Billy and Eddie being open about their relationship. It starts with Max, because she’s always around. Billy is basically her third parent, often scowls that he’s her only parent. And with Max comes Eleven; two peas in a pod, those two, and there’s no use sneaking around them. They’re not the types to gossip, anyway — not with anyone but each other. So, fine, they know.
Heather, too, is impossible to hide from. Billy would sneak around the back of the pool, in an alcove outside the locker rooms, and Eddie would meet him there. They’d smoke, shoot the shit, sometimes kiss a little. Heather was unfazed the first time she caught them, just rolled her eyes and told Billy he had ten minutes left. After that, she always made sure the coast was clear for them, snapping at anyone who tried to go back there when she knew they were there.
Then it’s Eddie’s band, because Billy starts hanging around, killing time before he’s due at work. He kicks back, smokes, commentates. The guys are nervous at first. This is Billy Hargrove, after all. Keg King Hargrove, jock superstar, machismo wrapped in leather and bolstered by muscle cars and Marlboros. Gareth always has his haunches up, protective of Eddie, worried that Billy might have some ulterior motive. But he doesn’t. He’s chill. He just hangs, and he seems comfortable — with Eddie, at least. Even teases him, calls him pretty, calls him babe. It all sounds ironic, silly, until Jeff mentions that he saw Eddie blushing, that the way Eddie looks at Billy is a little more than friendly. He saw them together, close together, behind the Hideout after a show, had wanted to say something but didn’t want to out them in public. Gareth tests the waters, jokingly, safely. The next time the two play-flirt at rehearsal, he quips that they should get a room and Eddie looks at Billy, “What do you say?” And Billy brushes him off, makes a joke of it all, but he kisses Eddie before he leaves and that’s it. They know now, and it’s okay.
This leads to Billy crashing Hellfire meetings. There’s a few more people, sure, but most of them are younger, freshman and sophomores, the freaks of the future that Eddie pulls under his wing. Billy knows his reputation, knows that the kids fear him too much and respect Eddie too deeply to mess with them. He sits by Eddie, holds his hand, lets Eddie rest a hand on his leg or sling an arm over his shoulders. It feels easy, natural, and no one seems to care. Lucas never even seems to notice, already knows from being around Max and, by extension, Billy. Mike and Dustin? They take longer to come around, always wary, at least until they realize that knowledge is spreading through the school, that the rumor on the street is that Hargrove has taken a liking to the school freak and that his scary dog privilege extends to everyone around Munson.
They have fun with the rumors, let them run wild, refuse to confirm or deny anything to anyone who isn’t already in their circle. Their friends get in on the joke, drop buckwild lore about them just to see what might spread, report back with their findings. Billy and Eddie are amused by it all. They’re secure in their relationship. They’re just in love, and openly so, and they’ve got a band of people around them who will absolutely fight for their right to stay that way.

Billy Hargrove is a stubborn, obnoxious boy. He doesn't like letting people know what's going on in his head, it's what his dear old dad taught him. But once he finally opens up, his attitude changes for the better.
Some would say that Eddie appearing in Billy's life was a good thing. Truly, Eddie helped him for the better, showing him what being loved was like. Billy truly loved it, more than anything. Eddie made his life better. He never realized why Billy treated him and the others like shit back when he was in high school. He helped deconstruct that, he built Billy back up, made him a better person. Until the gates opened back up.
Billy thought that the scars on his stomach were enough of a reminder of his trauma, but no. The bastard had to take something else from him, something he truly cared about. It could've been anything other than that. But no. He just had to come back and deprive him of one of the only things that makes him truly happy.
When he ran up to Dustin that day, he was expecting anything other than Eddie. Blood spilling from his mouth, the same it had done to Billy when he was rushed to the hospital. But Eddie couldn't be helped, he refused to be helped. So Billy stayed next to him, for as long as it took him to stop suffering. To die. He held Eddie's hand the whole time, he couldn't bring himself to let go.
The last thing Billy did for Eddie was kiss his forehead. That's all Eddie would let him do, he didn't want to see Billy in pain.
Billy helped Dustin up, letting him lean on his shoulder. He was barely keeping it together. Both of them were limping and there was no way Dustin could hold Billy body weight. The only reason they were both limping was because Eddie had insisted that Billy went before him so he couldn't stop what he was going to do.
There's nothing else they can do until the others come back.
Steve asked where Eddie was. Dustin couldn't form words, so Billy tried. All he could get out was a sorry before Steve had the guts to bring him into a hug. Billy leaned into it. That's all he could do, all he could bring himself to do.
