     It was getting late. Richie knew he had to be home by 9:30 but never listened to what his parents said. They were alcoholics and didn't pay much attention, till tonight.
     "We'll i should be heading home i should have been home 30 mins ago" Richie says to the losers. "Ok see yah" Eddie says. They all say a form of good bye, and Richie left.

     30 mins of riding back to his house it is now 10:30.

     Richie walks through the door of his house. "Where have you been." Richie's dad said from the couch obviously drunk. "I was w-with the boys"
     "You know you need to be home by 9:30" His dad wouldn't stop and stood up "yes im sorry dad it wont happen again." Richie says trying to reason with his father "Sorry? That's funny because it happens every single night and i never got a sorry" he walked over to his son and pushed him against the wall.
     "Dad please don't do this" Richie cried "do what?" He says smashing a whiskey bottle against the wall next to Richie's scared face. Richie's dad punched him. "You need to listen to me more often do you fucking hear me?" Richie's dad yelled.
     "Y-yes dad i hear you" Richie cry's. "Good" he says and grabs a piece of broken glass off the floor and cuts Richie's arm open "because next time it won't be your arm." He punches Richie once more in the gut, walks to the couch and passes out.
     Richie walked to his room after cleaning up the glass. He packs his bag with pajamas, 3 outfits, some food, and all the cash he had stashed away exactly $589. He then opens his window and sneaks out.

     He put his bag in the front basket of his bike and rides away not quite sure were he was gonna go.
     After 50 mins of riding around town he decided to ride to Eddie's house.
     He dropped his bike next to his best friends house and climbed the tree next to his room. He sat on the tree branch and debated wether he should knock or not.
     He watches the boy in his room pull out a box from his closet. He knew that he had it but was never allowed to open it. Eddie figured Richie and the guys would make fun of him.
     Eddie pulls out a white sweater obviously from the mall. And he put it on he then pulled out a blue skirt and put that on as well. He admired himself in the mirror and noticed the boy that had been watching him through the mirror and freaked out.
     Eddie quickly closed the curtains and went for his inhaler. He quickly changed into his boy clothes and hid the box of stuff. He then opened the curtains. And let the boy in. "Hey Uhm i can explain." Eddie trys to explain what was happening to Richie. "No it's fine you don't have to explain just answer one question..Eddie..are you gay?" Richie faced the small boy.
     "Uh..agh yeah i am i didn't think i would have to come out to anyone until a lot later." Richie turned around and went to the closet "so you just have a box of girl stuff?" Richie says while grabbing a red headband "oh Uh yeah Its just so much fun to play with" Eddie seemed anxious.
     "Huh" he put the headband on and turned to face Eddie "am i pretty?" Eddie took the head band and didn't respond "Hey Eddie I'm serious i didnt think I would say this but I'm gay also.." Eddie looked up and was surprised "wait you are?" Richie walked closer to the boy a few inches shorter than him.
     "Yeah" Richie then pulled Eddie into a deep meaningful kiss. "Fuck Richie I have loved you since 6th grade.." Eddie leaned back and took a better look at Richie "uhm Rich what the fuck is wrong with you" Richie looked up "what? Whats wrong Ed"
     "Richie your arm and your face and.." He lifted up Richie's shirt and traced where he was starting to bruise.
