detention

nothing nsfw happens in this but they're seniors just for my comfort

Eddie had never gotten detention before, he didn't even do anything wrong to get this one. He'd just been missing homework assignments. He walked into the room slowly, his heart pounding in his chest, sweat soaking his hands which he hurriedly wiped on his shorts. This wasn't him, he never got in trouble at school. It was no surprise to him that Richie Tozier was sitting in the back of the classroom, throwing spitballs. There was only two seats left, one in front of the teacher and the one next to Richie. He sighed, taking the seat next to Richie and putting his bag on the desk.

"Eddie Kaspbrak?" Richie pretended to gasp and bow down at him. "To what do we juvenile delinquents owe the pleasure?"

"I have detention." Eddie said flatly, not looking at Richie. He didn't like to associate with people like Richie, who didn't care about school. Who didn't care about anything for that matter.

"You did something wrong? I'm impressed."

"I don't live to impress you."

Richie clicked his tongue and turned his chair to face Eddie. "Feisty today, is someone mad they got in trouble?" Richie cooed in a mocking baby voice and laughed at himself.

"I didn't get in trouble. I just forgot to do my homework." Eddie spat, turning to face him too. Neither of them had been this close before. Eddie noticed Richie had a splash of freckles across his nose and cheeks. Each one danced on his pale skin and high cheekbones. His eyes were nowhere near as magnified as they used to be, he'd just gotten new glasses. A few stray curls fell onto Richie's face, and the rest were pulled back in a half up half down man bun. Richie couldn't help but stare back, noticing the little blush covering Eddie's cheeks and the tips of his ears. Eddie had finally let his hair go untamed, his natural curls atop his head were a nice change from the way he used to gel it down. He was also much tanner than Richie had ever thought, as he had never had the pleasure of being this close. Richie had always thought Eddie was kind of cute, a crush from afar he'd had since they were in middle school. Eddie couldn't be bothered to think the same, but now that he was staring, so close, to Richie, he couldn't help but notice how cute the other boy was.

Eddie was in such a daze, taking in all of Richie's unique features, he realized too late Richie was saying something.

"I'm sorry, what?" Eddie said, snapping his gaze back up to meet Richie's. Richie laughed, and Eddie couldn't help but notice how his nose scrunched up and his curls shook as he laughed.

"I said you should probably work on that missing homework assignment instead of staring at my gorgeous face." Richie winked. Eddie cursed himself when his heart skipped a beat, and he knew a deep red blush was crawling up his neck. What was wrong with him today?

"Y-yeah, yeah I should." Eddie nodded and looked back down at his paper. Why the hell was he stuttering? He sounded like Bill. Richie's face broke out in a grin at how nervous he made the other boy.

After about 10 minutes of letting Eddie work in peace, Richie was bored again. "Hey Eds?"

"Don't call me that."Eddie said without looking up. Richie giggled and took Eddie's paper and pencil away from him.

"Hey!" Eddie protested and looked over at him. Richie was drawing on his paper. Eddie reached over and tried to grab it back, but Richie pushed his arm away and kept drawing.

"Give me back my paper! I need to turn that in!" Eddie whisper-yelled at him. Richie finished and kissed the paper proudly, handing it back to Eddie. Eddie looked down and that same damn blush came creeping back up his cheeks. On top of Eddie's paper, Richie had drawn a heart and inside had written R+E. Eddie forced himself to roll his eyes and ignore how fast his heart was racing, or the butterflies flying around his stomach. He was not letting Richie Tozier have this affect on him.

"You like it?" Richie asked, he had moved his chair closer to Eddie's and when he spoke, his warm breath was against Eddie's neck. He jumped slightly at the closeness, and he felt himself shudder at the feeling of Richie's breath on him. Eddie shook his head and shoved Richie away. Richie laughed and Eddie found himself enjoying that sound more and more. Richie slipped another piece of paper on Eddie's desk and then pushed his chair in, walking to the front. He talked with the teacher for a second, and then left the room with one last glance back to Eddie. Eddie unfolded the paper and bit his lip as he read it.

"meet me under the stairs"

Eddie waited for what felt like the longest minute of his life, then he got up quickly and made his way to the front of the room. He took the bathroom pass and signed out, his hands were so shaky he couldn't even read his own writing. He went out in the hall, and slowly went around and under the staircase. Richie was leaning against the wall, fixing his stupid hawaiian shirt and he turned around at the sound of Eddie's footsteps.

"Hey Eddie Spaghetti!" Richie grinned and walked over to Eddie. Every step caused Eddie's heart to speed up until Richie was right in front of him.

"That's even worse than 'Eds'. Why can't you just call me Eddie?" Eddie rolled his eyes, gaining his confidence back after his momentary shock and crossing his arms.

"How about we compromise, and I just call you mine?" Richie smirked, clearly proud of his line.

Eddie scoffed, but he couldn't look away from Richie. He was so close now, Eddie could count all his freckles. And then, he couldn't anymore. Richie had closed the gap completely and pressed his lips to Eddie's. Eddie felt the wall against his back, as Richie pressed him against it. Eddie kissed him back hesitantly, and as soon as Richie felt him do it he gained more confidence. He swiped his tongue across Eddie's bottom lip, and Eddie immediately allowed him access. Richie explored Eddie's mouth, his other arm wrapping securely around Eddie's waist and Eddie practically melted at his touch. Eddie felt Richie pull away and immediately missed the sensation of their lips moving together, but it was instantly replaced by a new one. Richie's lips had found Eddie's neck. Eddie gasped, and Richie moved his lips down his neck and sucked softly at Eddie's sensitive skin. Eddie's arms wrapped around the taller boy, and he leaned his head back against the wall.

Down the hall, the door to the detention room opened. "Tozier!" They heard the teacher call, looking for Richie who was a known flight risk and had been gone for too long.

Richie looked at Eddie, kissing him on the lips once more and then running off. "Sorry Mrs. G! Got lost on the way back." He yelled to the teacher, who just shook her head and took him back into the room.

Eddie was left against the wall, staring after Richie until he disappeared from sight. Eddie broke out into a huge grin, his face still hot and tinted pink. He had no idea what the fuck that was, but if that's what detention was usually like, he wouldn't mind having it again.
