Eddies pov
Great, it's Monday. I can't stop thinking of the party..Richie and I almost kissed? That's crazy and I wouldn't have ever guessed that Richie Tozier would actually invite me to his house. He's being nicer to me, I don't know why he's usually a huge jerk! What's up with him? I walk up to Beverly angry "Why'd you leave me? MY BIKE GOT STOLEN!" I say in anger "Oh, Eddie I'm sorry I just left because i didn't want to be killed BY A BURGLAR!" She says looking at me "What happened anyways?" She asks

"Well Richie brought me up to his room and locked his door and called a pizza place, then I took it from him and called the police and they came and found no one. But some weird ballon with a brick tied on it with, you'll float to written on it and then I was going to go home but my bike was gone and Richie walked home with me" I said quickly speaking "wow ok then" she says looking at me "where's stan?" I ask looking around to see if I can see him

"oh uh he's with that Bill kid" she says closing her locker. The bell rings and we all head off to class, I walk in and sit in my usual spot up in the front. "Hello class!" Mrs Penny says smiling at us "Do y'all know what day it is?" She asks, everyone in the class groans except a couple of kids who look excited. Ben raises his hand "Time to help 5th and 6th graders?" "Yes!!" Mrs Penny says, making the kids groan even louder. "We should give it a name shouldn't we?" She says looking at us.

Richie walks in the door saying "How about we name it a waste of are times?" He says jokingly, everyone laughs as he finds a seat and sits down. She gives us are jobs for the day and we go outside. This time Richie and I have to watch the 5th graders, so while the teacher goes out we have to go inside the classroom and take names. Richie and I walk inside and sit down on chairs in front of the classroom and grab markers. "Heeeyyyy" one of the kids say, I look at him "What's your name.?" I ask him "G-Georgie" the kid says looking down. I feel bad but we're not supposed to talk so I write his name down, "Hey aren't you Bill's brother?" Richie asks Georgie "y-yeah" he stutters smiling at Richie.

"Erase his name" Richie whispers to me "Uh but they're not supposed to ta-" he cuts me off "do it" he says looking straight into my eyes. He scares me so I quickly erase his name, I'm so confused I thought we were becoming friends? What am I thinking I'm so dumb of course not he's always gonna be Richie Tozier my school bully. I sigh to myself hoping he didn't hear me, he did "What's wrong Eddie Spaghetti?" Richie asks looking at me "Don't call me that.." I whisper looking at him "Come on you can tell me!" He whisper screams at me "N-nothing! I already told you it's nothing!" I say angrily.

He stops talking to me and he draws something on his board "Haha looks it's me" He says showing me his drawing, it seems to be "him" with a 8 pack looking cool with shades on "Really Richie?" I say "What? You no likely?" He asks smirking at me "Just shut up Richie we have to listen for the kids!" I say looking back at the kids. Why did he draw that? In school!?
10 minutes later
"Hey eds" Richie whispers to me "What?" I whisper back "Can I come over after school?" He asks looking at me.

W-what? Did Richie just ask to come over after school.? "Uh why??" I ask confused looking at him "Because my house isn't very safe right now.." he says looking down "O-oh okay." I say. I bet it's because that person broke into his house..I wonder who it was? Who would do that? And why a red ballot with "you'll float too" tied to it!? So many questions that I can't figure out! Ugh..
*Bell rings*

"See ya!" Richie says walking out the classroom. I walk out after him looking for Stanley, "Stan?" I whisper opening the bathroom door. I walk in hearing laughing "What are you d-doing?" I hear a voice say "Can I kiss you?? Please!" I hear a girl voice say, is that R-Richie?! "U-uh" Richie says, then silence..I run out the bathroom. What was he doing! Why would he do that?? I walk up tears staring to form in my eyes, why do I care so much? Why do I have to care so much for him?!

I walk to my locker and Stanley comes up to me "Hey Eddie! Wait w-what's wrong?" He asks confused "Nothing!" I say looking at Stan angrily "Woah..chill out man" he says throwing up his hands. I storm off going to my next period. Richie sits beside me "Hey." He says smiling, I don't answer "Eds?" He says tapping me. I jerk his arm away aggressively "Get you're fucking hands off me" I say looking down "Wooah woah what's up eds??" He asks getting confused "I told you to STOP CALLING ME THAT!" I yell at him

"Mr Kaspbrack is everything alright?" Are teacher asks me "Can I go to the bathroom.?" I ask her, and get up and go before she can even answer. I slam one of the bathroom stall doors and slide down the bathroom floor crying. Wh-what's wrong with me? He use to be my BULLY and now I'm crying about him in a stall bathroom? I hear someone come in and knock on the stall I'm in "Occupied!" I yell "It's Richie." A familiar voice says "Go kiss you're girlfriend!" I scream at him, he crawls under the stall door "WHAT THE HE-" he cuts me off by putting his hands over my mouth "Shhhh eds" He shushes me

"So that's what this is about?" He says removing his hands "Y-Yeah.." I mutter looking down embarrassed "Hey..it's ok, and that girl came on me I pushed her off instantly" he says looking at me "God I feel so stupid." I say laughing, he laughs along with me "Why do you care so much anyways?" He asks looking at me "I-I don't know.." I say "well how about we go back to class?" He says smiling at me "okay" I say

He grabs my hand and drags me out the bathroom, he brings me to the front door of the school going out of them making sure no one sees him "W-where are we going?" I ask confused watching us skip are classrooms "Were going to get out of here" he says opening the door and going out. "I can't skip school Richie!" I say panicking "No, no it's ok we're not missing the whole day..just this class to get you looking better." He says smiling at me walking away from the school

"Where do y'all think y'all are going?!" We hear a voice behind us "RUUNNN!" Richie screams running still holding my hand making me run with him "I'll be back for y'all!" The teacher says going back inside and locking the doors so we can't get back in.
10 minutes later
We finally get to Richies house and he drags me inside, still holding my hand he goes up the stairs bringing me to his bathroom. "Ew I look discussing" I say looking at myself in the mirror "No you don't, you've just been crying that's all" he says grabbing a towel "Go lay on my couch, I'll be there soon" he says  putting on the hot water.

I walk out the room walking down stairs, I look around and see really cute old baby pictures of Richie, but none when he's this age for some reason..I wonder why..? I find the couch walking over and sitting on it. It's very comfy and I look at the TV to see what's on, "Hello, today we are going to bring something back to are attention from a couple years ago.." a man says, it seems to be ok the news. I go to switch the channel before what he's saying catches my eyes

"Do y'all remember the Tozier family?" The man says sadly looking at the woman beside him "Last time we checked on them the parents of the child Richie Tozier, were missing.." she says looking at the camera. "What..?" I say in shock "We found the missing parents dead in the water at quarry today.." the man says seriously.

"NOOO" I hear a scream behind me that seems to be Richie "THEY'RE DEADD THEY'RE DEAAADDD" He starts screaming over and over again. What have Richie not been telling me..?
