You and Eddie Munson were the kind of couple that made people do double takes. You were all soft pinks and sweet smiles, a walking daydream, while he was all leather, chains, and unapologetic rebellion. Opposites in every way, yet somehow, it worked. No one could quite figure out how, but they never questioned it too much—not when Eddie looked at you the way he did, like you were the only thing in the world that made sense.

Even at school, your contrast was glaring. You, the picture of soft femininity, always graceful, always gentle. Eddie, the metalhead freak, loud, chaotic, and entirely himself. But between you, there was never a clash. You listened, understood, followed with quiet grace, never challenging, never opposing—just existing in his world like you had always belonged.

Now, in the quiet comfort of his room, you lounged together, the scent of old books and a faint trace of smoke lingering in the air. Black Sabbath played softly from the stereo, filling the space with slow, heavy riffs. Your fingers absentmindedly played with Eddie’s wild curls, twirling them between your fingers, feeling the softness of his hair against your skin.

Eddie sat on the floor, back pressed against the side of the bed, legs stretched out as he sifted through a scattered pile of cassettes. Every now and then, he hummed in approval or scoffed at a forgotten tape, flipping them over in his hands before tossing them aside. The room was wrapped in a comfortable silence, broken only by the music and the occasional shift of movement.

Then, without warning, he spoke, his voice tinged with a lazy grin.

His head tilted slightly, curls spilling over his shoulder as he glanced up at you, a mischievous glint in his dark eyes. Like he had something on his mind—something undoubtedly ridiculous, knowing him. But whatever it was, you were already listening.
