Honestly, I have always enjoyed school. I love learning... hm... maybe that's why i'm called a nerd, anyway. I've never really not wanted to go to school, or complained about having to go.. until today.
Last night, I found out my cousin Christian went missing, and if that's not enough to make it a bad day, on my way to school as i was walking by the library I swear i saw a fucking clown. Not just someone dressed up as a circus clown all funny and sweet. No. A scary ass freaking looking egg headed clown.
Clowns are literally my biggest fear, i'm not scared of the dark, spiders, not even death. But for some reason clowns scare the hell out of me. When one stares you down in the middle of the street and waves his crooked ass hand at you, trust me it's hard not to be scared. Something about this clown just wasn't right, I can't really explain it. It knocked me off my normal self.
Today I sat in the back of the classroom and probably didn't say more than two words. Which for me is saying A LOT. I also strayed away from my friends. Well "friends", they are just the people who talk to me in school. No one actually talks to me outside of school. Either way i enjoy the company during school. Not today, today i left myself to my own company. Sad thing is I don't really think anyone noticed.
I just can't shake the feeling of seeing that clown. I feel like it's watching me 24/7, waiting to lure me into some dark place & go crazy. I'm honestly worried it's gonna become a serious problem,like some crazy phobia. I am probably just being paranoid.... i don't know.

Eddies POV
"Mom, I'm going out with my friends, I will see you later."
"Be back before dinner time love bug, and don't get too dirty!"
"I won't !" I yell as i'm leaving my house.
I have to meet Ritchie & Bill at the sewers, Bill said it is important. Crap, I forgot my medication. I run back to my house and strap on my black fanny pack. Cool, all ready to go. I get back on my bike and head to the sewers.
"Ed's, what took you so long ? was your mommy giving you a bath?" Ritchie asks me.
"Shut uo Ritchie, i just forgot my medication."
"I t-thought those were b-b-bullshit." Bill says.
"My last ones were, but not these ones... anyways what is so important?"
"I-I don't k-k-know exactly w-what i saw b-but i swear i saw p-p-pennywise." bill says
"Shut your fucking mouth. not this again, thought we killed that son of a bitch." Ritchie says angrily.
"Bill don't mess around, I'm gonna have a freaking asthma attack." I say while wheezing a bit.
"L-L-Like i said i-i don't really k-know." Bill says
"How do you not know??? you either did or you didn't, it's not like-"
Ritchie stops and looks at me.
"Shut up wheezy calm down."
By this time I already have my inhaler out trying to balance my breathing.
"I'm freaking out, I don't know if you remember or not but we all almost died last summer! This thing took Georgie! So don't tell me to calm down Ritchie!"
"Jeez, stop your bitching" ritchie smirks at me.
"Bill where is everyone else you told them to come right?"
"y-yeah , mike and b-b-ben have to s-study and bev i-is at court w/ h-her new f-f-family."
"What about stan?" I ask
"h-he didn't a-a-answer his mom s-said he h-hasn't been home s-since l-l-last night. "
"Well where the fuck is he then?" Ritchie asks
"Guys this isn't good. oh god. i'm gonna pass out." I say
"h-have you guys h-heard anything that c-c-could help us?"
"no, what about you ed's?"
I'm trying to think but my brain is scattered. I can't think straight. Where is stan? What's going on ? Is this a dream? Then i remember something. Oh god.
