Life Begins Again

Richie and Will think they will never have their hearts beating fast again after their heartbreaks, until they enter the same university. Richie thinks he will never feel flowers in his body again after his romantic disappointment, until he sees William's soft hair. Will believes he will never feel his head exploding again after his rejection, until he sees Richard's freckles.

It's late fall of 1991 in New York, and the dry leaves tell Richie's heart to call his not-so-secret crush out for dinner, dancing, talking, and some avalanches.

This is inspired by that scene in the epilogue of Stranger Things, where Will goes to a nightclub with a guy. But it's much more detailed, contextualized, passionate, and it's not just any guy, it's Richie Tozier. Sorry for any mistakes, English is not my native language.
