My Darling

a small bump in our road pt 2

Tw: mentions of r@pe

Eddie: Oh ok. Um are you ok? Darling?

You learn against your dresser, taking a deep breath

Y/n: Steve kissed me.

Eddie: I knew something was off.

Y/n:  and he told me he has feelings for me, and I see him as a brother. So yeah I'm fine it just brought back memories of something else

Eddie: what?

Y/n: is it ok if I don't talk about that right now

Eddie: of course. I gotta go.. talk.. to Steve now anyway

He got up and climbed out the window

Y/n: Eddie!

-Eddies POV-

Ok I wasn't planning on just "talking" to Steve.

I turned on my van and drove to Steve "the Hair" Harrington's house. When I got there he was already waiting outside. Almost like he knew I was coming.

Steve: oh hello Munson

Eddie: shut the fuck up Harrington

Steve: She deserves better than you. I can give her what she needs, stability

I gave Steve a swift punch across his cheek.

Steve: oh fuck I think you broke my jaw

Robin came running out

Eddie: oh shit

Robin: Steve, Steve are you ok?? STEVE?

Steve: yeah, no not really. This asshole made sure of that. I didn't want to fight you Eddie. I just wanted to talk. And I'm sorry about the whole kissing thing, I wasn't thinking straight man. 

I looked at his face that had been dented by my fist, leaving marks from my rings.  I nodded and took a step back.

Eddie: fine you wanna talk? Why would you kiss Y/n?? She's your best friend man, you're like her brother

Steve: I just told you. I MADE A MISTAKE
she's been through enough with out a screw up like you messing with her mind

Eddie: what you don't think I'm, I'm making her do drugs or some shit Harrington?

Steve: no, but I know what you get involved in

Eddie: oh really? You do? Well educate me please?

Steve: that club. Hellfire? You can't tell me that's not some kinda cult

Eddie: yk your buddy Dustin is a part of that "cult"
I gave him the full on sarcastic finger quotes

Steve: shut it Munson you know your no good for her or Dustin

Eddie: it's a Dnd club Harrington

Steve: what in hells name Dnd

Eddie: it's a fucking board game Harrington

Steve: Oh, wait what?

Eddie: it's dunguns and dragons you idiot

Steve: fine, that might check out but your still not good for her

Eddie: oh and what the hell do you know?

Steve: much more than you, did she tell you about Jessi?

Eddie: who's Jessi?

Steve: so you don't know.
Steve had a slightly devil like grin on his face

I tried to think, then it hit me

-flash back-

Y/n: I just never thought I'd be able to feel this way about someone again.

-present time-

Steve: It's her ex dumbass

Eddie: why'd she tell you about it and not me?

Steve: why don't you ask her yourself?

I turned around to see y/n. She looked betrayed. Almost like she could cry

Y/n: STEVE I WASNT READY TO TELL HIM YET. I TRUSTED YOU.

Was this what y/n didn't want to talk about before?

Robin: Steve, what is she talking about.

Steve just looked at her, I could see a hint of regret in his eyes. An unheard apology was made through his eyes.

I heard her speek suddenly
Y/n: Jessi, and I had met in art class. I was new to Westchester Prep, in back New York. It was like we had clicked instantly. He was my first love. We dated for about 3 months before...

tears started to stream down her face again. All I could think to do was hug her. Until she started to speak up again.

Y/n: w we were studying together at his h hou house and we'd b both fallen asleep. I woke up to someone carrying me. I i thought it was Jessi and didn't think much of it. I was suddenly placed on a bed. For some reason I I couldn't open my eyes. My arms were being held down, and I couldn't move my legs. I tried screaming, but nothing came out. I I could feel everything this person did to me. And it felt weird. I I was r@ped. It turns out it was Jessi's Step dad, he'd put drugs in our water and now he's serving a live time in prison.

I watched her eyes the whole time, she had a blank expression on. Robin ran up to her and gave her a huge hug. She started crying into her shoulder. I just felt like my heart got stabbed. I was frozen. And couldn't move. Her voice woke me up from my trance. .

Y/n: can we just go?

Eddie: your home or my trailer? .

Y/n: your trailer

Eddie: of course.

I walked her back to my van and got her settled, I then walked back to say goodbye to Robin, and gave Steve a glare. She shouldn't have been forced to tell me something like this. The car ride back to my trailer was pretty quiet. I held her hand close to my heart and didn't let go. She gave me a small smile. And finally spoke up

Y/n: Eddie?

Eddie: Darling?

Y/n: I I'm sorry I didn't tell you sooner

Eddie: why are you sorry, it's hard to tell someone something so traumatic. You have nothing to apologize for.

Her hand was still intertwined with mine next to my heart. I took her hand and kissed it. She smiled, which made me smile. 'God she's beautiful' I thought

The rest of the ride was silent.
