Eddie
The next morning I woke up to the sound of my shower running. I rubbed the sleepy from my eyes and cuddled into the pillow next to me.
It smelt like cigarettes and reminded me of a certain raven haired boy. I heard a mumble from the bathroom and then a voice echo off the bathroom walls. I stood next to the door and leaned against it as hot air slipped from the door cracks.
Richie: "And to your favorite song we sang along to the start of forever—"
I smiled at the sound of his smooth voice. The shower turned off and I heard him step out.
Richie: "And after all this time, I'm still into you—"
I giggled and cut in
Eddie: "I should be over all the butterflies, but I'm into you"
(a/n the song their singing is "still into you" by paramore and I know this story is based in the 90s but idgaf)
He opened the door swiftly and I was face to face with his bare chest. My eyes wondered down to his towel wrapped waist, and then back up to meet his eyes
Eddie: g-good morning...
Richie: Don't ever tell anyone you heard me sing. Ever
Eddie: why? It was pretty
He cringed at the word pretty and I giggled
Richie: nothing about me is "pretty".
Eddie: Mhm... well I think so. I didn't know you liked Paramore
Richie: I don't
Eddie: then why were you singing one of their songs?
Richie: their shit is catchy
I giggled and he put a hand on my shoulder. I froze and realized how close we were standing, and how he was literally half naked.
Richie: besides the point— you sing nicely
I blushed and glanced at his hand
Eddie: thanks...
I stepped back and went in my closet. I got another pair of clothes for him to wear. This time, grey shorts and a black
T-shirtHe went back in the bathroom and changed. He shook out his wet hair and sat on my bed again
Eddie: do you want breakfast?
He nodded and I led him downstairs to the kitchen
Sonia: Eddie bear... who's this?
I froze and completely forgot that my mom was off work today. She was sipping coffee at the kitchen counter
Eddie: oh, this is the new neighbor boy, Richie.
