Loserless love ||Reddie

$-the great Kiss-$

Eddie sighed as he sat down by a particular red head.
Beverly Marsh.

"Why did you invite Richie?" She scoffed crossing her arms. Eddie groaned, "Bev, shut the hell up, please?" Eddie remarked glaring at the girl as he pinched the bridge of his nose. Bev immediately shut up realizing Eddie was actually annoyed.

Eddie pulled at his turtle neck anxiously. He had been waiting for Richie as Bev carried on, and on about how Richie is bad influence. Eddie hadn't realized he hadn't taken his pills, he froze. "Shit," He whispered to himself as he opened the fanny pack.(which laid perfectly on his waist.)

He took out two pills swallowing them dry as Bev ignored the boy and talked to some random girls. Eddie sighed and closed his fanny pack. He looked up to see Richie Tozier.

Richie had walked in overwhelmed by all the people. He didn't go to many parties but knew what they were. And how big they could get. Yet, this was a huge party most of the high school was there.

Richie looked around for Eddie unable to find the small boy. He stood in the middle of the living room. (which had been cleared out to form a dance floor) He then jumped turning in the air as he did as a finger tapped his shoulder. Eddie raised his hands quickly his eyes widened.

"Sorr-"
"Fuck, Eds! Scared the shit out of me." Richie breathed out holding his chest.
"Don't call me that." Eddie scoffed trying not to grin. He loved the nickname truly but would never admit that. Richie smirked pinching his cheek. "EdsEdsEdsEdsEdsEdsEdsEdsEds." Richie said rapidly, Eddie let out a small giggle before frowning and biting his lip.

Eddie grabbed Richie's wrist before dragging him over to Beverly. Which had been glaring at Richie. Eddie jumped slightly letting go of Richie's wrist as the taller boy adjusted his glasses. "Bev! So you know Ri-"

"Yeah I know Trashmouth." She interrupted causing Richie to scoff. "Jeez Marsh! Got a stick up your ass or something?" Richie joked resting his arm on Eddie's shoulder. Eddie bit his lip knowing Bev hated Richie. "Rich.." Eddie breathed out hooking his finger on Richie's belt loop. Richie noticed the small gesture and his face softened.

"Sorry." He whispered so only Eddie could hear. Bev crossed her arms her fiery hair tucked behind her left ear. It had grown past her shoulders resting just above her elbows. "Richard Tozier don't infect Eddie with your disgusting diseases. I have a party to run." She kicked off of the post (Which was in the corner of the living room) which she had been leaning on and walked by Richie's shoulder whispering. "Keep him safe fuck face." She pushed against his shoulder walking away.

Eddie pouted, "I'm sorry about her.." Eddie sighed still holding onto Richie's belt loop like his life depended on it. Richie nodded, "Do you like parties now or something?" Richie laughed twirling his fingers in the back of Eddie's hair. Eddie giggled beginning to walk around the party with Richie. "I guess, they're pretty cool except for all the germs and sexual tensio-" Eddie caught himself before he finished his sentence.

"Woah, Eds! Why is everything sex with you?" Richie joked a wild grin on his face. Eddie's face turned red unseen to most because of the flashing lights. But Richie could tell as he admired the boy. "S-shut up Trashmouth!" Eddie stuttered punching Richie's arm playfully.

Richie laughed before realizing what Eddie was wearing. He almost choked on his own spit.

Eddie had on a white turtle neck which was cropped laying just above his belly button. And some black booty shorts which were pulled above his belly button to hide it. (Eddie hated when people showed they're belly buttons unless swimming or doing something..... Else.) He also had on white sneakers. Richie's face lit up in all shades of red.

"You look fucking hot."

Richie barely realized he had said that until Eddie stopped taking out his inhaler which was on his shorts. (Eddie had a clip which held his inhaler to the back of whatever shorts or pants he was wearing.) He took a large puff from it. He ten hooked it back on the clip and tried to get rid of his blush which was now visible as they stood in a kitchen (which no one dare occupied). 

"Shit- sorr-"
"You look hot to, bubs."

Richie coughed his face red out of embarrassment and adore for the small boy in front of him. Music was now distant, to the two boys at least. As they stared into each others eyes. Eddie self consciously took Richie's glasses off his face. Richie laid his big hands on Eddie's waist. Eddie lifted his hand to Richie's cheek. Richie leaned down as Eddie stood on his tip toes. They're lips only inches apart both parted. Richie closed his eyes, Eddie's were halfway closed until-

"SEVEN MINUTES OF HEAVEN!"
