California Dreamin' | Eddie Munson

Seven

Eddie Munson woke up next morning beside a still sleeping Lila Harrington, who kept her promise. Eddie slowly and quietly rolled out of the bed trying not to wake the girl who was creeping back into his life, and headed straight for the kitchen area. Lila woke up to see the other side empty as stretched out her arm across the bed as she heard the sound of something dropping and jokingly shouted, "you dropped that." As she got out of the bed, making her way to the kitchen area.

"Did I wake you?" Eddie asked, turning to look at Lila who was now standing at the entrance of the small kitchen.

"No, I was already up by time. What did you even drop?" Lila asked, as she moved to leaning against the counter top, looking around the small home before her eyes landed on Eddie.

"Oh it was just this." Eddie chuckled lightly, as he picked the random object off the floor.

"I don't even know how am I supposed to talk to the three of them after last night." Lila sighed heavily, as she rested her chin against her palm.

"Surely it can't be that bad right? I'm sure you'll be fine, you'll work it out." Eddie said, trying to reassure the girl. "I mean we worked it out, didn't we?" He said, while passing her a glass of water.

"I mean yeah but there is are still more to say, we haven't fully talked it out have we?"

"There's more?" Eddie questioned.

"I think there's still stuff that needs to be talked about but I'm ready for that." Lila said, before her mouth met the rim of the glass and drank.

"Oh?"

"Yeah, but that's for future me to deal with not right now." Lila said, putting down the empty glass, watching Eddie take and place it in the sink.

After sorting herself out with the spare clothes that she always kept in her car for whenever she would stay over at Stella or Chrissy's house, today it came in handy. The action didn't go unnoticed by Eddie who watched her with a puzzled look take the bag out the trunk before coming back inside, already questioning her. "I'm sorry you keep a spare bag of clothes in your car?" Eddie says, slightly confused by the girl.

"You have no idea how many times I end up staying overnight at Stella or Chrissy's." Lila says, defending her action.

"Okay."

"Exactly, also it meant I didn't have to wear my last night outfit today because I just know there's spilled drink on it."

"Better not be, you wore those to sleep in my bed."

"It was probably dry. Your bed will be fine, it's not the end of the world." Lila scoffed.

"Probably dry?"

"Bloody hell Munson stop being dramatic."

"You're one to talk."

"Bitch!"

"Bitch."

"Eddie!"

"Lila!"

"Stop mocking me."

"I am not mocking you, stop being dramatic."

"Bitch" Lila said, as she moved to pick up a nearby pillow from the bed, Eddie catching her in the action.

"Don't even think about it" Eddie says, pointing as he watched the brunette's hand slowly inch closer for it. "Lila?"

"Eddie?" Lila said as she grabbed the pillow and instantly threw it, aiming for the face. "Oops."

"You fucking shit."

"Oh fuck." Lila muttered before she found herself running quickly out of his bedroom and into the living area where she tried dodging Eddies every moves. "Don't you even think about it." She said, sternly.
