Chapter 1: Paper boats

Your POV.
I peered through Bill's door to make sure he was asleep.
It was around 6:00 in the morning
And it was raining. Two of my favorite things, being the early bird and rain!

It was about two years after My friend's little brother died, George was his name.
It was actually kind of like the same time right now when he disappeared.
All they found of him was the Paper boat Billy made him. And afterwards
When he found that George died
He shattered.
Blaming himself for the death of his brother.
He didn't know. And yet he felt it was his fault, sending George out with the paper boat he made.

You slipped out of Bill's room after checking up on him.

Outside you stood in front of the door adjusting your jacket's hood above your head while you looked out into the grey street with the boat in your hand.

You started to walk down the steps of the house and skipped by the streets stopping and finding a small river of access rainwater that gently flowed down the street curb. You smile and carefully laid the boat down into the stream. Upon letting go the boat traveled down the street. With every few feet you took, it seemed the boat was traveling faster and faster.
And soon you started to run to catch the boat before it would fall down a gutter or something.

And that's exactly what happened.
You tripped over the curb when you tried to snatch the boat from the water, but the small river was too fast
And as you looked up to see where the stolen paper boat went.... It was
Just a few centimeters away...
By the time you actually got to run for it, it was too late.... S.S Georgie has sunk down the gutter.
"NO!" You screamed running to the
Rain gutter.
You bent down to see where the boat landed and maybe you could reach in and pull it out.

But when you were close enough, two yellow glowing eyes and a ruby red smile appeared before you in the gutter.
You jump back when the thing startled you.
The smile gets bigger when seeing you do this.
You look down to the whatever it is.
Which appeared to have yellow glowing eyes, ruby red painted lips and painted scars? Starting from it's eyes to his mouth in the same color, with a unsettling wide smile with two of it's fangs poking out in the front.

"Heya (y/n)!" It says. Cheerfully

You gasp and squint a bit to it's face since you could only see his eyes and smile and a part of his left cheek.
You don't answer back. You were too stunned to speak.

"Aren't you gonna say 'Hello' back?" His smile grows wider and more twisted.
"H-hello..." You studder.
"How do you know my name? And who are you?" You ask

It wastes no time to tell you his deal.
"Why. I'm Pennywise! The DANCING clown! And you're (y/n)! I know you Because I know everyone here in Derry!" He chimes
You tilt your head a bit.
And look back to Bill's house in worry.
And back to the gutter which was occupied by a clown, you figited with your fingers a bit. Pennywise noticed this.

"Something's bothering you. Isn't there?" He pretends to look concerned
You nod a bit.
"Well. It seems to me you're looking for something if you were trying to come down here!"
Oh right. It saw you.

He smiles and raises it's hand and reveals the paper boat you stole from
George's room.
You try to snatch it in a fear, but Pennywise pulls back in time. And
Raises a finger "ah ah ah!"

"Please, Mr. Pennywise. I need that back... It's not mine!" You admit.

"Don't You know how wrong it is to take things that don't belong to you, (y/n)?" Pennywise scolds

"I'm sorry... I promise to never ever do it again. Please give it back."

Pennywise smirks and says
"Well then. if you come down here with me. I'll give it to you."
"Really?"
"Of course! All you have to do is climb down and I'll give it to you."
He then disappears into the sewers.

You bite your lip and looked to Bill's house.... Making the decision of going down a sewer with a stranger you just met and apparently knows you. Some how....
You sigh and start to climb down the gutter where the Clown was waiting for you.
