Monday
Eddie walked to his first period and sat down taking out his notebooks getting ready to take notes. Richie walked in and looked at Eddie. Eddie looked up and made eye contact with Richie. Richie rolled his eyes and went to go sit down, Eddie shrugged and looked up to the front of the class.
Richie sighed and looked towards Eddie, he grabbed his phone and began texting Eddie.
TEXTING
Richie: Hey...
Eds: Why are you texting me! Can you leave me alone for a bit Richie...I'm trying to take notes.
Richie: Yeah....um....are you mad at me...for what I said?
Eds: If anything I believe you should be mad at me Rich!
Richie: Yeah....that was fucked up Eddie....but we're all good now....right?
Ed's: I guess
Richie: Okay...cool!
Eds: Let me take my notes, please!!
Richie: okay...Yeah! Sorry...
Richie put his phone away and sighed laying his head down on the desk. "Mr.Tozier please pick your head up," Mrs.Kim said softly. "No..." Richie mumbled. "Excuse me?" She raised her voice a bit. Richie looked up and gave her a dead stare "I said No!" He laid his head back down. "Get out of my classroom!" She pointed to the door. "Fucking fine!" Richie stood up and grabbed his bag placing a note on Eddie's desk and leaving the class slamming the door behind him.
Mrs.Kim groaned and continued to teach as if nothing happened. Eddie stared at the closed note biting the inside of his lip debating on if he should open it or not, he sighed and grabbed the note slowly unfolding it.

Eddie raised his eyebrows real confused he looked up at the clock "Five hours from now?" Eddie whispered to himself.
-5:00- third period
Stanley walked into the classroom and smiled at Eddie "Hey Eddie" Stanley said softly sitting at his desk. "Hi...um have you heard of anyone named...Charlie?" Eddie asked quietly. "You mean....that Charlie?" Stanley pointed at a short boy with freckles scattered around his cheeks and nose. Eddie looked at Stanley "I think so.....I don't know!" Eddie whined looking at the boy. Richie walked in and noticed Charlie before noticing Eddie or Stan "Hey Charlie..." Richie said softly sitting next to Charlie smiling. Eddie rolled his eyes and sighed. "Is it Richie?" Stanley watched as Richie flirted with Charlie. "Yes! Again!" Eddie groaned. Eddie sighed and looked down. Richie walked over to Eddie and smiled "Remember....at six" Richie winked and walked out of the class going to his correct one. "What the fuck was that about?" Stanley asked. "I don't fucking know! He just gave me this when he was in a pissy mood in Mrs.Kim's" Eddie gave Stanley the note and crossed his arms. Stanley read it and shrugged "are you gonna go!?" Stanley asked. "I don't know...I guess!" Eddie sighed.
Six came around and Eddie asked to go to the bathroom, he quickly left the classroom and walked to the bathroom, he walked in to see Richie on his phone sitting on the counter "What?" Eddie mumbled. Richie looked up his face all bruised and cut "Hey!" Richie said as if nothing was wrong. "Richie! What the fuck!!!" Eddie groaned and walked towards Richie pulling him down closer looking at all the bruises and cuts "Oh what happened now!" Eddie looked down and opened his Fanny pack grabbing an alcohol pad and a gauze. Richie sighed "When I walked out of the class Henry....." Richie sighed. Eddie groaned and started cleaning Richie's face. Richie hissed and pulled away. Eddie wrapped his hand around Richie's neck and pulled him close their faces an inch apart "Do you want me to leave and let your cuts get infected, or do you want me to clean up your fuking face and make sure your shit doesn't get infected!?" Eddie raised his eyebrows. Richie looked down and back up at Eddie, Richie leaned all the way in and kissed Eddie. Eddie pushed Richie off immediately "WHAT THE FUCK RICHIE!" Eddie yelled. Richie panicked and looked down a tear dropped from his eyes. "What the fuck Richie" Eddie pulled Richie off the sink and hugged him "It's okay...."Eddie whispered. Richie shook his head "it's not...Charlie set me up.....he told henry" Richie cried.
Eddie sighed and pulled away and finished cleaning Richie's cuts. "Im sorry Rich.....he seemed cool" Eddie took off Richie's glasses putting them in his fannypack "How are these not broken!?" Eddie chuckled softly cleaning the cut from Richie's nose, he put a band-aid on the cut and sighed. Richie buried his face in Eddie's neck. Eddie played with Richie's hair "It's gonna be okay" Eddie whispered. "C-Can I stay at y-y-your place for a while?" Richie asked. "Rich....my mom's coming home....you know she doesn't like you!" Eddie sighed. Richie pulled away and grabbed his glasses from Eddie's fanny pack putting his glasses back on "Your right! She doesn't like me.....She loves me" Richie winked chuckling a bit wiping his eyes.
Eddie rolled his eyes "I can stay at your place for a while if that's okay" Eddie shrugged and threw the alcohol pad away and the bandage wrapper as well. Richie smiled softly and nodded "Yeah, my parents don't mind." Eddie nodded and sighed washing his hands walking towards the exit of the bathroom. "Eddie..." Richie whispered. Eddie turned around and looked at Richie "Yeah?" Eddie smiled. Richie looked down "S-Sorry I kissed you I just..." he mumbled. "It's fine Richie....I understand okay" Eddie smiled softly and left the bathroom.
