RICHIES POV
we walked into my house. it was empty, per usual. eddie grabbed my hand from behind and i led him upstairs to my room. i sit on my bed and eddie crawls into my lap. i press my lips against his and he kisses me back. his arms travel around my neck and i place mine on his back. he pulls apart from me, keeping his hands on my neck, and looking me in the eyes, smiling.
"God trashmouth, you don't know how bad i've wanted this" he kisses me again, this time more aggressively.
"i could say the same eds" i look at his bruised lips then back at his eyes. i go for his neck, kissing the skin gently but enough to give him a hickey. i move closer to his collar bone. he plays with my hair while i'm doing this.
"richie? eddie?" bevs voice rang from downstairs. i heard more footsteps come up the stairs. eddie jumps off me and runs to the bathroom, glancing at his neck in the mirror. bright red and purple spots appear all over his neck and lips. i check my lips. mine are purple too.
"fuck what do we do?" he walks out to my room and sits on the floor, acting as if we were just hanging out. i bolt you my mothers room, grabbing her concealer, and putting it on my lips as i run back to my room. i smother it over his lips and neck and chuck it across the room as the losers bust in.
"we knew it! you guys blew us off to hang with each other!" bev laughs and sits on my bed.
"that's not true! richie asked me if i wanted to sleepover to make sure he didn't die in the middle of the night! fuck you guys!" eddie exclaims.
"whatevs. mind if we hang here too? we missed you rich" bev smiles. i nod and everyone sits around me and eddie. we play a few rounds of truth or dare before i grab a water bottle off my desk and press it to my lips. i wipe my lips, revealing the purple around them.
"shit richie, did eddie punch you or something? your lips are purple" the losers turn their attention to my lips. they stare in awe, knowing what had happened.
"it's a bruise from bowers you idiots! it was hard to see in the dim light of the hospital! eddie wouldn't punch me for shit, right eds" i punch him in the arm playfully and he smiles at me in relief.
by 1:00 am, everyone was asleep. everyone but eddie and i. we were still watching the movie, holding hands under the blanket. eddie turns to look at me.
"rich, everyones asleep. kiss me" i smile and kiss him. he crawls onto my lap and kisses me more aggressively. that'll leave a mark i thought to myself.
we pull apart after minutes of kissing, breathing heavily.
"i've never wanted anything more in my life eddie spaghetti" i brush the hair out of his face and kiss him again. he scooches in closer on my lap, our chests touching. he pulls at my hair, kissing me more and more aggressively. i kiss him back harder. he travels down to my neck, kissing it. i smile as he does this.
i really have never wanted anything more.
never
i play with his chestnut brown curls. i look around the room to see if anyone's looking. everyone's still asleep.
"i'm surprised they haven't heard you sucking my face" i laugh. i hear eddie laugh, but he continues kissing my neck.
he moves back up to my lips. i melt. he's so perfect. it was perfect. this was perfect.
i woke up at 7:02 am. eddie was asleep on my chest, his legs and arms wrapped around mine. i shake him until his eyes open.
"eddie! they're gonna catch us if you don't get up right now." he nods and slowly gets up, plopping down next to me. his eyes shut immediately and he drifts off to sleep. i stare at his face. it's perfectly shaped. his nose is small enough to fit his face but big enough to fit the freckles that go across it. his lips are small but soft and plump. his eyes are round and full of life. his hair is the perfect amount of curly and straight. hes perfect.
"richie? why are you awake so early? and what's all over your neck" bev rubs her eyes and gets closer to my neck, looking at it.
"errr..... uhh it's nothing your probably just seeing spots since your rubbing your eyes so much. uh i gotta pee" i jump up and run to my bathroom. i slam the door shut and peak at myself in the mirror.
"damn eddie those are some hickeys. geez" i say to myself. i go pee and grab the concealer bottle i chucked last night off the floor. i unscrew the cap and apply it to my neck, rubbing it all over.
knock
knock
knock
"richie it's me, eddie. let me in" i open the door and he slides in, closing it behind him.
"holy shit! concealer isn't gonna work dingbat, they're too dark. fuck what do we do now?" eddie sits himself on the counter. i walk over to him, standing between his legs.
"i heard kissing heals hickeys" i smirk at him.
"oh yeah? who'd you hear that from, a 5 year old?" he rolls his eyes.
"just shut up and kiss me" i press my lips against his and hold onto his back. he pulls himself closer to me and wraps his arms around my neck.
"richie, they're gonna know!" he says as he pulls away. i give him continuous small kisses on his neck.
"we'll be fine" i keep kissing his neck.
"i'm serious rich, i'm not ready to tell them yet, never mind get ourselves caught!" i lift my head up to look at him, the tip of my nose touching his.
"i love you, you know that?" i smile. he gives me a bigger one.
"i love you too richie. now let's go before they catch us. he hops down from the counter and leaves the bathroom. i just stand there, starstruck, that the love of my life since 5th grade, just told me he loved me.
