Infatuation | Eddie Munson

19- The Trance

Hello guys, here's another chapter where music might add to the experience, this time, I recommend playing the song "Everybody Wants To Rule The World" by Tears For Fears :)
Again, you don't have to, I just think it's a fun addition, enjoy!

After Dustin suggested that there could be a way to prevent Vecna's curse, I couldn't wait any longer.
"What is then? Spit it out," I said impatiently.

"Max just went into the trance, and we got her out of it by playing her favourite song, over," he said frantically.

"What? Is she okay!" I said in a worried tone.

"Yeah, she's fine, over," he replied.

Eddie sat with his arms crossed, "Why does he keep saying tha-"

"So playing my favourite song will get me out of the trance, that's it?" I interrupted.

"Yes, I've gotta go, but if you start floating and shit, Eddie, play her favourite song, okay? Over and out."

The line cut off and the room became dead silent.
A huge wave of relief fell over me, a wide grin spreading across my face as I wrapped my arms around Eddie, embracing him in a hug, but I pulled away after a couple of seconds. I cleared my throat, "Sorry..."

In response he just laughed, shaking his head.

"What?" I said, my cheeks slightly burning up.

"Nothing- It's nothing, it's just, you. You're cute," he said, smirking at me.

"Yeah?" I teased, knowing he could probably see me blushing. "And you still stink like piss."

"Oh really? It didn't seem like that a couple of minutes ago," he said tauntingly, pointing to the wall in which we had made out against.

I sent him a glare, rolling my eyes.

"You never replied, by the way," he mentioned.

"What do you mean?" I asked, confused.

"Before, when I told you I liked you."

"Oh... well, I don't," I said.

He shifted closer to me. "Is that right?"

Our legs were now touching and he lifted up my chin so that my eyes aligned with his. He planted a kiss on my cheek. "What about now?"

I didn't respond , suppressing any sort of emotion. "Now?" he said, planting another one on my forehead.  

"Nope," I whispered with a gulp.

Challenging me, he tilted my chin upwards, pressing a tender kiss on my neck. I held my breath, not responding as he said, "Now?"

I didn't reply, but my heart was beating fast and the room became to feel like it was increasing in temperature. Without hesitation, he smashed his lips into mine, kissing them passionately, pulling away, leaving me starving for more. He stared at me as he waited for an answer. "Fine..." I said, giving in. "Maybe I do like you back."

It was weird to see this side of Eddie. A side of him that I've never seen before until now. A side of him that's exclusively for me.
