He was the type to fidget when nervous, so upon reaching the doorstep, he turned to picking at a hangnail he discovered to ease his anxieties.

Eddie would support the WGA Strike
Just as an FYI
Also Wayne, cuz you know that man is a Union Man who supports labor movements regardless of what industry they're happening in
Wayne would bring the picket line food while Eddie and Corroded Coffin play an impromptu concert to keep morale up
Anyways, now that I have you all here,
I've been lurking (and occasionally going on a post/reblog spree like tonight) in the WGA tags for a little bit now (#wga, #wgastrong, #support the wga, etc) and I've gotta say I am fucking disappointed with how few posts there are and how few notes most of those posts have.
Now I pray that this is just me missing the tag that everyone is actually using for this (I don't see how tho bcuz I'm following every possible WGA tag) because otherwise this lack of support is unacceptable.
This is something that EVERY fandom should have a vested interest in. These are the people who literally create the characters we all spend hours and hours and hours obsessing over and writing fanfiction for.
Hell, WE ARE WRITERS, WE SHOULD BE GIVING THESE POSTS ATTENTION IN SOLIDARITY FOR THAT ALONE.
It doesn't matter what kind of writer you are, Writers Support Writers.
And with a 99% chance of SAG-AFTRA striking after midnight tonight, we as a fandom had better stick to our guns and keep that support up, especially months from now when new shows, new seasons, new movies get cancelled or delayed and new content just dries up.
Even if it means Season 5 gets delayed years.
Go flood the WGA and SAG-AFTRA tags with love, flood the writers who are on strike right now and the actors who have openly shown their support for the WGA love on their various social media accounts, and send an extremely clear message to the fucking Studios that The Fans Stand With The WGA

Okay, on a positive, hopeful note about the upcoming Eddie Munson novel: I really hope we get some more details about the other members of Corroded Coffin!
I want to know about Gareth and Jeff's backstory with Eddie and their lives!
I want "Unnamed Freak" to finally get a fucking name!
I want to know if they've all been friends with Eddie since childhood or if they all met in High School.
I want to know if Eddie has known one of them longer than the others!
I want to know if Eddie considers one of them his best friend or if Eddie considers all of them his best friends or if none of them are his best friend! (And if that's the case, then why? And who is Eddie's best friend? Does he even have a best friend? If not, why not?)
I want to know about the group dynamics of Corroded Coffin! Is Eddie the defacto leader or do they consider themselves a democracy: each member has equal say and every decision for the band is put to a vote.
Does Eddie write all of the songs or do the other members write songs too??
(personal headcanon that Gareth writes at least some of the songs, don't ask me why my brain just decided that)
Do they all like the same bands or is there an ongoing argument about each of their different music tastes? (Goodnaturedly of course, they're all still friends)
What else do they do outside of school when they hang out? IF they hang out other than Corroded Coffin and Hellfire!
I just want more details about the background characters in Eddie's life, because that's what's going to flesh, not only Eddie, but this whole world out and make it seem more believable and realistic.

a masterpiece. <3
Too Late - Sixteen



summary: You’ve always secretly pined over Eddie Munson, your best friend, but when you find out he’s dating Chrissy Cunningham, you reach your breaking point. you seek comfort from Gareth, your second best friend. you figure out he’s got a crush, but you don’t know who, you were determined to figure it out though. but he was determined to keep his feelings for you locked away forever. but plans change, right?
too late masterlist - this is the final chap :(
December rolled around the corner faster than expected. You and Gareth had just celebrated your nine months together, and everything was going great. You and Chrissy had begun to grow closer again, but she ended up moving to California for the summer with Jason, he went to stay with family before college, so you hardly saw her. You did call a lot though. She got back about a month ago, and you’d both just been so busy, you’d only managed to catch up once. The only times you had seen Eddie, was when you’d pass each other in the grocery store, or that one time when you had gone to the movies with Gareth and he was just leaving the cinema with Dustin. You hadn’t spoken, just sharing a glance that lasted no longer than a few seconds. Tonight was Christmas eve, and the air was cold and snow was falling. You were cozying up in Gareth's poolroom with him and the boys, just listening to the Bon Jovi record your boyfriend got you for Christmas. It was a peaceful night. You'd just stuffed your faces with a delicious dinner with Lizzie and Scott.
