New hair, new you. (one shot): Eddie Munson X Reader

Summary: you come home after a day where you just don’t exactly feel pretty anymore with your haircut and have some regrets about the decision.

Just pure fluff and cuteness from Eddie; this is mainly inspired from my own recent haircut and insecurity surrounding that. 😅

“Seriously it looks fine.”

“No it doesn’t; I had to get it fixed this afternoon and now it’s even worse.” You groaned and buried your face in the throw pillow on the couch. Eddie leaned back on the couch with an exhausted sigh. You were all smiles two weeks ago when you got home and while it was a jarring at first he did like it.

“What happened? You were thrilled with it the other day and it just seems like little by little you’re feeling less confident.” You raised up and looked over at Eddie, he rested his head on his hand on the back of the couch and stared at you, when he did this you knew he was as actually listening but he was always listening.

“I just don’t feel pretty. Like I know I could barely do much with my long hair but now here I am with hardly any at all and I feel nothing has changed.”

“Why don’t you feel pretty?”

“Because I’m not.”

You had been pretty good friends with Eddie since high school and while nothing more than friendship had ever happened between you two even though you wished it would sometimes, but you were just his friend, a friend who apparently looked like a troll. You felt like you could play that role in his campaigns he arranged with the guys he knew. They’d all have a laugh, him included.

“Well I think you look pretty, short hair or long.”

You looked at him again; his face was dead serious and he reached out a hand taking yours and softly tracing circles on the back of it. “Really?”

“Yeah, I’m dead serious. How do you not see that?”

You shrugged and leaned back against the couch again. “Maybe because no one has ever bothered to ask me out and even when I do change my look, like with this,” you gesture to your haircut, “I still don’t get a single glance from the guys around here.”

Eddie chuckled, “Do you really want some of these guys to go out with?” You shook your head and laughed a little bit too. It was silly really, but still you’d never had anyone tell you how pretty you were and never had any guy ask you out so you must be somewhat of an oddity. “I didn’t think so. Besides you’re way too good for this town.” He playfully shoved your shoulder and it made you smile, a small one but enough.

“Thanks. It’s just hard you know?”

“Yeah. I never really thought you cared much anyway?”

“Eddie look at me now? I’ve never been on a single date and I am almost thirty. That’s not exactly a good thing to have going for you.” You buried your face in your palms and gave out a disgruntled groan. “I just hoped this would make things easier and that someone would take notice.”

“Someone did.”

You turned and looked at him again, your eyebrows furrowed and your lips pouted. “Who?” Eddie playfully pointed at himself and smiled. “Well yeah you noticed, you were the first one I showed the whole thing to.”

“I would’ve noticed even if you didn’t come over. I just…” he took a sharp breath in and leaned forward with his elbows on his knees, his eyes fixated on the window instead of you. “I feel like an idiot because I never looked at you in any other way than that geeky girl who I knew from high school. Now…” he glanced back at you and again his breathing halted. You had started to wear some slightly more delicate clothing since the haircut to counteract the appearance and keep your style more feminine. Eddie had been taking in the new clothes; dresses, skirts, peasant tops, lace and dainty jewelry. “Now you look so good all the time and I’ve had a hard time finding the words to express it.”

“You mean, you think you like me?”

“Not think.” He pulled on leg up on the cushions and turned his torso towards you, his face inching closer and closer. “I know I am crazy about you.”

“I… you… Eddie?”

He held up his hands silently admitting defeat and moved his body back to where it was before. “It’s okay, I just wanted to say it. You don’t have to make me feel better or anything. Shit I could even be the asshole for saying that while you are sitting here and pouring your heart out about not feeling attractive.”

“Eddie you’re not an asshole.”

He smiled at you and then you did the unthinkable; you reached over and took ahold of his face to pull him in and kissed him. His lips were slightly cracked from the constant wetting his lips he would do before playing a gig and even when he was nervous. His tongue moved into your mouth and gently grazed your lips which tickled and made you giggle.

“Hey most girls don’t laugh when I do that.”

“It just, it was unexpected and I’m not used to it.” He nodded; remembering that you had zero experience in dating and therefore kissing; you’d never tell him that it was actually your first kiss; or maybe some day when the two of you are old and you no longer give a shit. You’d probably both just laugh.

“Maybe we could try it again?” He seemed nervous; odd given this suave confident man usually had no problem talking to women or flirting. You leaned in and kissed him again, your hands trailing to his lap before he broke it off once more. “Not yet, I think we should wait.”

You glared at him, never once in your entire friendship with Eddie had he ever turned down a girl; there truly was something wrong with you. “Yeah you’re right. I don’t know why I did that.”

“No it was nice, but I think you should be treated better than that. Like I could actually take you out a couple times and then we could try that?”

You smiled coyly; “Eddie Munson, are you asking me out?” He nodded sheepishly. “How many dates are we talking here?”

“Three, that’s the standard rule.”

“How about one?”

He shook his head and smiled; that cocky little grin, because to him he wasn’t going to back down. “Two is as low as I’ll go.”

You folded your arms and stood up to stare him down. “How about one date and I’ll wear that new sleeveless black dress I bought last week from the mall?”

His eyes practically exploded out of their sockets, his cheeks burned bright red and that cocky grin now replaced with an embarrassed giggle. “Okay you win.” You smiled and sat back on his lap to kiss him a little more; it shouldn’t be too long if the date was tonight, you’ve waited this long.

Bucky X Reader

Summary: Bucky catches you trying to sneak past him.

Part Two:

All clear; you have been checking the hall before leaving now ever since the other morning. Bucky has been eerily quiet these past two days and you haven’t seen him since which was a relief. You duck out quickly before making your way to the stairs and realize you forgot your wallet on the table. You run back and open the door before snatching the item up in a swift movement. Closing the door and locking it you turn to make your way back to the stairs.

“I’ve been wondering where you’ve been.” That sly smirk on his face and those sparkling blue eyes; his hair was down today and a little greasy but it wasn’t anything that diminished his looks. “I should probably apologize for the other night; I was quite rude and probably not the best person to live across the hall from.” “It’s okay.” You stammer, your face burning from both the embarrassment of being caught by him and also the idea he’d been looking for you.

“No it’s not, I don’t exactly have the best track record these days with my neighbors and I know many would rather I leave the premises; but you were very kind the other night to come by and check on me. No one has ever done that. Thank you.” “You’re welcome.” You fixated your eyes on a water spot on the wall behind him, you feared if you look at him you ought go into a giggling hysteria and god that would be even more embarrassing. “So, where you off to?” “I needed to go to the market. I’m out of coffee and a few other things.” “Mind if I tag along, I need to get a few things for my place.” “Like what?” “Oh some new coffee mugs, plates, a mirror; basically anything that I broke.” “Oh.”

You began to walk as he trailed behind you. “I assume the coffee is because I probably keep you up isn’t it?” “I mean, a little. But it’s really not that bad. I get what’s happening for you and I understand that you’re having a lot of problems. So if I develop a caffeine addiction that’s not so bad.” “We could splurge and get you some earplugs. Maybe some of those giant headphones I see the kids wearing.” You snorted, covering your mouth from the shock that it even escaped, but he just smiled like it was the most enduring thing he’d ever seen. “Kids? Wow, I mean you’re not that old yourself here buddy.” He smirked again and shuffled his feet while he stared at them. “You’d be surprised.”

In truth Bucky was excellent company at the store; his broad frame made the creeps who usually stalk you through the aisles back off, he was not bored by your conversation or the incredibly bad dad jokes you made every now and then, and he didn’t make you feel scared or ashamed. You got everything on your lists and then some, Bucky also insisted on paying for both your coffee and a set of earplugs, he really was serious about those. He even carried the bags himself the whole way back to your flat.

“Bucky would you like to come over to my place?” “Do you still have that chamomile tea?” You giggled, and swore you seen the man blush. “Yes I do.” “Great, just let me drop off my things at my place and I’ll be right there.” You both walked into your flats and shut the door; you scrambled to pick up the place as best as you could and also put all the cold items in the fridge. You pulled down that box your mom bought you for tea and pulled out two tiny yellow packages. You put the kettle on and even opened the window to let some light in; while it wasn’t exactly the most stylish flat in the city it would do for the moment. After all it’s just tea, nothing more and nothing less.

The knocking at your door alerted you to the fact that the extremely attractive, sweet, and you were hoping single neighbor was back. You stood up and smoothed your pants, straightened your hair, and glanced in the mirror to make sure no food was in your teeth and that you at least looked decent. “Hello, it’s been a while.” God this charming man would be the death of you.

Sweet Dreams:

Bucky X Reader

*Warning* PTSD (Bucky), language, violence, and hostile behavior from Bucky.

Summary: Bucky has lived in this apartment building for a while before you moved in. The slumlord has warned you that many previous tenants have left due to the chaos of Bucky’s behavior.

Part One:

“Look out!” You wake up and hear the crashing noise again; the glass shattering and the cries that remind you that your neighbor is once again having one of his episodes.

“Steve! Don’t go in there! Steve it’s a trap! Steve!” That’s a name you frequently heard cried out in the night and the pleading cries. You lay there staring at the ceiling, the sound of his room being trashed in his terror and knew that in a matter of minutes the building would fall silent.

“No, I want to go home. Please let me go home…” a wave of cries like that of a child who had been separated from their mother escaped him, your heart ached for Bucky and the pain he’s feeling right now. He sobbed as you stood up from the bed and put on your bathrobe before waiting by the door. It had been like this all month and while you were told just ignore the noise and if you decided to leave you would get your deposit back with no complaints. Still this is absolutely ridiculous that not a soul has ever been by to check on the man.

After a few minutes the noise stopped and you could hear the glass being gathered around and most likely swept away by Bucky. You walked across the hall and knocked softly on the door. The sudden clang of metal on the floor alerted you that he never expected anyone to come to the door and now he’s probably worried it’s the cops. “Don’t worry, it’s Just F/N, L/N from across the hall. I was just coming by to see how you’re doing?”

The door opened a crack as you peaked in, the place was a mess and even without the incident it still would be. There was a lot of trash and takeout boxes in the back, clothes strewn around without a care, clumps of dust flying around and you knew he only grabbed the broom to clean the messes he made unintentionally. Suddenly a bright blue eye peered back at you and a sliver of black hair. You jump back startled by the sight and clutch your robe in your hands.

“I’m sorry, I just heard the commotion and wanted to make sure everything was okay.” “It’s fine, I’m sorry if I woke you Miss L/N.” “It’s okay, but are you sure you don’t need help cleaning things up? Maybe you can come to my place. I have chamomile tea. It’s said to help calm the nerves.” “You don’t want to have me over there. Trust me. I’ll be fine.” He slammed the door shut and you heard the chain secure. Sauntering back to your place you couldn’t shake the feeling that he was watching you through the peephole.

The next morning you were grateful to have the day off from work; you perched yourself on the ladder to look outside the hall through the peephole and waited to catch a glimpse of your rather elusive neighbor. You nibbled on your cereal and sipped your coffee; from 7 am to 11 am but never saw him leave. The flat was eerily quiet for him and you began to wonder if he had died. Calling the slumlord to do a quick check was off the table because he had promised Bucky that he’d let him live in peace. You wish you weren’t such a busybody because that’s what you too should be doing.

Suddenly the door opened and your jaw almost hit the floor along with your bowl and mug. The man across the hall was not as menacing as you’d assumed; he had long black hair pulled into a bun, chiseled jawline, BROAD shoulders, those striking blue eyes you saw last night and he was probably 35 years old. You couldn’t believe this man was the one everyone was terrified to go near; he was not anything you assumed. He looked up at your door while he lifted a large box with his left hand with such ease, you ducked to hide under the tiny peephole and left your ear to the door. You swore you could’ve heard him chuckle. You waited a few seconds after hearing footsteps before peeking back to the deserted hallway. You felt your face burning and your heartbeat faster.

Oh shit, do you really have a crush on your neighbor now?

