RICHIE'S POV

I held onto Eddie's hand as we drove off to Derry together. One hand gripping the steering wheel, the other clutching Eddie closely. He looked troubled by something as he gazed out the window, lost in thought. I squeezed his hand and turned to look at him. He gave me a slight smile.

"Everything okay, Eds?" I asked with a warm smile.

"Yeah" he sighed. "I just...I'm eager to see everyone again, I just would like to have a reunion without a...monster...looming over us"

"Yeah...I understand. It would be better if we had a reunion to catch up, not to fight"

Eddie nodded slowly.

"Aww, cheer up, Eddie Spaghetti!"

I got him to laugh and smile, making me grin and laugh along with him. I loved seeing my Eds smile.

"Don't worry, Eds. We'll be there soon and see our best friends again. Everything will be okay" I assured him.

I gave him a warm smile and he smiled wide in return, resting his head on my shoulder. He fell asleep soon after.

*4 hours later, in Derry. Eddie and Richie have arrived, and the Losers are celebrating at a restaurant*

RICHIE'S POV

It had been 27 years since I heard the laughter of everyone in the Losers' club, and I missed it more than anything.

"Look at you, Haystack!" I said jokingly, pointing to Ben. "Ya lost the weight, buddy!"

Ben told the story of how he joined track, losing all the weight and the insults along with it and how he gained a great amount of wealth. We swapped stories of our triumphs over the years, laughing yet feeling great sorrow for missing it all, regretting going our separate paths.

"I can't believe you finally got the guts to go after Bevvie, Ben. And look at you two! When did that happen!?" I teased, motioning to Bill and Stan who were laughing like little kids, lost in each other's eyes as they sat close together.

"We could ask you the same question, Trashmouth!" Bill shot back, referring to me and Eddie.

The table erupted in laughter.

I turned to look at Eddie and his beautiful eyes were already gazing into mine, his eyes sparkling. I leaned forward and grabbed his cheeks.

"Aww, my Eds is so cute! Cute cute cute!" I exclaimed, pinching his cheeks.

"Cut it out, Richie!" Eddie giggled.

"Aww, I wanna know the story!" Beverly interjected.

All the Losers turned to Eddie and I. We gave each other a look, the two of us thinking the same thing as we gave each other the same loving yet sly smile.
