You and your friends, the Losers, were smack shopping for snacks to bring back to the treehouse. Bill and Stan were in the soda aisle, Eddie was in the fruit aisle—since he said you guys needed ‘actual’ food instead of just snacks—, Bev and Ben were in the chip aisle and Mike was in the candy aisle. You were paired up with Richie in the gummy aisle but Richie got distracted in the cookie aisle and you wandered off somewhere. After realizing you weren’t with him, he checked the aisles the others were in, but didn’t find you. So he began searching the rest of the store.

Richie: “Where the hell did they wander off to?-“

He was about to walk pass the medicine aisle, but stopped. He saw you, reaching for a box of sleeping pills. Whenever you went to sleep, you woke up because of nightmares caused by some sort of trauma-(the type of trauma your choice)-and wouldn’t be able to fall back asleep. So you took sleeping pills before you went to sleep to get rid of the nightmares, and they actually worked. Richie was the only one who knew about this because you didn’t want the others to worry and he found out on his own. One time you two were having a sleepover at his house and you were crying in your sleep because of the nightmares and thats how Richie found out. Anyways, the box of sleeping pills were on a self, out of your reach.