You’re Safe With Me

Eddie Munson + Reader

*Warning* Smut ahead! 18+ only minors DNI. Virgin reader, oral sex (Fem receiving), penetrative sex, blood.

Summary: After seeing each other for a couple of months you and Eddie finally have some time together alone. And Eddie has had one thing he’s been wanting to do with you; well a few things. 😉

Part Ten:

“Okay Eddie it’s my turn to pick the movie now.” “I don’t want to watch that one though babe.” You gave an exaggerated pout to him, he just smiled and placed a kiss on your lips. “But it’s one of my favorites.” “Is it a love story?” “Yes but they also have to try and steal this statue without getting caught. It’s a cute one, plus I love Audrey Hepburn.” “I know you do.” “Not to mention Peter O’Toole is kind of sexy.” “What?” “You heard me, he’s sexy.” Eddie pinned you down to the couch, his grip wasn’t too tight but enough to hold you in place, you felt the heat radiate between your legs. Why was this a turn on?

“First I find out you like Kurt Russel and now this?” “Specifically Kurt in Escape from New York; you know I love the long haired scruffy looking guys.” “So am I on that list?” “I don’t know?” You jested, he planted another kiss on you and trailed down to your neck. “I guess I’m going to have to try and get these other guys out of your head then. Make sure I’m the only one you think of when you’re alone.” He nibbled at your shoulder and licked the base of your neck, “Oh believe me; they’re attractive but you are all I think of when I’m by myself.” He buried his face between your neck and left shoulder; sucking just behind your ear. God he was going to drive you insane. “Oh yeah? How good am I?” “To me the best but maybe you’ll need to prove that theory?”

Eddie stopped and looked back at you. His eyes shifted from your eyes to your lips and down towards your breast. “Oh really? You need to make sure your theory is correct huh?” “Well for research purposes yes. Unless you’d rather just watch the movies and later tend to yourself.” His eyes hungry and wanting; he kissed you, his tongue darting in and out, biting your lip and then your chin. “Not on your life. I’ve been waiting for this moment with you. But are you sure?” You nodded, and then looked at him again. “But I want to tell you something first.” He paused and looked at you, “I lied, I’ve never done this before. I’ve never done any of it. I figured you’d find out sooner or later and I just wanted to let you know. So don’t expect some spectacular experience with me.”

He gave you a soft peck on the nose and then one to each eyebrow. “That’s okay. It’s not a contest or anything and besides that, experience doesn’t always mean anything. But if you don’t want to do this or it gets too much just tell me; it’s all about making you feel good. Today we’ll focus on that. If not, then I will watch the movies with you.” “Well I felt like I needed to be good because…” He kissed you as you tried to explain away your lie; “F/N?” “Yes?” “Just shut up for a moment.” You nodded while he plastered you with kisses.

He began to tug up your shirt before pausing to look at you; “Do you want to go back to the bedroom or stay out here.” You looked around and the sun still crept through. Despite the fact that most knew you and Eddie were a couple now and Wayne wouldn’t be home for a few hours you didn’t want to give Hawkins a show. “Bedroom.” With one swift move Eddie lifted you off the couch and headed to his room, you wrapped your legs around his waist and tried to plant a few kisses but he stumbled nearly injuring the two of you. “Just wait a minute, I’m not the most coordinated guy here.” You laughed as he finally made it to his room and gently placed you on the bed.

He laid down on top of you pinning you down with kisses and his body weight; you could feel the mattress sink under the two of you; if it were going to last for this it wouldn’t last long after. Eddie pulled you up to a seated position and gentle took your top in his fingers. “Are you sure? Like be honest and say it. Cause I’ll be okay.” You glanced over to the stain on his sheet and back to Eddie whose face burned red with a knowing embarrassment. “Munson, I’d say you have been waiting for a while for this. And so have I.” “Oh yeah, similar to me huh?” You smiled and hid behind a curtain of your hair; “Maybe. But I’m sure the real thing is better.” “Me too.” He kissed you again and only broke free to lift your top over your head, or tried to. The collar got stuck on your face and he spent a minute laughing at your predicament before fully removing it. “You know I was going to say something about the bra but that was too funny.” “Oh hush, you. I’m nervous enough as is.” “You’re nervous? How do you think I feel?” “But you’ve done this before?” “Not with anyone I liked, most of those were quickies in a bathroom so hardly romantic.” “Are you trying to woo me Eddie?” “Is it working.”

You leaped over to him and began to kiss him again, trailing them down his neck and to his shirt. You lifted it over his head and thankfully his met no resistance. You stopped to admire the beautiful man before you. The tattoos on his collarbone and chest; a few scars here and there that decorated a beautiful pale canvas. “What is it.” You smiled and kissed his collarbone, sucking just enough to leave a mark by tomorrow. “You’re beautiful; like seriously it’s unfair how gorgeous you are Eddie.” “Same goes for you F/N.” He mirrored your act and you felt his mouth suck at your neck like a vampire was drawing blood. “God you’re so beautiful.” He tackled you to the mattress again and began to trail kisses down your torso; when he reached your belly button he began kissing it and you felt his tongue flick it slightly. You giggled. “What was that?” “A preview of coming attractions.” You wrapped your arms around his head as he continued to kiss you there before he blew on your stomach.

“Eddie!” “What? I couldn’t help myself.” You laughed and pulled him back up to kiss him again. “You’re lucky you’re so cute Munson.” “Not sexy?” “Hmmmm. I don’t know.” He lowered his lips to your ear, you could feel his hot breath hit the nape of your neck sending goosebumps all over your body. Then he did the unexpected, he growled, and nipped your shoulder. “What about now?” His voice was a low whisper, deeper than his usual tone and made your stomach do a somersault. “I think you keep doing stuff like that I’m going to shorten that list of mine.” He raised his head to kiss you again, playful little kisses before moving to your other shoulder to give it a little bite to match. “You’re not hurt are you?” “Eddie please you barely touched me.”

He smirked and removed your bra; you lay back on his bed waiting in response. Eddie launched himself to suck on your nipple like a thirsty man craves water. You felt your back arch in response and a gasp escape your lips. Eddie hummed in approval. Releasing himself for a moment, “Feel good?” You nodded, words didn’t matter at this point, in fact you couldn’t even move. Eddie continued on the right breast and you felt his thumbs gently tug at your pants. He undid the buttons and started to pull them before you began to kick and flail your legs until the finally came off. All that was left were your panties. Eddie chuckled at the display; “Anxious?” “Yes, I’m ready.” Eddie slipped a hand down your panties and slid a finger between your folds.

“Not yet; maybe just a little warm up.” “No; Eddie I’m ready for you I swear.” He planted a kiss on your lips and you could feel him already getting hard against your thigh. “Patience angel, all good things to those who wait.” You groaned “How long are you going to torment me?” He smiled and began to suck at your nipple again; you cried out as the pain was hit you, Eddie paused and gave it a soft kiss instead. “I’m sorry, was that too much?” You nodded and Eddie trailed kisses down your stomach, you braced for another raspberry to be blown on your belly but he just continued down to the top of your panties. He paused to look back at you and then kissed the inside of your thighs.

He tugged your panties down slowly and tossed them into the pile of the rest of your clothes. He sat up and drank in your naked body on his bed, a smile creeping in his face. “What are you doing there Munson?” “Just looking at this gorgeous angel on my bed; I want to remember this for the rest of my life.” You smiled and tossed your hand behind your head to pose like a playboy model. “That do anything for you?” “You have no idea.” “So does this make me a miss January?” Oh definitely, here let me grab my Polaroid.” “Eddie no!” You screeched and covered your breasts when Eddie pushed you back onto the mattress. “Joking, joking.” “You’re such a jerk Eddie.”

He grabbed a pillow and placed it under your back before kissing your legs and inching closer and closer; you instinctively opened your legs for him. He leaned back and smiled. “Hmmm, are you sure you’ve never done this before? ” “You’re the first.” His eyebrows raised, and then that sky smile crept up on him. “Maybe I’ll be the last?” “I’m sorry I lied before.” “S’okay. I’ll be gentle; just tell me if you want to stop.”

You felt his breath on the inside of your thighs and another kiss on them both before he began to suck at your throbbing clit. Your body lifted off the bed and you pulled his head closer and closer to you. You felt him laughing and moaned at the sensation. “Fuck Eddie!” He laughed again clearly aware of the effect it was having; when you felt his tongue flick over you it was all you could do not to cry out in ecstasy. “Oh my God; Jesus!” “He’s not here babe; just me.” You held onto the sheets with on hand bawled them between your fingers and Eddie’s hair with the other. Poor guy will be bald in the morning.

“You want to try something else with this?” You hummed as he paused to hear a more vocal response. “What?” “Well I could try to get my fingers involved too.” “Is that even possible?” He chuckled at the remark; he must’ve thought you were really cute not knowing the whole situation. “Yes it is; but it can be a bit intense at times. Some girls can’t handle it.” “Munson; I’m not those other women, and I swear if you think of them while down there…” “Fat chance! But I know from my experience and others how this can go. If it’s too intense I’ll stop and we can try something else.” You laid back; you legs like jelly already and your pussy sire from the attention he’d already given it. But you needed everything from Eddie; whatever was possible you wanted it. You nodded and Eddie resumed his place and proceeded to flick and suck before slipping one finger in. You gasped at the sensation and felt your toes curl and your left leg wrap behind him.

“So far so good?” You hummed with pleasure and that’s when Eddie flipped his damn finger over and curled it around a spot that made your eyes roll into your skull. “Oh my God Eddie! Please, do that again.” He happily repeated the movement several times and then slipped his other finger inside to add it to the equation. You were babbling incoherent phrases and nothing but begs and pleas for him to keep going as he was. You pulled him closer and closer into your body not even thinking about if he could breathe or if he was opposed to it but he didn’t seem to mind. He speed up the pace as you felt your body jerk and lift into complete spasms.

He raised himself to look back at you, his face had a sheen to it around the mouth and a coy smile across his lips. “You did really well; I have a hard time believing you’re a virgin.” “Well I’m not now.” “Well almost, there’s still some things to tick off for that.” He climbed up on top of you and paused looking at you, he wiped his mouth and hesitated while looking at you. “Is it okay if I kiss you.” You nodded; he did and you could taste all of you on him which made the kiss even more tantalizing. You felt his erection through his boxers and let your hand wander down to it and lightly graze over his shorts.

He winced at the touch and you also felt the damp spot forming on the fabric. “You want to fuck me properly Munson?” He nodded and lower the waistband to expose himself just enough, he reached over to his nightstand and you heard the unmistakable foil wrapping being discarded. He hesitated before bringing it to your entrance and lightly slid it through your fold as you hummed at the sensation. “I’ll go slow so you don’t get hurt.” You nodded as he gently pushed himself in; it was so painful. You winced and felt your body try to reject him. He paused and gently kissed your forehead. “Okay take a deep breath; it’s okay. Just relax, don’t even think about what is happening down there.” “How can I not? It’s already halfway there.” “Actually I’ve barely even got it.” “What!?” He nodded bashfully as you collapsed your head back into the mattress. “Sorry.” “S’not your fault.” You closed your eyes as you felt Eddie push himself further in, again meeting with resistance from your body and each time you winced he paused and kissed you or caressed your face. He wasn’t silly or rough now because he could see the way you felt and he would stop if you said it; in fact you could tell he wanted to stop because he didn’t feel like this was working.

“Hey babe?” You nodded, still wincing and eyes closed. “I’ve got some news for you?” “What you still have another five or six inches to go?” “Nope, it’s all in and you’re definitely not a virgin anymore.” You opened your eyes and looked up at him, he nodded and kissed you once more. “I’ll give you a minute before I try anything else.” “No, just go; I’m ready.” He nodded and began to rock his hips into you. You felt him slowly slip away and back in, it wasn’t a massive departure from you but enough to prod that sensitive spot he’d been favoring.