Eddie changed him for the better and he was never going to forget it.

I think what I like about mungrove is that Eddie would be a highly touchy, affectionate partner who does not hold back on praise and Billy would lean into it all cocky and charming like he’s unaffected but would be melting inside because he’s not used to it.
Even before they start dating, solely fuck buddies somewhat friends, Eddie would treat Billy like he’s special and Billy would fall head over heels for that shit. Eddie is funny and charming and cares so much. Billy would not be immune, even if he tried really hard to act like he was. Eddie is just happy to be there honestly, he thinks Billy is very pretty and endearing beneath all the rough edges <3

two gays one bathroom.
summary ; eddie munson is kinda losing his shit today and looks at billy hargroves dick in the urinal. billys bi but doesn't know it. mostly crack blurbs. use of reclaimable slurs. nsfw but no fucking!!!!!
Tumblr media
eddie sure would of preferred a heads up on the fact the hottest man alive had moved into hawkins. maybe he actually would of brushed his hair, worn a shirt with less stains on it.
he only had himself to blame. feeding his attention into selling weed and campaign planning left no room for gossip between clients nor friends.
but the damage was already done. eddie showed up to school leaning more to the homeless bum look than metal game master.
billy was the first to point it out after a — sexually charged — shoulder bump in the hallway.
and just maybe eddie would have enough time to gather his wits to yell an insult back if his dick wasnt half hard.
but he didn't, and he was halfway to popping his third worst public boner — yes there was a list.
the rest of his day was bided by skipping class and hanging out in the restroom. mostly debating the morality of masturbation in school or complaining he was too sober.
people walked in and out, as what occurs in public restrooms, but eddie threw tantrums. and bit his nails and mentally sighed when whispers of him being a crackhead caught his ears.
and eddie's solution to this? pissing in a urinal. the ultimate sign of masculinity. taking a whiz, standing. he was more of a sitting stall guy, another reason for his famed title, but if he sits down now he might have another tantrum.
not even a minute after his fly was unzipped, billy fucking hargrove walked in. the cologne was a telltale sign.
and maybe the bro code was different in california because billy chose the urinal right next to eddie. and that in itself screamed a little bit neurodivergent.
whatever moral compass eddie had was gone with the wind. a little peak wouldnt hurt; eddie gruelled it around in his mind. hesitant. he knew god was testing him — or blessing. who knows what that woman is up to these days?
"jesus christ." billy looked over at eddie, who was very obviously looking at his dick.
and the way billy went ridgid could easily be mistook for bashfulness. but it didn't last.
"like what you see or what, faggot?" contradictory to eddie, billy didnt like the way it rolled of his tongue. it reminded him of bad memories. but whatever he must do for appearances sake.
"pft, like you aren't one too." now that was a mistake. by both parties. eddie more so for adding that extra too in there, and billy for not denying it. opting to clear his throat and finish his business in silence.
zipping his fly and patting eddie's back condescendingly as he left. and the passing thought that billy didnt bother to wash his hands was miniscule in comparison to the fact he just made indirect contact with a porno—rific sized dick of the hottest hawkins resident.
he was soooo jerking off tonight.

Six Sentence Swensday Saturday
i love this and I love your sentences @lizzy0305 😈
“There you go,” Eddie chuckles proudly and is graced with the cutest blush he’s ever seen on anyone. Brendon initiates the next kiss, intent to continue to learn as long as Eddie was willing to teach.  “URIE!” Brendon yanks off Eddie’s lips and startles at the shout. When Eddie turns towards the obnoxiously pitchy voice, he sees Brendon's bandmates. The shout comes specifically from the songwriter, Ryan, who even under all that black eyeliner Eddie could make out the daggers being hurtled his way.  “C-Coming,” Brendon says, and scrambles off his lap in an anxious attempt to make it up to Ryan.  Eddie bit his tongue, knowing his sexual innuendo would not be appreciated or welcome.  “Yeah, I’m sure you fucking did.” Ryan delivers the inudeno anyway, but a lot meaner and shame-laced than Eddie would have...

Mungrove Drabble
The first time Eddie Munson and Billy Hargrove hung out was accidental. Eddie had left some lame party after barely turning any profit, his bag of narcotics heavier than his bag of cash. Billy had parked his Camaro sideways in an empty parking lot, his music playing just loud enough for Eddie to hear it. Eddie was not going to bother Billy as he walked by the parking lot, it wasn't in his nature, but Billy spotted Eddie and whistled, "Hey, Munson!" Across the empty parking lot, his smooth voice carrying in the night.
