You had to admit to yourself, he was cute, in the non conventional sense. However he put on a facade of being this mean, crude character, therefore it was a very small handful of people who got to see how much of a sap he really was.

You had been part of hellfire for a little over a year now, after you’d played a substitute for Mike and Eddie had just decided your vibes made the team stronger.

But last night, things had changed. Drastically.

You had attended a party hosted by none other than Steve Harrington, and Eddie had crashed it, however he hadn’t left alone. Nor woken up alone. No, you had gone home with him. Back to his trailer.

He freaked, he couldn’t ruin his friendship with you over this, and he just begged you wouldn’t make a deal out of it. When you took your usual seat at his right hand side he exhaled shakily, voice cracking as he read out the story behind the campaign.

The rest of them knew something was up, but they were the most sexless people to ever grace the halls of Hawkins high, so you didn’t really feel worried that they’d clock anything.
