The next day

I woke up earlier than usual as all night I have been struggling to sleep as I was keep getting flashbacks of my encounter with the haunting clown,
I looked on the floor at the side of the bed to see Richie still asleep. I quietly got out of bed and sat downstairs. An hour later Richie got up.
"Hey you ok it's 7am" he said in a raspy voice as he just woke up.
"Yeah just struggled to go to sleep last night" I explained.
"Want me to make breakfast to cheer you up?" He asked.
"Yes please" I smiled.
After we ate breakfast the phone rang, I answered it,
"Hello"
"Hey M-Mollie" Bill said
"What's up?" I asked
"I need y-you and Richie to meet at B-B-Beverly's house in 20 minutes something has h-happened" he explained in a worried tone,
"Ok we will meet you there I will tell Rich now"
"Okay s-see you there"
"Bye Billy boy."

Me and the others all pulled up on our bikes to see Bev already waiting outside her house,
"You made it I... I need to show you something" Beverly said
""What is it?" Ben asked
"More than we saw at the quarry" Richie joked
""Shut up! Just shut up Richie!" Eddie snapped.
"My dad would kill me if he found out I had boys in the apartment" Bev explained
"Then w-we'll leave a lookout" Bill suggested
"R-Richie stay here"
"Whoa,whoa,whoa! What if her dad comes back?" Richie asked offended by him always being on lookout.
"Do what you always do start talking" Stan said,
"Good point" I agreed Richie has always been good at distracting people or talking people out of doing stuff
"It is a gift" he said.

We all walked into Beverly's apartment,
"In there" Bev pointed at the bathroom door
"What's in there?" I asked
"You'll see" she said
"Are you taking us to your bathroom? I just want you to know that 89% of the worst accident in homes are caused in bathrooms a-and, I mean, that's where all the bacteria and fungi are and it's not a really sanitary place" Eddie blurted out, he was cut off by Bill then opening the door to Bev's bathroom covered in blood
" oh shit" I gasped
"I knew it" Eddie gagged
"You see it?" Beverly asked
"Yes" Eddie muttered
"What happened in here?" Stan asked,
"My dad couldn't see it. I though I might me crazy" Bev explained
"Well if you're crazy, then we're all crazy" Ben replied.
"W-we can't leave it like this" Bill said
We all started to clean the bathroom all together, I was cleaning the bathtub out with Bill I looked over to see Eddie with his inhaler in his mouth as this has got to be one of his biggest nightmares, I also noticed Ben keep looking at Beverly too which it was obvious for me to see he had a crush on her,
Everyone left the room except me and Bill
"Bill can I ask you something?" I asked with a little bit of a nervous expression
"S-sure"
"Do you like Bev?" I questioned
"I mean s-she is pretty but I don't have a c-crush on her what m-makes you think that?" His response brought my nerves to ease a little
"I just saw the way you looked at her and I just wanted it to know that's all" I tried to play it little cool but I could feel a blush grow slowly on my face,
"Oh o-ok I was just wondering maybe you would like to go to the movies with m-me sometime" I saw him blush a little which caused me to smile
"Are you asking me on a date William Denbrough?" I teased
"M-maybe" he chuckled
"I would love that" I smiled even more
We stood there in silence for a few minutes unknowing what to say to each other
"We should meet the others outside" I said to him
"Y-yeah let's go"

We both walked outside her house and Richie was the first one to noticed,
"What have you two been up to? Rubbing coochies with each other" he smirked,
"Beep beep Richie" I said
We all got on our bikes and started riding down the street
"No, I love being your personal doorman, really . Could you idiots have taken any longer?" Richie complained
"Ok right shut up Richie" Eddie said
"Yeah shut up Richie" I agreed
"Oh, okay trash the trash mouth. I get it. Hey I wasn't the one scrubbing the bathroom floor and imaging that her sink went all Eddie's mom's vagina on Halloween" Richie ranted
"She didn't imagine it" Bill stopped pushing his bike, we all then stopped too.
"I s-s-saw something too" he said
"You saw blood too?" Stanley asked
"Not blood. I saw G-G-Georgie" Bill replied,
This left me in shock as well as the others,
"It seemed so real, I mean it seemed like him, but there was this..."
"The clown" Eddie and I both said in unison as we both looked at each other in shock,
"Yeah I saw him too" Eddie said
"Me too" I said
I looked to see Ben also nodding and Stanley too
"Wait can only virgins see this stuff? Is that why I'm not seeing this shit" Richie asked.
The conversation paused as we heard distant shouting as we all looked in the direction of the shouting,
"Oh shit, that's Belch Huggins' car we should probably get out of here" Eddie panicked.
"Yeah" Richie agreed
"Wait isn't that the h-homeschooled kids bike?" Bill asked as he pointed to the bike
"Yeah that's Mike's" I said
"We have to help him" Beverly said
"We should?" Richie asked
"Yeah" I agreed, we all dropped our bikes and all ran to where the shouting was coming from.
