[It's not something Beverly expected to hear from Eddie. Hell, it's not something she ever expected to hear from anyone else, ever. It's the type of thing that has always made her feel set apart from everyone at school or anywhere. It's the type of thing people don't talk about, normalized like the bruises she wears every day.
But he says it, Eddie says it and it feels like someone's finally explaining something she's thought only she understood her whole life. She doesn't realize how hard she's gritting her teeth as she types back, not until her jaw starts to hurt.]
You're right. That's exactly right it's like you can't split it apart from that and Because you say it's okay from one person then what stops people from thinking it's okay from them too??? It's different when it's just rumors and bullshit It's different when someone has "proof" even if you would wanna punch anyone who said that was proof you wanted everything else
I feel the same way Eddie that's it exactly. It's that and I tihink. I think there's a part of me thatsometimes forgets how love can be anything other than something that hurts you. Even if I don't know if I'm "in love" with anyone like that but
I think maybe I say I love you guys so much cause I'm trying to remind myself that it can be okay to feel like that and it doesn't mean we have to hurt each other
