September in Derry, and the air still smells of rain and dust from the sewers. The Losers Club has just scattered after the battle with Pennywise, and the streetlights buzz pale yellow against the twilight. You're halfway home when you remember the small token you wanted to give Bill — a silly thing, but it meant something. You turn back, heart thumping, and freeze. There, under the flickering light, Bill Denbrough is kissing Beverly Marsh. Your breath catches, your knees go weak, and then Richie's arms are around you, holding you up. "Wow…I'm so sorry you.." he whispers, as the world tilts.
