{Y/N's POV}
I was smoking a joint in Eddie's bed, with my back leaning against the head of it. I was wearing one of his shirts, and just my thong, and he was in front of me, sitting with his legs crossed as he strummed on his guitar, gently. It's been a week since the semifinals, and for some reason here in Hawkins we got three holiday weeks. We have our handful of homework to do, but nothing serious.
"Okay, time's up. It's time to do numbers Munson." I say as I exhale the smoke out of my lungs. I actually became quite tolerant to it, and I know my limits now. He whined as he looked at me. He was shirtless, his hair down, grey sweatpants on, my stomach turning every time he looked my way in that get up. God, he looked hot in just those pants.
"Seriously, it's only been two days of holidays, and you already want me to do homework." He says to me and I nod at him handing him his joint to take the last puff.
"Because I know you will leave it till last minute, and you have to graduate." I remind him and he sighs as he exhales the smoke out of his lips.
"We are smoking weed, and you want me to do math homework. Do you know how bad that sounds?" He says to me, shooting a smile towards me, showing his teeth and dimples. I blush slightly at the sight and I shake my head at him.
"Maybe it opens up your mind." And he just lets a laugh out of his lips, making me giggle as well. He put his guitar down, to the side of the bed and started crawling towards me. The heater was giving us the right temperature in his room. It was actually quite cold outside, and everyone was excited to see if snow would drop any time soon. Hawkins was already decorated in all Christmas lights and such, making my heart squeeze slightly at the color of it all.
"I prefer... to do something else." He said with a smirk, in all fours as he put his joint away on the ash tray that was on his night table. I shook my head at him, pulling my legs towards me, against my chest, as giggles erupted from my throat.
"We literally just did it." I say to him and he shrugged, still crawling, his face finally in front of mine with a smile on his lips, his dimples are really something.
"As if you don't like it." He says to me and I roll my eyes, holding back a smile. He leaned forward and I felt his lips come in contact with mine, making my heart drop slightly as it started beating as fast as running a marathon. Lately, Eddie's kisses were gentle, soft, and they felt intimate. Super intimate. He wasn't kissing me to keep going and for it to escalate into something else, he sometimes kissed me out of nowhere, surprising me, but I find myself doing it as well every now and then, and it's already too late when I realize what I did.
I just can't get enough of him, and it scares the shit out of me.
He pulled away from the kiss, and looked at me in the eyes, finding myself drowning in his brown doe ones.
"Maybe it's the fact that you are wearing my shirt, which fits you magnificently, while wearing only a thong underneath..." He clarifies and I blush slightly at his remark. If you had told me that I would be in Eddie Munson's trailer, with one of his shirts on, no bra, just a thong, on his bed after a long session of fucking our brains out, I would have probably pretended to puke, or bash your head in for putting me in the same room as 'The Freak'.
Now, it is one of the happiest little moments I ever experienced in my life.
"It's just a shirt Munson..." I shook my head and his eyes diverted to my lips.
"But it's my shirt sweetheart." He said and kissed me again, this time, not as soft as before. I wrapped my arms around his shoulders as he put his hands on my back to take me off the head of the bed and lay down, stretching my legs once more. I felt him get on top of me, our lips still connected, savoring eachother, his hair tickling the side of my face. I felt his hand press onto my left breast, guiding it down, towards the string of my thong and I giggled in between our kisses because of how fast he was going with it.
And our eyes snapped open when we heard the front door click.
"Shit!" Eddie whispered yelled as he peeled himself off me and ran to get his shirt on. I was in a much worse situation. I not only was with just a thong on, but I also was braless with his shirt on. I stood up and quickly ripped the shirt off my body, running towards his desk to get my bra. Before I could reach it, two hands wrapped from behind me, cupping my naked breasts, making me blush intensely as the panic became worse.
"EDDIE!" I whispered yelled at him. We didn't have time for this! If Wayne comes in, we're screwed!
"Shit, sorry." He simply said, ripping his hands off me and I rolled my eyes, quickly grabbing my bra, putting it on and then grabbing my pink long sleeved shirt, throwing it on as well. I looked around and Eddie was already holding my jeans and I grabbed them from him, putting them on as quickly as I could.
"Eddie, you there?" Wayne called and my eyes widened as I rushed to go look into Eddie's closet mirror, fixing my hair and my makeup. Eddie stuttered as he grabbed the messed up sheets and tried tidying them up as quickly as he could.
