eddie would accidentally eat an entire bottle of melatonin gummies because he thought they tasted good.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
he has no idea what melatonin is but saw the bottle sitting on your bedside table. naturally he skipped reading the label because he thought it was a snack, still not realizing as he spent 30 seconds trying to open the child-proof cap.
to be fair, he only planned on trying one or two, but he was bored waiting for you to finish your shower. the taste still lingered in his mouth and he shrugged, because he could always buy you more.
he laid on your bed with his legs crossed at his ankles, propped up slightly by the pillow but was clearly sliding down to get more comfortable when you walked in the door. you straddled his lap, only wearing one of his tshirts and a pair of panties. you leaned down to kiss him, feeling rather frisky. but your kiss ended faster than you would’ve liked as he yawns and you giggle.
“getting sleepy, baby?” you teased, knowing that he always falls asleep after you.
“yeah, i don’t even know why though.” he speaks through a second yawn and you crawl off his lap to lay next to him. only to find wedged in between your two bodies, the empty jar of melatonin. you can’t help but laugh when you notice it’s once full state had been completely emptied.
“uh, Eds did you eat my gummies..?”
“oh haha, yeah sorry baby. they were so yummy! i promise i’ll buy you more.” he smiles sleepily at you, and you try your best not to make fun of him.
“Eddie! these are melatonin!”
“mela-what-a?”
“melatonin. it helps me sleep, but you’re only supppsed to eat two!!” you giggle, your boyfriend now more drowsy as you tuck him into bed.
“you’re gonna sleep good tonight.” you tell him with a kiss on the forehead, his snores following shortly after.
