I woke up at about eight this morning. I was laying on Eddie's chest, he was fast asleep. I leaned over to grab my phone and played it on while Eddie slept. I opened my TikTok and played on my phone until Eddie woke up. It took over an hour for him to finally open his eyes. He sat up, making me sit up as well, and he kissed my head. "Goodmorning baby." I smiled. "Morning Ed." I replied. He stretched and got out of the bed. I did the same, but my lower back hurt so much. "Ah, fuck..." I mumbled, my right hand reaching over to rub my lower back. Eddie turned and looked at me quickly. "You okay?" I nodded and continued to rub my lower back, causing him to chuckle a little. "Did I go too hard?" He asked, jokingly with a smirk. I rolled my eyes at him, sticking my middle finger at him and put on some boxers. He returned my gesture with his middle finger and a cocky grin. I glared but laughed and walked out the room before him. I went to the kitchen and took out two mugs. One a baby blue and the other a mint color. I decided that the green one was going to be Eddie's. "Coffee?" I asked Eddie when he walked in the room. He was also just in boxers, and he walked up to me. "Yes, please." He looked at me then looked down. "Are those mine?" He asked, pulling part of the boxers by my ass and letting go, making a snap sound. I slightly blushed and nodded. Eddie began laughing. "They were just there, and I was too lazy to get my own." I tried explaining, starting to laugh myself. He shook his head and sighed. "They look good on you anyways." The water finished boiling and I made the coffee for Eddie and me. We both sat in the lounge together, watching some TV. I made the choice, by myself, to watch South Park. I turned to Eddie and spoke. "So, when are we going to your old house to fetch your family's things?" Eddie smiled at me and shrugged, setting his arm over my shoulder. "Whenever you wanna go babe. You don't have to come if you don't want too though. He might not be himself and I don't want you to get uncomfortable." I smiled up at him and nodded. "I'll come with; you need all the help you can get." Eddie smiled back. We continued watching some TV.

After getting dressed, we both got into Eddie's car. He drove us to his father's house and parked across the house in the road. We both walked up to the front of the house and Eddie knocked on the door. His father answered the door and looked relieved. "Oh Eddie, has your mother and you finally come to your senses? I told you it was all just a phase-" His gaze turns to me than his face drops. "Hi dad, we're here to get mom's, Issie's and my things." His dad drops his head and moves out the way. We both walk in and go to the rooms and begin to collect everything. They didn't have much to collect and we finished in three hours. Eddie and I packed the boxes into the car then went to the backyard to get his dog. I walk slowly, worried that the dog would bite or not like me, but Eddie grabbed my hand and rushed me into the backyard. A huge German Shepperd comes running from a doghouse and jumps onto Eddie, licking his face. (I flinched a little when it came running, but I will never admit that to anyone.) This causes me to giggle and watch Eddie laugh and pet his best friend. The dog looked over at me and Eddie quickly attached the leash. The dog cautiously walked up to me, sniffing. I stuck my hand out and allowed the dog to sniff me. It then wagged its tail and I pet its head. "I think he likes you." I smile and look at Eddie. We both walk out the backyard and towards the car. Eddie's dad quickly runs up to us, mainly Eddie. "Wait, how is your mother and sister?" He asked. "They're fine, we are all living with Gaege." He gestured to me. His dad looked has if he was grossed out and turned to me while Eddie packed the last box into the car. "It's all your fault my family had left me." He said, gabbing his pointer finger in my chest. I gave him a look and Eddie quickly came back to my side. "Hey, dad, cut it out." Eddie said, trying to push him away. I felt my face furrow and I replied without thinking. "Maybe if you were a more accepting person, you'd still have a family." I didn't mean to say anything. Eddie looked over at me with a 'why'd you say that?' look and his father looked pissed. I felt some quilt, regret even, creeping up to me. I bit the inside of my mouth and looked down. He pushed Eddie out the way and grabbed my collar aggressively. Now, if he throws the first punch Eddie can't get mad at me. "Listen, I don't think you realize who I am but-" "Officer Garcia." I said, staring into his eyes. "Or...at least that's what I wrote on the note." I whispered near him in a soft but threatening tone, narrowing my eyes and slightly tilting my head. His face went pale, and he let me go, slightly pushing me away. He had a horrified look on his face. "I-It's you." He spoke in a hushed tone. Like he was admitting murder, while his family was watching. I looked at him confused has Eddie got back up and walked over to protect me. "Dad, what the fuck was that about?" His dad quickly looks at him, grabbing his forearm and trying to get him away from me. "Listen Eddie, you must leave him. He's a murderer and he will kill you all! Please Ed, he's a bad man." His dad pointed at me, his hand slightly shaking. Eddie gave him a freaked outlook. "I've seen what he's capable of, you need to get away from him." Eddie looked over towards me and I shrugged, faking an offended and horrified look. "He's the guy who runs that gang I was telling you about-" Eddie leaned forward and gave him a hug, then Eddie and I got into the car. "It was good to see you dad. I hope you take a small break from drinking, and hope you come to your senses. Love you." His father was too shocked to try stop us, and we drove away.
