    Summary

    the barrens fight is over. the ground still smells like iron and rain, and everything hurts — except the fact that they’re alive. they made it out alive. richie doesn’t know what to do with that, not when stan’s face is covered in blood and teeth marks, not when he can’t stop shaking at the thought of almost losing him.

    so he does the only thing he can think of.
    to touch, to apologize, to kiss every wound he almost never got the chance to. to make stan realize what he truly meant — what he truly felt.

    OR: post-battle. blood, dirt, and the first time richie realizes what he almost lost.
