  I followed Eddie upstairs and into his room, it looked exactly the same as before we became from friends to enemies.

  "Woah." I looked around the room.

  "What's there to woah about? Nothing changed." He laughed. My heart fluttered at that, I don't know why.

  "Woah, you've gotten chubbier, Eds." I launched up onto him and tickled his sides, he was lying on the bed and I was on top of him.

  "S-stop Richie! Y-you know I'm ticklish!" He laughed trying to push me off of him.

  "I'm not going to stop unless you say, 'I love you Richie, you're the best friend ever!'" I tickled him. I noticed he was starting to wheeze now.

  "N-never in a muh-million years!" He was crying now.

  "Say it or I won't stop!" I said.

  "I-I love you Richie and y-you're the best f-friend ever! There! Done! Now stop!" He begged.

  I stopped tickling him and sat on top of his legs. He was laughing so much, tears came out of his eyes. He was wheezing quite badly now so he took a puff from his inhaler. After that, he started to breathe normally.

  "You still use that thing?" I asked. Tilting my head like a cat.

  "Yeah." He sighed sadly, " I wish I didn't though..."

  Just then, there came a knock on the door. Jack peeped his head in and whimpered when he saw me, "Come here J-dog." I patted the seat next to me on the bed. Het took a step back, afraid I might hurt him, "Don't worry, J-dog, I won't hurt you. I'm terribly sorry." I put on sad puppy dog eyes. I pulled him into a hug. Surprisingly, he hugged back.

  "I'm happy this Richie is back." He snuggled into my chest.

  "Would you mind if I stayed here for awhile?" I asked him.

  "Nope. Not at all. I'm sure Eddie won't mind as well." He smiled.

  "Really? And why is that J-dog?"

  "Cause every day, he keeps telling me how much he misses you, how much he misses your warm embrace, whatever that means, and ho-" his sentence was muffled by Eddie covering Jack's mouth with his hand.

  Eddie's face was red with embarrassment and I knew Jack licked Eddie's hand because of his expression. How do I know that, you ask? Cause that's the face he made when I did the same thing when we were little.

  "That's disgusting Jack!" He wiped his hands on his pants.

  "Attaboy Jack! Following in his brother's best friend's footsteps. I feel so loved right now." I put a hand on my heart and pretended to wipe a tear.

  "Ex best friend." He corrected.

  "Aww don't be like that, Eddie Spaghetti!" I pinched his cheeks as he tried to scramble away.
