Unknown Number : Hey Eds!👏🏻😊
Unknown Number : Eds! You should know who i am.😉

Oh brother...

Eddie🍝: Richie?

Richie💘: Eddie! You guessed it, Eddie Spaghetti!

Eddie🍝: Spaghetti is my favourite food. Don't judge me, Tozier. 😒

Richie💘: Just messing with you❤️😊

Eddie blushed again for the hundredth time that day. Then he realised that he didn't give Richie his number. So how did the bespectacled boy get his number? Eddie suspected Beverly, but he would just ask Richie anyways.

Eddie🍝: Wait, how did you even get my number?
Eddie🍝: Is this even Richie?

The brunette tapped his fingers on the surface of his study table, the shiny wood surface. The clicking sound loud in his tiny quiet room. His safe haven.

Richie left him on Seen. Eddie was going to murder him the next time he saw him.

Richie💘: Meet me at the quarry in ten.❤️

Eddies brown eyes widened. The quarry? Shouldn't Richie be in school now? It was lunch and students were only permitted to go out of bounds when they were buying breakfast. But now that he had thought about it, Richie was probably just pranking him. Even if the raven haired boy hadn't pranked him. Yet.

Eddie🍝: No! What are you even doing at the quarry?! 🙄😠

Richie💘: Come on! Live a little!

Eddie bit his lip. Should he? "Hey Eddie! You okay there?" Stanley Uris asked, his noodle curls in his eyes and his smart button down shirts and khakis shorts neatly ironed and clean. Eddie smiled at Stanley kindly, "I'm fine. Richie just asked me to meet him at the quarry." Stanley's eyes widened in delight, "Same here!" he whispered.

"E-Eddie! H-h-Hey t-there! S-stanley!" Bill leaned down to kiss Stanley on the cheek and waved to Eddie. Bill was also another recent friend Eddie has made in class, his brown hair and hazel eyes giving him a trusting demure. Besides, Everyone likes Bill Denbrough.

"Eddie got a text from trashmouth about meeting him at the quarry." Stanley explained to Bill as said boy munched on his carrots. "S-same here! R-richie just sent i-it to m-me five m-m-minutes ago-o."

"So do we go to the quarry or not?" A deep voice said from behind Eddie. "Hi Ben!" Eddie greeted. Ben smiled down at Eddie, his brown-blueish eyes smiling down at the brunette. "Hey Ed."

"Maybe we're going. Maybe we're not. I mean, we can't skip school right? How can we escape undetected?" Beverly chimed in, her denim overalls slightly dirty from sitting on the stone wall and smoking. "We leave right now?" Stanley added and Bill shook his head. "N-no. W-we'll get c-caught."

"Well, better we leave now then later. We have...", Beverly looked at the clock, "Five more minutes of lunch. We can leave now one by one and no one will suspect. They'll think we just have to go pee or something." The redhead suggested. The group nodded at her plan.

"Hey Bill! Why are you hanging with a loser?"

Daniel Jacobs sneered at Bill, the boy was tall but was still a foot shorter than Bill. "W-what loser?" Bill narrowed his eyes and crossed his arms. Daniel inclined his head towards Eddie, "The germaphobe. Duh. He's a real lame shit." Everyone now was angry. Really angry. The group had grown to love and accept Eddie as one of them in the short time they had known the Kaspbrak boy and they did not take kindly to hearing someone badmouth Eddie.

"Take that back, Jacobs." Beverly said lowly, her voice threatening and her hands tightened into fists. "Or what, bitch?" Daniel said and made to move closer to Beverly before Ben stepped in between the two. "Hey now. No one needs to get hurt. Just leave Bev alone and apologise to our friend, Eddie."

Daniel gulped. It was obvious he was afraid of Ben. "Sorry Germy." Daniel rolled his eyes and pushed past Ben and Bev to go back to his table.

The group was quiet before Stanley sighed.

"Okay, we are definitely not gonna make it."
