part 2 of this

pairing: rockstar!Eddie Munson x fem!popstar reader

content warning(s): use of “fuck”, “shit” and “dick”. sorry but bad writing

Word count: 1536

summary: after your interview, everybody was expecting you and Eddie to be the next big Hollywood couple, but he did not make a move… so you did and invited him to your concert.

notes: the images DO NOT describe reader’s appearance! Only used for aesthetic/clothes

Yes Eddie was a coward.

Every gossip magazine and tv show was talking about your interview. It was all that people could think about. The most rockstar of all rockstars and the cutes of all the cutest pop singers having a crush on each other was so fucking cute.

Your pretty ribbons. His heavy metal chains. Your impeccable gloves. His big rings. You had flawless skin while his own was marked with ink everywhere. Your high heels were so tiny compared to his big black combat boots. You looked like a pure fairy and he looked like a sexy zombie.

Yeah. It was really fucking cute.

But even after everyone approved this possible romance, Eddie could not find himself going to talk to you. You were so perfect, your nickname was "America's Angel". If this was a fairytale, you would be the princess and Eddie surely would't be the hero... at least he thought so.

But since you confessed your feelings on national tv, the guitarrist was suffering from a big problem: he couldn't fuck or date anyone else.

Eddie was used to bring girls backstage after his shows, sometimes even boys. He enjoyed a good fuck or just someone who could blow his dick. But now? Everytime he took someone backstage he just could not do it. He kept thinking about you. Shit, he never even really talked to you. Just some head nods and smiles at award shows, but no conversations ever.

But at the moment he was holding a note that was sent to him he couldn't belive his eyes.

Well, the thing is, Corroded Coffin was a headliner band of this really big festival, taking on the biggest rock stage of it and... you were one of the headliners of the biggest pop stage of the same festival too. And you both were playing on the same day! which made you send flowers to the band's dressing room, to him.

The boys were really having fun with this. Eddie's face was red and he just could not take his eyes of the note that was attached to the bouquet. White daisies. Just like the name of the first track on the lattest Corroded album.

"Hi honey. I would like very much if you could watch my show tonigth... i'm gonna be looking for your pretty curls in the crowd. I'll be so sad if you can't make it... and you don't wanna make me sad, right?

– your wife"

And a red mark of lipstick at the end that literally screamed you. The pretty handwritting. The hearts on the "i"s.

Oh My God. Tonigth was the nigth a Munson is going to die.

...

The day was already fading away, the stars starting to shine and you were breathing in and out trying to calm yourself. The crowd was waiting for you. Everybody screaming. And Jesus, you swore you'd never seen an crowd this big. Your manager said that were about 40 thousand people there to see your concert. You could literally feel the vomit coming down your throat, something that happens when you are anxious. But you couldn't do this rigth now. You needed to go on the stage in 1:30 minutes, there was no time for anxiety.

But what if he doesn't come?

Oh my God he is not coming, you are sure of that.

Why would he come? He probably didn't meant that he had a crush on you. Well he could have a crush on you, but that don't mean that he actully likes you...

Stop!

Breathe in. Breathe out.

You took one last look at your dress. Such a pretty baby blue mini dress. Checked out your white velvet gloves, matching your long white heel boots. Touched your blue ribbon. Okay. Everything was okay.

The next thing you knew was that you were already walking on the stage with a big and enchanting smile, hearing the most high screams ever.

...

you put his name on the list. His name was in your goddamn list.

The VIP area of the pop stage was filled with the guesses that were on your list. But it wasn't really full, just some people that were probably your friends and some daugthers of famous old singers who worshiped you. The view of the stage was really unique, everything could be seen.

All eyes were on Eddie the moment he crossed the line of the VIP area. He could not care less. Eddie just crossed the room to the front to get a better view of the stage. He smiled at the sight of the gigant crowd waiting for you. The vip area was above the ground next to the stage and the Corroded Coffin front man was so freaking pleased to be there, cause at the moment you were up the stage, he could see your pretty figure: smiling in that beautiful outfit, mic in your hand, ready to rock.

And shit you give a hell of a show. That siren voice was like heaven in Munson's ears and that pretty dances were starting to drive him crazy. You were driving him crazy. He was sure you were born to do this. The people screaming your lyrics and reactin everytime you did something cute or even when you laughed of happines. Cause, c'mon, you're so cute. Sexy and cute. How could you be both? Was what Eddie thought during the whole set.

Ok, the rockstar was falling in love with the popstar.

But when Eddie looked at his watch he realized that he was running late to his own show.

Shit he needed to actully run. But he didn't want to do it. He wanted to stay... to talk to you.

"Hey" he shouted to one of your friends: Daisy Green, the country star that was your best friend. She looked at him with a tired face "can you tell her..."

"I tell her that you came and that you are asking her to see the end of your show and go to your dressing room" she took the words out of his mouth.

"Thanks!" He smiled at her and ran off in the opposite direction.

...

When you went to your backstage, you were hoping to see that wild curls somewhere. But Eddie wasn't there. the euphoria that took over your body at the end of the show was washing away.

Of course that he would't be there. He was busy, he probably was preparing for his set, he would not even want—

Your thoughts are interrupted by Daisy.

“He is waiting for you" she said rolling her eyes seeing your growing smile.

