Richie is the only one Eddie lets come over. Not Bill or Stan or Mike. Only Richie, just because Richie won’t pity him.
Richie just leans his bike up against the panelling of the house and steps over the mess on Eddie’s doorstep. He wears his converse inside and tracks dirt and leaves from the quarry all over the carpet, something Eddie’s mother would’ve had a conniption about if she was still alive. Now that Sonia is dead, he’ll smoke his cigarettes inside the house. He’ll stretch his long limbs across the couch, and ask Eddie if he’s excited to complete a marketing degree at Princeton.
Eddie should be mad, but he isn’t. He can’t bring himself to be.

“Were we in love, Richie?” Eddie questions.
Richie thinks long and hard about that. He thought it was love with Molly Simons in the second grade, he thought it was love with Angela Stewart in seventh, and he thought it was love with Connor Bowers in tenth.
But now he realises he was in love with Eddie Kaspbrak the whole time.
Or
Richie and Eddie hang out for a final time before they go to college, and realise they were in love the whole time
wish you were sober
1/1, 1.9k, eddie kaspbrak/ richie tozier, coming of age
Eddie and Richie had a very complicated relationship. They were constantly dancing on the edge of the line between ‘just friends’ and ‘more than friends’. Eddie wanted to complain about Richie’s incapability to commit (or maybe he just wanted to kiss him).
Or
Eddie hates parties, but is dragged to one and drawn to the emotional mess that is Richie Tozier
