" No way ! N-No fucking way !" Eddie crosses his arms and turned away from the others. " Oh, come on, Eds," Richie persisted.
" It's the rules. You have to kiss me !"

Eddie froze. His heart beat fast against his chest as he tried to conjure up an answer. His mind immediately went back to that night. That night with him. Eddie could feel his legs beginning to shake out of anxiousness, he really had no answer for Richie.
He knew that Richie would never force him into anything he wasn't comfortable with, but he also felt he would ultimately lose interest in Eddie if he chose to wait too long to do anything.
Brady hurt him. Richie didn't do that. Richie didn't pressure him into that, Brady did. But, it was all basically the same situation; they were laying in his bed. everything seemed okay at first, making out and feeling all over one another. then it got more and more serious.
Brady didn't do anything Eddie didn't technically oblige to, but after the fact, it still left him uneasy. As if, he wasn't sure it wasn't something he wanted to do until after it had happened.
"Eddie?" Richie muttered.
"Huh?" Eddie replied. He still wasn't all there. His mind was still in said place. A darker place.
"You...I'm sorry—I should not have asked you that." Richie almost let go of Eddie's hips, but Eddie quickly snapped out of it and held the boy's hands right.
"N-No! I...It just caught me off guard, that's all, Rich." He faked a small smile.
Richie knew Eddie better than that.
"You don't have to do anything you don't want to do, Eds." He assured, once again. "Like I said, I'd never force you into anything you aren't okay with, dude."
Eddie let out a soft sigh. "It's not that I'm opposed to doing stuff with you, Rich."
Richie's heartbeat sped up a bit. Just the thought of he and Eddie doing anything sexual made him absolutely ecstatic.
"It's just...you and I—we...we haven't really been...we just started-" Richie covered Eddie's mouth with his hand, gently placing it over his lips as Richie's lips slowly curved into a smile.
He understood. He really liked Eddie, and if Eddie felt that it was too soon for the two of them to do anything then he would wait for an eternity before Eddie felt ready.
"It's okay." He muttered. "I don't mind waiting, as long as we can keep making out."
Eddie scoffed and shoved his hand off, giggling playfully. He placed both of his hands on Richie's cheeks and pressed a soft peck on his lips.
"You're such a dork." He muttered.