Eddie looked around, hesitant at first, because Billy had a reputation around town for being a jerk. But Eddie remembered what Steve had told him, about how Billy almost died protecting Max and El after being flayed. Eddie thought back to his own time in the upside down and felt the large scar on his chest and stomach throb dully. Eddie had barely survived. With Steve's piece of secret information on Billy in mind, Eddie crossed the parking lot. "Hey, Hargrove, what's up?" Eddie asked casually once he arrived near the Camaro.
Billy looked Eddie up and down for a moment, like he was sizing up the older guy for the first time. "You, uh, wouldn't happen to have anything stronger, would you?" Billy held up his cigarette as he asked. Eddie nodded, suddenly revealing a bag of pre rolled joints as if he were a magician. He should have known Billy wanted drugs, it seemed as if lately no one wanted anything else from Eddie. Billy nodded again, "spark one of those up," Billy wasn't typically the type to stand around talking with very many people, but one thing Eddie and Billy had in common was bad reputations so he thought maybe Eddie wouldn't be scared of him. Billy pulled a bill from his pocket and handed it to Eddie, "I'll take as many of those pre-rolls as this will buy me. Been in a lot of pain ever since..." Billy trailed off. Everyone around town had been told some government coverup, the real story of what happened to him was only known by the few who were there, or so he thought.
Eddie finished lighting the joint and passed it to Billy before counting out 5 more and passing them over, folding the bill and putting it in his pocket. Eddie didn't see the point in pretending he didn't know what he knew, didn't see the benefit in pretending he didn't go through a similar hell. "I, uh... know it wasn't a fire at Starcourt Mall. Just like I didn't nearly get revenge murdered by Jason Carver last year," Eddie said the name like it were a joke. "I know about the Upside Down, and about what happened to you." Eddie said it all so matter-of-factly simply because he had given up on pretenses. Half the town thought he killed Chrissy, and a good chunk thought he killed Jason, too. He was so hated he could barely turn a profit at a party and the first person in months to want to just stand and talk with him was Billy Hargrove of all people. To be honest, Eddie was pretty desperate for companionship. Eddie thought after everything they went through together last year that he, Steve, Nancy, and Robin would have all been like a new group of best friends but, they weren't. Whatever. Eddie should have known better.
"Are you... are you saying you got flayed, too?" Billy asked Eddie, his golden face going pale, his mind racing at the memory of being flayed.
"No... no. I just nearly got devoured by demobats," Eddie shrugged, lifting up his shirt to reveal the pattern of scars covering his body.
Billy's eyes widened as he took in the sight. Eddie's scars were much like his own, bright pink and covering most of his torso.
Billy took another long haul off of the joint before passing it back to Eddie, "figures," Billy laughed, an unfamiliar sound in Eddie's ears.
"What figures?" Eddie asked Billy, watching the way the silver moon reflected in Billy's blue eyes like miniature oceans.
"Just... figures. That two of the most hated guys in town actually helped save it," Billy pondered.
The two of them stood there for a bit longer, gazing at the moon while they shared their smoke, until finally one of them commented they needed to get home. Billy offered Eddie a ride and the two found themselves exchanging phone numbers with promises to continue hanging out. "Us freaks have to stick together," Eddie winked to Billy on his way out of the Camaro, which to Eddie's surprise made Billy laugh in agreement, "yeah, sure, see you later, Freak." Billy said affectionately before driving off.

How it started
Eddie and you have been semi dating since the summer before your fourth year. It was never anything really serious, it was more like good friends with benefits. The benefits being sometimes kissing and romantic cuddling and sex but that's it, you pay him for the last thing, he told you a million times you don't need to but you always do, because you simply can.
He did catch feelings for you but was too scared to admit them
You hoped he would pass this year but you knew all your hopes were in vain as he barely passed last year even with your help
On the first day of school you could hear a very loud car pull up somewhere in the school parking lot, probably a flashy, loud, sports car. Either a new kid joined or someone won a small lottery, you didn't care enough to look behind you.
You entered the classroom way earlier than any other student normally would and sat in your usual seat. Soon more and more students entered the classroom and filled the seats from back to front.
The bell rang a minute after the teacher entered the classroom, she started reading out all the names. She soon read out a new name, while you surely couldn't remember all the names, you were at least familiar on hearing all of them except this one.
At that someone entered the classroom, everyone looked over to see who it was, it was definitely no one you recognized. "Ah speak of the devil. Class this is our new student, would you like to introduce yourself?"