There was a knock at the glass door, and you all turned your heads to see Scott himself, wrapped up in coats and scarfs, shaking in the cold. You quickly jumped up to pull him into the warm room, slamming the door shut behind him.
“Hi, sorry to intrude on your teenage bonding time,” he smiled as he spoke, “but Liz just hopped into the shower and I thought I’d take the opportunity to talk to you… Gareth.”
“Oh god.” Gareth mumbled, lifting himself up from the bean bag, “What have I done now? I promise you, the tap was already broken when I woke up thismo-”
“No, no.” Scott shook his head, “You're not in trouble… the opposite of that, actually.”
“What’s the opposite of being in trouble?”
Scott thought for a moment, “I don’t know.”
Gareth nodded. You walked up next to him, looking at Mr Clark expectantly. He cleared his throat.
“Right… so… Gareth, I don’t ever expect you to call me dad…”
You gasped, a smile spreading over your face as you realised what was coming. Gareth didn't. He raised an eyebrow and scrunched up his face with confusion, “Okay…”
“But.” Scott nodded, burying through his pockets. You wrapped your arms around Gareth's bicep, jumping with excitement, watching with anticipation. Scott smiled, noticing your excitement. The other two boys were smiling too, sending a few ‘ooh’s his way. Gareth was still confused. Scott held out a little blue box, “May I please have your blessing to ask your mother… to marry me?”
Gareth looked up at him wide eyed, “You want to marry my mum?”
You squeezed his arm again.
Scott took a shaky breath, offering the box to Gareth, “If you’ll allow me, yes. I know your opinion is important to her, I just hope I have won you over…” He tipped his head, “it’s not much. A teacher's salary only really pays the bills, but…”
Gareth hesitantly took the box, opening it up slowly. You peered over his shoulder to see a gorgeous gold ring with a diamond in the centre, pearly stones surrounding it to look like the petals on a flower. It was perfect. Gareth stared at the ring, silence lingered in the room. Scott stared at him, wiggling his fingers as he started to worry with Gareth's lack of response.
He looked up, finally, closing the box. Emotionless, he spoke, “Why do you want to marry her?”
“Uh…” Scott glanced over at your confused expression before looking back at your boyfriend, “Because I love her, and she makes me happy. I’d- I’d love to make her happy, and nothing would mean more to me than your blessing.”
Gareth stared at him.
“I want… I want to spend my life with her.”
“What makes you think you're good enough to spend your life with her?” Gareth quirked an eyebrow, and you gave him a dissatisfied look.
“I…” Scott looked to the ground, “I’m-”
“Nah, I’m just messin with ya.” Gareth laughed, handing the ring back to Scott and slapping him on the shoulder, “Course you can marry my mum. I’m surprised we haven’t scared you off yet.”
Scott smiled, “Yeah?”
“Yeah.” Gareth smiled, “But I’m never calling you dad.”
“No, of course not.” He shook his head and started for the door.
“Go get her Mr Clark!” You shouted.
“It’s Scott.” He shouted back with a smile.
“No it’s not.” You waved him off.
You turned to Gareth with an excited squeal and hugged him tight.
—————————————————————————
The second knock on the door you got that night was from Chrissy. Jeff let her inside so her teeth would stop chattering in the cold, and you quickly pulled her into a hug, both to warm her up and because you missed her. She handed you a gift, perfectly wrapped with a lavish bow, and you handed her one too.
“Thanks Chris.” You smiled, tearing open the paper. Inside was a new pair of boots, “What the fuck?”
“Wh- do you not like them?”
You lifted up the leather shoe with wide eyes, “I… how much did these cost you?”
“It’s not about the money.”
“But now I feel bad.” You huffed.
She tore open her present to find a mixtape, a bracelet with a cute flower charm, and a pin to stick to her leather jacket. You had been decorating yours over the year with buttons and pins, one of them matched with one on Chrissy's jacket from the last time you had hung out. Little hearts with arrows through them. This pin was a Blondie one. Chrissy liked Blondie a lot, they were the crossover between her beloved pop and your rock. She squealed, pulling you into a hug.
