Decision, decision

Eddie Munson x Plus size reader

If you want to read my other work you can find it HERE

Ok I lied there will be a part 3. Cuz I don't have time to finish this today. And I really wanted to get some opinions on how I should end this. Seems kinda obvious how it should end but I'm seriously on the fence. So feel free to suggest something.

Part 1, Part 3

Part 2

Warning: angst, cursing

Not proof read and no word count

Just an fyi I used a bit of the scene in Grey's Anatomy where Meredith asked Derek to choose her and a scene in one tree hill.

😮‍💨❄️✉️✉️

So Friday night was the plan. Samantha was still sick so Eddie thought you two could be alone and finally catch up on what you did for the summer. So after his campaign he went to the video store to pick out something. He placed a copy of Teenwolf on the counter grabbing a bag of popcorn and a pack of red vines.

" Hot date?" Steve asked while ringing him up.

" nah just hanging out with a friend." Eddie reached his hand to rub the back of his neck. That's right she's just a friend.

" so how's y/n" Robin said coming from the back room

" she's umm good I think." Eddie replied.

" what do you mean you think? Weren't you guys like a thing?" Steve said eyeing Eddie

" Uh what do you mean?" Eddie was confused.

" what aren't you guys like together?" Robin asked. " I thought you guys have been together."

Eddie let out a nervous chuckle. " Uhh no. Nope she's just my friend."

" I'm confused" Robin said looking at Steve.

" ooooohhhh I was wondering why she was hanging out with that hoodlum." Steve said putting Eddie's things in a bag. " Well I guess she has a type after all." Steve smirked.

" oh come on Robin. You can't be that clueless."

Eddie stood there awkwardly watching the two friends converse.

" you see the way y/n looks at Eddie. Or at least use to look at Eddie. Vance is like a weird shorter, thicker blonde headed version of him."

Robin gave Eddie a once over. " huh yeah I can kinda see it."

Eddie was so confused. What the hell are they talking about?

" Munson man you fucked up." Steve scoffed

It was then he realized what the two idiots were getting at. You liked him. And since he was with someone else you went for the best thing you could find. A more aggressive but mini him. Shit what has he done?

" you ok there Munson?" Robins question brought Eddie back to the present.

"uh yeah I uh got to go." Eddie said as he grabbed the bag and left.

Robin and Steve stood there watching him leave then looked at each other and grinned. They knew exactly what they just did. For some reason they liked to meddle in others affairs. And since seeing Eddie with Samantha they knew they had to intervene.

...

Eddie couldn't get his thoughts together while driving home. You liked him? For how long? Why didn't you say anything? Why didn't he say anything? Why didn't he noticed it? He thought you just acted like that because he was your best friend. But now all the sleep overs and getting dressed in front of him, and leaning up against him when you guys would just sit in his room talking meant more to you than he thought. Fuck and you were coming over. He had no idea how to approach this newly found information.

He was sitting in his living room constantly getting up to pace then returning to sit back down, only to repeat the pattern all over again. Shit what was he gonna do? Fuck what about Samantha?

"Hey bud-" you started to say before Eddie pulled you in for a hug.

Eddie heard soft tapping at his front door. He froze. He had no idea what he was gonna do or what he was gonna say.

He went for the door and took a deep breath. He swung it open and you were there all smiles.

Eddie held you so tight. He waited so long for this moment, he just had to hold you. And when you hugged him back he held on tighter. He sniffed your hair in the process. God you smelled so good. He missed you so damn much. So did you by the way you held onto him. After a lengthy amount of time, that if anyone would have seen they would have thought you were more than just friends too, you guys finally pulled apart. But you weren't done with him. You pulled him back in for one more squeeze. This made Eddie's heart fill with joy. You loved him didn't you? You needed his arms to wrap around you. He needed it too.

Finally letting go you pushed by him to get into his trailer. Eddie felt cold when you left him. He wanted to pull you back but the thought of Samantha came. He had to break up with her. He needed to do it now. But he didn't want to leave you. You just got there. Besides how would he know if you truly wanted to be with him. So he waited. He was still determined to break up with Samantha regardless. He closed the door and turned to watch you take off your sweater and shoes. You were wearing your pajamas. Where you planning on staying the night like you use to? How did Vance feel about you doing that?

" So what's on the agenda bud?"

Bud?

Eddie cleared his throat. "Uhh teen wolf"

You smiled at Eddie choice. " Sounds good"

Eddie nervously laughed and grabbed the bag holding the things he picked up. Tossing you the red vines.

" Aww you remembered?"

Of course he remembered. He remembered everything about you.

He went to heat up the bag of popcorn as he watched you get up and slide in the vhs. How was he gonna do this? He pulled out the bag burning himself in the process. But you didn't notice. He poured it into a bowl and stood in the hallway looked towards his bedroom. Thinking about the letters he started to write for you but never sent. He wrote one every day that you were gone. Explain how much you meant to him. Writing how he and Samantha started to see each other. But how he wished it was you. But he stuffed them into a shoe box and wrote something else to send.

"Hey you're missing important plot points" you said while looking at the movie, bring a red vine to your lips.

Eddie looked at the screen and smiled. It was just the opening credits. He made his way to the couch sitting at the opposite end from you. That's when you did what you always did when it was just you two hanging out. You leaned your back against him propping your feet up on the couch. Pulling his arm around your shoulder.

" Missed you Eddie"

" Missed you too." He said just above a whisper.

For the whole movie he watched you while you watched it. Trying to find the right thing to say. And when the movie ended you yawned.

"Sleepy?" He asked

" mmm just a bit. Is it cool if I stayed the night?"

" uh yeah yeah sure"

You looked up at him. " Samantha won't be mad?"

" Why would she?"

" I don't know. Sharing your bed with another girl might not make her too happy."

" No I don't think she will. What about uh Vance?"

You shrugged. " He knows your my best friend. Even if he does mind then I'm gonna have to break up with him."

You would do that? For him? Ok this was happening.

Eddie watched you get up and turn off the TV and headed to his room. He cleaned up and followed you. You were already snuggled up in his blanket facing the wall. Eddie hesitate before changing into his pajamas. Which consisted of just a pair of sweat pants. He climbed in and got under the blankets back against the mattress looking up at the ceiling. He laid there for what felt like forever when you reached behind looking for his arm. Finally finding it you pulled him to spoon you.

His heart was racing and his breathing hitched. The sent of your shampoo filled his nostrils, making butterflies flutter in his stomach. Did you know that the actions you were doing had such an effect on him?

" Hey uhh y/n are you asleep?"

" not yet"

" umm I need to tell you something"

You turn to face him. Eyes droopy from tiredness. " What's up?" You whispered

" I uh was talking to Steve and Robin today...about you and uh Vance."

" uh huh"

" They said something about how he kinda looks like me"

You adjusted yourself a bit before answering. " huh yeah he kinda does"

You closed your eyes as Eddie continued

" they said that that's the reason why you are with him.... Because he looks like me."

" Umm ok?"

" Is that true? Are you seeing him because he reminds you of me?"

You laid on your back and rubbed your eyes to try and wake up a bit more. This was a conversation you hadn't planned on having.

" I uhh I don't know. Maybe"

" Maybe?"

You sighed. " Yeah maybe. Since you're with Samantha, I kinda just thought maybe it was time to move on. You know....get over you."

Over me? You were over me? Please please don't say that. He thought.

Silence fell. Only the dripping of the bathroom sink was all you could hear.

" ummm I-i don't want that."

" Don't want what Eddie?"

He hesitated. " I don't want you to be over me."

Now you were wide awake. You turned your head and were met with his big eyes.

" umm what?"

" I uhh I don't want you to stop liking me."

You were confused. Wasn't he still with Samantha?

" Why?" You asked

Eddie took in a sharp breath. " Because I'm in love with you."

You shot up and shook your head. You got up and went to the living room. With Eddie following.

"y/n?"

You let out a sarcastic laugh. " You have got to be joking?"

" I wasn't."

You put on your shoes and pulled on your jacket.

" Why? Why now?"

" Because y/n I just found out that you feel the same way."

"Felt." You corrected him.

" Felt?" Eddie was hurt.

" Yes Eddie. Felt!"

" Are you saying you don't have feelings for me anymore?"

" Eddie you have a girlfriend and I have Vance. We can't just hurt them like that."

You paused for a moment. Because yes you were still very much in love with him. But you guys were with other people now. What were you guys supposed to do? Break up with them and live happily ever after.

You guessed the moment took a bit longer than you intended because Eddie was now right in front of you.

"y/n I'm sure they would understand why."

" No Eddie. Have you met Vance? He's...he's violent. He will hurt you."

" Just because I don't get into fights doesn't mean I don't know how to. And if I get my ass handed to me then....then it will be worth it. If we can be together."

Eddie reached up to touch your face but you stepped back.

" Don't. Don't make me choose....don't make me choose between you and him....we had our chance and we missed it."

" No don't say that" Eddie took a step closer. "I can't promise you that." Eddie tucked a strand of hair behind your ear.

