In the next two days, Richie and Eddie were out of the hospital, and Rich had ended up at bill's with Eddie, his mother, and his brother. It was a tight squeeze, but that was fine by him. Because , he had expected it to be months before he saw the losers again, before he saw Eddie. Yeah, he couldn't do much as he and Eddie were still recovering, but it was worth it, toooootally worth it. He and Eddie didn't spend so much as two minutes apart in the time rich was in town. But it wouldn't be for long.... and before he knew it richie would be back in Indiana, without his losers.
He had three days. 72 hours. 4,320 minutes. 259,000 seconds....... it just wasn't enough. He couldn't stand being away from them... especially Eddie.
But in the time he did have in Maine, they wanted to spend it all together. So Bev invited them all to her Aunt's house, because bill's just didn't have enough room for eleven people. Karen had made friends in tHe Denborough household, and decided to stay, just for awhile.
When Richie arrived at bev's, he was showered in hugs from the losers, as well as Eddie and mike. He even got a hug from Stan, which was quite an uncommon occurance.
"I wasn't expecting to see you back so soon." Bev said, a grin plastered on her face.
"Believe me, I know. Seems like nothing can keeps us apart huh?"
Eddie stood best to him, head buried in his shoulder. The two wandered over to the couch, and Richie sat down, Eddie lying across his lap. Richie played with his hair as they talked amongst the losers, eventually lulling Eddie to sleep. Every few minutes richie would look down at the sleeping boy in his lap, and his smile would grow twice it's size looking at the peaceful expression on his face.
He would get distracted looking at Eddie, and Stan would have to snap him out of his trance, and jokingly tell him he was gonna get in trouble for PDA. Eventually Eddie woke up and the losers' conversation came to an end when then decided to watch a horror film. They decided on 'Nightmare on Elm Street'
The losers lasted about about the first hour, before they were a tangle of sleeping losers. They woke up late, around eleven, and ate a mix of pop tarts, cereal, toaster waffles, and toast. They spent awhile at Bev's, but soon got bored and decided to go where some of their best memories were made- the quarry. They all agreed that mike needed to see it before he left Derry- and they needed to give him the grande tour of their oh-so-dreadful town.
