where do i begin?
i met eddie when we were teenagers, he was everything to me.
he was my first kiss, my first 'i love you', he was my whole world.
we got married, adopted two children, bought a beautiful house.
we were going to grow old together.
that was supposed to be the plan, 𝘳𝘪𝘨𝘩𝘵?

it all started with a call from his old friend mike.
they knew each other from their hometown derry.
they defeated this crazy killer clown and honestly, i didn't believe him at first.
mike had called to say that stupid clown was back, and it was terrorizing derry again.
i couldn't let him go, it was too dangerous and i don't even know what i would do if i lost him.
but, eddie had promised to come back if needed, and he kept that promise for 27 years, i couldn't let him break it now.
so he flew to derry and met up with his old friends.
he wouldn't let me go, even though i begged him.
he said it was too dangerous, 𝘩𝘰𝘸 𝘥𝘪𝘥 𝘩𝘦 𝘦𝘹𝘱𝘦𝘤𝘵 𝘮𝘦 𝘵𝘰 𝘭𝘪𝘴𝘵𝘦𝘯 𝘵𝘰 𝘩𝘪𝘮 𝘸𝘩𝘦𝘯 𝘪 𝘶𝘴𝘦𝘥 𝘵𝘩𝘦 𝘴𝘢𝘮𝘦 𝘦𝘹𝘤𝘶𝘴𝘦?
so a few days after he left, i dropped the kids off at my mom's and flew to derry to check in.
the second i landed i got a call from mike, 𝘸𝘦𝘪𝘳𝘥.
"hey y/n, we need to talk, it's about eddie." he says.
he sounded sad and my heart broke.

i ran outside to find a cab to take me to derry.
as i was waiting i heard, "did you hear about that man who died? tragic really."
"oh yes, they don't even know how. i think his name was edward or something."

a time skip of 45 minutes because the taxi driver decided to take the long route. 🙄

i see them all sitting at the quarry, surrounding richie who was in tears.
i knew him and richie were close, so that wasn't a good sign at all.
the hidden nerves and panic that built up in me finally burst out.
i started sobbing uncontrollably.
i felt someone pull me into a hug as the tears were flowing down my face.
"y/n listen we are so sorry we couldn't do anything to save hi-" starts mike.
"𝐬𝐭𝗼𝐩. this isn't your fault. it's that fucking clown's fault. it took away everything, ABSOLUTELY EVERYTHING AWAY FROM ME. I'M DONE. i-i can't do this." i say.
"y/n it's going to be alright i pro-" starts mike again.
"no mike, y/n is right. i-it ruined our lives, even to-took away a few of them. geo-georgie, stan, eds. i-i, don't know why we think we beat it, it will always come back." says bill.
"bill don't say that, we took him down the first time and we did it again. it's our duty to protect derry now." says mike.
"NO MIKE, i tried. i tried fighting it for georgie. and yea maybe we did put it back in it's damn hole for 27 years, but it took things from us, things we won't ever be able to replace. i'm going home, i need to get away from this place." says bill.
"bill," i start, "please be safe."
"thank you y/n, i'll be fine anywhere but here." he says and walks away.
i start to sob again, all the thoughts of eddie coming back.
"he's actually gone? you saw him?" i ask.
"yea y/n, he was stabbed, he's gone. i'm sorry." says bev.