Eddie placed his hands on the mattress beside your head; you felt him thrust forward towards your body and reacted with a loud moan. Eddie smirked; “You should try with another pillow underneath.” “Okay?” “You sure?” You nodded; you weren’t opposed to whatever he suggested as you felt he was probably bored already with this more than basic act. He pulled his other pillow and placed it under your back; you were now closer than before to his face. He kissed you in a response to the nearness of you. “He started slow again before picking up the pace and you could feel every inch of him deep inside you and around your back. It felt amazing and you couldn’t stop him if you wanted; he was now beginning to enjoy the moment. “Wait hold up stop Eddie.” He paused and leaned back a little; he never left you. “Um did you want me to try another angle perhaps?” “How do you mean babe.” He panted, the sweat dripping down his torso painting his body in a gorgeous sheen. What would happen if I turned over onto my stomach and leaned forward on the pillows?” His eyes raised up; apparently that was a good idea to him and you knew that he would do it if you wanted. “Okay let’s get you turned over here.”

He slipped out and you sighed at the sudden emptiness you felt between your legs. “Don’t worry; he’ll be back in a moment.” He fluffed the pillows and sat back as you adjusted to get comfortable. You heard him kick off his boxers the rest of the way and placed his hands on your hips. “Okay, I’m going to go slow again; just relax.” You took a deep breath before feeling that familiar sensation again; this time your body welcomed him with little effort. He laughed and you felt his left hand slowly trace down your spine and sent goosebumps through your body. “God you’re beautiful.” “Eddie you’re already inside me you don’t need to be giving me compliments.” “No; I have to do this. It’s required by law. If I’m into the girl I’m fucking I need to at least let her know I like her. And believe me…” you felt his tongue trace the exact patterns his fingers did a moment before; and felt your walls tighten. “I’m really into you.” “Oh yeah?” “You need more proof?” “I don’t feel you proving me anything right…” before you could finish he began to point into your hips and took them both in his hands again.

He let his left hand snake around to the front and began to make little circles over your already aching clit. You cried out in response; you could feel him deeper than the previous position and with that he just made you feel everything even the colors of his bedroom. He didn’t go slow as promised instead opting to show you he was not going to disappoint you. “Fuck! Eddie! Don’t! Stop!” You said between gasps for air; Eddie’s hand quickened as well and you could feel a twitch from him. His hand tightened on your waist and you yelped in pain. “Babe, don’t… I’m… fuck! I’m about to cum!” He bottom out as you heard him choke out his gasps. His hand still between your legs.

“Eddie, I’m close.” He turned you back over and knelt down face between your legs again. “I’m sorry babe. I’ll make it up to you.” He began to suck again as you felt your walls closing and the knot in your stomach tighten up. He slip his fingers back in and sped up the pace. You gasped and felt your legs clutch around his torso. You fell back into the mattress as Eddie crawled to lay on top of you. The pair of you panted and lay in silence for a moment, Eddie placed a kiss on you collarbone before placing another between your breasts.

“So better than you imagined?” You nodded, again words lost in the moment. “Same here.” He panted, another kiss placed on your neck, cheek and finally lips. “I never finished before the girl so that was new.” “Is that a bad thing?” “No, just all about what is triggering you; hearing you scream like that and feeling your body react as it did just sent me to the moon. I’m amazed I was able to last this long.” “I’m sorry I wasn’t able to get there like the rest.” “Hey it’s okay; it was your first time and it’s normal to get into your head. Don’t worry; it’s not a big deal.”

He kissed you again and wrapped you up in his arms. “Give me a second.” He got up and left the room; you lay there looking at the posters on the wall when you heard the faucet running and then Eddie returned with a damp cloth. “Is that for my forehead?” “No, open your legs a bit.” Eddie was so gentle wiping away the mess between your legs; he pulled it away when you saw the spot of red on the cloth. You gasped in horror. “Again, it’s normal; this was your first time and that can happen. You’re going to be okay. You can shower off in a few minutes if you’d like. Also make sure you use the bathroom pretty quick here.” “A lot of rules huh?” “Just precautions.” He kissed you again, and buried his face in the crook of your neck; “If you’d like I can join you in the shower.” “That’d be nice but can we both fit in there?” “Easily.” “Not like your dick then.” He playfully slapped your stomach and laughed. “Eddie?” “Hm?” “Did I, was…” He looked up softly at you. “Was I terrible?” He pinned you down under him again and planted a deep kiss on your lips. You felt his tongue trace patterns in your mouth and wanted him to do that to your pussy again. “Babe, you were great. I think you may have been the best sex partner I’ve ever had.” Like always not a hint of sarcasm to what he said; just the blunt truth. He stared at you sincerely and intently like he would spend the rest of his life making sure you knew what he meant. “I love you Eddie Munson.” “I love you too.” He curled beside you and tugged you closer to his chest; you felt the worry and fear drift away. Eddie was still there and would probably always be there for you for the rest of your life.

*warning* Mentions of suicide and sexual assault, violence.

Summary: you and Eddie fave your classmates and confront Chris once and for all.

Part Nine:

Eddie’s hand tightened around yours; his palm sweating causing his grip to slip. You lace your fingers through his and fold them together. He mirrored your act and looked back into your eyes. His smile wasn’t the cocky one he normally painted on for lunch, nor was it the sweet smile he gave you, it was like the grin one wears when getting forced to take a picture.

The room grew quiet as the two of you walked through the door; Eddie pulled you closer to him and placed himself in front of you slightly to block the glares. He made his way to the Hellfire club table, Dustin Henderson was all smile and outstretched his arms to you. “Glad to see you Y/N. We were really worried.” “You were?” “Of course. Also it’s nice to see Eddie not being so distant today, or to see him at all.” You turned to Eddie who scrunched his face with cringe; “You’ve been skipping lunch?” “Well I had to see you.” You couldn’t stop the smile forming on your face, it stretched your cheeks so much it was painful but it was worth it.

“Look who showed up!” Chris sneered behind you and Eddie; along with the entire Baseball team. “Freaks in love. Hey L/N, was that dick worth the OD or the hospital visit?” “You know what happened Chris!” “Yeah; I know you’re a slut! Giving the freak a blowjob for your fix, and trying to act innocent. It’s always the quiet ones.” “Shut the fuck up!” Eddie’s fist met Chris’ nose and he flew back into Brian Peter’s busting his as well.

“You’re dead Munson!” “Glad to know you at least called me by my name for a change Chris.” “Everyone will know when it’s on your tombstone!” Eddie pushed you behind him and put his fist up; you knew that last one was sheer luck; Eddie wasn’t much for fighting and while he could land a couple hits it wasn’t anywhere near what damage these guys could do. The room erupted in cheers and students jumped on the tables cheering on each guy for the win.

“My money is on Munson, that guy killed a man last year. I’m sure he could get away with it again.”

“I’m betting on McDowell; look at him! He’s never missed gym.”

“Who cares! This is better than anything else that’s happened here.”

“So does the winner get L/N? Like are they fighting over her?”

“Nah; Chris is way too good for that trash!”

You don’t know how you ended up where you were; amidst the chants and chatter, the tension between the men and the absence of the staff who were most likely getting authorities to help. But here you were, broken lunch tray in hand over your shoulder, panting like a dog in hot weather, Chris on the floor; blood gushing from his nose and cuts on his face, Eddie standing back with his arms up like he was approaching a dangerous animal, because he was.

You dropped the tray and backed up to the chair behind you before bursting into tears. The room stared in shock, fear and horror. “Tell the truth Chris! Tell them all how you tried to have your way with me before I punched you in the face. Tell them how you were the drugged up trash that night! How Eddie denied giving you more! How this was all a ruse to get Kate to sleep with you without her knowledge! You’re a fucking pig!!” The whispers between students and teachers; all asking who to believe.

“Tell the truth!” You ran up to Chris’ shriveled body as he cowered from you. “Ok!!!! I tried, no one else came by. Besides who dresses like Sigorney from ghostbusters without wanting something?” “What the fuck dude!” “You’re sick Chris!” “Man I have been in favor of this guy; god I feel like I’m going to throw up.”

��Mister McDowell!” Principal Higgins stood in the doorway, his arms behind his back like a soldier standing at attention. Speaking of which Eddie uncharacteristically did that when he heard the voice. “Mister Munson! Miss L/N! My office now!”

You waited for Eddie to finish, Chris glared at you from the other side of the room. Miss. Kingston cleared her throat which made Chris straighten up. Eddie left the room all smiles and sat next to you while Chris went to the office. “How deep of shit are we in?” “Not too bad; I mean for me a week of detention is a cakewalk. But I have no clue what Chris will face or you.” You groaned and leaned on Eddie’s shoulder. “You really went off on Chris in there.” “What exactly happened?” Eddie pulled away and looked at you, his eyes wide. “You seriously don’t remember?” You shook your head, Eddie took your hand in his and looked into your eyes; he paused for a moment to reevaluate how to phrase the chaos.

“Chris was about to hit me, when you leaped over the chair and started to wail him with that lunch tray. I’m talking beating the shit out of him. I’m surprised he’s not in the hospital. You finally stopped once he started to cry; then you started yelling at him…” “I know that part.” Eddie nodded and gave your hand a squeeze. “God I can’t believe I did that.” “I told you, you have some serious power to those punches.” “Eddie stop, this is serious.” “I know; it’s okay though. You just had enough. Most would probably have done something else but, babe you’re a fighter. A damn good fighter; like orc levels.” “That’s not good.” “No it’s amazing. You’re so strong, you may not think it, but you’re strong.” You smiled and rested your head on his shoulder again. “But remind me to never piss you off.” You gave him a playful shove. “Ow!” “Shut up.” You kissed him when you heard a deep cough. Principal Higgins shook his head and motioned you to his office.

“Miss L/N… what are we going to do about this?” “I don’t know what you mean sir?” He sighed and leaned on the desk. “We’ve had multiple issues with you as of late and I understand you had a problem last week but to attack a fellow student like that.” “Sir, he was going to hurt Eddie. I couldn’t let that happen.” “You do realize we have a no violence policy here?” “I do.” “Furthermore after what Mister McDowell said to me, it seems that the issues stretch further than a simple cafeteria quarrel. Is there anything you wish to tell me?”

You told the whole story of the party, Eddie coming by to take you home, the rumors and your jump in the pool. He sat there and nodded like he was really listening but you knew it wasn’t really a concern for him. His school had an image to maintain and that’s all he cared about. “Two weeks suspension. Mister Munson can bring your schoolwork to your home.” “Yes sir.”

“Munson, you’re getting to become a bad influence on me!” “Ditto.” He smirked and wrapped his arms around you pulling you in for a kiss.

Summary: You and Eddie face the judgment Hawkins together. Things begin to heat up between you two as you start to have a hard time ignoring the elephant in the room.

Part Eight:

One Week Later:

The van screeched to a stop outside your house; you looked outside and eagerly threw on your backpack and headed outside. The house was quiet these days, mom had her mornings at work and then evenings at her therapy sessions, mandated by the doctors at Hawkins Memorial; you also had therapy but in the afternoons after school. You barely saw her and honestly that was fine with you, she knew the truth about that night and while she still didn’t trust you the whole team of medical professionals told her she had some serious problems that needed to be addressed herself.

Eddie was great; every single day after three he’d show up and stay for the duration of the visiting hours. He’d snuggle beside you, read you some of The Hobbit, go over his upcoming campaign ideas; which you later learned he had postponed a session on the account of wanting to spend the night with you, much to the dismay of the Hellfire Club. When there was nothing to do he’d just sit and talk with you about the things going on, updates on Hawkins and the school.

The rumor was now spreading around about you trying to kill yourself over Chris no longer wanting you; the idea of that made your stomach churn. Eddie tried to address these rumors by yelling at the students during lunch but sadly no one bought it because he was always making scenes like that and he gave up because the threat of detention would hinder his time with you.

