Are You Sure? ~Riddie~

Chapter Two

all of the losers were hanging out by the lake. it was a warm saturday, probably the last until spring time. they were just chilling and talking, eddie sitting on a rock with his feet in the water. "s-s-so do you g-g-guys wanna come ov-over for a sleepover?" bill asked. "sure! is your mom gonna be there? cause i can't wait to see her again!" richie gave a smirk to bill. bill scrunched up his nose, giving him a disgusted look. "n-n-no they're going t-to visit m-my a-aunt." eddie looked behind his shoulder to look at them. "yeah sure, just gotta ask my mom." he said turning back around.

richie got up and sat beside eddie. he's been acting weird lately. he hates going into the the sewers, or riding past the house on kneebolt street. "heyo eddie spaghetti, what's up?" richie asked, using that nickname eddie hates so much. eddie gave him a look, but he smiled a little. god that smile. richie looked at his lips for a few seconds, but quickly looked up at his face to see him blushing. "so uh, are you gonna come to the sleepover, o-or like..." richie scratch the back of his neck.

          "did you not hear me dip shit? i said i'll ask my mom." eddie replied, his face still red. he saw Richie look at his lips for a good six seconds. eddie looked at him and smiled. god he loved him. his messy black hair, his freckles, is beautiful brown eyes behind his thick lensed glasses. "what time is it?" stan asked bill. "it's uhh...f-f-five thirty t-two." bill said looking at eddie's watch. eddie took it off thinking that they were going swim, but they didn't.

          "ok, i guess we should go pack stuff and be at your house by six?" stan asked bill. bill nodded and we all got up. eddie pulled his feet up, as he turned to get up, a hand was in his face. he looked up to see richie holding his hand out for him to grab. eddie smiled at him and happily took his hand. Richie pulled him up, but their hands didn't unlock right away. sddie looked at richie, who was looking at their hands. eddie looked down too. their fingers connecting perfectly. "are you to coming or what?" mike asked. they quickly let go of each other's hand.

          "oh shut up! we're coming." richie say. eddie looked at him, his face completely red. richie quickly moved to get eddie's watch. "here y-you don't wanna f-forget this." richie stuttered. eddie could tell he was nervous. "o-oh, thanks rich." eddie replied, putting the watch on his arm. "i'll see you at bill's, ok? bye!" richie said getting on his bike and speeding off. "y-yeah." eddie said happily.

  ^time skip to bills^

          there was a knock on the door. eddie was the only one who wasn't there so it had to be him. "i'll get it!" richie shouted, jogging to the door. he opened it to see a smiling eddie. "heyo ed's! you made it." richie smiled at him. "yeah, and don't call me that." eddie said giving him a little look "come on in, bills making popcorn, and mikes getting som blankets," richie said moving so eddie could come in. "why? are we watching movies or something?" eddie asked looking up a little at him. "yep, but it's ok eddie, you can totally hold my hand if you get scared!" richie snorted and looked at eddie. his face looked annoyed but happy at the same time.

          "yeah yeah, how about you shut the fuck up," eddie said smiling a little. richie covered his heart, pretending to be hurt by his words. "ohhh!! eddie how could you!! ughhhh! bleeh!" he fell over on the couch pretending to be dead, his tongue sticking out. "oh no! my poor love has died! i'm now so sad and depressed, i can't live anymore!!" eddie smiled and dropped his bag of clothes, and fell beside richie. "bleeehh," he stuck his tongue out also. the two boys laughed and looked at each other. they were so close, eddie could feel richie's breathe on his face. both of their faces were red and richie got a little closer. eddie didn't move. was he dreaming? he pinched his arm, and he could feel it. nope, not a dream.

          "i-i have the popc-corn!" bill yelled from the kitchen, eddie heard his foot steps on the wooden floor. he quickly rolled back fell off of the couch. he landed with a loud bang on the floor. richie sat up and looked at him on the floor, eddies face a light red. richie could feel his face burning. "w-w-what just h-happened?" bill asked setting three bowls of popcorn down on the table. "i don't know, eddie spaghetti just fell over," richie said. he couldn't say they almost kissed. wow know that he thought about it, he almost kissed the love of his life.
