Yo I am lovin this fiction. Sorry that the chapters are so short and choppy but I am not an experienced writer yet.

Disclaimer: I am obviously not Rob Reiner or Stephan King so I do not own this.

We walked into the corner shop in the small town of castle rock. There was a Yankees poster hanging on one of the walls, "OH BOSS!" both Gordie and I exclaimed. "you like the Yankees?", I questioned. "yeah! Love your shirt by the way", he mentioned.

It was nearing summer and the most intense heat had just settled in that week. Weirdly though my new friends and I walked every aisle there were no drinks to be found.

"Lets just walk down to Joe's." Gordie said. "What? We're going to whose house?" I asked in genuine confusion.

"No, not someone's home! There is a diner just down the street called Joe's. It's owned by a man as old as Castle Rock, or so goes the legend." Chris said with a smile.

"Sounds good, plus I am famished." teddy interjected.

So our gang walked about four shops down and true to their word there was a Joe's diner sitting there.

A silver bell dinged as we stepped into the shop.

There were many booths and a counter with red cushioned stools underneath and a man in all white standing behind the long stretch of plastic.

A lit up jukebox sat in the corner playing Rockin Robin by Bobby day.

" Hey youngsters, what can I get ya?" the man with a plastic nametag pinned to his chest stating Phil on it.

" Just the usual." Chris responded.

"I see ya got a new member." Phil said referring to me.

He must have thought I was a boy because I had thrown on a baseball cap and my flat chest showed no sign of me being a girl.

I took off my cap letting my hair cascade down my back.

" Apologies miss, I didn't realize", Phil started.

Then as Chris walked up to get our order I heard the man in white say, " Caught yourself a girl have ya?"

" Shut up!" my friend exclaimed in embarrassment.

I sat with my back to the door next to Vern who sat next to Teddy and then Gordie across from me with Chris diagonal.

" Here comes trouble", Gordie said softly glaring at something behind my back.

Then I heard a familiar voice say, " how's it goin girls?"

It was eyeball followed by Ace.

I had replaced my hat and they thought I was just another boy. By that time we had finished our hamburgers and we stood up and left.

As soon as we walked out the door I sighed in relief.

"That sure was close Blaire. If they had known it was you…", teddy said warningly.

" What time do ya have to be home?" Gordie asked.

"Eh nine?" I said.

"Well its five now. I say we stop up at the tree house.," he continued.

I followed the boys to a vacant lot which had a tree house made of wood gripping to an old oak in the center of it.

Chris POV

Blaire was certainly not your average Castle Rock girl.

She had spunk. Her hair was curly and dark brown with streaks of bleach blond, which must have been dyed, in her bangs. Our new girls eyes were brown and she had pale-ish skin.

" So tell me about yourselves." she said, breaking me out of my trance. " Well, we have all grown up in castle rock." I said stating the only thing we really all have in common.

" What was the whole penny thing earlier." She asked.

"Well you see, two summers back it was a hot day nearing the end of vacation and", then we all told her of our journey to Ray Brower, and our feud with the cobras.

" Hey I noticed that Eyeball looks a lot like you, Chris." Blaire said.

I grimaced," I'm his brother."

"Oh." she said. Then there was an awkward silence.

Then Vern started up a conversation and we laughed all night.

Blaire POV

I glanced down at my watch.

"Shoot! Its 8:50!" I exclaimed.

"Where do you live?" Gordie asked.

" On White Stone." I replied.

"Oh that's where I live too!" he said.

"Here I'll walk you home, incase the cobras are out."

"Thanks", I replied.
