Reddie- angsty fic

{Part Eighteen} Suspicious

Beverlys POV

"I'm telling you, there was something up with Eddie when I met him in the toilets," Ben says as we head back to where the two were only one hour ago in search of Eddies missing inhaler, "First of all, his hair was a mess!" Ben sighs, holding the door into the school open for me,

"So what?" I say, not really seeing the point, my hairs always a mess, "have you seen Richies? That boy hasn't looked at a comb in his lifetime, let alone use one-" I start laughing at my comment,

"Yes but have you ever seen Eddies a mess? Not combed to perfection by his mom?"

"No..." I answer, because it's true, Eddies hair is always perfect, styled to perfection everyday.

"His face was bright red as well, and also Eddie LEFT HIS INHALER. IN. A. BATHROOM." Ben continues as we approach the toilets. "Everyone knows Eddies hates public bathrooms so why would he leave the thing he puts in his mouth daily IN.THE.TOILETS"

"Yeah.. strange.. should we ask him? What do you think he was doing?" I question,

"No clue, but something tells me that the answers somewhere in there." He finally finishes gesturing at the school toilets we are now standing in front of.

"After you m'lady" I hold open the door for him pretending to curtsy, he does it back which makes me laugh and we enter the horrible toilets giggling happily.

"What.The.Fuck" I shout to Ben who heads over after checking in the sinks,

"What?" He asks, joining me over in the furthest cubicle where I am standing, "You find anything??"

"Um.. Yeah actually..." I say directing my eyes to the object on the ground next to Eddies inhaler,

"Oh you found his inhaler," Ben states, picking it up and putting it in his pocket, not realising what the other object is. "Wait, what the fuck is that..?

"Yeah, what the fuck indeed," I shake my head in disbelief "why the fuck is there a pack of cigarettes in here?" We both pause for a moment staring at the pack of Camels.

"You think Eddie was smoking in here??" Ben asks in shock, then it hits me, a smug grin plastered on my face, I shake my head again and I start to giggle.

"No... I think someone else was" I giggle even more saying it out loud, it takes Ben a few moments but then it hits him like a truck.

"Oh my god.." he says looking at me with the same expression I have, and without breaking eye contact, at the same time we say,

"Richie."
