MODERN AU—AGED UP CHARACTERS

You walked through the halls on your first day at Derry highschool with your new friends. The losers club. You were a couple years older than them.

You, Bill, Richie, Ben, Eddie, Stan, Beverly, and Mike- (He’s not homeschooled in this AU) -walk past this group of guys who looked around your age, you noticed how they all visibly tensed and lowered their heads, you didn’t. You just furrowed your brows and looked at them curiously. Henry, the blonde one with a shitty mullet glared at you, the shorter more pudgy one just ignored you, The tall-ish bleached blonde glanced at you but honestly paid you no mind, and finally, the tallest one who had long really dark brown hair, you two made eye contact. He smirked at you and licked his lips. He was kinda creepy. But you couldn’t deny the thrill of being stared down by him. You kept a straight face as you two held eye contact till you and the Losers turned the corner. And you finally spoke once they lifted their heads.

“Now who’s that irresistible man with an insatiable love for the dead, huh?”

You asked, Bill spoke up.

“Th-th-them? Th-that’s the buh-buh-bowers gang. St-steer c-clear fr-fr-fr-fr-from the-them.”

You shook your head.

“No. The tall one. The really tall one.”

Richie’s eyes widened.

“Wait what?!”

Then all of them realized who you were referring to and all spoke in unison

“Patrick Hockstetter?!”
