Love at First Dare // Stenbrough

Eight

Thank you barberscookie for the really funny comments. Thank you for actually reading and voting on this story 😂

*Before the Kiss*
Of course the two have to be somewhere. Did hey forget that they invited me? Probably? Stanley and the boy have hung out with the friend group multiple times, but never thought about becoming friends until this year.

"Uh guys?" He decides to whisper because they could easily be asleep. The bags sit against the wall. He decides walk through out the house. They aren't in the living room or kitchen, not Richies room either.

The boy has seen their Instagram post of the two gonna dye Richies hair. They're most likely in the bathroom.

Slowly he walk towards the room he believes they're in.

"I-I um..." The boy can hear the two talk. Richies voice sounding shocked, Stanley quiet and calm. "I'm sorry." "So am i." "For wha-"

The boy stops quickly, their lips connecting quickly. Richie smiles in between the kiss, making his heart stop pumping for a second. Eddies legs turn to jello.

He doesn't like Richie.

He doesn't like Richie.

Nope.

The two laugh as they make their way to the living room. Eddie sits on the couch nervously scrolling through his social media's and other things. "Hiya Eds." "Hey. Hi Stan." "How long have you been sitting here?" "A couple minutes maybe?" "Ah okay."

A sudden knock startles the three. "Open the fuck up." (Please tell me you get that reference. Idk where it's from, I think vine).

The three can hear the drunkness in Beverly's voice. "Bev? Why are you drunk?" "Why not spaghettio." Beverly giggles. Richie nudges Eddie. "I'm h-h-here too."

Bills stutter also gets worse when he's drunk. A lot worse when he's drunk.

(UNDERAGE DRINKING IS BAD. IM 13. NO MA'AM)

"We're not sure how much they've drunk already." Ben carries almost everyones stuff inside. "B-B-Beverly said we c-could stay h-here tonight." Stanley furrows his brows at the boy.

"I mean I guess that's fine with me." Richie never cares when people come over. "Hand me one." Beverly shimmies the book bag off. Handing Richie a drink, one he loves.

"Richie underage drinking is bad."

(I GOT A FAKE ID THO. Sorry back to the story)

"Eddie I've drank my whole life. Don't worry about me." The words he's spoke came out harsh, harsher than he expected. Bill grabs Eddie. "Don't b-b-be around him w-wh-when he drinks o-okay?" He quickly nods his head yes.

Eddie can smell the odor of alcohol of Bills breath, a smell he hates with a burning passion. A smell that brings back memories he doesn't have.

One drink in. Richie becomes touchy towards everyone. Stanley only decides to drink one. The smallest boy sits in between the two.

Ben and Mike can sense the uncomfortableness. "Hey um....let's play a game?" "Lets play seven minutes in heaven!" Richie throws his arm son the arm, already having about his fifth drink. Stanley decides to drink more.
