Eddie my love - Eddie X Reader ~ Stranger Things

~Unintentional~

My foot slid off the wall and my hands lost grip on the edge making me fall backwards. I let out a shriek before falling into the water and immediately started flailing about and panicking.

I couldn't do anything, the water had already started to fill my nose and I felt like I was gonna pass out. Until I felt a pair of arms grab me and lift me up out of the pool.

"Holy shit-" Steve said.

I was coughing and trying to breathe again.

Steve ran inside and I just sat there on the ground traumatized. I legit almost drowned cause of this dumbass.

Steve came back and put a towel around me helping me get up. But I didn't move I just stood there.

"Y/n Im sorry"

I didn't respond.

He picked me up and took me inside the house putting me down to sit at the table.

He squat down in front of me looking at me.
"You okay?"

I just stared at him.

"I'm sorry, I know, I'm a dick I shouldn't have done that"

I stayed silent looking away.

He got up and moved my hair away from my face as he held my face.

"I'm sorry" he made me look up at him.

I stared into his eyes

"I was scared and you left me there"

"I'm sorry, I didn't realize how dangerous it actually was"

"You fucking idiot" I said looking away and crossing my arms.

"Y/n.."

"No."

And poked me in the hip.

"Stop.."

He poked me again.

I smiled "stop"

Steve started tickling me

"STOP! STOP! STOP!" I laughed

"Say you forgive me"

"No!"

He kept tickling

"Stop!"

"Say it"

"I forgive you!"

He stopped. I hit his arm playfully "I hate you"

"Yea I know" he said with a smile

"...I want to go home"

Steve went back out to the backyard to grab my clothes and bring them back to me.

He knelt down in front of me holding my face.

"I'm sorry that happened..okay? It wasn't intentional."

"I know, it's whatever"

I took the towel off my shoulders and stood up drying myself before putting my clothes back on.
Steve stared at me getting back up before I could put my shirt on he pulled closer and stared into my eyes.

I looked down at his chest "you ever gonna shave that?"

"No, the ladies love it" he chuckled

I looked back up at him shaking my head no.

"Mmm I don't know about that.." i said

"You dont"

"I mean.." I felt his chest with my hand "not a huge fan..."

He put his hand under my chin lifting my face

"I'll get rid of it for you"

"Oh no, get your ladies.."

"I don't want em, I already have eyes on one"

I stared into his eyes as he leaned in.
"WOWWW would u look at the time." I said pulling away.
 
"my parents are gonna kill meeeee" I quickly put on my shirt and threw Steve's shirt at him. He caught it but just stared at me..

"Cmon let's go"

"Y/n.."

"What? Cmon I gotta go"

He sighed and put on his shirt as I dragged him out the house.

Time skip

Steve drove me home though it was an awkward ride back..

I walked into my house and forgot Dustin was at the Wheelers for a min.
I sighed putting my stuff down on the couch and going into the kitchen to grab a snack.

The house was silent, I liked it that way, Dustin used to bring Mike and will and Lucas over to play dbd and they always pissed me off because of how loud they were so I'm glad they don't play here anymore..
I made my way to my room ready to lay in bed and watch tv.. only to find someone already there.

I jumped back letting out a shriek

"What the fuck Eddie!"

"Y/n! I'm sorry.."

"How the fuck did you get in my room"

"Your mom let me in"

"Fucking.." I let out a sigh

"Sorry..."

"No you're good" I said "it's normal for my friends to randomly show up in my room unannounced." I said sarcastically

"Don't do that, I was worried about us"

"Us?" I repeated

"You.." he said

"Me?"

He stared at me "I was confused when you left"

"....How long have you been waiting here for?"

"Uh.." he looked down fiddling with his rings on his hand "...2 hours"

What was he doing in my room for 2 hours...

"We're you with Steve the whole time?" He asked
I nodded

"Thought so" he said avoiding eye contact.

"Eddie seriously why are you here" I asked him

"Because I had to clear things up with you"

"What?"

"I didn't.. do anything wrong right?"

"What? No no of course not."

"So why did you say bye like that earlier"

"I was stressed Eddie.. I'm not usually violent like you and your people are"

"My people? Y/n Im not a violent person.. and
neither is anyone I hang with either"

"If you say so."

"Y/n.." he said staring at me sitting on my bed

"Eddie you have to go"

"No! I'm not leaving until we fix this!"

"Fix what? There's nothing to fix Eddie!" I yelled

He stood up "What did I do wrong?!"

"Nothing, it's my fault." Now I was looking up at him.

"What?"

"When I'm around you I get overprotective, Eddie I'm getting attached.. they way I left you earlier... I didn't intend for it to happen the way it did.."

"Oh.."

We stood there in silence And I heard the door open.
I looked back hearing Dustin, Mike and Lucas laughing and talking to one another.

I looked back at Eddie and he looked at me.

"Go" I pushed him out slamming my door.

"Y/n-" I locked my door before he tried to open it
again.
