One Night and Forever

You're The Guy

It's been two weeks. Two weeks since Eddie got shot. Two weeks since Peter stole you away. When Billy brought him in he was barely conscious. The doctors didn't think he'd make it. But by some miracle he did. He pulled through. Wayne visited of course. Feeling relieved Eddie was okay. That he was alive. Eddie was grateful to be alive. But his thoughts clouded his happiness. Where did Peter take you? Are you okay? Are you even in Hawkins still? He hated being stuck in the hospital. Yes, the police were looking for you. Your dad to be refused to rest until you were found but of course, Peter left no clues as to where you could possibly be. Eddie's wild thoughts were interrupted by a nurse saying that Eddie has visitors who wanted to speak to him. Confused as he was he let the visitors in. Who could possibly want to visit him? He had no friends here

Steve, Robin, Nancy, Will, and Jonathon all walk into his room. They stand at the foot of his bed taking him in. The famous ex-band member of Corroded Coffin was here. To say they were shocked was the least of their worries. Steve had an inkling that Eddie was part of the reason you disappeared. He also thought that Eddie was this "guy" you kept mentioning 

"Who are you guys?" Eddie's eyes wander around his room looking at the people standing in front of him. He recognized a few

"This is Robin, my girlfriend Nancy, Will, and Jonathon. I'm Steve" Steve goes around the room introducing the group to Eddie

"Me and Jonathon are Y/N's brothers" Will added

"The three of us are their friends" Robin gestured to herself, Nancy and Steve

"Oh yea they did mention you lot" Eddie remembers you talking about your brothers and friends a lot during your time together. Even just thinking about you makes Eddie sad. He had you. You were right there. And then you were taken away

"How are you doing?" Steve gently asks

"Doctor says I'm doing well" Eddie just shrugs his shoulders. He wants to get out of here. Look for you

"Do you know where Y/N is? They haven't been showing up for work. Which is unlike them" Robin dives right in not even considering that Eddie might question why Robin thinks he knows where you are. If he did know he wouldn't be in here sulking that's for sure

"I spoke to Max and she said her brother Billy brought you here and Billy mentioned
Y/N called about you being hurt but they weren't at the scene when Billy arrived" Will explained for Eddie. Eddie was passed out when Billy spoke to the group. He had no idea where you were and he thought that was odd considering you were the one who called for help

"Yeah.... about that. They're the ones that helped clear my name. I don't know where they are. I'm sorry I wish I did" Eddie just tells them straight. They were going to find out anyway so why not now

"That's why they weren't accepting visitors and being all withdrawn all those months ago. I was wondering what was going on" Nancy's thoughts were running all over the place. You helped him. You were the one hiding and helping Eddie. Why couldn't tell her that you were helping him? Nancy already knew the answer to her own question. the fewer people who knew the better. She couldn't be mad at you for helping 

"They were helping you?" Robins asks the question the rest of the group were thinking

"They were the only ones who believed me" Eddie stated

"Okay, enough of the chitchat glad your names cleared by the way. But uh where are they?" Steve wanted to find you. Everyone was worried and they had no idea why you disappeared

" I told you. I don't know" Eddie says again

"What do you mean you don't know? You were with them!" Jonathons voice gets louder. He was the older brother. He was the one who had to protect you. He knew that you were perfectly capable of looking after yourself but he still felt responsible