That was the biggest thing you were dreading today; you walked slowly down the pavement to Eddie’s van, he walked out and opened the door for you again bowing like a knight. “M’lady.” He extended his hand and you took it while he helped you inside. The van still smelled the same, Eddie jumped in and turned to look at you. You nervously smiled at him, he glanced at your lips and back to your eyes again. “Can I? I mean may I kiss you?” You blushed and nodded, he pulled you into his face and gently kissed your lips. His hands held the side of your face as yours grabbed a bunch of his hair and one slid down to the base of his neck. You could feel the skin on him pebble at the sensation.

He pulled away and smirked, his face bright red; “I’m happy to see you.” “I can tell.” You pointed to the obvious bulge in his jeans. He panicked and placed a knit cap over himself. “Sorry about that.” “It’s okay Eddie.” You cocked your head to the side and gave him a wanting look. “Yeah well we’d better get to school.” You sighed and looked ahead as Eddie headed off to school.

His music choice for today was Ride the Lightning by Metallica; more accurately Fade to Black. You listened to the lyrics, occasionally glancing towards Eddie. He was laser focused on the road, his jaw clenched and you could tell he was trying hard to keep his mind off the things he was wanting to do with you. Glancing down at his lap you could tell it wasn’t working too well for him, you decided to try and help him a little.

“So what do you think everyone is going to say when they see us walking in together?” A quick glance and you could see that spot get significantly smaller. “Who knows, McDowell will probably shit his pants though. Dude made everyone think he’s like this sex god that you couldn’t get enough of!” “Nah I only have my eyes on one guy for that.” Big mistake, the spot grew, you just couldn’t help that comment from being said. “Sorry, I didn’t mean… I mean I did but I didn’t think.” “S’okay.” Eddie tilted his head back into the headrest, god you were an idiot. “You know I wonder if I’ll have to punch him again?” Eddie chuckled, “You may end up having him in traction if you do that slugger.” “Is that my new nickname?” “Hey you know you’ve earned that one, and I’m still recovering from that punch on my shoulder last week.” He rubbed the spot you tapped him and winced. You playfully punched the other and he yowled in pain. “Oh my god you are so aggressive!” “Big baby, I barely hit you.”

You two pulled up to the school and Eddie stoped the van. It was a few minutes before the busses would begin to arrive and the lot was virtually empty. You looked back to Eddie who was averting his eyes from you and then you glanced towards his lap. It wasn’t as large as before but he still had it. “Eddie do you want…” “No I’m fine, I’ll be okay just don’t talk for a minute.” You lowered your tone to a whisper; “Can it hear me?” He laughed through clenched teeth; “Yes, if I can hear you it’s going to know because I know.” “Do I need to um, do anything like you want me to…” “No!” You backed away, Eddie had never been so aggressive and terrifying; his tone was dark and menacing, his eyes filled with desperate anger, and then they softened when he saw the fear in you. “Oh babe I’m sorry.” You tearfully shook your head, then nodded then shook it again. “It’s fine Eddie.” “No it’s not, c’mere.”

He pulled you in for a hug, and you buried your face into his mop of hair; he rubbed the small of your back like he did that first night and then he pulled you even tighter to his body. “I am sorry. I just; if we tried that I know someone would see and I don’t want things to get worse for you. And besides; you deserve a far better experience than getting me off in a van for your first time.” You pulled away from him and shot him a glare. “Who says it would be my first time?” Eddie grinned, “Oh yeah? Who do I have to compete with then?” “Just some guy. He wasn’t bad but it was a forgettable experience.” Eddie nodded just as some cars began to pull in. You looked again and the spot was back to normal.

You and Eddie have it a few minutes; nothing more was said and the urge seemed to wane from his body. He got out first as the eyes began to follow him to the passenger door; when he helped you out, it was no surprise to hear the whispering from the students and staff. Word had gotten out you were out of the hospital because you overheard your mom on the phone the day before, she opted to give you one day to rest in your own bed before returning; and people probably wondered why that was.

Eddie took your hand in his as you both walked to the entrance. You walked past a small group who giggled and a group of guys whose eyes almost popped out of their sockets. Eddie’s palms were sweaty and his grip on you was not as strong as you wanted it to be. You too seemed to have the same problem but you both maintained the contact as you headed to your locker. Eddie stood opposite of you as you unloaded your bag and grabbed out the first couple textbooks for class. “Well I think that made an impression.” “Good or bad?” “Do you really care?” You looked back to Eddie, he smiled, it wasn’t the same as his more genuine cocky smile but he did his best. “Just about you.” He kissed the tip of your nose, and you could hear some audible gasps and laughter.

Eddie walked you to English and stood at the door his hand like a vice on yours; “I will be in the shop room; you have any issues… just run away and find me. We can ditch these clowns and go back to my place to watch some movies or something. I don’t care.” “Do we have to watch movies?” He smirked “Don’t try to just skip out to do that.” You pouted and he lightly pecked your lips. “C’mon; it’s going to be fine.” You parted from his hold and headed into class.

It was difficult trying to ignore the talking; everyone was abuzz about you being back but to see you show up in tow with Eddie and to top it all off; you two were pretty cozy together. In between each class Eddie would find you and walk you to the next; asking how it went and how you were doing. When you asked him the same thing he just shrugged and asked about you again. The closer you got to lunch the bigger the knot in your stomach became; by fifth period when you were about to learn about the government policies in Bolivia the bell rang. Everyone scrambled to the door and you could see the unmistakable mop of brown hair that was Eddie waiting outside; he poked his head in and gave you a soft smile. “You ready?”

Summary: Things take an unexpected turn for your afternoon.

Part Seven:

A faint beeping in the distance woke you up, you rolled over to try and switch off your alarm but found your hands bound down and your chest aching. You open your eyes; the room around you was brightly lit and a light blue shade. A seat nearby had only one occupant; nestled with his knees up to his chin and eyes closed was Eddie. His hair a frizzy mess and his jacket draped over his body like a blanket. You groaned and seen his eyes flutter open.

“Oh my god! F/N!” “What the hell? What’s going on here?” “I should be asking you that? What the fuck were you thinking?” You groaned again and tried to sit up but the restraints held you back, Eddie pressed a button on the side of your bed as you rose up to meet his gaze. He had been crying again, tears crusted in the corner of his eyes and they were each bloodshot. “Eddie I just want to be alone, and I want this to stop.” “By killing yourself? That’s going to be the answer to stop this?” “Well I wouldn’t have to hear them. And I would no longer exist to add fuel to the fire.”

Eddie knelt closer to you and leaned in towards your ear. He smelt of bleach and cleaning chemicals; which made you want to puke. When you wrinkled your nose he seemed to have gotten the message and backed away. “You know they would still talk; they’ll always talk. There’s nothing else to do here in this town besides talk now. They lost everything so gossip is all they have and some people can be so mean and cruel when they hear these things. It doesn’t matter what you do or say they will always see you as that image now. So even if you were gone, they’d say how you were the slut who killed herself. And imagine how much they’d say about me.”

“You’d be fine. You’d be given sympathy.” Eddie laughed and crossed the room the his coat pulling out a pack of cigarettes. He shook one out and tucked it behind his ear; then tossed his lighter in his side pocket. “No, they’d say “There goes Eddie Munson; he shamed that girl so much she up and killed herself. See what happens when that freak gets a girl?” You looked at him and saw that he didn’t mean it to sound harsh but that hurt more than anything else you’d heard today. “I’m sorry Eddie. I just… I don’t think I can do this.” You began to bawl and tried to wipe away the tears forgetting the restraints. Eddie rushed over dropping the camels to the ground and knelt by you to wipe them away. “Hey, hey, hey. It’s okay, I’m just happy you’re still here.” He placed a kiss to your temple; you relaxed a little, which he apparently noticed. “You know, I get that it’s terrifying when this first happens. And I won’t lie what they’re saying isn’t the nicest; especially compared to my list. But I will be there for you through the battle if you want me to be. If not I will leave you be and we can get on with our lives as we were yesterday before the party.”

You looked at him, Eddie had seen the world be cruel and unkind to him for so long; he’d taken in the beaten and downtrodden as friends for years. He could be harsh but it was all to protect his friends from being hurt. Eddie is probably the only person on earth who understood better than anyone what it was like to be rejected. You moved your hand as best as you could to take his fingers and gave them a squeeze, he flinched. “Oh, sorry.” “Seriously what are you doing to get so strong? Bad enough you beat the shit out of me in the pool.” “Wait that was you?” He gave you a soft smile; “Of course. Wayne and I told your mom the truth and we were heading back when I seen you dive in the pool. I jumped the fence and dove in as quickly as I could.” “Why?” He kissed your forehead again and then your nose and finally your lips. “Why do you think?”

You began to cry again and he smirked. “Eddie Munson what am I going to do with you?” “Well I could think of a few things. But for now I’ll just do this.” He climbed over the guard on the bed and slid between it and you. He wrapped his arms around your torso and pulled you in to his body; he was warm and even though he reeked of pool chemicals this was exactly what you needed. “Thank you Eddie; for everything.” “You’re welcome F/N. Now let’s get some sleep.” You felt your eyes grow heavy and Eddie’s heartbeat pounding against your arm; the rhythm soothed you to sleep.

You woke another hour or so later when the nurses came in to examine you. They kept the restraints on as they felt it was best to keep you from trying to hurt yourself. Eddie had managed to get off the bed before any of them came in and kept his focus on a Rolling Stone article; you assumed the magazine was his own. The Doctor came in all smiles and stated they needed to ask you a series of questions. Eddie was asked to leave the room for this and it was just you and the Doctor. “Now your mother wants us to do a very thorough examination on you. By this we mean checking for drugs or alcohol in your system and also she wanted us to do a rape kit. Now you can say no if you’d like because there was no evidence of drug overdose or the like. So if you don’t want that just say so.” “No it’s fine, maybe you she will believe.” He smiled and called the nurse to draw blood and handle the kit. It was all uncomfortable and invasive but once they finished Eddie was allowed back in.

His hair was a mess and he smelled of Irish Spring soap “Did you shower?” “Well you didn’t like how I smelled so I ran home and got cleaned up as best as I could. How is everything going?” You shifted up a bit and Eddie ran to your side to place a pillow behind your back. “I’ve been poked and prodded at all to prove that nothing happened. The only thing that will show up in those tests is the coffee you gave me this morning.” “I know, did you want anything?” You nodded, Eddie knelt beside you and anxiously tapped his fingers on the railing. “Could you maybe lay here with me again?” “Absolutely.” He swung his leg over and wedged himself between you and the bed rails; nestling his nose in your neck. “Like this?” “Perfect. Thank you.” He pulled you closer, his body warmed you from the inside; he kissed your temple and jaw. “You can rest now babe.” You felt yourself drift off, Eddie holding you close and keeping you safe in his arms.

Summary: You arrive home after breaking things off with Eddie, thinking over the last twenty four hours and what the future holds for you now.

Part Six:

You walk into the house; the stilled silence a comfort for once. The mail lay under your feet and you sort through the bills and a postcard from your Aunt Jen from her cruise. Amidst all the paper was a letter scrawled in sharpie;

“FREAK SLUT!”

You balled it up and tossed it in the bin by the door. Walking to the kitchen you grab the block of cheese from the fridge and cut off a few pieces with the large knife. Nibbling on the cheese and watching a rerun of Family Ties you sat on the sofa. The house all quiet aside from the Keaton family on TV getting onto their latest hijinks. You thought of Eddie and his face twisted with agony when you left him sitting in the van. You checked outside about five minutes later and the van was long gone. You wished he’d come inside and sat with you, or at least came back. You found yourself glancing outside hoping for a glimpse of that van again, hoping to hear that clunky sound pull in.

When you heard the sound of gravel breaking apart without any other noise you knew that could only be one person. You turned off the set and stood up, dusting the crumbs off your pants and straightened up the best you could. She opened the door and walked into the living room stoping and just staring at you. Neither of you moved a muscle and no one was able to speak. She took in deep breaths and her face burned red.

