The sleepover morning was a usual like any other sleepover that the losers have. They all woke up at around 11-12. They relaxed there for a while until they started to leave and Richie left last, Bev didn't leave as she was going to be with Bill all day to catch up. Richie was now sat at home alone at..

~5:00pm~

He had gotten home and went straight to his bed for a rest because of the lack of sleep he and from last night. He woke up a while ago and sat in his bed alone in silence, he was mainly crying but deep in his thoughts, he knew Laura and thought she was really fucking hot but he just wasn't sure that a hot girl was gonna make him forgot about Eddie. He decided to text the groupchat to stop the loneliness that he was feeling.

Richie's doorbell went off and Richie instantly jumped off his bed and ran downstairs. He noticed his mom asleep on the sofa, still a mess as usual. He rolled his eyes and opened the door to see Eddie standing innocently at the doorstep. "Hey Rich. I brought over a few choices of things to wear."
"Why a few different ones eds?"
"Eddie," the boy corrected. "And because i don't know which one is best, i wanna look good tonight." Why can't he just realise he looks good all the fucking time? Richie thought as he let the boy inside. "Well, you came to the right place. Richie Tozier at your service," he said while bowing down. Eddie let out a giggle and they they both ran up to Richie's room. "Sooo, let me see your choices," Richie said as they both sat down on his bed. Eddie pulled out some clothes from the bag and laid them all out. He had three tops (one light blue t-shirt, one dark blue top which had a couple buttons at the top and a dark green t-shirt). They would all look nice, Richie thought as he was looking at each top over and over again. "i thinkkkk.. the light blue one. It will suit you."
"Okay and which pair of bottoms?" The boy pulled out some dark blue jeans, some normal black jeans and a pair of shorts. "No no no! I've got the perfect pair of shorts that will go with that light blue top," Richie suggested as he ran over to his wardrope. He pulled out a pair of shorts that Richie always wore, Eddie quite liked what they looked like together after trying them on. "Sooo, what are you gonna wear?" Eddie asked while sorting out his hair.
"Oh. Just this," he replied.
"Huh?" Richie was wearing normal shorts and a freeser top but he didn't think of this date as a time to dress up fully. "I don't know."
"Alright then, we gotta get going soon though. I would hate to be late." The two boys finished getting ready and walked to the cinema. It wasn't far and they arrived a little earlier than the girls so they decided to buy the popcorn, drinks and tickets.

~9:27pm~

The girls had arrived after Eddie and Richie brought all the stuff, they were all now sat in their seats waiting for the adverts to finish. They were near the back of the cinema room, Richie and Laura were sat two rows behind Eddie and Mary. It started off awkward for Eddie and Mary but Richie was never awkward. He was having a great conversation with Laura before the actual movie started.

~9:58pm~

So, it was in the middle of the movie. Eddie and Mary has gotten comfortable with each other and were giggling now and then whenever their hands touched when they were grabbing popcorn. However, Richie and Laura were making out since the movie started, his hand was placed on her cheek and one of her hands were resting on his upper thigh. Although Richie showed full interest and attention onto their make out session, he still didn't want to be there. He felt dizzy and couldn't stop imagining if he was actually kissing Eddie there instead of Laura. Stop Tozier! stop fucking thinking about Eddie! Richie's thoughts just kept running and running through his mind until he pulled away quick. He was sweating, his breathes were heavy. "Are you okay?" she asked. Richie had been spending ages trying to act like he wanted to be there but, he couldn't anymore. He ignored her question and got up out of his seat. He headed straight to the toilets to cool down. Keep it together Tozier. Fuck! There's no way i will be able to go back in there, he said to himself. He was leaning against the wall with his face in his palm, he stayed like that for about a couple minutes before he heard the door swing open. "Richie?" came the person. It was Eddie! The small boy walked into the toilets and noticed Richie with tears running down his cheeks, he was sweating so fucking much. "Shit Rich, what happened with Laura?"
"N-nothing."
"Are you sure? I saw you run out of the theatre. I asked Laura what happened and you seemed out of it apparently." Richie stayed quiet as he was still leaning up against the wall while looking down at his feet. Eddie walked in front of Richie and gave him a tight hug. "Rich, you can talk to me," Eddie quietly said while they were still in a hug. Fuck! He's not making this fucking easy for me, is he? I can't help myself! While the hug was still happening, Richie instantly held onto Eddie's shoulders and pushed him away to break the hug. Then, Richie leaned in and aggressively kissed the small boy on the lips, his hands were both holding onto the side of Eddie's cheeks while Eddie's hands were just dangling from his shoulders. Eddie didn't know why but, he was kissing back? Why the fuck was he kissed back? The two boys were standing still while kissing each other and the kiss was slowly getting deeper and deeper. Eddie could feel Richie's tongue slide through past his lips and inside his throat. Eddie felt like he should stop kissing back and just pull away, but he didn't. He noticed the two of them slowly walking towards a toilet cubical. They were inside a toilet cubical and Eddie slammed the door shut with his foot behind him. Richie was now sitting on a toilet (with the seat up) and Eddie sat himself on Richie's lap. The kiss was still getting deeper and deeper and lasted for about 15-20 minutes. The small boy was sat on Richie's lap while Richie's hands were still placed on his both sides of his cheeks. Eddie's arms were wrapped around Richie's neck. The kiss felt like it never ended until Eddie finally pulled back. The small, innocent boy's thoughts were gone throughout the whole time they were kissing and didn't even realise who and what he was doing! It felt right but Eddie thought he was straight, he knew he was straight. Did he? Eddie was so caught up in his mind, so confused. The two boys were in silence once Eddie pulled away, his cheeks were red, his fingers were messing awkwardly with his short's material. However, Richie was sitting still on the toilet seat with his hair all messed up, his palms and forehead sweaty and his body frozen. Eddie seemed fine to Richie until the boy broke down in tears. Holy fuck, Richie thought. "Eds.. Are you o-"
"No i'm not fucking okay!" yelled Eddie, his anger and confusion took over. "Why the fuck did you do that?!"
"I-" Richie's words were stopped by Eddie crying so loud and emotionally. Richie gulped, his words got stuck in his mouth. He had no fucking clue what to say. Before Richie had the chance to get his words out and explain himself, Eddie aggressively opened the cubical door and ran out the toilets while struggling to get out his inhaler. Fuck you Tozier, why do you have to be so gay? Richie was left sitting on the toilet seat with only his thoughts and his regret. Oh, and the tears that were forming in his eyes behind his glasses..
