More than friends {Reddie fanfic}

Eddie tried to say something but every time he opened his mouth he would just go back to heaving, Bev hears the noises from the other side of the door but get's no answer so she reach's forward trying to open the door only to find out it was locked when the knob wouldn't budge. "Eddie, can you open the door?" she calls out, Eddie was still sat on the floor slowly slides himself forward enough to unlock the door and since the bathroom was originally made for one person it was small enough that he could just lean back and he was would back against the tub. He pushes his back against the cold siding of the tub resting his head against his knees. Once Bev hears the click of the door she pushes it open letting out a sigh seeing Eddie sat there looking awful..

"What happened?" Bev ask walking into the bathroom his question answered when she notices the inside of the toilet bowl gaging a bit but she didn't want to make Eddie feel worse so she just closes the lid before sitting down next to him placing her hand on the back of his hand moving in comforting circles, "It's okay Eddie, you'll feel better right now it's just fresh"

"I feel like shit.."

"I know.. But you'll be okay we can plan stuff with the others to get your mind off of it!"

"Yeah.. Okay" Eddie gives her a small smile but in reality all he wanted to do was just sit, he was afraid of his mother telling the people she knew and the word of him being gay would spread faster then a damn forest fire.. She was even more scared of seeing his mom in person by accident.. Richie kicks a rock from under his foot watching it roll until it gets stuck in one of the cracks on the sidewalk, the sun was beating down on him as he walked to Eddie's house it had been a while since he heard from him and Richie was just bored with nothing else to do so he decided to go see Eddie. He stops when he gets in front of the house he always hated the look of it and hated the person inside even more, he never understood how that women could be so cruel.. Being as silent as he could he reach's the side of the house lifting himself onto the trash can then onto the roof with a huff, now he just had to remember to knock on the right window.. He slides himself against the side of the roof until he gets to Eddie's window seeing the curtain pulled shut which was weird because Eddie hated staying in a dark room if the sun was out, Richie shakes off the weird feeling and knocks three times on the window which is a way that Eddie knew that it was him but after waiting a few minutes he get's no answer making him even more confused. "Maybe he's in the bathroom.."

Richie thinks to himself, he knew Eddie wouldn't mind him being in his room so he slides the window open from the outside since it thankfully wasn't locked. After pushing it open enough that he could slide inside he pushes his tall body in his vans hitting the floor, once his body was fully inside the room he stands up straight his confusion only getting worse when he see's a cardboard box sat on his bed stuff already starting to be piled inside it.. Richie look's around his room confused until he hears the voice of Eddie's room, he could tell it was from downstairs so he tiptoes towards the door really not wanting the old floor to creak under his weight.. Peaking his head into the hallway Richie was able to hear her voice better starting to listen to what she was saying "I don't understand where I went wrong Susana! One second he was my perfect little boy and then I see him kissing that boy! He threw a fit on me when I was just trying to help.. And now he's gone somewhere crying to his friends, probably making me out to be the bad guy" 

Richie's jaw drops, "What the fuck is going on?" he thinks to himself stepping back into the room silently closing the door now just standing their in shock.. Where the hell was Eddie? He quickly shoves himself out of the window jumping off the roof no longer caring about the amount of noise he made, he runs all the way home by the time he gets there he was panting loudly sweat dripping down his face but he doesn't stop once he shoves his way into the house his mother looking over at him confused "Richie? What's going on it looks like you just ran a lap"
