you see blood too?" Richie asked. "Not o-only all of the b-b-blood but I s-s-saw something else... i-i-I saw..G-G-Georgie...it s-seemed so real... like i-it really was h-h-him but... there w-was a... a." Bill started. "clown."Eddie finished. "Same I saw the clown," Mike said. "Can only Virgins, see this stuff is that why y/n Stan and I can't see this shit?" Richie said. I look at him and flip him off.

We arrive in the middle of town Eddie decides to go and buy some ice cream for him and Richie. The rest of us go down an alley to see a poster of Corcoran saying that he was missing. "They said they found part of his hand all chewed up near the standpipe," Ben says. "He asked to borrow a pencil once," Bev says. "He was my lab partner." I mumble. A kid that I talked to at least two weeks ago is now missing. That could've been me.

Bev and I turned around and saw Richie fighting with one of the marching band members trying to play the trombone we roll our eyes and start to try to pay attention to the others. The poster was flapping in the wind there was a poster underneath Corcoran's one. It was Betty. "It's like she's been f-f-f-forgotten because C-Corcoran's missing." Bill says "Is it ever gonna end?" Stan asks. "What the fuck, dude?!" Richie yells at the trombone guy.
"What are you guys talking about?" Eddie turns the corner holding two ice creams "What they always talk about." Richie says grabbing his ice cream.
