Eddie's POV:
We went into the treehouse. Me and Richie kept making eye contact and smiling. I was crying earlier with him. I was scared. Scared because I was falling for him. Richie. And I realized I was..gay. I needed to tell them soon. I was terrified about what they would think.
"I need to tell you guys something.." I spit out and everyone looked over at me. "I don't really know how I'm going to say this so..I'm just gonna spit it out" I take a deep breath. If this goes wrong, I might as well end it all. "I-I'm gay.." I say and I start crying all over again. All of them run over to me, besides Richie. He just stood there, his mouth was open, he looked completely shocked. "I'm so proud of you!" Beverly hugs me. "We support you! We're both gay after all" Stanley says and Bill agrees. Mike and Ben also both hug me.
"Richie what are you doing? Eddie just came out to us!" Beverly exclaims and hugs me again. "I'm gay too.." Richie says and we all turn to him. Me and him make long eye contact. Maybe I have more of a chance then I think. But why would he even like me? "How ironic. The cutest couple both comes out in the same day" Stanley smirks. Bill hits him with his elbow, giving him the hint to shut up, and Stanley apologizes. At this moment. I kinda wanted to jump off a bridge.
Richie's POV:
"Anyways..we should watch a movie! Annabelle?" Bill suggests, we all agree. The movie starts and I look over at Eddie. I already seen the fear in his eyes. I scoot closer to him and he looks over. I put my arm around him and smile. He smiled too and looked me up and down. I felt my face get hot but I tried to focus on the movie.
I couldn't help myself so I looked over at him again. He looked so focused and concentrated. It was adorable. I tried to count all his freckles but then he looked over so I pretended to watch the movie, but really, I was thinking about him. I looked back into his eyes, it's like he was numb for a second before looking over at me. I could tell there was something wrong but I didn't want to bother him.
