"Eddieeee," Richie whined as he pushed some of his tumbling curls out of his face to look up at his shorter boyfriend, "Come back to bed." He made a grabbing motion with his hands towards Eddie's arm but was too tired to actually move forward so he could grab it. It was early in the morning and Richie did not want to get up yet.

Eddie looked at the gorgeous giant he called his boyfriend and rolled his eyes before climbing back into bed, "You're lucky you're cute, you know that Tozier?" He smirked slightly. That just caused Richie to laugh, "You're the cute one, Eds." That caused Eddie to pretend to get back out of the bed again, "Don't call me Eds." but Richie simply this time grasped his wrist and lightly tugged him back down the pair giggling as Eddie fell on top of Richie.

"God, I love you," Richie mumbled softly, his voice slightly groggy from not long having woken up and still being tired, his eyes were shining with adoration and love as he looked at Eddie. "Yeah, yeah I love you too," The other boy chuckled and smiled down at him.

Pure happiness that was what they both felt in this moment, cuddled up and together despite everything. Managing to pull through has been a fight especially considering Sonia believed that being gay was a disease and when she found out her son had that disease and it was Richie that had given him it... she banned him from seeing his boyfriend. That, of course, did not stop the couple together as Richie would sneak in Eddie's window at night and the losers would lie for them so they could go on dates saying that Eddie was studying at one of their houses and 'of course that disgusting Tozier boy would not be there' and Sonia fell for it.

There were still in that spot but Sonia had gone to visit her sister for the weekend which meant that Richie would stay overnight without having to worry about leaving extremely early hence why he was so insistent on just cuddling in Eddie's bed cause it was a luxury that he did not get often. Eddie knew this and honestly found it adorable.

"You're so beautiful, Eds... almost as beautiful as your mom," Richie smiles cheekily as he cupped his boyfriend's face with one hand so that Eddie was forced to face him. He just wanted to look at him, he could not believe that Eddie was real. The boy was too perfect and completely and utterly gorgeous. Eddie thought the same thing about Richie and his face had flushed red at the compliment... until he had mentioned Sonia and then he tried to scowl but really was holding back a laugh.

To the two of them this is what love was, lying in bed making each other laugh and whispering loving words, they were both so incredibly happy with each other and that was good enough for them. They would make things work, they had too as neither of them wanted it to fail.
