Well, today is just another boring day, of my boring life, at my boring school, and in my boring home. I thought as I slung the heavy backpack over my shoulder.
An involuntary sigh escaped my lips as I opened the door and began walking to school.
I held my head low as always and kept up a fast pace since I didn't wanna repeat the incident that happened with the Bowers gang.
The street wasn't very busy, it never really was in Derry, nothing ever happenes in this boring old town. The same old street, the same old houses, the same old people. I've lived here my entire life and I still hate every single person living in this shit hole.
Except for one group of losers.
Yes, I hang out with the losers club, Beverly has been my best friend since forever, and when i started hanging out with the losers, she automatically started hanging out with them too.
They're my escape from the horrible reality called real life.
All caught up in my own thoughts. I didn't completely failed to notice that someone had almost caught up to me and was desperately trying to get my attention.
Well, that was until I heard a strange human sounding noise, and decided to looke and see who this strange human being that wanted my attention was.
I look around just to see old Billy-boy basically sprinting after me, and quickly slow down my pace so he could catch up to me. And when he finally does I smile widely at the now completely exhausted boy walking beside me.
He immediately sparked up a conversation, talking about anything and everything on his mind. I tried to keep my focus on his words, but I couldn’t. I never could, not when he was as beautiful as he is.
So i give up trying to concentrate on his words and instread I concentrate on his face, admiring every feature of his face, from his gorgeous, green eyes to his adorably boopable nose and all the way up to his cute, dark brown hair.
Oh, how I adore that boy, but I don't t have a crush on him, that's for sure.
Okay, maybe I have a slight crush on the oldest Denborough boy, but nothing I can't handle.
"(Y-Y/N) are you ok-kay?" Bill stuttered out. Oh, shit he must’ve caught me staring
"Yeah, Bill. Why wouldn't I be?" I asked, trying my best to keep a straight face.
"You were s-s-staring" He chuckled lightly at my flustered state.
"I most certainly was not, how dare you accuse me of such actions," I said in a playful tone.
He raised his eyebrow and looked me up and down. “Mhm.”
He then looked me directly in the eye, squinting whilst making the weirdest face, and we burst out laughing.
It was something that happened quite a lot with us. We sometimes just look at each other and start laughing for no reason at all.
Bill smiled at me and took my hand in his, intertwining our fingers.
This is something Bill and I do more often than not. It was nice. Comforting when times were hard. Although it had sparked some rumors, at school, of us dating. That was of course not true. Not that I’d mind dating old Billy-boy here, but we’re definetely better off as friends. Definetely.
And so we just keep walking like that, fingers intertwined, me staring up at the perfect boy beside me, walking in step with each other.
I was so mesmerized by Bill that even fauiled to notice Beverly who’d walked up beside us.
"Jesus Christ, just date already!" She exclaimed, very loudly might I add.
Beverly could be quite... daft when it came to stuff like this. She knew of my feelings for Bill, and never once failed to mention them when we were together. Altough Bill never seemed to really notice it.
I really should just tell him. God, i want him to know so badly.
He and I looked at each other and just started laughing akwardly as we quickly let go of each other's hands and looked down. But it didn’t take long before I took his hand in mine again and dragged him behind the school building.
He looked confused as hell. Might as well tell him now, save the embarrassment for both of us.
"Soooo, I might have a tiny... gigantic crush on you, and I might have had it for a while now," I said awkwardly scratching the back of my neck.
"And I didn't tell you because I don't wanna ruin this great friendship we have, 'cause I know you don't feel the same... so can we just forget this ever happened?"
Bill looked at me confused, probably frightened.
"N-No, we c-can't!” I felt my heart break into a little million pieces. Who knew such a simple sentence could tear apart a heart so easily-
“(Y/N) I'm in love with you, I have been for so long, and knowing you feel the same, well, it makes me so happy. So (Y/N) (L/N) will you be please be mine?"
"No stutter?" I said looking into his eyes. "Of course, William"
He leaned in and akwardly captured my lips in the most-well, maybe not so innocent kiss.
After we both pulled away he bent down and whispered "Y-You know the whole l-losers club is hiding in the b-bush behind you ri-right?"
I nodded and laughed slightly, knowing full well Beverly had collected them all as soon as Bill and I left together.
