Eddie didn't say a word as he walked down the stair, he couldn't look in the direction he knew the boy was sitting in.

"Eds, was that a nice shower?..aw, you look cute." He grinned nudging the boy laughing, Eddie shrugged looking at Beverly who has sat down after finishing the boy's hair. "You look good as an...ombre ginger."

Richie nodded quickly. "Mhmm!" Eddie groaned. "Ok so...now what?" Richie answered. "Well, I had to talk to the devil himself, and he said he'd come over after school finished...he apparently has a lot of document shit. Mikes working on my car now so...after Connor finishes up with the stuff I'll come to get you and yeah..."

Eddie questioned. "What time?" Richie shrugged. "Probably like...one? You fine to stay away?" Eddie nodded. "Mhmm...I'll try." Richie laughed, leaning closer. "Try?" Eddie groaned. "Mum has me on a strict bedtime...I'll try and stay awake, ok?" 

Richie nodded slowly grabbing the boys hand, Eddie jumped at the touch caught off guard. "You don't have to come, I'll be safe.-" "I'm coming with you. End of story." Beverly fake coughed. "Still here homos." The two jumped as Richie let go of the boy's soft hand. "Just, pack everything you can...ok?" Eddie nodded placing his finger in between his teeth slowly chewing lightly. "I will..."

It was nearing six o'clock, and the boys had everything. Surprisingly, Connor was good at that shit. Even made birth certificates. Richie muttered looking down at his new driver's license. "Thanks, really." Connor sighed grabbing the boys hand. "It was my fault...when are you uh, leaving?" 

Richie answered letting it sink in, he was finally leaving. "Tonight, Mike has my car," Connor whispered, slowly leaning in dragging out his words to try and make something happen to the boy. "Maybe we could..."

He raised his hands pushing lightly on the boy's chest. "No thanks," Eddie fake coughed placing his birth certificate in his pocket along with his ID. "I'm gonna get going...I'll see you tonight." Richie nodded quickly. "I'll walk you out, pack as much as you can...ok?" Eddie hummed opening the front door. "Turn your lights off when you get near my house...you'll wake up my mum." 

Richie laughed. "Alright, be waiting out your porch by one, if you're not there I'll just...leave your window unlocked."
