eddie breathed deep, attempting to mask his frustration. you were cross-faded, you didnt know what you were saying.
"nothings happening chrissy, its alright."
he grabbed the sides of your arms, and hushed.
"we will talk about this later. im driving you home, okay?"
you whined as he grabbed your hand and dragged you out of the trailer. he put you in the shotgun seat and started up his van. you pouted,
"dunno why youre takin me home. I'm completely fine, i just said what ev'ryones thinkin'."
he didnt reply, but you could see him biting the inside of his lip. when he got to your driveway, he made a note to watch you until you got to your door, then drove away.
"fuck him anyway," you mumbled, stumbling up to your bedroom. you kicked off your shoes, and huffed as you sat down at your vanity. You looked at yourself in the mirror.. suddenly ashamed. Your eyes were bloodshot, and your skin was paler than normal. You looked horrible, all of your drunken arrogance suddenly washing away.
your eyes roamed to the corner of your mirror, landing on a picture of you and eddie as babies, another picture of him and you at a playground right under it.
you chuckled, remembering each moment captured, then you saw a picture of you and eddie at junior prom. You told him you didnt have anyone to go with, and he opted to go with you. You knew he didnt view it as romantic, but it was incredibly sweet, like he always was. You also got him to wear a suit, which was a feat on its own. on the day of, him and your mom waited outside your room for you to reveal your dress. when eddie had layed his eyes on you, you swore you could see his breathing stop for a moment.
you just ruined your friendship, hadnt you?
you had drunkenly told him you loved him, and basically to go fuck off and get with your other best-friend, without you in the picture. He was probably back at his trailer again with chrissy, and had most likely already forgotten about you. he was becoming more and more distant with you ever since getting closer with chrissy, and this was probably his last straw.
you thought about every important memory with him, wondering how many more you could have made if you hadnt blown up at him. tears well up in your eyes, and you couldnt hold it together anymore. maybe it was because you were an emotional drunk, but you felt like everything was your crashing down on you. you had been so mad at both of them when in reality, it was your fault since the beginning. Maybe eddie knew you liked him, and he became increasingly uncomfortable with you. It was your fault you couldnt get over your stupid crush.
the next morning, you woke up to your mother calling you and a blaringly shrill alarm. you half heartedly swat at it, aiming at it until you eventually turned it off.
you groaned, head pulsing and aching. a few minutes passed, and when you hadnt responded to your mother she walked up to your room to go check on you.
"are you alright sweetie?" she said, a concerned look on her face.
"ugh… m'sorry mom i just.. My head is absolutely killing me." you say, rubbing your temples and wincing.
she sits on your bed and puts her hand on your knee, "m'sorry y/n. d'ya think you might just need a break? Youve been going through so much with Ed's and your friend chris. i can see why it might be too much for you."
you stutter, "y-yeah…. its just because im stressed. because of the situation. tension headache, y'kno?" you laugh nervously, "do you think i could stay home from school today?"
you pause, and put up some sickly puppy-dog eyes, pushing out a quivering lip.
"well… just for today," she smiles at you, patting your knee and standing up, "but dont think you can get into a habit of it young lady."
you smile, attemping to look as sick as possible to really sell your need to be bedridden. your eyes were half lidded, and you croaked out a measly, 'Thanks mom,' as she slowly shut the door behind you.
after taking a wicked hour power nap, your mom gently shooke you awake, bringing you some lunch.
"hey hon, brought you a sandwhich. y'feel up to sitting at the table with me?"
you nod, eyes following the food she brought you as she led you to the kitchen table. after you sat down, you practically inhaled it. Your mom chuckled, bringing her sandwich to the table as-well.
"so, i noticed eddie hadnt come to pick you up today, are you two alright? Y'know, i get you said he was being distant but i know he still cared. if you two faught i really hope you can make it up with eachother. Especially if its over some stupid girl."
you bit the inside of your cheek and held back. you could feel tears attempting to swell in your eyes and you didnt want to make it a big deal to your mom, especially since youd have to tell her what happened last night.
"hey, chris isnt stupid ma," you chuckle, muffling your wavering voice by taking a bite of your sandwich.
what if he didnt care about you anymore? He didnt pick you up today, and he always has, ever since he got his van-
just as you were about to spiral deeper into your thoughts, the phone rang.
"ill get it mom," you said, walking towards your wall phone and pressing it to your ear.
it was dustin. you grinned.
"we've all been so worried about you, Lucas was going to bike to your house to check up on you, Mike told him that was a stupid idea because he was still at school, and Eddie hasnt said anything, like. all day."
you stop, furrowing your brows.
"i dont think so. he just looks.. super deep in thought, but he said he was gonna skip the rest of his classes so he's probably already home right now. and its just weird for him to not talk, hes like the most talkative person i know. y'know?"
"yeah dustin.. i know. hey, tell ya what. I will try to be at school tomorrow alright? gotta make sure you guys dont get in to trouble. And tell Lucas that im not dead." you chuckle, relieved that eddie didnt seem mad at you.
dustin promised hed absolutely tell lucas that you died, and hung up. You sat back down at the table, giggling to yourself.
"whats got you all smiley suddenly?" you mom asked, smiling back at you.
"ah, just somethin dusty said ma'. Hey, do you think i might be able to take a walk?"
"oh course hun, to go where?," she inquired, getting up to go wash her plate.
"oh nothing. just.. takin' a walk.." you say, putting on a cardigan and slipping on your shoes. You made your way out of your house and down your porch steps, and began to walk towards eddies trailer.
As you made your way towards the trailer part, your smile faded and your stumach turned. Did he even want to talk to you? Would he even be home? Dustin mentioned he was skipping classes, but he honestly could have just been making some more deals.
You made it to his trailer, bringing your closed fist to the door. You inhaled, and knocked.
