She's mine

"Come on. We should go."

I looked at Eddie nodding my head as we walked away.

"It'll be good you know? You will pass these finals and graduate, while Billy starts college and in no time at all everything will be perfect."

I looked at Eddie smiling as we were walking slowly down the street.

"Yeah I know. I should have just went with him but know matter how much I wanted to go with him and max. I'm just honestly not ready to leave Hawkins for good. I'm definitely not ready to leave Steve yet."

Eddie smiled draping his arm around my shoulders.

"I think you and Steve saying goodbye is gonna hurt you the most."
"Yeah no kidding. I know Steve's right though. We need to find where we both belong and be our own seperate people, but I've always lived close to Steve. Even when we were little before we came to Hawkins. Steve was always around."

Eddie looked down at me kissing the top of my head. "It will all be okay and work out. You'll be happy and so will Steve."

I nodded my head as we kept walking "yeah I know. We just have to pass these finals."
"We will. I'm sure of it." Eddie said with a faint laugh.

When Eddie and I got back to my house we went straight into studying. We spent the rest of the day in my bedroom studying and snacking.

"I gotta go. It's getting late but I'll see you tomorrow at school."

I looked up from the notes nancy made for us and smiled at Eddie.

"Want a ride? It's a few miles."
"Yeah sure why not."

I closed the notebook smiling and grabbing my keys. About ten minutes later I pulled up to Eddie's dropping him off.

"See you tomorrow Munson."

Eddie got out of my car and smiled "see you tomorrow Harrington."

I waited until Eddie got into his house before I pulled off heading home. When I got back home I spent another hour studying before I finally laid down for bed. It definitely felt weird not having Billy next to me. I tossed and turned for hours. Not being able to sleep.

I was only asleep for about two hours before my alarm clock went off waking me up for school. As soon as I heard the clock I groaned deeply.

"UGHHHH!!!!"

I hit my alarm button shutting it off and I slowly made my way to the bathroom. My shower was long but I didn't over do it. After I was finished with getting ready for school I grabbed my things and heading downstairs.

I was only four bites into my breakfast before I felt off.

"Okay well guess I'm done." I mumbled as I tossed my breakfast into the trash with a disgusted look on my face and feeling in my stomach.

"Morning sweetheart."

I looked over at Eddie as he was smiling walking over to my locker.

"Hi." I said lightly. Which made Eddie raise his eyebrows.

"What's wrong?"

I looked at Eddie shaking my head at his question as I shut my locker.

"Nothing I just don't feel good."
"Are you okay?" He asked me.

I looked at Eddie smiling faintly "yeah I'm fine. Don't worry about me. Probably just a stomach bug or something. I'll be okay."

Eddie smiled walking me to class. After the few minute walk he hugged me.
