The Color Barrier~Reddie Au

Fourteen

The last person to have a nightmare in the losers club is Ben.

His consists of Beverly.

The two have a picnic on a cliff. (It's flat at the top of that makes sense)

"Thank you Ben. This is really fun." "Anything for you Beverly. I uh have a question." "Ask away." The two stand up and walk to the edge of the cliff to watch the sun set.

"I Uh, wanted to know if. If you wanted to be my girlfriend?" "Of course Ben."

She smiles as she cups his face, leaning in to kiss him.

Their lips connect, right as they do Beverly's foot slipping on the ledge.

The two go to reach for each other but it too late. He watches her face as she screams. Pure fear.

Finally he wakes up, sitting up quickly. Tensing up at the thought of it happening.

Beverly had a faint memory of falling but not knowing why or who is there.

B: my nightmare had you in it.
S: so did mine. It scared me a lot
B: it was my fault... I didn't watch where I was going. We crashed into a pole.
S: baby, it's fine I'm here with you. I'm okay.
B: I know but it scared me. A lot
S: I couldn't save you. We lived together and there was a fire.

Bill forgot that they both had rings on in his nightmare, which made it completely worse.

B: we were married
S: aw :)
B: I wish...
S: so do I. But we can't.
B: it's to early anyways

Both boys hated hearing that but it's true.

*Later that Night
Richie day in the living room, listening to his own thoughts before they were interrupted by someone else's.

Richie I miss you so much, I told you I would be back. All of the others said they would come over later.

Who are you? Please tell me.

The voice echoing through his head like theres a speaker there.

Richie learned last night that hearing the voice meant he's about to fall asleep. Standing up slowly he stretches trying not to fall asleep. He walks to the bathroom to wash his face.

Once starting to dry his face he looks in the mirror. Some type of tubes in his nose, like the ones that help you breathe. His eye starts to swell, turning a black color. His ribs start to hurt. Looking down his wrist in a sling.

"No!"  He runs out of the house, towards the clubhouse.
