I'm Useless | Reddie and Stenbrough

{10} They're not your kids

As Maggie moved closer she pushed Bill, Stan, and Mike out of the way. The boys tried to move back over so they could protect their small friend. That's when she did it. She punched Eddie straight in the face.

"MOM! WHAT THE FUCK ARE YOU DOING! HES NOT YOUR KID! NONE OF THEM ARE!"  "Don't you dare speak to me like that!"
"Don't you dare hit him!"

"Richie it's fine," Eddie said choking back tears so he didn't look weak. That's when a nurse cane in with a noice complaint. "There's been a noice complaint for this room." "Please make her leave," Richie said pointing to Maggie. "Of course, follow me ma'am." "No! I'm his mother I have a right to be here!" "Well ma'am if he asks us to escort you then we must escort you, now follow me to the waiting room please." The nurse said very nicely.

"Richard I hope you know you are going back to that mental hospital you useless piece of shit!" Maggie screamed. Richie Just looked down as she left. "Going back? Like goin again?" Eddie asked very confused.

"Yeah...remember that summer I couldn't hang out at all. Well.." "Oh," Eddie said walking back over to Richie. "Oh my god Ed's your eye," Richie said putting his hand on Eddies cheek. His bandage felt weird on Eddie face.

"Is it bad?" "Sort of, I'm so sorry," Richie said. Eddie grabbed Richies hand and held it in his, "it's ok." He said with a sweet smile.

"I'm going to get a drink of water," Stan said, "I'm g-g-gonna go w-with h-him," Bill said following Stan out the door. "They're totally gonna go make out somewhere," Richie said as everyone either laughed or rolled their eyes.

(Waiting room, 1:00pm)
As a Stan and Bill walked over to the water dispenser Stan grabbed Bills hand. Bill looked at him and smiled sweetly. "W-what a d-day," he said while laughing. "I know right."

"Y-you d-do-doing o-ok?" "It's hard seeing Richie like this, so vulnerable. It's weird." Stan said taking a drink of his water. "I w-wish h-he would-would've tal-talked to u-us." "Yeah me too."

"H-how lo-long do y-you th-think he w-will be in the h-hospital f-for? A-And t-then t-the m-mental h-hos-hospital? A-and t-then t-therapy a-after t-that?" Bill said starting to get even more worried. "I'm not sure but we will visiting him as much as we can and we will just have to see what happens." Stan said pulling Bill into a hug.

(AU sorry it's short. And sorry I didn't update yesterday, a lot of things happened and family drama stuff. But now everything calmed down. Hope you enjoyed 😊)