You see her next to her Mallory Grace, the biggest disco sensation , and one of your besties along with Daisy, givin' thumbs up.

...

Ok, you never ran as much as you did to get on the rock stage before Corroded show ended. Jumped all the staff and equipment. Legs were burning. That meant you cared? Not at all. Your goal was accomplished faster than expected when you heard the sound of one of the band's biggest hit from not so far away. And when you hit the backstage, their manager was waiting for you, he guided you to the side of the stage, where you could see Eddie closer than ever.

The way he played that guitar was doin' things to you. Legs squeezing, heart beating fast and wet thoughts. His voice loud and deep, sweaty body and tongue stretched out. God he was hot.

...

When Eddie saw that pretty little thing still dressed in her show clothes at the left side, he couldn't hide the grinn on his face. So he gave a hell of a concert that would turn out to be the most iconic rock concert in the history of the festival... all cause of you.

So when it ended and Corroded team cheer them up for the amazing work. Eddie came towards you. Well he was trying to do so since he left the stage, but everybody was holding him back, but he shut them up, coming in your direction with the biggest smile ever.

Oh god. He was so pretty like that. Shirtless, wild hair, low waist leather pants and boots. Your heart was goin' to explode. But instead of exploding, you just grinned back at him, waiting for Munson to get close.

Eddie was hypnotized by your angel looks. So delicate and beautiful. It was his mind or he was sweating more than when he was playing?

Jesus, what he was going to say? Was he smelling good? Fuck, of course not. He needed a towel to dry himself a bit? But the guitarrist wanted to talk to you... but you are so gorgeous and untouchable, looking like a fairy. Shit.

Before you both realized, he was right in front of you.

"you came" he said mesmerized by the view.

"why would't i? Needed to be good for my husband" and Eddie was dead. How can you say something like that and expect him to be alright?

"Fuck, princess, you're killing me" and you couldn't help but giggle. The most pretty in his opinion.

Princess. You like that. Could get used to it.

(An incoherent rambling/pondering below about when people say things like “the good old days of television” when things weren’t so “woke”)

Sometimes I truly wonder why people say, “ahhh, the good ol’ days” or “this couldn’t be made today!” when they think of old shows/movies that they watched when they were younger. Shows like “All In The Family”, “My Two Dads”, “Miami Vice”, etc. or this movie that popped up on my dash called “Blazing Saddles”. I know when some people say that phrase “good ol days” they mean the times where things weren’t as “political” (aka diverse or caring about minorities), but it seems that a lot of them missed the point that these shows were teaching. And when people say “couldn’t be made today!” they.. also still may be missing the point (I mean, perhaps one reason why people might be offended by something is because of misunderstanding of what the piece of media is trying to say).

If y’all have seen these shows then y’all know what I’m saying. But I think when they say “this couldn’t be made today” I think they’re right… but for different reasons. Let’s take “My Two Dads” an 80s show about two dudes taking care of this girl, but they aren’t sure who she belongs to. They raise her together, they’re very loving, and heck they even had an episode about how they are equal to families with a father/mother structure and they have a right to keep their kid. People nowadays would accuse them of pushing an agenda and brainwashing the children and tryin to destroy the nuclear family.

Next, let’s look at “Benson” a spinoff from the controversial comedy “Soap” (check out Matt Baume’s video abt them). “Benson” is a hilarious show and it’s about a wisecracking, sarcastic/smart alec African American man climbing the political ladder. He starts as a butler on “Soap”, he’s moved to the governor’s mansion and becomes the head of household affairs, later is promoted to state budget director, then Lieutenant Governor, and finally runs for governor… but unfortunately the show ends on a cliff hanger so we’ll never know whether he won or lost. Benson is the smartest one in the governor’s mansion, but the governor himself is a bit of an airhead, he’s silly, a little bit.. incompetent. But if this show was made today, people would say that the show is saying that black people are smarter than white people, they would be missing the point..

And Miami Vice, an 80s show that has been terribly warped by pop culture (think of what happened to Star Trek). People think of this show as the “cool cars, hot women, expensive fashion” type of show, but it’s so much more than that. Mutuals could explain this much clearly than I could. This show addresses issues like mental health, the cop system being very corrupted, lgbt rights, sexual assault (they don’t get it right all the time, but when they do, they do). People idolize Sonny (the main character), and wish to be him, but they fail to see how depressing his life is. They only see him as the Cool Guy™️, but he’s not necessarily that. If it was made today.. it would either just turn out like a “Fight Club” situation, people misunderstanding it, or people calling it propaganda.

And Wiseguy, a show abt an undercover agent things and such. There’s this arc that will forever remain relevant. The KKK arc (I forget the actual name for the arc). The racists blaming minorities for their loss of jobs, ruining the world, saying that the white race is in danger (the same old, same old racist shit). This show has been forgotten and I don’t really know why, it’s really good. This show would be labeled as woke and would be written off.

I think some of this also comes down to bad media literacy skills and such.. they fail to see messages that were targeted toward them, were trying to teach them something, but they miss it completely or they willingly ignore it…

#I’m sorry this was so messy #I’m sleepy and there was another conversation occurring right next to me #y’all know what I’m saying right?#miami vice #sonny crockett #don johnson #80s #my two dads #benson 1980 #media literacy #blazing saddles #wiseguy #star trek #pop culture #all in the family
