Beverly's point of view
It's amazing how my friendship with the losers grew. We are very close to each other and we keep secrets. I do have a secret which I am afraid to tell them. I am in love with Bill. He is handsome and perfect.
Since I am the only girl in the group they are protective of me. I hadn't smoked since I became friends with them. I didn't feel the need to do it. I have great chemistry and communication with my friends, and for now, I don't need anything new. My aunt wants to move to Derry for me. She said that Portland is far from here and I am too young to travel to the country alone.
I am going to the grocery store to buy some pasta to cook.
I see Bill. My heart is beating faster and I walked closer to him. I put my hand on his shoulder and I got his attention. He blushed.
" Hello Bill, what brings you here?" I asked.
" My mom sent me to buy st-stuff." he replied.
" Do you want me to wait for you. I got all I need." I suggested.
" Ok, B-Bev, d-do y-you think that my stutter is annoying?"
" No, of course not. I think it's cute and it makes you special." I answered.
He smiled. He is so cute when he smiles. It makes me forget about all of my past problems and it makes me believe that I deserve to be loved by someone special like him.
Then, I remember that poem. The poem Ben wrote for me. I can't deny it. It was a cute gesture and I appreciate it, but I don't have feelings for him. I think I like Bill more. No, I don't like Bill more. I love Bill with all of my heart.
