ready🤭
⚠️Also light smut warning 😏⚠️
____Eddie's POV____
I left her room in the hospital and walked down the hallway to the front."have a nice rest of your day sir!" "You too." I walked out of the front doors and walked to my van. I opened my door and sat down. I started the engine and started driving to school. As i was driving all i could think about was y/n. She didn't deserve what Jason did to her. She doesn't know how badly i just wanna punch him straight in the face. But i have to keep that promise to not attack him. I really really like her- i just want revenge.
___at school__
"So hows y/n?" Mike asks. "She's doing okay, she's gonna be in the hospital for a few weeks." I said walking down the hall. "I can't believe he did that to her- she didn't deserve it!" Yelled mike. "Dude she'll be fine." I said. The bell rings and i head to class. Of course Ms.O'donnell's i need to past this class for the year or i'm gonna be staying back senior year AGAIN.
I walk into class and sit down. I totally forgot Jason was in this class. He walks in a few seconds after me and just stares at me for a few seconds. He looks away and sits down. "Okay class take out your reading books and start reading." I pulled out my book and started reading. A few minutes go by and she says to put our books away and start writing a essay i've been TRYING to work on but all i could think about was y/n. I just always wanna be by her side, she means everything to me.
45 minutes later and class ends."make sure to finish your essay by Friday! It is 30% of your grade!" I leave the room and start walking to my next class, when i was stopped. "Hey! Munson. Wait up." i turn around and see Steve running up to me. "Uh whats up Harrington?" I ask. He never talks to me unless he actually has to. "So i was wondering uhm do you think we should get some flowers and like a get well soon card or something." He says. "Steve. She's not like 50, we're not gonna get her a card. But the flowers sound good. We should head to the store after school." I said. "Sounds good. Meet me by my car after? We can walk to the store then drive to the hospital." I nodded then the bell rang for next period
The day went by extremely fast, i walked outside to find Steves car, as soon as i saw him standing in front of it i walked over."Sup Munson, ready to go?" I nod and we both start walking. "Hey uhm Munson, can i ask you something?" Said Steve breaking the silence. "Yeah whats up?" He looks at me nervously. "Are you and y/n a thing or are you guys just
Friends?" I look over at him and raise my eyebrow. "Uh why do you wanna know?" I ask. "No reason." He said looking down at the ground."me and y/n are together." I said as we finally made it into the store. "Ah ok. I'll get the flowers you get whatever you think she'll like." Said Steve as he walked over to the flowers.We grabbed the stuff and payed for it,then we headed back to the school to drive over to the hospital. We got back to the school and drove back to the hospital.
___y/n POV___
It was a hour after Eddie left and i was feeling quite tired but as soon as i tried shutting my eyes the door had a knock on it. "Come in?" I said confused. The door opens and there he stands. Billy Fucking Hargrove. I was petrified. "Hey y/n. How you feeling?" He asks sitting next to me on the chair. "Uhm fine, but how did you know i was in here?" I stuttered a little bit trying to speak. I couldn't believe he was here."your mom reached out to me because apparently she can't make it back to Hawkins in like 3 weeks." He said smiling."oh okay." I was gripping the blanket so hard. I can't believe he was here.
"Hey honey, your fine, i'm here." He said trying to reach for my hand but i pulled away fast. He sighs and sits back,looking up at the ceiling. "Look y/n i know why you hate me so much, I understand i was awful to you when we we're together. I'm really really sorry sweetheart." "Billy you abused me- i went home every night with fucking bruises all over me. I don't think i'm ever gonna forgive you." I said trying not to get him angry. He looks at me angrily and grips onto my wrist and squeezes it hard. "Billy your hurting me, let me go." "Y/n your gonna forgive me. I came all the way from fucking California just to see you and apologize and you won't even forgive me and that night i came to see you and you slammed the fucking door in my face, what am i nothing to you anymore?" My breathing started to get heavier and heavier. Which made my ribs hurt really bad I started to not be able to breath. "Y/n? Are you okay?" He asks. His voice sounded echoey. He runs out the room and comes back with a bunch of nurses. One of them tries to calm me down but that didn't work. A second later and a mask goes over my face and everything went black, again.
