Richie's POV: ~A few days after Will and El showed up, Saturday~

Today is the day, I'm getting new parents. It's gonna take me a while to get used to them, but I know it's for the better. It was already 11AM and I looked like shit, my hair was a mess, I was wearing some random shirt with a Hawaiian button front and a pair of jeans and the house looked like literal trash. I decided that if I wanted to make a good impression so they don't hate me like my.. actual parents, I need to at least make the house look okay, even if they're not there for long. It's gonna be really weird when the CPS knocks on my door, what will I say? 'Hey I'm Richie Tozier, yeah I'm that kid that had the drunk abusive parents, what's your name?' God, what the fuck am I thinking? I'll just figure it out when they get here..

~An hour later~

While I was looking through my room for something to do I found something.. Something I thought I got rid of a long time ago. My dad's gun, even if they would abuse me, my mum wasn't always an ass. She used to be nice, even if I wasn't exactly what they wanted, I know they wanted a girl.. I heard them arguing about it before my mum became a raging alcoholic. But that was six years ago, isn't it fun to hear your father didn't want you when you're seven? No, not really. When my mum was working and my dad was passed out I snuck into their room and stole his gun, I wasn't gonna use it, not yet at least, but I didn't want him to shoot my mum, who knows what the fuck he'd do..

The doorbell chimed snapping me out of my thoughts as I walked towards the front door. 

"Hello, is this the Tozier residence?" A lady with short blonde hair stood before me, she smiled sweetly as I nodded.

"I'm Lucy Phillips, here with the CPS." She said reaching her hand out and shaking my hand.

"I-I'ts nice to meet you Miss Phillips, I-I'm Richie, uh, d-do you want to come in?" I say moving out of the doorway.

"Please, call me Lucy, and there is no need to enter your house."

"Oh.. Why not?" 

"Why, you need to meet your foster parents of course! They're going to be at the centre soon, we don't want to keep them waiting."

"Oh, uh yeah.. right."

"Are you alright?" She asks as I slowly start walking

"Yeah, yeah I'm okay. Just a little nervous I guess." Bullshit, I'm more than a little nervous.

"Oh well that's okay, there's no need to be nervous." No, there's every reason to be nervous. What if they don't like me? What if their homophobic? What if I have to move away? Well, that wouldn't be the worst thing in the world but I would have to leave Eddie, the losers, I'd even be sad about leaving Will and El, they're all my second family..

~At the CPS or Adoption centre or something idk to be honest~

"Okay Richie, just follow me and we'll wait for your foster parents to arrive."

"Oh, okay." I say sitting down in one of the various chairs as Lucy walked out of the small cluttered room.

It was quiet again, the same silence I had previously experienced at my house when my parents weren't there.. Thoughts were beginning to flood my mind, some good, some bad, some confusing to understand even though I thought of them. I found myself falling down a loop hole of endless anxieties and thoughts before-
