Richie
I laid back on Eddies bed as I watched him comb his hair and get ready for the party. He was wearing his varsity jacket, which made him look adorable.
Eddie: don't you need to get ready too?
Richie: Nope, it's just a dumb party
Eddie: it's not "just a dumb party". everyone at school goes to these things.
Richie: I don't care. It's not like I'm trying to impress anyone
He turned to me from his vanity and glared
Eddie: I'm not trying to impress anyone
Richie: I never said you were??
He rolled his eyes and I smirked at my short best friend
Richie: can we go now? We're already 30 minutes late
He sighed and ran his fingers though his hair one last time.
Eddie: Okay, but don't let me drink. I want to stay clean tonight
Richie: I'll stay sober with you then. Too bad I don't get to see drunk Eddie though...
He giggled and we went out to my car. He directed me to Max's house that was in a suburban neighborhood. Teens were in the front yard with solo cups and trash littered the lawn. Neon lights burst through the windows and I could here the pop music ring throughout the house.
Eddie led me inside to the living room where everyone was dancing and having fun. I sat on the couch and he crossed his arms
Eddie: What do you think your doing?
Richie: sitting
Eddie: you have to dance! It's a party
I shook my head and he rolled his eyes. He walked off and began dancing in the crowd. I kept my eyes on him as he danced with random people and swung his hips in a way that I didn't think was possible. He looked incredibly cute
Bev: hey, didn't know you were coming
Bev sat next to me with a cup of punch in her hand.
Richie: I'm just here with Eddie
She nodded and squinted at me
Bev: are you really homophobic?
Richie: what? No!
She gestured towards Eddie, with her cup
Bev: he seems to think so
I looked at him and he was now dancing with a boy with bleach blonde hair
Bev: are you gay, Richie?
Richie: no. I'm not.
Bev: then you need to stop leading Eddie on. He's sensitive