“Mom I…” “Shut up F/N! Do you have any idea what my day was like?” “I can guess.” “Oh no you can’t! First I get into work about fifteen minutes late because I barely slept last night and was unable to wake up on time. So I get yelled at by the mayor and his secretary. Then I begin to get a lot of sympathetic responses to my presence in a room. People saying “I’m so sorry what you’re going through” “it’s okay, my family had a similar experience” and my favorite “Don’t worry I doubt she’s going to get pregnant while doing those drugs”. Which left me all confused.” You looked down at the floor and shifted on your toes. “Look up at me F/N, M/N!” You obliged.

“Then I finally decide to inquire what all this hubbub was about and do have any idea what I hear?” “I think so.” “That you were fucking two boys last night at the party and the one you decided to do drugs with! You said you were with a friend and that no boys were involved.” “Mom I was with a friend, Eddie…” “Eddie! Oh so you admit you were with him. You slept with him, took some pills and had a good time. No wonder you looked like shit when you got home!” You began to feel the tears falling, your throat felt like sandpaper and you could barely get a syllable through your mouth without pain. “Mom it wasn’t like that at all. Eddie was being nice and decided to take me home after we watched some movies together; I feel asleep and…” “Oh for fucks sake F/N that is the worst excuse you could give. Of course sleep, sleeping with, is more like it.” “No, I mean we kissed…” Before you could finish the sentence her hand came flying down and hit your cheek. You felt to the floor, your hand gently touching the red welt on your face. She stood there above you like an evil tyrant, no remorse or anything.

“I am going to head to this Munson kid’s home and give his parents a good talking to. No child of mine is going to have a bastard child with trailer trash!” “Mom, you don’t understand. Eddie isn’t…” “SHUT UP! You should’ve shut your mouth and your legs last night. You see what you have done? You always were a problem F/N. It’s probably why your father killed himself. He couldn’t stand having a daughter like you.” With that last sentence you bolted up to your room and slammed the door. Collapsing on the bed you pulled a pillow close to your face and let out a loud sob. You were pretty sure all of Hawkins could hear you; but they couldn’t care less, to them it was all a joke; you were a joke, you were a mistake and you were not wanted.

Mom drove off down towards the trailer park; god what would Eddie think? What would Wayne think? You’d never be able to face Eddie again, and you know Wayne probably heard the rumors himself but if he was home would your mom even listen to what he had to say? After all she wouldn’t listen to you and your side of the story, but the rest of Hawkins was right no matter what the situation was. You hated this town, hated everything about it, they just gave you more and more reasons to yearn for a life away from here, or maybe no life at all. You’d never make it out of Hawkins, not now; and certainly not after graduation.

You thought of Eddie; would he actually care enough? Your Mom certainly wouldn’t, no one in school would care, the town itself never noticed you until now so this wouldn’t be a big deal if you were no longer there. But Eddie, even though you had the one night and were planning for many more; he would feel the loss. You thought of him and for a moment maybe you could stay and fight this, but you always had to fight alone. You couldn’t force Eddie to fight alongside you for this, he had enough trouble and you just made things worse. It didn’t matter what he said; you knew Eddie is better off without you.

The pool was a mess; leaves, grass and algae rested on the surface making it look like a sickly green color; no one had used it in a long time and mom only filled it up to keep appearances that everything was fine at your household. No one questioned why the pool was vacant all summer and barely tended too. Why would they care? You adjusted the ankle weights that mom kept in her closet for aerobics class, they were a little big on your skinny legs but they had enough weight to do the job. The air was freezing so you knew if the water wasn’t going to do it the hypothermia would for sure. You stood up and glanced around, no one was outside today and no one would be at this hour. Taking a deep breath you jumped into the water and felt yourself sink to the bottom.

You could hear the sound of the water around you, the waves moving above your head and a loud squeaking sound with a whine. You opened your eyes to look above, and a shadow stood by the edge of the pool with its arms flailing around, then you seen it jump near you.

You could feel the water moving and felt two arms wrap around you and begin to make their way down to your legs breaking the weights off. You began to struggle and fight with the person but they held on tighter and began to swim up towards the surface. You felt the air escape your lungs and your throat close around you. You couldn’t see, couldn’t feel, all you could do was hear and the sound you heard was the unmistakable cries of Eddie Munson.

Summary: After the cafeteria incident Robin fills you in on what happened this morning.

Part Five:

You opened the stall to face Robin, she held out her arms to embrace you. You collapsed into her and she nearly fell onto the tile floor. She squeezed you tighter and let you bawl your eyes out. “It’s okay, these assholes here just believe anything.” You sniffled and pulled away, wiping your nose and looking back at her. Her eyes tearful as well, her face contorted with concern. “What have they been saying about me Robin?” She drew in a deep breath that raised her shoulders towards the ceiling.

“Chris McDowell has been telling everyone that last night you came over to his place and that you were giving him a blow job when Eddie came by and once you saw the ecstasy he brought you hailed with him and started having sex in his van right in front of Chris’ house.” You could feel your face burning, your hands clenched so tight you felt your nails draw blood, your teeth clenched that you could hear them cracking. “What!” “Hey I know it’s not true and so does Steve, most people with a brain would dismiss this rumor and know it’s something Chris made up.” “Problem is almost half of Hawkins is without brains it seems because they believe him! And how did he explain the busted nose, black eye and split lip from when I decked him?” “He said Eddie knocked him out when he tried to bring you back inside. Wait you’re the one who gave him the face lift? Can I hug you again because that face of his is pretty beat up. How many times did you hit him?” “Just once.” “Nice!” “Robin serious how am I supposed to go out there now, I’m going to kill Chris.”

Robin braced herself between you and the door, “Listen as much as I would love to see that and I know you can do it. You will probably only make things worse.” “Robin, you know this will get around town right?” “It pretty much already has, I mean I found out before school even started. I was swinging by the store to grab my wallet from my uniform and Keith was telling me about it.” “Oh god Robin my mom will hear about this!” “It’s fine you just explain to her what happened and how Eddie was just trying to help you last night…” “Robin I came home late last night, after I was with Eddie! People probably saw him drive me home because as we can tell Hawkins definitely likes to spy on their citizens.” “So?” “My mom has no idea I was with a guy much less Eddie Munson!” “She doesn’t like Eddie?” “She doesn’t like any guy and I’m sure she’s heard of his reputation; so no definitely not.

Robin puffed out her cheeks as she released a breath, she banged her head against the door and closed her eyes. “Maybe I can say you were with me?” “But it’s too late, if our neighbor Mrs. O’Brian saw Eddie’s van in front of her house and me getting out, my mom is more inclined to believe that over you covering for me.” “So what are you going to do?” You looked over to the large mirror over the sinks; your face had already showed signs of being out late and now adding the crying to the mix; you looked like an old spinster teacher. You just wanted to go home, actually you wanted to go home with Eddie and have him hold you close while you cried and watched an alien creature pursue Kurt Russel. “I’m just going to leave and try and get some sleep.” “Leave? You sure they’ll let you?” “Maybe I can say I need to visit the clinic in Indianapolis, they may believe that.”

The walk to the main office was unbearable; the lunch bell had run to dismiss the student body into the hallway, they all stared and whispered amongst themselves as you approached. You concealed your face under your mess of hair as best as you could and tried to cover your ears but the conversations were so loud.

“Look at her, god she and her freak boyfriend are so disgusting.”

“Figures Munson would end up with a junkie, but damn poor Chris. That guy is such a good dude. She could’ve at least let him finish.”

“I told you she was trouble, wanted all the attention on her when she could. Using her body as a means to get what she wants. So pathetic.”

“Do you think she and Munson will have a freak baby?” “With three heads?” “Probably; that freak would love the shit out of that thing because it would resemble something from his weird books.”

That probably would be true; not because it would be like a fantasy character but because Eddie would love his child no matter what they looked like. Three heads, no arms, anything; he was just a good guy, which is more than you could say for the population of Hawkins High.

You finally reached the door when a tug at your arm pulled you away. Eddie looked at you urgently, his eyes bright red; meaning he was either stoned again or he had been crying.m, you weren’t sure which. “Can I talk to you for a minute?” “Not right now Eddie, I need to go home?” “What’s wrong?” You looked up at him and gestured towards the crowd, some of whom had formed a small circle around the two of you. “Who gives a fuck what these idiots think. You can’t run away when things get difficult like this F/N.” “I can, and that’s what I’m doing. I just want to go home and get some rest before the Calvary comes home.” “What’s wrong do you mean?” “Eddie my mom is one thousand percent going to hear about this. She’s going to learn all she can about you and that will be the end of it. No more us, no dates no nothing.” “Well how about I meet her and let her get to know me, I’m sure she’ll…” “No! Eddie this whole thing was a mistake.”

Eddie backed himself against the wall. He crossed his arms over his chest and took in a huge breath. “What do you mean? Like everything including… me?” You sighed, looking at Eddie suddenly so vulnerable and weak was not anything on you expected to see. “Yes. I shouldn’t have gone to your place, I shouldn’t have gone to the party, and I shouldn’t have… shouldn’t have…” You looked at his face and down to his lips, he tightened them together to hide the fullness of them and looked down to his feet. “Gotcha. You regret the whole decision. That’s fair, like I said…” he choked on the air he sucked in, “You deserve the best. And that never was me.” “Can you please let me go?” He nodded and stepped aside to let you in the office.

Surprisingly the staff didn’t even ask why you wanted to leave, they never called your mom at the mayor’s office and never asked for a written excuse. They just let you go. They wished you to feel better but even you could tell their tone wasn’t sincere like the time you were throwing up in class last year; they were glad to have you leave. When you walked back into the hall it was virtually empty besides one person. “You need a ride home at least? I can skip biology today. I’ve dissected a frog enough times.” His smile was soft but definitely forced. Part of you wanted to say no and the other part knew this would be the last time you’d see him and you didn’t want things to end like they were. You nodded as Eddie walked off to the parking lot.

He never turned the radio on, never looked at you, and never said a word. Compared to last night you would never guess you two had been close at all; you were almost like strangers rather than potential boyfriend and girlfriend. Would Eddie even have nursed the idea of being a boyfriend, especially a boyfriend to you? You knew Eddie wasn’t a virgin or inexperienced in the world of women; just like this rumor, word had gotten around, but also you heard his friends from Corroded Coffin talk about the girls who’d seen them perform at The Hideout that he’d hooked up with. Sex he could do, but relationships, was that even something he’d want?

When he pulled up to your house you glanced over to the driveway; thankfully the station wagon was not there yet. Mom definitely hadn’t been informed and you could go to your room without the interrogation. You sat still for a moment, never reaching for the door handle and occasionally glancing towards Eddie who also refused to move, the silence deafening now and you were about to burst if one of you didn’t say anything. “Don’t you want to get inside?” “I’m sorry.” He looked back to you, his eyes still red but wet now. Had he been crying the whole time he was driving you home? “I’m sorry I led you on Eddie. I do like you, and I wish I could explain it all to you but I can’t. It’s just best we end it before things get worse for you.”

“F/N. I play in a heavy metal band, I have longer hair than you do, I have a Dungeons and Dragons club which I designed the shirts for, I read the Lord of The Rings, I did magic as a kid, my favorite movie is The Black Cauldron and I have to deal drugs to help my uncle pay the bills but he doesn’t know about it.” You wiped your nose and looked down at your feet, Eddie reached out and lifted your chin to look at him again. “My life isn’t exactly easy; and never was. But you would’ve never made it worse. If anything you may have been the best thing that ever happened to me.” You leaned over and planted a kiss on him, it wasn’t passionate, or playful; but more of a deep yearning kiss. Your lips never parted and neither did his, you felt your tears mix together at the corners of your mouths adding a saltiness to the kiss. You broke the kiss and opened the door in one quick movement. “Goodbye Eddie.” You cried as you sprinted up to the door.

Eddie Munson + Reader

*Warning* mention of the assault on the reader. Eddie is still a soft cute and protective boyfriend.

Summary: After a horrific experience at the Halloween party you find yourself with Eddie Munson and now you get to hear the aftermath of the events in school.

