Life in this hospital was becoming normal for me.
The doctors recently told me that I'm almost good to go home and I'm excited to be leaving the hospital and being myself again.
As I fix my side table, Stanley walked in.
"Oh Stan. How are you?"
He smiled, sitting next to me in the chair.
"I'm good, the doctor told me all about you possibly being able to leave soon."
I nodded in agreement, making him smile even more.
I looked at him, "And you seem excited I'm gonna be leaving the hospital."
He looked at me, "Oh yeah, I cannot wait to see you being your old self again and laughing."
I smiled and chuckled, "Same. Being here's been nice though."
Stan looked at me, he seemed concerned.
"Did you see Pennywise at all?"
Come to think of it I haven't actually.

I looked at the floor, "No I haven't heard from him in a while, and it's been about a week now."
Stanley sighed. "I don't like you hanging out with him, he's the reason you're in this hospital."
I agreed, but at the same time I liked hanging out with Pennywise and sharing memories with him.
He's just naturally aggressive is all.

Before I could continue, a nurse walked in.
"Hi there, are you Y/N?"
I nodded, "Yeah what is it?"
The nurse smiled, holding a clipboard, "Oh you can leave now, I just need you to sign this paper signalling that you feel okay and you're ready to leave."
I smiled as she handed me the clipboard.
Stan looked at me, "What is it?"
I read the questions and looked at him, "Oh it's just some questions about my health is all. She wants to know whether or not I have health problems or conditions."
Stan nodded and waited for me to finish.
Once done, I asked him to hand it to the nurse and he grabbed it and left.

I sat alone in the room for a while, thinking about what Stanley said.
I haven't seen Pennywise in so long, it's been a while.
This week he hadn't shown any signs of caring or bothering to visit me. Like as if he hated me.
Does he hate me?
I didn't want to think about that.

Stanley walked back in, "They said you can pack up your bags and head out now."
I stood up from the bed, and went over to the table and packed up my small amount of things.
"Okay let's go now, I have everything."
I walked out with Stanley and said goodbye to the staff that cared for me while I walked out.

Once outside, Stan looked at me and sighed, "Well you're okay. The nurse said you may have some back pain and if your cuts reopen to just so back to them. But that shouldn't happen though."
I sighed, breathing in the fresh air outside.
"I am so happy to just be moving outside and not stuck inside that stuffy little room."
Stan nodded and walked with me back to my house.

I opened my front door and saw the lamp in the living room was cleaned up and the house was cleaned.
"What the- Who cleaned while I was gone?"
Stan rubbed his neck, "Oh well, I suggested to the Losers we clean your house while you go to the hospital. I didn't want you to be cleaning all the time."
I looked at Stan and smiled, "Thank you. That checked off one thing on my list."
His face turned red as he looked at me, "Oh no problem.."
I walked around the house, observing the work of the Losers.
"You guys did good though, even cleaned the doorknobs!"
Stanley smirked, "That's Eddie who did all that."
I laughed and walked inside my room which smelt like cherry blossoms.
"Woah it smells good in here.."
Stanley smiled, "Oh I wanted to get you something sweet smelling for your room. I spray some air freshener in all the rooms."
I breathed in and out, the house smelled so good, for these being 13 and 14 year olds, they sure clean better than any adult I know of.

A few hours later, Stanley decided to leave and head home.
I waved him goodbye and continued to watch him walk away.
Once he shrunk out of distance, I walked back inside sighing.
It's been a while since I've been alone in my house, I should see what I can do.

I walked into my living room and decided to turn on Netflix and catch up on some shows of mine.
I flicked on the TV and ran to the kitchen, grabbing some food.
I took some leftover noodles and iced tea and ran into the living room and curled up on the couch.
I clicked on my show and started watching it, eating my noodles and drinking some tea.
Suddenly it started to thunder, really loudly too.
I looked out the window and saw the rain hit the ground outside, making me curl up even more in my blanket.
I felt nervous, as if someone was watching me.
