(Eddie's POV)
I woke up at 4:30 AM. Fuck. I thought this would stop by now.
Richie probably isn't gonna wake up until a few hours so I grabbed my diary. I realized that when I'm bored I just write in my diary, which isn't bad?
Dear Diary,
It's 4:30 AM. I thought this would end by now, but it hasn't. Great. I fell asleep on the ground that night, Richie did too. I don't even think his parents know that I'm here. I know that my Mom definitely knows I'm not here. My Mom hasn't texted me this morning. Probably because she doesn't know I'm gone. I did leave at night and it's not even 5 AM ,so she's probably been sleeping the whole time I've been gone. Anyways, it's 4:45 AM now, so this did waste some of my time which is good, but I'm gonna go now.
Bye
-Eddie (NOT EDS)
I closed my diary and hid it in my bag like I did the night before. I realized that I didn't get anything I needed to stay at Richie's house. Richie has a bunk bed even though he has no siblings which is kinda weird ,but good for me. I forgot my pills, my backpack with all my school stuff, and my toothbrush.
When I was done thinking about how I could maybe go back in my house and get it, I made up a plan.
'So, your Mom doesn't know you left yet (she would have definitely texted you to see where you were) so you can just go back in the house, pretend you're about to leave for school, get your backpack, put your other stuff in the backpack with it.', I thought to myself.
By the time I thought the plan out it was 5:25 AM. It was still a long time before Richie would wake up ,so I tried to fall asleep again.
I woke up because I felt something cold....It was Richie pouring a glass of water on me.
"What the fuck! Why did you do that!?", I yelled.
"You weren't waking up.", Richie said while laughing.
'It hasn't stopped ,but it's getting better because now I can fall back asleep.', I thought.
"What time is it?", I asked.
"7:00. Look at your watch next time, Eds.", he answered.
"Don't call me that. I hate it.", I said.
"You love it.", Richie said. "Anyways, what should we do today?", Richie said again.
"Well....", I said (telling him the whole plan)
"It's 7:05. We should go now, before its too late.", Richie said.
"You're right.", I told him.
I went in the bathroom and changed my clothes, because the other ones were wet.
When I was done, I came back to Richie's bedroom door and said, "Richie, are you ready yet?"
"Yea, I'm coming right now.", he answered back at me.
We walked to my house in silence. When we got there I told Richie to go by the side of my house so my Mom doesn't see him. I went in by the back door so my Mom wouldn't ask where we were.
I looked down at my watch. 7:20. Perfect.
I ran up to my room, grabbed everything I needed and ran downstairs.
"Hey, Mom. I'm about to go to school...", I said.
"Okay, you're lucky you aren't late today, Eddie Bear. Take your breakfast on the bus today."
"Okay, Mom. See you after school!", I lied.
I ran out the front door and ran over to the side of the house.
"What are you holding?", Richie asked.
"My Mom's breakfast she made for me. Where should we throw it away without her knowing?", I asked.
"Throw it away? Why? This looks good.", Richie said confused.
"I bet you there is so many drugs in this.", I told him.
"You're probably right.", Richie said.
We walked back to his house and threw it away in a trash can.
We walked back to his room.
"What are we going to do today?", I asked.
"I don't know, you pick.", he said.
"I pick? No, it was your idea to skip school today. So, you pick.", I said.
"Okay, maybe we could to go the store and buy a bunch of random shit?", Richie said.
"Why would we do that?", I asked.
"I don't know it's fun. Also I'm just trying to throw out some ideas.", Richie told me.
"Okay, let's do it?", I said.
We started the walk to the store......

Thanks for reading chapter 7! Chapter 8 coming soon.
A/N: Also, I know this chapter is short, but I thought it would be good if I left it off here ( I know I've said this before)
