Richie Tozier - The popular jock at Derry high. He's only a freshman but is already quarterback of the football team. He has girls thrown at him but he only has his eyes on one boy. Eddie Kaspbrak. Eddie Kaspbrak - The loser and resident gay kid at Derry high. He's a freshman as well but is in junior level classes. He has his eye on one boy. Richie Tozier. Both polar opposites but somehow only want one thing, to be together. They don't know it yet.

Richie's been struggling with his sexuality for years, unsure of what everyone would think of him when they found out his secret. After defeating Pennywise with the other losers, he's clueless as to where his life is leading him. Little does Richie know, Eddie is going through a very similar situation.
