Getting to his house, Bill knocking on the door as Richie and Mike help Eddie stand.
"What happened to him!" The lady who opened the door screams, after getting one glace at her son's broken arm. All the boys around the door stiffen, not knowing what to say.
Kelsey, shrinking away behind Stanley, feeling as if Eddie's broken arm is her fault. Quickly Eddie's mother pulls Eddie from the front porch to her car. The three boys following her, stopping with the rest of their friends.
"You did this to him!" She shrieks, practically throwing Eddie in to the back seat of the car, closing the door. She turns around glaring at every child that she saw. "You know how fragile he is!" She accuses again, pointing to the them as a whole.
"W-we g-got attacked-" Bill gets cut off by the lady yelling again, in the process dropping her keys.
"Don't make excuses, don't blame this on anyone else but yourself!" The women bends about to grab her keys, before Beverley reaches down for it. Quickly the older woman swipes it away, standing properly as she glares at the red head.
"Oh I've heard about you Marsh, And I don't want a dirty girl like you going anywhere near my son!" She snears, going around her car, and getting in the driver's seat. "Eddie is done with you all!" She screams, as she drives off, Eddie's face in full view as they drive off.
Slowly the rest of the Loser's Club floods the empty street. All except Kelsey who still stands on the lawn, her hands cupped around her ears. Her eyes closed tight, as she shrinks backwards bumping into the landing of Eddie's porch.
"I saw the well, I know where we need to go next time," Bill states turning to look at his friends.
"No next time Bill, you're insane!" Stanley screams, looking to his stuttering friend with so much emotion.
"Why we all know no one else is gonma do anything!" Beverly retorts looking back to everyone.
"Eddie was nearly killed, and look at this mother fucker. He's leaking hamburger helpper!" Richie screams back matter of factly, gesturing to where Eddie had just left and Ben's sliced open stomach.
Looking around he notices Kelsey still on the lawn. Her back pressed against the base of the porch. "Shit, and look at Kels, she looks like she's going insane!" He informs running to her, slowly taking her hand into his.
Her eyes snap open fear, but it all washes away as she looks into Richie's brown ones. His thumbs rubs the back of her hand, trying to sooth her. After gaining her breathing, and stop shaking slightly, they begin to walk back to the group. The group who had still been arguing about the Well House.
"-I want to run towards something not away," Beverly explains her side to Ben, who was on the side for not going back.
"I'm sorry who invited Molly Ringwald in to the group?" Richie asks, having oberheard the conversation as he was helping the scared girl.
The grip on his hand became tighter, a signal Kelsey tried to use. Her knowing what he said might have been a little rude. Beverly in returned flipped the glasses boy off, making Kelsey release the hold.
"Richie," Stanley says in a soft voice behind Richie's girlfriend.
"I'm just saying let's face facts, Georgie is dead. Stop trying to get us killed to!" Richie's voice hard as he begins to pull Kelsey towards Bill, trying to leave the conversation.
Bill agitated, steps in front of him, "Georgie's not dead," Bill insists, looming down at the black ahired boy. With a squeak, Kelsey runs back, bumping in to Stanley. Without thinking the boy wraps his arm around her protectively.
"I'm just saying real world, you couldn't save him, but you can still save yourself," Richie's voice became softer, only trying to get his point across.
"I-I know you're s-scared we all a-are, b-but t-take it back!" Bill fires back, pushing Richie backwards, in retaliation Richie does the same thing back to the flannel wearing boy.
Within a second, Bill's fist swings at Richie's face, making the boy fall to the ground. Stanley lets go of the girl, who watched everything happen in horror. She drops to the ground, holding her ears, eyes shut tight. "You're just a bunch of loosers, and you're just gonna get yourselves killed!" Richie screams as he thrashes on Mike's and Stanley's arms.
"Stop it!" Beverly screams, throwing her arms out, as she stands inbetween Bill who was being with strained by Ben, and Richie. "This is what It wants It us to be devided!" She pleads looking between the boy's. Both boys break free of their captors, as they look to the girl. "We were all together, that's how we're still alive!" She continues.
Looking to the girl on the ground, her eyes soften. "Kelsey," her voice turns soft along with everyone's eyes. Immediately Richie's by her side, holding her close him.
"Keep them alive, that's what I'm planning on," helping the girl up, keeping her by his side.
"Wh-what if James is next, d-don't you want to stop that from happening?" Bill says, as Richie hits his shoulder with his own.
The once silent, broken girl turns around. Everyone's breath hitched their throats, knowing Bill went too far. Her face void of emotions as if to be a blank canvis. "Don't you ever say that again, cause I promise you," she leaves Richie's arms getting close to Bill's face. Her look said nothing, but she gave off a feeling, that could rival the one It had.
"If that happens, you will be the first one I'm feeding to that sick kidnapping, eating bitch," she spits her words, glaring to the younger boy. With a pull on her wrist, she turns around, leaving with Richie.
"You pushed her Bill, she already looked like she was breaking," Beverly says in a sad tone watching the two bike off. Kelsey pushing herself as close to Richie's body as she could.
