IMPORTANT

I'm publishing this unfinished chapter to give ya'll content. I'll come back to finish it soon because I'm working on so much at once and trying to focus on school.

Reminder that it is ok to point out grammatical errors. I personally WANT my work to be good quality.

♤Y/N POV♤

I woke up feeling hungry and groggy. The first thing I really notice is the soft sound of a heart beat and the arm wrapped around my body. I open my eyes and look up at Eddie, his lips are slightly parted. Trying to get up, but failing miserably as he pulls me back in his sleep.

"Eddie, wake up. I'm hungry." I rest my head just below his chin. He sighs and hugs me, "But Y/N, I'm comfortable, and so are you." My arm slides over his chest and I hug back. "Well yeah, but I'm hungry."

I manage to slide out of his grasp and head to the bathroom for my morning routine. In a drawer I find extra toothbrushes in packaging and pull out two. Small travel-sized toothpaste is adorable to me for some odd reason.

After I brush my teeth, wash my face, and change my (menstrual item) I exit the restroomto find Eddie looking at his scars in the mirror. Eddie looked away, pulling his hand away from his face. "I didn't realize how bad it was. Is this why everyone is so afraid of me?"

"Nah, I think it was the whole 'marry me or die' thing. You aren't scary to me though." I shrug and sit on the bed next to him, "You also need work on your social skills. I'm going to check if everyone got back after last night, go brush your teeth."

♡Eddie POV♡

Just because I left that place doesn't mean scars and pain won't follow. I don't remember everything before the Morphogenic Engin, and I kinda hope I don't. Y/N has shown me compassion. He is determined to give me a normal life, but why? And at what cost? Will he even be able to look at me as a person if he knew all I've done? I know that I must have done some horrible things to be in Mount Massive to begin with.

I finish up in the bathroom and head down to the kitchen to find everyone. Lisa and Y/N are in the kitchen. Waylon is at the dinner table with his two sons, he has a bandage around his leg from when he fell down the elevator. I decide to sit next to Miles on the bar stool. "G'morning, did you get your hand checked out?" Miles holds up his injured hand with bandages tightly wrapped around it. "I hoped that sleeping would make that nightmare hell-hole dissappear. Nan, still missing my fingers." He smiles and laughs. "At least the drugs they put me on numbs the pain. Probably won't last long though."

Y/N sets plates with scrambled eggs, a funfetti pancake, and bacon down in front of us. "Good food for good boys." My face heats up. 'Am I a good boy?' He walks around the island and sits next to me with his own plate. Miles is already hogging his food down. I cut into the fluffy pancake.

Y/N is a food expert if anyone asks me. Everyone is eating silently enjoying the peace and a good breakfast. "Hey Y/N, have you ever though of opening a bed and breakfast? You have the talent for it."

He smiled and turned to me, "I considered it for a while but, I already have enough on my plate at the moment. Pun intended. Bartending is my specialty because it's like science in a way. You mix liquids, in this case alcohol, and get a final result. I'll probably work at my uncles bar after this. You know, dead boss and all." I look at him in awe. What can't he do?

Y/N chuckled. "Don't worry, I'll teach you the basics." He winked at me.

Everyone finished their food. We chilled in our pajamas for a while and decided to throw out our pile of bloody clothes rather than keep them. Miles offered to drop us off at Y/Ns house after grabbed our few things and left.

Y/N jumped in the back seat and laid down so I sat in front. "I'll type my address in your GPS." He crawled up between us and used Miles phone. "Will your hand be ok to drive?" Miles shrugged,"Don't worry. After all, it's not like my hand will fall off." And with that we took off down the road.

I rest my head on the window and sleep overtakes me...

♤Y/N POV♤

We made it home in half an hour and Eddie is still sleeping. I poke my head through the seats and gently shake him awake. "Hey Eddie, we're here."

He squints for a moment and wakes up fully. "How long was I asleep for?" Before I can answer, my roommate Fable yanked me out of the car.

"Y/N, I swear if you would have gotten your ass killed I'd beat the shit out of you! And who are these people?" They set me down and look Eddie and Miles up and down. "You really need a better taste in men."

Don't need a mirror to know my face is red. "This is Eddie, he's staying in my room until we figure something out. That's Miles, he's missing a few fingers." Miles rolled his eyes and shakes his head. "Welp, I'm heading out. I owe you Y/N. See ya."

Miles left and an uncomfortable silence fills the atmosphere. "...Sooo, spaghetti for dinner?"

"Sounds good to me." With that we all enter the cabin home. "Oh! I get to show you my room!" I grab Eddie's hand and drag him upstairs.
