86 Baby This Is Our Year

Chapter 3 - Everything Has Changed

Chapter song choice for Eddie & Chrissy,

Chrissy Wake Up ( I mean I had no other option really XD).

Sitting for a few seconds until the engine died down Chrissy waited for Eddie to get out of the van before she stepped into the cold night air to take in the view of the Forest Hills trailer park.

Surprisingly it was actually nicer than she had been expecting from the conversations Chrissy had overhead from people at school before.

Neither Chrissy nor Eddie noticed on the outskirts of the site that a student called Max Mayfield was watching them walk alongside one another.

Then again even if Max had said anything most people would have never believed it for a moment. The gossip rumours probably couldn't even fathom that one of the most popular girls of Hawkins high was spending the evening with Eddie Munson!

HellClub freak leader and the head cheerleader hanging out certainly was not what people would have expected, especially in a small conservative town like Hawkins.

Eddie felt his nerves begin to stir into life as he began to walk Chrissy towards his tailer home. Compared to the places most of his peers lived in this was a definite step down.

However actually it wasn't too bad a place to be and the neighbours did sometimes look out for one another round here.

Every so often they would have parties on site and Eddie knew most of the people by name now.

Wayne was well liked as well which meant that most people were at least polite to Eddie and never gave him any issues.

Since his mothers death Forest Hills trailer park was the only home he had and actually it was pretty cool here so he didn't really care what others thought.

For some reason though with Chrissy he really was hoping that she wouldn't mind it here.

Especially if whatever tonight was would turn into a more regular thing.

"This is uh my castle"

He spoke quietly before quickly darting forward and leaning down slightly to get the door for Chrissy.

Eddie knew it wasn't much in terms of a joke but actually he could tell Chrissy was still on edge and he thought that continued humour might help her relax.

Beside she was the queen of Hawkins High in his eyes, so why couldn't he just pretend for one night that she was here to stay in his castle!

In theory he supposed if he lived here that made him King of the castle and heck he definitely liked the bloody sound of that.

Being the leader of HellClub, D & D, and the drug school scene of Hawkins he supposed in a sense did make him a bit of a king anyways.

Perhaps not a traditional one in the sense of the American school system but in terms of having power and respect Eddie certainly ticked those boxes.

Before going inside Eddie made sure to take a extra moment to appreciate Chrissy walking through his door now.

How this day had led him here he had no bloody idea but he thanked whatever rock and rock gods there were for it now.

Even in her simple cheer costume Chrissy looked like a feast for his senses and Eddie knew now that perhaps he might actually have a slim opportunity to tempt Chrissy away from Jason.

This might be his only chance to spend some time with her before graduation and Eddie decided in that moment he wasn't going to sit back and waste it.

Which was more of a chance than he ever thought he had this morning and hell perhaps he could actually convince her to come and see one of Corroded Coffin shows.