“Thank you!”
You laughed, “You’re kidding right? Thank you!”
She rolled her eyes, “Don’t stress it, babe. I knew you had been eying them off for a while.”
You smiled and hugged her again.
“Look, I can’t stay. Jason’s out the front, we’re heading to my parents for the night. Big Christmas celebrations and were running late. But I’ll see you new years, yes?”
“Yeah.” You smiled, “Come on, I’ll walk you out. Say hi to Carver.”
“Okay.” She helped you pull on your boots and a thick winter coat.
You both waddled out the front to find Jason leaning up against his car, smoking a cigarette. You found that a little strange, a guy of his ‘status’, smoking, funny. She ran right into his arms for warmth.
“Carver.” You nodded at him, keeping a metre or so’s distance.
“L/N.” He nodded, extending his hand out, “Truce?”
You raised your eyebrows for a moment, looking between him and his hand.
He sighed, “Sorry for being a dick back in middle school.” He shrugged, “Sorry for being a dick always, there's no excuse. I’m just sorry.” He sighed.
You wobbled your head, thinking for a moment, “You did bully me.”
He scrunched up his face, “Yeah…” he sighed, “If it makes you feel any better, all that bullying really fucked me over. I didn’t get into college… at all.”
Your mouth gaped open, “Yeah, that does make me feel better, actually.” You laughed.
There was a flash of light, and all three of you turned to see who had pulled up out the front. The lights switched off, and you realised it was Eddie’s van. Shit. Wayne hopped out, bag in hand. He waved at you, “Y/N!” He smiled, “Merry Christmas, just droppin’ off some gifts.”
“Merry Christmas, Wayne.” You smiled back, “I’ll be in in a sec. Boys are out the back.”
He nodded and walked up to the front door. Eddie hooped out of his van, seemingly not having noticed you yet. He leant against the hood, lighting a cigarette. You looked at Chrissy, who was looking at the ground and frowning, Jason's arm getting tighter around her. Eddie took the first puff, looking out at the night sky, brushing off the snow that fell down on his face. Jason cleared his throat. Eddie snapped his head in your direction and the cigarette almost fell from his mouth. You noticed a moment of panic in his eyes before he resumed his calm manor.
He nodded his head once, “Carver… Cunningham…” He looked at you for a moment, “L/N. Merry Christmas.”
“Yeah.” You nodded back.
“Very merry indeed.” Jason smiled at him, “Got any plans, Munson?”
Eddie sighed, “Quiet night with Wayne… heading over to the Hendersons tomorrow.”
You nodded. Jason smiled, rubbing hand up and down Chrissy's arm, “That’s nice. I’m heading over to Chrissy’s for the night. We’ve got a big family celebration tomorrow, don’t we, baby?” He watched Eddie tense.
You couldn’t help but smirk behind your scarf. Jason was a mean girl, and you hated it, but god, right now you loved it. You were inspired, “Sounds lovely. I’m spending the night here, celebrating the morning with Lizzie and her man. Then Garebears comin over to mine for Christmas Dinner.” You grinned, Eddie always used to spend Christmas dinner at your house.
Eddie frowned, “Ah.” he nodded a few times, “Good to see you girls as friends again.”
You both stared at him for a moment, sharing a little look of disbelief. Chrissy raised her eyebrows, “Yeah. Having regretful feelings for a jackass really builds a bond.”
Eddie sniggered, looking away for a moment, “Yeah.”
“Anyway.” Jason broke the tension, “We gotta get going. I got some Cunninghams to suck up too.”
Chrissy giggled, “It was lovely seeing you again. Thank you for my gift.”
“Of course.” You smiled, pulling her in for a hug and giving her a little cheek kiss, “We will have to catch up more in the new year.”
“Absolutely.” She smiled.
“Maybe I can even rope Gareth into a double date some time.” You looked at Jason, “Though, that might take some convincing.”
“Mhm.” He nodded, putting his hand out to shake again, “Can we be civil… for Chris?”
You sighed, slapping your hand into his and giving it a firm shake, “For Chris.”
