eddie

"she's fallin' in love now, losin' control now."

i was at the quarry with the losers on a cool summer night. the stars twinkled in the sky and were reflected by the water, which was equally stunning. i sighed and rested my cheek on my chin, watching eddie splash around in the water below. i was sat on a rock right above the water. god, he was so fucking cute.

"fightin' the truth, trying to hide, but i think it's alright, girl."

"no, y/n, no," i muttered to myself, hitting my forehead with my palm a few times. "you don't like him. all love does is fuck you over, and you have pure fucking proof." i felt tears well up in my eyes as i looked at eddie again. the small boy was giggling, and even from where i was, i could see his eyes gleaming.

"she's fallin' but she doesn't think you'll catch her."

i began to shake as i thought of my last relationship. he had been my first love, and my first for a lot of things. we had a good first two months, but after that, it gradually got worse. he had ruined my entire sight on love, which was why i couldn't fall for eddie. i gulped as i realized that i already had fallen, head over heels.

"cause her last relationship was a disaster."

it had really started out nice. he treated me like a princess. it was my dream come true, and i thought we'd be together forever, but he changed. he began to constantly fight with me, and blame everything on me. everything. i would cry myself to sleep almost every night, wondering if he truly loved me. i knew it was a toxic relationship, but i loved him to death. i would do anything for him, even suffer through his abuse. he always promised he wouldn't leave me, but a week before our one year anniversary, he broke it off by saying he was in love with another girl.

"but the new guy really loves her."

*EDDIE'S POV*

i glanced at y/n sitting on the top of the cliff by herself. she looked upset, as if she was about to cry. she had been strangely quiet all night, which bugged me. she was usually so happy and outgoing, so i knew something was up. i winced at the thought of her crying. all i wanted to do was hug her and kiss her and tell her everything was going to be ok. i knew she liked me, but there was something holding her back. she was always anxious on the talk of dating and relationships. once, bev had asked her if she believed in love, and she had to run home, breathing hard and shaking. "hey, wheezy!" richie yelled, laughing. "stop eyeballing y/n, she's all mine." angrily, i rolled my eyes and began to walk up the cliff to where she was sitting.

"she loves him but she doesn't trust herself anymore."

*YOUR POV*

i began to uncontrollably sob and held my face in my hands. i was shaking harder than i ever had before. leave it up to me to have a mental breakdown the night i hang out with my friends. i was crying so hard i didn't notice eddie come to sit beside me and rest a hand on my back, rubbing it softly and whispering reassuring words into my ear. i uncovered my face and threw my arms around the boy, covering his bare chest in tears. i tried to explain everything, but kept hiccuping. "e-e-eddie, he fucked me over so b-badly. h-he deserves to rot in hell. what kind of person can do that to another being? is i-it me? i-i-i guess i'm just u-unlovable," i ranted, tightly hugging him. he gasped and pulled away from the hug, looking into my bloodshot eyes and tear-stained face. "you aren't unlovable, y/n. i adore you. every single day, i watch you in awe. you're literally so fucking perfect in every way. i don't know what you're talking about, but i've noticed how you freak out whenever somebody mentions love to you. it hurts me, and i want to hurt whoever made you like this," he half-yelled, wrapping his arms around me again.

i bit my lip as eddie talked, as this was exactly what my last boyfriend said. he noticed, and quieted his voice. he slowly lifted my chin to meet his face before connecting our lips. "i promise i won't ever treat you like he did. fuck him for being such a jackass, and fuck you for being so beautiful but yet so sad, y/n," he mumbled into the kiss, and i giggled softly.
