The Aftermath (Reddie)

19

Richie's POV

He was kissing a girl.

Eddie was kissing a girl.

He glanced over at me, a glazed look was cast over his eyes.

He really liked her.

I turned back to Bill and Stan.

"What's wrong Rich?" Stan asked as I tried to cover up my pouting, "those seniors aren't still threatening you are they?"

I shook my head but didn't respond further.

"I-I bet it's a-about Eddie," Bill teased and elbowed Stan.

I shot my head up to shoot a glare at Stan.

"You told him?" I asked. The only way Bill could know about my crush was from Stan.

Stan shrugged sheepishly, "sorry dude..."

I sighed, "well, you're right Bill," I muttered, "it is about Eddie."

They both waited for me to say more.

"He has a girlfriend."

Bill made an 'O' shape with his mouth and Stan started laughing.

I raised a brow at him, "what's so funny about my misery?"

"Quit the dramatics Rich," Stan giggled, "I just thought that out of the two of you, Eddie would be the first one to realize he was gay and you would have to be convinced or some shit."

I gaped at Stan.

"Well he's straight so." I grumbled.

3rd Person POV

"Is it just me or does Eddie's new 'girlfriend' look like Richie," Stan whispered into Bill's ear. His eyes were focused on the pouting boy in front of him.

Richie was slumped on the table with his head in his hands so that his cheeks were all scrunched up.

Bill took a minute to look over at where Eddie was sitting. Then he chuckled softly and nodded.

"Time to meddle," Stan sang and started to walk over to Eddie and his chic.

Bill shook his head disapprovingly as Stan walked away. Richie was too deep in his own pity party to notice his surroundings.

Eddie's POV

I was still sitting next to Mary Ann, but my face was scrunched and disgusted.

Were cooties a real thing? Cause I think I just got them from Mary Ann.

Why else would I feel this nauseated and stressed.

"Eddie!"

I flinched as someone slapped their hand down on the table.

"What the fuck dude?!" Mary Ann had been startled as well.

Stan was standing proudly as the owner of his loud and obnoxious hand.

"You must be the girlfriend!" Stan exclaimed at Mary Ann who was still glaring from being interrupted from her reading.

I was nervous as to what Stan was planning.

"That's me," she muttered and turned back to her book.

"Don't you want to know who I am?" Stan asked.

"Don't care."

"Well I am Stanley Uris, one of Eddie's delightful friends."

"I know."

Mary Ann was still engrossed in her book. I was just sitting there awkwardly.

Stan huffed, "despite looking like Richie, you are definitely not as funny." He grumbled.

Mary Ann perked up. She looked at me and grinned, like she just thought of something.

"It's Bill, right?" she asked out of the blue.

Stan gave her a confused look, "I'm sorry?" he asked.

Mary Ann grinned and leaned forward towards Stan, "he's your Eddie, am I right?"

What does that mean? I looked at Mary Ann confusedly now.

Stan was turning pink and stood up to leave.

"You fucking gay psychic," he muttered.

She grinned, "takes one to know one Stan."

I had no idea what was going on.

But Stan was walking away again and Mary Ann returned to her book so I didn't say anything about it.
