"There's not much of a reason for me to stay here. Besides the fact that you're here, Eds."

☆ "You light up my world like stars do the night sky," ☆ Richie Tozier's world was a dark one. Full of anxieties and fears that left him broken. His only hope was his best friend, Eddie Kaspbrak. Who wasn't having an easy time at home himself. Eddie was his silver lining and a force seemed to pull Richie towards him. He was like a drug, the depressed boy really needed him, craved him even. He was addicted to his touch and the comfort he provided. He lit up Richie's life when times were at their darkest. He was a real star. Okay. I'm scared so, All songs belong to the original owners. Thank you. Also, all characters belong to Stephen King. Not me.
