After a long boring day of school, you and the losers happily left school to go to other places, as you always did, go to the cliff, to the sewers or just ride around the streets of Derry on your bike. The day was cheerful, nothing could ruin it, it was a little hot and the day was warm, finally there was a day of peace between you.
After riding everywhere, now you were riding in the streets with your bikes going to the river. You were planning to have a sleepover at Bill's house, why not? Obviously they would let you even if you didn't ask for permission. That day Bill would be alone at his house, so it would be a good day, since it was Friday anyway.
After a long day of riding around in the street, it finally got dark and everyone packed their backpack so they could spend the night together. You were all already in Bill's room, you and Bill sitting on the bed, Eddie was sitting in one of the chairs in the corner, along with Richie who was sitting next to his legs on the floor, and Beverly, Ben and Stanley were sitting on the floor, on cushions.
