Eddie
Eddie: I swear he's so stupid!
I pulled my knees into my chest and buried my face. Bill sat next to me on the bed and put a hand on my shoulder
Eddie: how could he kiss her?
Stan: and sleep with her...
I looked up at Stan who was being shushed by Bill. I stood up from the bed and Stan gave me a nervous smile
Eddie: he fucked that walking std?!?
He nodded and I fell back on to my bed. Tears rolled down the side of my face
Eddie: that's great! Fuckin great! It really didn't mean anything to him when I said I loved him!
Bill: he d-did say he l-loved you
Stan: Yeah! After he fucked the girl that stole your last boyfriend!
Bill: Stan!
Stan: it's true!
Eddie: I knew I shouldn't of fallen for him...
Bill: he w-was a nice guy.... maybe y-you should talk to
h-him?Stan: did you not hear me tell him to stay away from Eddie??
Eddie: Good. I don't want to see him.
And as if on cue, my phone buzzed on my desk and Bill picked it up since he was closer
Bill: e-eddies phone
He said a few "ok"s and "yeah". Stan and I watched as his face dropped and he looked down at his beat up converse
Bill: o-okay... well b-be there
He hung up and I looked at the phone contact. It was "chee❤️"
Bill gave me my phone and looked up at meBill: we h-have to go to th-the hospital
~
And with that we drove to the hospital, a silent car ride as I looked out the window.
Stan: What did he say?
Bill: it wasn't h-him. His mom
Eddie: why would his mom call me from his phone?
Bill: I d-don't know. We just
n-need to get thereWe stopped in the parking lot and Bills silence was getting annoying.
Eddie: why?! Just tell me!!
Bill: He tried to kill himself Eddie!!
His voice was clear but afraid. Stan looked at him with wide eyes and my chest hurt.
I got out of the car and ran as fast as I could inside. I stopped at the receptionists desk
Eddie: I need Richie Toziers room please
Before she could answer Maggie came up behind me and put a hand on my shoulder
Maggie: follow me Eddie
She led me and the others down a long hallway. She looked like she'd been crying for hours
Maggie: I called you, well, because you were the only contact he had on his phone...You must be important to him
Eddie: He's important to me too...
He tried to kill himself...
Because of me?
