Everyone loved you, but no one loved you. No one really knew you, popularity was a facade, a lie you were happy to keep because you knew you still had yourself in your pocket for in secret or at home. It was a mask of 'maturity' and 'perfection'. It really wasn't that hard feigning confidence. But down at the dam as you watched Ben, Eddie, Richie and Bill build it perfectly you wanted to join.

You wanted to join the four eyed flirt, Stuttering Bill, the boy in torn clothes carved with the letter H and mostly the asthmatic germaphobe.

Like some kind of cheesy chick-flick you'd taken genuine interest in Eddie, unwanted sheltering by his mother, almost daily bullying by the Bowers Gang,but unafraid to be himself even if that meant cowering in front of Henry Bowers himself.

Cheesy chick-flicks, what happens now?

From the tree you sat in you jumped down, branches crunching as you landed, Ben looking in genuine fear.

"It's (Y/N)"Richie muttered

They seemed to be intimidated and worried that you'd come to tease them, something you avoided, because you were just like them.

"What's up?"You questioned although you knew exactly what was up

"We-W-We're building a dam"Bill muttered

"Need any help?"

"Well Eddie needs help with those support logs- but it's dirty"Ben coughed

"It definitely is, if you know where this place goes"You stepped into the small stream in school shoes

"What's in it?!"Eddie yelped in disgust

"Nothing I was teasing you guys"You lied as you silently gagged, kind of laughing at the situation as you grabbed the log

How do you tell a labelled loser that you like them when your a popular?

"What are you kids doing?-"A police man said as he explained the situation completely, Eddie jumping out of the stream post-haste

"Okay thank you kids"He turned as Ben and Bill removed the dam

It can't be that hard. Just say it. 1, 2, 3-

"Eddie Kaspbrak do you mind if we hang out- alone because I like you, I like you please- uh-"You blushed awkwardly

"YES- I mean- S-sure"Eddie nodded
