Y/N's Dad's POV

I got home and it was really quiet. Usually Y/N would be cooking dinner, playing music, or watching tv. But nope, nothing. I went upstairs to her room and knocked on the door. "Y/N?" I slowly opened the door and most of her stuff were gone. I walked into her room. It felt empty. I looked everywhere to see if I could find any clues as to what happened. Finally I saw something taped to the back of her door. A note. I read the note with tears dropping down my face. I ran downstairs and noticed a crack in the wall. What happened here? I walked into Y/N's mom's room and I's room. "Hey honey." She smiled at me. I didn't reply. I took my blazer off and set my keys down. "Are you okay? Did something happen at work?" She looked at me. "What happened to Y/N?" I asked suddenly asked. Her eyes widened as she gulped. "What d-do you m-mean?" "Don't play stupid with me Karen!" (Your mom's name is Karen and your dad's name is Jacob.) "What are you talking about Jacob?!" She started to get defensive. "Did you hit her? Is that why there's a crack in the wall out there?" I pointed towards the door. She smiled slightly. "A couple times. But she's in her room laughing it off." Karen shrugged it off. "What the hell is wrong with you?! Y/N is gone! All of her stuff is gone! Because of you! I can't believe I ever thought you would ever change!" I yelled through tears. "Get the fuck out of my house! Now!" She looked at me surprised. "Where am I going to live?!" She asked freaking out. "I don't know. Figure it out." I smiled at her. "Now get out!" Karen slowly got up and while she was leaving I yelled to her.. "Be prepared to see some divorce lawyer and documents!" And with that she left. For good. I sat on my bed with my head in my hands and started sobbing again. "Oh Y/N this is all my fault.." my voice cracked. I wish I was there for her more. I should've protected her.
-2 Days Later-

Y/N's POV

It's the first day of school. To be exact, Junior Year... I'm nervous. I know no one besides Richie and Eddie. I got ready.

I walked downstairs and decided to make Richie breakfast. I got done cooking and jogged upstairs to his room. "Richie." I walked in and saw a shirtless Richie standing there before me. "Oh my god! I'm so sorry!" I covered my eyes. I was blushing so hard. "Hey it's okay." He laughed at me.
~Time Skip~
We were walking to school and I couldn't stop getting more nervous. "Are you okay?" Richie asked me. "Yeah, I'm just nervous. What happens if no one wants to be friends with me?" He sighed, "Then you can hangout with me and the Losers' Club." "The Losers' Club?" "Yeah me and my friends are known as the losers in school so we made a club.. it's kind of sad when I say it out loud." I chuckled, "Okay."
~Another Time Skip~
We got our schedules and I have all the same classes with Richie. Yes! I met Richie's friends and they were really funny and nice. The first loser I met was Bill. He had a stutter which I thought was just adorable. He seemed to be like the leader of the club. I felt bad for him though cause Richie told me about Georgie but I didn't mention it. He deserved better. Then I met Stan and Mike. They were really sweet. I kept laughing at Stan's voice cracks. Lastly, I met Beverly and Ben. Ben was really interesting. His research was unbelievable! Beverly was really nice to me. It's nice to have another girl in the group. I looked in her eyes and she looked damaged. She looked like what I look like after my mom abuses me. That look. But I didn't question it. We just met that would be horrible. We all talked for a while. We shared stories and jokes. It was fun. Until Beverly started crying. "What's wrong Bev?" I asked her in concern. "I-I don't want to go home." Her voice cracked. "My dad.." she choked. "What about your dad?" Why did I just ask that? Retard! *Mental Facepalm* "He um.." she looked down. "You don't have to say anything I get it." Richie spoke up, "Of course you do because your mom beats the shit out of you." He said trying to joke about it but failed. Horribly. "What?!" Everybody asked in unison. "Richie! What the fuck?!" I stared at him with tears slowly forming. "What? It's true isn't it?" Did he not acknowledge that it was a personal problem and that I only told him cause I trusted him? I ran off towards the woods. Why would he do that? Especially to me?

Eddie's POV

"What the fuck Richard?" (Hehe ;)) I scolded him. "What?" Richie asked confused as to what he did wrong. Everybody started whispering and shaking their heads. "Are you really that retarded? You shouldn't have shared her business like that dipshit!" He looked at me confused for a second. Then his eyes widened, "oh shit!" He yelled taking off towards the direction Y/N ran off to. "Dumbass." I whispered.

Y/N's POV

I was sitting on a cliff with a lake under me. I sat there with no emotion. I was lost in my thoughts. I couldn't tell if I should be mad or sad. Why would Richie do that to me? I thought he cared about me. I guess not that much, huh? I snapped out of my thoughts as I felt a hand on my shoulder. I jumped. "Chill its just me." Richie's voice said. I refused to look at him. I was upset. Richie sat next to me and sighed. I looked at the view. It was gorgeous. "I'm sorry." Richie spoke up. "That was really insensitive of me and I shouldn't have said anything. You trusted me and I broke that trust." I looked at him and he was staring at me. "I forgive you." I replied.  I can't stay mad at him. He all of a sudden smirked at me. "What?" I asked kind of worried about what he was thinking about. He stood up and took with shirt off. Damn! Stop it Y/N! Then he took his shorts off. Woah! "What are you doing?" I asked him trying not to blush at the fact that he was half naked right now. "Hopefully this can make up for my stupid trashmouth." He said then jumped off the cliff. "Richie!" That was a really long way down. I leaned over to see his tiny head pop up from the water. "C'mon Y/N!" He faintly yelled. I took off my clothes (besides my under wear obviously) and hesitantly jumped off the cliff. I almost landed on Richie but oh well. We swam together and had a splash war.
~Time Skip~
We got out of the lake and sat on a rock. I couldn't help but notice him staring at me. "What's up Tozier?" I smirked at him. He turned red and looked up at the sky. The sun was setting and the other losers already went home. I chuckled and looked at the sunset. We sat there in silence until I felt something touch my hand. I looked down and saw Richie's hand on top of mine. I looked up at him. He was still looking at the sky but he had the biggest smile on his face. I smiled and looked away. "I like you Y/N." I looked over at him, "You what?!"
