A wholesome chapter fo today:)

--

It had been a long day at school and Richie invited Eddie over after to help him "study" for a test. Of course Eddie had intentions on actually helping him, he was still very confused about it. Though Richie seemed dumb he was actually very smart and usually aced most of his tests. Richie's actual plan was just to gain some quality time with Eddie, with a quality excuse for him to tell his mom. Most the time when Eddie made up excuses he stuttered a lot over the phone and ended up hanging up quickly which just made his mom mad once he got home. 

Once they arrived at Richie's house he made sure his mom was still at work by checking every room in the house. Mean while Eddie made himself comfortable in Richie's room.

"We're in the clear Spaghetti." Richie announced and flopped down on his bed, resting his head on Eddie's lap.

"You didn't invite me here to study, did you?" Eddie tried to sound annoyed even though he wasn't. 

"Mmmm perhaps?" A sly grin growing across his face.

"Ugh Rich we talked about this." Eddie lightly smacked Richie atop his head. 

"What! I know you don't want to keep lying to your mom but it's the only way for us to get some alone time together." Richie sighed and intertwined their hands "If you want this to be the last time then I promise I won't do it again." 

Eddie sighed and finally let the smile he'd been holding back overcome his face. 
"No I don't want it to be the last time, just tell me before you make me lie to my mom again."

"But every time I do you make it sound sO obvious that you're lying."

"Fuck off and cuddle me. Please." Eddie politely demanded and held out his arms. 

"Fine I guess." Richie just laughed at the gesture and pulled Eddie into his arms. Over the coarse of their relationship Richie had learned that Eddie loved physical attention. Anytime he had the chance or touch cuddle with Richie he would take it. 

They lay there on Richie's bed for a while just quietly talking about their lives and what they want to do in the future. Richie had his hand running through Eddie's hair as he told a somewhat interesting story about some disease he thought he had caught from the boys bathroom. 

Halfway through his explanation Eddie soon realized Richie had fallen asleep and a smug smile fell upon his face. He gently removed Richie's glasses from his face and untangled their legs. Once he had gotten free from his grip he straddled his waist and leaned his elbows on Richie's chest.

"Richie."

"Rich"

"Chee"

"Richard."

"Babe!"

Richie opened his eyes squinting from his loss of glasses, he lifted his head up to see Eddie staring down at him.
"What Eds? This better be good, I was having a good dream."

"The record stopped."

Richie dropped his head back into his pillow sighing. Eddie grabbed Richie's face in his hands and gave him a soft kiss. 

"Man, you're almost as good a kisser as you're mom." 

Eddie's smile dropped. "Fuck you, no more kisses."

"No no Eddie I'm sorry I'm sorryyyyy." Richie pleaded, emphasizing the y and grabbing for Eddie's arm.

 "Fine." Eddie muttered before letting Richie up to flip the record they had playing. 

Richie started to do a little dance as one of his favorite songs started to play. Eddie watched from the bed, still trying to look mad from Richie's previous comment.

"Eds, come dance with me!" Richie grabbed his arms and attemted to drag him off the bed.

"No. No way." Eddie went limp, trying to be as difficult as he could. 

"C'mon dance with me, baby!" Richie asked softly "Please?"

Eddie sighed and finally stood up next to the taller curly headed boy. 

"I don't even know how to dance so there's no point." Eddie tried to emphasize his point but Richie just ignored him.

"Just move to the beat," Richie said guided him to the song. Eddie started to smile as Richie helped him sway to the beat. Soon they were goofily dancing around Richie's room while singing as loud as they could. Neither of them cared if they were good or not, all that mattered was that they were having fun. After a few songs they were out of breath so they had to take a break and lay on Richie's bed.

"Chee?"

"Hm?" Richie hummed as his fingers lazily twirled Eddie's hair around his fingers.

"I really like you."

Richie smiled widely at the comment "I have a deep regard for you too Edward."

"Oh fuck you." Eddie laughed adjusting his body so he could Richie in the face. 

"Is that a statement Eds or a to-do list." Richie smirked wiggling his eyebrows. Eddie blushed furiously and grabbed one of Richie's pillows to smack him in the face.

Richie braced himself as Eddie landed a sharp thwack against his head. 

"Beep Beep." Was all Eddie managed to say before Richie tackled him again, planting soft kisses all across his soft face. 

"Richie what are you doing?" Eddie questioned, scrunching up his face in response. 

"What's the point in having a gorgeous boyfriend if you don't get to kiss him?" Richie planted one final kiss on Eddie's lips before pulling away. 

"Well then why did you stop?" Eddie asked sweetly before connecting their lips again. Richie slowly deepened the kiss, gently slipping one of his hands up Eddie's shirt. Eddie gasped and pulled away. 

"What is it?" Richie asked quickly retracting his hand.

"I just-" Eddie paused letting his relax back on the pillow. "I'm just not ready for that yet."

"And that's ok Ed's." Richie kissed his forehead and gently rubbed his thumb over his cheek.

"Thanks Rich." Eddie smiled back, "C'mon" Eddie then dragged Richie downstairs to watch a movie. They decided on ET and then cuddled up on the couch, quicly falling asleep in each other's embrace.