He smiled and saluted you as he opened the door for his girlfriend. You stood watching as they climbed in and drove off, sending them a little wave as they disappeared down the street. You turned to Eddie and walked up to him, plucking the cigarette from his lips and sticking it between your own.
“Okay then.” He huffed.
“It’s the least you could do, jackass.” You leant back against the hood of his van beside him.
He sighed, looking to the ground, “Sorry.”
“No you’re not.”
He looked at you, “Fine. I’m not. Happy?”
“Mhm.” You nodded half heartedly, refusing to look at him as you took another drag.
“You and Gareth are still together then?”
“Nine months.” You exhaled, tapping the ash off the end of the smoke, “It’s great.”
Eddie nodded, “That’s good then.”
“Yep.” You popped your lips on the ‘P’.
There was silence for a moment, and Eddie turned to you, “I still love you.”
You sighed and dropped the cigarette, stubbing it out with your toe, “Good for you.”
“Can you just-” He interrupted himself with a deep breath, “Please, hear me out?”
You looked at him, “What? What’s there to hear, Eddie?” You rolled your eyes, “You’ve already forced yourself on me, begged me for forgiveness and love… I don’t know what else there is to do.”
He rubbed his brow, “I know I’ve fucked up. I know that now, I do… but I can get better. You can- you can help me-”
“Why would I want to do that when I have a perfectly good boyfriend in there, who loves me unconditionally, and wants nothing but my happiness?” You raised your eyebrows and shook your head, “Unlike you, Eddie, Gareth is actually loveable.”
He closed his eyes, taking that like a stake to the heart, “Please-”
“Merry Christmas.” You scoffed, walking back to the house.
You decided to not tell Gareth, or anyone about that interaction with Eddie tonight. It wasn’t the time. The mood was high and people were happy, and talking of Eddie would just ruin that entirely. You’d stash it away for another time.
—————————————————————————
The third time you got a knock on the door was right around midnight.
You and the boys were all in a pile, lazing on one another. You’d just hotboxed the shit out of Gareth's poolroom, and you were all hazy and warm with bloodshot eyes. You had heard a scream, all sitting up in fear. And about two minutes later, when you were all halfway through pulling your boots on sloppily, the knock came. It was from Lizzie, and she was dressed in pyjamas and socks and nothing else, tears streaming down her face. Gareth slid open the door and she hugged him tight. You saw Scott running out the back door with a coat and scarf and beanie slung over his arm for her.
“What?” You asked, rubbing your eyes, your speech was slow.
“I’m engaged!” She shrieked, jumping up and down like a child on Christmas morning.
“Fuck.” Gareth smiled, his voice just as slow as yours, he hugged her again, “Congratulations, mum.”
She wiped at her tears and came to hug you too, “Ah, look at it.” She pulled back and shoved her hand in yours and Gareth's faces, then in Jeff and Grants, “Isn’t it gorgeous.”
“Hell yeah.” Jeff nodded.
“Totally rad, Missus E.” Grant smiled.
“It’s like… so cool.” Gareth began to laugh.
“Looks like somethin in a movie, Lizz.” You grinned.
“Yeah… like,” Gareth thought for a moment, “like a secret spy gadget, you know?”
You laughed, “Like it shoots lasers.”
You and Gareth started pretending like you had laser shooting rings on and fought. Gareth dramatically fell to the ground.
“Are you high?” Lizzie asked.
“What?” You asked, acting like you had no idea what she was talking about but doing a terrible job at it, “Us… high? Lizzie… we would never.”
“Never.” Jeff added.
Gareth tried to stand up, but stumbled. He fell over and you all started laughing. He pressed his palms to his eyes, “God, I’m so high.”
You all started laughing more. Lizzie glared at her son, and then at you. You pulled a face of embarrassment, and it had her rolling her eyes with a smile, “Okay weirdos. Be responsible.” She grabbed Scotts hand, dragging him for the door, “Don’t come inside. My fiance and I would like the house to ourselves.”
“Ewww.” Gareth poked his tongue out, “Mum, that’s gross. That’s my teacher!”
“Not your teacher anymore.” Scott nodded as he was dragged away.
You giggled and fell down on top of Gareth, “Go Lizzie, I think.”
“Nah.” Gareth shook his head, “Mums can’t have sex.”
