I Can't Believe It's You - Reddie

Chapter One

Screams filled the dark cold room. His hands, cold at the tips, but warming up to his palms. He grips his jacket and pushes hard down on the wound. He looks down at him, conflicted. Tears swelling up in his eyes, making his vision blurry.

Bev and the others have already left to go distract Pennywise, leaving him and Eddie alone. Richie swallows a thick clump in his throat and his mouth waters. He whined as he looks over at Pennywise through the opening and back over to Eddie. He was turning cold.

He bit his bottom lip and closed his eyes. He let out a sigh, to relax himself. He can do this, all he needs is for them to distract Pennywise more and he can get Eddie out of here. His breath hitches of the thought of that.

Richie pulls Eddie close, whispering in his ear, "I'm gonna get you out of here, don't worry Eds." The only this Eddie could do his let out a cough. At least a sign that he was still alive.

Richie looks over at Pennywise and the group one more time before he scoops Eddie in his arms. A single tears runs down his face as he bring Eddie's forehead close and kisses it.

Richie slowly climbs his way up and out of the spot they were in. Bev spots them and he gives her a sorry look. She gives it back and runs the opposite side of the cave. The group following her, as well as Pennywise. Richie softly thanked her and bolted to the opening where they came from.

Once he reached there, he pulled Eddie closer to him, since it was going to be a rough time doing this. He cried out in a sob voice as his long legs ran to the sewers. Once he got to the ladder he set Eddie down. He kneeled down beside him to check if he was still alive. "H-hey, Eddie." He cupped his check, it was cold.

Richie softly whined to himself and moved closer to Eddie. Eddie's eyebrow furrowed in protest of Richie moving closer and he moved his head out of Richie's palm. Richie let out a breathy laugh and stood up. He moves Eddie to his back, cupping him with one arm and having the other climb the ladder.

He climbs out and cupped Eddie with both of his arm, to keep him stable. He huffed and started to run again. Richie made it back to the house and went up the stairs, leading to the door. The bursted out of the house, almost falling over. The cool breeze of the day hit his cold body. He shivered and panicked a bit. Thinking of ways he can get Eddie to the hospital.

Car. He though and looked at where he parked his car. A block or two away from the house. He inhaled and started to run towards it. Once he left the house, he could really feel the pain in his legs from carrying another person as well as his own weight. Richie made it to his car and carefully set Eddie down in the back seat, laying him down. He quickly closed the door and opened the driver's door, starting the car.

He drove well over the speed limit to reach the hospital. Once he was there and didn't care to close the door or anything. He grabbed Eddie and ran into the emergency opening. He screams help and the room fell silent. Soon a flood of staff came and helped Richie and Eddie. They took Eddie away from Richie and down into an emergency surgery.

They checked on Richie a bit after, cleaning him up and looking at his bruises, giving him some pain killers. They asked him questions but Richie couldn't answer. He was too tired and fazed to answer anything right now. They left him after a while and trying to get something out of him and only getting a few 'Yes's and 'I don't know's. 

A sudden relief washed over him and he fell back onto the bed. He got Eddie out, alive. And he was in surgery right now. Though that had we worried, his smiled over though that, and he closed his eyes.
