The game of love (Eddie Munson x masc reader)

The battleground known as school

Y/n's POV

As I walk into the cafeteria, I get my lunch and make my way to Eddie's table.

"Hey!" I hear someone shout, I see Robin waving at me, she's sitting with the rest of the band group, "You coming?" She asks, I look at her and then back at Eddie who sees me and waves at me to go take a seat.

"I'm sorry," I tell her as I walk to Eddie's table, she just smiles at me shaking her head and starts making kissing faces, to which I just flip her off.

I take a seat next to Eddie and Donny, placing my tray on the table.

"Hey guys," I say looking at the four boys and taking a seat.

"Well, how nice of you to join us y/n," Eddie says.

"I bet you're excited about the basketball thing," Gareth says and I just roll my eyes as I start eating my lunch.

"Don't even remind me, I can't believe I won't be able to see the end of the campaign, you all better fill me in later about what happened, I want to hear every detail" I tell them and they all nod.

Mike and Dusting then arrive as they take a seat.

"But anyway society has to blame something, we're an easy target," Donny says and everyone nods, I just listen unsure of what they're talking about.

"Exactly, we're the freaks because we like to play a fantasy game," Eddie says crossing his arms, "But" He begins saying standing up on the table, "As long as you're into band," He says looking at the band table and then back at me, "No offence"

"None taken," I tell him smiling.

"Or science," he says making his way down the table, "Or parties" he adds mockingly, "Or a game where you toss balls into laundry baskets" He shouts turning to look at the basketball team table.

"You want something freak?" Jason shouts back at him standing up to which Eddie just replies with the iconic sign of the horns of AC/DC and sticks his tongue out, I just laugh at him, and how ridiculous yet confident he can be.

"It's forced conformity," He says walking back, "That's what's," He says before jumping down and scaring a girl walking around in the cafeteria, "Killing the kids" everyone just laughs at him, "That's the real monster" He finishes taking a seat.

"So, uh, speaking of monsters" Dusting begins saying and we all look at him, "Uh, Lucas has to do his, uh, balls-in-laundry-baskets game, so...he's not gonna be able to make it to Hellfire tonight" Dusting explains as he nervously chuckles.

"And I know there's no way we can beat your sadistic campaign without him. So, me and Mike, we were talking, shooting the shit, and we were thinking that maybe we might..."

"Postpone," Mike says.

"Postpone?!" We all shout at them.

"You can't just drop this on us!"
"Over my dead body!"
"There's no way!
"I killed off Cupid so you morons could play without me no way" I shout at them.

"Shut up!" Eddie says and everyone stops arguing, "You're saying Sinclair's been taken in by the dark side?" He asks.

"Uh, something like that?" Mike responds.

"Something like that," Eddie says back throwing them some of his food.

"Jesus Christ," Dustin says.

"And rather than find a sub for him, you want... you want to postpone, The Cult of Vecna?" He asks annoyed.

"I...I don't want to postpone it, we don't want to postpone it, it's just that, you know, most of the subs will be at the championship game" Mike explains.
