It's Always Been You [Eddie Munson]

XXVIII

5 months later

"Welcome home." Eddie smiled as he brought my boxes filled with my belongings inside the house and i smiled at the thought of waking up next to him every day for the rest of our relationship, a few months ago he officially asked me to be his girlfriend and i very much agreed, i spent most of my time at his house and he ended up suggesting that i moved in with him, at first i thought it was a joke but he continued with the idea for a week and we finalized the decision after some steamy sex, basically meaning he fucked me to my senses because that's when i realized i wanted to be with him most of the time, i had typically gotten a job at Hawkins High, teaching physics and their gym teacher and even though i haven't studied any psychology, i have been asked to help the children that have been mentally struggling, also tutoring after school for those who have been struggling while Eddie had been working less hours at the plantation and spending more time at home with me.

"I've been home every time i was with you." I helped him carry in some of my things, i didn't have to bring much because he already had it all, two months ago he got an promotion and was now in the loop with the bosses which was a great upgrade for him, he had been invited to three work dinners and i tagged along for two of them after he forced me to go with, things have been going extremely well for us the last month and i was just excited on the new beginning of our relationship, Karen was concerned that i would get bored of him because how fast we were moving but i could never get bored of this man.

"That's all princess." He kissed my forehead as he walked past me with a box in his arms and i smiled watching him walk in our room. "Thanks honey." I yelled from the living room and he poked his head out from behind the doorway, "Honey?" He repeated my words and i grinned, nodding my head which made him smile widely, "I love you." He went back inside while i sat on the couch, taking in my new home while Luna ran around, jumping up on the couches going back and forth. "Aren't you going to say it back?" He walked in the room and fell down on the couch next to me, his hand on my thigh. "I love you too Edward." I leaned my head against the couch, looking at him as he smiled, his eyes sparkling as he looked at me, his hair was slowly starting to grow back with a small beard making it's way.

If i got told three years ago that i would end up living with Edward Munson, i would have laughed so hard the whole world would have heard me or if someone told me that some random hookup turned into a serious relationship, i would have called a mental institution because never have i ever thought that I'd be here with him and love him the way i do, admire his love for a fantasy game and how his face lit up talking about D&D, how he would play around with his guitar and how he would smack my hands if i brought them close to it.

A full two years ago i was wondering if i knew what love was, now i cannot imagine not knowing, it was him, it's always been him.

"Penny for those thoughts?" His eyes were scanning mine and i bit the inside of my cheek, "Just you." he squeezed my thigh, "Flattery works princess." He gave me a lopsided smile leaning forward and planted a kiss on my cheek, "I'm not cooking tonight." I grinned and he groaned,  throwing his head back. "No one beats your food" He reasoned and i shook my head, "I've been making food for three days in a row, it's your turn now." He rolled his eyes, removing his hand from my thigh and moving his body so that he was faced away from me, his arms crossed over his chest which made me laugh, "We can go eat out?" I offered and he nodded, slowly turning around with his head on my lap, "Maybe i can eat you out?" He smirked, mischief glistening in his brown eyes, "I'm good thanks." His smirk faltered, a scowl on his face, "Sometimes i think you don't love me." I gasped at his words, slapping his chest "Don't ever say shit like that again, you know i love you." He nodded, still a pout on his face as he turned his head, biting on my jean that was above my crotch.