" Here it is y/n. I love you. I love you so much. It feels like a piece of me is missing when you're not around. The type of love I have for you is the forever kind of thing. It's the kind of love that you throw your fist in the air when you finally get the girl. It's like wanting to hold a radio over my head towards your window. Like riding off into the sunset. Living happily ever after kind of love....I love you... Damnit y/n I love you so much. So please say you love me too. Because I know you do... Please baby. Please choose me. Pick me."

You didn't even know you were crying until Eddie was wiping away your tears.

" I can't." You shook your head. " I just can't."

You moved away from him and went to the door.

" y/n please just wait. Just wait. I have something for you."

You stood there shaking your head. When Eddie came back. He handed you a shoe box.

" in here is everything I ever wanted to say to you....please read them. And then make your decision."

You didn't looked at him. You just took the box and left.

Vance Hopper from The black phone. Like Eddie but make it blonde😂❤️

He's cute but he's like... 15-16 or something? Doesn't the grabber take kids? Why can't we have more adult metalheads in the media? GIVE ME MORE ADULT METALHEADS, BRO! >_>

Cool aesthetic, though.

Unpopular opinion:

Vance is better than billy hargrove, idk who started the whole comparing the two of them thing but y'all leave that blonde mullet milf hunter out of vance's proximity and also he doesn't look like eddie and billy's love child, y'all see a blonde boy with long curly hair and immediately go "oh he looks like eddie and billy's love child 🤪" no he doesn't plus vance has way better hair than billy and eddie combined don't lump my boy with them

(Before the billy/eddie simps come after me this is purely a joke i dont actually care who's better 💀)

[wroteclassicaly]

Yes and no. Ethan Hawke is the killer The Grabber in The Black Phone movie. But the character, Vance Hopper, he is actually only one of the many victims that was killed by The Grabber. And.. there's quite a few characters in that movie that also remind me of Stranger Things cast, well, the characters. Vance Hopper is the young teenage boy who just reminds me of Billy Hargrove and Eddie Munson combined. Like he is tall for his age, light skin, long curly blond hair - similar to Billy's blond hair but styled like Eddie's rather than Billy's mullet, and really vibrant blue eyes like Billy (blue like Dacre's blue eyes). He's a metalhead. He's always playing videos games like Max was known for. And he had this really aggressive, violent, personality like Billy. Was abused by people. And because of his behavior problems, amongst many other reasons, he was held back in school a couple times too. He is like this fourteen year old combination of Billy and Eddie. So that's really eerie to me. Doesn't help that his last name is Hopper too.

There's another character who is a conspiracy theoriest like Murray.

Every time I'm watching plots that contain the 70s, 80s or 90s years.. There's always someone who reminds me of someone else, and many remind of Stranger Things characters. So that's just disturbing to me.

But.. yeah... When you do get a chance to, definitely watch The Black Phone. That was one of the better horror movies I've seen in recently, at least in my opinion. The movie is more supernatural thriller genre. But I would recommend the movie. Especially if you don't like graphic horror movies, even if you don't like any extra graphic special effects.

- 💋

I definitely will! It all sounds promising ^_^

How are you today?

[oatflatwhite]

no one word for it

read on ao3

inspired by the press release about the new 911 character, the theories about lucy as a mirror to buck ala lena and eddie circa s3, and em @queerpanikkar's post

“So,” Lucy says, cricking her neck one way, then the other. “He always like this?”

She jerks her head toward Buckley, who’s unclipping his harness with a rigid line of tension strung across his shoulders visible even from a distance, even by a stranger.

The firefighter she’s standing next to snorts.

“Yes and no,” he replies, slipping off his helmet and running a hand through the sweaty curls beneath. “He’s, uh, very dedicated to the job.”

“Yeah, well, I’ll take my dedication without a side of biting other people’s heads off.”

And—listen. Lucy knows Firefighter Buckley isn’t entirely to blame. She’s too used to the dynamics of the 147, the way they simply roll their eyes in exasperation now when she runs her mouth, the way Vance tucks a smile into the collar of their turnout jacket whenever Lucy says something particularly blunt. She shouldn’t have expected the 118 to be the same, but still—something had clearly crawled up Buckley’s ass long before Lucy got under his skin.

“He—could’ve been nicer,” the other firefighter admits. “But you get used to Buck. And he’s—going through something, right now.” He cracks a smile, toothy and bright, that startles Lucy for how young it makes him look. He can’t be older than twenty-five; barely out from being a probie, Lucy guesses. He’s good, for a kid. “Hey, at least he didn’t chase you around with a chainsaw.”

“…sorry, what?”

The probie sticks out his hand. Lucy takes it without hesitation.

“I’m Ravi,” he says. Behind him, the captain of the 118—Nash, Lucy remembers—calls his crew back to the engine. “That’s my cue. Raincheck on the chainsaw story?”

“Lucy,” she grins back. “I’ll hold you to that.”

Ravi laughs and jogs away. She watches him join up with Buckley, say a few quiet words to him Lucy can’t make out. Buckley—Buck—glances over in her direction. She raises a single, cool eyebrow.

“Making friends, Donato?”

Lucy turns, already smiling, feeling the last hour wash off her skin like she’s just been dunked in the most luxurious bubble bath ever. Vance is standing a couple feet away, helmet tucked beneath their arm and fingers on their free hand drumming against their thigh like always.

“Why do you sound so surprised?” she fires back, unclipping her own helmet and tucking the sweaty blonde strands behind her ears.

“I wouldn’t say you’re exactly known for your charms.”

“They worked on you.”

“Yeah, well.” When Vance smiles, their bottom lip gets snagged beneath the point of an uneven canine. It’s Lucy’s favourite smile in the world. “I’m easy, what can I say.”

“Oh, I’m aware.”

And the thing is—they’re on a call, or at least—finishing up on a call. There’s another eight hours left of their shift and Lucy’s probably already going to be written up by Captain Carrera for the stunt she pulled with Buckley, but—

It’s Vance, and they’re smiling like that, and Lucy went a lot of years pretending like it didn’t make her feel—well. Like it didn’t make her feel, and she’s done with that.

Carrera is busy anyway, talking to Captain Nash, and the 118 are loading back into their engine and Marks and Gonzalez are on their phones as usual and it’s the easiest thing in the world, as easy as breathing, to cross those two feet and still Vance’s hand on their thigh and kiss them hard enough to feel the press of that crooked tooth against her lips.

It lasts barely a second because Carrera has eyes in the back of his head and Lucy may be reckless but she isn’t stupid. She keeps holding onto Vance’s hand, though, the callouses on their fingers as familiar as Lucy’s own.

“You’re a menace,” Vance laughs, and a coil of their dark hair has cowlicked to their forehead from the helmet. They’re sweaty and dirty and gross, and still they steal Lucy’s breath away as surely as any five-alarm. “What were you talking about, anyway? With that guy from the 118,” they clarify.

“He promised me a story,” Lucy laughs, catching Carrera’s eye behind Vance as he nods towards the engine. The 118’s truck rumbles to life as Nash climbs into the captain’s seat. “Something about a chainsaw…”

Six months ago it felt like AEW had a lot of big names from WWE coming in, and I was curious how that would shake out. Interestingly, quite a few of those big names have moved into the tag division, so there's way more room now than I expected for the talent that came up through the minor leagues.

Even so, it's unmistakable that CM Punk and Chris Jericho are the stars of the show right now. Adam Page may be the top champion, but to truly be taken seriously as the top dog he's going to have to put the title up against one of them, and my guess is it'll be Punk. As for Jericho, he's already put over Kingston, but I think his first one-on-one loss with this new heel run will be where he really gives someone the rub. Could be Eddie again, or perhaps Guevara.

AEW helpfully got nearly every tag team booked in a couple of battle royales recently, which showed off the division in full force. But all of those teams have been overshadowed by three supergroups: Moxley-Danielson, Allin-Sting, and the reunited Hardys. Any of these teams would have to be considered heavy favorites against Jungle Boy and Luchasaurus, but none of them have gotten in line for a title shot yet. I'm real curious how AEW will keep them all from crowding out the rest of the field.

The heel side is a little light right now, and it may get lighter if the FTR storyline actually leads to a face turn. We should probably see a face team turn heel before too long. Mox and Bryan already seem kind of heelish, but nobody's going to boo them right now and AEW seems to accept that, so we'll see if that leads anywhere. It feels like something's up with the Dark Order, or at least with Alex Reynolds, but I can't imagine all three of its teams (Reynolds-Silver, Uno-Grayson, Angels-Vance) going heel.

* Not listed on AEW's official roster

There's still a lot of work to be done here, to get more women on TV regularly. It's a positive sign that we've been seeing two non-title storylines (Deeb vs. Hikaru Shida, Hirsch vs. Statlander & Velvet) in addition to Baker vs. Rosa and Cargill's winning streak. That's a good demonstration that creating more spots for the women isn't just a matter of rolling out new championships. At the same time, though, it's kind of absurd that Nyla Rose and Ruby Soho haven't been on TV in a month. It's also perplexing to me that a lot of top female talent that WWE cut last year hasn't shown up in AEW yet.

