The Losers arrived and started playing monopoly, which ended 20 minutes later by Richie throwing houses at Stan because he lierally made his finantial situation be at -2741€, somehow (Stan is unstopable at monopoly). After a few more board games and fights, they decided to watch a movie together.
"Richie go make popcorn. Eddie go supervise Richie" Stan ordered not bothering to look up going throw Beberly's films, Bill by his side playing with Stan's shirt.
"Dude I'm not 5, I don't need supervision" Richie defended himself and at the same time grabbing Eddie's hand dragging him to the kitchen, contradicting himself in every posibble way.
They hurried to the kitchen still holding hands, none of them realizing that until Eddie had to let go to open the microwave, leaving an awkward silence and a slight blush in their cheeks. As they waited Richie rapped his arms around Eddie's waist resting his head in the other boy's shoulder missing the contact they had.
Eddie stroked Richie's hair still taken by surprise, he then chuckled pressing himself closer.
"I forgot to tell you, Abbie Grahams asked me to the dance" Eddie sofly told Richie, who flinched for a second afraid if he might have lost his chance.
"That girl from lab?" Eddie nodded "Did you say yes?" he tried to sound unconcerned, but didn't.
"No, I mean she's nice and all but I hardly know her, She honestly took it pretty well. Why do you ask, wanted to make a move on her?" Eddie teased 'this is the moment' Richie thought 'you're gonna go right up to him and say that you lov- LIKE that you like him and you want to go to the dance with him'
Richie had build up a confidence wall, the one was immediately destroyed by the loosing frienship bullshit "See the thing is that her mom is just so-" "Beep beep trashmouth" Eddie quickly shutted him.
Both of them sat in the sofa after handing everyone a bowl of popcorn, as the movie started.
While the group watched Mamma Mia for the 17th time ( a classic that never dissapoints) and Mike, Beb and Ben sang to the top of his lungs Money, Money, Money the rest of the group cheered, Richie glancing at Eddie from time to time, who always caught him turning bright red.
Through half movie, Eddie rested his head on the others boy's shoulder about to fall asleep, and Richie, taking advantage of the oportunity, intertwined his hand with the other rubbing his thumb against Eddie's soft skin. After a few moments Bev noticed this, instantly pointing and whispering to everyone, giving Richie a thumbs up with the widest grin on her face, and Richie in response flipped her off.
By the time the movie finished, everyone was already sleeping, except for Richie who was zapping through channels, he had lately been having a lot of trouble sleeping. He often woke up with the biggest eyebags, then went to Beverly's and she covered them with some fondation.
"Go to sleep man" Eddie whispered half asleep cuddling closer getting cold, Richie chuckled turning off the tv.
Eddie used Richie's chest as a pillow, who carelessly threw his glasses to the floor wrapping his arms around the smaller boy's face.
In a normal circumstance, Richie would have made one of his iconic horrible jokes and ruin the moment, but he decided that wasn't going to happen, atleast today.
