Push And Pull - Eddie Munson

Eddie 'The Freak' Munson

"DUSTIN LET'S GO! WE ARE GOING TO BE LATE!" you screamed, waiting for your little shit of a brother only to hear him trip and fall as he comes around the corner. "Nice one Dingus now let's go!" You nagged with a huff of a laugh at your brother's expense. "God damn y/n! I'm here! Who pissed you off?" Dustin said, walking out the door only to seal his lips when he felt you glaring at him.

You made it to school with 5 minutes until the first bell, groaning you got out of the car. To your annoyance, you heard the familiar rumble of a certain someone's van pull up next to you. Trying to ignore the footsteps behind you, you kept walking, groaning when a hand landed on your shoulder.

"Good morning m'lady." "Go away Munson, I'm not in the mood for your bullshit today." With that you walked into the school, running through the halls to get to your locker, shoving your bag in and grabbing your books. Just as you closed your locker you hear the first bell ring.

Fan-fucking-tastic.

You walk into first period, hoping to sneak past the teacher before they realized you were there. "Ms. Henderson." Damnit, so close. Slowly turning around you look at the teacher, pulling the nicest attitude you could muster. "Yes?" You replied already knowing what was about to come. "You're late. What's today's excuse?" You froze, knowing if you got detention again that your mom would flip. "I'm really sorry! My brother woke up late, then I had to stop for gas!" Your teacher sighed, knowing that you're mom is constantly working and how unorganized Dustin can be. "Alright, go to your seat and try to make it tomorrow please." "Yes of course thank you so much."

Time skip to lunch...

You left study hall to begin your walk to the cafeteria. Trudging through the halls you saw your brother and his cult up ahead, immediately recognizing the ring leader walking backwards while talking to the group about some campaign. Putting your head down, you continued to walk through the halls, successfully making to the lunch room unnoticed. You went through the line and sat down at your usual table. "Hey Jason where is Chrissy? I need her help studying." You said looking up from your untouched tray. "Um I couldn't tell yo-" "-LONG AS YOUR INTO BAND.. OR SCIENCE.. OR PARRRTIIIIESS.."

Oh you have got to be kidding me.

You thought as you looked up to see Eddie walking on top of his group's table toward your table. "OR A GAAAAME WHERE YOU TOSS BALLS INTO LAUNDRY BASKETS!!" he yelled looking directly at Jason as he stood up. "You want something freak?" Eddie looked at you, ignoring Jason as he held his fingers up like devil horns, sticking his tongue out and making a weird growling noise. "prick." Jason said under his breath as he sat down.

Eddie winked at you and smirked before yelling across the room once again. "Hey Y/N! What do you wanna do later!? Play DND with us 'freaks'?!" "In your dreams Munson!" "Oh trust me babe! My dreams could be worse!" He yelled before getting off the table and sitting down. You rolled your eyes thinking back to the comment Eddie had made, realizing what he meant. You dumped your tray, not feeling hungry and went to the bathroom, hiding out in there until the bell rang.

{Quick switch to Eddie POV}

After I sat down I watched as Y/N took her tray up and dumped it the left the cafeteria. "-so we were just.. thinking that maybe.. you could.. " I looked over to Henderson and Wheeler as they kept trying to explain something to me about how Sinclair has been taken by the dark side. "-postpone! The campaign." Wheeler finished for Dustin, immediately my head flew up. "You want to.. Postpone. The campaign?" I said throwing my almonds at them. I stood up and walked over behind them, grabbing their shoulders and standing them up while I spoke. "There are plenty of people in this school. Just go find someone to fill in for Sinclair!" I said pushing them forward.

{Back to your POV}

Time skip to after school...

You start your walk to the parking lot to head home. Just as you were about to reach your car Dustin and Mike come running up to you out of breath. You stood there in silence waiting for them to talk. "Y- Y/N- we.. need to ask.. you something." Dustin huffed out starting to stand up straight. "Umm okay? Make it quick dude I wanna go home." You said skeptically.

"Ummm ok so we kinda need a substitute for Lucas because he has his basketball game and I remember that I taught you how to play DnD a couple years ago however I know you don't play and you hate my friends but we already asked everyone else in the school and they all said no and if we don't get a sub then we will quite literally get murdered so you are our last hope so please please please just-" he ranted, continuing until he took a breath to which you interrupted.

"HAH! You really think I'll save your ass for some stupid game? Think again loser." "Y/N PLEASE YOU DON'T UNDERSTAND!" You scoffed and thought through your options. On one hand, you could possibly be seen with the school's freaks and lose everyone. On another hand, Dustin had a point. It had been years since you last played DnD. And you were hella good at it too. Seeing the look on your face that indicates you're thinking, Dustin continues. "So? Will you sub in for Lucas?"