“What,” You grinned, “you sayin you wont fuck me once I’ve been knocked up?”
“That’s different.” He shoved your face.
“You guys are so weird.” Jeff fell backwards into Grant’s arms and Grant kissed his neck…
Oh yeah. That was something else that had happened in the past few months. Jeff and Grant had come out to you guys, saying they had been dating for like… a year. You were just confused as to how you had gone so long without noticing.
“You guys are weird.” You poked your tongue out at them.
“Nahahh. You are.” Grant added.
“You are.” Gareth chimed in, crawling over to them to tackle.
You all ended up in a pile, wrestling each other and calling eachother names and laughing, all high out of your goddamned minds. By the time you got really tired, you were laying splayed out like a starfish on the pullout, and Gareth was entirely on top of you, acting as your blanket because his weighted blanket wasn’t heavy enough. Jeff and Grant were cuddled up, already falling asleep on the mattress on the floor.
Gareth nudged his nose past your ear so he could kiss your cheek, right by the corner of your lips, “I love you, darling. Merry Christmas.”
“I love you too, Garebear.”
“I can’t wait for tomorrow morning. I got you-”
“Guys. Can we not do this again, please?” Grant whined.
“Fuck off.” You muttered.
“You fuck off.” Jeff quipped back.
“We get it, you're in love, yadda yadda. So are we, we're not being sappy.”
“Be sappy then.” Gareth wrapped his arms around you tighter, “I wanna tell my girl I love her.”
You giggled, “I wanna hear him say it.”
“Jesus.” Grant rolled his eyes.
“Please, save it for tomorrow.” Jeff huffed with a smile, “It’s too late.”

modern gareth for sure lives like a middle aged woman. gossips with their besties (the rest of corroded coffin and hellfire), trips to the salon, buys decorative blankets no matter how many they already have. iconic
THIS. THIS RIGHT HERE.
modern!gareth shamelessly does all of these things. i mean, how do you think his hair stays so soft and curly?

i’m smiling so hard right now. this is the sweetest cc fic i’ve ever read (,:
Girls Night
A/N- I’ve been wanting to write a platonic fic between the reader and the corroded coffin guys for a while, just because overall i love all of the guys together 🥰 so i was very excited to write this!
Summary- You’ve been waiting for weeks for the girls night you had planned with your girlfriends. You were going to do all the normal sleepover things you did when you were younger, doing each other’s makeup and hair, gossip, talk about boys, facials, watch cheesy romcoms and bake cookies, all your favorite things! Unfortunately, you didn’t plan on having them all cancel on you, so your other friends decide to fill in for them.
Genre- Fluff(?)
Warnings- None that i can think of :)
Tag List- Currently no tag list for my platonic fics, but if you’d like to be added to it or to the tag list for my other fics please let me know! :)
You sighed as you looked at the clock on the basement wall.
7:43 pm.
Tonight was supposed to be an amazing night for you and your girlfriends, and you had been planning it for weeks!
It was finally time for a girls night, and you had planned to do all of the things you did when you were younger at all your sleepovers! Though now it would be a bit different when weed and alcohol was brought into the mix, but nonetheless it was going to be an amazing night for all of you. Especially with your parents out of the house.
The morning of, one of the girls had called and canceled for a family issue. No problem! You can’t control things like that, and they could always come to the next one.
A few hours later another one had come up to you during school and said that she had gotten stuck babysitting her siblings, and you understood. Parents never wanted to let their eldest kids have fun or go out, they were always stuck as the babysitter, and you didn’t blame them for it!
You had been so excited still, even after half of the girls cancelled, and you spent the whole lunch period telling the boys about it.
Though it was strange to some people that you were the only girl that the ‘freaks’ hung out with, you were like their sister at this point. You’d known each other since Corroded Coffin was formed and you always came with to every practice and they always listened to your boy problems. What you had was a normal friendship, and it didn’t matter if other people thought it was weird, as long as it worked for you and the boys then it didn’t matter.
After school you had started bringing everything into the basement to get ready for the night. Snacks, alcohol, some board games you had to wipe the dust off of from the top shelf of your closet, a few romcoms you had rented from family video, and everything else you might need for the night.
