🌻a kiss without meaning🌻

• • •

—Eddie—

I went into the kitchen and saw Richie stirring a pot of chicken soup. He looked up at me and smiled.

Richie: want some?

Eddie: no thanks

I walked over to him and hugged him from behind, locking my fingers together. I nuzzled my face into the back of his shirt and took in his scent.

Eddie: you really should be getting some rest... I don't want you to get hurt

Richie: I know sweet tea, but I got hungry

Eddie: go lay down, I'll finish this and bring it to you

He turned around and pressed a kiss on my forehead that I savored.

Richie: your the best babe

He walked off and guilt slashed through me. I'm not the best...

I finished the soup and brought it to him in a bowl. I sat at the edge of the couch with him as he ate it.

He soon finished and laid back down. Mike walked in at that moment

Mike: I'm heading home now... night

We nodded goodbye and waited for the sound of the front door closing.

Richie: cuddle?

Eddie: of course love,

He flipped to his side so that I could lay under his arm. I felt him press soft kisses in my hair and rub circles on my back

Richie: I love you

Eddie: Love you too

My eyes stayed open as he drifted to sleep. Once I heard his soft snores I carefully sat up and looked down at him.

His lips were slightly parted and his chest rised and fell slowly. I held his hand and rubbed my thumb over his knuckles. I bit my lip as tears slipped from my eyes. I squeezed them shut but tears still managed to escape

I walked up stairs towards Stans room. The door was open and the light was on so I slipped in. Bill and Stan were playing a video game but once they heard me their eyes turned to me

Eddie: stanny....

He got up instantly and wrapped me in a hug, bill followed behind. I cried into Stans lettermen jacket and clutched onto his clothed back.

Stan: what's wrong?

My voice was a low whisper and the tears choked me up

Eddie: We kissed— mike kissed me—

I fell into a fit of sobs and Stan rubbed my back as Bill held my shaking hand

Bill: w-what?! Tell us wh-what happened!

We sat down on Stans bed and I told them exactly what happened.