No TV matches in 30 days: Aaron Solo, Abadon, Anna Jay, AQA, Brandon Cutler, Colt Cabana, Diamante*, Emi Sakura, Frankie Kazarian, Jack Evans, Jay Lethal, Jora Johl*, Josh Woods* (ROH pure champion), Kiera Hogan*, KiLynn King*, Lance Archer, Luther, Marina Shafir*, Matt Sydal, Michael Nakazawa, Nyla Rose, Ruby Soho, Serpentico, Shawn Dean, Skye Blue, Sonny Kiss

* Not listed on AEW's official roster, but won at least one AEW match

Fans have been increasingly frustrated that a lot of wrestlers have been "demoted" to Dark and Elevation, the Youtube shows. Thing is, as long as AEW produces these shows, there will always be lower-tier talent that primarily appears on them. The only question is which wrestlers should be considered "lower-tier."

Archer, Lethal, Nyla, and Ruby are obviously just simmering and racking up wins to build to a TV push later. Cutler, Cabana, Diamante, Sakura, Kazarian, Evans, Luther, Sydal, Nakazawa, Serpentico, and Dean seem to be positioned as journeymen who are there to do reps with the developing talent. The rest are presumably considered "in development," for better or worse.

No AEW matches in 30 days: Anthony Greene*, Anthony Ogogo, Dustin Rhodes, Billy Gunn, Hikaru Shida, Joey Janela, Julia Hart*, Leva Bates, Megan Bayne*, Penelope Ford, Shawn Spears, Zack Clayton*

* Not listed on AEW's official roster, but won at least one AEW match

Here's the group that isn't even wrestling on Youtube. Spears and Shida have been appearing on TV recently, so that's fine. Rhodes and Gunn are basically player-coaches so I don't expect them to be around much. I expect Ogogo has travel issues getting into and out of the UK. Janela is planning to leave when his contract expires. Bates has reportedly taken on more of a backstage role, although she did return to the ring not that long ago. Greene, Bayne, and Clayton each have wins in AEW, which generally signals plans for a continuing relationship, but that's not a guarantee.

So of this group, the only ones I'm really scratching my head about are Penelope Ford and Julia Hart. But for all I know they could both be injured or taking time off.

No AEW matches in 2022: Angelico, Arjun Singh*, Brian Cage, Danhausen, Marko Stunt, Paige Vanzant, Ryo Mizunami*, Yuka Sakazaki

* Not listed on AEW's official roster, but won at least one AEW match

Angelico has appeared on Dark recently. Cage has (unexpectedly) had his contract extended, so I figure he'll be returning soon. Danhausen appears to be walking around okay after breaking his leg in October, but that doesn't necessarily mean he's cleared to wrestle. Vanzant just signed so I expect her in-ring debut within a few weeks. Marko is reportedly already out of the company, but AEW still lists him on their website roster. I keep thinking Mizunami and Sakazaki are gone for good, but they still manage to get back to the US once in a while.

Part-time/semi-retired: Christopher Daniels, Mark Henry, Paul Wight, Rebel, William Regal

Regal is listed on the official roster with a win-loss record, just like Sting, Henry, and Wight. That suggests that they expect Regal to have a match someday, although Henry's been here for nearly a year and still hasn't. I really can't imagine Regal working a match in 2022, but then again I didn't think I'd be seeing Sting doing big table spots either.

Inactive

Jake Atlas (left knee - ACL tear)

Kenny Omega (various injuries)

Kip Sabian (shoulder - undisclosed injury)

Miro (right thigh - hamstring injury)

Orange Cassidy (left arm - unspecified injury)

Rey Fenix (left elbow - dislocation)

Riho (right arm - unspecified injury)

I haven't seen any updates on any of these injuries, except that Omega reports that his recovery is taking longer than he planned. Sabian has been appearing for weeks in the audience with a box on his head, so I assume that means he's about to return, but he sure is taking his time with that. I predict Miro to return without warning, when we all least expect it. I also predict Orange will be on TV with that sling for months, and then one day they'll do a gag where he admits he forgot to take the sling off, and he's been medically cleared for weeks.

EV the Electric Charger Caboose

Full Name: Edward Vance

Nicknames: (Sister) Eddie, EV (CB) EV, Edward, Eddie (Electra) Vance (Components) EV, Small Caboose, Fun Size(only Joule is allowed to call him that), Little Lex

Age: 16 nearly 17

Sexuality: Demisexual

Pronouns: He/Him

Height: 5'8

EV is a green electric charging caboose with white and gold highlights. He has strawberry blond hair that he sometimes dyes brown or black. He also has green eyes.

EV's main job is to supply power to the all electric trains. He also radios for help if the steam trains need more water or if the diesels need more oil, basically to make sure all the trains are fueled up.

EV, like his father, is sneaky. He does his job with a cheerful smile on his face that everyone finds creepy. He is somewhat like his uncle, Canoose, in that he makes sure everyone pays him for every recharge. If someone owns him money he adds a high interest rate. He isn't completely bad, he loves his family dearly and like to be with his little sister a lot.

If he has to recharge a lot of trains in a short period of time, EV gets kinda short tempered, but its not his fault he just needs to rest for a while. Sometimes he gets very very over worked and he passes out, unable to work anymore. If this happens EV needs to stay rested for about 3-4 days.

Ok i know it's not exactly like you wanted but I liked it. I hope you do too. Please don't be mad at me. 🥺

Warnings: umm none I think. If I missed something my bad. Not proof read and no word count

😓💚

You stood behind your friend Eddie dodge as many big red balls as you could. Kinda sad that you were hiding behind the tall lanky guy when you were clearly still able to be hit. You hated PE. Wearing the stupid shorts that always and I mean always ride up between your embarrassing thick thighs. Wearing a stupidly tight shirt because they didn't have a bigger size. The squeak of tennis shoes and the laughter of your fellow classmates echoed through out the gymnasium.

" You can't hide behind me forever." Eddie chuckled as he dodge. You trying your best to move with him. You noticed he kept eyeing the new girl who was sitting on the bleachers.

" alright princess I'm out. I need to go talk to her " Eddie said before letting himself get hit.

" Oh you fucker." You yelled.

It was just you and Vance Hopper left on your team. He made his way closer to you shoulders touching.

" Hey y/n. Ready?"

"Well no, but let's do this."

Vance was surprisingly fast. He was such a bad ass. Catching balls and hitting them away with one he constantly had in his hand. All you had to do was dodge. But you were a seriously big target. How you managed to be one of the last two left was beyond you. 

You kept getting farther and farther from Vance and that wasn't what you meant to do. So you moved back. Once there you saw Jason throw a ball so hard at your face. You move as it just grazed your ear. But you lost your footing. Vance had grabbed your hand but the sheer velocity of your weight pulled him down with you. Both landing on the gym floor.

" Oh god are you ok?"

You laughed with a snort. Covering your mouth in the process.

" That's cute." Vance grinned.

His words made you laugh even more. But it came to a stop when you saw a red blur hit him in the head. Not hard enough to knock him off of you. But hard enough to tilt his head making his hair trapped your face like those things in a car wash.

You giggled as they tickled your face and neck. When he fixed himself he was angry but hearing your laugh made him laugh too.

"Common I'm out." Vance said getting up and helping you too. When you guys were walking to the bleachers someone throw a ball at your back making you stumble forward.

Vance caught you before you fell again cursing out the person who threw the ball. You didn't look at who did. You were too focus on Hoppers beautiful eyes.

"Hey you good?" He looked into your eyes.

" Umm yeah. I'm ok. Thanks."

" Hey you want to go out sometime?"

His question made you blush. No one has ever asked you out before.

" I uhh. Sure." You smiled nervously.

After making plans for dinner you sat next to him talking. You looked over at Eddie who was talking to the pretty thin blonde that had just moved to Hawkins. You smirked giving him a thumbs up. He returned with a thin lip smile.

...

Eddie had noticed the new metal head during a class that he had been late to. She was so damn pretty. Totally the type he should be with. She was definitely the complete opposite of you. Who someone like him should be with.

During PE he was happy to see that he had another class with pretty blonde. And he was seriously thinking about abandoned his best friend to go talked to her. So when he saw that there were only 3 of you left he bowed out. Leaving you to Vance Hopper. He didn't know then that was a mistake. So he went to talk to her. He kept looking over to you and Vance. Doing his best to pay attention to the pretty girl next to him. It wasn't until he saw you and Vance fall did he get worried. He was jealous that Vance made you laugh like that. And when you got up and sat with him all he could think about how he was losing you. He shook it off and asked the girl on a date. She agreed. He gave her a grin and looked back at you. You gave him such a sweet smile and a thumbs up. All he could do was give you a halfhearted grin. Why was he feeling this way about you now. You were nothing like him. A nerdy chubby girl with horrible taste in music. The perfect girl was right next to him and all he could think about was your laugh. He thought he was the only one who could make you laugh like that.

Finishing the school day he thought about his upcoming date with Stephanie. He really wanted to see if she was all he dreamed about. But then you were waiting for him by his van so he could take you home like he always did.

When he hit the neighborhood of white picket fences and well kept lawns, he felt completely out of place. Sure he has been there before. Loads of times when he would hang out with you. But it always felt like he didn't belong.