___Eddie POV___
We finally made it to the hospital and walked in. We went to her room until a nurse stops us. "Are you Mr. Munson? Her boyfriend?" She asks holding a clipboard."uh yeah." "I'm sorry but she can't be visited right now she's recovering." My heart started pounding out of my chest."what happened to her? Is she okay?" I ask. "Well she started going into shock. She couldn't breathe for about 3 minutes and this wouldn't randomly happen. It would happen because of stress or something made her scared. She's not awake right now but i'll ask if you two can go see her. " she smiles and walks away. "Oh shit." I sat down on the seat in the hallway and started to hyperventilate from all this. "Hey man she'll be fine. I promise. " Steve said as the nurse came back. "So your allowed to visit her." She says and walks away. I get up and walk in the room.
"Hargrove?" I ask confused. "Munson?" He said looking up at me. "Uh why are you here?" I placed the stuff on the counter and walked a little closer to him. "Her mom told me to check on her. Made me drive all the way from California to see her." He said.
He mumbled something but i couldn't understand what he said."ah thats nice of you." I said as i sat down next to y/n. "Why are you here Munson?" He asks looking up. I wanted to tell him that we we're together but i know that would cause a fight, knowing that Billy is her ex. "Just here for support." I smiled.
__y/n POV__
I slowly open my eyes again to see Billy, Eddie and Steve in my room. I noticed i didn't have a breathing tube this time. I just had air going into my nose with felt kinda weird. It tickled a bit. "Eds?" I said stuttering a bit. "Hey sweetheart, how are you feeling?" He said pushing a strain of hair behind my ear. "Not well,my ribs are hurting more then they hurt earlier." I said grabbing his hand."well i'm here if you need me." He smiles. I look over and see billy just sitting then with a straight face. "Get him out of here." I said pointing at Billy. "Why sweetheart? He's here for you." "No he's here to hurt me even more then he used to." I said as tears started to form in my eyes. "What? Is that true Hargrove?" He said looking at Billy. "No she's lying. She probably had a dream or something. I'm always here for her no matter what."he said standing up. "No your not. You came here to apologize then you hurt me." I said rolling up my sleeve to show Eddie my bruised wrist. His eyes widened and looked over at Steve and said something that i couldn't make out.
"Alright Hargrove Out before we call the nurse." Said Steve going up to Billy then grabbing his arm. As soon as Billy got up he glared at me, then he left the room."I'm sorry Eddie. I just don't wanna see him again." I said trying to hold back the tears in my eyes."hey that's totally fine but can you tell me what he said and did to you?" He says gripping my hand. "He uhm basically apologized for how he treated me and i didn't accept his apology and he grabbed my wrist and asked me if he meant anything to me anymore. It made me really scared that he was gonna hurt me again so I panicked and i couldn't breathe anymore." I said. I started crying my eyes out in front of them.
Before Eddie could say a word a nurse knocks on the door and comes in. "Hello y/n! I got good news for you! So while you we're passed out we we're able to take another x-ray of your ribs and spine. Your spine looks completely fine and your ribs too- they might hurt for a bit but take some Tylenol and the pain should go away." She says and smiles. "Okay thanks nurse. Am i able to leave today or?" "Yes you can actually. Your clothes are in this cabinet. I hope the rest of your day goes well" she said smiling then shutting the door. "Uhm i need to change." I said hinting them. "Oh uh right." Steve gets up and leaves. "Eddie. You too." I said smiling. "I'm not leaving princess, and by the way- i brought you extra clothes just in case." She says reaching for my bag.
"Aww thanks" i grab the clothes from my bag and put them on my bed. I stand up and try to take off the gown. "Uhm Eddie could you untie it please?" He nods and starts untying it. I could feel his cold rings hitting against my skin, it sent shivers down my spine. I missed his touch so much. "There,all done sweetheart." He says as he unties the last knot. I take off the gown and look down at my body and see all the bruises on my ribs. I touch one of the bruises and i flitch a little from the pain.