"Yeah!" He yelled and we locked eyes with eachother, looking around the room, finding it quite clean. Wayne knocked on the door once, twice, three times.
"Can I come in?" I ran to sit on the desk as quickly as I could and Eddie sat on the bed again, grabbing his guitar once more, and we held our breaths as Wayne walked in. He looked at Eddie and back at me.
"Oh, hi Y/N." He greets me and I try to act as though I didn't just suck his Nephew's dick just an hour ago, giving him my sweetest smile to date.
"Hi Wayne." He kept his eyes on mine for a second and a smile broke on his lips, making mine drop slightly. I saw his eyes look down from my face, directed to my collarbone. My eyes slightly widened, and he knew. He definitely knew. He looked at Eddie after our secret conversation with just our glances.
"Just wanted to check on you. I am heading to work now, don't make a mess." He said to him and Eddie nodded. Wayne had spent the day with my Nana, they were planning the Christmas party. I hated that idea, but Nana wanted to spend this festivity with her new boyfriend, and I just couldn't say no to her. Wayne gave a last glance towards me and closed the door behind him. Eddie pretended to play guitar for a few minutes before we heard the front door click again, and Wayne's car starting. Eddie sighed of relief and relaxed onto his guitar.
"Fuck, that was a close one." I closed my eyes and shook my head.
"He knows." I said to him and he looked at me and chuckled at what I just said.
"He doesn't. He is oblivious to these kind of things." He says, and for some reason he didn't sound convinced of his own words either.
"He knows Eddie. He saw the fucking hickey you left on my right collarbone." I say to him and point out at said bruise. I forgot about it, and I didn't pull my shirt up to cover it. His eyes widened and then he sighed, rubbing his eyes in frustration.
"Shit." He said, putting the guitar down. I became nervous as I looked at him, knowing that we had to talk about this someday if Wayne or Laura ever found out.
"So... what do we tell them?" I ask him and he looked at me with a perplexed look on his face. He frowned slightly, and looked down, thinking of his next words, making me even more nervous. What if this is where we become official? At this point, I am scared, terrified, but I wouldn't have the heart in me to say no to him. I don't want to say no. I want to be his, I want him to be mine, but fuck... Why is everything so complicated for me? Why am I still scared of what could happen to me? I gulped, still waiting for his answer and he looked up at me.
"Well, he doesn't know that we know that he knows. We can keep hiding and everything, he won't say anything to us." I frowned at the mix of words, but finally got the hint of it. A sort of deception washed over me because I didn't want him to say that all. I looked at the floor and nodded.
"Yeah, we can do that." I lie to him. Silence engulfed the room. I felt my gut turning uncomfortably, the joint not doing its effect, and I just wanted to get out of there, but I can't be weird about this. I can't just up and leave after he said that, it would be way too obvious. I heard a clear of throat and I looked up to see Eddie, playing with the strings of his guitar again.
"So, Christmas... What are the plans?" He asks and I frown at this.
"I don't know. I don't celebrate it. I actually hate it." I say to him and he looks up at me, wide eyed.
"You don't like Christmas?" He asks as if I were the fucking Grinch. Maybe I was.
"No. I don't have good memories of it." It seems that Eddie's mind clicked and he nodded softly. After everything I told him, he must have done a simple mathematic equation to know that I haven't had the best of holidays as a kid. He perked up, surprising me, making me look at him.
"Okay, then I'm going to make you love it!" He says with a big smile and I frown in disgust at that.
"No, I think I'll pass. I don't even decorate my home Eddie." I say to him and he tsk'd at me, making me look at him with a surprised look in my face.
"That won't do sweetheart. Plus, Laura and Wayne are planning a party, we have to decorate." He says to me and I roll my eyes at that.
"Fuck no. Count me out of that shit." He sighed while looking at me.
"You never decorated a tree before?" He asked and I tried remembering if I ever actually did any of that.
"No. Butlers and maids always did those things for me." I said to him and I got hold of one of his rings that was sitting on the desk. I ran my fingers through the metal cross, trying to think of anything else but my past.
"Wow... Okay... We can go get a tree or something." He offers and for a moment I thought of it, but I can't bear another disappointment for Christmas. I shook my head and looked up at him, as I tried on his ring on my index finger but it was completely loose.
