TW! mention of sh and murder
__________________________
You and Eddie only wake up because you hear a very loud knock on the door. The knocking continues for a solid 9 minutes before Eddie walks to the door. "Oh my gosh, what happened," you can hear him say in his comforting voice. You run into the room to see what was the matter. You see Max crying in Eddie's arms. "Can I talk to Ellie? Alone." Eddie nods and Max brings you outside.
"Mom lost her job." Max cries into your arms. "I just applied for a job, but it's not going to be enough. Ellie, we are already in debt. Please help!" You hug her for a second. "I'll go apply at Family Video." You say. "It's going to be okay Max." She was so upset. "I keep forgetting you're 16." you smile putting your hands on her shoulders. "Oh shut up," she wipes her tears. "I- uh- need to talk to you about something else." She looks at you. "I had to tell Eddie yesterday, but I think I need to tell you, too." You pull down your sleeves. Max looked in horror. "Oh my god," she had tears forming in her eyes, "Ellie, no. I can't lose you." She went in to hug you.
You walk back in the trailer to see Eddie on the couch. "Everything okay?" he asks. "For now," you sit next to him. "Could you drive me to the Family Video?" "Yeah, I have to drop off the movie soon anyways." "I have to change," you say, running over to the door. Eddie follows you like a puppy. You pick out a cute yellow shirt and some shorts. You were about to head to the bathroom, but considered what Eddie said. "Fuck it," you muttered to yourself. You took off your shirt, Eddie shocked you came out of your shell, was gawking from your bed. "Fuck," you could hear him mumble. You put on your shirt and pants as Eddie stares into your soul. "What?" you say jokingly. "God, Ellie," he says leaning back as you walk over to him, "you're so beautiful." He pulls you on his lap, not daring to break the eye contact. "Stop," you look away blushing. He grabs your chin, "seriously." He says pulling your chin close. "I just can't believe you're all mine." "And why is that?" "Shit," he lets go of your chin, "look at me, I'm a freak." "A freak with a soft spot." "How dare you!" he sits up offended, "a soft spot? Me? Never!" You lean forward, making him lean back. "Are you sure?" you place kisses on his neck. "Fuck," he whispers in a deep voice that you almost didn't hear. "I'm sorry," you kiss him behind the ear, "I didn't hear you." "Fine! I have a sweet spot." "Yeah, I know, it's right here." You kiss a certain spot on his neck. Eddie whimpers under his breath. "I guess I have two then," he says, "you're driving me crazy. You keep this up, you won't be able to handle finishing what you started." You pulled back, that sentence alone gave you butterflies.
You hear the door creak open and hear a "shit, shit, shit!" You get off of Eddie. You open the door. "Yes?" It was Mike, Will, Lucas, Dustin, Eleven, and Max. "Sorry," Dustin says laughing. "Keep the door open 3 inches," Eleven says. "Oh shut up," you slam the door. Eleven opens it 3 inches. "Fine, you win! What do you nerds want from me?" you opens the door as Eddie leans on the frame. "We needed to ask you something." Mike says pointing to Max's room, "without Eddie." Eleven stayed outside with Will to make sure Eddie didn't eavesdrop. "I'd hate to burst your bubble, but I actually have things to do." You pace around the room. "We'll be quick," Dustin says. "It's Eddie's birthday this Wednesday." Mike whispers. "Holy shit, you're right," you whisper back. "We have a plan, but we need your help." Mike says smiling.
"What were y'all talking about?" Eddie smirks. "Nothing!" everyone says in sync. "Sure, sure," he walks around. "Alright, well, we have to go." you say pulling Eddie out the door. "Be safe!" Max shouts. "Whatever!" you shout back. You hop in the car as Eddie grabs the movie, and a few more he never turned in. "So what exactly do you need to do there?" he asks, starting the car. "Apply for a job," you say looking out the window. Eddie puts his hand on your thigh. "Max's mom lost her job." you say looking to Eddie, "I have to be a mother." You giggle, "I have to support another family." "Are you sure you want this?" he asks. "Well, it gives me purpose. I love Max with my whole heart. I can't let her be brought down because of her mom." "Speaking of moms, we need to stop by the police station." You get nervous. When Eddie pulls into the Family Video, Robin runs outside. "Hi Ellie!" You hug her. "What are you doing here?" She pulls you inside. "I need to apply for a job." You say looking at Steve, who is helping a costumer. "I actually think my boss is here today." She runs to the back. Steve checks out the lady he was talking to and starts talking to you. "I think I got myself a lady!" Eddie puts his movies on the counter. "Pfft! As if!" you laugh. "Oh shut up," Steve laughs. Eddie looks a little hot headed. Robin walks out, "okay, he can do an interview in 10 minutes." "Wow! Really? Thanks Robin." You say hugging her. "Oh, it was nothing." Eddie wraps his arms around your waist. "How are you and Eddie doing?" Robin asks. "Oh, absolutely terrible, he can hardly look at me." You say sarcastically as Eddie starts kissing your neck. "That's truly awful." Robin laughs. "God love is so overrated." Steve rolls his eyes. "Says the guy who pulls no girls!" Eddie shouted. Everyone except Steve laughed. "Meet me at my trailer, tonight." Eddie says rubbing his cold rings on your skin. "Ooh," Robin says taking Eddie's movies, "how sexy!" "Oh fuck you!" you giggle. "Hey, man thats my job!" You push him off of you. "You're failing at that job already," you hide your smile. Eddie shuffled back offended, in a goofy way. "What the fuck guys!?" Steve says covering his ears. "Fine, fine I'll leave." He puts his hands up walking backwards out the door., "I'll be in the car." "Mrs…?" a guy walks out, who you presume is the boss walks out. "Quinn, but you can just call me Ellie." He nods and walks to the back, motioning you to come.
The guy asks you some questions about movies. You grew up with movies, so it was no problem. "Do you know Steve and Robin?" he asks you. "I practically grew up with them." "Well, you will get along with them I hope… you're hired. You can start this Saturday." You smiled and walked out. "Well?" Robin smiled. "I got the job!" "Yay!" she cheers. "Hurray, now I have to spend time with the both of you." Steve smiles, but says it in a sarcastic tone. "Want me to call Nancy and see if she's free today?" Robin says touching the phone. "Sure," you say looking at the parking lot, "but make it in an hour, I have something to do first." "Sweet," Robin calls Nancy, "we can pick you up at your house I guess." You walk out to Eddie, who is jamming out to Ozzy Osborne. You jump in the car and smile. "I got it!" "Yay!" Eddie says kissing your check. He drives to the station with his hand on your thigh. You were a bit nervous, but were excited to rat out your mom. After all the shit she put you through, you could put her through the hell she deserved.
"You ok?" Eddie snaps you out of your thoughts. "Yeah," you say looking down. "Just let me know," he looks back at the road. "Can I get some more drugs?" you ask. "Well sure sweetheart," he says reaching into his wallet, "I'll just buy them for you." You smile and hop out of the car. You hoped you never had to go to a police station. "Hello, fellas what can I do for you?" a police officer said sitting at the front desk. "I- would uhm- like to report a murder."
