A Game to You

012

    I woke up the next morning to a piece of paper on Eddie's pillow,

   Went to school, didn't want to wake you up. Don't make plans later. - Love, Eddie

   I smiled at the note before placing it back down on his pillow. It was 1PM meaning that he would be back soon, I needed to get my car though. I'd just have to make it quick.

   I walked over to the phone and dialed Steve's number, "Hey Steve, it's Skye," I said as he picked up. "Hi, what's up," he asked. "Do you have time to come pick me up, I need to get my car," "Uh, yeah, yeah sure. I'll be there in 10." "Okay thank you," we hung up.

   I walked over to my bag and put a bra on, along with a tank top. I grabbed a pair of shorts and walked over to the mirror, fixing my hair. I put on my shoes and sat back down on his bed.

   After sitting for a few minutes I heard Steve honk from his car. I got up, grabbing my bag so I could pack more clothes while I was there.

   I ran out of the house, jumping into the front seat of Steve's car. "Hey," he said, "Hi." he drove off. "So what, you like live here now or something. Robin said she hasn't seen you stay the night at your own house in a week," he smiled looking at the road. "I don't live here, I guess not technically. I just like being with Eddie," he nodded.

   We had small conversations till he pulled up to my house, "Alright, thank you Steve," I said getting out of his car, "No problem, Blondie," I flipped him off as I walked up to the house.

   I ran upstairs to my room and emptied my bag. I picked out an outfit for the party tomorrow night, grabbed some more makeup so I could go all out for the party, grabbed some comfy clothes, then I grabbed dark maroon dress for whatever Eddie had planned tonight.

   I walked into the bathroom and grabbed my shampoo and conditioner so I could stop using all of his. I zipped up my bag and ran back out to my car.

   I drove to Eddie's, as soon as I parked I saw Max outside, feeding a dog. I walked into the house, putting my stuff into his room then I walked back out.

   "Aren't you supposed to be at school," I asked Max. "I'm sick," she fake coughed. "I see, well, I have a bit of time before Eddie comes home. Would you wanna hang out, I mean if you're not contagious," I joked. "Yeah," we walked back to her house.

   "Whose dog is that," I asked sitting on her bed. "A neighbors, they don't feed it so I always bring it leftovers," she replied. "That's nice." she nodded. "You seem a lot happier, over Jason so soon," she joked. "Yeah well, I've been hanging out with Eddie so," I smiled at her. "No shit, so y'all are like dating," she asked. "Not officially, but yeah pretty much," "I'm glad you're happy," she looked at me. "Me too," I smiled.

   Max and I hung out, played games, and talked for a while, before we hear someone banging on the door. Max opened the door, "Did you steal Skye," Eddie asked. "Skye, it's for you," she laughed. I walked out to the door and Eddie's whole demeanor changed, a smile appeared on his face as I hugged him. "I'll see you later," I looked at Max and she nodded.

   Eddie grabbed my hand and began running to the trailer. "Come on, come on, you have to get ready!" he yelled pulling my hand with him.

   When we got into the house he shut the door to his room and began kissing me. I put my hands on his waist as he cupped my face with his hands. He backed me up against the door. His tongue brushed my lip and I opened my mouth a bit. I could tell he was getting carried away with the kiss and so could he, he pulled away, breathing heavily and smiling. "Now get ready," he smiled down at me.

   "May I ask, for what," I looked over at him as he sat down on the bed. "A date," he played with his rings. "A date, you spoil me, Munson," I joked, slowly sitting on his lap and holding his hands. "Hey, HEY, no. As much as I would looove this," he paused, looking my body up and down, he cleared his throat looking back up at my eyes. "Go get ready before I change my mind and we don't have time to go on our date," I groaned dramatically before getting getting up.

   "I'm going to take a nap, kay?" he rolled over. "Okay," I walked over to my bag, taking out the dress. I grabbed a black lacy bra along with it. I took off the outfit I already had on and put on the bra, then the dress, then a pair of black converse. I grabbed the makeup bag I had packed and walked over to the mirror, putting some on. I grabbed a brush and brushed my hair.

   I opened the door to go use the bathroom and saw no sunlight shining from the window in the living room. It was dark out, how the hell did it take me that long. I used the bathroom then walked back into Eddie's room. I sat next to him on the bed, lightly shaking him, "Eddie, wake up," He looked up at me and smiled. "Uh let me change my shirt before we head out," I nodded and he got out of the bed. Taking off his shirt and putting on a black button up. "Wow," I said as he turned around. His jaw nearly hit the floor, "Shit Skye, you look.." he stared at me in awe. "What," I smiled walking towards him. "Fantastic, you look fantastic," he rested his hands on my waist and leaned down to kiss me. I pulled away, "Okay let's go to this date you have planned, yeah?" he smiled at me and began to walk out of his room as I followed.

    We got into the van and when we got close he stopped the car. "Okay close your eyes," I closed my eyes and he put his hand on my thigh, continuing the drive.

   When we got there he parked, "Keep your eyes closed and wait here," he got out of the van. I waited what felt like hours but in reality it was probably close to 10 minutes.

    He came around and opened the door, grabbing my hands. I opened my eyes as I stepped out of the car, "Hey no! I said close your eyes," he exclaimed. "Sorry, sorry," I close my eyes again. He stood behind me, holding onto my waist, guiding me. He stopped and rested his chin on my head. "Okay, open them," I opened my eyes to see a small blanket with Chinese take-out. I turned around and looked up at him, "Is Edward Munson... romantic," I joked. "He can be," he leaned down and kissed me softly.

   We walked over and sat down. "So what is this place," I asked. "Skull Rock, I come here when I need to think. It's one of my favorite places actually," he began to open some of the boxes. "Thank you for brining me here," I grabbed his hand. "Yeah, of course," I nodded. We began to eat.

   Once we were done I helped him clean up. We put everything in the back of his van. He shut the door, "One more thing," he grabbed my hand and I followed him. We sat on this large rock, his hand rested on my thigh and my head on his shoulder.

   "It's beautiful out here, Eddie," he rubbed his thumb on my thigh. "I know," we just sat there, admiring everything around us for a while.

   "Hey Skye," he asked softly. "Yeah?" I asked. "I know this is really cheesy, and it's not really my thing. Shit um, I don't know how to say-" I cut him off. "Are you flustered," I looked up at him, smiling. "Yeah, I guess I am. Anyways um, would you want to be... officially dating," he looked down at me nervously. "Like I say you're my boyfriend and you say I'm your girlfriend," I teased him. "Yeah, yeah, that, yeah," he began to ramble. "Yes Eddie, I would love to be officially dating," he looked at me and his breathing steadied. "Yeah?" he lightly laughed. I kissed him, I could feel him untense.

   Later we went back to the trailer. We showered and got ready for bed, I laid my head on his chest, "Ready for the party tomorrow night," I asked. "Well I have to be don't I," he joked. "Yes, yes you do," he laughed. "I love you," he said, not breaking his laughter. "Love you too," he leaned down and kissed my forehead.
