after we died (Eddie and Chrissy)

together again.

Eddie:
Man, seeing Dustin's sad little face was the last thing I wanted to see. But it was. And it was unchangeable. I figured my death was the end of the Munson name, and that the rest of eternity would be pitch black, no sound. Until a white blur appeared as I opened my eyes. I looked down to my beat up shoes and immediately took notice of the white sneakers that stood in front of me. I knew those shoes, I knew those green and yellow socks... And I knew that smile.

For some... weird ass of a reason, she was there. Chrissy Cunningham, queen of Hawkins High. I gazed into her eyes, with my jaw to the floor.

"Chrissy...?" I said scrunching my eyebrows. I watched her die, I watched her entire body break!? This is some weird, ass, shit. She started walking toward me, fidgeting with her hands.

"Eddie, I-I'm so sorry." She cried as she pressed her head onto my chest and wrapped her warm arms around me. I looked down to her in confusion...

"For.. what?" I asked. Still confused.

"Everything. Everything."

This was serious.
Before replying, I took notice of my surroundings. Nothing but a blazing sunset and boardwalk which we stood on. There were many others, not bothered by us at all, making me wonder if this was a daily occurrence. Chrissy's silky hair brushed my chin... I loved the feeling of her pressed against me. But was it really her?

"How is this possible? I watched you die? It was so real..." I uttered.

"So did I, we have a lot to talk about." She said, pushing away from me.

Chrissy:
It's been a while since I died. You kind of lose track of time in this place. That's the cool thing. The weird part is, when you get here, you learn and see everything you ever want to. Not only that, but you can replay your memories with just a blink of your eyes.

After discovering how I died, it took me a moment to process. All of these years... No one knew. I replayed the moment I died, poor Eddie was so scared. He really cared, he didn't deserve to die at all. He's a hero, it should've always been him. Not Jason.

I was observing the battle which took place on Earth, with the horrible feeling knowing I couldn't help. Especially once Eddie died, I wasn't there, yet, I cried my heart out.

When you die, you arrive to this fever dream of a place. Specifically, the dock leading to the endless ocean. As soon as Eddie faded away, I made my way to the dock, the dock is where all new comers arrive. I knew he'd be there in no time, so I rushed.

There he was. Eddie Munson. His messy long hair, his ring covered hands, it was him. I stared into his brown eyes smiling. This was the start of forever.

After giving a slight pep talk, I guided him to the board walk. He looked so confused, it was hilarious. That's one thing I loved about him. His expressions. Whether he was annoyed, confused, happy, he still managed to make me feel safe.
