New Girl In Town Eddie Munson X Reader Story

5.Interview

*Lunch*

   You follow Eddie's directions from his note. Looking around you finally see the lunch table but no Eddie anywhere. Sitting down at the table you hear leaves crumble around you a squirrel climbing a tree in front of you. The slight bit of noise scares you a little a hand hits your shoulder "shit!" Eddie jumps back "oh shit I'm sorry I had to tell the guys I wouldn't be there for lunch sorry for being late." You shake your head "I'm not normally this jumpy but in the forest alone is kinda scary, especially in a new town, why here of all places did you want to meet?"

   Eddie sits in front of you "y/n you're really really pretty I can't just meet you at a lunch table in the school someone will just start something about you sitting with the school freak" you laugh "Eddie you're not a freak. This school is full of freaks but not like they think. The whole cliques sitting together is freaky the oh you are pretty must date a jock is freaky. Where I'm from I'm a freak, everyone is a freak in their own way." 

"y/n how were you the freak at your school?"

"I just keep to myself I don't talk much to anyone I moved around a lot when I was younger and didn't make many friends so I sat alone reading being the theater geek. You would think New York was a place for me but it was just so fast pace I'm more of go with the flow type of person."

"Nicely put but I wouldn't see you as a freak very talented unless you mean freaky-" you shush Eddie "I'm gonna stop you there" Eddie laughs "I'm just messing with you y/n but I do mean that you're very talented." 

"How did you hear me anyway?" Eddie scoots closer to you. "We play D&D backstage normally I left some of my dice and Mike noticed you on stage we listened for a bit then left. I'm sure you'll get the lead." You go red "I mean if I got a part everyone would have found out anyway-." Eddie cuts you off and cups your face

"You mean you will get a part a huge part. If you don't I'll find a way to make sure you can get a good part."  He takes his hands off your face  "Sorry if that was weird." You shake your head "no it wasn't, thanks for that I gotta believe in myself more."

"I mean I know a thing or two about good music and good artists" He does a small air guitar. "You're in a band!" Eddie pumps his fist in the air. "Okay, I now trust you even more with my music taste" You give him a small smile.

"Maybe one day we, me and you, us two can get together again soon and I can bring my guitar you sing."

"You got yourself a date Eddie just give me the time and place." Eddie gives you a soft smile.  

"A date?" he raises his eyebrow playing with his hair and putting it in front of his face.

You get speechless stammering your words"I mean you know what I mean... Do I even know what I mean" 

"You don't have to get nervous about it I get it."

"By the way the shirt is great thank you, I'm gonna wear it soon I already have an idea on how to style it all up."

As time passes by you and Eddie get to know each other so much you missed the bell for lunch to be over.

"Oh shit what time is it?" Eddie looks at his watch "It looks like school is almost over."

"Shit shit shit, Eddie I very much enjoyed this conversation, losing track of time, and skipping my last couple of classes but will you do the biggest favor for me."

"Anything"

"I have an interview I have to be at soon can you drop Dustin off at his"

"Yeah, Go!" You get up giving Eddie a hug "Thank you so much I owe you big time." You running out of the forest off to the school's parking lot.

*Eddie POV*

"Henderson let's go," Eddie says patting Dustin's shoulder as he walks to his van. "Where are we going? y/n is supposed to take me home."

"Sorry bud she asked me to take you home she lost track of time and had to be somewhere." Eddie gets into his van starting it up.

"Wait how do you know all this? I didn't even know she had an interview."

"uh she caught me at the end of the day asking if I could grab you and of course to pay a good friend back for joining our campaign I said yes"

"Okay... "

*Y/n POV*

"Hi Sorry I got here as fast as I can!" You walk into the Family video

"It's okay! I'm Robin, Steve said you'd be coming." She reaches her hand out to shake it you reach out back shaking her hand.

"Honestly I don't know how to do an interview the actual manager told me to do it because he didn't want to and there is way too much testosterone around here so when can you start?"

"Well, this is the easiest interview I have ever done, one question. Still in High school so how flexible can a schedule be like if I get into the school musical."

"That I can answer easily steve just ask him he always wants a few extra dollars." 

"See you on Saturday then?"

"Welcome to the crew y/n."

You drive off going home as you walk in you see Eddie sitting on the couch next to Dustin "Oh hi! I didn't think you'd be here"

"Oh I'm just giving Dustin a little watch while you were at your interview, how did it go?" You laugh "it went great I start on Saturday, so thanks for the unneeded babysitting. I think Dustin could have watched himself."

"I've been telling him to go for like 15 minutes but he insisted on staying" 

"Well I gotta get some sleep got to get to school early so Dustin you better be ready"

"Doesn't the cast list come out tomorrow?" Eddie points at you "yeah it does I just want to see it as early as so it can determine how good of a day I'll be having a good or bad day" you laugh 

"I guarantee you'll have a fantastic day" Eddie starts to walk out the door 

"I'll believe in you have a good night Eddie"

"Night Henderson's" Eddie leaves 

"What the hell was all of that" you look at Dustin confused "what"

"Don't what me. Is something going on between you two? I thought you had a boyfriend in New York the one you brought to the wedding?" You roll your eyes "That ended weeks ago I'm not dating that guy anymore. Eddie is just a friend I'm not sure I want a relationship at the moment but if life happens life happens. Good night Dustin" You leave going into your room.

"Y/N! Wait WHAT DO YOU MEAN?!"

"GOODNIGHT DUSTIN"
