111 • EDDIE MUNSON X READER

31

"ahem.." i heard someone clear their voice not far behind me as i slightly jumped, making the books slip out of my hand.

"sorry.. didn't mean to scare you" the voice said, i knew it was eddie.

i looked down at the books i dropped and already leaned down.

obviously eddie had leaned down not far from me and we made eye contact as we touched the same book.

i quickly broke eye contact and grabbed the book above his had a smile some pages that fell out of it.

i heard a little sigh leaving his lips as he stood up.

"what have we got in here.." he said, leaving over to the locker and looking what's in it"

i loved how he still had his little bubbly personality even when i was awkward around him, i loved that about him.

i loved that about him.
i loved that .
about that, i loved it...
i loved him.

oh my fuck, i have to stop having these cringy thoughts.

i stood back up as i saw his arm leaning on the locker far above.

how was he so tall?

i quickly put all the books in the locker, i had to just give him back the money.

i didn't want to fuck it up and stress about it more later.

i closed the locker door as he quickly took his leaning arm away from it as it closed.

the metal hit the other metal, making a slight bang as i now took a slight step back from eddie since we were really close.

"iron maiden, love it" he said, smiling and blushing a bit.

"i um-" i said, looking down as i lifted my skirt.

the second i lifted it, eddie immediately looked away and covered his eyes which was so respectful of him.

"it's fine.. it's a tennis skort" i said

"you sure?"

i sighed, "i know what i wear, eddie." i said, making him smile a little as i reached into the pocket of my skirt.

i took the money out and counted it.

"what's that?" eddie said as i ignored his question and counted it.

10$
20$
30$
40$
50$
60$

i quickly reached into my pocket and took out the other two notes as i counted it all up to make 80$ all together.

"i don't need th-"

"take it eddie" i quickly said, grabbing his hand and putting it into the palm of it before taking each and every finger, which was covered in rings, and closing it.

"keep it y/n"

"no!" i said.

"did you get a dress?"

"yes.. i did" i said , looking down.

"look at me y/n" he said as he lifted my chin to face him.

"then how did you get this money back?"

i sighed "i worked with my mum, i got lots of tips.."

"when?"

"yesterday!"

(eddie pov)

thank god, i thought she became a dealer or something.

(y/n pov)

"okay.." he said slowly as if he were thinking about something.

"how was it?" he asked.

i sighed slightly.

"sorry- we don't have to talk about it-" he said quickly.

"it's fine- i just should've have taken the money from you-"

"no y/n, it's okay, it was my offer to you, i WANTED you to accept it" he said as i nodded slightly, bit my bottom lip as i hid the top teeth with my top lip and looked into the locker we both leaned on.

"are you okay?" he asked, looking at me like i was crazy.

"what- yeah, yeah.." i said, leaning off of the locker as i quicken walked down thecorridor back into the lunch hall.

i heard another sigh leaving his lips as i cringed at myself walking back to the girls.

"did you give back the money?" chrissy asked a si nodded and settled my self down next to her.

obviously she has been talking to the girls about prom, it's all we were talking about.

"we were discussing who's dress is the best; and i'm not been kidding when all of us agreed that yours was the best" a girl with blonde hair said on our table as the girls agreed.

"well y/n had 80$ whilst we had 30$, of course her dress will be more stunning than ours."
another girl said as they all agreed.

i smiled at their positive comments.

"you guys actually make me want to go to prom" i said.

we spent the rest of linch practically got on through our plans, how we would get ready, at whos, when etc.

we all decided to meet at chrissys at 4pm on friday, three hours before prom.

chrissy told us to go home, get our makeup and dresses and go to her, she said she would order us some pizza in the meantime.

i've probably never been more excited for a friday evening before.

this would be really really fun.

we would all help eachother with makeup, dresses, our hair, literally everything, and i can just imagine how gorgeous we'd all look.

well maybe not me, but the rest of the girls, right?!

i walked home with max, not saying a word as we both listened to music on the way, unaware of our surroundings.

max was obviously listening to kate bush, her favourite.

i was listening to black sabbath. 

we got home, and nothing was on my mind except that prom night on friday.

and i was pretty excited, but the whole thought of people who betrayed me being there just crushed the excitement into pieces.

but it's like eddie put the pieces back to where they were you know? i was looking forward to... HOPEFULLY, seeing him, but i just can't forgive him, something is telling me not too.

but i really like him, more than friends, WAY more than friends, i think i'm hexed because i can't believe i'm falling for someone so fucking hard.
