How’d I Get So Lucky?

Warnings: Mentions of food, shit writing
A/N: I am incredibly nervous to post this as i haven’t written fanfiction in a very long time. I think it might have been 2018 the last time i did, however, i wanted to try again. I’m not promising that this will become a regular thing and that i’ll be posting a lot of content but do let me know if you enjoyed it and if you have any ideas for other posts! Enough rambling, Enjoy!
The wind shakes the leaves canopying above my head. An autumnal breeze beginning to make its mark as the change of seasons in Hawkins becomes more apparent by the day. It ruffles the fabric of the blanket strewn across the old wooden table that currently holds a small spread of lunch foods I'd laid out.
After a few weeks of being unable to spend quality time with Eddie due to busy schedules, i suggested we spend a lunch break as just a couple, eating together and catching each other up on our day to day lives. Eddie jumped at the idea, stating, ‘Of course babe! i’ll be there without a doubt!’
I sat lightly tapping at the table waiting for him to appear, feeling butterflies in my stomach at the prospect of finally having uninterrupted time with my lovable metal head. A crunching of leaves behind me causes me to jump up and be greeted with said man.
‘Hello sweetheart’ he smiles. I rush over, throwing my arms around his shoulders and pulling him into an embrace. Instantly, i felt a rush of warmth through me at the proximity. ‘I’m gonna guess you missed me?’
I lean back to meet his eyes, seeing that they are already trained on mine, ‘Nah, Ed, i cuddle anyone who comes to this neck of the woods, call it a reward for the journey.’ He chuckles lightly at my response, pressing a kiss to my hairline.
‘Ah, well, seeing as the journey i took was so treacherous and i lost many a men along the way, could i perhaps ask for more than a cuddle from the fair maiden of the woods?’ He proclaims, running his hands down my sides to lay rest on my waist.
I pretend to ponder an answer, ‘What do you have in mind good sir?’ He tugs my waist, bring me so i’m pressed against his front, a hand slipping up to the side of my neck and his thumb rubbing softly over my skin. ‘How about this?’ He whispers before dropping his head to place his lips on mine in a kiss dripping with love.
We stay like this for a few moments, pulling back to rest our foreheads against each other. ‘The best reward i could ask for.’ Eddie smirks.
‘It’s not the only reward i have.’ I smile, standing back and taking his hand to lead him to the table. I reach my arm over to point at the picnic set out.
Eddie rounds the side of the table, his eyes tracing the food laid out before bringing them back to mine. ‘Gorgeous, this is so sweet! Thank you.’ He leans back over placing another kiss to my lips before taking a seat.
I sit opposite, admiring the brightness of his expression as he plates himself up, ‘It’s nothing really, i just figured that since you’ve been so busy with Hellfire and trying to pass your finals, which by the way i’m so proud of you for doing, i thought i’d treat you to a picnic away from all the stresses.’
His eyes soften at my admission, reaching his hand out, he grasps mine in his, interlocking our fingers. ‘I don’t know if i tell you this often, and if i don’t then i plan to change that, but i really love you. I haven’t had the easiest of lives and i’m not exactly the best person but having you in my life makes the hardships all worth it. Honestly, how’d i get so lucky?’
I don’t know Eddie, but i ask myself the same question each day.
A/N: Not gonna lie, but i had no idea how to end it so i just went with that!