A couple minutes later and I'm finally dressed, i quickly slip my shoes on and grab my stuff before i could Eddie stopped me. "Ah no your not carrying your bag. I am." He said smiling. "You know i can carry stuff on my own right? I'm not a little kid." I said rolling my eyes. "And? Your still my little baby."He said walking out of the room."ew don't say that ever again." I laughed. "Ready to go?" Asks Steve. I nod and we walk down the hallway to the front.
"Have a good night guys!" Some lady said at the front desk. "You too!" I said walking outside. We get in Steves car, me sitting in the back of course and drive to the school where Eddie's van is. I looked out the car window and saw that it was pretty dark out. Maybe it was 8 or 9 PM? I just wanna go home. I need sleep I'm exhausted and a second later I'm passed out.
I slowly open my eyes and see that I'm laying in my bed.i look over and see Eddie sitting in my chair in front of my vanity. "Hey Eddie, i'm gonna go take a shower." I said yawning. I walk out of my room and into my bathroom. I took off my clothes and stood in front of my mirror looking at all the bruises around my ribs and on my face. I couldn't even look at myself anymore.My bruises on my body remind me of billy which made me break down. I slowly slide my back down the wall and bring my knees to my chest and start crying. I couldn't help it, with the amount of trauma i've been through..i swear i could cry a river.
I pulled myself together and started the shower, once I stepped in the warm water hit my skin which made my body shiver. I washed my hair and then I grabbed my body wash and started washing my body. I started at my stomach and went up to my ribs, even the slightest of pressure made my ribs hurt. I wash the rest of my body and rinse my body off and shut the water off. I step out of the shower and wrapped a towel around me. I opened the door and headed to my room, Eddie was sitting in the same spot.i head to my closet and find a pare of pajama pants and a t-shirt. I throw Eddie some of my sweatpants and a black sweatshirt.
I get change and get into bed. "Eddie come here." i said reaching my arms out. He smiles and lies in my bed with me. I swear to god this man's smile brightens my life. He's laying right next to me so i just wrap my arms around him. I missed this so much. "I missed this Eddie." I said. As of this point I'm basically laying on top of him. "I missed this too sweetheart." He lifted my chin to his face and kissed me softly. It felt like we haven't kissed in so long i just didn't wanna stop. I get on top of him and start profusely making out with him, his tongue slowly crept into my mouth,while light moans escaped me.
His hand goes under my shirt and he squeezes my right breast. He breaks the kiss and starts kissing down my neck leaving love marks all over me.
He takes my shirt off and throws it on the floor.he deepened the kiss and i wrap my arms around his neck. He takes his shirt off and then he bites my neck, slight moans escape my mouth. He brings his hand down to my pants and slips his hand into them. He rubs his finger over my thin laced panties, where my clit was. I moaned a bit. "Is this okay?" I nod and his hand is inside my panties. He rubs my clit slowly and i stop him. "Hey is everything okay? Did i hurt you?" I get up and sit at the end of my bed. "Uhm just not tonight please. I'm extremely tired. I'm so sorry Eddie, i understand if you wanna leave." I feel like i did something terrible to him because when i looked at him his face flooded with disappointment.He didn't say anything back, he just got up and left. Did i ruin something? I feel terrible. I got underneath the covers and a tear rolled down my cheek- multiple tears. After he left it made me feel like he was just using me for sex. Is that what he wanted? Just my body? More tears fell from my eyes. I started feeling drowsy. All of a sudden I fell asleep.
