The Day I Met Him (Reddie love story)

lover boy

Richie was sat impaciently at his desk, a red headed girl sat besides him and watched as he bit his pencil.
"Richie" she said cautiously he turned his head getting knocked out of his daze
He hummed "talk to me" she put a supportive hand on his arm. He sighed "Eddie" he managed to mumble out. "What about him?" Richie looked down at his chewed pencil. "He is more then beautiful and i cannot help but stare"
Beverly laughed. "Tell him how you feel" he shook his head. "Never ever in my life"

------------------

The show that night was awfully tiring, though they did reel in quite a bit more people then the usual.

The whole gang joined this time and they all agreed to have a sleepover at bills house tonight.

Though as they rode there bikes to bills house richie couldnt help but shoot glances at eddie.

One time he looked back from eddie to see beverly giving him the 'you idiot" look.

Sure, he was beautiful. An angel in Richie eyes. He had fallen so far for this boy in only the month its crazy.

Richie, sure dated around with girls. He never enjoyed it and he most definitely didnt feel like how he was just looking at the small brunette.

"My p-parents arnt h-home right now so we c-can sleep i-in the living room" bill managed to stutter out as they all threw there bags and or gituar cases.

"Nice house billiam" richie wrapped his arm around bills shoulder. Bill grabbed his hand and pushed it off.

"Wanna play monopoly?" Bill pulled the dusty board game from the shelve and they all sat in an akward circle.

"Pay up stanley!" Richie huffed, he was quite the sore loser. "Calm down richie" eddie giggled softly, they were sitting right next to eachother. Beverlys choice.

Richie, of course didnt mind it. Ritchie turned to eddie. "Eds- I tis not the one that must calm down"

He took a pause " this, sir. Jew must calm down" he said in a weird accent making eddie roll his eyes, but then giving richie a sweet smile that made his heart thump out of his chest.

"Alright either get a room, or roll the dice" richie put his hand to his lips. "A room you say eh? Well if your offering we might as well accept-" eddie hit Richie on the back of the head.

"Just roll the dice" richie mumbled something in return rubbing the place eddie had struck.

Later that night they decided on watching a movie, mean girls, Richie and eddie were on the small couch and mime was on the recliner. The rest lazaly spread on the floor.

As the movie pregrest, Richie would stare at the boy as his eyes were so fixated on the movie. His eyes went down as he saw his hand set on his thigh.

Richie had a very large temptation to hold his hand but what if it wemt wrong? He can always play it off as a joke right?

Ruchie reached out his hand slowly and softly intertwining there fingers like earlier.

Eddie didnt respond for a moment making richie worry, but eddie began to hold his hand in return, a soft smile placed on his face.
Richie focus went back on the movie.

Eddie laid his head softly on Richie shoulder caising the boy to smile and lay his head on top of his. They fell asleep like this, before they even finished the movie.