"No, I'm fine like this, I've always been fine like this." I reply to him, trying to convince him of it and he was frowning slightly as if thinking, making me confused at his reaction.
"But you dislike the decorations or..." He asks me and I thought of all the times I watched movies were Christmas was portrayed with red and green colors, white in others, gold in a few details. Candy canes, Wreaths, mistletoe... I looked down as I played with the ring again.
"No... I don't dislike them. I just... don't celebrate it." I said and I looked up at him and he was holding in a smile. I frowned at this and he nodded as if understanding my situation, starting to play once again.
-----------------
"Nance, I think there's something weird going on." I say to her as we walked to my front door after a day out. I actually went to the local shops with her, knowing the mall was going to be infested with people from our school. Nancy had been telling me her issues with Jonathan, and I am not a fan of the holidays myself, but seriously, going away just in time for said festivities, leaving your girlfriend to not experience that with you, it sounds... horrible, knowing Nancy and him spent it together for the past two years.
"Yeah, and Jane also left Mike. He doesn't seem that worried like I do, maybe that's because Will decided to stay longer, knowing he was good with school and all. I mean, it might be that right? Just school stuff..." She says worriedly and I can't help but feel sorry for her. I licked my lips and frowned slightly as I turned the knob on my door.
"Nance, I think you have to talk to Jonathan... If it makes you feel more bad than good then, you have to—" I fully opened the door and the first thing that hit my nostrils was the pungent peppermint smell in the air, cinnamon more specifically. I saw my staircase and realized there was a Christmas wreath going around the tip of the rail to the bottom of it. I looked around with confusion plastered in my face and I slowly walked into the living room, feeling the warmth of the fired up chimney, and I saw another wreath on the top of it, with two Christmas boots hanging off it. I blinked and that's when I saw the huge Christmas tree at the corner of the room, all decorated, with small ornaments, red, white, and golden ones, and it was all lit up in a warm set of lights.
It was beautiful.
I just stood there, mouth agape and then I felt a tap on my shoulder, turning around to see Eddie with a smile on his face, holding the star that would go on top of the tree. I looked behind him and saw Laura, wiping her tears away with her tissue, while Wayne rubbed her shoulders. Nancy was standing next to Robin who was giggling while taking pictures with her camera and Steve was recording with his own Video recorder. I blinked, completely confused and I looked up at Eddie.
"The reason you never liked Christmas, is cause you never gave it a chance. You never spent it with the right people." He explains to me and I just can't take my eyes off his. I could smell the freshly cut pine tree. I could smell freshly baked cookies. I could smell the logs being burnt in the chimney. I could smell his cologne. He smiled and handed me the star, and I held it in my hands, looking down on it. "It needs one last touch."
I looked back towards the tree and I never saw my house this way. It felt warm. It felt like home. I don't know if that feeling was thanks to the decorations or it was the people that were inside of it. I felt two hands turn me around once more, making me face Eddie and he bent down to be able to hug my thighs and he lifted me up making me squeal and everyone else in the room laugh.
"Ay querido, cuidado." I heard my Nana warn him to be careful with me, making me giggle and I put the star on my Christmas tree, for the very first time. Eddie chuckled as he put me down again, looking at Laura, but my eyes just kept looking at him.
"Oh please Laura, I am always careful!" He says to her and he looked at me again, his smile fading slightly as he looked at me, but not because something was wrong. I just felt like we were the only ones in the room right now, blocking everyone's voices, but ours.
"Did you plan this?" I asked him and he nodded at me, feeling my body wanting to melt at the overwhelming feelings I was experiencing at the moment, my eyes burning, knowing the tears were trying to come out of them.
"You okay?" He asked me and I looked at everyone else. Nana was giggling as Wayne tried to light up some red candles on my dining table, while Robin was warming up her butt on the fire as she rubbed it while Steve filmed her on the side, Nancy laughing at the situation. I looked back at Eddie, and smiled widely at him, our eyes connecting, and I wanted to kiss him. I wanted to hug him. I didn't care. I didn't care any longer. I fell, badly. He fucking got me.
"I'm just happy." I replied to him, making him smile at me, his dimples showing off, as his eyes glistened with joy, and he never looked more beautiful to me than in this moment.
I like him. I like him so much.
I like Eddie Munson.
