Prologue:

Richie Tozier had five friends, and it was plenty for him. Or at least he thought it was. The teen never received attention either way, no matter what friend he was with he always felt like he was doing most of the listening.

He tried making jokes to fill Empty voids but most people got mad at him for them, and soon enough he had a reputation. The kid who only talked to make gross jokes.

Walking down the hall Richie was thinking about what classes he was missing as he was leaving to take a smoke break. It wasn't like the teachers cared, it was Richie, the kid who never cared about school.

As the teens whistles echoed off the linoleum floors he stared at the fluorescent lights, his head thrown back and his hair bouncing, what he didn't see was the small boy making his way to class after his mother forced him to go to another doctors appointment.

The boy raced down the halls to his next class, keeping his eyes glued to the floor as his Velcro shoes bounced off the tile, and within seconds the two collided.

Two opposite people with completely different social situation slammed together in the empty hall, Richies cigarette pack flying in the air and eddies loose papers scattering on the tile.

"Oh shit, kid, sorry about that. You're so short I couldn't see ya," the teen chucked to himself as Eddie shot him a look.

"Hey! My homework!" Richie smiled as he raised an eyebrow, the tall teen bent down as picked up a paper that laid at his feet.

Eddie snatched the paper from Richies hand and tucked it back into a folder, he then looked up at Richie and stayed they for a minute in shock.

Richie noticed this boy had the most beautiful eyes he'd ever seen, they were pools of coffee and cream with hazel specks. The teen could melt in them, but the boy closed his eyes and looked away.

"Are you okay?" Richie asked as he dared to try and get another glance at those eyes.

"I'm fine. Whatever okay?" The boy scooted around Richie and began to race back to class. He stopped as he noticed the pack of cigarettes on the ground that belonged to Richie. He sighed and picked them up, tracing his Steps back and stopping in front of the lanky teen. "Im sorry."

He handed Richie the pack of cigarettes, laying it on top of his hand. Richie felt shocks sent through his hand as Eddie placed his hand on top of his, he smiled.

"Don't worry about it kid," he grabbed the cigarettes and stuck on between his lips, flashing him a toothy smile.

"Careful, those kill you, ya know?" And the boy rushed off down the hallway, disappearing around the corner as Richie stood there in shock of those beautiful brown eyes.

How he wished to see those eyes again.
