CW!! HOMOPHOBIC SLURS
Richies POV:
I carved the letters R + E knowing I didn't have the confidence to truly tell him how much I really did like him. I mean if I did everyone would know how much of a fag I am, then Bowers would be right. That's the last thing I wanted. Looking at the letters next to each other made me feel a way I.. didn't wanna describe. I feel so gross just for thinking this way.
I heard some noises in the bushes and immediately freaked out
Fuck! I said under my breathe.

Eddie's POV:
Damnit! I think he heard me!
I peaked to see if Richie was still there but i saw him run off. I was just tryna ask him something then saw him doing.. whatever the hell he was doing.
Ughh whatever, what was he carving anyway?
I looked to see what he carved and saw two letters, R + E.
"R + E? Who in the fucks name starts with the letter E?"
I mean my name starts with an E.. but I'm a guy, so that doesn't make sense. He's never told me about any girl? You know what I'll just go over to his house and ask him. I started to leave and head over to Richies house.

Richies POV:
Fuck fuck fuck dude! What if someone saw me? What if Bowers saw me?! Or even worse fucking Eddie! What would I do if everyone knew I'm a fag!? I'm already annoying enough to everyone! They'll hate me for su-
I stoped thinking for a moment because I heard someone knocking on the door
Who the hell is that?
I ran downstairs to see who it was.

No one's POV:
Richie, still hella nervous opened the door to see Eddie standing outside.

Richie: "What are you doin here, Ed's? Came to see my beautiful face huh?"

Richie said this trying to seem as chill as possible. I mean worse case scenario Eddie was the one who saw him.

Eddie: "Shut up, Richie, and don't call me that!"

Richie: "Whatever ya say!"

Eddie: "I swear to god I will beat your ass-"

Richie: "Ya know I beat your moms ass last nigh-"

Eddie jumped on top of Richie and started wrestling him. Eddie was pissed but Richie just kept laughing. Richie thought it was the funniest thing in the world when Eddie was mad. Eddie obviously thought otherwise..

Richie: "Okay okay! I'll stop! Just get off of me!

Eddie got off, still pissed as ever.

Richie: "Anyway what brought ya here Ed's?"

Eddie: "I hate you with a dying passion.
Anyway, I saw you down at the kissing bridge carving in some initials and I wanted to ask wh-"

Richie stopped listening. "What." He thought. He froze. yknow how the worst case scenario was Eddie being the one who saw him, yea well now the worse case is that he knows he's the E that Richie carved. Fuck. He thought, Fuck fuck fuck. Eddie probably knew. He was probably gonna start saying how gross Richie was and how he never wanted to see him again.

Eddie: "Richie? Richieee? You there? earth to trashmouth !"

Richie: "huh?"

Eddie: "oh my fucking god you weren't even listening?! Basically I was wondering who the E was? I mean its not me thats for sure, I'm a guy"

Richies POV:
I paused again, I didn't even know wether to be happy he didn't know, or upset that he didn't want it to be him. Either way I wasn't gonna tell him it was him, I mean this isn't some fairy tale happily ever after shit. He's not gonna feel the same. Hell I don't even know if I want him to feel the same. We'd both get bullied on non stop.

Eddies POV:
He was just standing there.
After a long pause Richie finally said something.

Richie: "Oh, Eddie, the E was obviously for Eddie! Eddie's mom!"

I could feel my face burn up. I hated when he made those stupid ass jokes!

Eddie: Richie I swear to fucking god!

Richie pulled me in his arms and started messing with my hair. I also hate when he does that!

Eddie: "knock it off! And don't touch me! You're probably carrying some disease!"

Richie: "I'm not that dirty!"

Eddie: "I saw you throw fucking dirt on an open wound!"

Richie: "well that's what your supposed to do aren't you?"

I hate Richie sometimes! I hate it when he does this! He's so dumb! "Isn't that what you're supposed to do?" Ugh.. he makes me mad!

Richies POV:
Eddie is so cute sometimes..
