the dance

A RICHIE IMAGINE!

"school dances are so lame! why are we even here?" richie whined to his friends.

they all just entered the derry dance for their school.

all the losers were there, except y/n. she said she had club work to catch up on, so she ended up not going.

"cmon rich, live a little." beverly told the boy.

"what?" richie asked, adjusting his glasses.

"g-go find l-l-like a girl t-to dance with o-or s-something." bill stuttered to the boy.

richie just sighed.

he wore khaki long pants and a hawaiian shirt. it wasn't the perfect attire for a formal dance like this, but all his button ups couldn't fit him anymore.

"richie! come on saggy pants!" eddie called from the dance floor.

richie just stood there, scanning the crowd for anyone to dance with.

he sighed for the millionth time and was about to grab some punch. after grabbing the punch, he sat down at one of the tables.

he took one sip.

no y/n.

come on rich! she's not gonna appear out of nowhere! he told himself.

another sip.

no y/n.

third sip!

"richie?" he felt a tap on his shoulder, which made him jump and spill the punch on his shirt.

"the hell is wrong with-"

y/n.

"h-hey y/n. i-" richie began, but it was y/n who did the interrupting again.

"i'm so sorry! oh my goodness! i should probably, uh-" y/n couldn't really think of what to do. "richie i'm so sorry."

"it's fine babe." richie said, causing y/m to blush at the nickname. they weren't together, but they liked each other. a lot.

"d-do you wanna dance?" y/n asked the boy. he sat up and grabbed her hand.

"yes m'am." richie said. they walked to the dance floor. richie squeezed his arms around y/ns waist and y/n rested her arms on his shoulders.

"i thought you weren't coming." richie said.

"the committee handled it for me." y/n said with a smile.

the two danced for a while until richie spoke up.

"y/n i love you." richie said.

"w-what?" y/n asked.

"i love you. like i'm in love wit-" richie was interrupted with a kiss.

y/n pulled away and looked at the boy. he adjusted his glasses.

"i love you too rich. like i'm in love with you." y/n said, mocking richie.

"so uh, you wanna go to the arcade next weekend? then we can go to my house and kick it. if ya know what i mean." richie said winking.

"yes. but not to the second part." y/n said giggling.

"you know you love me." richie said, placing a kiss to her lips once again, this kiss was much longer.

"yeah yeah i love you richard tozier."
