Mostly everyone is words• 4,577
still in their prom outfits,
sure there's a pile of blazers
in the front yard but hey at least
there not that one guy in the tree naked.
yes, a classic Bill Denbrough party.
Parents are out of town as usual,
Georgie's with his grandma
and the After-dance party is in session.

Richie and Eddie arrived together at the thick of the party, couch on the lawn, kitchen littered with ping pong balls and red solo cups, the basement has a hazy smoke coming from beneath the door and the living room has turned into a club. They say hi to Mike and Bev who are sitting on the staircase sharing a joint and laughing to themselves, they point them to ben and Stan who are with Bills date playing beer pong. Eddie takes more than a few drinks and Richie watches in amazement as he downs them like water.

"you're not gonna drink?" Eddie asks sipping his third cup or unidentifiable party punch.

"i'm watching you sweetheart i gotta keep a clear head" he smirks at Eddie who giggles and shoulders him. he already seems too drunk for Richie to handle.

"have fun trying to keep up," Eddie teases as he grabs Stans hand and leads him to the dance floor

"oh no.." Stan sighs as soon as he realizes he's in the dance floor

"come on Stanny! dance wit me!" of course nobody can say no to Eddie so he dances sadly and makes Eddie laugh. Richie thinks that Stan is sober enough to watch Eds for a second while he finds some weed. then he has to find Bill, which is never easy at his own party.

As he's about to go into the Basement a hand pushes him back and he stumbles. he's about to cuss someone out till he sees it's scotty with a cut on his cheekbone.

"oh hey! i was just, uh... passing by, excuse me-" he tries to open the door but Scotty slams it shut.

"you think you can just get away with what you did?" he says in a deep voice

"yes"

"no, i'm gonna beat the shit out of you and then have my dad sue your entire bloodline" he threatens making Richie almost burst out laughing

"oh? your gonna cry to daddy?" he wipes away fake tears and pouts, "is he gonna beat me up for you too?"

Scott huffs and pushes Richie against the wall, gripping his collar tightly. the sound of his back slamming against the wall pulls some peoples attention and it quiets down.

"if i see you with my boyfriend one more time i'll kill you!" he yells, making even more people stare.

Richie gets nervous as he sees the eyes on him, "yeah?" he pushes Scotty off him, "Well i fucked him! that's right! i fucked, your boyfriend, in the back of my van, and hey! even while you two were on the phone, it was a threesome and you didn't even fucking know it...! AND i fucked your mom-what the fuck are you gonna do about it?"

everyone ooo's and he sees Stan and Eddie holding back tears of laughter at what he just said. but, it made Scotty storm off and leave so he could go find Bill. he goes into the basement as the crowd gets loud again.
