"Shit" I barely got the word out as I fell down hitting my knee hard. I heard Richie's laughter as I hit the ground. "Oh shut up, Tozier" I sneered playfully.

"You know what that means" he came up to me grinning his ass off and carrying his board in his hand. I got up and grabbed mine before turning back to Richie.

"How about just for today" I half begged him. He only shook his head stubbornly "we agreed whoever could land a kickflip over all six stairs the other person has to buy them food for the rest of the week" he gushed, bragging at his victory.

"I've done it before I don't know why I didn't make it this time" I said thinking back to a few weeks ago when I came here to escape my shitty home.

"Why don't you try it one more time if you get it then I'll buy you food on Friday" he told me going to sit down on his board. I nodded getting on my board and skating over to the set of six stairs.

"OK I'll try" I took the challenge knowing that if I try hard enough I'll be able to do it again. "You don't believe me, do you?" I asked looking back at him. He just shrugged and nodded at me as a sign to get going down the stairs.

I shook myself out and pushed my body forward. I gained confidence as I gained speed the releasing feeling of wind rushing through my hair as my skateboard ran nicely over the smooth pavement of the skatepark.

I was right in front of the staircase when I dropped my left foot and kicked my right forward. I felt the board leave my feet and then almost to quickly the amazing feeling stopped. But it came back again when I landed on my board perfectly.

I smiled doing a quick turn to start heading back to where Richie was still sitting. "Told you I could do it" I yelled at him as I pushed myself back to where he was. I did a quick pop shuvit before jumping off my board pushing my toes down on the front and grabbing the board as it came up behind me.

"Who said you couldn't" he asked. I rolled my eyes at him. "Your eyes did I could tell you didn't think I could" I answered dropping my board and sitting on it like Richie was.

"Whaaaaaat" the sarcasm in his voice was like poison, "I would never" he responded. "Well fuck you" I said grabbing my water bottle from beside me.

"Only if I get to fuck you" he winked at me raising his eyebrows at a quick lace afterwards. "Beep beep trashmouth" I laughed causing his to smirk. "You know you love it when I talk dirty" he kept going.

"As a matter of fact I don't, believe it or not-""-I choose not to" he interrupted me, which caused a glare to appear on my features. "Go away" I groaned pushing his shoulder lightly.

"You don't really want me to leave babe your just saying that" he said overconfidently. "To be honest I don't know why I am friends with you" I laughed getting up from my board. "But I do have to go so I'll see you tomorrow at school, yeah?" I told him picking my board up.

He nodded grinning at me. We didn't need ro talk to k ow what that meant. I got a running start before jumping onto my board. I did a quick ollie landing on a metal rail and doing at least a 10 second forward grind before continuing to race Richie around out of the skatepark.

I dodged a few more obsticles did a few more jumps and shit like that before exiting the park. I got onto the road and was pretty far ahead of Richie. Because of that I decided to be cocky and do a few more tricks until he was close enough to be a threat to my winning spot.

I got to my house in no time. My house was only a few down from Richie's house but mine came first so usually we race to my house Because I never want to pass my house and then have to go back.

I did a few tricks on the spot while I waited for Richie to get to my house. "I won" I said when he finally got close enough to hear me. "Fuck off" was all he said. "Feisty" I laughed. "Just how you like it right, hot stuff" he said winking once again.

"Would you stop that?" I shouted at him still kind of laughing. "Stop what, sweetheart?" He asked perposly annoying me. I rolled my eyes at him for the millionth time today. "I'll stop this when you stop that" he said gesturing to my face. I knew he meant my eye roll when he did that.

"Go home, Richard" I told him perposly using his full name to annoy him because that's what we always do, annoy the shit out of each other. "Don't forget to bring your money for my food, Kathrine" he reminded me smiling before hopping on his board and riding of to his house. I glared "it's Kate" I waved at him running off.

I walked up my driveway quickly running and hiding my skateboard in the bushes around my house. I made sure that I couldn't see any sign of a skateboard being there before walking up to my front porch and opening my door. My knee was starting to hurt from when I kept falling on it attempting to to a kickflip down all six stairs.

I tried to be as quiet as possible hoping not to be heard by my brother or my dad. My dad is the sheriff in Derry so he should be a good dad. But he's not. He abuses me and Henry and when Henry abuses me he does nothing sometimes he just watches and sometimes he just doesn't even care.

But knowing my luck there he was standing in all his 'glory' Henry Bowers himself with an unpleasant look resting on his face. His blonde mullet looked pretty messy but that's nothing new and neither was the look of muderous rage painting his facial features.

"Where the fuck where you" he seethed out venom laced in his deep voice. I coward back, away from the monster standing in front of me. "You piece of shit" he finished before grabbing a handful of my hair and dragging me to my room. All I could think at that very moment was:

I'm gonna die....
