I woke up the next morning to the sun peaking through our blinds. I looked over and Eddie was still asleep, I inched towards him draping my arm across his waist. I titled my head up just looking at him. His dark lashes rested above his cheeks as his chest filled with air. Through his sleep Eddie wrapped his arms around me, he grunted as he shifted his body and laid on his side.

"Good morning." I mumbled running my arms up his back.
"Hm-" he grunted. "Morning beautiful."

"How can you tell I'm beautiful with your eyes closed?" I laughed.
"Because you're always beautiful." He slowly opened one eye looking at me. "-See, beautiful." Eddie's morning voice rasped against the back of his throat. He closed his eyes again bringing me closer to his embrace, our bodies were warm under our thick comforter.

I looked through the cabinets in our kitchen, I slumped down on my feet as I came to the realization we didn't have much food. I turned my head looking over at Eddie. He sat on the couch and straddled a box of Honey-Combs

"Where the hell-did you take those from your trailer?" I laughed sitting on the arm rest of the couch

"Where the hell-did you take those from your trailer?" I laughed sitting on the arm rest of the couch.
"Yeah-we need milk." He laughed shoveling a scoop full of cereal into his mouth.
"We need food!" I laughed sitting next to him. I extended out my hand in-front of Eddie. He gently shook the box over my hand, a few honey-combs fell out and I shoved it into my mouth.

"Let's go then." He laughed looking at me. Eddie and I both gathered up our stuff and got ready to go the store. I grabbed my keys but handed them to Eddie, he looked at me confused.
"Why don't we take my van?" He asked opening the door.

"I'm parked behind you but my car has more space for bags." I explained closing the door behind us. I grabbed my keys quickly and locked the door.

Eddie and I drove through town, we lived right outside of Hawkins, we didn't know where to go so we drove to a local grocery store in Hawkins. Once we pulled into the parking lot Eddie parked the car and we began to get out.

"M'lady-" He smiled holding out his hand.
"My dungeon master." I laughed looking at him. I felt my hand tug back, looking back I saw Eddie standing there with his mouth parted open.
