Summary
His phone vibrated, waking him up about two hours after he’d fallen asleep. Eddie pulled it out, expecting to see something from Stan—or maybe Richie saying something else.
It was Richie.
But it wasn’t the kind of message Eddie had been expecting.Richie – 3:44 AM: did you know?
Richie – 3:45 AM: did you know will was cheating on me with fucking mike wheeler and you didn't say anything?The world tilted.
Eddie stared at the words on his screen, his breath caught in his throat, all the warmth and hope from the night draining out of him like water from a leaking bucket. Will had finally told Richie — and he'd told him that Eddie knew too.Shit Shit Shit
There was no good answer. No way to fix this. His hands were shaking and the screen kept blurring and he had absolutely no idea what to type back.
Then another message came in.Richie – 3:48 AM: answer me eddie please fuck just answer
And Eddie — for the first time in his life — had nothing to say.
