She wakes in Eddie's arms, sunlight filters through the window and she groans because she does not want to get out of his tight embrace.
Eddie sleeps peacefully, his arm wrapped around her and she settles back down for a moment just keen to savor this time together.
It's been nearly six weeks since she and Eddie grew close, they already knew of each other because of Dustin, Mike and Lucas being in Hellfire but didn't exactly hang out.
That all changed the minute Dustin brought him to hers, his shirt was torn, knuckles blooded and a shiner on his left eye.
Chrissy Cunningham his girlfriend of a brief few weeks had went back to her ex Jason resulting in a fight between him and Eddie.
She knew Chrissy from being on the cheer time and y/n really did think she was a sweetheart except right now she was pissed because Dustin was upset about Eddie being heartbroken.
So, she patched Eddie up and they talked a lot, it turns out that they both loved Metallica and were obsessed with their new song Master of Puppets.
Dustin was delighted the pair got on so well and she was pretty sure the little shit engineered some of their chance meetings after that night.
She was pretty sure he was trying to play Matchmaker which was very sweet and she couldn't deny that Eddie was handsome with his beautiful brown eyes and dimpled smile.
The tats were pretty hot too.
Slowly, they grew close and friendship grew into something... More. Being there for him, the long talks. Holding him while he poured his heart out to her formed a bond.
They hadn't had sex or anything, not that she didn't want to because she was very attracted to him it's just their bond was an emotional one as well as teetering on the edge of being physical.
She spent nights, sleeping over with him. Laying entwined and loving the closeness they both had.
His eyes flutter open and her stomach flutters at his lazy, sleepy smile.
"Hey beautiful". She hides her face in his arms and he chuckles warmly.
"Should really get up huh?". She pouts and he softens stroking her bottom lip with his thumb, electricity crackles between them.
"Gonna make me give you anything you want with that little pout sweetheart".
She grins at him and takes his hand.
"Do you think people realise how close we are?". They don't exactly hide it.
Eddie shrugs and strokes her hand with his thumb.
"Dunno, to be honest I like this. Just us, it kinda feels like you're mine". Oh, shit could she fall any more for this man?
"I am yours Eddie". She tells him truthfully and he moves closer to her... She never finds out what's going to happen because Eddie's uncle Wayne knocks on the door telling Eddie to get ready for school.
Maybe she can find out what would have happen later? Her body tingles at that thought.
🖤
At lunch, Eddie takes her to their spot in the woods so they can chill together and talk, sit together with entwined hands and identical shy grins...
"Eddie?" they both turn to see Chrissy approaching them and y/n's heart sinks because she has a bad feeling.
Eddie looks confused and gets up asking her what she's wants.
Chrissy walks up to Eddie and touches his cheek.
"I want you back Eddie, I should have never went back to Jason". He gapes and y/n feels like her heart has been crushed because she kkows what's going to happen.
Eddie steps away from her angered and his brown eyes flash furious.
"Why now? After all this time?". She swallows and takes his hand.
"Jason is... He's just an ass and I miss you, do you miss me?". He doesn't answer and y/n decides to slip away and give them some privacy and finally let the tears she's holding back come out since Chrissy showed up.
"I really should go and leave you two to talk".
Eddie's head snaps up and he pulls her back.
"No, wait please". She fakes a smile and squeezes his hand hoping he doesn't notice the heartache in her eyes.
"I'll see you later okay?". She leaves before he can say anymore and sobs as soon as she's far enough away for Eddie not to hear.
🖤
Eddie manages to find her as she's heading home, his eyes are red and he looks lost.
"Hi". He pulls her into a hug and she holds him tightly wishing they could stay like this forever.
"Where's Chrissy?". She asks him waiting to hear his answer and expecting what is coming...
"I sent her away, fuck my head is all messed up sweetheart". Heart aching for him she pushes down the hurt she's feeling determined to be there for him.
"I understand Eddie if you want to go back to her". His expression turns agonised and he sniffs.
"What about us huh? This isn't just friendship y/n and you know it. Waking up to you in my arms every day. That feeling that you're mine. How can we lose that? ".
She cries with him and strokes his cheek knowing she has to be strong.
"I know what she meant to you Eddie". He chokes out a sob and it makes her cry again.
"I don't know what to do". He whispers to her tears in his eyes as his forehead rests against hers.
"It's okay, she tells him sadly. I always knew that she could want you back, it was always in my head. I get it Eddie and I just want you to be happy, however that is. I'll still be your friend. Do what makes you happy".
She gently kisses his cheek.
"I'm gonna head home, got uh to cram for finals, I'll see you tomorrow okay". He looks like he wants to say more but she kisses his cheek and walks away dreading and knowing what's to come.
🖤
Truthfully for Eddie it didn't take long for him to decide, he knew in his heart who he loved truly.
He knew who he couldn't live without.
He heads to Chrissy's and knocks on the door, she answers and gives him a shy little smile.
"Hey". She invites him inside and he motions her to sit with him on the sofa.
"I thought a lot about what you said Chrissy and honestly if you came back right after the break up I might have said yes... but then I fell in love with this beautiful, kind, angel and she has my heart fully, I'm sorry Chrissy but no, only one woman has my heart".
Eddie expects her to get angry but she doesn't, she looks like that's what she expected all Along.
"Y/n? It's okay Eddie. I understand". She really does. Deep down she always knew it was a long shot.
Chrissy squeezes his hand understandingly.
"I'm sorry Eddie. If I knew you and y/n were together I would never have done this, honestly I think because Jason and I aren't working I panicked and ran back to you and that's not fair".
"You deserve to be loved fully not by half. I don't even think I truly wanted to get back together it's just you were a safety net you know".
He listens nodding and she turns to him smiling.
"You go to her okay, you go to y/n and you tell her how you feel and I am still going to break up with Jason, be single for a while".
He briefs a sigh of relief, it's went better than he ever expected but now all he wants to do is find y/n.
She's his heart and his home.
🖤
In her bedroom she tries to take her mind of the thought of Eddie and Chrissy together but it needles at her.
She's kinda waiting for him to come and tell her the inevitable, that it's Chrissy who he wants and not her.
He arrives at seven pm, he's holding a bunch of red roses and her heart is racing with the anxiety.
"Baby...
She cuts him off and swallows back her tears.
"It's okay, I know what you're going to say. You have to be with the person you love Eddie, it's okay".
There's a beat before he answers her, he kneels down and looks deeply into her eyes.
"I am".
Two words. Two words make happiness explode inside of her and she throws herself on Eddie, he laughs and she feels elated
"What about Chrissy?".
"We talked, she was understanding and told me to come and find you, you're my future sweetheart, there was never a choice. You are my heart".
He kisses her then and utters the words she longs to hear.
"I'm in love with you". She kisses him crying happy tears.
"I love you, I love you".
His gaze turns hot and she feels drawn to him, knowing what's going to happen.
"I love you and right now all I want to do is make love to you".
Oh, yes. She pulls him to her and giggles as he kisses her face, her neck and worships her whole body long into the night.
🖤

