"Blood is thicker than water" | Eddie Kaspbrak x Reader

Deadlights

You were running through the tunnels, trying to find which way your father went. You felt an impulse to take the left tunnel, so you did. Big mistake. There was a large hole in the bottom of the tunnel and you fell down into another chamber.

"Y/N! Oh my God are you okay?" You lifted your head to see Mike and Richie lifting you up. You were in the main cistern chamber, the children's bodies floating above you. You always hated this chamber. You glanced around to see Ben and Bill pulling Beverly down.

"Y/N!" Ben yelled. "What's wrong with her? What do we do?" Ben frantically looked at you, tears coming from his eyes.

"I- I'm not sure Ben. I'm sorry." You responded, looking down. Ben turned to face Beverly, pulling her face towards his. He kissed her. He pulled away and her eyes began to flutter open. You felt a hand wrap around yours and Eddie's soft kiss on your cheek.

"Of course. Only love can conquer fear." You spoke to yourself.

You turned to face Eddie, a soft smile on his cheeks. You could tell he was scared, but he was putting on a brave face.

"I love you." You whispered to him. You placed your foreheads to touch against each other.

"But you're not Georgie" Bills voice rang through the chamber, followed by a gun shot.

"I- I'm so so sorry Bill. He's a monster. Georgie didn't deserve this. And neither do you."

The little boy began to shake, his limbs growing longer. His outfit began to change into that of a clown's. You heard Eddie's breath hitch. He didn't have his inhaler.

Your father finally took his full form and smiled a horrible smile at you.

"Fuck off dad" you growled.

He raised his arm and flung you across the cistern. You heard your name being called. You felt your back hit a wall and your fell, deeper, down the other tunnel in the ground to the lower chambers.
