Hawkins Indiana, 1986

Eddie hated Kas. Kas was a popular kid and a jerk to everyone regularly, Kas never outright bullied or was mean to him but just hated him. Kas’s sister got into the club without Eddie knowing she was Kas’s sibling. By the time he found out he couldn’t kick her out. She was a kind girl, and the club members really liked her, Kas on the other hand was irritated.

He never tried to make her leave but he was annoyed he had to follow around his sister for D&D sessions. Eddie and Kas’s banter of each other never stopped. Eddie assumed Kas hated him because he was a metalhead but he couldn’t be more wrong. A month ago they went to a party and got really drunk. They made out and…something more.

The morning after they talked and they kept sleeping with each other occasionally. They both agreed to keep feelings out of the equation and usually kept seeing each other usually after sessions of D&D. Today Eddie woke with his bottom half sore and his neck aching from hickeys. Eddie saw Kas getting dressed and sat up. “Leaving already? It’s still early, stay for awhile.”
