It was Halloween 1992 and the losers were ready to have their best Halloween yet.
They had all been surprisingly invited to Gretas Halloween party. Though, they all have Stephanie to thank for the fact they are going.
Eddie was red riding hood and Richie was the wolf. Bill was a vampire, Mike was a skeleton, Ben was a mummy, Bev was bloody carrie, Stan was an angel, Victor was the joker, and Ash and Stephanie were m and ms.
Eddie was supposed to wear a dress, but he decided to just wear a red hoodie. He would gladly skip the embarrassment his friends wanted him to experience.
Richie was going to be at his house to pick Eddie up any minute now, but Eddie had forgotten to mention to his mom how he was friends with Richie again...

Richie had just arrived at the Kaspbrak house. He knocked on the door and was immediately faced by Eddie's mother. "Hey Mrs. K." He smiled, taking a step inside once she moved away slightly. "I just came by to pick up Ed-."
"Tozier." She spat. "You are not picking up my son. He might not know your dirty little tricks, but I do. Stay away from my son faggot."
Eddie suddenly appeared looking disgusting. "Mommy?" He stated. "What's going on."
Sonia snapped her head towards her son who was walking down the steps slowly. Richie looked at him and they made eye contact, fear in both of their eyes. "I'm just making things clear with this disgusting boy. I don't want him harming you and messing with your brain, making you think.... disgusting things." She answered. Eddie walked over to Richie and stood so close to him that their shoulders were touching. "Don't stand that close to him Eddie Bear."
Eddie put his arm around Richie and Richie's mouth fell open with shock. "How about this ma."
Sonia looked disgusted. "Don't you see what this boy has done to you?"
Eddie rolled his eyes. "What this boy has done has been being there for me even if I fucked up bad. I'm sorry I'm not a homophobic bitch like you are."
Eddie could see the anger growing in his mother's eyes. "He's done nothing, but turned you into a faggot!"
Eddie scoffed. "Yeah maybe he has, but I love him!" Sonia gasped and Richie's mouth fell open in shock as he let out a smile, feeling the flutter in his stomach and how his face got hot.
Eddie stood on his tiptoes and gave Richie a big kiss on his lips before walking out the door, his hand in Richies as he flipped his mom off.
Richie's mouth was still hanging open. When they got in Richie's new car, the taller one stifled a small laugh. "What?" Eddie asked, smiling.
"You love me?" Richie asked, a big smile still planted on his face.
Eddie hadn't realized what he said until now. His eyes went wide. "I- I- um-."
"It's fine Eds," Richie reassured, inching closer so that their foreheads were touching. "I love you to dork." He leaned forward and connected their lips into a slow, but passionate kiss.
***
Greta's house was huge. When Eddie and Richie walked inside the losers were waiting for them. "There you guys are," Beverly exclaimed walking towards them. "I've been here for 5 minutes and I'm already uncomfortable. Greta's dad won't stop staring at me."
Richie frowned and pulled out a pack of cigarettes and held them in the air. "Wanna step outside a minute."
She sighed and hugged him. "God, you are a lifesaver. Ben hid mine because he claimed I was "smoking too much."