I am again having feelings about Not Me and White specifically.
This man left his life behind for his twin who he hadn't seen in over ten years. He got involved in a gang doing criminal activism. He was really bad at pretending to be this brother he didn't even know anymore. But he did all that, and he didn't expect anything in return.
He knew the moment Black was awake he would lose it all, and would have to find life for himself, a place he belonged to, because he would not go back to his life the way it was after everything he went through.
But even then!!! Slowly, while still pretending to be Black, he slowly let the others meet White without even knowing or noticing it. All the times he did or said something Black would never do or say, even if in the beginning he backtracked and tried to spin it in a way semi-believable.
And slowly he barely did that anymore. Specially around Sean, or maybe just because their relationship even at the start was so different from Black and Sean's relationship. But White thought over the consequences and how to make things really stick.
He cared about all the gang, and the gang came to care about him too, even if they didn't even know they were doing that.
White was able to carve a place for himself with all those guys who don't trust easily.
The scenes when he's celebrating with them, or he's arguing with them. He's not afraid anymore to be found out, he belonged there just as much as Black did, he still doesnt come clean to them, but in a way, they are truly seeing the real White.
The one White himself is getting to kkow, and accept and like so much more than the one he was before.

HANNIEDEAR OKAY SO- I've always meant to send this in but for some reason always forget to do so (ˉ▽ˉ;)...
But anyway likE- before I came back to Tumblr to write, I was always reading on the web. I bookmark things that I like so I can get back to them (I have like, 140 bookmarks ( ̄ ‘i  ̄;)
SO- I was rereading through them all and I found this work (a platonic fic with Diluc/Kaeya/MC) and guess what, it's yours. I SHRIEKED SO LOUDLY AEEAEAEAEAEA

a familiar bud
in the wake of spring burgeons

11, 17, 21, 23, 27, 30, 43, 45, 50, 58,65, 98 for the ask thing, i kkow it's a lot so of course you don't have to answer them all!
These are like a drug to me so I'm absolutely going to answer them all!
11.) Lately I've been having rice, beans and eggs with salsa and sour cream. I found a really good recipe for shell beans so now I always have some on hand.
17.) These baddies:
If you spend time outside in rain/mud/cold there is no comparison
21.) Horses was probably the main one, but I also loved NAMES. I had notebooks where I would write out lists and lists of names. I still have some of them.
23.) I can't really read without kind of playing with the pages? I'm not sure how to describe it. Like creasing the page without folding it, just bending it?
I also loathe sharing food which I guess most people find strange 🤷♀️
27.) I love skiing, sledding, ice skating...but I think my true favorite is just hanging out by a winter fire or a quiet walk when it's snowing or just after.
30.) I'm anti religion etc etc but I do love a cathedral or (nice) church. The Basilica de Notre-Dame in Montreal is top of my list of places I've physically been. But there are also those spots you come to in the woods sometimes, usually by a big old tree, that just feel special and like you shouldn't disturb it.
43.) Hoodie is probably top of the list day to day but I just love layers and being cozy. I have like 10+ cardigans lol. But no leather jacket anymore which I am sad about.
45.) Fantasy all the way! I do enjoy some sci-fi though.
50.) Aside from inside jokes or those intangible moments you couldn't really explain why they're so funny, there's this one YT video of a kid getting absolutely DESTROYED by an obstacle course while his dad loses it in the background. Or the There All is Aching episode of Review.
58.) I make the best eggs you've ever had, I can play the flute, I'm really good at getting animals to like and obey me, and I'm rock solid in a crisis. (I'm embarrassed how long it took me to come up with 4.)
65.) I have a few, most prominent is the one going through my lower lip. I was in a riding accident and needed 15 stitches from just inside my mouth to just under my bottom lip. It sucked but the scar doesn't bother me.
98.) As a history nerd this is really hard! Probably overall the Middle Ages. But I will also always have a deep love for the Regency/Victorian/Edwardian eras for how much more we get from women of that time. I hate how much we have lost of women's history overall.
When I was in college for history I was always drawn towards micro history, the glimpses of day to day life were also of more interest to me than military or political doings.
