Chapter 1: one

Notes:

gc fics are overdone but they're FUN okay

so yeah if y'all've seen that number neighbor trend going around on twitter this is essentially what this is skjsks i though it'd be interesting if that's how the losers met yknow

also everything is from richie's phone's pov since he makes the gc
