Part 1
The moment the law was passed in June 2008 in which gay marriage was legal in California, Richie decided to ask Will again once more if he would marry him.
They were sitting together on the beach when Richie took both of Will’s hands in his. They both wore matching rings on their ring fingers. Will rarely ever took his off as they were a symbol of how strong their relationship was. Ever since their year and a half apart, their bond had only gotten stronger. They looked into each others eyes, a loving expression filled Richie’s obsidian orbs. Will wasn’t quite sure what was on Richie’s mind, but something told him he was going to like it when he found out what he was thinking.
“Will Byers, would you make me the happiest man on Earth, and marry me?” Richie asked with a gentle smile on his face.
The law had just changed the day before and Will had a feeling they were going to finally go through with their plans, but he wasn’t expecting a second proposal. The first proposal had been in their bed in their crappy apartment just after they rekindled their relationship. It was romantic enough in Will’s opinion as emotions had been running high, but this, it was also very nice.
Will smiled radiantly, a look of sheer joy in his beautiful hazel eyes. He gripped Richie’s hands and nodded.
“Yes, I’ll marry you. Finally.” Will said excitedly.
Richie pulled Will close, pressing a kiss to his forehead. The warm sunshine blanketed their bodies, enveloping them in a warm embrace.
The couple got everything ready for the following month, planning to marry each other July 12th, 2008. That was the soonest they could get everything together and ready as well as get their friends and family there.
Richie and Will busied themselves in their wedding plans, both of them nervous and excited for the big day they weren’t sure they’d ever see. The loser’s club, now living on the same street as each other in a rather private Californian coul-de-sac, had offered to help out as much as possible for preparations.
Beverly took over the job of their wedding attire and Ben found them a venue that his company had built. Stan had worked wonders with making sure they could save at every single turn in the wedding planning. Bill made arrangements to help find the wedding guests from out of town nice places to stay as well as all their accommodations. Eddie got to work making sure everyone involved in the wedding had proper transportation and from a reliable source. Mike decided to take care of the catering for the wedding including their cake.
Having their friends helping out so much had taken a lot of stress off the couple as they knew they could trust everyone with their wedding vision. Richie had been very insistent on rainbow themes and Will wasn’t about to stop him. Even all of their friends were up for the idea.
The other loser’s decided to plan their own weddings to be different weekends of the same month. Ben and Beverly were to be married last, waiting until August for their wedding, once they knew their friends were hitched.
Richie allowed his friends to decide which colour of the rainbow they would each represent. It didn’t take them very long to decide. Bill chose the colour red, Eddie chose green, Stan chose blue, Mike chose yellow, Ben chose green, and Beverly chose orange.
When Will told his friends the colour scheme going on, the party of Hawkins picked out their own colour choices. Mike picked blue, Eleven picked purple, Dustin picked yellow, Lucas picked red and Max decided upon green. They didn’t have someone in the wedding party on Will’s side for orange, but it didn’t matter all that much to Will or Richie. As it was, Joyce offered to wear the colour instead much to their surprise. Will told her she didn’t have to do that.
All of their guests were encouraged to wear rainbow themed colours or just simply colours of the rainbow. Somehow Joyce had talked Hopper into wearing a midnight blue suit. It looked good on him, but it certainly seemed out of place considering he didn’t like dressing up often.
Nancy and Jonathan went with a red theme to their dress and tie selection while Holly Wheeler dressed herself in a powder pink dress that had gold straps and stopped at her knees. It went nicely with her blonde hair. Karen and Ted had gone with the blue themes, while Maggie donned a soft emerald green dress.
Richie opted for a black suit and dress pants. He wore a white undershirt and a rainbow striped tie. Will decided for a white suit and dress pants with a black undershirt and a tie that was identical to Richie’s. They both looked handsome in their outfits. Richie kept making remarks about how ‘virginal’ Will was going to look all dressed in white. Will simply rolled his eyes at the teasing.
It was predicted to be a beautiful sunshiny day for their wedding, so having it on the beach seemed like the best option. They managed to get the wedding booked rather quickly, and decorators were ready to set up the location for them beforehand. Will and Richie decided to have various tropical flowers of all colours as decorations. It was going to be beautiful.
The night before the wedding, Will didn’t want to let Richie go to Bill and Eddie’s house. Kissing Richie’s lips, Will held Richie’s face in his hands. Richie rubbed Will’s sides, humming a little to signal he wanted to speak.
“Will, I have to go. Tomorrow’s the big day.” Richie told Will only to have a tongue slide against his bottom lip followed by teeth pulling at it, “Come on, Will… you’re killing me here.”
“I want you to stay over… we can have sex as much as you want in any position you want. I just don’t want you to go…” Will begged cutely.
“It’s tradition, though. It’s bad luck to see each other before the wedding.” Richie reminded with a grin.
