15 - I brought bear spray

"What Richie? What the hell Bill of course not" he spits out blushing. Really? All that thinking about what to say, and he says that.

"Oh" Bill says with a worried/sad expression on his face. Did he want him too? Why does he care?

"Why?" Eddie asks

"Oh. Uhhh...w-well" he hesitates "He likes you!" He whisper shouts. Wow so now he knows not to tell bill anything. Before the van situation, he would have be surprised about this. Now Bill confirmed it, which gives him a wave of good energy rush through him. Please don't blush he tells himself.

"Aaaand what do you h-have to say about this?" Bill asks as if he's hoping for something to happen

"And I knew that. I like him too. And you don't need to do anything because something already happened and yeah"

Bills eyes widen "What happened?!"

"Well um" Eddie starts, blushing. Does he really have to explain this? Why can't bill just get it that something happened and leave it. "We-I guess we...oh I don't know just"

"Kissed?!" Bill blurts, just a bit too loud for Eddies liking.

"No. What, no! God damn it Bill" Eddie exclaims, his face tomato red

"Ok! Ok s-s-sorry!" Bill says laughing

"Yeah that's so funny wow hilarious"

"Sorry!" Bill apologizes "You don't need to tell me w-what happened, I'll stay out of it f-for now"

Eddie smiles "Thanks Bill

"Let's go back downstairs"

The two leave the loft and go to the living room to find the rest of the losers. Bev is sitting in a chair talking to the rest of them. Bill and Eddie find a seat on the carpet

"So what are we gonna do today" Bev asks with excitement "it's kind a cloudy and could rain"

"We could jump off that cliff and see what happens" Richie says and scoffs

Bev scowls at him "ok you do that then"

"We could go swimming" Ben suggests

"Or like a hike or something" Mike adds

"Or bird watching!" Stan exclaims almost jumping out of his seat

"Yyyeah I don't know about that bird watching" Bev says pursing her lips. Stan huffs and rolls his eyes. "But a hike could be fun!"

They all nod or shrug

"I know some good trails we could go on. Some down by the river, some up in the mountains, what ever you guys want!"

"Ooo the mountains sound fun!" Mike says happily

"Yeah lots of birds!" Says Stan

"Actually, if we go in the mountains we could go backpacking and camp for a couple days" Bev suggests to them. The group looks amused.

"Y-yeah that would be fun!" Bill says

"Ok perfect!" Bev says with a smile "Today's Saturday, so we could leave to go backpacking...Tuesday through Thursday?"

"Sure!" Ben says, the group nodding

"Yeah that would be cool" Eddie says
