Reddie // Careless

Summer 1986

Sorry, it has been a while but I needed to do a couple things. This story doesn't have anything to do with pennywise ar at least not right now If you want it to then comment. But I hope this chapter is alright.

Richie Pov

The quarry was quiet until we arrived. Our loud voices boomed, echoing off the water. I looked over at all my friends. We stood in our underwear and looked down at the blue calm water.

"Who wants to go first?" someone asked. Ben, Eddie, Bill, and Stan looked at the water. I looked for a good tree to take a wiz behind. Then we all heard someone behind us. It was Bev and before we knew it she was on her way down to the water. Followed by Bill, Ben, and Stan. Eddie stayed up there with me and looked nervous.

"You wanna go first Rich?" he asked in a small voice. Eddie was always with me. It was if he looked up to me. I didn't mind. He was my best friend out of all the others. He made me feel uneasy with butterflies for some reason and I almost pissed myself.

"I gotta take a leak," I say, spoken like a true redneck. A sudden light gust of wind let out between us. Eddie shivered. I pulled him close and wrapped my arms around him. One around his shoulders one around his waist. "Are you shivering from the cold or the anticipation jump?" I asked chucking.

"A little bit of both." He said shivering in my arms.

"Tell you what, I'll go piss and then we can jump together." I paused looking down at him. He looked up at me with his golden eyes. He nodded and I let go. He followed me for a small bit and about half way he stopped and waited.

(Skip him peeing cause why tf not?)

Eddie Pov

It warmth of the sun was always comforting. I shivered half from the jump and half from the fact that the love of my life was alone with me. I waited for him to finish peeing and he soon emerged from behind the tree. He made his way towards me almost tripping on a bush and grabbed my hand.

"Ew is that the hand you use to aim?!" I yelled with a look of disgust on my face. He didn't answer and instead let go of my hand and walked to the other side of me, switching hands. "Do you have any idea how gross that was?" I asked trying lower my voice, but it probably ended up coming out all squeaky.

"Oh Eds," he sighed. Then he smiled and I was about to tell him not to call me that when he placed a small kiss on my nose. I was astonished. Richie had never kissed me on my nose before. Normally we held hands or sat together. Maybe play with each others hair. But this was different. It was genuine. I think. I hope.

Soon we were running to the edge. I squeezed his hand and he squeezed mine back. Right before we jumped he looked over at me and smiled. It was a smile I'll never forget. His face filled with joy, terror, and a litte red from either me or the sun. God, I love him.

(This story is mainly about Richie, Eddie, Bill, and Bev so ill do their POVs)

Bev Pov

The jump wasn't that scary but the fact that I would be with Bill in my underwear and bra was terrifying. I like Bill, but I'm pretty sure he has heard the rumors. They aren't true. I don't sleep around. In fact, I find it disgusting when other people do. When I hit the water, I heard someone jump after me. I turned to see Bills head emerge from the surface of the water. I could feel the butterflies in my stomach already.

He looked up back to the top of the jump as Ben and Stan jumped down. When they all realized they were still alive they began to horse around. Bill asked if I wanted to get on his shoulders to fight Richie. I was hesitant for a second, and he looked like he regretted asking. I timidly said yes and his expression changed so quickly to a smile and then looked like he was playing it off cool like nothing had happened.

Bill quickly ducked under the water as I watched Richie and Eddie jump down hand in hand. Everyone knows they have huge crushes on each other it was a nice sight. I watched as their bodies were fully underwater seconds later.

I was brought back to reality when I felt Bill grab just above my ankle from behind me. He slowly moved his hand up letting go over and over to get a grip. He moved his palm to the front of my thigh and his other hand onto my other thigh. The warm sudden touch was new and it made me gasp. Before I could grasp what happened I was seated on Bills shoulders halfway in the water.

Richie was already over with us and on Bens shoulders, and Stan was pointing out the poison ivy around the shore of the water while Eddie watched him.

¨Thats poison ivy, and that's poison ivy. And THATS poison ivy!¨ Stan stated matter-of-factly pointing in every direction there was.

¨Not every plant is poison ivy, you do know that right?¨ Eddie asked in an almost laughing voice. He glanced over at Richie and seeing him on Bens shoulders made him lower his head and when he looked back up to stan he squinted like he was seeing the sun. But I know better, it was to keep him from yelling. He was insanly jealous.

With Bev on my shoulders I felt shorter in the water. Small waves lapped again and again against my collar bone. I had my right hand on her right thigh and my left hand in her left shin. I looked at my right hand and slightly gripped tighter to keep a good grip. She gasped and her thighs started to shake. At that moment Richie pushed Bev off of my shoulders.

I fell with her and when we were underneath the water I fell on top of her and she grabbed Otho for my hands and pulled me under the water. I was happy that I could hold my breath for a while. She pulled me close and our bodies were together and touching. She leaned in and I felt her lips on mine. I was breathless. Literally we were under water.

I pushed up and we emerged from the water still kissing. Her hands pressed against the small of my back and one on the back of my head, pulling me in. My hands rested on her waist. When we stopped kissing we looked at the other losers and they stared back at us with smirks sketched into their faces. They went back to playing and me and Bev walked to the shore holding hands.

What did u think guys?
