Eddie Munson ~One Shots~

PT. TWENTY-THREE

                  ~ The Secret Child~

  Eddie and I have been the best of friends since middle school. But what he doesn't know is that when we started the 9th grade, I ended up having feelings for him. But he wasn't feeling the same way about me. Because he was dating someone named Darcy. And seeing him with her broke my heart. Seeing my best friend in love with a girl that's not me. I would sometimes walk past the bathroom and hear Darcy moaning and screaming Eddie's name. I wish it was me that was in the bathroom, getting fucked like that. But it's not me.

   One day, I walked past Eddie who was with Darcy. I saw the way he looked into her eyes. It made me sick, but I just ignored the fact of pretending it's me that he is kissing. So I walked past him and said "Get a fucking room!" I was pissed off. I kept on walking, and I felt a hand grab a hold of my arm. I spun around, and it was Eddie. "What the fuck was that Y/n? You never act like that around me, and now that I have a girl in my life, you have changed. What has gotten into you?" I stared at Eddie, with tears falling down my face. I took off the bracelet he had given me as a gift 3 years ago and placed it in his hand.

  I opened my backpack and took out the drawing that he drew of my character for DnD. There was no use for it. I handed that back to him as well. He looks at me and says, "Y/n, please don't do this. I...I don't want to lose you!" I placed my hand upon his cheek and said," Save it, Eddie! You had already lost me when you started dating Darcy. Hope you are happy with the girl you chose to be with. Goodbye, Eds. See you around!" I zipped up my backpack and walked out the double doors. I just ended the friendship of 6 years with Eddie. Yes, it was the hardest thing for me to do, but it had to be done. I got to my car and tossed my backpack into the back seat. I looked out the window and saw Eddie standing by the doorway. With tears in my eyes, I started my car and drove home.

  *Time Skip*

  It has been a full 2 years since I ended my friendship with Eddie. We both graduated in 1986. It is now 1988, I was at home, minding my own business. When all of a sudden, I heard a knock on my door. I went and opened it, and to my surprise, it was Eddie. I did let him in, but I was a bit curious about why he was here. I sat down on my couch, and so did Eddie. I stayed quiet for the time being. "You are probably wondering why I am here. So I am gonna explain everything to you. Y/n I need to tell you something. You know what, maybe I should show you." He takes his wallet out of his back pocket and takes a photo out of it. He hands it to me.

  I stared at the photo, and it was of a little girl. I was a bit confused. "What is this Eddie? Is this some kind of joke? Whose kid is this? If you say this kid is yours, I will not be supportive of it." I handed him back the photo. And he placed it back in his wallet. He looked at me and said, "I thought you would be more supportive because Darcy passed away in a car accident 3 months ago. Alice has nowhere else to go. She is with her grandparents. Y/n, I want to get custody of her. So I need your support." I looked at Eddie and said,"You had lost all of my support when you dated Darcy. Amd now that you have become a father to that child, you expect me to support you now. I don't think that's gonna happen. You wanna also know another reason, Eddie, of why I will not support you on this, is because I wanted you first. I was there for you through thick and thin when we were younger. I even fell in love with you. I thought that you were gonna ask me to the homecoming dance, but no, you asked Darcy. I thought you were gonna take me to prom, but you took Darcy. What about me, Eddie? You have forgotten that I existed. That bitch stole you away from me. She stole our friendship away, Eddie. And we can't get that back. So if you need support on trying to get your secret daughter to be in your custody, good luck with that. Because I no longer want to be involved in your life anymore. So I think it's best that you leave. Have a nice life with your new child. Hopefully you will let her know that you had made a bad decision. And that you choosing her mother over me, was the worst mistake of your life."
