marry me // Reddie

4. Proposal

One year later~

     "Eddie spaghetti! Come here!" Richie called from his and eddies bedroom. Eddie walked into the room. "What?" He saw Richie and stopped walking. Richie was actually wearing really nice clothes for once. He looked hot. Eddie felt his knees get weak. He smiled. "Wow. You look. Really. Hot." Eddie mumbled out.

     Richie grinned. "Get dressed. We're going to dinner." Eddie returned the grin. "Okay." He ran into their closet and changed into something nice.

    They walked to the front door and Richie opened it. "After you mah lady." He said in a weird voice. Eddie smiled and rolled his eyes.

    When they got to the car Richie opened eddies door for him. "What has gotten into you. I like this Richie." Eddie said once Richie got in the car. Richie just looked at him and shrugged. "I just wanna treat my baby like the prince he is."

     They arrived at the restaurant and Richie took Eddie's arm in his so that their arms were linked together.

    They walked in and Eddie was shocked. This restaurant was extremely fancy. He knew it was going to be expensive. He looked at Richie and smiled. They never just go to fancy restaurant, what's going on?

     A waitress came by and gave them champagne and menus. Eddie almost had a heart attack when he saw the prices. He looked up at Richie. "Richie." He whispered once the waitress was out of earshot. "This is really expensive. Are you sure you want to do this?"

     "Eddie calm down, I have money. We're fine." Richie said, beaming. Eddie couldn't help but smile back. "Okay. If you say so." He took a sip of the champagne, that was probably over a hundred dollars just for this glass.

     They ate, drank, and chatted happily. Richie looked around nervously. And felt in his pocket for the ring. He took a deep breath. He was about to do it. He was about to propose to Edward Kaspbrak, the love of his life.

"Eddie?"

"Yeah?"

     "So you know I love you more than anything, right?" Richie asked.

"Yeah..?"

    "Then you know I want to spend the rest of my life with you." Richie said. Eddie stayed quiet, he knew what was coming.

     Richie got out of his chair and got down on one knee. "Edward spaghedward, will you marry me?"

    Eddie pretend he didn't hear that god awful nickname and he nodded, tears welling up in his eyes. "Yes!" He jumped out of his chair and jumped into Richie's arms, hugging him tightly.

     People in the restaurant started cheering. Richie grabbed Eddie'a face and crashed their lips together. He slid the ring on Eddie's finger while they were kissing. Eddie pulled back and admired the ring on his finger. "I love you." He whispered. "I love you, too." Richie replied.

     Richie paid for their meal and they left. On the way home he sent a picture of the ring on his finger to the group chat with Ben, Bill, Mike, and Beverly. They all started freaking out.

    Eddie looked over at Richie. "I should have known something was up and you took me to a fancy dinner. I didn't know you were going to propose until you started doing it." Richie smiled really big. "Good. That's how I wanted it to be."

     They arrived back at their apartment. "Edward Tozier. I like it." Eddie said smiling at Richie. Richie linked their hands together. "Me too."
