Remember I Brought Her Up- And You Told Me I Was Paranoid. (Eddie Munson)

Song: Traitor - Olivia Rodrigo

(Warning: Angst, cheating, fighting, just. Eddie fucked up- big time.)

Eddie was currently sat down on the couch in his trailer, silent.

There were obvious tears sitting in his eyes, threatening to fall at any moment.

His hand was resting on the back of his neck, his brown guilty eyes staring into space to avoid your gaze.

You were standing in front of him, the only thing blocking you and him was the small coffee table.

All you could do right now was sob, just sob your heart out.

You didn't know what to do- your stomach turned into a tight feeling, making you feel nauseous as you stared at the guilty man in front of you.

"I thought you loved me!-" you cried out, Eddie finally bringing his glossy brown eyes to look into yours.

He didn't say anything, he just stared, the guilt dripping off him like sweat on a hot day.

Eddie had just gotten home, he had been distant recently with you, and he had been hanging out with this one chick that worked at the arcade a lot.

You were suspicious about it but kept quiet, just ignoring the obvious red flags.

You had tried to bring it up in the past- but he would just shrug it off, telling you that you were just thinking too much, or he would get really defensive and upset.

But now that was done, it was all over.

You were hanging in Eddie's room when you found them, the polarized photos of a naked girl, and it wasn't your body- you found everything.

All the letters, clothes, everything.

You even found a necklace he was planning on giving to her, and it looked exactly like the one he gave you on your 1 year anniversary.

"You told me you fucking loved me Eddie! You traitor!-" you screamed, the anger and pain in your heart filling your body.

You just looked into Eddie's eyes as his hand shakily and slowly ran over his face.

"baby let me explain please-" he said, but you cut him off.

"Don't!- don't you even dare try to explain shit Munson!" You snapped, which shocked Eddie. He had never seen you this mad, and he understood.

He fucked up, he let his little cocky ego get to him, and now he was paying the price.

"How can you explain this Munson?!-" you screamed, picking up the letters and flipping through them as he just sat on the couch, trying to just sink into it and disappear.

"Huh?!- HOW!-" you screamed, throwing them at him as he quickly flinched and caught as much as he could while they flew around him.

"Sweetheart-" Eddie muttered, trying to stand up but quickly getting cut off again by you as you picked up all the photos.

"I found these! You fucked her! In the bed I sleep with you in!- how could you?!-" you yelled, sobs and shaky breaths falling from your mouth as you looked down at the photos, continuing to cry as you threw them to the ground.

You just sobbed there, your arms curling around yourself- you just wanted to scream and throw things around, but you were just too upset and hurt to move.

You just sobbed and held yourself, shaking your head as Eddie looked down at the letters you threw at him, flipping through them slowly while sighing.

"Was I not good enough for you?.." you whispered, looking at him and sniffling as he looked back up at you.

His eyes were still glossy and soft, the look of just pure guilt in his eyes as he slowly stood up.

"Baby- don't say that.. I love you-" he whispered, offering his arms out towards you but you just shook your head and backed up, continuing to hold yourself as you cried.

"Bullshit. You betrayed me. I thought I could trust you- I loved you..." you whispered, causing Eddie to freeze as he looked at you.

His stomach twisted into knots as he just wanted to throw up, regretting everything he did to hurt you, regretting all the times he had shrugged you off, all the times he ignored you, everything.

"And the funny thing-" you sadly laughed to yourself, shaking your head and sniffing as you dropped your hands to your side, looking into Eddie's eyes.

"I knew the whole time.. But I just kept quiet, wanting to prepare myself for something like this- I didn't want to lose you." You whispered, pointing your finger in Eddie's face as tears finally fell from his eyes.

"Baby.." he whispered, moving his hands onto your waist as you quickly shook your head and pulled away.

"I'm done Eddie. I'm done with your bullshit, your excuses. I'm done with you." You muttered, quickly ripping the necklace he gave you off from around your neck, placing it in his hand.

He looked down at his hand but then quickly back up as you stormed into his room to grab your shit, him quickly following after.

"Sweetheart, baby! Wait please!- I can make this up please! I'm sorry- I love you please!" He sobbed, but you just shook your head and grabbed your bag, packing all your shit in it.

"You should have thought that when you were hanging out with that chick. Everything we've been through over the years, just gone like that-" you muttered, shaking your head and quickly turning to walk out.

Only you were to get blocked by Eddie as got in his knees and cried- he just sobbed while looking up at you.

Your heart broke seeing him like this, but he broke yours, so what's so bad about it?...

You stood there for a moment, looking down at him and slowly running your hand down the side of his face, to which he quickly grabbed your hand and kissed all over it.

"Please.. forgive me." he whispered, holding your hand- you just slowly shook your head and pulled away your hand.

"You betrayed me. Traitor." You muttered, quickly walking by him as he sobbed, quickly getting up and trying to follow after you- but it was too late.

You had already walked out, leaving Eddie alone.

And leaving you hurt and heartbroken. Betrayed.