Part Four:

You woke up, Eddie’s arms wrapping you in a tight embrace on the couch; the kissing turned to lazy cuddles and eventually you felt so worn out you just passed out in his arms. Apparently he was beat too because you heard a soft snoring coming from him. You couldn’t help but snicker because he sounded like your old dog Peanut, and you nestled your face in Eddie’s chest looking at the clock on the wall by the kitchen.

“Shit! Eddie!” You shook his shoulder but he didn’t move. “Eddie!” Another shake and nothing. You slap his chest and he jumps up with a groan and holds the spot where you made contact. “Damn no wonder McDowell had a busted lip. You pack a wallop.” “No time to discuss my fighting skills; it’s after 2 and I needed to be home an hour ago!” “Shit!” He jumped up and threw on his coat while you ran into the bathroom to change out of his clothes and into the dress. You looked at the shirt one last time and then tucked it into your bag. If mom forbade you from seeing Eddie at least you could have something to remember him by.

Just as Eddie was leading you out the door Wayne showed up. “Fuck, I’m dead.” “Why?” “Wayne doesn’t want me to have girls over and now this, I’m toast.” You adjust your dress to hide the exposed flesh but it was no use; the entire gown showed more than you could conceal. “Edward, what did I tell you?” “Uncle Wayne it’s not what you think. I was taking her home now I swear; right F/N?” You nodded as Eddie opened the door to let you in the van, Wayne escorted Eddie to the side and began to lecture him, his voice never raised thankfully but you could see his expression go from annoyed to concerned as he looked back to you. Obviously Eddie told him the incident and why you were there. Safe to say you were not going to be allowed to see Eddie either way; Wayne didn’t like him having girls over and your mom didn’t approve of you dating period.

Eddie opened the door to the driver’s side and started the van, it creaked and groaned to life this time which made Eddie frustrated; he beat the dash with his fist as the winding sound stopped. “It’s just needing a little push sometimes, you know?” You nodded, Eddie drove off. “So where do you live?” “Over on old Cherry street. Just at the end of the road.” “Okay. Nice area.” You nodded, to you it was a dump but compared to where Eddie lived now it was probably a great spot. “Well don’t worry, I’ll have you home soon enough. I can explain to your mom…” “No!” Eddie stopped and pressed his lips together to silence himself. “Okay. I will just drop you off at your place unless you’d rather I drop you off down the street and drive off?” “The last option would probably be best.” “Mom is kinda strict?” “That and like I said I was supposed to be home a while ago; I’m surprised she hasn’t sent Hawkins finest to find me.” “Not like they could, those clowns who work there know nothing.” “Hopper does.” “He’s the only one, the rest are a joke.”

Eddie parked the car down the road and sat for a moment while you grabbed your bag, he looked over at you expectantly. “What?” “Nothing, um have a good night?” You smiled and pulled him close to you again for another kiss; it was a brief chaste peck, nothing passionate or fiery. Eddie leaned forward trying to get another taste; you pulled away and opened the door. “That’s all for tonight Munson. If I’m not reading the morning I’ll see you in sixth period.” “What about lunch?” “What about it?” “Would you like to sit with us? It beats sitting by yourself in the corner and balancing a tray on a your lap.” “If your friends don’t mind.” “They have to listen to their leader.” You snickered, “Eddie you make it sound like a cult.” “Oh it is, but we don’t serve Kool-Aid.” You covered your mouth to hide the cackle. “You’re a nut Eddie Munson.” “Yes, and you like me.” “I do. Goodnight.” You pecked him on the tip of his nose right where a freckle sat. He smiled and drove off as quietly as he could.

“I was so terrified! Do you know what I’ve been thinking? I thought maybe you had been murdered or drugged lying in a basement somewhere.” “Mom I’m fine, stop watching America’s most wanted and get some sleep.” “Thankfully I can now. Don’t ever do that again, where were you.” “With a friend.” “Who? Do I know her?” “Um, I don’t know.” “As long as it’s not a boy. I don’t need to be a grandma just yet F/N. I’m not even forty eight. Let me get some years.” “Mom it’s fine, I’m fine and my friend just wanted to hang out.” “How was the party?” “We left early, it was a dud. So we went back to their place and watched some movies, then I feel asleep. I just forgot to call.” “Always call! Did they drive you here?” “Yes, they already left because they have a curfew, their parent was sleeping and didn’t want to drive me back.” “Well that’s irresponsible but at least your friend was a good one.” You nodded and went upstairs to your bedroom to get changed into your pajamas; you opted to wear Eddie’s shirt instead, it still smelled of him mixed a little with you. A perfect combination of both. You held the collar to your nose and drifted off to sleep, dreaming of Eddie and kissing him, and other things.

You found it difficult to stay awake in the first three classes, your eyes fluttered open and closed so much, you almost passed out during the science movie being shown on Cells. By fourth period a wonderful site greeted you, Eddie danced through a crowd holding two styrofoam cups above everyone’s heads and headed over to you. He handed you one and sipped the other for himself. “Eddie you’re an angel.” “Don’t let that get around sweetheart I’ve got a reputation to uphold.” “Oh I’m sorry.” “I brought some cream and sugar if you need it or did you want me to grab you some tea?” “No this is fine, I need the hard stuff today.” “Oh needing hard stuff huh?” You punched his ribs lightly which he winced at. “We seriously need to talk about your strength here Wonder Woman. Seriously no more play punches.” “Real punches then?” “Absolutely not, I’ve seen the results from that too.” “Then what?” “Hm, maybe a kiss?” You smiled and leaned in when the bell rang. “Shit I have to get to class, big test.” “Rain check?” “Maybe at lunch, if you’re up for it.” “Kissing and the Drums of Fire mountain? Sounds like a great time.” “I have no clue what the other thing is but whatever you say.”

Walking into Mr. Heart’s Geometry class you heard the murmurs, it wasn’t anything noticeable earlier but walking into the room after the class started the stares pierced through your soul. A group of girls blocked their whispers with their hands as they stared, you just dropped your books on the desk and looked ahead, when you heard John behind you cough and in between the unmistakable “slut.” You turned to him as he played off the phrase as a tickle in his throat. The class carried on but you kept glancing at the other students, they looked at you with such disgust and hatred. They’d never paid any attention to you before but apparently being seen with Eddie brought a new level of curiosity to them. You drew in a breath and carried on with filling out the bubbles on the test sheet.

The cafeteria was loud and ablaze with conversation as you approached it, but as soon as you entered the whole room went quiet. You glanced over towards Eddie’s table, he was already there and oblivious to why the room had suddenly fallen silent, one of his friends nudged him as he turned to face you. A smile lit up his face, then the chanting started, and Eddie’s smile faded away.

“SLUT, SLUT, SLUT, SLUT, SLUT!”

They pounded on their tables and you could hear the flatware shaking on the surface giving it all a nice percussion. Eddie walked away from his table and ran over to you which is when the chanting changed again.

“FREAK, FREAK, FREAK, FREAK!”

Eddie could handle the chants as he had for years and you knew this, but you had always been a shadow in Hawkins, just there in the back and always ignored. To be seen and in such a disgusting way made you want to cry. And that’s exactly what was happening. You felt the tears falling from your cheeks and down your neck. Eddie wrapped his arms around you, which while it felt nice and soothing, it also felt suffocating. You couldn’t be here, you couldn’t be with him. You shoved his arms off you and made a break for the restrooms nearby.

“Serves her right, that fucking bitch.”

You sat on the toilet, knees curled to your chest and fought the tears. When you heard someone come in. “L/N?” It was Robin, you glanced under the door to the stall and seen her red converse tapping their toes. “C’mon there’s something you need to know.”

You’re Safe with Me

Eddie Munson + Reader

*Warning* discussions of attempted sexual assault and rape, suicidal thoughts and strong language. Strangers, to friends to eventual lovers. Soft fluffy Eddie Munson.

Summary: Eddie decides to find a way to cheer you up with some horror movies and candy.

Part Three:

You looked at the selection but it was picked over by kids and parents who decided to stay home tonight to watch something scary to fit the mood. Your eyes fell on a few options, Prom Night, My Bloody Valentine, The Shining and The Exorcist; the later one you never could finish because you always found yourself falling asleep and missing the majority of the movie.

“Anything catching your eye?” You held the options out for Eddie to pine over himself, he looked at them with his tongue sticking out of the corner of his mouth. Your seen him doing that when he was working his campaigns or drawing a demon on his notebook; it was something you did occasionally as well but with you it looked goofy, with Eddie it was kind of cute.

“Well I’m up for anything, just so long as you don’t get too scared.” “I’ll have you know Munson I have seen four of these by myself and never had a single nightmare!” He gave you that cocky smile again and put his hands behind his back dancing in place. “Oh yeah? Even the exorcist huh? No fleeing to a church or begging for forgiveness from the lord?” “Nope, I actually find that one to be a bit slow and so is the shining. Everyone gets so scared but it’s not even remotely terrifying. I like the style and cinematography but they’re not the most terrifying movie I’ve seen.” His eyebrows raised in curiosity; “What would be the most terrifying movie you’ve ever seen?” “I haven’t found one that’s actually scared me, so perhaps you could make a better selection.” “But it’s your choice remember.” “Munson, pick out a few movies for me while I run to the ladies room. When I come back I’ll look them over.” He nodded and began to excavate the collection of tapes.

You stared at yourself in the mirror, streaks of mascara and eyeliner had run down your face, the glossy gold eyeshadow on your cheeks was patchy and not as defined as it had been earlier. You took a paper towel and soaked it to rub off the makeup. Slowly revealing your face as it usually looked. Red and blotchy from the acne scars, the pale eyes that you usually rimmed with black liner and the pale chapped lips that were so small they were barely without the lipstick you had on tonight. You reached in your bag and touched up your face to look more like your usual self, tugging the pants Eddie had given you higher up around your waist to keep them from falling. You looked back to face the reflection again; it wasn’t anything spectacular but at least you looked like you again.

When you walked out you saw Eddie sprawled on the ground like a child as he looked at his lineup of films. He leaned against his arm as he pondered the selection, unaware he was being watched. He looked up and smiled at you. “I think I have a few options you might like.” You took a spot next to him, his body was hot next to yours, somehow he had worked up a sweat just looking at the movies. You ignored the heat radiating off him and looked at the tapes. American Werewolf in London, Invasion of the Body Snatchers, The Fog, The Evil Dead, Prom Night, Phantasm and The Thing.

All good, all movies you had seen, and just straight up blood and gore for some. “Can we pick more than one?” Eddie smiled “Absolutely, pick whatever you want, you need some cheering up and I’m just here for the popcorn.” You grabbed the entire collection and ran to the counter. “Hey now! I assumed you meant three!” Eddie laughed and followed after you; Robin turned around and began to scan the tapes for you both, her eyes darted from you to Eddie and back to the tapes a couple times. She looked back towards Steve who was still trying to place labels on the covers.

“So big night for you two huh?” You looked at her, it wasn’t a judgemental comment just idle curiosity, after all while you and Eddie hadn’t been together in an official capacity there was still some sort of connection between you that was not yet defined. “And obviously going to be a rather disgusting one at that.” Robin’s face grimaced as she seen the creature on the back of the Thing. You laughed and threw Eddie a look, he wasn’t paying much attention to you, his eyes were fixed on the candy selection as he tried to decide what he wanted. “He’s just cheery me up. Had a bit of a rough night.” “Did you hear about Chris’ party?” You hesitated as Robin placed the tales in a bag and waited on Eddie to make up his mind. “About the party itself or didn’t something else happen?” Robin smiled and leaned over just for you to hear, “Kate came in and told us he was planning something to the extent of a big orgy and was trying to see how many of his friend could get with her. She heard about it and spread the word. By this time tomorrow Chris McDowell will no longer be the most popular guy in Hawkins.” “Because that title is mine.” Steve chirped in, still focused on his task but apparently aware of the customers.

