Steve's (From the Present) POV

I stood there in the middle of the students, impressed by Eddie's singing. I looked at him as he sang, hoping he would look back at me. He opened his eyes gently.

"I keep forgetting I should let you go..." He sang with his calm voice. I looked deeply in his hazel brown eyes

Eddie's (Middle School) POV

I heard someone come in the Auditorium, but, I didn't mind it. I kept on singing with a calm voice. I opened my eyes gently.

"I keep forgetting I should let you go..." I saw Steve and almost gasped.

Something struck my head and it made me change the lyrics of the song I (For my AU only. Can't Remember To Forget You by Shakira ft. Rihanna) made and that left my bandmates shock

"But when you look at me..." Gareth coughed a little

"The only memory..." Jeff whispered to me "Eddie! What're you doing!?"

That's when it hit me, a memory of me... Dying? Saying I love you to Steve and a boy named Dustin?  And I kissed Steve?

"Is us kissing in the moonlight..." I looked as Steve as I was saying the message to him

Steve's (From the Present) POV

I looked at Eddie and I was surprised. He look more confused than ever.

"What the hell...?" I whispered to myself thinking why was he so confused

Eddie's (Middle School) POV

I snapped completely. Things I haven't even done came up to my mind, making me crazy and I wasn't able to sing properly. I felt dizzy a little bit and passed out on the floor.

"Eddie! Hey, wake up..." Gareth's voice got higher and higher as I closed my eyes

I woke up in the clinic seeing Steve on one side and my friends on the other. I felt so hurt that I barely even moved.

"What fucking happened?" All of my friends sighed in relief

"God! You scared us..." Gareth said as he was still shaking

"Can I talk to Steve... Alone?" My friends smiled and left the room

"Are you ok?" Steve asked with a faded smile on his face

"I guess..?" I felt more different than before. Future memories hitting my mind

"Did I die?" I asked Steve

"You're alive right now!" Steve chuckled

"No.. In the future. I'll ask you again! Did I die?" Steve looked away

"Are you from the future, Steve?" I asked while groaning in pain

"Why do you ask...?" Steve got a little bit scared

"Some stuff that never happened yet hit my mind a while ago" I spotted my friends standing on the edge of the room in horror

"Fuck it, Eddie." Steve said as he was just about to stand up. I stopped him

"What happened!? How did I die!?" Steve got angry and turned around

"You know what? If you want to know, it was your fault you died..." I shook my head

"No! You're lying!" Steve looked like he had enough

"Shut up! I told you not to be a hero and you still believed in hero shit! You died because of you wanting to be a hero, that's just bullshit, Eddie. You did not die because of love, you only cared for yourself" I just sat there, crying as Steve left.

Steve's POV

I ran outside, crying because of the pain I felt. My heart felt heavy. I closed my eyes and woke up. I was back in my present room. I was back in my normal life.

"Thank you, God!" I went downstairs and saw Robin

"Hey, are you ok..?" Robin asked 

"Never been better..!" Nancy set plates on the tables

"Anyways, what are you guys even doing here?" Robin looked confused

"This is Nancy's house... Have you forgotten?" Robin replied

"Oh right.. I was wondering if you'd like to go to Eddie's grave?" Mike put on his shirt as he went down the stairs

"We can go, if you want" Nancy glanced at Mike and looked back at the food

"Wrong shirt, Mike" We all looked at Mike's shirt

"Fuck" We all laughed at him

"Hurry up! We're gonna go to the cemetery right after we eat!" Robin and I went to the table and started eating
