we finally reached the Quarry where Beverly was laying out tanning while the three boys sat around staring at her. we both hopped off the bike and Richie dropped it. all of them turned around looking at us weirdly. "where the fuck have you been?!" Eddie questioned. "listen, i can explain all of this. i promise." i said while taking my shirt off revealing a white sports bra. Richie bit his lip and began to talk before i pushed his forehead as a way to say shut up. Eddie looked at both of us waiting for an explanation and i finally spoke up,"i'm sorry. when we got to my house we went straight to my room and then i looked everywhere for a swimsuit before i remembered i didn't have one because i threw them away last year so while i was putting my clothes up my brother got home and a lot of shit happened there but we didn't die and now we're here and that's all that matters. right?..." i said a bit out of breath. Eddie looked at me obviously feeling kinda bad for being mad earlier. i smiled and kissed Eddie's cheek and taking my shorts off. "have y'all even jumped in yet?" i asked. they all shook their heads which made me roll my eyes. "sissies." i said before jumping in. they all rushed over to the edge and then i heard one of them yell, "What the fuck!" which i'm guessing was Richie. i reached the bottom and then looked back up to see Beverly about to jump. the second she left the cliff i heard Richie yell(again),"Holy shit dude! we're getting played by girls!". Beverly came back up and laughed before running her hand through her hair. "go get your girlfriend." Stan said while pushing him in. i laughed and when Richie hit the water and came back up he was an absolute blushing mess. i smiled before the rest of the boys jumped down. "chicken fight!!" Richie yelled from behind me and before i knew it he grabbed my legs and threw me on his shoulders. i squealed before getting stable and smiling down at him. Beverly hopped on top of Bill's shoulders and just like that we were pushing each other around. Beverly finally knocked me in which made me scream a little and laugh. i went under the water and opened my eyes when i felt someone grab my arm. i could somewhat make out Richie smiling, so i smiled back before getting closer to him acting like i was going to kiss him and then quickly coming above water. when he came back up he just glared at me. i laughed and swam to shore.

-4 hours later-

everyone spent about 3 more hours at the Quarry until we all came home. it was around 9pm now and i was laying on my bed thinking about everything that happened today. just as i started to doze off, i heard something hit my window. i sat straight up and opened my window to see Richie smiling. i rolled my eyes and motioned to him that i'd be down in a moment. i grabbed my bag and snuck out the window, closing it behind me. i slid down the roof and jumped onto a tree and then onto the ground. "did you have fun, monkey?" Richie asked. i rolled my eyes and jumped on the back of his bike. "where are we heading?" i asked. "wouldn't you love to know, peaches." he replied while riding down the middle of the road. i laid my head on his back and tightened my grip around his waist and whispered to myself, "this is all i could ever need in life.". "hm?" Richie asked while pulling into a small path in the woods. "oh nothing." i smiled, still resting my head on his back. he stopped the bike which made me open my eyes to see a picnic blanket and a few candles. i let go of his waist and got off the bike before turning back towards Richie. "you did this?" i asked. "what? no. Henry did." he said sarcastically. i laughed and sat down a bit shocked. "i-it's beautiful, Rich." i smiled. he sat down and smiled, "i'm glad you like it. after noticing what a piece of shit brother you had, i figured you needed away. even if it was just a small picnic.". "Richie. i know we've only known each other for a few hours but i appreciate everything you've done for me. it means so so much to me and even though you can be a bit of a douche im really really thankful for you." i smiled. he began blushing like crazy and just smiled. we sat under the stars for what felt like hours but was only about an hour. Richie looked at his watch and said, "10:24." and leaned over to face me. i sighed and sat up before grabbing one of the candles (that were no longer lit) and shoving it in my bag. "i'm taking a candle home to remember this night." i said with a laugh. he got on his bike and said,"Jesus, why are you stealing candles from me?". i rolled my eyes and got on the bike with him and just like that we started riding back home.

we finally reached my house, i didn't want to go home but i had to. i kissed Richie's cheek and jumped on the tree and then onto the roof and back inside. i turned around to see Richie waving at me before driving home. i smiled and placed the candle on my desk before changing into a pair of short shorts and a white tank top and jumped in bed and just like that i fell asleep with a smile on my face.
