Two months later;

"I didn't think it'd go by so quickly." Richie admits, watching Y/N and Bill's parents pack the last of their things into the moving truck. Bill nods, "Me either. It felt like I blinked and it was over." She mumbles, leaning her head onto Stanley's shoulder as Bill sighs. "I'm really gonna miss you guys." Richie admits, looking down at the ground before back up at the twins. "No way, the Richie Tozier is gonna miss us?' She asks, laughing as he kicks a rock in her direction, "I'm kidding. We'll miss you too, all of you." She gives a sad smile, "Beverly left and now you guys too? Double heartbreak." Ben mumbles, Mike nodding in agreement.

"Yeah, I might have almost gotten killed by that clown because of you two, but- You guys were, and still are some great friends. Glad to have met you guys." Mike heaves out, smiling up at the two.

"Bill! Y/N! Fifteen minutes!" Sharon, their mother, yells out. "Okay!" Bill yells back, turning back around with a frown. "Shit, I'm really gonna fucking miss you guys." She whispers, blinking her tears down her face as Bill puts a hand on her shoulder for comfort. Stanley walks over first, throwing his arms around her. Richie follows next, then Bill, Mike, Ben and Eddie last who complained about germs, but wrapped his arms around everyone anyways, knowing it would probably be the last time they ever got to do that. "I love you all." She whispered, earning a few laughs and "We love you too's"

"Thank you f-for everything." Bill gives a small smile as everyone slowly pulls away, "I still hate you." Stanley says with a smile, a tear sliding down his cheek. "We should go to the quarry. One last jump." Mike suggests, earning a smile from everyone. "Yeah, s-sure, why not?"

"Alright? Ready?" Stanley asks, intertwining his hands with Y/N and Bill. "No, I can't believe you guys are making me do this! Do you know how many germs there are in that water?" Eddie yells in a panic, "Yeah, and you've jumped in that water how many times before? There's other things to worry about, Eds." Y/N smiled as he groaned, "Ew, don't call me that. You're turning into Richie." He retorts, earning a laugh from everyone. "Aw, I thought you loved me Eds." Richie pouts, putting on a high-pitched voice as he says so.

"Alright, alright. Ready?" Stanley repeats, "As I'll ever be." Richie sighs, "Three," Bill begins counting down, "T-Two," He sighs, "One." Everyone lets out a scream as they all run forward and jump off, hand-in-hand with smiles on their faces as they plunge into the water. Stanley surfaces first, Bill following as he looks around for his sister who pops up after Richie and Eddie, Mike follows with Ben popping up last.

"Chicken fight for the last time?" Richie suggests, earning grins from both of the twins. "Prepare to eat shit, Tozier." Y/N grins, hopping onto her boyfriends shoulders with no hesitation, smirking at him. "I'm gonna eat shit? Nah, you're gonna lose. Just because it's your last one doesn't mean I'm gonna go easy!" Richie scoffs, getting onto Ben's shoulders. "It's always easy whenever I go against you." She teases, smirking as he rolls his eyes. "Yeah, okay, whatever Mrs. Uris."

Bill let's out a sigh of frustration, "Can you j-j-j-just go already?" He asks, clearly irritated. "Right, sorry." Richie mumbles as Eddie begins to count down. "Go!" He yells, smiling as Richie falls after only five seconds. "I told you!" Y/N provokes, laughing at his face once he surfaces, "I'm forever the winner." She beams, holding her head high as Richie groans. "Yeah, yeah. Whatever, I went easy anyways." He grumbles, earning laughs from the others. "A-Alright, my turn." Bill says, getting onto Mike's shoulders as Stan and Y/N swap places.

"You've got this, love." She reassures, tightening her grip around his thighs as Richie counts down, "GO!" He yells, watching intently as Bill and Stan struggle against each other, pushing as hard as they can. Y/N lets out a laugh as Bill struggles against Stan's arms, wobbling a bit before toppling backwards. She cheers loudly, helping Stan off her shoulders.

"YEAH! WOO!" She cheers, pressing a kiss to his cheek. "WE'RE FOREVER BETTER THAN ALL OF YOU!" She shouts rather loudly, giggling as Richie splashes her with water and the roll of his eyes. "Yeah, sure. If Beverly was here she would've totally destroyed you." Eddie retorts, earning laughs from everyone else. "Yeah, but she's not. Which makes us the winners!" She beams once more, pressing a quick kiss to Stanley's lips. "We've g-gotta get back, we don't have v-v-very long." Bill stutters out as Eddie checks his watch, "Alright.." Mike frowns.

Bill walks to the car, waving one last time to the other losers before getting in with a frown. Y/N sighs, pulling away from Richie before making her way over to the car. "I'm really gonna miss you guys.." She admits, wiping away her tears. "We'll miss you too." Mike says, giving a small smile through his tears as Stanley walks over to her, taking her hands in his.

"I love you," He whispers, meeting her e/c eyes. "I will always love you, in every universe, in every life, including for the rest of this one. I promise I'll love you forever, thank you for every single memory you've made with me. And, thank you for loving me. Thank you for showing me what it's like to be loved, I'll never forget you, ever. I'm willing to be whatever you want us to be, whether it's friends, lovers, both, or even enemies, as long as I get to see you. As long as I get to say I once got to have heaven on earth as my own, in my arms. I love you, Y/N Denbrough." He smiles, sniffling as tears slide down his cheeks and onto their hands.

Y/N smiles widely, letting out a small laugh as tears stream down her cheeks, "I'll never forget about you, you were the only guy in this town I've ever loved, the only one I couldn't keep my eyes off of. And, you did nothing but show me your love and friendship. You made me smile, and laugh, like I haven't done in years.." She admits, sniffling as she tries to stifle her cries, "And Stanley Uris," She pauses, smashing her lips onto his, savouring the way he tastes like chocolate, savouring the way his soft lips feel against hers. Savouring the way he made her feel, showing her what it was like to be loved. Savouring the way his tongue felt against hers, savouring the way he made her heart skip a beat everytime she saw him, savouring the way he'd always make her blush even at the smallest things, like a kiss. No matter how many times they'd have done it before.

Y/N pulls away first, caressing his cheek. "Don't you forget about me." She whispers,

— "Never." Stanley whispers back, pressing one last small, but soft and gentle kiss to her lips.
