3 weeks later:
(y/n)'s pov:
"guys, i'm bored!" i say while crossing my arms.
"let's play a game." mike says.
"okay, how about a question game?" richie winks.
"oh shut up tozier!" i punch him playfully and smile.
"can we just play the game now!" mike says in an angry tone.
"fine!" richie and i say in sync.
"okay i'll start."
"(y/n), how did you and richie meet?"
"our parents have been friends for a long time." i say as i scoot closer to richie.
"okay mike, do you have any siblings?"
"yes, a younger sister and older sister. but, since i was adopted, they're not my biological siblings."
"oh, cool!" i say, smiling.
"richie, what is the most embarrassing memory you remember of us?"
"that one time we were playing house and we kissed." richie winks again.
mike spits out his juice.
"you remember that!?" i gasp.
"you guys kissed...?" mike asks with a blank face.
"yeah, it was both our first kiss. isn't that right, (y/n/n)?"
"y-yeah.." i blush.
mikes pov:
i really don't have a chance with (y/n).
just look at her! you can tell she's in love with richie.
richie is probably in love with her too!
(y/n)'s pov:
"can we just play another game now!?" mike shouts.
"mike, what's wrong?" i say with a concerned look.
"mike, can we talk?" richie points to the bathroom.
"okay?"
what's going on?
richie's pov:
"mike, why are you acting like this?"
"acting like what?"
"mike, don't act dumb."
"i'm not acting dumb! just tell me."
"do you... like (y/n)?"
"ew... no!" he says with a disgusted face.
i can tell he's lying.
"you're lying, aren't you?"
"no! (y/n) is yours! i know you like her!"
"what?"
"aren't you guys dating?"
"no?"
"you sure act like it."
mike bursts out the door and goes outside.
(y/n)'s pov:
"you sure act like it"
i overhear mike yell from the bathroom.
"mike?"
i follow him.
"mike are you oka-"
he turns around.
tears streaming down his face.
"go talk to richie since you like him so much."
i grab his wrist.
"mike, come here."
"no!"
"then let's talk outside!"
"f-fine!"
we then walk behind the house.
"mike, what's wrong?"
"it's nothing!"
we sit down and i grab his hand.
"you can tell me anything. i know we've just met but.."
"i can't tell you. you won't look at me the same way anymore."
"mike, you can tell me anything."
"fine! i like you! a lot!" more tears stream down his face.
"what?" i ask in complete shock.
i only see mike as a friend.
oh no...
"see! i told you!"
he almost gets up to walk away from
me.
"no!"
i grab his hand and push him against the wall.
"mike..."
i rub my thumb over his cheek.
i pull him into a hug.
"i don't see you differently."
he leans in to kiss me.
"mike! i still only see you as a friend. i'm sorry."
i say,
still hugging him.
he bursts into tears.
"i-i'm such an embarrassment!" mike says, running away.
richie then comes outside.
"(y/n)?! is mike okay?!" richie says, concerned.
"he told me he likes me and i told him i only see him as a friend. i feel so bad."
i burst into tears.
"at least you told him the truth." richie pulls
me into a hug.
"i'm such a terrible friend!"
i sob into his shoulder.
"(y/n/n), no you're not. you did the right thing. telling him the truth is better than pretending to like him."
"plus he has that el girl. she'll come back some day for him."
he rubs my back.
"come on, let's go into the bathroom."
we go into the bathroom closest to his room.
"here, sit on the counter."
"o-okay richie..."
he grabs a wet towel and wipes my cheek.
"do you wanna go to the diner? you haven't really ate anything."
"yeah."
"okay, let's go."
*at the diner*
our waitress comes to our table.
"what can i get you two?"
"one (f/f) (favorite flavor) milkshake for me please!" i smile.
"i'll take a vanilla milkshake."
"okay! i'll be back with those milkshakes!"
the waitress walks away.
richie puts his arm around me.
"so, hot cakes?"