___MORNING___
I woke up to the sound of my alarm beeping, knowing that i have to go to school today- KNOWING everyone is gonna be talking about me. Jason probably told everyone a rumor about me, and Eddie probably hates my guts, which why would i care. He's probably just mad i wouldn't let him get in my pants. I don't care about him anymore. I got out of bed and picked a outfit that will cover my bruises. So i picked this:
I went to my vanity and tried covering up my black eye but it didn't do anything. I guess i have to go to school with a black eye and bruises,Yayyy. I get my shoes on and grab my bag. I walk downstairs and see dustin in the Kitchen. "Hey y/n, robin brought your car back last night and left the keys on the counter." He said eating the rest of the cereal. I smile then sit down on the chair in the kitchen. We didn't have to leave for another 5 minutes so i'm just gonna wait. "Hold up i need to grab my stuff in my room." He said running upstairs.
5 minutes past and dustin still isn't downstairs yet. "DUSTIN LETS GO WE HAVE TO LEAVE." I yelled from the bottom of the stairs. "Shit shit shit. Sorry
Y/n- lets go" he says e running down the stairs and out the door. I grab my keys and walk outside. I open my door and get in. I start the Engine and back out of the driveway. As we we're driving all i could think about was what everyone was gonna say when i get to school. Maybe he didn't say anything. I'll just have to find out myself. "Hey uhm what actually happened to you? Like why do you have bruises and a black eye? No one told me what happened to you and it's annoying." Dustin asked. I hesitated to tell him the truth about Jason. "I was at the convenience store and some old drunks beat me up for no reason." I lied and felt terrible."oh shit i'm sorry
Y/n" he said. I smiled.
__SCHOOL__
I pull into school and park my car. Dustin gets out and runs to mike and Lucas. I step out and grab my bag and lock the door. I walk to the front and see all eyes on me. I'm hearing whispers like "someone got into a bitch fight." Or "the freak got beat up." I could hear them all the way down the hallway. I just completely ignored them. I got to my locker and grabbed my stuff. I turn around and see Eddie running down the hallway towards me. I shut my locker and run into the bathroom. I open a stall and close it and start crying again,tears pouring down my cheeks like a waterfall. A couple minutes later and i'm able to pull myself together and walk out of the bathroom.
_________________
My first class went by fast,but too fast because i had next class with Jason, i run to my locker to grab my stuff then walk to class without seeing Eddie this time. The bell rings and i'm off to my next class, i walk in and sit down. Everyone is just staring at me, whispering. At this point i don't even care anymore. Until i look up and see Jason. He glares at me then sits down on the opposite side of the classroom. I open my bag and grab my notebook and a pencil. A second later the door opens. "I'm sorry to interrupt but may i barrow y/n Henderson and Jason Carver please?" "Of course." I put my things in my bag and walk out of the class when i feel breath on my ear. "I swear to god if you told on me i will kill you." Whispered Jason. The principal turned around and stopped walking. "Everything alright Mr.Carver?" "Yeah everything's alright sir." He said smiling then they kept walking.
We entered his office and i see Eddie sitting in one of the chairs. "Have a seat." I sit down in one of the chairs and put my bag on the ground next to me.
"So Mr.Munson said that some assault has happened on Monday. Ive heard it from him and i can see that something has happened to you y/n." He said staring at me.he was talking about my black eye and the bruises all over my face. "Uhm-" "she probably was just being clumsy, i mean girls can be clumsy a lot." Said Jason cutting me off. "Jason let her talk please." I was so hesitant to tell Mr.Coleman what he did to me but i didn't want Jason to hurt me even more, so i had to lie."i was at a convention store and i was walking out and a bunch of drunks beat me up. Can i leave now?" He looked at me with a blank face. "Oh cmon y/n thats not what happened. Why are you lying?i can see it in your eyes that your not telling him the truth." Eddie says looking at me. "Y/n? Is that true- don't lie to me now."
I really didn't wanna say it with Jason in the room. i could NOT tell him the truth. I'm just paranoid that Jason will do something to me in the future. "I'm telling you the truth. Why can't you believe me?" I grabbed my bag and walked out of the room. I can't believe i just lied for Jason.i felt so fucking guilty.
