Eddie
I turned around quickly at the familiar voice. The boy with messy black hair and a dark blue collared shirt with short sleeves, looked down at me with a slight frown
Richie: What are you doing here
Eddie: Oh... your m-mom—
He put a hand up and cut me off
Richie: so let me get this straight. You stalked me through my window, followed me to my job at the cafe, and now your showing up at my house?
He smirked down at me and I blushed softly.
Eddie: Your mom invited me to dinner. And let's talk about the cafe shall we? Why did you write cu—
Maggie: there you are Richie!
Maggie came back down the stairs and stood between us
Maggie: Eddie, this is my son Richie
I held out my hand and he looked down at it
Eddie: Nice to meet you...
He shook it dully and looked at his mom
Richie: why exactly is the neighbor boy here?
Maggie: He helped me move in boxes so I invited him to dinner. Don't be rude Richie, show him to the table!
Richie rolled his eyes and began walking as I followed behind. We sat down at a three seated table where Maggie was at the long end and me and Richie were right across from each other.
She served us our plates of something that looked like a casserole.
Maggie: So Eddie, what's it like here in Derry?
Eddie: Oh, well it's a small town and there's not much to do. But there's a quarry at the far end of town and the Main Street is nice
Maggie: What about school?
Eddie: It starts up again in a few weeks. For me, school is okay. I'm the soccer teams captain so I get around well—
Richie: Your the soccer team captain? But your so little!
I blushed and giggled at the boys cute smile as he called me little
Eddie: Yeah... but I can handle myself
He leaned back in his chair and looked at me with a grin. I felt his boot tap against my Vans and he brushed it off as an accident when I looked at him. But then it continued, and his foot wrapped underneath mine
Is he trying to play footsies with me?!?
He smirked at me as I blushed and tried to stay focused on what Maggie was saying
Maggie: —How does that sound Eddie?
Eddie: Oh! Uh... great. That would be cool
I totally blanked out on what she said but she smiled so I'm guessing it was good
Maggie: I'll have Richie ready by tomorrow then!
Richies foot tensed and his smile flattened
Richie: Wait what?
Maggie: Eddies going to show you around town tomorrow! Isn't that fun?
He moved his feet and sat up in his seat