“What candy do you want L/N? I’m a Reese’s pieces guy myself, do you want M&M’s, milk duds, snow caps, dots, Mike & Ikes, Good and Plenty…” “I’ll have peanut M&M’s and milk duds Eddie.” “Interesting.” He placed the selection along with a bag of popcorn. Robin rang them up and gave you the total, Eddie had a membership card to get the movies and paid the $7.50 for the snacks. “You two have a good night.” “You too.” You said as the two carried on with their work. Eddie opened your door again and handed you the bag.

“Okay, you ready?” You looked at the clock on the dash, 8:30, as far as mom knew you were going to be out until 10 or 11 at the latest. Just so long as you got home before midnight she was fine with it. “You sure it’s okay if I come over?” “No it’s cool. My uncle is at work now until around 3 so it would just be us. You think you can handle being alone with the freak that long?” “I’m presently alone with you right now, and I have to be home by 11. So one movie or two.” “Sounds good.” You laughed and glanced back towards the video store, Robin and Steve were laughing as they cleaned up Eddie’s mess and began to close the store. “I might be able to call my mom and see if I can stay out with a friend for a bit longer, maybe 12 at the latest.” You smiled as Eddie roared out of the parking lot to head back to his trailer.

You’d never set foot in these parts of Hawkins but you didn’t have a fear about it. You probably should be worried because Eddie was taking you somewhere he knew but you didn’t, yet so far he was probably the most decent man you ever been near. He led you into the trailer and began to pick up a few clothes and dishes that were strewn around the room, it was messy and smelled of stale cigarettes. Smaller than your living room at home and even your mom’s bedroom, but it was cozy. Eddie ran back to the bedroom and brought out a pair of men’s boxers; you glared back at him. “I’m I figured these would fit better than my pants and I thought you would rather wear these than that. Unless you want to keep my jeans?” “The jeans are fine, thank you. I could use a belt though if you have an extra one?” He ran to the room and came back with a black leather belt that had an odd clip to hold it.

“Are those… handcuffs?” He laughed, “Yeah, I used to be into magic so I had them lying around; cheaper than buying a new belt you know.” “Eddie the magnificent! Has a nice ring to it, you still know any tricks today?” “Nothing of merit, and it’s kind of dorky.” “Eddie you play Dungeons and Dragons, and read the Lord of The Rings; you’re already a bit of a dork.” “Yes but I’m a sexy dork; magic doesn’t make you sexy.” “You underestimate yourself Munson.” You were amazed how coolly you said it. He smiled and made his way over to the microwave as you adjusted the belt on the jeans.

“You want your M&M’s mixed in the popcorn or would you just like it straight?” “Good question, I’ve never put them in the popcorn before but you can add it in there if you want.” He smiled and poured a small amount in the bowl and gave it to you before dumping the entire bag of Reese’s pieces in his and going to put one of the tapes in. You looked at the slight peak of boxers showing out of his jeans, averting your eyes to one of the hats on the wall. “Wow, must like baseball huh?” “My uncle Wayne is the fan, he used to play baseball and was hoping to get into the minor leagues.” “Really?” “Yeah then he had an accident and couldn’t play anymore. But you ask him anything about baseball and he knows it.” “What about you?” “I’m into music and art. You know the nerdy things.” “That’s not nerdy, it’s just creative. And I’ve seen those things you draw in class and heard you play your guitar. You’re a talented guy yourself Eddie.” He stood up and walked over to the sofa taking the spot beside you, resting the bowl of popcorn onto his lap and nestling into the cushions. “Not enough to get out of Hawkins.”

“Where would you like to go?” “I’d love to play the Whiskey A Go Go in LA, maybe Maddison Square garden, shredding my guitar and making my name.” “What else?” “What else would there be?” “You ever thought about having a family? Or where you would live?” Eddie took a handful of the popcorn in his mouth, the crunch covering the silence. “Have you?” “A little, I mean I don’t think I’ll be able to do much after school, I never really assumed I’d have a great career. Kids? Once upon a time I liked the idea of it and same with marriage; but realistically I wont make it that far. I’m lucky if I make it to twenty.” “How so?” “I just don’t feel there’s much of a life for me.”

Eddie paused and a knowing look crept onto his face, he set the bowl of popcorn on the coffee table and curled his right leg on the couch before scooting closer to you. “What do you mean?” “Eddie, I know my circumstances and they’re not great. What’s the point of it?” “Don’t say that. I’m sure things are not as bad as you think they are right now.” “Eddie Chris McDowell tried to assault me tonight. Everyone in school will hear about this tomorrow and I’m going to be the town slut after this.” “He didn’t do anything, and I know that. Robin said that Kate found out what he was intending so I’m sure Chris will be the one everyone will be talking about not you.”

You glanced at the tv, the ghosts on the ship coming out to slowly take one victim at a time. Out of the corner of your eye you saw Eddie still staring at you. “F/N, you know I am here if you want to talk.” “Eddie listen you are really sweet for this. The movies, the ride, the clothes; I mean it’s all been very sweet. But would you have spoken to me if you didn’t see the circumstances that you found me in?” He began to play with a lock of his hair, twisting it between his fingers and splitting it in half. “I know who you are L/N. I always sit near you and always find myself… looking at you when your nose is deep in a book. You like to read gothic horror stories like Edgar Allen Poe or H.P Lovecraft. And you always smell like this sweet floral perfume, I’ve never smelled anything like that but it’s probably my favorite smell in the world. You like to drink tea not coffee and you sneak cigarettes when you think no one is looking.” “But would you talk to me or do any of this?”

Eddie brought his face dangerously close to yours, his voice lowered to a whisper. “I have been trying to work up the courage to ask you out on a date for god knows how long, mind you this wasn’t exactly how I imagined the situation would be. I mean I was hoping you would be at that party so I could maybe get the chance to talk to you.” He smiled and took in a deep breath, his hands taking yours. “Then you ran into me and yeah that wasn’t ideal.” You shook your head and wiped a stray tear from the corner of your eye. “But I knew you needed someone, I didn’t want to see you hurt like this so I’ve been doing my best to cheer you up. I guess I’m pretty lousy at this huh?” “No you’re a natural.”

He stopped the tape and got up to take it out, you followed him over to the tv and stood between the two. “Listen Eddie, back at the video store. When we were in the car and you said you thought I was pretty…” A blush began to form on the tip of his nose, making his freckles pop and him looking like a strawberry. “Did you, I mean were you?” He looked up with those big brown eyes under a mop of curly bangs. “Were you wanting to kiss me?” He hesitated and put the tape back in its case before placing another in the player.

“Honestly? Yes.” You felt your heartbeat in your stomach, drew in a sharp breath and began to inch closer to Eddie’s face. “But I can’t.” You pulled back, the space between you now wide enough for another person. “Oh. Why not?” “Because you deserve better than this.” “Better than you, you mean?” “A little, but also after what happened to you I didn’t think it was right to try and make a move on you.” “Really?” “Yeah, you deserve to be treated better than what you were tonight, you should decide if a man kisses you or takes you out or…”

You pulled his face to yours and planted your lips on his for a deep kiss; he tensed up at first before his body softened and he pulled you closer to him, his tongue darting around your mouth and his lips soft like rose petals. You pulled away and he released you; both your faces were bright red and you’re out of breath.

“What was that?” “You said I should decide what happened to me, so I was just taking the matter into my own hands.” “You mean, you wanted me to kiss you?” “Honestly Eddie I think you’re the only guy I’ve ever wanted to kiss me. You think you want to try it again?” “Hell yes!” He wrapped you in his arms and carried you over to the sofa, the movies and the earlier events long forgotten between the two of you. All you wanted was to have Eddie kissing you until daybreak, and he would happily take that challenge.

Eddie Munson + reader.

*Warning* mentions of a sexual assault and rape, and language. Soft fluffy, and dorky Eddie; stranger to friends to eventual lovers.

Summary: you score an invitation to the biggest Halloween party of the year but things don’t exactly go as you planned. Especially when Eddie Munson shows up.

Part Two:

Eddie’s van screeched to a haul in front of the family video; you looked through the windshield inside to See Steve Harrington and Robin Buckley from school inside sorting through a pile of tapes and having a conversation. You started to try and fix your hair a little to look more presentable when Eddie tapped your shoulder.

“What are you doing?”

“I just, I probably look like shit, I don’t want to encounter these two and give them more gossip for the school to talk about.” That comment was more at Steve than Robin, she was pretty nice to you and never really made any rude remarks but you recall Steve was always a bit full of himself at times and used to make fun of you. While he hadn’t done so in a while it wasn’t too presumptuous to assume he would start again.

“Well you’re going to be walking in with the school freak to rent a movie so I think how you look presently will not matter much.”

“I mean I’m wearing your clothes and my hair is messy! It looks like we’ve been fucking and you’re taking me here for something in between all the sex.” You rolled your eyes but Eddie raised his eyebrows in a playful manner. He leaned over to you and his tone softened.

“I mean it is a little odd but Robin will not say a word and honestly Steve isn’t the jerk people think he is; Henderson has told me he’s a great guy so he’s not going to say anything about this.”

“No but it will look like we’re together, like we’ve been fooling around and now we’re going to pick up Texas Chainsaw Massacre or something to try and cool things off!”

Eddie leaned his head against the seat and closed his eyes, he pinched them with his fingers and let out a slight groan. “Do you want to change back into the dress? I mean I can head in while you get dressed and then you can come in like that and act as though we’ve just met up or something. You wouldn’t have them say anything and then we can either go to your place or mine and you can get changed.”

“Your place?” Your head was spinning like a globe, that dress really did need to be torched. First Chris decided to try and take advantage of you when he saw the hint of cleavage and leg at his home, and now Eddie Munson wants to take you back to his place.

Eddie opened his eyes and his face burned red; “Oh no, no, no! I didn’t mean like… you know that. I mean we can go to your home and watch some movies if you’d like or if that’s your thing I guess we could… I mean I don’t want to take you to The Hideout looking like that or even like this!” He gestured to the outfit presently covering your body and to your face which still had the glossy makeup from the costume. “You look great don’t get me wrong, you always look so pretty but…” He flinched and held his hands over his face muffling his groans and signs. “I’m really making a good impression on you huh?” He turned to face you with his face still buried under his hands, his fingers parted slightly to reveal a hint of those soft brown eyes.

You giggled and removed his hands from his face. There was a long pause; you just stared into his eyes while he looked back at you. In the movies this would be about the time where the guy leans in and kisses the girl; you waited to see if Eddie would take the bait. His eyes darted momentarily towards your lips and back to your eyes. You drew in a small breath and realized you were still holding his hands in yours. You began to trace small circles along his thumb which made him draw back and focus on the building in front. You still looked at him, expecting him to throw caution to the wind and have his way with you or kiss you; with Chris you wanted no part after you heard his plans for the evening, but if Eddie made a move on you, you knew you wouldn’t want to stop him.

“I’m sorry I gave you the wrong impression about this.” He looked back again, the expression no longer a sultry stare but back to his sweet goofy smile. “I just wanted to make sure you were okay you know?” He rubbed his palms on his thighs and let out a huff of breath. “I guess you have had a pretty rough night and spending it with me to watch something and take your mind off it all just doesn’t seem right. I’m really sorry about that.”

“No Eddie, it’s not that I wouldn’t want to spend time with you. It’s just…” you thought about how the evening events unfolded, you never expected to be in Eddie Munson’s van wearing his clothes, and some part of you hoping he’d actually use this opportunity to get with you. You never shoved Eddie away when he fell asleep on your shoulder in algebra, never yelled at him for peaking over your shoulder for answers, never threw his stuff away when he dumped a pile of it that landed on your desk while you were trying to read; you just smiled and let it go. He was just Eddie and you didn’t mind if he invaded your space because deep down you knew he wouldn’t do it if he knew it bothered you. Eddie was aware of what made you uncomfortable and what made you feel safe even without ever saying a word, he just understood you better than anyone.

