The storyline was inspired by my lovely girlfriend, but the AU idea goes to my super cool friend Damaged_Writer18 . They both are great, I hope I write this au well.

Enjoy~

Richie's POV:

Today was moving day. My parents decided we should move out of our house to something a little bit bigger.

My parents picked a really strange house, it was old as fuck. It was huge though. I mean at least I have a large room to myself.

Once I bring all my stuff inside and get settled in, I decide to explore this place. My parents didn't know anything about this place, they only knew it has been here for years. I didn't even know this place was here.

After exploring almost every room in the house I stopped at the basement. I really didn't know if should go down there, it looked creepy as hell.

I was about to walk away from the basement and close the door but was startled by a loud bang coming from the basement.

I take a quick breather and start walking down the basement steps. Not the best idea but oh well.

Once I get down there, I spot some mice quickly run into the darkness. Obviously, I should have just assumed the mice caused the bang, I didn't though.

Of course, my curious ass had to explore.

The basement was large and empty for the most part. Except for a medium sized box sitting in one of the corners down here. I luckily found a light switch and flipped the lights on, they barely gave me any light, and just kept flickering.

I ignored the lights and slowly walked towards the box.

It looked like it had been sitting there for a long time, just collecting dust. It had no writing on it.

I had ripped some of the tape that was left on it off that was keeping it closed. I opened the box.

In it was some older style teen boys' clothes and a few bottles of expired pill, I couldn't read what type of pill they were due to the label basically decaying.

There was also a what I believed was a fanny pack. I checked the pockets and founds a few Band-Aids, another bottle of pills, and an inhaler.

I stood up holding the inhaler trying to look for maybe and name on it and I was in luck!

I couldn't read it very well, the lettering was almost faded, but what I could get was an 'Eddie' out of it.

"Eddie." I say out loud, and replay the name back in my head. It was kind of cute.

I suddenly hear something move around behind me.

I shoot myself around so fast that caused me to slip.

What I was assuming to feel was floor didn't come, I opened my eyes when I didn't hit the floor only to see myself lifted off the ground along with the inhaler I somewhat through in the air out of fear.

I start to panic as I was being set back down on the ground.

I swiftly turn around just to see a floating see through teen boy.

"What the fuck?!" I scream in confusion backing up into the wall. He floats closer to me. I start to panic even more.

"Wow, haven't ever seen a ghost before?" He asks, I slightly shake my head no.

"Well I'm Eddie. The guy you just named out loud. Oh, and that's my stuff you were looking at, and my inhaler you almost broke. Thanks very much for that by the way." The ghost says annoyedly.

I look him up and down, and laugh awkwardly, "So you're like actually a ghost?" I ask walking closer to him, he nods. I slide my hand through him, he moves back quickly.

"Hey! Quit that. Yes, I'm a ghost." He states and crosses his arms.

I move my glasses of my face and rub my face, this is real. There is actually a fucking ghost in front of me. What the fuck.

I look back up at him with my glasses back on.

"Richie Toziers the name. Don't wear it out. I'm the kid that just fell for you." I joke trying to ease the tense energy in the room and try to actually believe this is real.

He fucking blushed, I just made a ghost, a cute one, blush.

"You- you did not fall for me; I would have let you drop and just save the inhaler but I'm actually a nice person to trashmouths like you." He states obviously flustered and pissed.

I laugh at the nickname, "Well I see you have a unique taste in nicknames, but so do I, Ed's." I wink.

"Don't call me that."

I smile. "Never."

He rolls his eyes, "Anyway; Why don't you act like you're afraid of me like everyone else?" He asks and comes closer to me, "I was at first, but now I see you are actually quite cute, Ed's."

He starts to blush again, "I am not cute." I smirk, "You are, and that blush isn't making it any better for yourself."

Angerly he sits down giving up, I join him laughing in victory.

After a long time of talking in the dusty dark basement, we got to know each other better. Turns out he's really cool.

"I have to ask, Ed's." I look at him, He rolls his eyes and I continue, "How'd you die?"

He looks down, I can see slight pain and anger in his eyes. "My mother, she kept shoving random pills down throat since I was three, her reason was that "I was sick" I wasn't. All I can say was all the pills didn't mix well after years of them going down like water."

I stare at him; how can a mother do that to there own son. I go to rub his back but pull back remembering he was a ghost and I'd just go straight through him.

"I'm sorry, that really sucks." He nods, "It's fine, nothing I can do now."

We sit there in silence.

I speak up, "So, because you're dead you have like cool spooky powers right?"

He laughs,"Yeah, spooky powers." He answers.

I continue, "Can you leave this house?" I ask, he nods hesitantly, "Yeah I'm only aloud out for a few hours and I'm not allowed to leave the town but, uh, Rich where are you going with this?"

I ignore his question, "Who else can see you?"

He looks at me confused, "Anyone, if I let them though."

I start to smile. "Do you, maybe, think you can come to school with me? I have a bully I need to scare off, we'll make it look I can do magic, it would freak them out, you know how funny that would be?"

He shakes his head laughing. "I don't know trahmouth, something bad could happen."

I give him the puppy dog eyes, "Please, Ed's." I beg.

He sighs and smiles, "Fine. I'll do it."

I start bouncing up and down.

Tomorrow is going to be awesome.
