    Summary

    "Maggie stretches her arm further, hoping she has got the worst of it, when her fingertips came in contact with a sleek-feeling stack of paper, and immediately recognizes it to be a magazine. Praying that it wasn’t some Playboy or some other vulgar nudie, she slowly pulls it out, her curiosity overcoming her knowledge that she should allow her son some privacy.

    She lets out a sigh of relief when she read the title. It was just some Sports Illustrated magazine, but instead of the swimsuit edition, it was just the most recent college baseball edition. Maggie huffs a laugh, eyebrows raised. She had no idea Richie was interested in baseball, why hadn’t he said anything?"

    Maggie finds a copy of Sports Illustrated under Richie's bed while cleaning, and brings it up at dinner that night.

    Summary

    Eddie looks determined.

    “I don’t know who I am. I thought you might be able to help me,” he holds up the jacket and Richie’s heart stops. “Are you Richie Tozier?”

    It’s probably the scotch at 2pm, or maybe that he skipped his usual Captain Crunch break in favor of a morning cry session because it is Thursday after all, or maybe that the love of his life is back from the dead and doesn’t know who he is, but Richie doesn’t have time to figure out exactly what makes him feel so lightheaded before his body gives up and pitches head-first into the hallway floor.

    Summary

    // you're the only friend I need
    sharing beds like little kids
    laughing 'til our ribs get tough
    but that will never be enough //
    ---
    Almost every time the lights turn off and they cram in the shitty twin bed, Richie seems to become a different person. Maybe not different, per say, but the stupid jokes and teasing die down, the guard of nonchalance dropping. Eddie feels lucky to see this side of Richie, soft and caring—vulnerable. It’s not like he hates the other side of Richie, he secretly enjoys their constant banter and his dumb jokes. No, it’s that this side is rare, and it’s something beautiful. Here, safe in the soft flannel sheets, it feels like they are the only two souls for miles, and they can be themselves, and that is terrifying and reassuring all at once.
    “I’m gonna miss this. When we go off to college,” Richie admits, the weight behind his words telling Eddie he felt the same about their shared nights.
    “Yeah,” Eddie agrees softly, “me too.”

    Summary

    On the last day of summer, Richie goes to the clubhouse on his lonesome, only to find Eddie already there and in the most coveted spot-- the hammock. What was supposed to be a simple afternoon changes course as they process the events of their summer, providing comfort for one another, leading to Richie realizing something about himself, and how he feels for Eddie.
    ---
    They return to their individual activities, but Richie can’t get past the first few pages of his comic. He can’t focus, not with how close they are. Their bare legs are brushed against one another, and Eddie’s leaning his head against Richie’s shin as he writes, jutting his tongue out as he erases something. The touch, the way he looks, it’s overwhelming. It’s overwhelming that he’s alive, that they’re both still here, together, after everything.

    There’s a heatwave in L.A., the first time Richie sees Eddie naked.

    Summary

    And Richie’s in love, in love, in love, now that it’s all about to end more than ever.
    He spends the next three days thinking how easy it would have been to lean down and kiss Eddie’s bloodied mouth – because, to be fair, that doesn’t sound any worse a promise than slicing your hand on a broken bottle to swear that if, when, needed he’ll be back to do it all over again.

    Or: five times Richie almost kisses Eddie and one time Eddie takes matters into his own hands.

    Summary

    Their eyes meet for a moment, but Eddie looks away quickly. He’s still kinda mad at Richie for taking his fanny pack, and for convincing him to play this stupid game, and for bringing him to this party in the first place, and also for looking unfairly good in his tacky neon patterned sweater, fanny pack, and ripped jeans.

    What an asshole.

     In which two idiots play Spin the Bottle and it goes exactly as you'd expect.

    Summary

    Richie coaxes the other Losers into a game of Spin the Bottle. It backfires on him spectacularly, forcing him to confront Feelings which have gone unspoken and largely unacknowledged even in his private thoughts, but it has interesting side effects on his and Stan's friendship. Whatever the results, Richie will go to his grave swearing it's all Bev's fault.

    Summary

    "What's the 'V' stand for?" Richie asks absently.

    "What do you think it stands for?" He snaps back, "I know you’ve been called this enough to addle your brain, but loser isn’t actually a compliment.”

    "Aw, I see," he traces the red v with his finger, "Lover. Red V. I see what you were getting at-"

    "No you don't."

    "Too bad I've been getting your mom's red V-" Richie yelps as Eddie steps on his toe.

    Summary

    For Eddie, the confession had been an accident. He hadn't actually even said anything, but what he didn't say spoke louder than words. And for Richie, everything that happened after was an accident. He hadn't meant to let himself like Eddie back, but he was powerless to stop it.

    "Before the break, we asked our contestants: who was your first love? Richie, what did you write?"

    Your mom

    "Heh. That's what we get for inviting a comedian on the show," Chet snorts. "Very mature, Mr. Trashmouth. Maybe your partner can illuminate us. You guys were childhood friends, right? So fill us in, Eddie. Who was Richie's first love?"

    Rolling his eyes, Eddie flips over his card.

    My mom

    "Right." Eddie's not sure what to think. "Well, thanks, for sticking up for me." Eddie's also not sure if he means that, but it feels like something he should say.

    "Yeah, 'course," Richie replies. "You're my sister's best friend."

    Summary

    The house on Neibolt was standing again.

    Bill was talking about going in alone. How?

    “So does somebody want to say something?” Eddie asked, still breathing, still fucking breathing and alive and not dripping his Goddamn organs out of his chest.

    “Richie said it the b-best when we were here last,” Bill said.

    “Holy fuck.”
