(His voice climbs, but then he's stopping as soon as it does. He exhales loudly and decides that this still really wasn't the time for it. Eddie's quiet after that, and maybe even more so after Richie's comment about him not wanting to be strong. Richie wasn't wrong is the thing. Eddie was comfortable with living his willfully protected life.
Eddie lets Richie fall asleep. It's sweet, honestly, and reminds him of all the times they had done this as kids. Richie always fell asleep first, and soon, Eddie was asleep with him, his cheek resting on his head. He didn't bother getting up, and really, he wouldn't of thought to go to Richie's bedroom anyway.
Come morning though Eddie does wake before Richie and he eases out of him. He finds a new toothbrush somewhere in Richie's bathroom and uses it before wandering out to the kitchen to start making some eggs. He wasn't too sure if Richie took them the same way as he used to but he supposed he'd find out.)
