Richies POV:
After we got the snacks we headed back to his house.

Richie: "we should go on your roof"

Eddie: "one of us will fall and crack our heads open"

Richie: "only if you're being stupid"

I started to climb the tree onto his roof still with all the snacks we bought. I looked down at Eddie.

Richie: "you coming or are you a pussy?"

Eddie's POV:
I mumbled under my breath

Eddie: "I'll show you fucking pussy.."

Richie: "Whatcha say Ed's?"

Eddie: "nothing! I'm coming up now!"

I climbed up the tree like Richie did and made sure to be careful because I did not feel like falling again. When I finally got up there I saw Richie looking at the sky. He looked..pretty? Like if he was a girl he'd be a really pretty one. Is that weird?

Eddie: "Hey trashmouth"

Richie: "want some chips Ed's"

Eddie: "you said you'd stop calling me that"

Richie: "that's not fair"

Eddie: "it is fair your staying at MY house"

Richie: "well I bought us snacks!"

Eddie: "I never asked you to!"

Richie: "I was being very polite and did it anyway!"

Eddie: "No! You forced me to go sneak out to buy junk food!"

Richie: "it's the thought that counts"

Eddie: "I didn't know thinking was possible for you"

For once Richie was quiet which was another thing I didn't think was possible. We were both quite for a good 5 minutes and in those minutes I was thinking about the carving. Is it weird that I can't stop thinking about it? I mean how did he know I was gonna see him. The joke would've made no sense if I never even knew about it. And he looked genuinely scared when he heard me.

Eddie: "Richie?"

Richie: "huh"

Eddie: "did the R + E really stand for "Richie + Eddie's mom" ? I mean you looked kinda scared when you heard me"

Richies POV:
He's still stuck on that? Maybe I should tell him- no things would be hella awkward.

Richie: "There isn't anyone I love more than your mom Ed's"

Eddie: "I hope you know your not funny"

Richie: "Im hilarious"

Eddie: "yeah, to yourself"

Richie: "That's not what u-

Eddie: "Finish that sentence and I swear- anyway why'd you look so scared when you heard me?"

Richie: "well I had to make you believe it"

Eddie: "believe what?

Richie: "well uh that it was you"

Eddie and I were both quite for a couple minutes. He looked like he was thinking about whatever Eddie thinks about. He finally broke the silence

Eddie: "Are you gay Richie?"

Richie: "Dude don't say you believe in the rumors"

Eddie: "I don't know"

Richie: "I'm not gay bro"

Honestly Eddie asking me that did make me ask if I was. Like I knew I liked boys somewhat because I kinda had feelings for Eddie but I never thought I was gay I thought I was just confused. I've never really had a crush on a girl but I always try to convince myself I like girls a bit.

Eddie: "Okay just asking"

Richie: "Why cause you're gay and have a huge crush on me because of how amazing I am?"

Eddie: "shut the hell up! Even if I was gay you'd be my last option!"

Eddie's POV:
Richie was a dumb ass. I wonder what it'd be like if I WAS gay though? Would I actually date Richie if I was?..well no I wouldn't because he's not even gay but would I like him? Is it gay to say he's kinda cute? Yea that gay

Richie: "you're so rude I am so hot"

Eddie: "in your dreams"

Richie: "tons of girls probably dream about me"

Eddie: "Ya right since when has anyone had a crush on you!"

Richie: "since your mom first laid her eyes on me, she looked at me in the eyes and said "you're more beautiful than anyone I've ever seen if trade my own son for you""

Eddie: "Shut the hell up!"

Richie was laughing then laid down to stare at the stars

Richie: "it's pretty out at night don't you think?"

Eddie: "You mean when all the kidnappers are out yeah no."

Richie: "well I meant the fucking stars, they're really pretty"

I stared at him and couldn't look away. He looked...nice. But not in a weird way. I laid down beside him

Eddie: "yea the stars are kinda pretty"

Richie smiled and kept staring at the sky. I was staring at him though. I yawned then fell asleep
(Yes they're still on the roof)

Richies POV:
I looked over to Eddie and saw him sleeping. He was facing me. I wish I could tell him how I felt but at the same time I wish I didn't have these feelings in the first place. I turned by body towards him then slowly closed my eyes.
