[ After all these years, it really was like they were closing the book on one period of their life and now... there was uncharted territory ahead of them. For all of them. He had been thrown into someplace where there was nothing but blinding white light and death. He couldn't move, couldn't speak. He could faintly hear Eddie, the others. And then there he was, above him.
Richie thought he had looked beautiful in that moment. More so than ever before. The pride he felt at Eddie doing what he always knew his friend was capable of was just an added bonus.
The kiss... he wasn't sure what to think about that.
What could he think?
Eddie didn't know his feelings. He was sure the others didn't, either.
He instead tries to focus on getting his glasses clean -- which is a pain because of course, that fucker cracked them. He doesn't notice Eddie moving closer to him until he hears his best friend right there. Rich flinches and drops his glasses into the water, a tremor still going through his hands after... everything. ]
Fuck.
[ Bill notices first and then dives down for them. The others do, too. Leaving just him and Eddie above the water. ]

You would've done the same for me, man.