He always found an excuse to try and leave but you always convinced him to stay. It always amazed him how your parents treated him. They knew what was said about him but they didn't care. You guys had been friends for so long now that they knew who he was. And that was pretty cool of them to let him be your friend.

As he pulled up into your driveway he turned off the van.

"So uhhh guess what?"

He looked at you. You were so happy. It made him grin. But that grin faded when you told him you were going to dinner with Vance.

" Oh...well that's cool. I have a date too."

" Really?! That's awesome Fuzzy butt"

Eddie smiled at the nickname you gave him when you were kids accounting to his mane. You guys went to your room to do homework until it was time for you to get ready. He didn't want to go. But given your excitement he forced himself to.

" Hey want to watch a movie tonight? After our dates of course." You asked before he left.

His heart skipped. Of course he wanted to watch a movie with you. He always wanted to be around you. You were so amazing. He tried to not to show how excited he was that you wanted to see him after your date. Maybe it would give him the chance to see if you really liked Vance. And if you didn't then there was hope for him.

"Yes princess. I'll pick out something. Come around 9?"

"See you then Fuzz"

...

After an amazing date that ended with a kiss and a boyfriend . Hopper dropped you off. And you didn't go inside to change you were so giddy. You drove to Eddie's and basically ran from your car to his porch. You let yourself in announcing yourself like you always did. The smell of popcorn filled the tiny trailer. You saw your bestie in the kitchenette.

"mmm smells good." You said making your way to the counter.

It was a complete contrast to the normal scent of cigarettes and man musk. But you never minded it. That's when Eddies eyes fell on you.

" Hey uhh you look... Great."

Eddie's complement made you blush. Looked down at your sun dress you were glad you picked it. You stepped back.

" it has pockets." You said giggling showing Eddie

He laughed. Man you are too cute. He thought.

" So......"

Eddie couldn't stop staring at you. You looked so beautiful. Yes he's seen you in dresses before but you always had your hair pinned up and you never really wore jewelry or makeup for that matter. But tonight your hair was down and curled. You were wearing a pair of small pearl earrings and a matching necklace. Your makeup made you look so delicate. The pastel color on your eyes matched your dress. And your thick lashes were only made thicker and longer with the small amount of mascara you added but absolutely did not need.

"Earth to Fuzz you okay there" you said waving your hand in front on his face.

He snapped out of it. " Hey sorry I was just umm thinking."

" About?" You asked reaching over the counter to grab a few pieces of popcorn.

" I uhhh. Stephanie cancelled on me." He lied

" Oh Fuzz I'm sorry. She was really pretty. I thought you guys totally hit it off."

They did actually. But a little too well. Eddie had picked her up and within minutes she was on him. They were in the back of the van having a hard core make out session when she tried to have sex with him. In any normal circumstances Eddie would have embraced the opportunity. But for some reason. That reason being you. He was having malfunctions. Not from the lack of trying though. Stephanie was hot and she tried nearly everything. But nothing was happening. So he took her right home. He apologized and left. With no plans of calling on her ever again.

You had gotten up and walked around the small kitchen and went to hug him. He held on to you firmly breathing in your shampoo.

You pulled away and picked at some more popcorn feeding it to him.

"See nothing but a little bit of junk food makes all the hurt feelings go away. I should know."

You went to the couch bring the bowl of popcorn with you.

"So what are we watching?"

" Uhhh Sleep away Camp. But uhh we have to watch it in my room. My uncle went out for a drink but he should be back in a bit."

"Oh okay." You said happily while getting up and headed to his room, with Eddie following suit.

You got comfy in your normal spot on his bed and got under his blanket leaning your back on his head board.

" So uhh you gonna tell me how your date went?" Eddie said nervously while putting in the movie.

" A lady does not kiss and tell "

Your words made Eddie heart sink. You kissed? He was your first kiss. Fuck man.

" Oh really?" He tried to play off his hurt.

" Yes it was nice. Well for the first time. It's still weird that how I'm 18 and a senior that has never even been on a date. Let alone be kissed. Both happening on the same day. Crazy."

" Hey what about when I took you to the roller rink that one time."

" That wasn't a date Fuzz. But it was nice of you taking me there on my birthday. It was fun."

Eddie had seriously consider it to be a date now thinking about it. It was just you two. The way you held onto him when you tried to skate. Damn near falling every time you tried to move your legs. Eddie remembered how all your curves felt when he held onto you. Was that when his feelings changed?

" so it was just nice?"

" Yeah I wasn't expecting it to be spectacular or anything. I didn't know what I was doing so yeah it was nice."

Eddie played the movie and went to his spot by your side.

" So are you gonna see him again?" He asked but not really wanted to know the answer.

" Well I hope so. It would be kinda weird not seeing your boyfriend after the first date."

" Boyfriend?!" Eddie said. He ment to think it. But his mouth was much faster than his brain.

" Jesus H Christ Fuzz. Yeah my boyfriend. What's with you? Normally I can never get you to shut up. Now it's like you took a shitty vow of silence."

Eddie got up from the bed and started to pace.

" Hey Eddie what's up?"

Eddie stopped to look at you. This is it. He has to say something before the relationship you and Vance had started went too far.

He went to close his door to give you guys more privacy even though there wasn't anyone besides you two there.

It was quiet for a while before you shifted still staring at him. You knew it takes him time to gather the right words to say when something was bothering him. So you waited patiently not forcing the matter. But when he took too long you smiled and starting eating popcorn again. Your eyes following him pace back and forth until he stopped and pulled out his metal lunch box.

He pulled out a poorly folded piece of paper and handed it to you.

You raised an eyebrow at him.

" Ok you know it's hard for me to express myself out loud when it comes to what's going on inside."

You scoffed.

" ok I know. I'm dramatic sometimes."

" Sometimes?!"

" Alright most of the time."

You gave him a thin lip grin

" Damn it princess. Fine all the time. But I need you to read that. It's seriously how I feel. And I just hope you don't hate me after."

Your smiled disappeared to concentrate on Eddie's letter. Eddie turned the movie off and sat on his dresser. You noticed him drumming his thumbs. It was a nervous habit he has since you guys were little. You licked your fingers clean and started to read.

Hey princess. I want to write this today while I still had the guts to write how I feel. So today when I saw you talking to Vance I got jealous. And I felt worried. I was worried about losing you to him. Don't get me wrong. I know you're not mine or anything. I know how you don't like to be compared to property. But you're my friend and I didn't want to lose you to another guy. Especially since I want to be more than just friends. I don't know exactly when things change, maybe the feelings have always been there. I don't know. But I do know now that I care so much about you. You are the most beautiful girl in the world. I'm sorry this is the way I'm telling you this. But it's really hard for me to admit this out loud. I always figured that you wouldn't want to be with someone like me. Coming from different worlds and all. But when you told me about Vance. I saw that him and I aren't so different and you went out with him. So I asked myself why not me? Please don't think I'm only doing this because of him. Because even though hearing about your date with him pushed me to shoot my shot. I am very much in love with you. Princess please don't hate me. If you are willing to give me a chance then I promise to be so good to you. I may not have much but I want to take care of you. And take you out on dates. Buy you all the nice things you deserve. It might take a while but I will do whatever to get you whatever your want. I love you y/n

You had no idea that he liked you. He never really did anything to give you the impression that he did. Sure you guys were really close. But you guys were friends. Did it matter that you were a girl and he was a boy? No you guys been buddies forever. You tried to go back and look for something that you did to make his feelings change but couldn't find anything. You had never saw him like that before. Sure he was gorgeous. But he was right. Complete opposites. And he was worried about money. You never cared about that. You were happy just being his friend. It's amazing how you guys remained friends all this time. But now how could you guys go back to being friends after this.

Eddie cleared his throat bringing you back to earth.

" Umm..." You got up and handed Eddie the bowl of popcorn. Slipping on your flats. "I'm gonna go ok. I need to think about this."

That was not what he wanted to hear. You didn't give him a hug or anything. You just left. He had now regretted giving you that note. He should've just kept his feelings to himself. At least if he did you would still be in his bed watching a movie with him.

...

It was the next day and you sat on your bed making a pros and cons list for the guys.

Eddie- pros: funny, charming, great listener, sweet, caring, sensitive when he wants to be, never made fun of my weight, has great hair, and the best smile and knows you like the back of his hand.

Cons: he's loud, he chews with his mouth open, he barely showers, and he's your best friend.

Vance - pros: he's protective, says very sweet things, cute, strong, great hair. And kinda reminds you of Eddie. He is your boyfriend.

Cons: aggressive, bad temper, always in trouble, he's kinda hard to talk to. Kinda scary. Knows hardly anything about you. But to be fair you just started dating.

At the end of the list you still struggled with the decision. Only because you need to talk to vance about the situation. You wanted to be completely transparent with both of them.

So you called Vance first and explained to him what was going on. But failed to mention your list. He actually was pretty calm given his reputation. Which you hoped it would last.

After you hung up you called Eddie. He sounded sad when he answered but immediately changed his tone when he heard you on the line. You explained the you need the rest of the weekend to think about what you wanted to do. Even though you had already chose who you wanted to try to be with. You need some time alone and get the courage let the other down easy.

