he should be used to this new world already. really, they’ve been here for a good week or so, eddie should be used to all the wacky new technology and how .. careless people were about G E R M S. his mom had warned him plenty about the city life and its people. the teen hadn’t believed it whatsoever, thinking that his manipulative mom wanted to use that against him as well. it wasn’t until he got here that he realized that she had been absolutely right -- a little too late. now all he could do was follow richie around as if he were a substitute for his mommy. a small lost puppy following around the most reckless person he ever met. he HATED how dependent he had grown. the other probably thought he was pathetic .. a deep frown settled tensely on his lips.
❝ rich, ❞ he released faintly. eddie had two options: run away from his inner thoughts, push them down for him to battle late at night or confess his worries to the loser in front of him. of course, richie wasn’t bill or stan, mike, ben or beverly. maybe the other would just make fun of him for worrying so much if he were to express the fact that his inhaler was running low .. it was that same realization that ultimately made his decision. breathing out deeply, the teen began playing with his hands and he turned to his friend with a nonchalant expression. ❝ let’s .. let’s go see if we can find something f u n to do around here, yeah ? maybe somebody left their bike just lying around .. who knows. ❞
