Eddie: well I'm eventually gonna get it out of you someway or another.

Richie: (sarcastically) oh Eddie sweety I don't think so.

I get situated in a comfortable position. I want Richie to sing.

Eddie: song for me?

Richie: what song?

Eddie: um I don't know. Do you know any songs on your ukulele.

Richie: I wrote a few songs but there shit.

Eddie: well play them.

Richie: no.

Eddie: come on please.

Richie: I'll play a song but not one I wrote.

He stands up and walks over to his little chair in the corner. He grabs the uke and sits back on the bed. He starts strumming. I didn't recognize the song at first but when he started singing I figured it out.

(Please listen to it, It's really cute also the reason I make him sing twenty one pilots songs is because in the story his voice sounds exactly like Tyler Joseph)

Richie: wise men say *laughs* only fools rush in oh but I can't help falling in love.

He sounds so beautiful. It's so sweet. He's so sweet. I love him more than anything in the entire planet right now. Sometimes I wish we could just run away together, leave Derry, leave our houses and our family's, leave every one of our problems, leave everything behind us and just start over and build a better life. Forget school and drama and any conflicts we have, I know it sounds terrible but I just wish we could go away to New York, I know Richie could become a singer and I could become an actor, I know we could do it. But we can't, at least not right now maybe when we graduate. Which I can not believe this is our junior year at school, soon we will have to get a job and get a house. Richie has a little job, he doesn't get paid much because he works part time in the on Thursday, Friday, saturday and Sunday. Which he hates. He says those are his party nights. Plus he's always running on caffeine because he usually stays up all night but then goes to work at 5 am to 11 am besides on Thursdays and Fridays because of school, he works from 5 pm to 10 pm. I just want to move away with all my friends and Richie. I kinda dont want it to be over but maybe in the end we will all end up happy.

Richie: cause I can't help falling in love with you *strum*

Eddie: that was beautiful Richie.

Richie: shut up, I was hoping you would fall asleep.

Eddie: I'm just thinking.

Richie: about what?

Eddie: how in about 2 months it's gonna be summer and then we are going to be seniors and then, like we are gonna graduate and move out.

Richie: yeah it's crazy.

He gets up off the bed slowly and walks over to his chair, grabs his ukulele case and slips it in and zips it up. He walks back to the bed and lays down staring at the ceiling while I stare at his pretty face. He is so beautiful you know?