“Tonight just has been a lot. I never thought anything like what happened would ever have happened. I was happy you showed up when you did and I’m happy you’re here right now because I’d hate to be alone and dealing with this.” He glanced over at you, the smile on his face a cocky little one that you’d see him doing when he pulled a good prank on Mr. Abram’s the History teacher; Eddie was usually playing some harmless joke on teachers when they gave him a hard time, the most recent you saw was when a letter arrived for Abram’s and he abruptly left the class to go to the office. Eddie locked the door and took over class giving a little lesson on the history of rock and roll and the founding of metal. Most of this kids just rolled their eyes and laughed at his stupidity, you however were in awe at his cool suavity and confidence as he carried on his lesson. When the doorknob jiggled he unlocked it and took his seat beside you looking ahead and smiling. You wanted to ask Eddie more about the lesson he had in mind but you never had the courage to speak to him.

“I can go back and finish McDowell if you’d like? Though you seem to have done a good job yourself before I showed up.” He nudged your jaw with his fist playfully. “Yeah, I can handle myself I guess. But it sucks when you have no one to turn to during these things, you know?” Eddie nodded; while Eddie only had his uncle you only had your mom. Eddie lost his mother as a kid and you remember how torn up he was when it happened, Eddie was older then you but it was hard to ignore the kid on the playground at recess who decided to run behind the jungle gym to smoke. You lost your dad a few years after that and while you were just entering your teen years the loss aged you a little and you suddenly took on the appearance of a thirty year old. Everyone in your life who you had as friends didn’t know what to say or what to do so they just stopped talking to you. You were the school loner and Eddie was the school freak; the ideal pair.

“What do you want to do L/N?” You hesitated; in a perfect world where nothing else happened, you’d ask Eddie to kiss you right now, you’d ask him to seize his moment and just let it happen. But you didn’t know if even Eddie wanted to do that with you; he may have said you were pretty earlier but that’s not enough to assume he wanted to kiss you.

“We can head inside, I get to pick the movie though and we’ll go back to your place because I don’t want my mom to know what happened tonight. Just a couple hours Munson.” You smiled and hoped it hid the pain of longing you felt inside. Eddie opened his door and ran around to your side opening yours and offering a hand like you were a princess in a carriage arriving at a ball. “It’s a date.” His face grew pale when he heard himself say it, you just smiled and headed in to check out the selection of horror movies, oblivious to Eddie’s scolding of himself as he followed behind you.

Summary: you score an invitation to the biggest Halloween party of the year but things don’t exactly go as you planned. Especially when Eddie Munson shows up.

Part One:

You scowl at the mirror. No matter what you couldn’t get the hair right; you spent the last three hours trying to look like Leia in Star Wars but your hair was too thin even with pounds of aqua net and mousse.

“Fuck it. I guess I can go as Sigourney in Ghostbusters.”

You always had a backup costume for Halloween. The red dress fit perfectly if not a little revealing. You wished the hair for Leia worked better but you could mess with it to look like a good perm and it would work.

“That’s not what you planned was it?”

Mom was not thrilled with the plans either but you told her you wanted to go to the party looking vastly different from how you typically look. Your normal attire of baggy band tees, flannel and ripped jeans traded out for a glam look straight from a sci fi movie. And it just so happened you picked two of the characters you seen in Chris McDowell’s locker.

Everyone in school was abuzz about the party at his parent’s house, a costume party with no chaperones, booze, and of course drugs to keep everyone happy. You secured a invite because you and Chris shared a study hall; though he was admittedly talking with Katie Dugan about the topic but once you and Eddie Munson perked up to hear he extended an invitation to you both.

While that’s not exactly the way you’d hoped Chris would notice you, it was still enough to fill your mind with all these wonderful scenarios where he’d fall madly in love with you at the party. Eddie didn’t seem too concerned with attending but Chris snagged him by the door whispering something about needing him to bring the supplies to the party. Obviously Eddie was his drug dealer.

You skipped out of the classroom thinking of costumes just like you presently skipped towards his home. The driveway was suspiciously empty and the lights were off on the ground floor. Glancing at your watch you knew you weren’t early because he stated the party started at 7:30, it was presently 7:56. A bit late but not to where the entire party would end.

Holding your breath you knocked at the door and found it open instantly. Chris stood in the doorway, his eyes red from consuming copious amounts of alcohol and the putrid smell coming from his mouth verified that suspicion. He leaned on the doorframe smiling smugly at you.

“Well, looks like I finally have a guest.” His eyes trailed to the base of your dress, his voice dripping with hunger. “Who are you supposed to be?”

“I’m the gatekeeper!” You spun in the gown for him, smiling at the pride of getting a great costume and making a good impression on him.

“Well… I can be the key master for you!”

You pushed past him to the entryway; the room barely lit by anything and the environment oddly cold and uninviting. The music in the distance playing a track from Van Halen 2, food laid out with punch and beer, an empty bowl which you assumed was going to be for the drugs that Eddie would bring.

“So when does everyone arrive?”

“Presently we are the only ones who could be here.”

“Sorry?”

Chris walked past you, his hands grazed you waist and sending a chill down your spine. He lounged on the couch with his legs spread open and his head leaned back against the cushion.

“Everyone else decided to bail; something about the party not being what they expected it to be.”

“What does that mean?”

Chris groaned and shifted in his seat. “I was intending to only invite a few people; mainly Kate because I was hoping to bag a couple minutes with her, and if Munson brought the goods I asked him for; she would be putty in my hands.”

Your stomach knotted at what you were hearing; how could anyone be so disgusting and cruel to score an evening in bed with someone. What happened to just asking a girl on a date and letting things happen naturally?

“I think I might go too.”

You made your way to the door but Chris slipped away from the sofa and slammed the door before you could get out. He placed his body between you and the door, the look in his eyes hungry with lust. That stare alone sent a shiver down your spine and chilled your blood.

“Let me go Chris, please.”

“I mean I never noticed you before; always thought you to be a lesbian honestly. But…” he glanced at you cleavage that you now wished were hidden under the Kiss shirt you had on your bed. “Damn if I’d known that was happening under all those clothes, I’d have had my way with you ages ago.”

Before you could fire back a response he grabbed your waist and pulled you into him, his hands reaching into the top of the dress and his lip’s grazing your neck. You felt a scream build in your throat but in that moment you could not move; was this actually happening? Was this a nightmare? His hand began to make its way down the front of your dress to your panties. He cupped the mound between your legs when suddenly you snapped back.

You balled your hand into a fist and swung at his face smacking him straight on the jaw, the cracked echoed in the empty room. You stood there shaking and your fist still held in a fighting stance,You loosened it and seen the blood on the tips of the knuckles; unsure whether it was yours or his. You felt for the doorknob behind you and opened it walking backwards staring at the monster on the floor.

“Hey, hey, hey!” You crashed into a massive wall of a man and turned around to see Eddie Munson standing there. Eddie backed away from you, his hands held up in defense and his face frightened. He hadn’t seen Chris but he didn’t want any trouble. You looked at him and the familiarity of his presence; before you knew it you crashed your body back into his crying and arms gripping his torso in a tight embrace. It wasn’t that it was necessarily Eddie Munson; it was that someone had just turned up and now you could leave.

“Woah, L/N I had no idea you were a coward. The Halloween decorations get to you?” It wasn’t a mockery of fear but genuine concern, Eddie rubbed the small of your back like a parent does to a child who had a bad dream coming to them for comfort; he had no idea what happened but he was exactly who you needed.

“You bitch!” You and Eddie turned to see Chris stumble to his feet, his nose bleeding profusely and a slice in his lower lip from where he had clenched his teeth down before you’d punched him. Eddie released you from his arms and instantly put himself between you and Chris.

“Out of my way Munson! This doesn’t concern you!”

“Seeing as I’m here now, I’d say it does!”

“Fuck off freak! This is between me and her; just drop off the shit I asked for and I’ll let you go.”

You looked down to Eddie’s hand, he had a small bag with white pills in them, he slid them back into his pocket and then brought himself beside you. His arm draped over your shoulder and he tugged you closer to him.

“I think we will be going. Have fun McDowell, sounds like it’s going to be a real rager. They will hear about this one for decades.”

“Figures you freaks would stick together.”

“Fuck you and your tiny dick!” You finally screeched at him walking off in a huff, your face burned red with anger and embarrassment because you knew there was a better comeback in you than that but the events of the evening made your head swim. Still with what was said Chris’ face dropped and he ran back into the house in a drunken stumble, while Eddie howled with laughter. He turned to face you noticing the empty spot beside him and looked back to see you now halfway down the sidewalk.

“Hey! Wait a minute!!”

You never expected to see Eddie running around the corner to you, he was out of breath from laughing and sprinting to catch up. You tug the top of your dress to conceal your breast and glance back at the pavement.

“Here.” Eddie removed his coat and drapes it over your shoulders. “Do you need a ride home?” You nod as he walks you over to his van. He offers you a hand to help you up into the seat but you reject it. He doesn’t take it too personally and laughs it off as he gets into the driver’s side. The van reeks of stale beer, pot, Old spice , cigarettes, Mountain Dew and a sweet scent of cherries. Eddie turned the ignition and the radio blasted Crazy Train.

You smiled but Eddie began to turn the volume down. “Sorry about that, helps me stay awake. And keeps me from going crazy sometimes, you know?” You giggled and turned the dial back up to a slightly louder tone but nowhere near what he had it set to. “It’s a good choice; I like your taste Munson.” He smiled proudly at the compliment and adjusted himself in his seat before barreling out of the driveway.

He drove away from Chris’ home and back towards Hawkins. It dawned on you Eddie had no clue where you lived and you honestly didn’t feel like heading back there just yet. He drove towards the remains of the old Mall and pulled the van into a parking spot in before getting out. He opened your door and presented you with a spare pair of jeans and an extra shirt he kept in his van. “Here. I figure you wanted to get changed. We can burn the dress in a sacrifice if you’d like?” Again you giggled and held the pile of clothes to your face to hide the smile. Eddie pushed it down to expose the grin again before flashing his at you then stepped away to give you some privacy. You felt a small flush creep into your cheeks as he walked away; was he being nice because he felt sorry for you? After all how much had you and Eddie spent time together?

You’d had a few classes with him over the past few years, he sat behind you in seventh grade English and was always peeking over your shoulder to get the answers when he forgot to study, he was next to you in Algebra but always fell asleep on your shoulder, he was behind you in history last year and study hall this year. He liked to pick the seat next to you, dumping all his stuff on your desk to doodle designs on his notebook or plot out campaign plans; but you two never conversed, he stayed in his lane and you stayed in yours. You had a lot in common sure, any outsider could tell that; but for some reason you just never broke that ground, until now.

The jeans were a little bit big around the waist and too long but it was better than having that tiny dress on, the shirt however fit like most of your other shirts at home. You spotted the logo of his D&D club he was the head of, perhaps he had a bunch of extra shirts in case new members decided to join. It wasn’t the most popular club so you didn’t see a line of people rounding the corner to play with them.

You peeked out the windshield to see Eddie with a cigarette in his mouth and staring in the opposite direction; nothing intriguing to see but making sure he didn’t see you changing. You beeped the horn and watched him jump in the air and the amber from the cigarette falling down his shirt resulting in a panic dance to shake the ashes off. You couldn’t help but laugh hysterically watching him. He ran back and opened the door, a smiled on his face and his eyes narrowed at you in devilish stare.

“Well I have to get you back now for that!”

“What?”

“I have to scare you at some point tonight.”

“I had no idea you would do that; this one is all your fault.”

He held his hands to his chest as if stabbed by a spear. “Oh how dare you!” You playfully shoved him as he started the car. “So where to?”

You hesitated looking at him, mom would be furious if you came home dressed like this and coming home in Eddie’s van would be a nightmare to explain. “How about you pick? I don’t think I can go home just yet.” Eddie looked a little perplexed but he softened.

“Alright. I can think of a something.” That smile of his so wicked it made your spine shiver for the second time tonight; this time the sensation was welcome.
