BIG FAT TRIGGER WARNING PEOPLE

After Will and Richie shared their loving moment, the losers one by one started to wake up. Bev yawned and blinked herself awake, her eyes set on Richie and almost immediately she jumped off Ben before running over to him.
One by one the losers all woke to greet Richie, surrounding him with gentle hugs while tears of happiness and sadness shed. When they all pulled away to give him some space Richie looked around the room, searching for someone before speaking,
"Where's Eddie?"
The losers fell silent, they each exchanged glances at one another, all asking the same question. 'Who's gonna tell him.' Richie furrowed his eyebrows slightly and spoke again, "where is he?" Will sighed and looked over at him, "we didn't think you wanted him here after what happened." The raven haired boys face expression softened after hearing those words, he gave a small nod before speaking in a quiet voice, "could you... call him over..?" His fingers began to dance around each other. Mike stood up straight after wiping his face from the tears, "Sure.. I'll be back." He then left the room.
Bev looked down at Richie and his eyes met hers, you could tell she had so many questions on her mind. Will saw the look on her face and gestured everyone to go out and give them space, so they all left as well.
Once they were gone, Bev bursted into tears quietly, Richie looked away with a few tears himself. She took in a deep but shaken breath, "Richie why..."
"I don't know..." but he knew.
"Why! You don't just decide to cut for no reason Richie!" She cried out in fury. Bev knew what Richie went through at home, and what he was diagnosed with. She hated the idea of him getting hurt seeing at how close these two are and have been for years.

The first person he came out to was bev, she was the first person who knew about his little crush for guys, she's the only person who knows about his mother and father, Bev was the first person who knew about his depression.

"Because I hate myself as much as everyone else does okay Beverly?! I used this," he exclaimed lifting his bandaged arm slightly, "as a way of coping with all of this shit! My mum hates me, so does everyone else! It would've been better if I had actually gotten into my fucking veins!" Bev looked at him speechless, her watery eyes were wide as one single tear fell. "You think we hate you Richie.."
Richie looked down and hung his head. "You're apart of our family... We care about you so much.." Bev walked over and sat on the bed beside him, gently grabbing his hand in a platonic way, "You're my little brother Rich.. and Will loves you more then anything... and your sister, ruby... she loves you.."
Richie cried more before pulling Bev into a hug tightly.

"Please don't do this..."

While this went on the crew outside sat in silence and listened, Mike was outside on the phone to Eddie.
Eddie stumbled tiredly downstairs picking up the phone and spoke it a raspy voice. "Hello Eddie kaspbrak speaking." He yawned.
"Hey Eddie, it's me, Mike." Mike leaned against the wall inside of the booth.
"Oh hey, hi.. what's up?" Eddie rubbed his eye trying to wake himself up, "Well.. as you know, Richie's in hospital. He woke up a whole ago and he wants to see you to talk about something."
Eddie let out a soft sigh, "okay.. how is he?" He felt his heart skip a beat or two.
"He's doing fine, but I think he's just putting on a show for us to make it seem like he's tough." Mike mumbled a little, Eddie nodded a little.
"Right, well, give me a few minutes. I'm going to need to sneak out so my mum doesn't know."
"Thanks eds."