Another call came right after you had changed into your pajamas, and though you were starting to feel upset that your plans were falling through, you didn’t blame your friends for it! You knew that things could come up that they couldn’t control, and there was always going to be more time to spend with each other.
The final call came just a few minutes ago, and you understood entirely why your last girlfriend couldn’t come with. Having their bills paid is a lot more important than coming to a girls night, there would always be more time to see each other.
Still, it hurt to be all alone in your basement with all the fun things you had planned for the night.
There was a bowl of popcorn all set up on the table, cookie dough in the fridge, and you had already put on Can’t Buy Me Love to watch while you waited for the girls to show up, but it wasn’t the same to be doing those things alone.
You tried your best to keep your head up, setting onto the couch and bringing the popcorn into your lap as you watched Cindy Mancini get wine all over her mothers suede outfit. You deserved a nice relaxing night in by yourself, and even if your friends couldn’t be there with you, you still wanted to have fun. Even if it was by yourself.
The phone started to ring on the wall and you set the bowl back onto the table, picking up the handset and placed it to your ear, rolling your eyes as you heard a few of the guys chatting in the background as you answered,
“Hello?”
“(y/n)! Hey, did your girlfriends come over?” Eddie’s voice was instantly recognizable, “Think they might need some male attention?” You could sense his smirk over the phone and rolled your eyes.
“Alright, first of all, gross. Second of all, you’re never dating my other friends because if something bad happens i’m not getting torn between it.”
“Aw, come on!” You heard Jeff call out in the background.
“Come on, you’re the only girl we know that willingly talks to us, so maybe you can convince your friends to talk to us too.” Eddie tried pleading with you, earning a smile from you.
“Eddie i’ve told you guys the same thing the last 20 times you asked. No! Besides, none of them could come.”
Eddie could tell that you were trying not to be bothered by it, but he knew you all too well, and could hear a light tinge of sadness in your tone.
“Oh. I’m sorry, i know you were excited about tonight, it sucks they couldn’t make it.”
“Yeah, it sucks…” You shrugged and leaned against the wall, “But it’s alright! I don’t blame them for not coming, i know shit happens. Besides, i’ve got snacks and weed and the Brat Pack to keep me company tonight. I’ll be fine.”
You could hear Eddie try to quiet down the guys behind him,
“Alright, sounds fun. You sure you don’t want us to come by or anything so you don’t have to be all alone?”
“Yeah, i’m sure.” You looked back over to the TV and tried to continue on watching the movie, doing your best to keep your tone up so Eddie couldn’t suspect you were more upset then you had been leading on, “I don’t think you guys would have much fun doing my girl stuff anyways.” You giggled, “I’ll see you guys at practice on Saturday alright?”
“Yeah, yeah sure, no problem. See you then.”
You hung up the phone and went back to your place on the couch, dragging one of the blankets off of the back over your body and bringing the bowl of popcorn back into your lap to continue on finishing your movie.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
You yawned and looked over at the clock on the wall once again.
It was close to 8:30, and your movie was finally getting into the best part. The school dance, halloween, Bobby breaking up with Cindy over her ‘relationship’ with Ronald. This really was one of Patrick Dempseys best roles.
You were surprised to hear the doorbell suddenly start rapidly ringing upstairs, and you knew that was Grants ring.
You ran over and paused the movie before quickly running upstairs, looking out the peephole to see Eddie, Grant, Jeff and Gareth all waiting at your doorstep.
You opened the door and saw that they all had changed into their pajamas too, holding pillows under their arms and overnight bags on their shoulders,
“What’re you guys doing here?” You said with a laugh.
Grant shrugged and the guys smiled behind him,
“Girls night.”
You giggled and looked over the guys once more in their plaid pajama pants and old band shirts,
“What do you mean ‘girls night’?”
“Well none of your other girl friends could make it, and we knew how excited you were for it.” Jeff said as he adjusted the bag on his shoulder, “We make you do our guy stuff all the time so it’s only fair we do your girl stuff too.”
“Yeah, you got anything that’ll keep my hair from getting all frizzy?” Eddie said from behind Jeff.
You smiled and your excitement for the night was evident from the blush at your cheeks.
