A/N: Can you see the new cover? Here it's not updated... Gonna fix this later.

Richie couldn't focus on nothing else but Eddie, he was there, sitting, waiting for him to come. Some of the Losers were with him, Bill and Stan were dancing.

"He'll show up, Richie, trust me."

"She's right, man, just be patient." Ben said, patting Richie's shoulder.

"I don't know guys, what if he saw the letter and just... ripped it? He may have found it funny or creepy, Gosh... I am..." He says, looking at the door.

Richie's jaw landed on the floor, his heart beated faster, he trembled, face went red, and his eyes? They could only behold the most wonderful masterpiece in a shape of person in the world... Edward Kaspbrak... Eddie.

"Richie, are you okay?" Mike said.

Richie was astonished, could not say a word.

Eddie saw the fool who was hypnotized by him, he recognized the fool, it was Eddie's fool. He smiled, and that made Richie's eyes create tears, tears of joy, tears of love, Richie was in love.

Eddie walked to Richie (detail: this "walk" happened in seconds, but for Richie, it happened for ages, he never saw such beautiful thing before.), and hugged him, making him come back to normal.

Richie hugged Eddie back. "I... y-you..."

"Shh..." Eddie murmured. "I wasted my whole day trying to put this and not look weird, so be gentle."

"You look so gorgeous..." Richie said.

"Oh... uhm..." Eddie's face turned red, just like a tomato. "T-thank you."

"I... shit, I don't know even what to say, I'm just... Wow..."

Eddie "flinched", shy. "Stop it..."

"Aww..." Richie hugged Eddie tightly. "I'm just reassuring you that you're handsome, don't say you're weird, you're not weird, I am weird."

"I know..."

They both sit down, and talked a lot, nervously, because it was practically their first "formal" date.

But then, the dance floor got more romantic and slower. Eddie couldn't stop looking at it, and swinging slowly with the music. Richie noticed that.

He got up, got closer to Eddie, and held out his hand to him. "Wanna come dance with me?"

Eddie looked at the place, and nodded shyly.

They got on the dance floor, and synchronously, a new song started playing (Lady Antebellum - Need You Now).

When the chorus came on, they looked each other, both faces were red.

"Alright... I'm coming in..." Richie thought. He took the courage, and approached his face on Eddie's. He pressed his lips on his, and kissed him, Eddie kissed back, hugging him. "Oh baby, I need you noooooooooow..." And the song ended, as their long, romantic kiss.

Eddie smiled, and nuzzled on Richie's chest, making Richie rest his head on Eddie's soft, brown hair.

"I love you..." Eddie murmured.

"I love you too, a lot..." Richie said.

A few minutes later.

(Lord Huron - The Night We Met)

"Oh take me back, to the night we met..."

Richie were sitting on a table, and Eddie was on his lap, resting his head on Richie's shoulder. "Richie..." He said.

"Talk."

"If you went back to the night we met, would you change something?"

Richie looked at Eddie and smiled. "Another smart and philosophical question by my Eddie..."

"Was that sarcasm?"

"Of course not, honey."

Eddie giggled. "Okay... Now answer... Would you change something?"

Richie kissed Eddie's forehead. "Of course not... I'm so lucky to have met you... How could I change this?"

This made Eddie's eyes cry. "I love you so much... Heaven knows how much I love you, Chee..."

Richie hugged Eddie tightly. "I love you too, my Eddie Spaghetti... And I'll always do."j