"Hey sweetheart, why did you lie for Jason?" Said Eddie walking up behind me. I just ignored him and kept walking. "Y/n answer me when I'm talking to you!" He said grabbing my arm. I look at him in the eyes and just tugged my wrist out of his grip. I do not wanna speak to him. EVER AGAIN. "Leave me alone Eddie." I said then walked away. I went back to class and sat down and carried on with the rest of the class.20 minutes later then the bell rang. I got up and walked out of the room to my locker.
As i was walking to my locker i hear someone call my name and i turn around and see Steve running towards me. "Uh yeah y/n, you okay." He looked at me worried.When i heard the word"okay" i I completely broke down. He pulled me into a hug. "Hey hey why are you crying?" He asked as i lifted my head from his chest."its Eddie. Can we go somewhere else to talk about this please." "Uh yeah follow me." He grabs my hand and pulled me into a closet and turned the little light bulb on. "So what's happening between you and Eddie?" He said putting his hands on his waist."he's been using me for my body- we we're close to doing it last night and i stopped him and told him i was to tired, and....h-he just walked out of my room without a single word. It made me feel like i'm just a toy to him. "
A tear rolled down my cheek. I couldn't help but start crying, he pulled me into another hug and kissed the top of my head."i am so so sorry y/n,i mean literally that's a fucked up thing to do. I mean look at you. Your beautiful, nice, smart and now he's losing out on that? Shame on him." I couldn't help but smile at what he just said. "Steve your literally the best. I don't know what i'd do without you. " i let go of the hug and he wiped my tears. I look up at him and he's just looking at me. His eyes we're basically staring into my head. "You know, your the most amazing person ever." He said smiling at me. I couldn't help but blush. He moved his hand down my cheek and rubbed it Softly.
"Steve your amazing. I don't know what i'd do if i never met you. My life would be so bad." I chuckled. He chuckled a bit and leaned in closer to my face, almost our lips touching. I felt his breath on my face. I looked back into his eyes and a second later our lips connected. It was passionate,his lips we're softer then skin. I let go of the kiss and smile up at him. "That was amazing y/n. When we're you ever a good kisser?" He smiled. "Ive always been you just realized it now." I said smiling back. "Okay yeah sure." He laughed. The bell rings and we both head out of the closet. I head to my next classes and carry on.
_____LUNCH____
I walk into the cafeteria and sit and a open table by myself, i reach in my bag and open my book and start reading. I rather sit by myself today because I need to think, Steve and Robin always sit together,because there like best friends.
__Eddies POV__
"Eddieeeee are you paying attention?" Asked Gareth waving his hand in front of my face snapping me out of it. "Yes." I said staring him down. "Dude you've been like this all fucking day- what is wrong?" He asked. "Nothing i just didn't sleep at all last night." That was a lie, all i was thinking about was why y/n was so distant from me today. I didn't do anything to hurt her- i don't think so? I remember leaving last night because she said to leave. I wanna talk to her but she'll just shut me out.
__ y/n POV__
I look up from my book and it feels like that all eyes are on me so i just get up and put my stuff in my bag and walk out of the cafeteria and outside. I needed to be alone, so i just sit on the bleachers outside. I pull my book out again and the cigarettes i have stashed at the bottom of my back. I pull out one and light it and inhale- then exhale. It felt nice, i'm really not supposed to have these with my ribs but at this point i don't even care. I don't care about anything anymore. My life has turned into shit since i got back to Hawkins. Was is Karma? I didn't deserve this. The dreams,Jason, Eddie. What did i do to even deserve this. "Y/n y/n? I'm talking to you." I look over and see Robin standing at the bottom of the bleachers.
"Oh hey robin." I said wiping my tears away. "Hey why are you by yourself? Come sit with us." She says sitting next to me." I'm good i just wanna be alone today." She could tell something was wrong.she knew me like the back of my hand. "Y/n/n i know when somethings wrong. What happened? You can talk to me." "Eddies using me." I said holding back my tears. "Y/n i am so so sorry." She pulls me into a hug and lets me cry on her shoulder. "Do you wanna get out of here? Go somewhere?" She asks letting go of the hug. "No its okay,i'll go to the rest of my classes. I have to graduate this year. " i said smiling. "Oh by the way i kinda need your car again- im sorry but once i get enough ill buy my own i promise." "Robin its fine.i don't mind walking home.The bell rings and i shove my stuff back into my bag and run inside. "Slut" some random dude said walking past me. What the fuck was that for?
