eddie kasprack X reader // IT chapter 1

Y/n POV
I look at Eddies hand interwined with mine. I have only dreamed of this moment. I look up at him and smile. And he smiles back his warm cute smile. The same smile that makes my heart melt. I then see the losers behind us and suddenly Ben throws a rock at Henry.
"ROCK WAR!" Richie says and we all pick up rocks and start throwing them at the bowers gang. I stop to help Mike crawl over to us and then proceed. But then get hit in the head with a big ass rock. Ouch that hurt. I'm on the ground thinking about whether I have good life decisions when I feel a soft hand on my head where I got hit. I open my eyes to see Eddie and I a few inches away from each other. I could feel his breath on my lips. It so different than Henry's. It was better. Suddenly we were getting pulled up and away. As I'm getting dragged away I hear Richie saying,
"Go blow your mum you mullet wearing asshole."
I burst out laughing but then get a head rush so I stop.

Time skip.

Still y/ns POV
We are walking in a field when we hear Mike speak up,
"You shouldn't have done that, now he's going to be going after you."
"Oh, bowers? He's always after us." Says Richie scoffing.
"And y/n we need to have a serious conversation."
"Why?"
"In private"
"Fine"
"So, homeschool, welcome to the losers club." Richie said to him.
We all walked to the festival and sat down on the bench.
"My grandfather says this town is cursed. Everything in this town is caused by one thing. An evil thing that feeds off the people of Derry."
"But it can't be one thing" Stan says. "We all seen something different." I nod, thinking of when I saw Eddie and Stan. Maybe it can shapeshift? That would explain how it changed from the clown to Stan so fast.
"Maybe, it knows what scares us most, and that's way we see" Mike said. Then it clicked.
"Guys!" I say standing up. They all looked at me.
"It's a shapeshifter. It turns into our greatest fear. And then uses it against us. Thats why it showed Eddie and Stan, and they forgot all about my existence. Because thats my worst fear. Being forgotten and being alone!" They all nodded.
"I saw a leper"
"What the bloody hell is that?" I asked.
"He was like a walking infection."
Me and Richie looked to each other and smirked.
"Zombie" Eddie Looked at us unamused.
"But you didn't." Stan said
"Because it isn't real. None of this is. None of this makes any sense. theyre like bad dreams."
"Oh yeah stanly. Except in bad dreams you don't actually die and you can actually wake up from them. In bad dreams your actually safe in your bed. These are not not bad dreams stanly. We are in danger, even in our own houses!" I yell at him.
"Y/ns right, I know the difference between a bad dream and real life. So we're all afraid of something."
"Got that right." Richie said looking back. I was the only one in the group what knew Richie's biggest fear was.
"Right rich, what are you afraid of?" Eddie said.
"Clowns" we both replied.
