Y/n's POV:

" I can't believe we just killed that clown.. "
Richie spoke up
as he fixed his glasses.
Leading us to let out a chuckle.

" C - Can you walk, Y/n? "
Bill asked me as we walked out the gate.
" Well... "
I was about to answer him when Stanley,
" Eddie can't help her
all the way home? Can he? "
Stanley chuckled but he made his point.
He's not wrong...
" He's right... But uh no not really. "
I answered Bill, as Stan let out a chuckle.
" Yeah, how are you going bike? "
Bev asked me.
" Um, I probably won't bike? But
I'll use my bike for support, so I'll just be walking... "
I said each of us picked up our bikes.
" You sure Y/n? "
Eddie re - assured, as he helped me walk over
to my bike.
" Yeah.. "
I smiled as we were walking with our bikes
on our side.
" Hey I know a shortcut! "
Richie spoke up.
" Wh - Whe - Where? "
Bill stuttered asking Richie.
" Just follow. "
Richie said as we took his " shortcut "

We passed
through the barrens, the bridge then we some how
arrived to town.
" See shortcut. "
My brother smiled proudly.
" God damnit Richie. "
I groaned.
We stopped for a minute to see our reflection
on one of the shops
that had a glass window.
" Boy do I look awful.. "
I spoke, fixing my hair.
I looked to everyone else to see their clothes
covered in dirt a few wounds here
and there.
Especially Eddie tho,
since he had now dried up vomit all over him.

" I can't go home like this guys..
My mom will kill me. "
Eddie spoke up.
" Dude, you've been gone for 24 straight hours.
Your face is definitely on a milk carton
by now.
Also, that puke smells worse than
your mom's slippers. "
Richie added.
" Oh, shut up, Richie! "
Beverly said as we started turning our bikes,
knowing all of us were so over my brother..
" Yeah, shut up Richie. "
I scoffed continuing to walk with them.
" Okay, first of all, my mom's slippers smell like potpourri, asshole. "
Eddie said in defense.
" No, they don't. "
Stan added as we continued walking.
" Yes, they do. And, also
how would you know what they smell like
in the first place? "
Eddie scoffed.
" Can we just keep it quiet, please, until we get home? "
Mike asked us but of course Eddie wouln't listen.
" There's potpourri all over my bathroom... "
Eddie added while he talked over Mike.
" Eddie, Potpourri is literally a French word, meaning " rotten pot. "
Ben said causing me to let a laugh out
" I knew there was something rotten about it! "
Richie said excitingly.

Eddie then started talking about more scents in his house that isn't
" rotten pot "
After walking and talking, we made to each and everyone's houses and dropped them off.

Hope I can walk properly by tomorrow!!!

Eddie's POV:

We lastly dropped Stanley off,
so it was
Richie, Y/n and I left.
We were already near our houses since Stan lived pretty close by.
" Hey Y/n, race you to the house!
See ya Ed's! "
Richie laughed as he got in his bike and started bailing to the house.
" Bye Rich! "
I shouted.
" God, he is soo stupid. "
Y/n chuckled looking at him from a distance.
" Why? "
I asked her.
" I can't bike, Eddie. Let alone run there. "
She replied, gesturing to her leg.
" Oh right. "
I answered looking down.

It was silent for a few minutes while we walked,
but I spoke up.
" Y/n? "
" Hm? "
She answered me.
" I- I didn't mean... I- "
I stuttered my words.
" Didn't mean? "
I inhaled a huge amount of air.
" I didn't mean what I said in
my house yesterday, as well as outside "
I said letting out a deep breathe and looking to Y/n
hoping she'd answer.

Y/n's POV:

I looked down and let out a sigh.
Since I remembered what happens earlier..
I totally forgot about it till he
brought it up.
All the words he said and well, shouted, came flooding back
to my head...

( Sorry for the quick change of POV.. ehe )

Eddie's POV:

" Y/n, let me explain. "
I asked her again when she suddenly
stopped walking.
" I forgive you. "
I heard those words come out from her mouth.
" You what? "
" I- I forgive you, Eddie "
" You do?! "
" Do you want me to say I don't, Kasbrak? "
" No no no no no, I- "
" Don't make me count to 3 waiting for a hug...."
She said in a sing-song-tone
as she cut me off.

" 1....... 2...... "
She started counting and right away
I dropped my bike
and rushed to hug her, we almost lost balance.
I guess I hugged her a little too harsh?
We hugged for about
10 seconds max.

Yes I counted... I mean who doesn't??

" God I missed you Y/n "
I said.
Oh shit.
" You what? "
She asked me.
" I-I missed you.? "
I replied not knowing what she'll say back...

" I missed you too, loser.
And Richie's right, that puke smells worse that your mom's slippers.
Please wash it off?? Especially
in your hair. "
She asked, pushing my hair back a little and started walking off to her house.
" Yeah... Y/n! Wait up!! "
I shouted picking my bike up and stopped
at her house.
" Cya Kasbrak! "
She shouted as she speeded her pace to
her house.
Guess I'll see her tomorrow.

Y/n's POV:

I rushed immediately up to the bathroom
but it was locked.
God that hurt!
" Still in here! "
I heard Richie shout from inside.
" Oh, okay! Well hurry up! "
I shouted back as I went in the room.
While waiting I check my wound on my leg...
It really did look disgusting,
with all the dried up and new blood on it....

After an hour
or so, Richie finally came in.
" What took you so long? "
I asked.
" I took a bath, duh. "
He responded pointing to his hair.
" Also, we need to get your leg checked out. "
Richie added as
he hung his towel in the closet.
" Oh no no no, I don't want mom to know. "
I shook my head.
" Hm, good point... I'll get scolded cause of it. "
" No kidding. "
" Fine, we'll invite Eddie over later. "
" What?? Why? "
" He knows what to do, he knows the wound stuff and shit.
Like what he did to Ben. "
" That's different, that was from Bowers.
This, THISSS
is from a demonic clown that almost
killed us earlier.! "
I yelled as I gestured to my leg.

" Okay! Okay! Calm Down!
But it's Eddie, and he'll know what shit to do
with that gross wound of yours "
He laughed.
" Ughh fine! "
I shouted as I got my towel and clothes for the day.
I was about to walk out the door when my
mom stopped me.
" Where were you both? "
She asked us and immediately hid my bloody leg, while Richie walked next to me.

She's Drunk

I looked to Richie and well..
" Uhhh we had- "
" -a sleepover! At um Bill's house. "
Richie cut me off.
" Why didn't you guys tell me?! "
She asked angrily.
" Bill's landline broke, so we uh
couldn't use the phone. "
Richie smiled.
" Well you both better be telling the truth.
And Y/n?? Why are you all bruised and
covered in filth?? "
She asked me.
" I uhmmm- "
" We we're playing outside, and she fell... "
My brother covered up.
" Hm, okay.... Well take a bath,
you look disgusting... "
She snarled at us as she then walked off to her room.
" Well someone's "sober"... "
I chuckled as Richie laughed along.
I took a shower,
and I took quite a long time, cause I had to carefully rinse my wound and avoid touching it at all cost...
I carefully changed into my pajamas
and went to the room...
Richie suggested we should wrap it since
it was still bleeding ..
He helped me bandage the bite marks,
afterwardssss,
I took a nap, since we were defeating a clown the whole morning.
