I couldn't think straight anymore, all I heard from him was "her, her, her." My heart hurts, hearing about this "her" a person who wasn't me. How could someone make me feel this little. How could someone make me suddenly feel like nothing at all.

Until I saw it happen, Richie was talking to someone new. But he was smiling at her, like he smiled at me. Made stupid jokes like he did with me. Did he forget about me, our friendship that I wished was a relationship.

I never admitted it but I loved Richie Tozier. It made me sad, knowing I can't be the one to make him smile. "wanna go out sometime sugar?" Richie said trying to be smooth with the girl next to him. "Sure." She beamed and smiled. I felt my heart drop making me feel empty.

I got up and grabbed my bag. "Y/n?" The teacher said and all eyes were on me. Richie looked at me but I slammed my chair into the desk. I walked out slamming the door behind me.

When I'm mad.

I do stupid things.

Stupid. Stupid things.

He probably thought I was crazy, but it didn't matter anymore. Nothing I could do would change anything between us. We're too different from each other. I walked out of the front doors of the school tears running down my face. I ran, I didn't know where I was going but my legs took me somewhere

an hour later

I was at the quarry watching the sun go down. "The sun looked better with you." I whispered.
I didn't know what to do anymore, it's not like he's mine. All these thoughts pierced through my mind. I was happier with him.

A week had passed by..

No sign of you, just you and "sugar". I started to feel lonely as you were my only friend in Derry aside from the losers so, I started hanging out with Eddie. Since you no longer had time for me anymore. "Hey y/n?" Eddie said looking at me.

"Yeah?" I said. "What happened to you and Rich?" The smaller boy said in a questionable tone. "I-I don't know honestly." I said shrugging. "Hey if you ever need anything... I'll be there for you." He said and hugged me.

Richie darted daggers at Eddie from across the hall before he came up to us but Ed's pulled me away knowing I wasn't ready for any kind of interaction with the boy. "Dang! the guy can make dates with some girl but you can't even hug someone what kind of shit is that?" Eddie said laughing as I laughed too."Ahh Ed's who knows at this point?." I said putting an arm around his shoulder and walked to our next class.

A month later..

Richie was coming towards me and Eddie. "Fuck he's gonna flip his shit.." Eddie said fiddling with his fingers. Richie got closer until he said  "Y/n." "What?" I said adjusting the straps on my book bag. "Why've you been avoiding me?" He said looking at me with sad eyes.

"Because apparently you've been making dates and forgetting about me so I have just been hanging out with other people aswell." I said bluntly. "And I cant believe how unbelievably stupid I am for liking yo-." I got out before Richie put his soft lips on mine.

Eddie took out his inhaler and took a puff and backed away not wanting germs. "I think I'm in love." Richie said softly. I stood there in awe. "W-what w-why h-h-how?" I said

"You heard me sweet cheeks, I've been trying to forget about my crush on you since I thought you weren't interested but boy...was I wrong.." he said. "Richie.." I said hugging him.

"I think I'm gonna puke." Eddie said.

He was happier with y/n.
