"Richie came boping to the stream, glanced at Ben with some interest, and then pinched Eddie's cheek. "Don't do that! I hate it when you do that, Richie." "Ah, you love it Eds," Richie said and beamed at him."

"I hate it when you call me Eds." "I know," Richie said, hugging him tightly, "but somebody has to toughen you up, Eds. When you stop leading the sheltered igs-zis-tence of a child and grow up, you gonna, Ah, say, Ah say you gonna find out life ain't always this easy, boy!" Eddie began to shriek with laughter. "That's the shittiest Voice I ever heard, Richie.""

""Had any good chucks lately, Eds?" he says outloud, and laughs again. Man, he had hated it when Richie called him Eds...but he had sort of liked it, too. It was something... like a secret name."

""It ate your shoe," Beverly said and uttered a wild laugh. "Isn't that too bad." "I'll buy you a new pair of Keds when we get out of here," Richie said. He clapped Eddie on the back in the dark."

"Richie,” he whispered. “What?” Richie was down on his hands and knees, staring at him desperately. “Don’t call me Eds,” he said, and smiled. He raised his left hand slowly and touched Richie’s cheek. Richie was crying. “You know I...I...” Eddie closed his eyes, thinking how to finish, and while he was still thinking it over he died."
