HEART ACHE <3 REDDIE

chap 32: moms gone

Richie

I felt sun flooding into my eyes and squinted. There was a weight on my chest, which upon me opening my eyes I found Eddie curled up. His cheeks pink and his hair messy. The corner of my mouth twitched up into a smile, and I questioned closing my eyes again.

But school. Eddie was going to lose his shit over missing school again. I attempted to slip out from his grip without moving him too much, but he just wrapped his arms around my torso and squeezed.

Jesus fuck you little shit. Let off with your death grip.

"Eds."

"Hm?" he hummed, shifting his legs a bit. His soft legs against my own, tangled together.

I'm dreaming. His head isn't really laying on my chest and I don't really have my arm wrapped around him. This isn't real.

"Eddie. Are you up?"

He whined, burying his face into my arm. I felt my face heat up. I was suddenly so flustered.

"I am now." he whimpered, blinking his big eyes up at me. Glassy and round.

"Sorry. Class. We're gonna be late." I suddenly became aware of his soft smile, his chin resting on my chest, his cheeks pink and freckled.

"I don't wanna go." He muttered.

"What about your mom? We can't just hang out here." He retaliated, mostly because I really wanted to keep my A average but being so close to Eddie felt so so good.

"Bingo."

"Bingo?" I cocked an eyebrow.

"She's at bingo, dumbass," he groaned, rolling onto his back and staring at his ceiling. I nearly pouted at the lost contact of his body, but I grinned and propped myself up on my elbow, looking at him.

"What?" he snapped and I reached my arm over him, pulling myself above him, and he didn't hesitate to open his legs to make room for my body. His face turned bright red and the cockiness he seemed to have just moments before seemed to disappear.

"Well, your mom is gonna be gone..." I smirked and he chewed on his lip, furrowing his eyebrows at me. I moved my face just inches above his, my hair falling over my eyes.

"Cut it out, Rich. This isn't funny."

"Come on. I finally get to kiss you and shit. Just let me deflower little Eds." I poked my bottom lip out but didn't stop smiling. Eddie seemed to consider it, opening his mouth to reply but before I could let him talk I pressed my lips to his, our tongues clashing.

His hands flew to my back, digging his nails into my shirt when I grinded my hips down.

"Richie-" He gasped, which made my hair stand on ends.

"You'll forgive my lack of modesty, I've waited awhile for this." I moved my lips to his neck and snaked my hand to the waistband of his pajama bottoms, getting it halfway down his briefs before he grabbed my wrist.

"Get off." He whined.

I stopped, looking down at him. He had his eyes squeezed shut and his hand never left my wrist.

"I said get off me!" He yelled and I jumped a bit, falling onto my back beside him.

I groaned and ran my hand down my face because of the erection that had grown in my bottoms. We both just stared at the ceiling for a second.

"I'm sorry," he whispered, "I've just... I haven't even kissed a girl before, ya know. And this is all so quick and I'm scared and... and... I want it to be special, ya know?"

I turned my head to look at him to see him already looking at me.

"With me?" I asked softly.

"Well... yeah." He blushed, seeming to swallow sharply. A grin cracked over my face.

"Can I just... hold you?" I asked.

Eddie tucked in his lips and turned his back to me, which I took as an opening to wrap my arm around his waist, pressing my lips to his back a few times, leaving a couple of soft kisses.

He placed his small hand on top of mine and sighed.

And I was content.
