RICHIE'S POV

"Eds!" I cried. "I'm sorry, I didn't mean it!"

"Stop, Richie!" Eddie cut me off, exhausted. "Why can't you be serious for once? Why do you always have to make jokes and be so Goddamn annoying?"

That hurt. The look on his face as soon as the words left his lips read immediate regret and guilt, but before he could utter an apology, I waved him off.

"You know why" I whispered. "I'm sorry that I tease you all the time, and I'm sorry I can't be serious for two seconds but I thought you woulda fucking figured that out by now"

He looked taken aback yet confused at the same time. He stepped closer.

"Okay, Rich" he said gently. "What is it? Why can't you be serious? I get you like to be playful and everything, but you can't just joke around all the time. So why can't you ever be serious?"

I bit my lip and turned to face him. His eyes were pleading with me for an answer and his arms were crossed. I panicked.

"It's because your mom likes me playful" I muttered, but he heard it.

"Oh my God, fuck you!" Eddie cried, and turned away from me.

"Eddie, please, I panicked! That's not what I meant, I'm sorry!" I pleaded, but he didn't want to hear it.

He turned quickly, his eyes filled with anger, disappointment, and sadness all in one as he glared at me.

"Go to hell" he said coldly, and slammed his bedroom door shut.

I could hear him sobbing as he slumped to the floor.

"So fucking stupid" I sobbed as I cursed at myself.

I slid to the floor and sat against Eddie's door. I could still hear him crying behind me. I smacked my forehead hard and slammed my fists into my knees.

"I'm sorry, Eds. I'm so sorry" I apologized sheepishly.

I stood up gently and placed my hand on the door.

"I'm sorry, Eds" I whispered. "I'm sorry. I'll make it up to you, I promise"

I turned around and left. I'd make it up to him, but first, there was something I had to do...or buy, I should say.

EDDIE'S POV

I slammed my door and started sobbing as I fell to the ground. Richie can never be serious. It always annoys the hell out of me, but I usually let it go because I know that's just how he is.

But I was genuinely trying to tell him something, ask him something serious, but he just made a joke, yet again.

I love him. Sometimes he makes me think he feels he same, but he can never be serious so I can never tell. It's extremely frustrating, but tonight it just made me snap.
