Falling for The Freak (Eddie Munson)

The plan ~without a capital 'P'~

Jason's POV

"Hey, babe." I smiled over at Chrissy and earned myself a smile back as she walked into the room.

"Hey." Her eyes hit the floor, telling me that something was upsetting her. 

"What's wrong?" Chrissy sat beside me on the couch and forced a smile. 

"I'm just worried about (Y/N). Eddie seemed really scared that something happened to her." My heart skipped a beat as I became anxious. "What if she got hurt?" Chrissy looked over at me with tears in her eyes, breaking my heart. 

"I bet she's fine." I tried to reassure her as I rested my arm around her shoulders.

"I don't know, Jason. If Eddie is that freaked out, I think we should go help him look for her." Chrissy bit her lip as she batted her eyelashes, knowing it would work on me. I tried my best to stand my ground. I took a deep breath in and rested my other hand on my knee as I thought about what to say. 

"Why do you think he's so freaked out?" I have no idea why I was asking, but I felt like maybe it was important to know. What would make Chrissy believe that? 

"Well, for one, he came up to me and asked me if I knew where she was, which was weird because we don't talk." My hand on Chrissy's shoulder tightened as I thought about that freak talking to her. 

"That freak talked to you? Did he put his hands on you or-"

"Jason, you're hurting me." Chrissy cut me off. I looked over at her and released my grip. She then scooted foreword, resting her feet on the ground. 

"Sorry." I mumbled, ashamed that I had hurt her. 

Chrissy's POV

I was worried about (Y/N)'s whereabouts, but all Jason could think about was Eddie talking to me. It was as if he was showing me another side of him and I hated it. 

I looked down at the ground as Andy came over to talk to Jason, distracting him from me. I wiped the single tear that ran down my face with my sleeve as I quietly sniffled. It was breaking my heart seeing him turn into another person. A person that I didn't want to be with. 

Our relationship, in the beginning, was beautiful. He treated me like a queen and always chose me over everything else, but then he became the captain of the basketball team. He became more cocky and distant, which only got worse when (Y/N) got into town. I'm not blaming anything on her, but I'd like to know why he's changed. 

"Chrissy." I turned my head over to look at Jason as he stood beside Andy. I raised my eyebrows as I kept my mouth shut. I was afraid that if I spoke then I would break down. I mean, it really isn't easy talking to someone you loved for years, who you're slowly falling out of love with. 

"Andy needs help with something. I'll see you tomorrow, alright?" I forced a smile and nodded before watching him walk out of the abandoned building he made into a hangout spot. 

As I sat there by myself, I thought about what I should do. Everything in my life was crumbling down all at once, adding onto my already depressed state of mind. That day with (Y/N) was the happiest I had felt in such a long time. I felt like I could be myself around her without having to keep up with my reputation as the cheer captain. Juliet brought that same attitude into the cheer squad, making practices much easier.

With the thought of (Y/N) in my head, I decided on going to her house and seeing if she was home or maybe even Juliet. I couldn't sit around and do nothing. 

Eddie's POV

"Eddie?" I turned around to find Dustin looking over at me with worry. 

"What's up, Henderson?" I quickly shoved the tear away from my face before turning my body towards him.