“I don’t care, we’ve got nothing to worry about. We’ve gotten past all our bad luck already, so unless you’re going to go back to snorting cocaine in secret, I think we’re alright.” Will assured him.
“I think you’re just horny and you don’t want me to go.” Richie smirked a little, both hands groping at Will’s ass through his plaid PJ pants.
Will smiled a little, “Maybe I am…”
“Did you want me to send my cousin over to show you a good time?” Richie teased watching Will’s expression change to one of annoyance.
“You’re not funny.” Will told him.
“You don’t want Mike to bend you over every piece of furniture in the house on your last night of being unwed?” Richie asked as he gripped at Will’s ass lecherously.
“Stop that…” Will blushed a bit, avoiding eye contact.
Richie eyed him for a moment, “Oh my God… you’ve thought about it before, haven’t you?”
“So what? He looks a lot like you.” Will shoved Richie before crossing his arms with a pout.
“Oh, now that’s funny. I can get him over here if you want.” Richie pulled his cellphone from his pocket, “Let me just give him a call.”
“No!” Will grabbed at Richie’s phone only for Richie to hold it away from him with a big smile on his face as his arm span was longer than Will was able to reach on his tippy toes.
Richie snaked his arm around Will, leaning in to kiss his lips sweetly. “I’m just fucking with you.”
“Yeah, but not in the way I like.” Will sighed.
Richie looked at him thoughtful for a moment. He could tell Will was in need of some sort of satisfaction, but he knew he had to go if he wanted to uphold the tradition of not seeing Will on the wedding day before the wedding.
“Look, I know it’s been a year since we all lived in that big house together. We all agreed to slow down our crazy sexcapades, but I could call some of the losers over if you want to have a fun night before our wedding.” Richie suggested.
Will looked at him for a moment, contemplative. “…Well if you’re going to stay at Bill and Eddie’s house… maybe… Eddie could stay here tonight with me?”
Richie grinned, “Damn it… and I won’t be here to watch all that beautiful love making.”
“Please?” Will’s eyes held a hint of desperation as he spoke.
“Alright, I’ll ask them.” Richie said before sending off a text to Eddie’s phone.
“In the meantime…” Will said before pulling Richie closer, “Let’s kiss some more.”
Richie leaned in, pressing their lips together. They had grown more affectionate over time. It seemed odd to Richie’s co-workers who had lost much of the spark in their marriages. The loser’s and the party all seemed to have the same sort of spark they’d had when they started dating their significant others, so to Richie, it was normal.
“Oh… looks like he’s in.” Richie smiled looking at his text messages.
Will’s eyes lit up, “Alright, now I don’t feel so bad about sleeping without you.”
Eddie arrived in just a few minutes, walking over from his house over to Will and Richie’s. Opening the door, Richie allowed Eddie inside.
“Hey, be sure to show my fiancé a good time.” Richie said before smacking Eddie on the ass, watching him yelp.
“You asshole!” Eddie shouted as Richie laughed, heading out the door.
“You are what you eat!” Richie retorted before blowing Will a kiss on his way up the sidewalk.
“He’s a maniac, I don’t know how you are set to marry him.” Eddie smiled a little as he closed the door, locking it up.
“I’m so nervous for tomorrow.” Will said honestly, his arms crossed against his batman t-shirt.
“It’s going to be a wonderful day. You just wait.” Eddie said gently rubbing Will’s arm, “Did you want to go to bed?”
It was only ten in the evening, and Will wasn’t close to tired. He was too anxious and wound up over the prospect of being in front of so many people. It wasn’t marrying Richie that made him nervous, it was the crowd of onlookers. “I… don’t think I’ll sleep right yet.”
“You need something relaxing… like a bubble bath.” Eddie suggested.
Will smiled at him, “Come with me?”
“Of course.” Eddie smiled as they headed upstairs.
They walked together to the large jacuzzi tub Will and Richie often bathed in together. Eddie took it upon himself to start the warm water while Will picked out some scented oils to help him relax. Lavender was the scent he poured into the hot water as it filled up.
“Do you have any alcohol?” Eddie asked suddenly.
“Yes, downstairs in the fridge.” Will nodded, “There’s some pink champagne.”
Pink champagne was something Beverly had gotten Will into. They drank it together often and it quickly became Will’s drink of choice. Richie liked it as well, so there was always a bottle around.
“I’ll go get it.” Eddie said before heading downstairs.
Will watched Eddie go and looked at his own reflection in the mirror. He was so eager to get married to Richie. There was no question in his mind whether it was what he really wanted. Richie meant everything to him.
Eddie’s footsteps could be heard climbing up the stairs before the brunette made his appearance with two long stemmed glasses and the bottle of pink champagne that Eddie had managed to uncork downstairs.
“Are you excited for your honeymoon?” Eddie smiled knowingly as Will’s smile grew bigger at the thought.
Will watched Eddie pour them their glasses of alcohol as he thought about it. Richie had been rather secretive about their plans.