The guys were never into so called ‘girl stuff’ but they hated seeing you unhappy, and it meant the world to you for them to step in and have a good night with you doing all the things you had planned.
You led them in and brought them downstairs and they looked around at the things you had set up all over the basement.
Gareth sat down on the couch and you pressed play on the VCR once again for the movie to play on as background noise,
“So what do girls usually do? Like dress up?”
You smiled and sat next to him on the couch,
“No, it’s not like your little sisters’ sleepovers Gare. I was planning on just doing what we would normally do on our girls nights, romcoms, gossip, do each other’s hair and makeup-“
“Speaking of hair, didn’t you tell me about some hair mask or something? To help with the frizz?” Eddie asked as he toyed with the ends of his hair.
“Yeah! I’ll go grab the stuff from upstairs, it’s all in the fridge, Gare do you wanna come with and help me put the cookies in the oven?”
“Wait, there’s cookies?” Jeff’s attention was grabbed by the quick mention of sweets.
“Oh absolutely, i got cookies, chips, drinks, weed, anything you guys want just help yourselves!”
“I’m coming up to help with the cookies.”
“No i am!”
You smiled and Gareth and Jeff ran up the basement stairs into the kitchen, shoving each other as they tried to push past one another to get to the fridge first with you following soon after them.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Your so called ‘girls night’ with the boys had to have been the best night you’ve spent with them.
Eddie was currently combing out his curls after washing out the hair mask you had made for him, and he was surprised to find out that you could make a hair mask out of bananas, honey, and yogurt.
Jeff and Grant were sat in front of the TV, a package of Oreos and a joint being shared between them as they were invested in the plot of Girls Just Want to Have Fun,
“You think Janey and Jeff are gonna end up together?” Jeff asked Grant as he took a bite of his Oreo.
“I don’t know, but i do know that Natalie is a bitch and doesn’t deserve to win that dance contest.”
“(y/n), you’ve seen this movie, do they make up at the end?”
You giggled as you sat in front of Gareth, the only one out of the others who was willing to let you practice doing makeup on him, though it was mainly due to him already having it done by his sisters so many times,
“I’m not telling you! That ruins the whole movie, just watch it!” The boys groaned and Gareth smiled as you brushed on more eyeshadow onto his lids,
“Yeah, you’re definitely more of an autumn, your hair is brown but there’s a little bit of red in it too so darker neutrals would probably work best with you.”
“What does that mean?”
“It means that those colors compliment your skin tone and your hair color and all that stuff. Like your vest is perfect, maybe you should wear some more darker browns though.”
To be honest, you didn’t expect the night to be so fun, especially with the guys. They had their boy things and you had your girl things but it was nice to be able to do the things that you liked with them, even if they weren’t too fond of them.
“Alright (y/n), my hair is still a little wet,” Eddie said as he walked out of the bathroom, scrunching his hair with the towel in his hand, “but since i’m the only one out of all of us that has long hair, you wanna braid it?”
“Yes i want to braid it!” You quickly got up and sat on the couch, pushing the table out to give Eddie some room to sit on the floor in front of you,
“Sorry Gare, i’ll finish your makeover another time, i can’t pass up an opportunity like this.”
Eddie sat on the floor in front of you and you took the comb that was in his hand, carefully getting out the little knots and tangles that he missed.
Gareth got up and went into the bathroom to wash off his face and you sat cross crossed behind Eddie as he sat on the floor before you. You set the comb next to you and grabbed the sides of his hair, making sure to not make it too tight as you braided.
Jeff and Grant moved back from the TV for the rest of you to see the screen, and Gareth took his place next to you on the couch as he left the bathroom, and you were all sat comfortably as you watched the movie.
You tied up the ends of Eddie’s hair with an elastic and smiled as you took in the scene before you.
All of you, together, having fun like you did when you were younger. And though it was a bit different given the fact that you were doing your ‘girl stuff’ as they liked to call it, it was still sweet of them to go out of their way to come over and spend time with you doing things that you knew they didn’t particularly enjoy.
“Thanks for coming over tonight guys,” You said with a smile as they turned to you, “i really appreciate it. It means a lot to me, it really does.”
