Freaks// Eddie Munson Fanfic

Different

"So I'm not going to be forbidden to see you or anything right?" Eddie asks trailing behind me in the lunch line.

"Mm, don't think so," I say smiling at the lunch lady, grabbing my food.

"Don't think so?!" He asks loudly.

I notice people stop and stare at us.
I look at him with my brows furrowed from his loud outburst.

"Sorry," he says looking down.

I chuckle and turn back to grab my last selection in the line.

I finish getting my food and I feel him rush next to me.

Everyone in school pretty much knows we're together. They love watching us like it's so crazy. We don't care though and it's died down. No one cares or looks our way that much anymore unless Eddie makes an outburst like he just did in the lunch line.

"Well, he didn't care. He was fine with it but that was also before he saw you smoking a cigarette sooo I don't know about that."

"Your family against that?" he asks.

"Mm, well my mom smokes and we don't care but it's not exactly a thing to look up to," I say and he stays quiet following me as I make my way out to robin.
"Sorry," I say to him with a little cheeky smile.

He just pulls a forced smile.

I start to wonder if he's going to join me.

I couldn't help but see his friends look at me waving their hands in the air looking annoyed. In a way questioning me about what he's doing. I just shrugged and kept walking.

Eddie didn't pay any mind to it or look at them.

"I doubt he'll care but.."

"But?" He repeats seriously.

I look at him as he seems a bit stressed over this.

I found it adorable but also sad. I didn't want to tell him he had to talk to my brother.

"Nothing," I wave him off. "I'll tell you later," I tell him as we then turn the corner and I spot Robin.

She sees me and smiles but it quickly fades as she sees Eddie next to me.

"Wha-you have to tell me now. I can't wait. I'm gonna be stress smoking all day and I don't think you want to kiss me when I reek of cigarettes."

I chuckle and turn to him.

"You always do love," I say before sitting next to robin.

He stays standing, looking conflicted.

He looks happy and taken back at the same time since that's the first time I've called him anything like that. He also looks very frustrated I'm not telling him. He's a bundle of emotions.

"Trouble in paradise," Robin asks mockingly.

Eddie just flips her off.

They don't like each other very much.

"Be nice," I tell him and he just sighs leaning against the wall.

Robin just smiles in amusement.

"He wants to meet you," I say nonchalantly opening my little plate of corn.

It goes quiet and then Robin speaks up.

"Who?"

I look at Eddie who looks very much upset.

"My brother," I say looking at her.
