13 ~ Move, I'm gay

Richie's Pov:

I think I'm going to ask Eddie out.

To be my boyfriend.

Crazy, right?

I know I sound desperate, but I'm constantly in need of his touch. Whenever he isn't around, it's mentally impossible for me to be happy.

But when he's around me, I'm the happiest that I can get.

When he hugs me... it makes me feel like: "😚☺️"

He gives really good hugs for how tiny he is.

He feels like a warm fuzzy christmas blanket that you can just snuggle up into.

So comfy and... warm.

I just want so badly to be able to hug him, kiss him, or be around him whenever I wanted.

It honestly would make me the happiest person in the world.

Waking up in the morning and immediately getting a kiss or hug from Eddie?

Holy shit.

That happening is equivalent to earning 5 billion dollars.

Oh, I would give everything I own in order to be with him.

I would even sell my soul to the devil himself if that meant I could happily live or be with Eddie.

I mean, he did say he liked me..

So why am I so afraid to actually do something about it?

Right now, we just have constant flirting thing between us, we occasionally hold hands (when no on is around), and I've kissed him on the cheek and forehead before, but nothing more.

We are practically dating, but whenever we ACTUALLY want to kiss, someone or something always has to interrupt.

The other night I was spending the day with Eddie, because, that's what one lonely trashmouth like me would do... and I was about to kiss him, but his mom fucking comes home and Eddie had to push me out his window.

Worst. Day. Of. My life.

I was like, 'Hey! Finally a time where we don't get any interruptions.'

Ugh... I hate that woman.

She faked Eddie's sickness, she essentially locked him inside the house, she hates all of us because "we broke his arm", she called Bev a slut, I COULD GO ON.

Now I can't kiss Eds because of her?

Nononono.

I've waited for this, for almost 3 years.

Im not going to let his mother, out of all people, ruin it for us.

Thursday, 6:40 am

Every morning, at 6:40, me and Eddie meet up at the normal spot to bike to school.

After the whole thing with Stan and Bev interrupting us, me and Eddie decided to avoid riding with the losers to school until all the teasing had calmed down a bit.

They may have been fine with me and Eddie being gay, but that doesn't mean everyone will be.

We both knew for a fact that they would somehow manage to tell the entire universe that we are gay within 5 minutes.

No risk taking.

Taking risks can be lethal. Especially for us fairies.

I know the entire school knows already that me and Eddie are gay, but lot's of people just believed it was just me joking around again like I always am.
