Thirty-Eight

                                    

                                          
I smirk  softly as the boy lets go, taking my hand instead.
                          
"I'm gonna get dressed." Eddie nods, I make my way into the bathroom, looking at my reflection my eyes a bit sunken in. Most likely because of not sleeping. 
                          
My lips red and a bit swollen. He had kissed me. A second before I sat up I could tell he was doing mouth to mouth. 
                          
It's like I could hear his yelling. His crying. His heavy breathing as he pushes against my chest. His lips soft. 
                          
Small One
                          
T: I think I'm in love 
S: Wdym 
T: too much to explain. But I am.
S: that's good :) hopefully, the guy I like, likes me back 
T: hopefully.
                          
I've been talking to this mystery person for weeks. I feel like I've known them for a whole year. Their personality is beautiful. Their humor too. 
                          
"Richie? Are you okay? I wanna get dressed now if you'll stay in there." "Go ahead." I smile, even though he can't see me I know he can probably tell I am. 
                          
A yellow button-up, a black t-shirt, and black ripped up skinny jeans. The usual. 
                          
"Can I come out now?" "Sure." He giggles. "I would rather not see you naked right now." I chuckle. "That's a big surprise coming from you." He grins, taking his towel and swim trunks to the bathroom. "Come on. Beverly said we're gonna eat someplace nice." I grab his hands, pulling him towards the door. 
                          
"We have to get dressed." Stanley chuckles, Bill pulls him by his hand. 
                          
"Wanna bet they're gonna fuck?" "Now that's a big surprise coming from you. I bet they won't." "Ten bucks?" "Sure. Whatever you say Kaspbrak." I shake his hand before picking him up, throwing him over my shoulder. 
                          
"We bet they're gonna fuck." He says in between giggling. "How much? I don't think they will." Ben smiles in a pure manner. "I mean there's a fifty-fifty chance but I don't think so either." Mike agrees with Ben. They high-five. 
                          
"Ten bucks." I let him down, grabbing onto his arms to make sure he doesn't fall over. "I guess we'll be getting thirty bucks then. No, wait. You guys have to give us fifteen." I glare at the redhead. 
                          
"I literally only have ten. You guys aren't fair." "Fine fine. Ten it is. Now let's wait." 
                          
*A bit later* 
                          
"W-we're back." Bill chuckles. "Where's our money?" I roll my eyes, handing Eddie ten. "What were you two betting on?" "Whether you two would fuck or not." Both of their eyes become wide, their cheeks red. 
                          
"We...We didn't." Bill scratched the back of his neck. "When you lie you scratch the back of your neck Bill. I know you." Bill flips me off. 
                          
"Plus we heard Stanely moaning. 'Bill oh god...oh my god.'" He mocks Stanley. "That's enough Eddie." Stanley looks away. I high-five the smaller boy. 
                          
"Whatever let's go." We all laugh before following the two out of the room. Of course, I put over Eddie on my shoulder. He playfully slaps at my back.
