Love Together

I changed in the bathroom and went back to Richie, he was sitting on his bed playing with his PS vita. As I walked in he looked up at me "R-Richie?" "Yeah?" "Does.. Does Billy love me?" Richie looked at me wide eyed "Why do you ask?" "I just have been thinking a lot.. and I can't stress it enough.." "Sam.. Bill was quite.. Bill was a wreck.. I would say he loves you pretty damn much.." I nodded and sat down "Now when you say wreck-" "Sam, he wasn't talking to anyone! Then his hair grew out and-" "D-Don't explain anymore.." I said. Richie nodded and put his Vita down "My mom gave me some blankets and pillows to give to you" he said setting them on the ground. I looked at him "Thanks Rich.. I'm sorry I sprung up on you guys like this.." "Its fine.... We haven't heard from IT lately" I turned around to him "W-What?" Richie chuckled.

Then he looked at the ground "You probably forgot about it... The clown... That's been killing kids like us?" "Oh..." "Nice.." Richie said shaking his head. I frowned "This isn't my fault! I knew you wouldn't want me here..." his eyes widened "Sam..." "I'm going to bed.." I muttered and settled my bed. I laid down and shuffled the blankets and laid my head angrily. Richie sighed and went to turn off the lights "Sam... I'm sorry..." I rolled my eyes as everything became dark and I drifted off to sleep.

*The Next Day, Walking To The Quarry*

Bill glanced at me and I looked at the scattered rocks on the ground, I still didn't know where we were going. Once we were walking up a hill, I gained the confidence "Where are we going?" "The Q-Quarry" Bill answered with a smile. I nodded still wondering what this Quarry was about. We got to the top of the hill and everyone began to strip, I squeaked and didn't know what to do. Bill put his hand on my shoulder, I turned around to him "I-I-It's ok Sam! T-This is o-our swimming p-pool!" I walked over to the edge of the cliff to be met with a clean pond or lake. I turned around to all of my friends in their underwear, I blushed "Am I supposed to do the same thing?" I asked "Most likely" I nodded shyly and went behind them and began to strip.

I looked up to them to see Bev jump and everyone staring at me. I scoffed and they turned around and blushed, they started to jump except for Bill and I. I blushed "S-Sam?" "I don't know what to do.." "I-I can j-j-just j-jump with you" I nodded and we went to the edge. We held hands and began to jump but I screamed and held onto Billy, we hugged and jumped. But the jump was painful and my legs began to hurt, I swam to the surface and began to laugh and so did everyone else. Ben looked else where, but Bill and I were next to each other. The rest of the time was filled with swimming, splashing and loads of fun.
