the quarry/chpter 1

october 17th
Eddies POV
Bill told all of the losers to meet at the quarry today which i was really secretly excited about because i get to see my secret lover..richie.... Idk abt lover but i really like him.we've been best friends since the beginning of 2nd grade, we've always been there for each other and cared even though we might not show it. I just never really wanted to admit that i eddie kasprack had feelings for the richie tozier. I also didn't want to mess anything up with our relationship so I've never told anyone especially not richie.
My mom was sleeping on the chair with the tv on so i just wrote her a note saying that i was meeting up with bill and stan to finish a project and go to school with them the next day. So i packed my clothes for school and 1 fanny pack and left the house with my tiny body quietly slipping through the door.
Richie POV
As soon as i got the phone call about the quarry and immediately almost to fast asked if eddie was going. You could hear bill smirk over the phone and he cooed "yea why..do you like him"? "No, okay he's my bestfriend. damn chill out just cause you and stan are over there swapping spit doesn't mean i am. Plus im not gay okay." I said. "Damn okay haha. See you in a little bit" Bill said. "K bye" i said. As soon as i got off the phone i rushed to the quarry knowing that eddie would already be there cause he's on time to everything. Is it bad that i have feelings for a boy? What would his mom think of it? Is eddie homophobic? Honestly i was contemplating the whole thing way to much.
Eddie's POV

as soon as i left the house i saw richie sitting by the water. I thought to myself...richie? Early? So i quietly placed my bike by his and krept behind him. He was sitting there tracing the lines of his hands with his finger. Then, i crawled and crawled and jumped in front of him and screamed. He jumped at the sound of my voice and he screamed for a split second. "Jeez eds your gonna give me a fucking heart attack if you keep that up" he laughed. "Wow. Your pretty early for once. Why? Is it cause of your psycho dad" i chuckled. Richie smiled and said "ha no i was just bored as fuck. But thank god my dad wasn't home, i would've probably gotten killed". My smiled turned to a frown and richie noticed it. "Both of our lives fuckin suck. I have an abusive mom whos over protective and gives me pills i don't fuckin need, and you have two abusive parents who aren't ever around to protect you" i sighed. Richie pulled me in for a warm supportive hug and i hugged back. I felt so safe in his arms. I never wanted to let go. I looked up at his tall figure and examined his perfect lips, his bright shiny dark hair, his soft baby smooth skin, ugh i could kiss him right there, i could stare at him all day, i could feel safe just at the touch of his finger. He stared at me too for the same amount of time looking down at me with his big brown eyes. Soon after we pulled away. "Hey eds." I looked at him and replied with looking at making a hm sound. "with all this stress, you could really go for a cigarette right now" he smiled and i looked at him grossed out. "First of all those things are super bad for your lungs and we could get caught an- i got cut off by richie saying" just one won't do any harm". It was do hard to say no to those big heavy sorrow eyes. "What if the losers come"? I said trying to come up with another word to say no. "Psh were a half an hour early. Pleasee just this once." He pleaded. I thought about it and said to myself, maybe richie will think im cool. Yeah i know peer pressures not supposed to get to me but I've always wanted to try a cigarette. So. Yolo. "Fine". I said sounding annoyed even though i was kind of excited. Richie smiled and grabbed the box and lighter out if his pocket he lit one for himself and showed me how to use it. He then breathed in deeply and took a big sigh and laughing after because of the constipated look i was making on my face that i didn't even realize i was doing. Then he handed me the cigarette and i held it not really knowing what to do so he came from behind me wrapping his arms around my shoulders and held the cigarette in front of my face. "Okay, now breathe in" he said in his calm soothing voice and i did as he said. As soon as i breathed in the disguised cancer i felt my tense body die down a bit and breathed out. "Wow eds good job for the first time" he laughed and i just laughed super hard. "What"? He said clueless as to why i was laughing so hard. "Thats what she said" i said and the both of us laughed. "Wooow usually im the one saying shit like that" richie said. Richie then burned out the cigarette with his shoe and threw it to god knows where. After that we sat on the rocks by the water for 20 minutes until all the losers finally showed up. "Heyy guys the whole crew is back and reunited" richie exclaimed. "We literally just saw each other two days ago" stan said doing his classic eyeroll. "Well i say two days TO LONG" richie practically shouted. Everyone laughed and threw there bikes on the ground and all sat in a circle.
