"Ben is a god. You can't compare him to us mere mortals."
He isn't really paying attention to what he's saying, though. Richie is more focused on the feeling of Eddie's forehead against his own as he closes his eyes and just breathes in. The man he loved, lost, found, loved, and lost again was here. Part of Richie screams that he should be braver and not let the moment here pass but the rest of him is still a fucking coward. At least he doesn't pull away until Eddie does.
Progress.
"Yeah. Yeah, we did. And we will from now on. Missing you.... Missing you sucked, Eds. Really sucked. And I hate to break it to you, but the other Losers are insensitive dicks. You should hear what they all did after you kicked it. Bev and Ben still are buying me drinks to make up for it."
