RICHIES POV

It had been weeks since I last saw Eddie, I knew he was back from wherever his mum took him but when I tried to see him his mother stopped me every time... I really missed him and I needed to know what's wrong with him, So I headed to his house. I knew his mom wouldn't let me through the front door, I had tried that many times before, so I snuck around the back of his house and climbed up to his bedroom window. I could see him sitting on his bed twiddling with his inhaler so I knocked on his window.

EDDIES POV

I was scared... my mom had kept me in here for weeks, only letting me out for food and to go to the bathroom. I knew she was going to keep me in here until my "sickness" was gone.. but I knew that wasn't going to happen so I had no idea what to do... I was all alone and if I'm being honest.. I was kind of scared. But then I heard a knock on my window, at first I thought a bird hit it or something but then I turned and saw Richie, I quickly closed my door and slowly and quietly opened my window.

NOBODIES POV

"Richie what are you doing here?!" Eddie said whispering quietly. "Your mom wouldn't let me see you and I thought something was wrong.." . "I-i'm fine! But you have to go!" Eddie said hearing his mother slowly walking up the stairs. Richie could see the worried look on eddies face so he climbed in then took eddies hand "Eddie what happened? You look worried and you haven't been outside in weeks!" There was a large creek as eddies door opened and his mother stood at the door,Eddie quickly took his hand away. "What is he doing here Eddiebear? I thought I told you to stay away." She said angrily. "I just came to give him some school work Mrs K.." Richie said seeing how angry she looked. "Have you told him what you told me Eddiebear?."
"N-no mommy.."
His mother gave him a look as if to say to do it right now, she slammed the door and went downstairs. "What's she talking about Eds?.."
Eddie looked down at the ground "I don't like you like you like me.." he tried not to cry, and so did Richie. "W-what?.... but you said you did... nd you k-kissed me.." Richie said heart broken. "I just felt b-bad for you!... but I'm not like you... it's d-disgusting!" "o-oh... okay..." Eddie looked up at Richie and could see him tearing up. "I guess I'll just h-have to stay with your mom then" he gave a broken smile then climbed out his window and ran. Eddie watched as he ran away and he started to cry, his mother came in soon after "see? Your almost better Eddiebear." Eddie pretended to smile then sat on his bed heartbroken.

RICHIES POV

I ran as fast as I could to somewhere I could be alone, I was heartbroken... how could I be so stupid? Of course he didn't like me. I sat in the clubhouse and cried, I knew nobody would be there because of the time. I knew this wasn't like Eddie but I was to upset to even consider anything except that he found me disgusting and felt sorry for me..