"what did you just call me?"
"hot cakes"
"why?"
"because you're hot." richie winks.
i blush.
"ohhhh you're blushing!" richie smirks.
"n-no i'm not!"
i blush even more.
"hot cakes hot cakes hot cakes hot cakes"
"stop!"
"fine!"
"(y/n/n)?"
"yeah?"
"do you wanna go to the quarry tomorrow?" he winks.
"are you only asking me because you wanna see me half naked?"
"of course i am, hot cakes!" he smirks.
"really?!"
"i'm only joking!"
"fine, i'll go."
mikes pov:
"i'm such an embarrassment!" i yell at (y/n).
i run to the park and find the losers there.
"m-mike?!" bill says, standing up.
"yeah?"
"did you cry? your eyes are so puffy!" eddie asks.
"n-no!" i lie.
"you're lying! when people cry, their eyes become p-"
"okay fine! i did." i cut him off.
"mike, what's wrong?" beverly asks.
"i told (y/n) i love her and she told me she only sees me as a friend!"
i burst into tears again.
"oh my god.. i'm so sorry mike." eddie says in a sad tone.
"well, we're here for you mike." beverly says.
"h-how about t-the q-q-quarry tomorrow?" bill asks.
"sure..." i say with a blank face.
*timeskip to the next day*
(y/n)'s pov:
i get out of my bed and brush my teeth and hear a tap on my window.
i immediately go to the window and find richie.
what does he want?
i go to the front door and open it.
"what do you want this early?"
"do you not remember?"
"remember wha-"
"THE QUARRY!" i shout
"you forgot?"
"yeah! i'll go get ready."
"okay." he winks.
"no, you can't come in and watch me."
"i know that!"
*timeskip to the quarry*
"hey, hot cakes, you can't swim in a dress. you know that, right?" he smirks
"of course richie! i'm not an idiot."
i take off my dress to reveal my (f/c) bikini.
richie stares the whole time.
"richie! can you like... not stare at me!"
"i wasn't staring at you!"
"oh shut up."
"come on hot cakes, let's jump off." he grabs my hand and winks.
"okay."
i blush.
"there's already people here!" i hear a familiar voice.
"stanley?" i turn around.
"why are you guys are here?!" stanley asks.
"because it's a warm day and we wanted to swim. isn't that just common sense?" richie shouts.
"wow! okay richie!" stanley rolls his eyes.
mike walks up.
we both stare at each other in shock.
"mike?"
"(y/n)?"
i grab richie's hand and jump off with him.
"(y/N) WHAT ARE YOU DOIN-"
we hit the water.
we both float back up and gasp for air.
"i'm sorry, i saw mike."
"why is he here?!"
"i have no idea"
we hear the losers jumping off and screaming.
richie wraps his arms around my waist and swims away from the edge.
"so, hot cakes..."
"yeah richie?"
"what do you wanna do?"
"let's look fo-"
"hey guys!" beverly says
"hey beverly!"
beverly is my best friend.
richie grabs me and pushes me underwater.
"aHHHH!" i yell underwater.
he stares at me for a little bit but then he kisses me.
we quickly float back up and i gasp for air.
"what did you just do?!"
"i did this."
he wraps his arms around me tighter and kisses me roughly.
we both pull away.
"(y/n) i love y-"
i kiss him back.
"holy guacamole!" eddie yells.
richie and i both turn around to see the losers staring at us,
his arms still wrapped around my waist.
"oh no" richie and i say in sync
"are you guys a couple now!?"
"*your ship name with richie!* *your ship name with richie!* *your ship name with richie!*"
they all do kissy faces other than mike.
mike stares at us in shock.
"everyone shut the hell up!" richie yells and everyone shuts up.
mike swims up to richie and splashes him.
"what was that for?!"
"for being the worst brother ever!"
"oh no" everyone says in sync.
"why? because i kissed (y/n) first?"
