"Bill, I'm telling you he has a crush on Stan." I whispered.

"R-Richie, w-What the he-heck are you talking a-about?" Bill asked.

"The journal." I rolled my eyes. "He has a crush on a boy with curly hair and freckles."

"You h-have c-c-curly hair and freckles." Bill laughed. "If it was me he'd say glasses." I argued. "r-read the next pa-page." Bill said.

I walked over to my tall skinny broken dresser beside my window and picked up Eddies journal. I opened the journal the page read,

Dear journal, Its me Eddie, My mom hit me again today. She does if I do a single thing wrong. So, I try to be perfect. A perfect student, a perfect friend, a perfect cook, a perfect kid, a perfect son and most of all I try to have perfect health. I hate sickness and germs, just thinking about it makes me wanna barf. Love, Eddie

I turned to the next page and saw a page... that shocked me, I turned the book over to Bill.

"Wow." he smirked not even stuttering. The book had a drawing of me with hearts all around it.

"Right?" I said. "Do y-y-ou know what th-th-this means?" Bill asked.

"Ya we need to enter him in a art competition." I smiled pushing up my glasses that were slowly falling down my face.

"Anything e-else?" Bill asks.

"Nope." I answer.

"He l-likes you." Bill yells.

"How'd you get that?" I asked.

"You k-k-know what I cant d-deal with y-you right now." Bill shouts as he walks out of my room. I could hear him going down the stairs each step sounding a little bit quieter.

THAT NIGHT

I rolled side to side. I couldn't fall asleep all I could was think about Eddie. But why? I don't like him like that. He's my best friend and besides I' straight. Right? Ugh life's so confusing . Straight or gay, why does it matter? I'm straight though. I think. No I know. Am I? Yes I am.

That night i had a dream an odd one not like my other ones about Penny wise, it went like this... I was walking and I saw Eddie on the other side of the rode. I screamed his name a hundred times he didn't hear me and then when he finally did he ran to come greet me and then a truck came speeding down the rode and it hit him. I woke up having a panic attack. I've been having dreams like that every night for the next week. One night it was about penny wise killing him, one night I killed him myself, One night he didn't even die he just hated me, One night he had a crush on Stan and they began to date, One night Henry Bowers killed him and One night... Well you see this one night Eddie and I were at the quarry watching people on the other side shoot up fire works, He had his head on my shoulder and I had my head resting on his. He looked up at me and told me he loved me but not just as a friend and then the dream ended.
