Based very loosely on All Too Well by Taylor Swift.

No one really plans to wake up at 3am from a deep and perfect sleep. Marguerite found herself rubbing sleep from her eyes and pushing herself out of her blanket burrito when she saw Eddie had slipped out of bed at some point.
She shivered as the cold floor made contact with her bare feet. She tip toed past Wayne's room, not wanting to wake him.
The man she was searching for was rummaging through the refrigerator humming to himself what suspiciously sounded like Girls Girls Girls by Mötley Crüe.

"What're you doing, Eds?" She sighed slumped against the wall.
"I was practically starving laying in bed with you. So here I am looking for something half decent in this fridge." Eddie responded not moving his head from its position in the refrigerator.
"Just come back to bed... it's all lonely in there without you." She whined
"Can't. My stomach will likely eat itself if I don't get some food." Eddie said, finally emerging with his prize.

Marguerite rolled her eyes as he proudly flashed a half eaten TV dinner from a few days ago.
Eddie quickly shoved his snack into the microwave before moving to wrap his arms around his girlfriend who was bundled up in a big flannel of his and a pair of old shorts.

"Dance with me, Maggie." Eddie smiled
"Nooo! I want to go back to bed." Marguerite groaned as they began to sway back and forth.

Eddie twirled Marguerite around as she tried to pull him back towards his room.

"Oh my god you suck at singing." Marguerite groaned as Eddie had begun to sing the first few lines of Can't Help Falling In Love by Elvis.
"What's wrong? Thought you loved The King?" Eddie laughed
"Yeah I love The King as in Elvis Presley. You, good sir, are butchering his work." Marguerite huffed
"Oh please. I'm way better than him. Hotter too." Eddie claimed
"Ugh whatever. Eat your food and come back to bed." Marguerite said before pushing him off and shuffling back to Eddie's room.

Eddie let out a long whistle as she left.
"My girlfriend has the best ass in all of Hawkins." He said
"Shut up and eat your damn food!" Wayne yelled from his room, clearly unhappy about the two teens being awake.