"guys i'm gonna go" eddie says as he swims away.
"that and-"
"and what mike?! we've known each other for 3 weeks and you already want to start a fight with me?!" richie yells at mike.
"wait! eddie, i'm coming too!" beverly follows eddie.
"richie! mike! stop it right now!" i scream at the two boys.
"richie come with me!"
"why?"
"just come here. okay?"
"okay.."
we both swim away from mike.
i climb on top of him and push him underwater.
i then kiss him underwater.
as we float back up, he wraps his arms around my waist.
"can we just kiss normally?" richie smirks
"sure." i wrap my arms around his neck.
as we're about to kiss, we hear bill scream "t-that's h-henry bow-ers c-ar!"
(yes, i know henry, henry's dad, and patrick died but let's just pretend they're all still alive.)
"EVERYONE LETS RUN INTO THE FOREST!" i yell.
richie grabs me closer and swims as fast as he can to shore.
as soon as everyone got out of the water, we made a run for it.
"everyone! run to the library! we'll go to the basement and they'll never find us there!" mike (from IT) yells.
"pennywise was chasing me in th-"
"ben! it'll be fine. pennywise is gone, remember?" i yell.
"oh, yeah!"
we finally made it there.
i think the bowers' are still looking for us at the quarry.
"everyone! into the library!" richie yells
we then start slowing down.
we all find hiding places in the basement.
"is everyone okay?" beverly asks.
"yeah!" everyone says except for eddie.
"HELL NO! YOU GUYS DON'T EVEN KNOW HOW MANY GERMS ARE DOWN HERE! I MEAN LOOK AT ALL THE DUS-"
"eddie, if you yell any louder, we're all gonna get caught!" stanley yells at him.
"richie?"
"yeah hot cakes?"
"did we forget mike?"
"WHEELER ARE YOU HERE?!"
"shhh richie!"
i punch his arm.
"shut up, tozier!" mike yells.
" yep, he's here."
richie sits me on his lap."
"we didn't get to kiss, remember?" he smirks.
"oh, yeah." i smirk.
we both start kissing each other.
he moves his hand up and down my back.
"hey four eyes! is that your new girlfriend you're making out with? or is that your cousin?!"
"EVERYONE, LETS GO!!!" mike (IT) yells.
"shut the hell up, bowers!" i yell at him as we run outside.
he grabs me from behind and pulls out a knife.
i yell.
"hey tozier, do you want me do stab your girlfriend?!" henry smirks.
"no!" richie yells at the top of his lungs.
he runs to henry.
the other losers try to pull him back but he doesn't let them.
"walk any closer and your "girlfriend" is getting stabbed! hahaha!"
"you know what the difference is between you and richie?" i ask him to distract him from richie.
"no, what is it? he's an idiot and i'm not?"
"beep! beep! beep! you're wrong! the difference is his dad actually loves him!"
richie pushes him down and he lets go of me.
"hey, hot cakes! here are my glasses!" he throws his glasses at me.
i put them on and wink at him.
he smiles at me.
he starts punching henry.
"this is what you get!"
"you really think i'm gonna let a four eyed midget get away with punching me?"
"yeah, you will now!"
he signals for me to come here.
"what is your stupid girlfriend gon-"
i start kicking henry.
"OW"
the other losers fought the two other bullies.
henry pushes richie off of him.
"RICHIE ARE YOU OKAY!?"
"I'M FINE, MY LOVE!"
"YOU LOSERS ARE SO DONE THE NEX TIME WE FIND YOU!"
"henry, isn't your "daddy" gonna beat you when you get home?" richie yells at him.
"s-shut up four eyes!"
they run away.
"go blow your dad yo-"
i cut him off by kissing him.
he wraps his arms around my waist and sits me on his lap,
not breaking the kiss.
we both pull away for air.
"i love you, richie."
"i love you too."
he kisses me again.
hey y'all i hope you enjoyed this! i'm sorry for it being super long.
