Be More Chill Reacts To Be More Chill

Voices In My Head

(JEREMY wakes up in a hospital bed. Next to him is RICH, in a full body cast.)

"Wait, is this the last scene?" Christine asked sadly.

The Squip nodded. "It seems that way."

Rich and Jake looked at each other, each of them clearly disappointed that they would be losing the bets they had made earlier. Not only that, they simply wanted Michael and Jeremy to get together anyways. Bet or no bet, they were perfect for each other.

JEREMY (SPOKEN)
Hello?

(He tries to get up.)

Ow. Ow ow ow ow ow.

"Christine when she gets a paper cut," Jenna joked.

"Hey!" Christine exclaimed, playfully hitting Jenna on the shoulder.

RICH (SPOKEN)
Feelth like you're mithing a part of yourthelf, doethn't it?

"AWE!" Jake shouted. "There's that lisp~!"

Rich blushed. "Thut up."

JEREMY (SPOKEN)
...Rich?

RICH (SPOKEN)
Hurtth like a motherfucker, too.

Jeremy laughed. "True."

Be honetht: what are they thaying about me at thchool? (Beat.) That bad?

Rich frowned. He remembered how awful his first few weeks back to school had been. People had been calling him names and shoving him around. It was like he was back to freshman year all over again. Luckily, his friends had his back. Jake had even punched some jock in the face after he made fun of Rich's lisp. Rich chuckled a little bit at the memory, causing Jake to look down at him.

"What are you thinking about?"

Rich shook his head and smiled a little. "Nothing."

JEREMY (SPOKEN)
Sorry...

RICH (SPOKEN)
Don't be. I'm better off. That evil Tic Tac

The Squip rolled his eyes.

wath thtarting to thay thome theriouthly methed up thtuff. "Thquip the thchool to make everyone happy." Crathy, right?

"Cough cough," Michael said.

Jeremy sighed and punched his arm.

JEREMY (SPOKEN)
Yeah, crazy.

RICH (SPOKEN)
When I get outta here, the ladieth are gonna learn to love the real Richard Goranthki. (an epiphany) And the dudeth. Oh my god, I'm totally bi!

Jake smirked and laughed, kissing Rich on the lips sweetly.

JEREMY (SPOKEN)
Your squip's gone? But how?

"Are you serious?" Michael asked with a slight laugh.

Jeremy glanced down at him, clearly confused. "What?"

Michael sat up and stared at him in complete disbelief. "Rich just came out to you the second he realized he was bisexual, and you completely ignore it?"

Jeremy scoffed. "What was I supposed to say? "Congrats, man! Me too!"" He clamped his hand over his mouth as soon as he realized what he said.

Rich and Jake couldn't contain their laughter as everyone else (even Mr. Heere and the Squip) tried their best to hold it back. Except for Michael, that is. He felt a blush heat his face up, and he sheepishly looked down.