Sunday night you called them both breaking the news to one and asking for a ride to school tomorrow with the other. After a successful night sleep you woke with the biggest grin. It's happening today. You got dressed for school and went outside waiting for him. You could hear the music from around the block and you just smiled. He pulled up and got out to open the door for you.

"Good morning"

" morning. I see you forgot to brush your hair this morning."

" I was in a hurry to come get you."

You kissed him on the cheek and climbed in. He closed the door and jogged to his side hopping in.

" Ready princess?"

" Onward Fuzz."

Ain’t Life A B*tch - Chap 2

Well for me... aint editing a bitch so I’m sorry if there are mistakes but I’m finding it hard to concentrate lately. 36th day in Quarantine!! 

Chapter 1 if you need a refresher or whatever :)

. . . . / 2 / . . .

The next week was spent sorting through forms and getting your new probie up to speed. She was a young buck, raised in New York, father was a cop and mum was a naval officer. So serve and protect was in her blood as she'd say. Alex Edison was her name but she preferred to go by Eddie, a nickname she hated in school but grew to love when she got older.

You managed to video call your other Agent who was flying in from Miami on the weekend. He had to sort a few more things before making the move permanently to DC. Agent Hunter, Ben Hunter, was how he introduced himself and you couldn't help but roll your eyes. You'd met him once when his case brought him to your ship a few years ago. You worked well and was happy when Vance mentioned his name as a candidate for your new team.  

"Ok, Alex. You got the form for HR?" You sighed, leaning back in your chair. You desk was perfectly positioned the next row over from Gibbs Team which meant you heard and saw almost everything that happened over there. They'd been chasing a murderer for over a week now. Everyone was running on fumes. Especially Gibbs and you couldn't help but cringe a few times when he yelled at his team.

Eddie was shocked the first time she heard him yell and you reassured her that it was ok. Her face clearly didn't believe you though.

"Just about." She answered tapping away at her computer, her desk was beside yours. So you could see her screen when you leaned back in your seat. She'd added a few picture frames around her desk, one of her dog, another of her and her mum and the third was an old grey and white photo of her grandparents.

You smiled as she hurried up. "All good, once you've finished that. Send it to HR and if you want we can grab a drink?" You suggest, it had been a paper heavy week and you needed to unwind away from a computer screen.

"Aww, I need a drink." A sad voice piped up from over the divider.

You twirled your chair around to see Ellie standing and looking over at you. You'd managed to chat to her a few times, mainly in the break room when she escaped to get a snack which was quite often. "You're more than welcome to join."

She smiled at your offer but her eyes darted down to where Gibbs mustve been sitting and you shrug. It was almost 1800 on Friday. They hadn't had a break in the case all day, you knew because you caught their huffs and complaints about it all day. "Gibbs?" Ellie said with so much hope, you could tell by the bags under her young eyes that they'd been working longer hours than usual.

"Yeah, there's nothing we can do tonight."

"You can join to if you want Gibbs." You shout and laugh at Ellie's and Eddie's reaction to his invitation. You knew all too well what his reply was going to be, what it always would be in the middle of a case with no leads.

Gibbs stood up, leaning over the divider and smiling down at you. As he said the words, you mimed his answer. "Bourbon, boat, basement." Everyone chuckled at your response. "Why'd you ask?" His eyes were curious. Clearly bemused by you miming and knowing his answer as he said it.

"I'm being polite and a nice colleague." You smile, seeing Eddie send off the form so you began to gather up your things.

"Hey Jack!" Ellie beamed, as the other blonde strode into the bullpen and you stilled for a second. Your back was now turned to Gibbs, you could feel his eyes burning into your back, he saw you freeze. You'd successfully avoided Jack all week. Only catching glimpses of her on the promenade and once when she came to help Gibbs team with profiles. Neither of you gave each other a second glance and as much as you were thankful for it, your gut was getting more and more twisted with every glimpse you saw her. Not to mention your subconscious derailing you every night by replaying the break up and the moment outside of MTAC when you came back.

"Ellie, you heading out?" She tried her best to sound up beat but you could hear the hostility in her voice.

You shucked on your coat, slipping on your gloves and packing up your desk. "You ready?" You look over at Alex who is shutting down her computer.

"Yep." She jumps up, stretching and grabbing her coat and bag.

"Hey y/n, can Jack join us for drinks?" The words you hoped you'd never hear but knew it was coming. You knew Jack was close with the other team and why wouldn't she be? She's a friendly, warm - shut up brain. Trying to gather as much composure as possible you turn with the best painted smile you could muster.

"Ellie I'm sure-" You were ready to make up any kind of excuse but as soon as your eyes locked with Jack's you couldn't finish.

Without a missing a beat Jack picked up your excuse. "I'm busy tonight. Just heading out now to go on a date actually." Her eyes look back to Ellie who is now too curious about Jack's date. You on the other hand are trying your best to ignore that stab to the heart that had nothing to do with Jack's words about a date. Or the way her eyes darted to Gibbs and he shared a look when she said date.

"I'm ready." Alex smiles, you can tell she's trying to distract you. Your composure mustn't be as good as you hoped.

You clap your glove covered hands. "Right.. Ellie, we'll meet you there?" You wait a tick to get Ellie's reply, not daring to look at Jack again. Ellie looks from you to Jack curiously. You were trying so hard not to let anyone notice anything between you and Jack, Gibbs didn't count, and it was starting to come through.

"Sure. Devil's?" You nod and follow Eddie to the elevator.

"See you there. First rounds on me!" You shout over your shoulder and hop into the elevator.

"I'm coming!" Nick shouts and you just hake your head with a smile.

The night wasn't as awkward as you thought it might be. No one brought up the moment in the squadroom even though you could see the question on Ellie's lips. You had a few drinks and got to know each other a lot more. Nick even got up and danced when one of his favourite songs came out of the speakers, he tried his best to drag Bishop up but she held on tightly to the post next to your table. It was nice, you felt like you were settling more and more into living and working in DC. Something you thought would take a while.

You and Eddie hung around a while after Nick and Ellie had to call it a night. They unfortunately still had to work in the morning both hoping they'd have a lead or this was going to be an awfully long weekend for them both.

"How are you liking DC?" Alex's eyes wondered to the tv screen above the bar, you could see she was trying to seem disinterested but you'd tried your best all night to avoid your personal life all night. Always flipping it back to the asker, it had worked, Nick always liked talking about himself.

You wanted to be open with Alex, to create a partnership with her more so than being like a boss. You wanted to create that boundary but this job was going to get serious really quickly and you wanted to create a bond that you could lean on each other as well. After all these people were going to be in your life for hopefully many years to come. Drawing in a deep breath you thought about your answer. It was a simple question but it could lead to harder ones.

"Colder than I like but I did always enjoy the snow." A bit vague but you wanted to see where Alex would take it. To see if she was willing to go straight to the question she really wanted to know. "What about you?"

Her eyes snapped back to the table, taking a sip of her drink. "I like the pace of DC. Managed to find a somewhat decent place to live."

"Yeah you mentioned that earlier. Seems like a score for me and being a short drive to work as well." She was really impressive for her age, stepping out and following her ambitions, you admired that.

"You don't have to answer but.." Her eyes shifted nervously, you knew what was coming. "You and Agent Sloane? Did something happen before I came along?" Her eyes flicked to yours, you weren't hiding your feelings on the subject. The alcohol may have had something to do that by now. You'd kept it steady all night and now it was finally taking it's toll.

"Something did.. a long time ago." You shrug as nonchalantly as possible, bringing your glass to your lips and taking a long swig.

"Must've been -"

"We were in a serious relationship and I-" You sigh, dropping you head back. You really didn't want to talk about it, alcohol or no alcohol. Bonding or no bonding, you weren't ready for this admission. Out loud anyway.

"So when does Ben arrive again?" Alex gave you a comforting smile and you relaxed at the subject change.

The night soon came to a close, you made sure Alex had a ride before making your way home. It was nice to have a night together outside of the office. To get to know each other more and with other friends as well. The crisp night air made you shiver and you hugged yourself closer to the wall of the bar while you waited for your Uber.

The weekend you managed to keep yourself busy by shopping and finding things to decorate your apartment with. You managed to find some cute things at the local markets on Saturday morning. Your apartment was slowly filling up with things you liked and you felt content with your efforts. Shopping was never an pleasure for you but you needed to make your apartment feel more like a home. After all you would be staying around for hopefully a long time. On Sunday you managed to find a small dining set that would fit perfectly in your small dining area and a cute, round, wide chair that you thought would be great curling up on after a long days work. Come Sunday afternoon you were all shopped out and curled up on said new purchase with a blanket and cup of hot chocolate, testing the new furniture out.

There was no case come Monday morning however Agent Ben Hunter had arrived and kept you busy catching up and filling out his paperwork for his transfer. "So I filled in the form for payroll and have the other documents are being sent through to HR."

"Excellent." You smiled over at Ben. He was very to the point and full steam ahead. You just hoped that was the same when it came to being in the field and on cases.

You got distracted by the team over the divider. They'd caught a cast late Sunday afternoon and apparently had been going since then. Nick was very loud about the lack of sleep he'd had and Ellie would bite back every so often saying they were all in the same boat.

