Face It//Eddie Kaspbrak

Chapter Ten

I opened the door to see the bathroom covered in blood. I turn my head to the side, as I start to gag. "I think I'm going to join Richie outside."

As I walk down the corridor, I feel a sympathetic pat on my back. I turn around before walk out the door, I see Eddie looking at me with a look in his eyes I don't recognize.

"What are you doing?" Richie ask as I walk down the flight of stairs.

I couldn't help myself. I pulled Richie in for a tight hug. It took Richie a moment to get over his shock, but he soon hugged back just as tight.

"Do you want to talk about it?" Richie whispers in my ear. As much crap as I give Richie I don't give him enough credit.

I nod my head and pull away from Richie. "There is something in Derry, Rich. Something bad. First it got Georgie and now it's targeting Bev. I'm scared Richie. I don't want to lose any of you."

I didn't notice I let a few stray tears slip until Richie whipped them with his thumbs Richie looked me right in the eyes as he spoke. "I promise I will never let anything hurt you, me, or anyone of us. You hear me, Ems?"

I nod my head, not trusting my voice at the moment. Richie pulled me back in into a hug. A few minutes later he let me go and we created small talk.
