You can't tell anyone, I'm serious. Swear on something important.

[stantheman]

I'm not the one with the big mouth.

[wheezed]

Yeah but this is important.

[stantheman]

eddie, you either trust me or you don't.

[wheezed]

I don't want you to hate me too.

[stantheman]

If I don't already hate you for being obnoxious and annoying all the time nothing is going to make me hate you, Eddie.

[wheezed]

Mean. It's not ALL the time.

( it definitely is )

I kissed Richie.

[stantheman]

[ It definitely is all the time. ]

Okay. What's the problem...?

[wheezed]

( what's the problem?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?! )

Um. The part where I kissed him?
I didn't mean to, it just. Happened. And now everything is awful.

[stantheman]

How is kissing him a problem? Like... you guys like each other right?

[wheezed]

We're best friends of course he doesn't like me. I thought it'd just go away but instead I kissed him when he was injured and he couldn't even stop me.
Now he just looks at me like I really hurt him and I don't know how to fix it.

[stantheman]

[ Why are Eddie and Richie so stupid? Why did Stan have this burden of being the smart one? ]

Eddie, seriously... You two are like the dumbest idiots I have ever met.

Have you guys actually talked about it?

[wheezed]

He literally just started talking to me again Stan. I don't even know what to say yet. 'Sorry I ambushed you please don't hate me any more I promise I'll get over it soon'?

I just need to figure out how to explain in a way that makes things better but every time I try I think I'm going to barf. No, we haven't talked about it.

[stantheman]

Have you thought there might be other reasons he's not talking to you that aren't he's mad or hurt?

[wheezed]

I mean sure, but it's pretty obvious what the reason is.
You didn't see his face, he basically looked horrified. It was the worst.

[stantheman]

Eddie...

You know what you need to talk to him about it and why you did it.

[wheezed]

I'm going to, I promise. I just don't know what to say yet.

( and now he's just going to backtrack a bit, because Eddie's only really realised the entirety of what he's confessed here. it's a good thing richie's the nervous vomiter and not eddie, because that's...that a lot. )

Would it be okay though? If I liked him? Or just like.

Not girls at all?

[stantheman]

I already know you like guys. And if it wasn’t okay you know i would have already said something.

[wheezed]

Did someone tell you??

( considering there's a grand total of two people that know he thinks it's unlikely. however... )

[stantheman]

You're not subtle.

[ Pretty much verbatim his words to richie. ]

[wheezed]

Oh.

So...everyone knows?

[stantheman]

I can't speak for everyone, Eddie. But I've known for a long time.

[wheezed]

Well that's not fair. Why did you get to know for ages if I only just realized here?

( repression. )

[stantheman]

Because we're from the 80s where it's like the worst thing to be and there's an AIDs epidemic?

[wheezed]

Can we not.

People were nice about it here though. To Richie, I mean. That's kind of cool.