"Alright team. I have profiles for you." You heard her voice, the pep and energy clearly evident compared to the rest of the team. "Come on. The quicker you look into these guys the quicker you could get some sleep. Or you know, Gibbs. Send them home. They need rest." She was all too blunt and head strong about it and you were waiting for Gibbs' snark remark about it's his team but it never came.

"'robably right Jack but we gotta get this guy. Grab a coffee and we'll follow up on the profiles." He grunted and you heard his chair squeak meaning he'd gotten up and you watched as he and Jack walked around and waited at the elevator.

You sunk further into your chair, hiding slightly more behind your desk as you watched Jack and Gibbs walk into the elevator turn around and Jack was laughing at something with a smiling Gibbs. Your gut twinged and you grunted at it to shut up. The elevators door shut and you went back to the emails you were following up on.

"Everything alright y/n?" Ben spoke up, clearly noticing your reaction to Jack's presence.

"Fine." You tried to smile but doubted it came across as convincing. You shot a look at Alex not to say anything, not that you thought she would. "Going to get a snack from the break room. Want anything?" You looked between your teammates.

"Good, thanks Boss." Alex smiled at you then returned to her computer.

"Can I have a kitkat? I'll pay ya back when I have cash." He dug into his top draw to find some money but only came up with a few coins.

"It's fine." You genuinely smile at his efforts. "Think I can handle it." You wink at him and he chuckles.

"Thanks Boss." You shake your head at the name. It was still very new to you. Being the leader and in charge but Boss did have a nice ring to it, even if you and Ben were around the same age. You walked around the bullpen, coming up to Tim's desk.

"Nutterbutter right?" The sound of his favourite snack snapped McGee's face from his computer screen.

"Right." He beamed and you just kept walking. Same old McGee.  

You're in the middle of bashing the vending machine after the nutterbutter gets stuck, Tony probably did something years ago to the machine to annoy McGee, when your phone rings. "Agent Y/n. Yes, ok, we'll be there." You give the vending machine one last bang and the nutterbutter falls free. You walk, pick up your coffee and snacks and exit the room.

Gibbs is back, you hear him before you turn the corner. The site of the older blonde almost has you miss a step but you don't. You've got a murder to solve. "Timmy!" You shout, drawing everyone's attention and McGee beams as you chuck him his treat in passing. "Good catch. Gibbs been giving you pointers?" You wink at him, trying your best to not seem effected by Jack's presence.

"Nah, having two kids, you learn quickly how to juggle." You both share a laugh and you continue onto your team. "Not to mention years of avoiding Tony's antics."

"We still need to have that dinner Tim. Maybe after our cases are solved." You say over your shoulder, doing your best to avoid eye contact with Jack. She's been looking back and forth between you and Tim the whole time. Mainly looking at Tim. At least that's what you could see without looking at her directly.  

"We got a case boss?" Alex pipes up as you walk around and grab your sig and badge out of your desk, slipping into your NCIS jacket. It fit like a glove, it was several years old but there was no way you were letting Vance give you a new one. This one had seen you through most of your Agent Afloat adventures.

"You betcha. Dead Petty Officer downtown. Grab ya gear." You straighten up and look over at Gibbs who is smirking, you ignore the blonde beside him and give him a wink. "Old habits. Let's go." You were probably too eager about getting a case, it was exciting, your first case with your own team plus you were itching to get out of the office with your beautiful ex standing right there.

Is that what she'd become an ex? Like obviously she was an ex but to be just another number in a very short list of relationships? You never wanted to add her to that list but she'd ended up on it all the same.

Also I’m not gonna add the link to the prompt list because I’m not going to take them anymore. I don’t have enough time so we’re just gonna finish what we have here and if I change my mind later I’ll reopen it!

Derry is a small town, everyone who lives there knows it. News travels fast, everyone knows everyone’s business and there’s nothing anyone can do to avoid it. Mike assumes that’s why everyone knows who he is, where he lives, and his lack of common education that every other boy gets. Everyone knows who he is. It’s scary.

What’s scarier than everyone knowing everything is their complete ignorance towards it all. Mike watches missing signs get replaced by another missing sign every week. Kids being snatched up without a trace only to be forgotten when the next one is gone. He particularly remembers a boy named Georgie, Georgie Denbrough. He was one of the first missing, he had the most people looking for him because of it.

Though, that’s not why Georgie sticks in his mind, well, it’s not the only reason. Months after Georgie was forgotten and replaced by a new kid, Mike saw his brother. His brother, Bill Denbrough, was holding an old missing poster with his brother’s face on it. He had been giving them out when the news was still fresh and terrifying, but now he holds it in his hands and stares at it longingly as he walks. Behind him are three other boys. One of them has neat brown hair and a fanny pack, he’s bickering with a taller boy who has wild black curls and huge glasses. The other boy is staring down at a book in his hands, he kind of looks like a combination of the two boys, he has wild blonde curls but a clean look to him, ironed clothes and a belt to hold his khaki shorts up.

They don’t stay in Mike’s line of sight for long, but he does think the blonde haired one spared a glance in his direction.

Mike lays in bed thinking about Bill and the blonde boy. His light is on and brightening up the whole room, it’s midnight. He’s scared of the dark now, with another kid missing he doesn’t think he can turn the light off even if he tried. While he’s laying there, he thinks about how he wanted to actually talk to those boys. Considering they’re running around with their friend who still thinks his long-lost brother is still alive, they probably wouldn’t judge him. They didn’t seem like the rest of the town, Bill doesn’t let things go easily, and the blonde boy didn’t seem bothered by that fact. He considers talking to them the next time he sees them, but he knows he’s too scared to start conversations.

He drops the thought and goes to sleep.

…

Mike stares at his wall recalling that night. It’s been five years since then, Georgie was found but he still thinks about Bill Denbrough and the blonde boy. Except, the blonde boy isn’t the blonde boy now, he’s Stan Uris and he has Mike’s heart even if he doesn’t know it. A shudder runs through Mike’s body, Stan isn’t the only boy either. Bill had Mike wrapped around his finger, he doesn’t know because he doesn’t abuse that privilege.

A lot had happened in those five years, The losers had changed a lot. Bev moved away, and gradually Bill stopped feeling anything for her. Mike had started attending a regular high school with the rest of the losers, his grandpa sent him to do so because he couldn’t continue to teach him on his own. Eddie had come out as gay to the losers and a few weeks later he started dating Richie.

Currently, Mike has come to the conclusion that he’s fallen in love with two boys. That conclusion has brought him to tears on occasion. He doesn’t usually sleep with his light on anymore, but when he loses himself in his thoughts about the two boys, he finds that the darkness is all too frightening.

How could he be in love with two boys? He couldn’t even imagine the hell he’d go through if anyone out of the losers club found out. For all he knows, they’d have him killed in the middle of town. How could he do this to himself? In such a racist, homophobic town like Derry.

But it’s not the thoughts of what the town would say that keeps his light on through the night, it’s the fact that he doesn’t understand his feelings. How can he be in love with two people? How does that work? He’s never even heard of that before, can you love two people at once? Hypothetically, what if he did start dating one of the boys? The other would still be in the back of his mind, he’d still think of the other and how he wants to be with them too. But that’s unheard of in Derry, it’s a boy and a girl or nothing. Not a boy, a boy, and a boy.

He sleeps with his light on.

…

“Mikey?” Stan whispers. He had his eyes focused on a blue jay that seemed to have been staring back at him. His gaze never leaves that bird, they’ve been maintaining eye contact for four and a half minutes. Mike feels weird knowing the exact time, but he’s been staring at Stan the whole time. Mike almost doesn’t respond because he’s staring.

“Yeah, Stanley?” Mike’s voice comes out smooth, it always does. Even when he’s nervous, his voice doesn’t stutter. He doesn’t stutter like Bill, and his voice isn’t timid like Stan’s will tend to be. He’s not like the two of them, and yet, he wants both of them.

As Stan waits to find the right words to say, Mike takes all of Stan in. Stan has quite the exterior to him. He’s beautiful, neat, all in all, a well-oiled machine when you think about it. But any of his five closest friends can tell you that there’s more to such a prim and proper looking boy. He makes jokes to himself on the side that no one understands, he’s in third place for biggest trash mouth behind Eddie, and Richie. He’s a big bird nerd, loves them so much. Just as he has fun hidden qualities, he has some that haunt him every day. One of them being that he has trust issues. He doesn’t like to share secrets all that much, he keeps them to himself. It’s actually impressing Mike that he’s willing to choke out these words right now.

“I… I don’t like girls…” Stan tears his gaze away from the blue jay to look into Mike’s eyes, the blue jay flies away. The tension was thick around them, anticipation hung in the unshed tears that danced at the rim of Stan’s eyes. It smacks Mike in the face when he realizes that Stan is scared. Stan is so scared, so vulnerable, he’s been taken to the dark side. The dark side, as in actually believing what the homophobic people in Derry say about them. Stan looks lost, stuck. It crushes Mike.

“You mean you’re gay?” Mike asks for clarification. He doesn’t wanna get this wrong, he needs it to be right, for Stan.

Stan nods.

