The cabin - Reddie

chapter 5 ~ the kiss

The kiss.. It felt exactly how he'd always imagined it, but better. Eddie's lips were so soft and tasted of butterscotch and icing. Eddie kissed him back, which was very unexpected. Richie quickly pulled away, regretting what he just did. What if it ruins their friendship. It wasn't long enough for Eddie, he pulls him back into a gentle but passionate kiss. Pushing Richie down so he is on top of him, he then forces Richie's mouth open to push his tongue in. Richie grabs ahold of the smaller boys waist while Eddie has his hands on Richie's jaw. Richie accidentally lets out a small groan into the kiss, immediately going red. But to Eddie it's like music to his ears.

Eddie starts to slowly grind against Richie then all of a sudden the door flies open, Stanley is standing in the doorway, jaw dropped so low it could touch his toes.

"W-what.. The.. FRICK" Stanley yells.

"W-what is it S-Stan?" Bill calls from the living room.

"Nothing!" Eddy says before Stanley can say anything, he then gets off Richie and runs over to the door pulling Stanley in and closing it behind them.

"Please, please, please don't tell anybody about this. Not even Bill, I beg you" Eddie pleads, Richie bites his lip both from being nervous and extremely aroused.

"Fine.. but, you both need to explain to me what's going on later. Deal?" Stanley demands.

"Deal" Both boys say at the same time.

Stanley and Eddie both leave the room at the same time closing the door behind them, leaving Richie alone on his and Ben's bed, very hot and uncomfortable. So much is going through his mind at the same time.

'Does he like me? What was that about? Will Stan tell anyone? And how on earth can I get rid of this painful erection with no affection?' He slides his hand in his pants and does the dirty, thinking about Eddie and the kiss, how Eddie's small body grinded down on him. He pumped his hand faster and faster until he was just about to reach his high, Eddie stuck his head through the door and they made solid eye contact as Richie's hips lifted off the bed and he let out a low moan while finishing up. After Eddie snapped out of it he quickly closed the door with a cherry red face. Richie is so exhausted he falls asleep with his hands in his pants and not even acknowledging what just happened.

Eddie sits on the couch, completely still. He doesn't know what just happened, he can't explain it. Will he ever be able to look at Richie again? They just kissed and then.. Then he saw him- This is too much for him to handel, maybe he should go for a walk. Just as he was about to stand up and walk out the door, Bill yells.

"D-DINNER IS READY" Everybody bolts to the kitchen, except Richie?

'Why isn't Richie here? Is he too embarrassed?' Eddie questions in his head, he hopes this doesn't ruin their friendship.

"Where's Richie?" Bev asks, concerned.

"I'll go check" Ben walks towards the room, opening it for a second before slamming it shut and rushing back to the kitchen yelling. "Ew. Ew. Ew" He shivers.

"What's wrong?" Mike questions. Eddie's imagination is running wild.

"He had his hand down his pants while sleeping!" Ben exclaims. Stanley looks at Eddie and smirks, Eddie furrows his eyebrows and rolls his eyes before grabbing a bowl and a serving.

"H-He can eat l-later" Bill suggests

Everybody nods and grabs a serving, sitting on the couch. Beverly goes to the tv and puts on the first decent movie she could find, they turned off all the lights so it's more relaxing and easier to concentrate on the movie. Beverly sits on the single couch again, Bill and Mike on the floor, Ben on the end of the three seater couch, Stanley in the middle and Eddie on the other end with his legs draped over Stanley. They all finish their dinner and Bev goes to the kitchen to wash up and brings back snacks. Stanley starts playfully playing with Eddie toes, whispering.

"This little piggy went to the market, this little piggy went wee-wee-wee-wee all the way home-" Then tickling Eddie.

A door opens down the hallway, light filling the room before the door closes again. Tired Richie enters the room, His shirt somehow disappeared from his body, showing off his perfectly toned torso. He puts his hand through his hair, making his muscles flex. Eddie's jaw dropped, heat immediately rushing to his soft cheeks. Richie notices how close Stan is getting to Eddie and get's very jealous. He quickly but still tiredly struts over and lifts up Eddie legs, somehow fitting in between the two. Eddie pulls his legs up to his chest faster than light, too awkward to even touch Richie.

"Richie what the hell? It's a three seater couch, you're squishing us all" Stan rolls his eyes.

A few minutes pass and Richie stretches his arms out, his left hand lands on Eddie's clothed chest making the smaller boy flinch at the touch. Richie feels the rate Eddie's heartbeat is going and leans down to whisper something into his ear, but as soon as Edward feels the others breath touch his ear he bolts up.

"I'm going to my room" He says quickly before fast walking off. Stanley stands up after him.

"I'm going to talk to him, everyone stay here" Richie gets furious after hearing that, stupid Stan is trying to steal Eddie.

Stanley walks into Eddie sitting on his bed with his face in his hands, muttering.

"Stupid me, Stupid Richie, Stupid HOT Richie" Stanley sits next to him and puts his hand on Eddie's back. He can't help but giggle a bit at the others words and reaction to the touch.

"You okay there Eddie?" Eddie lifts his head from his hands and looks at Stan.

"No. Yes? I don't know" He falls back onto the bed and continues to look at Stanley. "I think I like Richie" He huffs, finally admitting it to himself.

"Ya think? It's very obvious. Your reactions to his flirtyness and his touch, you go as red as a tomato. Also, it seems he likes you too" Stan laughs. Eddie shoots up, his eyes wide open.

"H-he likes ME?" He feels a million butterflies fly around in his stomach. "Well... What should I do?" He really doesn't know if he should tell Richie or not.

"I think you should do whatever you're comfortable with, but confessing your feelings might end up how you want it" He winks and stands up, walking back out and leaving Eddie to think.

After ten minutes of pasing around the room Eddie swings open the door, slamming it behind him and stomping down the hallway, all the way to the lounge room. He stands for a second before grabbing Richie's bare arm and pulling him up with more strength than he knew he had.

"You're coming with me" Eddie demands. Everybody except Stanley looks shocked, he is sitting there with a large smirk plastered on his face. Eddie pulls Richie out the front door, closing it behind them. It's cold outside, and dark. He doesn't know why he decided to go outside but it's too late to go back now. Once they're a safe distance from the cabin Eddie let's go of Richie's wrist and turns to look at him.

"Richie..." He looks up into his confused eyes, trying to ignore the fact he is shirtless. He takes a breath it is visible through the cold air. "I... really really like you."