She asked and he smiled and introduced himself, William "Billy" Hargrove, moved from San Francisco and is 18 years old. You could hear all the girls melt at the sight of him, it annoyed you if you were being honest. You wouldn't deny that he wasn't handsome, but that handsome? No.
You could see the way he eyed the classroom, you could smell the fake smile on his face. Guessing from the way he dressed, he was surely a typical attention seeking bad boy, maybe someone could finally be Steve's competition.
"How interesting! There should be an extra seat next to miss/mister/mx (L/n) right over there." Of course she would sit him next to you, she expected you to help him out, like they don't teach anything in that sunny California.
After a few minutes of the class out of the corner of you eye you could see a paper being thrown on your desk. "So (L/n) huh? What's your name?"
Of course he was bored, you didn't expect anything better. You pulled out you note book from your previous year, after pulling out a paper you responded back.
"The name's (Y/n), I'll borrow you my old notebook so that you can copy it somewhere. I recommend you do. Ms. Cambell is a real devil when it comes to knowing stuff from the previous year, comes with being a chemistry teacher I guess. Don't get used to my help please, I already have enough idiots begging for it."
After putting the note in the notebook you handed it too him, the semi surprised look made it worth just a little bit. You didn't get a single note after that, he probably figured you weren't that impressed my him.
Soon the class ended and everyone gathered around his desk, asking him a million and one questions he barely have the time to answer. You could hear one of the students gasp "Is that (L/n)'s notebook?"
Oh no
Everyone looked at you with a very surprised look, god did you hate Tommy H. What a prick. "Dude what did you bribe them with? Last time I asked they didn't give me shit"
"Well I'm my defense you had time and the ability to write it down, he's the new kid so I'm cutting him some slack, you guys get enough help as it is."
Everyone groaned at your words, they knew how strict you were with your notes and other school stuff. Out of the corner of your eyes you could see Billy smirk. Smug son of a bitch, you knew he was gonna use that argument to get you too help him and you knew it will work.
After your final class was over you walked out of the school and into the parking lot, at this point you just wanted to go home, first days at school were almost always the worst, and today it seems like its the special kind of worst.
That idiotic jerk Tommy was yelling at Eddie probably for some wildly absurd thing, as you got closer you could actually make out what the idiot was saying, you should have expected it honestly. It was again about how 'demonic' dungeons and dragons was.
"Tommy I swear to whatever is playing dolls with this universe I'll never help you in spanish again if you don't let the poor guy go until he graduates"
He tried to protest you but a single look from you was enough to shut him up. You grabbed Eddie by his hand and stormed off to your car. You could feel him try to catch up to your walking pace.
"Hey you know you can slow down a bit right? your car won't run away!" he said as you continued with your fact pace. in less than a minute you reached your car.
You look him straight in the eyes, you could feel your face become warm "Do you need to be some where today?" He scratched his head in confusion "No? Why are you asking?" and then it clicked for him, his face suddenly became red, his whole body language changing. "Well why didn't you say so babe?"
He said as he got into the passenger seat, you groaned in annoyance as you got into the drivers seat, turned on the car and finally left the damn school parking lot. The road through the forest was nice, no cars in sight, no worries.
Suddenly you could feel a hand on your upper thigh, slowly going more inwards but still waiting "Color?" He asked "Green" You answered. Eddie smirked as he started to palm your sex through the fabric.
All you could do is focus on the road in front of you as best as you could, sometime you wanted to pull over and finish everything then and there but you knew he wont be all that pleased with that, you both preferred the privacy of a bedroom.
You tried your best to not let out a sound but from time to time something escaped from your mouth. Maybe you couldn't see him but you knew damn well he was enjoying himself while teasing you like this.
The drive to your place was finally over, as you parked your car the two of you quickly got out and walked over to the front doors. You didn't really worry about someone seeing you, your butlers and maids were having afternoon tea right now.
The two of you quickly walked up the grand staircase and got to your bedroom, locking the doors after yourself.
You didn't know how much time passed by now, a good while surely passed as you realized how close the sun was to the line of the horizon. You slowly got up from the bed and out of your jacket pocket pulled out a packet of cigarettes.
Your body was not surprisingly aching from the previous activities, your legs slightly shaking and your ankles and wrists sore from the rope he used.
Opening the balcony doors you put an extra pillow on your chair and sat on it, soon Eddie joined you. After he took a cigarette from you the two of you enjoyed the sunset in silence, sharing a few words here and there.