Mike smiles warmly, something that would brighten the whole field if it wasn’t already lit by the sun. He reaches over and grasps Stan’s shaking left hand.

“I am too.” Then Stan is crying. He chokes out a loud, ugly, relieved sob that breaks Mike’s heart. He wraps both his arms around the smaller boy and pulls him into a tender hug, there Stan cries out of what Mike hopes is happiness, and Mike thinks about how he wishes he could tell Stan that he’s gay for him too.

…

That day in the field is never brought up again, Mike is half convinced it was all his imagination. He tries not to think about it, but he can’t help dreaming about it. He’s spent countless nights dreaming about that exact moment. They all start the same, Stan tells Mike that he doesn’t like girls, and from there Mike will either recreate what happened or do something different. Most of the time he holds Stan’s face in his hands and kisses him. But after every dream, he wakes up to his illuminated room and sighs, wishing he really did kiss him.

He goes back to sleep and leaves the light on.

…

Mike has to admit, he’s kind of obsessed with watching Bill paint. When Bill paints, he listens to music. He has a playlist that Mike has grown familiar with over the years, it hasn’t changed since a few months ago when Bill added a new song.

Today, Mike is watching Bill paint a glass of water, and this glass of water has the water shining on it just right to make a rainbow reflect from it. Mike thinks a piece of it is poetic, in a painting sort of way.

Bill’s humming along to the song that’s playing, it’s funny how his voice is all stutters when he’s talking, but it’s graceful and smooth when he’s singing. Mike thinks Bill has a nice voice, it’s not the best out of all the losers, but it’s up there. Bill gets some words mixed up sometimes, but Mike doesn’t mind. In fact, he thinks it’s cute. He’d never tell Bill that he sang the words wrong, he’d keep that to himself.

“Mike… You ever liked someone before?” Bill asks slowly, his eyes never leaving the painting.

Mike feels his face heat up, spreading across his face like wildfire. He hates thinking about liking people, especially when one of the guys he likes is right in front of him.

“I… I suppose I have, maybe once. Why’re you asking me? Didn’t you kinda, sorta date Bev?” Mike asks as he fidgets with a paintbrush Bill had tossed to the side. Bill’s concentrated expression visibly falters for only a second, but it’s long enough for Mike to immediately wish he didn’t say anything about Bev.

“I’m just asking, Mikey. I wanna ask someone out and… I’m nervous to do that. I just want some advice.” Bill ends his sentence with a light shrug.

Mike only stares at him, he’s not exactly sure what to say now. How can he give advice on that? He doesn’t know anything about it, hell, he can’t even accept his feelings for one person.

“Well, who is she?”

Bill’s breath noticeably hitches and his hand twitches just enough to drop his brush to the ground. Suddenly Mike understands it all at once.

“It’s a boy, isn’t it?” Mike asks carefully, knowing that this must be hard for Bill to comprehend.

Bill still doesn’t say anything, he just hesitantly nods his head. Mike leans in slowly to Bill, close enough to see into his eyes, and feels his heartbreak. His eyes are filled with tears that are threatening to spill, and the sorrow behind them makes Mike wanna cry. Slowly, he places his hands on Bill’s cheeks.

“Just… ask them to the quarry. If they say no, or call you disgusting or something terrible, we’ll protect you. Losers stick together, Bill.”

Bill snaps his head to look at Mike, he blinks his tears away and the sorrow that had been in his eyes was gone. Now there was hope.“Y-you d-don’t think I’m d-disgusting?” He asks with a slight quiver in his voice. Mike chuckles a bit, closes his eyes and smiles.

“That’s awfully hypocritical, isn’t it?”

Bill looks confused, but then he laughs, then Mike laughs. They dissolve into a content laugher, and for a minute, Mike thinks he’d like to be the guy Bill is talking about.

…

“Did you hear about Staniel and Billiam?” Richie asks as he pops a piece of gum in his mouth. He and Eddie are helping Mike deliver fresh meat around town today, all the losers do it at least once a week, the only people who haven’t yet that week are Stan and Bill.

“What about them?” Mike asks, tilting his head to the side. Come to think of it, Mike hasn’t really spoken to either of them in quite a while. He’s seen plenty of the other losers, he always does, but not them. Specifically them.

“Bill told little ol’ Eds here that he tapped Stan’s ass,” Richie said with a classic smirk.

“Beep Beep stupid! That’s not what I said!” Eddie cried out.

“Whatever, he’s gonna tap that ass now that they’re together.”

“God, you’re such an asshole!”

“You love me.”

“That doesn’t change the fact that you’re an asshole-”

Mike didn’t bother to pay attention to the rest. His mind was focused on Bill and Stan.

…

Mike goes home immediately after finishing his deliveries with Richie and Eddie. The sun is going down anyway but there was supposed to be a movie night at Bill’s. He was looking forward to it but now he’s lying in bed, staring at the wall, confused. Usually, when your crush dates someone you get jealous, what do you do when both the people you like start dating? He lets out a huff of air from his nose, what do you do when you like two people?

How can he not be jealous? Both of them have the two things he wants the most, and yet, it doesn’t bother him. What bothers him is that he can’t be a part of it, and that’s a thought he’s buried deep inside of himself. How could you wanna be apart of two people’s relationship? Do other people feel like that? He assumes not considering the only relationships he ever sees are between two people. A girl and a boy and yet here he is, pining after two boys and wants to be in a relationship with them.

This is his luck obviously. Nobody in Derry even liked him before the losers, they’re not gods who can ward off all bad luck. He hates to think about it, but he does think he’s cursed to like or be the things that Derry discriminates against. First the racism, soon the homophobia. Life is a real battle for Mike Hanlon.

He sleeps with his light on.

…

Mike has never been one to avoid tough situations. He usually faced them head on because he didn’t see the point in putting it off. This time was so different than any other time though, the situation is just designed to be stressful, he’s overwhelmed.

It’s been three weeks since he got the news about Stan and Bill, it’s also been three weeks since he’s talked to either of them. Anytime they showed up he was making a lazy excuse to go back to his farm. Whenever someone said they’d be hanging out with them, Mike would suddenly be busy that day and go home. Whenever it was Stan or Bill’s turn to help deliver meat from the farm he’d ask Ben or Eddie to tell them that he wasn’t doing it that day, and then he’d sneak his way around town to do his deliveries.

He tells himself that this is good, and this is how it should be every time he ditches them. Every time he rests his head against his pillow, when he knows the other losers are meeting up, he tells himself he’s okay with it.

When salty tears leak from his tightly shut eyes, he tells himself he’s okay. When his body shudders with quiet cries, he tells himself he’s okay. Even when he holds a framed picture of Bill and Stan on their bikes close to his heart, he tells himself he’s okay. Even as he’s swept to the dark side, Mike Hanlon says he’s okay.

He sleeps with his light on.

…

It’s been four weeks. Four weeks of being okay.

At this point, Mike prefers to just stay home and avoid the losers altogether. He’s only been doing it for three days so he doubts anyone has really noticed yet and it leaves him wondering if they ever will.

“Michael.” A stern voice commands. Mike turns his head to look at his grandpa who has a large bag on one side of him and a couple ropes in his hand. Mike knows what he’s gonna say but he knows he’ll get the reminder anyway.

“Don’t mess with anything while I’m gone, nobody should be here while I’m gone so if you see anybody outside, don’t be afraid to grab the shotgun.” Mike can rehearse this in his head over and over again if he had to. His grandpa had been planning to make a trip a few states over to get a new horse so he can start breeding them with the other horse they have. He’s been trying to find someone who manages to raise a healthy horse and has low prices. It all comes down to Mike having the house to himself for three days for the first time in six years.

“Yes, sir.” He mutters politely. He knows nobody will actually show up in that field, only one or two people drive down the street in a week. Nobody is very interested in seeing what some farmers do anyway.

It was only a few minutes more of talking before Mike was left alone to stare down into his bowl of cereal alone in his house.

…

It’s the second night of being alone and it’s just as lonely as Mike had predicted. He thought about inviting his friends over to fill the empty silence but he knows that he’d have to see Stan and Bill if he did that. He spent the first day watching tv and reading books.

…

There’s a loud knock on Mike’s door on his third night alone, Mike jumps out of his skin and almost drops his book in shock. He whips his head to look at the door to see who freaked him out so hard. There’s only a silhouette of a curly haired boy and for a moment he thinks it might be Richie. When he flicks the switch to the porch light he sees that it’s not Richie at all. It’s Stan.

Stan has tears trickling down his cheeks and dripping off his chin. Mike feels his heart crush the moment he sees how broken Stan looks. The edges of his eyes are tinted red and the bags under his eyes are darker than normal and Mike knows he’s been crying for a while.

There’s a moment when they only stare at each other, but it’s over when lightning strikes the land behind Stan and thunder shakes the house seconds later.

Mike jumps to get at the door and quickly pulls it open, almost immediately he’s being pulled into a hug. Stan lets out a loud sob when Mike returns the hug, it’s such a powerful sob it even shakes Mike to tears.

“Stan? Stan, what’s wrong?” Mike asks frantically, fear bubbles up in his stomach making him feel sick instantly.

“Everything Mikey!” Stan cried out, tightening his grip on Mike’s torso. “Everything is so wrong and I don’t know what to do anymore!”

