"Looks like you're in my math and English class Rich."
"Ooh nice."
"Bev you're in my geography class, and Ben you're in my gym class."
"Aw sucks I'm not in your classes." Stan said.
"God I hate gym."
"Why Ben? You're really good at basketball, I'm jealous."
"Jealous you can't reach the hoop." Richie laughed.
Stan laughed at one of his jokes for once.
"Maybe next semester Stan. Can't believe we're going to grade 9."
"Can we talk about something else I hate school." Bev rolled her eyes.
"It ain't that bad." Eddie said
"Yeah because you're smart, unlike mr Tozier over here."
"Woah woah woah, I'm smart!! I may not look like it but I get straight A's."
"Yeah but not the straight part." Bev giggled to herself.
"Question Richie, why are you wearing a hoodie during summer time?" Ben asked.
"Because I feel like it."
"Yeah but I could see you drowning in sweat at the school." Mike laughed.
"Guys just let him wear what he wants." Eddie said.
"Well g-guys I should get g-going, my moms gonna k-kill me."
"Me too." Stan said.
Eventually everyone left, Bev went out for dinner with Bill.
"Guess it's just us Ed's. When's your dad coming back? Where is he anyways?"
"Oh he went to buy you a couple shirts."
"Why?"
"Just some for when you stay here, I mean you said you don't like spending much time at home so.."
"Oh, thanks. I'll give you money."
"No Rich, I don't need it. It's okay." He laughed. "Plus do you even have money?"
"Shut up." He laughed.
"Hey about earlier, I'm still glad you told me. I bet it took a lot of courage to do that, and I'm sorry I pushed you."
"No you don't have to be sorry. And yeah, it was hard to get out but I feel relieved you know."
"Wait the others don't know?"
"Nope, just you and Bev."
"Oh, how long as she known..?"
"Awhile."
"Well thanks for telling me, it makes me feel..
"Special?" He laughed.
He smiled, "Yeah.." he mumbled.

A couple hours later.
"What's for dinner Ed's?"
"Hmm I'm not sure what do you want?"
"Spaghetti!!!"
Eddie sighed and tightly pinched his lips together. Making a funny, but mad face.
"I don't know if you wanna eat it though that's cannibalism."
