Chapter FiveEddies POV
After about an hour and a half of talking, laughing, and kissing, we were ready to leave the quarry. It's was now 9 am, and we had to get to school in thirty minutes if we didn't want to be late.
Richie grabbed my hand and we walked out of the forest and onto the road that would take us into school.
"Hey, Rich..?" I stopped walking to look in his eyes. "Yes, Eds? What's wrong" he said, taking both of my small hands in his large, dry ones. I soon avoided his eyes. I felt guilty asking this question but I had to clarify something with Richie before we started dating more.
"Can we.. can we not tell anybody about..us? I don't want my mom finding out." My hands grew sweaty and I let go of Richie's to wipe them in my shorts. "Of course Spaghetti, I wouldn't want to risk your safety. Ever." He says gently giving me a reassuring look.
I lean in about to kiss Richie until I hear a loud laugh come from the other side of the street. I jump back quickly and shove my hands in my pockets. I look for where the laughs are coming from but the morning sun is too bright in my eyes.
Turns out it was Stan and Bill. But they hadn't noticed us yet. As soon as a cloud rolled over the sun I could see them clearly. Stan's hand was gently closed around Bill's hand, and his face was as red as mine from when I first kissed Richie.
But as soon as Bill saw us he dropped Stan's hand so fast in hopes we didn't see it. But we did. They rush over to us to try and make up some excuse for why they were holding hands.
But before they could embarrass themselves any further, Richie held up a hand to get them to stop rambling.
"Guys, guys it's fine. We've all always known anyways." Richie laughed. Bill blushed and I giggled. "Yeah guys, we could always tell you liked each other. Especially this year, with you both sneaking off somewhere during lunch together." After I said that, now it was Stan's turn to blush.
"Yeah... I guess there is no point in hiding it from you anymore. We are a couple now. We have been for a while. But you CAN'T tell anyone okay?" Stan pleaded. "Of course, we won't tell anybody I promise." I put a hand on his shoulder to reassure him. "No Eddie, I'm not worried about you.." Both if the boys shifted their gaze to Richie. He places a had on his chest and sarcastically pretended to be wounded by their words. "Richie, they are serious. Please don't tell anyone." I look up into his eyes pleading with him. "Okay okay fine. I promise I will never tell anyone." Richie said, now being serious.
"H-hey by the w-w-way.. what are you t-two doing h-here together a-anyways?" Bill asked. Richie's eyes got wide and I shifted my gaze to the floor. "Hmm?" Stan said, now pressuring the boys with his smirk.
"Umm..nothing..?" Richie said awkwardly.
"Richie... I think we should be honest and tell them.." I whispered in his ear, so only he could hear. "If that's what you want Ed's.."
"Well? What's going on with you two lately?" Stan asked. I didn't know how to tell them. So I grabbed Richie's shirt by the collar and pulled him in. I locked lips with his soft, pink ones. But this time Richie didn't tense up. Immediately, he kissed back, like he had read my mind. The kiss was passionate and I almost forgot Stan and Bill were still standing there.
Almost.
They looked at us. With the widest eyes, I've ever seen a human have.