Mike shushes him gently, he presses a kiss to the curls on top of Stan’s head, making him stutter in his cries. Mike guides both of them to the couch while holding his arm around Stan’s shoulders. Stan curls up onto Mike’s lap and keeps crying, Mike wonders if he can feel the rapid increase of his heartbeat.  

“Stanley, I need you to calm down okay? You’re okay.” He coos as he rubs Stan’s back. But Stan doesn’t seem to be listening, he only shakes his head and cries harder.

“I’m not okay.” He whispers. He pulls his body off Mike and looks dead into his eyes.

“I’m not okay Mike! I finally go out with Bill, things are amazing until I realize you’re avoiding us? You don’t come around Mike! You cancel plans with us and only hang out with Richie and Eddie or Bev and Ben! Never me, Mike!” Stan is moving so frantically, yanking his head from side to side and throwing his hands in the air. It’s so much movement but Mike can see how hurt Stan is. How much Mike hurts him.

“You really threw me for a loop, Mike. You don’t even get it, you don’t get how scared I was about dating Bill because I’ve been in love with you for years Mike. What’s worse? I love Bill too. I’m so in love with both of you, it hurt to choose who to be with, and I didn’t! I went out with Bill because he asked me! I would’ve done the same if you did too!” Stan pauses to take a breath. Mike takes a breath too, that was a lot of information at once and he’s barely keeping up with it.

“But if I went out with you, I’d still have this empty void in my heart. I’d want Bill too, a-and if I had none of you…” His voice is cracking and tears are running down his cheeks again. A few tears slip from Mike’s eyes as well, quite frankly, he can’t figure out why.

“I love you too, Stan,” Mike whispers. Stan whips his head to look at Mike, his eyes are wide like two moons, his crying stopped too. Stopped dead in its tracks.

“I… I was too scared to tell anyone, Stan. I wanted to, I promise I did, but I love Bill too.” Mike takes in a shuddery deep breath, “we’re in the same boat, Stanny.”

Stan doesn’t dare say a word. He just watches Mike, conflicted, probably scared too. There’s so much to unpack in those few words, it’s amazing how Stan’s face can stay so still. Mike thinks he’s watching his face to search for any sign that he’s lying. Mike knows Stan trusts him, probably trusts him the most out of all the losers, but Mike isn’t one to forget his trust issues.

“Mike… What do we do?” He sobs out, then he collapses on top of Mike. Mike is quick to pull him into a comforting hold, even if he thinks he might need the same amount of comforting. Eventually, Stan’s cries reduce to whimpers and then to quiet breathing. It even relaxes Mike to know that Stan has stopped crying.

“Let’s go to bed,” Mike whispers into Stan’s ear. Stan slowly nods his head, Mike gives him a little smile then hoists himself up along with Stan. Carefully he pulls Stan into a bridal style hold and starts carrying him to his bedroom.

When he reaches his bed, he’s quick but gentle to put Stan down and tuck him in. He presses a single kiss to Stan’s forehead then goes to start making a bed for himself on the couch. But he doesn’t even get two steps away because a smaller hand is reaching out and grabbing at his bicep.

“Don’t go, Mikey. Please don’t go.” Stan’s eyes are still closed, Mike kinda wonders how he knew he was walking away in the first place. He stands and considers it, could he do that? Sure they loved each other, but Stan had a boyfriend, right? But they loved the same guy…

“I won’t go, Stan.”

They sleep with the light on.

…

Mike woke up that morning only feeling pieces of content. He had one of the most beautiful boys in his arms, snuggled up to him with his full lips parted ever so slightly. Mike wanted nothing more than to lean down and kiss them, but Stan wasn’t his. God, he wanted Stan to be his, but he didn’t want just Stan. He wonders if he should consider himself lucky that Stan wants him too, him and Bill.

Carefully, he pulls himself up, trying not to wake Stan up. He’s too big to not wake him up though, in a minute Stan is blinking and yawning himself awake. Mike’s heart melts a little, he’s never seen anything look so precious before. Stan then looks up at Mike, his eyes are tired, but now the whites of his eyes have no hint of redness anymore, even his eye bags have lightened up.

“Mikey?” Stan whispers quietly. His voice is so tired too, a little raspy but Mike would consider himself lucky to wake up to it every day.

“Stan?” Mike responds just as quietly.

“I really love you… I’m sorry it took all this for me to tell you.”

“H-hey Stan… a-and Mike!” Bill greets, his voice gets a bit higher as he realizes Mike is behind Stan. Mike feels his face heat up when he realizes that Bill was excited to see him. The moment is short lived though, Bill doesn’t miss the anxious look on his boyfriend’s face.

“Hey, w-what’s wrong?” He asks with confusion in his voice. Mike feels his nerves rise up in his throat when he sees the way Stan flinches at his concern.

“Bill… We need to talk.” Stan whispers, not meeting his gaze. Bill tears his gaze from Stan and looks over at Mike for answers, but Mike only nods.

Slowly, Bill takes a step back to allow Mike and Stan to walk into his house. Stan goes first, he shuffles in as quick as he can with his eyes looking towards the ground and his head hung low. Mike goes next but he watches Bill the whole time, watching for his emotions. Bill goes in last and closes the door behind them.

“My family isn’t home right now, so we can… talk.” Bill informs the two with a hesitant tone.

Stan takes a seat on a big white armchair in the Denbrough living room. By the look of it, he’s trying to sink directly into the couch. Bill is quick to get to him, he kneels at his side and places a hand on Stan’s knee.

“A-are you okay?” He whispers with a sliver of hope in his voice, but Stan shakes his head.

And then, he speaks.

“Bill, I love you okay? Don’t get me wrong I really really love you, but I can’t lie to you. I love Mike too. I’m so fucking in love with both of you it drives me insane, I don’t know what to do because I love you Bill, and I wanna be with you. But fuck, I wanna be with Mike.”

Mike is almost afraid to see Bill’s reaction. Bill wears his heart on his sleeve most of the time so both Mike and Stan know that if he’s not happy, they’ll know immediately. When Mike does look up, he’s shocked. Bill is looking right at him, not with anger or betrayal, but… longing?

“Stan… W-why didn’t you t-tell me?” Bill whispers, his voice sounds confused, but not hurt. Mike looks over at Stan, who also looks very, very confused.

“I didn’t know how to tell you, Billy… Last night I- I went over to Mike’s and told him everything. I wouldn’t have even considered this if he didn’t tell me that he loved you too and-”

“Wait, M-Mike?” Mike looks back over to Bill, and he doesn’t need a mirror to know that his own eyes are filled with fear. In the corner of his eye, he sees Stan look at Mike in horror like he made a mistake.

“That’s- No wait Bill I-”

“Yes,” Mike says, there’s false confidence in his voice and his facial expressions betray him, but he says it. Bill stares a Mike for what feels like forever, then he looks back at Stan, then back to Mike.

Slowly, Bill walks over to Mike without saying a word. He’s watching Mike though, his eyes are softer than before. Despite his slightly off-putting walk towards him, Mike’s never felt so intrigued before. When Bill is at Mike’s feet, he kneels down to eye level and rests his hand on Mike’s cheek.

“Can I k-kiss you?” He whispers, and Mike feels his heart leap into his throat. He lets out a little gasp, then looks over at Stan for permission, as if at this point he needs it. Stan smiles and nods his head. That’s all Mike needs before he’s leaning in and pressing his lips to Bill’s.

Mike is sure he’ll never feel anything as amazing as that moment ever again. The pent-up feelings and frustration finally flooding out of Mike like a river. The feeling of his warm lips slotted against Mike’s just felt so right, it made Mike melt. He wraps his arms around Bill’s neck and pulls him as close as he can. It’s funny, Mike thinks, how someone so chaotic could have such soft lips. But he doesn’t dwell on that, he focuses on how good it feels to kiss the boy he loves. Oh, how Mike loves him.

When they pull apart for air, Mike looks over at Stan. He extends his arm to Stan, beckoning him closer. When Stan is finally in arm’s length, Mike grabs at Stan’s hip and pulls him closer, making Stan trip a little bit right at Mike’s lips. He presses his lips to Stan’s and kisses him too. The kiss is almost the same, but less like fireworks and more like a comforting, loving feeling. Stan laughs into the kiss, just a giggle but enough to make Mike’s heart flutter. When they break away, all three boys shift their gazes to one another. There’s dead silence before Bill breaks out into a full blown laugh, then Stan laughs again, and then Mike.

“I love you guys,” Mike whispers.

…

Mike lays between Bill and Stan that night. They have their arms around his chest and they connect their fingers. Their heads are rested on Mike’s shoulders and they’re dead asleep.

A single tear escapes Mike’s eye. The feeling in Mike’s heart, the blossoming, loving feeling is all he’s ever wanted. He lets out a huff of a laugh and smiles, he’s got everything he’s ever wanted. Sure, he’ll probably get in trouble the next morning when his family comes home and finds him gone, but at that moment he can’t care. He only cares about his two boyfriends who rest on his chest. His two boyfriends, the two he loves, and the two who love him back.

That night he sleeps with the light off.