I walk to my locker and see a bunch of notes on it saying "slut" "whore". It was worse names i just couldn't say it in my head because it was so bad. I took the notes off my locker and opened it and more of the them fell out. I picked them up and shoved them back into my locker and locked it. The second bell rang and i carried on to my last class.
___WALK HOME___
As i was walking home i could feel that fall was starting soon. It was warm but not to warm. The leaves we're falling. A car drives by me and a guy yells out the window"SLUT". Why was i being slut shamed? I started walking faster to get home.
I got home and unlocked the door, i put my bag on the kitchen table when- "y/n! I'm home!!" Said my mom popping out from behind the counter. I jump back a little and turned around. "Jesus mom- you scared me!" I said giving her a hug. "Honey i am so sorry i wasn't there for you when that happened. I was trying to get home but the plane wasn't working so my flight was delayed." She spat out. "Its okay Dustin was there for me." I said smiling at her. "What about billy? I sent him over to keep you company." "Mom, uhm Billy has never been there for me at all. He was at the hospital but he just made things worst for me." I said with a frown. "Oh i'm so sorry honey, i didn't know who else to call. Your father wants nothing to do with me anymore so i'm on my own."she said rubbing the side of my arm. "Its okay mom its not your fault." I said. She smiles and i walk to my room and lie down. I needed a power
Nap so i just passed out.
____6:34 pm____
Knock.... Knock........ knock.....
𖣘
I open my eyes and look at where to knocking is coming from. I walk over to my window and pull back my curtain to see Eddie standing there outside my fucking window. My face drops,and my heart races faster and faster. I unlock the window and open it and jumps in.
"Hey." He says smiling.
I didn't say a word i just crossed my arms and looked away. I didn't even wanna talk to him or be near him. Being near him makes me wanna blow my fucking brains out. I walk away and sit on the edge of my bed. I'm gonna ask him. Fuck it.
"Eddie why did you use me?" I said still looking at the floor. " i mean was i not good enough for you that i was just used for sex? Because of you everyone keeps slut shaming me. Ive been called it everywhere including on the way home- because of you. Why?" I spat out. I look up at him and his face just looks shocked. Like was i right? Did he actually use me?
"Y/n what the fuck are you talking about? Using you? Where did this come from? Is that why you've been distant all day?" He said staring at me.
"So your playing dumb apparently? I just said the other night i wasn't ready because i just got back from the hospital and you just get up at just leave with no words? You know how much that fucking hurt me. I cried myself to sleep. I woke up and had to put on a fake ass show knowing I've been used and your playing dumb with me?" I said as tears poured down my face. I couldn't stop crying it was impossible. "Hey hey y/n look at me, i never ever used you okay? I literally can't live without you. Your the love of my live. If i ever hurt you EVER in my entire life, i would never be able to get over it. Your my sun and moon and i don't know what I'd do without you. I love you y/n. I fucking will love you till the day i die. No matter what." He said. Was i just overthinking? Did he mean all of this? His eyes we're pouring tears so he has to mean it. "I love you so fucking much Eddie i-i can't believe I accused you of that- i'm so sorry Eddie i feel so terrible." I said looking away from him, crying even more. "Hey sweetheart its okay. I forgive you, i'm so sorry I walked out on you like that it was so foolish of me. I promise i won't do anything like that again to you okay?" He said
I smiled a little and nodded and hugged him. I missed his hugs. His strong scent of cigarettes and cologne, i needed to kiss this man right now. I let go of the hug and put my hand on the side of his face and kissed him passionately. I missed his kisses. His warm hugs. His smile. Eddie Munson i don't know what the fuck i'd do without you. Your my world. My everything. I release the kiss and look in his eyes.
"I love you Eddie Munson. I fucking love you so much"
