Before The End: Eddie Munson x Reader

Book 1. *First couple chapters of Book 2 out now.*

Welcome to Hawkins. Your life changes when Robin, your only friend, helps get you out of a bad situation. She and Steve quickly become your best friends after you move in with your cousin, Dustin. The long haired, ever himself, fellow student and good friend of Dustin, catches your eye. Navigating life isn't as easy as you'd hope but your friends and the so called 'freak' you've fallen for help.

Trigger warnings for abuse/child abuse. Drug & alcohol use. Strong language. Sex/sexual acts. Self-harm/talk of suicide. Assault.
There are not warnings at the beginnings of chapters. Some themes are rather dark and may be triggering - hence the warnings here.

POV story, Y/N format. Slow burn, kinda. Heavy relationship focus leading up to the events in season 4.
Not everything will fit with the show but it's a fiction anyway so *shrug*
All Stranger Things characters obviously belong to the incredible Duffer Brothers.

First story/book, whatever you want to call it, I've ever written. Typing this all up on my phone so please forgive me if the format is weird, I don't know how it varies across devices.
This has turned out much more dramatic than I set out for. It's been fun to write though and a little therapeutic as quite a bit of the events stem from my own life. Hope you enjoy and if not, you don't have to read it.
