"WE'RE GOING CAMPI—!!" Stanley yelled but suddenly stopped himself when he saw Eddie and Richie, both of them broke the kiss and turned around to see Stanley and Bill standing there along with the rest of the losers who came through the door right after them, "seriously guys?" Richie rolled his eyes as Eddie got off of him and sat on the edge of the bed, "sorry, we didn't know you guys would be in the middle of a make out sesh," Beverly giggled before walking over to Richies desk chair and sitting down.

Richie grabbed his glasses from the bed and put them on, blinking a few times to adjust his eyes, "that's right, just come in here and make yourself at home," Richie said sarcastically, "how'd you know we were here?" Eddie asked, his fingers aching for Richies touch again, "you left your bikes out the front, and the door was unlocked," Mike replied as he sat down on the floor and leaned against the bed, throwing a random comic book that was there to the side.

"Anyway.." said Stanley, "we're all going camping and you two are coming as well, you have no choice,"

"Camping? As in sleeping outside in a dirty tent with bugs and trees and no sanitation? Yeah no thanks, that's a death trap," Eddie said as he got back up onto the bed and sat next to Richie who was now sitting in the middle of it, "I think it'll be fun Ed's," Richie smiled, putting his arm around him and pulling him close. "Don't call me Ed's.." he replied with a frown, this would usually be the part where Eddie would push Richie away but this time he didn't, which was a surprise to Richie as well.

"If your boyfriends going, you're going," Stanley said, right after he said that Bill walked up to him and pecked his lips randomly before going back to looking around the room, "when are we going?" Richie asked, he felt Eddie burying his face into the crook of his neck and his arms around his waist, but just ignored it, "tonight, so you should start packing soon," replied Ben, the rest of the losers started having their own conversations.

Richie tried to get off the bed to start packing but was stopped when Eddie wouldn't let him go, "stay Rich.." Eddie whispered as he hugged him, "I just need to pack Ed's i'm not going anywhere." Eddie still didn't let him go, for some reason he craved Richies touch more than anything right now, Richie smiled and pulled away from the hug before pressing a long kiss onto Eddies lips, he thought he would let him go after that but Eddie started deepening the kiss, slipping his tongue inside Richies mouth and pressing their lips harder together each time.

Beverly looked over at them for a brief second and giggled to herself, "geez Ed's," Richie said after their lips finally separated, "you must be really horny or something," he laughed, Eddie rolled his eyes and laid back down on the bed while watching Richie pack.

*time skip to later on in the day*

"Richie you do not need six cans of coke..!" Stanley argued as he watched Richie search through his own bag, "but what if I lose one! I need backups..!" he replied, pulling out more useless items just to put them back again, "you don't need those either!" Stanley yelled as both of them continued to argue. Eddie rolled his eyes watching them, all the losers were out the front of Richies house getting ready to leave, "Eddie? Does your mom know you're going camping..?" Mike asked with a concerned look on his face, "my mom would have an aneurysm if she knew where I was going, I just told her I was staying over at one of yours," he spoke quickly.

"You ready Ed's?" Richie asked, patting him on the back, Eddie nodded, "do you have your inhaler?"

"Yes Rich," he replied,

"Good because i'll probably need it after this big bike ride," Richie laughed, Eddie just shook his head in disappointment, trying to hide the small smile on his face, they all then got on their bikes and headed down to the camp site.

By the time they got there, it was already getting dark since the sun was setting. They all got off their bikes and started setting up their old cheap tents that they had gathered from their garages, "h-hey Stan could you come h-help me w-w-with this..?" Bill asked as he struggled to set up the tent, Stanley walked over to him and they both managed to get the tent up together, meanwhile, on the other hand, Richie and Eddie hadn't even started getting theirs up yet as they were too busy fighting over who was going to get which sleeping bag.

"I should have the bigger one..! I'm smaller which means i'll freeze easier!" Eddie complained, "exactly Ed's you're tiny, which means you'll actually fit into the smaller one," Richie replied, Eddie rolled his eyes, "it's not that small! You can fit into it too!"

After a while of fighting over it, Richie finally agreed to let Eddie have the big sleeping bag, "you're lucky we're not measuring dicks," Richie laughed as they both finally started setting up the tent. Meanwhile, the rest of the losers were busy starting a campfire so that they wouldn't freeze to death, "I'll never understand those two," Beverly began, "one minute they're making out and cuddling each other like there's no tomorrow and the next they're fighting over some stupid little thing,"

"I told you they're idiots," Stanley said as he sat down on a log next to the campfire, "I think it's cute," Beverly replied, sitting down too. By the time Richie and Eddie were done setting up their tent, all of the losers were already sitting around the campfire waiting for them, "took you long enough," Stanley said, rolling his eyes as he watched Richie sit down, Eddie sitting on his lap immediately after, "miss me Stan?" Richie huffed before wrapping his arms around Eddies stomach.

"A-are you guys l-l-looking forward to go-going back to s-s-s-sch-sch—" Bill sighed, stopping himself from even trying to get the word out, Stanley put his arm around him and hugged him close, trying to comfort him, "school?" Ben asked, Bill nodded his head, "hell no, that place is full of bullies and people who have egos bigger than my dick," Richie complained, "yeah I agree with Richie, I'm not looking forward to going back either," Beverly sighed.

"I mean.. at least it's better than being homeschooled, ever since my dad let me start going to school with you guys it's been way better," Mike said, bringing out a collection of 'yeah's from the group, Richie could feel Eddie start to tense up in his lap, "what's wrong Eddie..?" he asked, Eddie let out a shaky sigh, "w-what about Bowers..?" the whole group went silent, looking around at each other. "A-as long as we s-s-stick together we'll be f-f-fine," Bill reassured everyone, "yeah baby, I won't let anyone touch you.." Richie said softly before placing a few kisses onto Eddies cheek, causing him to smile.

"It's so cold.." Stanley said, cuddling into Bill, "yeah it's freezing.. I don't know how we'll survive tonight," Beverly added, Ben then took his jacket off and wrapped it around her, she gave him a small smile as to say 'thanks'. "My hands are cold.." Eddie shivered, a white cloud of air coming out his mouth as he spoke, Richie intertwined their hands and laid his head on Eddies shoulder, their cheeks brushing together,

"my lips are cold too.." Eddie giggled, which caused the whole group to laugh,

"are they now?" Richie smirked, turning Eddies head towards him with his finger before pressing their lips together. "Ahem," Stanley coughed, causing Eddie to break the kiss, Richie rolled his eyes in annoyance and just buried his face into the crook of his boyfriends neck, whilst the rest of the losers club continued to talk.
