Eddie

I got onto the treadmill and peddled slowly. The gym was empty besides me and my trainer

John: good job Eddie, your doing fine

I nodded and leaned on the handle bars. I got off my crutches a week ago and have been doing physical therapy. I still have my heavy cast but I'm
use to it now.My leg still has bruises so it hurts to walk or flex.

The gym door swung open and Richie stepped in with a juice box

Richie: hey baby!

He handed my the juice and kissed my cheek. John walked farther away, I think he secretly hates Richie.

Richie: do you feel okay?

Eddie: yeah, it just stings a bit

He leaned on the handle bars and made a kissy face. I giggled and leaned forward to peck his lips.

John: no p.d.a please....

Eddie: sorry John...

Richie chuckled and my cheeks turned pink

Richie: so... can i stay over tonight?

Eddie: sure, but we have to stop by the pharmacy to get snacks.

He nodded and the timer went off. I stepped off the treadmill and John scribbled some notes down

John: your good to go, see you next week

I waved bye and Richie held my hand as we walked out. He had "borrowed" his moms car today so we didn't have to walk anywhere. We made our quick run to the pharmacy where Richie pointed out boner pills and condoms (I smacked him)

Then we went to my house. He pulled a big duffel bag out of his trunk and I raised an eyebrow at him. He just shrugged and walked me up to my room.

Eddie: not that I don't love your presence, but how long did you plan on staying?

Richie: ummm....until May 28

That was only two weeks away. But why that specific date?

Eddie: why the 28th?

Richie: I don't know, just cus

He set his bag down and laid on my bed. He held his arms out to me and I snuggled between them. I leaned my head against his chest and he held me tightly... too tightly...

Eddie: uh, Rich? Your cutting off my blood circulation, why are you hugging me so tight?

Richie: hehe...sorry...

He let me loose and I looked up at him. He gave me a weak smile

Eddie: what's wrong?

Richie: nothings wrong sweetheart

Eddie: Yes, somethings wrong. Tell me

Richie: I'm fine! I just want to cuddle right now okay?

I searched his face for evidence but ended up giving up with a sigh. He smiled down at me and kissed my forehead

Richie: how come your always the little spoon?

Eddie: I don't know, because I'm smaller? Do you want to be the little spoon?

I giggled as his cheeks went red. He nodded and flipped around. I scooted up and wrapped my arms around his chest and rested my chin on the back of his head. He found my hands and laced our fingers together

Richie: this is better than being a big spoon

Eddie: You think so? I like being the big spoon

Richie: yeah but if your the small spoon you feel all warm and cozy

Eddie: but if your the big spoon you feel like your holding something so precious that you need to hold onto them

We both laughed and someone knocked on the door.

Stan: why the fuck are you guys talking about spoons?

I huffed and got up to unlock my bedroom door. Stan and Bill walked in and sat on the bed next to Richie

Bill: what a-are you two up to?

Richie: just hanging out

Stan: we have 2 weeks of school left and you didn't invite us to your sleepover?! Offended...

Eddie: well Chee is staying for two weeks. You guy can stay tonight if you want

They both nodded happily and Richie rubbed the back of his neck

Richie: I gotta take a piss. I'll be back

He walked out rather fast and I turned to Stan and Bill.

Eddie: Bill, is there a special thing going on, on the 28th?

Stan: That's the day school ends

Eddie: like we don't have school anymore?

Bill: well, we have another
y-year. But Richie graduates th-this year

Eddie: what?! Why is he graduating early?!

Stan: didn't he tell you? He's in all honors classes and got all his credits finished this year. He's done with high school

My heart sank and I felt the tears start to form. I started hyperventilating and Bill found my inhaler for me

Eddie: why didn't he tell me?! Is that why he's staying for two weeks? Because after this I'll never see him again?!

Bill: I d-don't know... we thought he w-would of t-told you by n-now. We've been expecting it s-since freshmen
y-year

The door creaked open and I quickly wiped my tears away

Richie: whoa what's wrong? Are you crying?
