Well, we are in infirmary, that asshole punched Richie, my Richie, in the face, and his nose it's bleeding.
"Hey, you okay?" I ask, even if the answer would be really obvious.
"How could I be? My nose it's bleeding, I guess i'm really fine" He answer to me with a sarcastic tone.
I looked away for the embarrassment.
Bill, Ben, Stan and Mike were outside waiting for me and Rich, while the nurse was just coming for medicate him.
"Oh god, what appended here?" She ask worried.
"Nothing i just fell in to the ground" Richie answer really quickly lying.
I look at him confused, why should he lie? I mean, Henry Bowers would be in detention and after that he would kick his ass, but, i still don't get it.

It's been 30 minutes since the medication and we are now in class for our Math lesson, which is really boring.
I'm stearin' at him, my mind is in an other place, imagining Richie and I... God i need to stop, i have to fight my feelings, I don't wanna ruin our friendship.
But, his dark eyes are so deep and i get lost inside them, his beautiful freckles, i've counted 'em, his hair.. his everything.
I just wish he could feel the same as I.
Suddenly I heard the voice of someone calling me, I jumped in scared and turn around for see who was.
Stan.. always him, distracting me from watching my future husband (i hope so).
"What do you want Stanley" I ask.
"The lesson it's finished buddy, are you sleeping or what" He advises me while laughing.
"Oh, i see, i was distracted sorry" I quickly say.
"Yeah dude, distracting admiring Richie" He smirks.
"Shut the fuck up" I say while bringing my stuff and moving out the class.
"Hey Eds!" Someone called me, i knew exactly who it was.
"Hey Rich".
"Mh, i was wandering.. if maybe, this afternoon, would you like to come with me to the lake" He asks leaving me in shock.
"Ehm, for sureeee" I hope i'm not blushing right now.
"Amazing". "Yes".

The bell was ringing as the school has finished for that day, luckily.
We run away hoping to not meet Henry and his friends.
"Shit, such a great day huh" Bill says sarcastically.
"A lot" Ben laughs.
"How's your nose?" Stanley asks looking at Richie.
"Couldn't be better" He says, and we all laughed.
"He's a fucking asshole" I added.
"Yeah he completely is" Bev said while coming to us.
We all waved at her.
"H-how are y-y-you Bev?" Bill stammered.
"Good what about you guys" She said.
"Pretty good" We said all together.
"Wanna hang out later?" She asked with a smile.
Everyone agreed except for me and him.
"Ehm sorry Bev, me and Eddie gotta go in a place later" He said.
"Oh, no problem" She smiled again.

It's 4 pm and i'm waiting for Richie. I'm scared, i don't know why would he want to hang out just with me and not with all the losers club as always.
Maybe he wanna tell me something, maybe he wanna ask me why i was staring at him this morning, or maybe he wanna end our friendship... I'm too paranoid.
My thoughts were interrupted from the sound of a bike in the street, i looked up in front of me and it was him.
"Get your ass up and bring your bike" He said.
"Gentle as always huh" I rolled my eyes.
I bring my bike and start following him to the lake that he was talking about this morning.
After 6 minutes we arrived there and we put our bikes near a giant tree.
"Wow it's a-amazing, when did you find this place? I've never seen it before" I said in shock.
"Yes i know right?, well i've funded it couple days ago" He said looking away.
We stayed in silence for a couple minutes that seemed years, it was a little bit awkward but suddenly he started to talk breaking that silence.
"The reason why i took you here.." He start to say but he blocked looking behind me.
I turn my head back to the side and there was nothing so i turned back raising my eyebrows in sign of question and I find him really close to me.
"So?" I said.
"Eddie.." He lain in closer to me and i raise my head up to look him in the eyes.
"Yes..". "I-i, kinda have feelings for you".
He spit out making me blushing really hard.
I didn't expect that, never i would imagine him to say it, never in a million times.
I thought i was dreaming so i pinched my arm.
I look back at him and he was blushing too.
