A failed revenge (reddie)

"Oh wait what are we gonna do about Bowers Eds?"
"Oh, I forgot about him." Eddie shrugged. "At least he won't mess with you anymore am I right?" Eddie chuckles. "Not wrong." Richie laughs a little as well. Eddie looks around in the pitch dark. Still, the only thing lighting the sewer tunnel is Richie's red eyes.
"Well, can you help me out? The flashlights fell in the water and broke."
"Yeah, sure thing Eds."
Richie holds out his hand for Eddie to take. Eddie doesn't take it because he can't see it. "Oh right.." Richie says and grabs Eddie's hand. Eddie flushed a light bit at the sudden holding of his hand.
"Oh! You could have warned me jackass-"
"Sorry, Spaghetti. It is just that I kinda forgot you can't see right now."
"It's fine. Let's just get out of here. It reeks."
Richie begins to guide Eddie out of the tunnel. Eddie's heart beat faster with every step as he held Richie's hand.
(What the hell.. why am I feeling this way? Did I get sick or something?) Eddie thought and put his hand to his cheek. (Oh I'm burning up! Fuck I knew I'd get sick down here.) Eddie came up with this solution. "Wait a goddamn minute. We just left Bowers down there in the pitch black!" Richie burst out laughing. "Good, he's a jerk," Eddie says and squeezes Richie's hand. Richie blushes as well at this point. (I'm lucky he can't see right now. Ah my face is so red-) Richie thought to himself. "I see a little bit of light soon, so that's good," Eddie says. "Oh yeah, there is. I didn't notice it at all." Richie said a little embarrassed. There was no need for him to be though, It wasn't his fault.

They get out of the tunnel and the sun shines on their faces. "Ah, the sun too bright-" Richies eyes wince. "You'll be fine you just haven't adjusted to the light." He smiles.
"Um... Eds..."
"What's up?"
"How am I gonna get home?"
"Oh yeah. Uh, I don't know."
"Me neither... because I don't wanna get caught looking like this."
"Yeah, that would be bad."
"Do you think I could fly? I do have wings and all."
"You can try."
"Ok- here goes nothing," Richie said then flapped his wings once a large gust of wind blew Eddie to the ground and Richie shot into the air. "Asshole!" Eddie screamed at him. Richie went back down to the ground gently. "Whoops, sorry Eddie spaghetti." He chuckled. "Come here I wanna try something." As Richie says this Eddie walks over to him. "Ok now give me your hands. "OK?" Eddie extends his arms. Richie takes Eddie's hand and then flies into the air. "You fucking asshole let me down!" Eddie screamed then looked down. He gulps deeply as he sees how high he is.
"Still want me to let you go?"
"No..."
Richie smiles at Eddie's response. He began to try and fly his way home. A few mistakes here and there but he got them onto Richie's roof. "Home sweet home," Richie said with a goofy grin. Eddie pulled his hands away from his. "You're never doing that to me again." He said in an annoyed tone. "The fact that I would be way more scared of me turning into this if we didn't fight a monster clown thing last summer-" Richie says. "You're not wrong. Same here actually.. I've gotten less scared of stuff." Eddie shrugs.
"You were screaming the whole time I was flying."
"Shut up Richie."
Richie begins to open his bedroom window and tries to hop in but he gets caught on his wings. "Oh yeah-" he tucks them and gets in. Eddie shakes his head and smiles and he gets in only a few seconds after Richie. "Oh your rooms are a mess," Eddie said with a grossed-out tone. "Well, I wasn't expecting people to come over." He feels a little bad for the state of his room. Eddie sits on Richie's bed. "Are you gonna sit down or what?" Eddie said with a small smug smile. "Yeah, yeah." He sits down next to him. Eddie takes a better look at Richie in the light.
"So you got turned into a half-demon or something?"
"I think so? Not sure."
Eddie stares at Richie's wings for a while before holding them with as little pressure as he can. Richie's heart flutters. Eddie lightly strokes Richie's wing. The feathers were so soft like a silk bed sheet or a newborn puppy. "Wow..." Eddie mumbled. Richies face got very red. Eddie wasn't even looking at Richie's face so he had no clue how red he was. Richie's heart starts to pound faster and faster. Eddie takes a glance at Richie and sees how red his face is. Eddie quickly lets go. "Oh sorry!" Eddie says frantically. "It's not a problem Eds..." Richie gives him a large smile. Eddie takes a closer look at Richie's fangs. "Hmm." He said as he looked. "What if I?" Eddie touches it with his finger. It immediately starts to draw blood. "Oh my.." Eddie says. "Oh shoot are you ok?" Richie quickly asked as he saw a small bit of blood on Eddie's finger. "Yes, I'm fine Richie." He rolls his eyes in a light-hearted way. "If you say so..." Richie spoke in an unsure voice.
