GIVE EM' HELL - eddie munson [DISCONTINUED]

CHAPTER SIX - ROW ROW ROW YOUR BOAT

Astoria wakes up to the sound of Eddie roughly opening a drawer. "God, what the fuck, dude?" He ignores her and keeps opening cupboards, Astoria laughs a little, "What is with you and not knowing where things are in kitchens. I need to sleep, I don't stay this pretty without sleep!"

 "Har har," He says, opening top cupboards, bottom cupboard, just any cupboard he could find. Finally, he grabs a can out of one of the cupboards, "Yeah, you'll do." When Astoria sees that he's making spaghetti of some kind she walks into the kitchen.

Exhaling angrily, she tries to snatch the bowl on the stove away from him. "Hey! Get away, they're mine!" "Eddie, spaghetti makes me break the fuck out I'm literally going to start screaming for help if you don't go to the shed and eat there."

His brows furrow. "You're not the one eating it." Astoria's scoffs, "Duh! But like the spaghetti infiltrates the air and then I break out so get that shit AWAY!" Eddie smiles, mockingly bringing the bowl closer.

Giving him a warning look, she backs away. Eddie's speed increases, "Eddie, no." He starts to chase her, "EDDIE NO! SIT! SIT!" He laughs wildly before stopping and grabbing a spoon out of the drawer.

"Fine, I'll go to the shed."

God he's like a dog, she thinks before panting and going back to sleep on the couch. Meanwhile, in the shed, Eddie speaks into the radio. "Hey, Dustin, this is Eddie the Banished. You there?"

He tries again, "Dustin, can you hear me? Dustin? Earth to Dustin." "Hey, it's Nancy," a voice enters the radio. "Wheeler! Hey! Um, I'm gonna need a food delivery, like, really soon, unless you want Astoria to starve or me going out into the world." 

Nancy sighs, "No, no. Don't do that. Stay where you are, and we'll be there as soon as we can." "Yeah, listen, um... can you pick me up a six-pack? I know, it's stupid as shit drinking right now, but it will calm me and Tori's jangled nerves and hopefully get her to shut up."

"Um, I'm gonna have to call you back." "No don't you da-- Wheeler? Wheeler?"

After finishing his spaghetti, he walks back in, shoving Astoria to wake her up. "What? I told you I need sleep--" "Yeah, really don't care Tori, just wanted to let you know that Wheeler's bring beer later on."

She freezes at the nickname, chuckling, "Tori?" Eddie wants to scream, "Yeah, whatever, just get up." 

"Fuck off."

He groans, pulling her arm, "GET UP!" Eventually she gets up, "God, you're like a pre-teen starting to go into puberty." Astoria smiles sarcastically. "Thanks for that lovely analogy." 

Holding his hands up in protest, he walks out back to the shed. When Astoria spots her reflection in the mirror she gasps dramatically, fixing her hair. 

She wasn't normally insecure, but something about practically living with a guy who she obviously had chemistry with made her more self-conscious than usual.
