High School

It universe, none of these characters are mine. No clown tho. Only clown is me. 

Eddie was annoyed. Like, really annoyed. His best friend Richie Tozier was talking about this girl he liked to the other Losers, and it took all of his self control not to scream in rage.

"And she has these like soft hands. They're so just... petite. You know? And her hair... Fuck, her hair..." 

Stanley had been sitting with his head on his hands for the last hour. 

"We get it! You have like for this girl. What's her name, anyway?" He burst out. Richie laughed nervously, and pushed his glasses up his nose. Eddie just couldn't figure out why he got so angry everytime Richie talked about this girl. 

"Her name is Jade." His eyes went soft. Eddie grit his teeth, fuming.

"Her eyes..." Richie began trailing off again, and Eddie couldn't help but hear every word.

Why am I so angry? I should be happy for Rich. Eddie thought to himself. He stood up abruptly.

"I need to go. My inhaler is... running low." And with that Eddie rushed out of the crowded cafeteria. Of course, Eddie's inhaler wasn't low. Anytime it got close he went back to the pharmacy straight away, otherwise his mother would kill him. Eddie rushed into the nearest toilet stall and slammed the door closed. He felt hot tears run down his face.

"What's wrong with me?" He choked out silently. He thought that in high school things would change. But he didn't think of how much it would change. All of a sudden, Bev and Ben were dating, Mike had a girlfriend, and everybody knew about Stan and Bill crushing on each other. Now Richie liked this random girl and Eddie felt left out. He just wished things would go back to normal.

*time skip a week later*

"Guys, this is Jade. Jade, the guys." 

"Hi!!! I'm Jade! Richie's told me SO much about you!" She was too bubbly. Eddie hated her immediately. The others said hello back to her, and Stan rolled his eyes when he thought nobody was looking. Bev was crossing her fingers behind her back while she said, "It's lovely to meet you!" 

Mike was the only one who seemed to genuinely be nice to her, but she ignored him completely. He grit his teeth at Eddie when Jade and Richie had turned around. Richie ran his fingers through his long, curly dark hair and grinned at Jade. She was laughing hysterically at one of his bad jokes. 

"Beep beep Richie." Eddie said in response to the joke, not even sure what he said. It was just habit at this point.

"Beep beep?" Jade asked, confused.

"I-I-it's our w..w..w...way of telling h..h..him to s..s..shut up." Bill said to her.

"G..g...good to know." She laughed at her own joke. The others stared at her, and Richie giggled nervously. 

"You found a keeper Rich." Eddie said sarcastically. Jade didn't pick up on the sarcasm.

"Aww thank you! That's so nice of you to say! Especially with your...condition." 

Eddie had pulled out his inhaler and started to fiddle with it without realising, and Jade was staring at it.

"You know, people with asthma are more likely to die young." She said casually. 

"Ok, that's it barbie!" Bev snapped. 

"You can't just come here, make fun of Bill's stutter, look at Mike like he has a disease and tell our Eddie he'll die young!" 

Jade laughed nervously. Bev could be quite intimidating when she wanted to be. 

"Bev it was just a mistake-" Richie started to say.

"Mistake? Richie she's a bitch!" Beverly yelled.

"She's standing right here." Jade said calmly.

"What do you think about her Eddie?" Richie asked Eddie, his eyes pleading. Eddie swallowed the lump in his throat. 

"In all honesty Rich... I don't like her. But maybe it's nothing to do with her at all, and just the fact my best friend since childhood now suddenly likes girls and he's leaving me alone and-" Eddie cut himself off and realised what he said.

"Suddenly likes girls? Like...you don't Ed's?" His eyes were searching Eddie's face intently."Oh so your one of them. Well it was nice while it lasted. Bye Richie." Jade got up and left. It was then Eddie realised something while Richie stared at him. Eddie was gay. And he was totally and completely in love with his best friend.

"I mean why the fuck would I be gay because that's so fucking stupid-"

"Eddie... I never said anything about being gay."

"Shit." Eddie mumbled.

"Congratulations, you are officially the last person to know." Stanley said sarcastically.

"We should go." Ben said suddenly, and stood up. Bev took his hand, and Mike followed them.

"I don't wanna see anything that happens here." Stanley said, and grabbed Bill by the arm.

"M..m..me either." He smiled at the two.

"B..b..bye."

The second that they all left Richie turned to Eddie, smiling stupidly. 

"I never really liked Jade. She was the biggest bitch. I just felt like I had to like her because.... well because the person I really like...love even... well I didn't think he could ever feel the same." Richie was rambling. He pushed his glasses back up his nose. Eddie glanced around, and took a step closer. He felt like he was being eaten alive from the inside by butterflies, and knew it was a matter of time before Richie embarrassed himself.

Could he.... Could he feel the same?  Eddie was shocked, but so happy.

"Beep beep dickhead."

Richie didn't stop rambling about nothing. Eddie breathed through his nose, and grabbed Richie by the back of his head, his fists full of hair. 

"I said shut up." He grumbled, and pressed his lips to Richie's, standing on his tippy toes. Eddie could have died and been resurrected in the time that the kiss lasted. He could have simply stood there forever, but that wasn't the case.

Richie pulled back, keeping his nose level to Eddie's. 

"Oh." Richie mumbled, and he beamed, shoving his glasses up his nose one more time.

"Eh, it was alright. I mean, you're no Tom Holland. But your alright, I guess." Eddie shrugged.

"Oh shut up you gremlin." Richie grinned and kissed Eddie again.

Well that was my first fan fiction. Ever. Hope you liked it, and I'm trying to make them canon but fluffy at the same time so yeah. Feel free to correct any grammatical errors. Will be updating soonish! 

I don't know how to end this so *yeets out of existence*
