*Eddie Kaspbrak*

"Wait, pregnant?" Richie exclaims. I can't tell if he's mad or not. Maggie nods, Richie jumps up, excitedly.

"I'm going to be a big brother!" Richie yells, he hugs Maggie. I smile, knowing he's happy.
"How many months along?" I ask.

"Two," She says. When Richie and I leave, we walk back to Eddie's.

"Are you going to move back into your old house?" I question. I mean I'm okay if he does but I want to be with him 24 hours a day.

"Probably not. With both of our jobs, we could get a small apartment right out of college," Richie explains. He wants to live with me, even though it's been almost two years, I still get surprised when he says something about a future together. We walk into my house, brush our teeth, and instead of Richie going to his room like usual, he follows me to mine.

"Richie, don't you want to sleep in your room like usual?" I ask.

"I wanna be with my spaghetti right now," Richie explains. I nod, I know he's scared for college. I make space for him right next to me. He climbs into bed with me, I wrap my arms around him and he does the same for me.

"You excited to be a big brother?" I ask.

"Yeah, I'm just worried the baby won't like me," Richie explains, sighing. I cup his face in my small hands.

"Chee, you're a very likable person. Plus, you're good with kids," I state. Richie nods, I start to whisper song lyrics into Richie's ear until he falls asleep. I kiss his forehead.

"I love you, Chee."
