Song for the chapter is Ways to Go by Grouplove
Eddie woke up to a harsh tapping on his window. He rolled over and opened one eye to see Richie on his roof.
"Richie! What are you doing! You're going to fall off!" He said as he jumped up helping him through the window.
Richie just laughed and said "Calm down Eds, I'm okay." Richie climbed in the window and faced Eddie.
"Okay...so what do you want?" Eddie asked.
"Wow." Richie said gripping his heart. "That was harsh" he said sarcastically. "Anyway, I wanted to see if you want too hang out."
"Look Richie," Eddie said as he walked over towards his dresser, just realizing he was still in his underwear. "I'm cool hanging out with the losers again, I'm so happy that we're all back together but I don't think it's the best idea to hang out individually."
"Oh. Well why?"
"Cause I would probably punch you in the face." Eddie said throwing on a shirt.
"Woah what?" Richie said confused.
"You don't remember do you?" Eddie asked.
"Remember what? Look Eddie, I know what I said a couple summers ago was extremely hurtful to you. It was disgusting but I'm a different person now."
He doesn't remember. He was too drunk to remember kissing him and coming out. Eddie could go too ways with this. He could tell him everything and ruin their friendship. Again. Or he could get his best friend back.
"Nothing, I was just messing around and I'm over that night. You just spilled your drink on me the night of the party."
"Oh sorry dude." Richie said with a laugh. "So...you're dressed? You sure you don't wanna hang out?"
"Yeah...lets go" Eddie said with a smile.
The boys get on their bikes and start riding. Richie failed his driving test too many time and Eddie was still too young, but they liked their bikes. They were nostalgic. It was cold, being November, but they didn't care. They went to the Barrens, obviously.
They were racing their bikes when they heard noise in the trees. "Oh fuck." Richie said as he saw Bowers and his crew come out of the trees. They had a new member with them, Chris.
"Hahahaha okay this makes NO sense." Richie said laughing.
"What's so funny 4-eyes?" Bowers spitted.
"You call us all faggots but then you let Chris in your little girl group? He's gay!"
"No one cares for your opinion" Chris said.
"That's it dickhead." Bowers's yelled as he and his crew charged towards Richie and Eddie.
"Runnn!" Eddie screeched and ran. Richie followed and ran after Eddie laughing. The boys ran and ran until they couldn't see the older guys anymore. They kept running and laughing away their stress. Richie collapsed onto the grass and Eddie carefully laid down next to him. "You think their gone?" Eddie asked meekly.
"Hahaha yeah." Richie laughed.
"I don't understand how you can be so brave to them. Their terrifying. And now Chris has joined them? That's pathetic. He's so desperate for attention he is willing to hang out with people that call others fags. And he is one! Imagine being so scared of your identity."
Richie looked down and didn't reply. "Oh sor-" Eddie began
"What? Why are you sorry?" Richie asked.
Oh right. Richie doesn't know that Eddie knows he is gay.
"Nothing." Eddie said as he looked into his eyes. The boys laid staring in eachothers eyes for a minute until a huge pile of dogshit fell onto Eddies head. Richie looked up and saw Chris walking away and laughing.
"OH MY GOD OH MY GOD OH MY GOD" Eddie began.
"WHAT THE FUCK IS YOUR PROBLEM?" Richie asked as the boys began too walk away.
Eddie began to have a panic attack from the disgusting shit on his face.
"Calm down Richie. It's just a joke." Bowers laughed.
Eddie began to wash his face with the water in the Barrens, but then realized it was just shitty water and began breathing more heavily.
"That's it! I've had enough of your guys bullshit! You have been torturing us since middle school! We never have done anything to you!"
Eddie began to scramble to his bag to find his inhaler.
"Aww is that how you feel Tozier?"
"Yeah. I have no reason to be scared of you anymore anyway" Richie said as he moved face to face to Henry. Richie was taller then him now.
"I got shit on my inhaler!" Eddie yelled from the back.
"Well is that's how you feel." Bowers said and knocked Richie straight in the jaw. Richie recovered and hit him straight back. The other boys began to move on Richie. "No no guys. Just me and Tozier." Bowers said.
The two began to throw punches. Bowers knocked Richie in the nose and blood began to come out. While Richie was recovering Bowers knocked him into down to the ground. Punching his face over and over again. Richie got his hand free and threw one killer punch into Bowers neck. Richie stood up and pushed him down and began to kick him.
"OKAY OKAY YOU'RE GOING TO BREAK MY RIB!" Bowers yelled from the ground.
Richie stopped and looked down at Henry. "Don't ever bother me or my friends again."
Henry and his goons got up and scrambled away.
Richie sat down next too Eddie who was taking breaths from his shitty inhaler. "You okay?" Richie asked.
"Not really." Eddie said. He turned his head too look at Richie. "Woah what the fuck happened too you? I heard noise but I was a little distracted. I'm sorry. Are you okay?"
Richie laughed. "Yeah I'm okay."
The boys sat together for an hour not taking. They both wanted to go home and get cleaned up, but they rather just sit together.
