Flashback backstory: You and your best friend were dating. You were 14 and didn't know what was real and what was forced. You thought you and him would be together forever. Then your mum told you the family was moving to Hawkins to get away from Lonnie. You knew in your heart this was the end. You also knew you didn't love him the way he wanted you to. But he wouldn't let you leave unless you said what he wanted to hear.
"Marry me" his eyes piercing yours. In his eyes, you saw lust and desire. But then again you were 14 and knew nothing of what true love was
"I'm moving away we won't see each other" you try to convince him. He should move on to finding someone that will stay with him. Because you knew you wouldn't
"Promise me we will be married when we're older. I love you" He's desperate to keep you—his obsession growing stronger by the minute.
"I promise we can get married one day" you laugh hoping he's joking. How could you keep this kind of promise at 14?
" I'll come and find you" his voice filled with the determination that kind of scared you.
"I promise one day it'll be us against the world" you knew it wouldn't be but whatever you needed to say to keep him happy.
You shake your head at the memory. It couldn't be him. He isn't capable of murder. Then you remembered what he did when a guy looked at you wrong. Ended up in the hospital with a broken arm and nose. You look over at Eddie and notices he's looking at you. His eyes filled with concern and worry
"Okay stop looking at me like that!" you exclaim. Why does he get to look at you with his big brown puppy dog eyes telling you he's worried about you? It's hard enough concealing how you feel but when he looks at you, like that it gives you hope that it could happen. Maybe
"Well someone broke in and they're after you for some reason" He cleans up the rest of the broken plate in front of him while you clean up in front of you.
"Yeah okay, it's weird! But I have work this afternoon and I've got to get us dinner" You list the things you need to do tonight. It sounds odd saying 'us' but again it sounded so nice.
"You're making us sound like an old married couple," he says smiling at you. that goddamn smile.
"Shut up! We're not married... And you've probably got a lineup of people just waiting to marry you. A bunch of stunning models no doubt" You feel your heart constrict when you say that. It's true. As if Eddie would ever look at you the way models get looked at. With desire, passion, and love.....
"Yeah well, the one person I'm interested in doesn't seem that interested in me" He shrugs his shoulders and looks at you.
"Well, whoever that is is missing out. Despite all of this *You gesture to all of him* you're a pretty good guy" It's true. He's probably the best guy you know. But you wouldn't tell him that. Can't grow his ego even more than it is.
"I don't know if I should be offended or be thankful" he laughs
"Ow shit" You yelp in surprise
"Hey! you okay? What did you do?" He instantly drops what he's doing and comes to your side immediately
"I sliced my hand on the shard of the plate," you say softly
"Let me have a look..." he whispers. He takes hold of your hand and you love how gentle he is with you. You could get used to this...But you know you shouldn't
*It's a long slice down the middle of your hand. Blood is oozing out and won't stop*
"Where's your first aid kit?" he doesn't think you need stitches but it needs to be wrapped up
