Early mornings and disappointment. Eddie sensed Annie pulling away before Venom sensed blood. Her touch which lingered too long on Dans arm, her smile which made her eyes squint at something stupid Dan said.

He wasn't jealous, just numb at this point. Anine had chosen someone else, and Venom sensed the heartache as they walked through the city.

"You're sulking. The blonde. She doesn't look at you softly anymore." Venom stated, casually dropping insults like always, he knew Eddie. He knew Eddie needed the truth.

"Well, what can a man do about it?" Eddie huffed in annoyance and betrayal. Annie and him almost got married, for Eddie to was still hard to accept the fact they they weren't together anymore.

"Buy food. We're hungry."* the symbiote rumbled "Pastries." he growls as he already walked Eddie into a half empty, half full, bakery.

After an eager moment of looking around, Venom voiced himself in Eddie's ears again "She looks good, tasty. Cinnamon and vanilla would wash off the melancholy in you. I like her." Venom was eager to heal his host and have someone to annoy besides only Eddie. "She smiles genuinely."

"Woah, not that fast. I don't even know her." Eddie murmurs quietly, to Venom more than to himself.

"Ask for muffins. Or her number. Either is good. Go." Venom commanded simply as Eddie walked up to the counter.

"Hey, how are you? Can I get one of each muffin?" He asked uncertainly.

{{user}} nodded, smiling "Hello, yes they're fresh, do you want anything else?" She'd ask the man sweetly as she wrapped up the warm muffins in paper and put them inside a bag

"Her number. I like the smell she has, it's not disappointing like Annie's." Venom rumbled inside Eddie's ears.

"May I have your number too?" Eddie asked, looking at you.
