Eddie's POV:
It was the next day after I found out Richie was most likely gay. He didn't actually say it but I could read a room and that room was DEFINITELY filled with gayness. I wanted to tell someone about what happened but I didn't wanna out Richie. I was outside just sitting and thinking then I saw Bev. She'd understand right?

Eddie: "Hey Bev!!"

She stopped walking then headed towards me.

Bev: "what's up?"

Eddie: "can I uh..tell you something?"

Bev: "yeah sure"

She sat next to me.

Eddie: "okay you can't tell anyone this! Richie would kill me!"

Bev: "uhm okay?"

I explained to her everything that happened and how I was really curious on who he could like

Bev: "oh wow, you're blinder than Richie!"

Eddie: "what?"

Bev started laughing and I stared at her really confused

Bev: "oh my god you really don't know who he likes? I mean i didn't know he was gay but I always figured if he was he'd like..you know how do I say this"

Eddie: "who?"

Bev: "You really are blind. It's obviously you."

Me? No! It wouldn't be Richie is not like that. Yet again I didn't think he was gay either.

Eddie: "what? No!"

Bev: "uh, yes!"

Eddie: "I'm not gay though"

Bev: "I don't know what to tell you. Just tell him you don't feel the same, I'm sure he'll understand."

Eddie: "and if he doesn't? I'll lose my friend!"

Bev: "well how do you feel about Richie?"

Eddie: "he's hella annoying! His glasses make him look like a dork! He thinks he's soooo funny when he's not!! He always has something to stare at! But he's my longest friend so.."

Bev: "you sound really gay"

Eddie: "How?!"

Bev: "you want me to be honest?"

I shook my head yes

Bev: "I think you're in denial and that Richie has had a huge crush on you since like forever he's just to scared to tell you and your to scared to accept you might be a LITTLE gay and I also think you both are pussy's"

Eddie: "I- no!-"

Bev got up and left and I just sat there thinking. Richie? Liking me? There's literally NO way! And I am NOT gay!!

Richies POV:
Ughhhh I hate everything so fucking much! Eddie will surely tell someone then they'll tell someone then they'll tell everyone else! Fuck dude! Why can't I just be straight?! Eddie probably won't stop bugging me until he knows who I likes now!! Even the fucking losers will think I'm a loser!