“I don’t know what Richie has planned. He won’t tell me where we’re going. He wants to surprise me.” Will told Eddie, “Do you know anything about it?”
“I might know something, but you’ll never get it out of me.” Eddie giggled before pulling his clothing off carefully.
Will decided to follow suit. He removed his PJ’s and let them reside on the ground next to Eddie’s clothing. They both climbed into the tub, each taking an end. They were both short, so sitting across from each other meant they had enough leg room. Will turned on the jets and allowed the scent of lavender fill his nostrils.
“I just hope everything goes as planned tomorrow.” Will said looking over at Eddie who was relaxed and happy across from him.
“It will, don’t even worry.” Eddie smiled encouragingly.
They talked for a while as they relaxed in the tub. It was helping calm Will down immensely. Drinking three glasses of champagne definitely helped. Before long, Will was nestled in Eddie’s arms, the two of them giggling together about embarrassing childhood stories. It felt good to spend time with one of his best friends. Mike would always be his very best friend, but Eddie was a very close second.
“So… you wanna get out of here? The water’s getting cold.” Eddie suggested.
Will carefully got up and downed the fourth and final glass of champagne before he climbed out of the tub, staggering towards his towel. Eddie got out and got himself wrapped In a towel as Will tied one around his waist.
Eddie helped Will walk to his bedroom, holding him up by his middle. Will stumbled over his own feet and began giggling cutely. Eddie couldn’t help but smile at the sound.
“Will, you drank way too much.” Eddie spoke with amusement.
“Yeah, but you let me do it, so it’s your fault.” Will laughed.
They got to the bedroom, and Eddie helped Will get into the bed. They both tossed their towels aside. Will wrapped his arm around Eddie, resting his head on his shoulder.
“You’re so warm…” Will commented before pressing a kiss to Eddie’s chest.
“You’re horny, aren’t you?” Eddie asked as Wills fingers gently traced Eddie’s toned muscles.
“Maybe… Can you fuck me this time?” Will giggled.
Eddie ran his fingers through Will’s hair gently, “Well, if you want to, I’ll do my best, but I’m also pretty drunk too.”
“Deal.” Will leaned up pressing his lips to Eddie’s.
Eddie kissed Will gently, their tongues sliding together as Eddie invaded Will’s mouth. Will rolled onto his back, Eddie lying on top of him. Will reached over to the night stand for his lubricated condoms. The moment he grabbed one, he handed it to Eddie. Opening the package, Eddie rolled the condom onto his hardness. Will lifted his knees and felt Eddie sliding into him almost immediately.
“Mmm… you’re starting to like being on top once in a while aren’t you?” Will asked, as he remembered a time when Eddie would never be anything but a bottom.
“I have to admit, it feels really good to be in complete control like this.” Eddie grinned before he began moving his hips.
The alcohol and the feeling of Eddie rutting into his prostate was sending Will into a state of bliss. He cupped Eddie’s face, pressing their lips together. Eddie nipped at Will’s lower lip before he began moving his hips faster. Will had to hand it to him, Eddie had enough energy to keep a quick pace like that.
“Eddie! Oh my God!” Will moaned loudly.
He gripped Eddie’s shoulders, his legs wrapping around Eddie’s hips. Eddie didn’t let up, he braced against the wall above Will’s head and kept at his pace.
“You like that?” Eddie asked, knowing full well Will was very into it.
“Oh yes! Don’t stop!” Will begged, his entire body tingling with each thrust.
Eddie slowed his pace only to thrust twice as hard. Will began to make louder noises, his nails digging into Eddie’s back. “Oh shit! Shit! Shit!” Will moaned as he was coming close to his climax.
Biting his lower lip, Eddie forced himself not to come. It was hard as Will was peaking his arousal between his moaning and how tightly he was gripping around his cock.
“Fuck… Come for me.” Eddie ordered as he continued to move his hip a little faster.
Will reached down, gripping his own erection moments before he came, sparing Eddie the mess.
“Oh my God…” Will groaned as he came into his hand.
Eddie thrust a few more times before releasing into the condom. He rolled off Will, lying on his back next to the panting blonde.
“That was good… I feel so much better now…” Eddie ran his fingers through his hair, “I’m glad Richie asked me to come stay with you.” Eddie laughed softly.
Will smiled and wiped his sticky hand clean, watching as Eddie removed the condom, tossing it into the trash. Once they were cleaned off, Will rested his head on Eddie’s shoulder.
“Thanks for coming over. I think I can finally sleep after that.” Will said feeling quite relaxed.
Eddie wrapped an arm around Will as he spoke, “Good, anytime I can help you out, just give me a call.”
“Mhmm…” Will sighed, closing his eyes peacefully.
He was lucky to have the losers club in his life, but even more, he was lucky to have Richie. Will couldn’t imagine a life without him. Before he drifted off to sleep, Will thought about the wedding once more. He was ready to be married to the love of his life.
