Richie leans against a tree as Eddie climbs out of the clubhouse.

"What took you so long?" "Why do you wanna know dipshit?" "Because I have to walk you back, or you would get stuck out here. That's why."

The two start to walk. Richies hands in his jean pockets and Eddies arms tightly crossed to keep the cold nightly air away. Which doesn't work very well.

"Oh fuck off." "Okay fine, I guess you'll be stuck out here. Use your creativeness to find your way out." Richie stops in his tracks. So does Eddie. "I don't understand why you have to be so fucking rude to me. We just met."

Richie's hands grip Eddies shoulders, pushing him against a tree. "This is how I am, if you don't like it so be it." His voice comes out harsh and aggressive. Eddie slightly flinches.

"Fine then, just get us out of here. We don't have to be friends anyways. And don't try to fucking talk to me anyways." Eddie pushes Richie out of the way, and starts to walk. He remembers slightly where to go.

Once Eddie gets home he finds some food on the table. A note beside it.

"Here's some food, see you in the morning. :) -Ben"

Ben is so nice Eddie thinks to himself.

Eddie sits down and starts to eat, getting a text.

Bev📌: Hey did you get home?
Eddie: yeah, Richie was being a dick though
Bev📌: of course he was, what happened?
Eddie: I offered him a hand to stand up, he pushed me out of the way and asked me what's wrong.
Eddie: I told him he was being fucking rude and he got mad about it, pushed me against a tree.
Bev📌: I'm sorry, he does that a lot. He did it to Mike once, he's been afraid of Mike for a bit.
Eddie: what happened?
Bev📌: he was making a joke about Mike not having enough courage and Mike pinned him on the ground while everyone yelled for him to stop.
Bev📌: he basically told Richie if he makes another joke like that he would punch him, Richie and Mike are still good friends.
Bev📌: Not as much as he is with Stanley. Richie and Stanley are inseparable. Best friends since they met.
Eddie: oh okay, I'll see you tomorrow:)
Bev📌: Gn :)
