"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..?
"R-Richie.." I run over to him holding him tight "Oh my god Richie I'm so sorry" is all I could say over and over "I'm so sorry" "I'm so sorry" he cries into my shoulder

"T-they're gone f-fore-ever" he sobs into my chest "let's sit down" I say moving us over to the couch. I wait until he calms down before asking him what happened "I know this is sudden but can you tell me what happened?" I ask a tear rolling down my face, "O-ok" he says
(FLASHBACK)
Richies pov
"Goodnight mom, goodnight dad!" I say kissing them on the cheeks before rushing off to my room. "Love you!" They yell back and I get in my pjs and go to bed *CRASH* I hear coming from down stairs. "W-what was that?" I whisper to myself getting out of bed I hear screaming then silence "Mom?" Dad?" I whisper looking around, I rush to there bedroom to see no one there and the window wide open with a note on there bed "Beep beep Richie" it said in red bloody letters.

I cover my mouth in shock tears rolling down my checks "MOM?? DAD??" I scream looking everywhere. There no where.."MOM! DAD!" I scream covering my face. The neighbors must have called the cops cause I heard a knock on the door, I ran and opened it to see a police officer "Hello, we got a complaint from one of the neighbors, is everything alright..?" He says looking at me

"N-no" I sob looking down, I rush to grab the note and gave it to him "They're gone." I whisper looking up at him "Who? Who's gone little boy?" He says looking at the note "Are you Richie?" He looks at me "Y-yeah.." I say tears running down my face "Who's gone Richie?" He says concerned "My parents" I say "what do they look like and what happened?" He says grabbing out his walkie talkie murmuring something in it.

I run over and grab a photograph of us "H-here" I say giving him the picture "I was in bed and I-i heard a crash, then screaming and they were gone.." I say looking at him "Thank you, may we come in?" He asks "S-Sure" I say moving aside so he can come in. The police search my house and find a window that's been broken and open by there bed, they told me someone kidnaped my parents.

After that I had to go to court and answer questions about what happened and could I have known anyone to do that. "Do you have any clue who could have done this?" A man asks me showing me pictures of the broken window and the note "No.." I say looking at them remembering what happened. "Thank you Richie." He says letting me sit down.

They tracked the finger prints but it didn't match up with anyone in the state or even the country. We never figured out who did it..

Richies pov
"O-oh my god Richie.." Eddie says crying "I always try to make bad situations better..that's why when a burglar broke in I called the pizza place." I say tears rolling down my checks. Eddie hugs me "You didn't deserve this" he whispers "It's ok Eddie" I say.

We hear a knock on the door, I nod for Eddie to get it and he gets up and opens the door "Hello does Richie Tozier live here?" A mans voice asks "Uh..Yes he is" Eddie says nervously "He's under arrest for the murder or his family" he says coming in and handcuffing me.

Eddies Pov
"W-wait WHAT??" I scream as Richie gets arrested looking confused "N-no I didn-" He starts "You must remain quiet anything you say can be counted against you." The officer says as he goes outside putting Richie in his police car "Wait!!" I scream running after his police car but it's to fast..I get on my bike pedaling after him.

I follow him all the way down to the sowers "The sowers.?" I mutter biking quickly after him. He stops and opens his door with Richie beside him and he goes inside the sowers "Aw man really??" I get annoyed thinking of all the germs and things that can be in there "For Richie" I say taking a puff from my inhaler following after him and going down the sowers.

"Ew ew eewww" I whisper looking around. I walk slowly making sure not to be heard or seen, I see the cop go up stairs and Richie dragged behind him and I wait until I hear them up and I start climbing up until *BAM*

Richies pov
Who is this guy?? Why are we going into the sowers? We start going up stairs when I look behind me and see Eddie. "Eds!" I whisper, I'm guessing the officer heard me *BAM* I hear and I see Eddie laying down "NOOO WHY DID YO-" I start *BAM* I'm out cold.

Eddies pov
I wake up, "Where am I..?" I whisper looking down seeing I'm tied up in a chair. "W-what the fuck?!" I stutter getting nervous, I look up and see a man. The police officer "Hey watch the language" he says angrily. "Where's Richie?" I say "Look beside you" He says smiling at me, I turn beside me to see Richie in a chair out still. "I'll wake him up." The cop gets up and goes beside him "WAKE UP" he screams and Richie jumps waking up.

"WHAT THE HELLS YOU'RE PROBLEM?" I scream at him "Look kid you better shut you're yap" he looks at me "And what if I don't?" I ask "Oh well this might need some using.." he says walking over and grabbing a knife. "S-shit" I hear Richie whisper tears rushing down his face, "You're not a cop are you? You the fucker that killed my parents. You wrote that note, you were the one who broke my window with a brick and a ballon tied to it. You ruined my life.." he says looking at the man anger in his eyes.

I've never seen him like that before "Uh oh you figured me out" the man says laughing like crazy and he walks over to Richie gripping his face. "Whatcha gonna do.?" He whispers slamming Richie back down on the chair, "Why..WHAT DID I EVER DO TO YOU?!" he screams at the man "You're parents didn't tell you everything Rich.." he says walking around "Didn't tell me what?" Richie asks confused "They weren't who you think they were." The man says looking at Richie "W-what are you talking about" Richie whispers.

What is happening? "They killed my family.." he looks at Richie angrily "And I decided to do the same.." he laughs walking around getting a saw "How do y'all wanna die..?" He asks showing weapons "No please Eddie didn't do anything!!" Richie cries "He was gonna save you." He smiles at me "Why were you gonna save him?" The cop asks me "I uh, uh.." I stutter "WHY?" He screams "BECAUSE I LIKE HIM" I scream crying.

"You w-what.?" Richie asks looking at me surprised "Aw how cute..saving you're little crush! Well now you get to die with him" The cop says grinning wildly. He runs and grabs a saw turning it on and running towards Richie "NO!" I scream *BOOM* I gun fires, the cop falls down "Are y'all alright?!" We hear a mans voice, another cop approaches us "Oh thank god!" I say smiling the man unties us and brings us back to my house. "So what you said back there.." Richie smiles at me "Oh uh.." I say awkwardly.

"Let's go up to my room before my mom gets back from work" I say changing the subject running up to my room. We sit down on my bed "so.." I start trying to make small talk "What do you wanna-" I get cut off by feeling another pair of lips on mine. Richies k-kissing me??