“Aww, (y/n) is getting all sappy.” Grant said with a smile.
“I think she wants a hug.” Jeff quickly got up from his spot and so did the rest of the guys as they piled onto you, wrapping their arms around you tightly as they squeezed you tightly.
“No! No, no, no!” You said with a fit of giggles as they rushed you, your arms and legs flailing to try and fight them off of you, but you knew it was no use. You finally gave in and took their hug like a champ, though it felt more like you were being crushed into the couch cushions, “Ok! Get off, it’s getting hard to breathe.”
They did as you said, unwrapping their arms around you in a fit of laughs as they went back to their spots, Eddie moving to the other spot next to you on the couch.
Best girls night ever.

this is so cute 🥺
hi bestie(:
is there any way i could request hc’s for gareth x reader? more specifically one that has to do with how much of a sap he is when he gets alone time w his s/o. personally, i believe he LOVES it when y/n peppers lil kisses all over his face, especially the apples of his cheeks🥺🤭
wonder how the boys would react to seeing this side of gareth👀
THIS IS SO CUTE!!!
and thank you for asking for some Gareth HCs 🥹🫶 he needs more love
Whenever you’re with Gareth he immediately goes into teddy bear mode no matter who he’s with or where he is
He just loves you so much and you make him feel so safe and secure with his emotions that he knows he doesn’t have to be embarrassed about being sensitive
However, the rest of the guys are always a little shocked when you approach Gareth and he immediately melts after a kiss, but as soon as you’re gone he acts like nothing happened
Like they’ll be talking about Hellfire or what songs to play at their next gig and you’ll come over to say hi and have a little conversation with Gareth, but before you leave you make sure to give him a few kisses on the cheek
He goes red and has the biggest smile on his face but as soon as you leave he’ll go back into their regular conversation like they didn’t just see him get all flustered from getting a kiss on the cheek
But as much as he loves getting to show you off to everyone that he can, his favorite moments are always whenever the two of you are alone together
He wants to be held and have you pet him while you’re on the couch watching a slasher movie
He wants to always be touching you, wether that’s holding your hand, snuggling, having his hand resting on your hip while he’s next to you
And even if you’ve been together for a while he’ll still blush and get all flustered when you sit in his lap, hold his cheeks, and give his little kisses all over
And i don’t really know the proper way to say it without making it sound a little NSFW, but he loves that you can always make him feel so submissive and small around you
He’s so used to being the ‘tough guy’ and he never really had a significant other that cared for him so much that he could be vulnerable with his emotions around them
Except for you 🖤
His favorite things that you do are whenever he’s having a bad day, you’ll lay with him and listen to everything he has to say, all while holding his head to your chest and petting him
He loves it when you’ll stop whatever it is you’re doing and pull him down to you to pepper kisses all over his face
And wether he wants to admit it or not, you know you hit his soft spot whenever you give him slow sweet kisses on his cheeks
He’ll immediately start blushing and getting flustered which makes you want to kiss him more and more
Sometimes he’ll feel bad and think that he’s not doing enough for you, all he wants is to make you feel the same way he feels about you
But every single time you’ll always reassure him and make sure he knows how perfect he is for you
You love that you’re the only person who’s able to turn him from being someone who shows themselves as being ‘tough’, into the sweet boy you know he is

DO NOT STEAL MY WORK
he welcomes your affectionate touches
gets shy sometimes if your touching or hold his face
leaning on him during lunch is okay as long as you're not in between him and his can of Dr. Pepper
He's touch starved nerd he's not gonna reject any affection you give him for the most part
he's a little iffy about deep kisses in public he gets embarrassed and his entire face goes red
at the beginning of the relationship, he doesn't know how to tell you when he wants affection, he gets fidgety
after a while, he's more likely to grab your hands and rub circles on your thumb or play with your fingers
don't hold his face in front of hellfire he gets embarrassed by how red his face gets but he loves the feeling it gives him anyway.
he's the type to attempt to discreetly hold your pinky if your unable to really hold hands
hugging him from behind is a learning curve it freaks him out at first but he eventually is used to it and will turn around to return the hug
I feel like to a point he probably need physical affection as much as you do he's a middle child they're touch starved