After the sun went fully down and the blue hour started you got back in and put a few hundred bucks in an envelope, you weren't paying attention of how many you put in nor did you really care. When you tried to hand it to him he quickly tried to reject it like he always does.
But after some time you got him to take it, like you always do. He started to dress himself with the clothes that were messily thrown on the floor as you plopped yourself on the freshly made bed, you knew exactly who re made it after completely wrecking you.
"If you need a drive home ask Jeremy, and please be safe" you said as he walked up to your bed and placed one final kiss on your lips and walked out off your bedroom, softly closing it after himself, you quickly fell asleep after that.
School was hell like always, the first two months were finally over and November was starting which only could mean one thing, preparations for the pre-Christmas holidays exams. This was one of the worst times of the year for you, constant begging for help and tutoring when it was obviously too late.
The semi rich kids offering to pay you, not knowing that u truly don't need the money, the popular kids promising that they'll get you into their circle, the basketball players promising you a shoutout on their next big game, it was all so annoying.
You spent so many of your lunches in one of the bathroom stalls, hoping that no one would find you here and yet they did so now you started to hide under one of the less used stairs with Eddie by your side and yet you were found again.
You almost screamed as a somewhat familiar face entered your field of view. It was Billy, he said hi to you and Eddie and sat down next to you like nothing happened. This wasn't a surprise for you, the three of you actually became friends but mostly only on the school grounds.
The three off you only went out to get food twice but you could see that he was slowly putting down the 'bad boy' mask when he was in your company, but you knew why he was here and before he could ask you something you already had an answer prepared for him.
"No I will not tutor you I have a shit tone of things too do already without counting the sheer number of people who asked for tutoring, you had your time to learn now suffer the consequences"
"I just need help with algebra and precalculus its nothing major I promise! And I can pay you." he said, if you didn't know better you would see the little smile on his face as innocent but of course you knew better. Eddie was holding back a laugh behind you.
"For the last time I don't need the money and if those things are the 'only' thing you don't know that also means that you don't know at least the last three to five lessons! It'll take me at the least 4 full hours to explain it all"
You swung your hands wildly for just a moment to emphasize how stressed out and mad you are but out of the corner of your eyes you noticed how Billy flinched, and it wasn't a small flinch at that.
You decided to not comment on it, making it seem like you didn't see it. This intrigued you, you wondered what would cause this behavior, you decided to push your luck.
After letting out a sigh you gave in "Fine, but it can't be at my place. is yours ok, today after school?" You watched as his whole body became a tense. "Ah umm are you sure we can't go to a park somewhere? I just need to drop off my sister and I'm free from then"
Eddie raised an eyebrow "It is pouring outside?" His eyes darted back an forth as he broke the eye contact, he probably forgot about it. "Ooh yeah right! I guess it's my place then..." Billy sounded a little bit like a kicked puppy right now and tried his best to play it off like nothing was wrong.
You tried not to feel bad, if your concerns were really true you could help him and his sister. it will surely be a giant breach of privacy but he might understand later on. "Alright, I'll follow you with my car to your place"
After that you handed him 10 bucks "Could you go get me some snacks from the vending machine, you can also get something for yourself" He took the money and nodded, the moment he was gone you quickly pulled out your walkie talkie from your bag.
"Kimberly are you there?? over" You hoped she would respond quickly like she always does "Right here miss/mister/mx (L/n), over" You let exhaled in relief "Could you please cancel the meetings I have on 20th and move the todays ones on that date? Over"
"Of course, do you want me to pass on some excuse for you? over" You thought for a moment before answering "No need, just tell them about the change of plans, over and out" you said as you quickly put the walkie talkie back in your bag.
Eddie looked at you with a vey confused look on his face "Isn't that the very very veeeeeryy important meeting you've been stressing over for the last month or so??"
You sighed and nodded and Eddie squealed in excitement "Someone has a cruuuush!!" Your face became flaming hot as he said that "You have a crush on him too!!" You said defensively, maybe a bit to loudly too. He didn't deny your accusation and just laughed.
Not even three minutes later Billy was back with the snacks, after he sat next to you he handed you back the change and the three off you talked and enjoyed the snack until the end of the lunch break.
The bell of the final class finally hit as everybody got up to go home, you and Billy walked out together, luckily your cars were parked right next to each other today. "Will Max be late today again?"
He groaned at the thought, he truly hated when she was late, but luckily she wasn't today. In the distance you could see the little girl on her skateboard. She quickly picked up her skate board and put it in the trunk of the car.
She smiled as she said hi to you, and of course you smiled back and returned the gesture. Once Billy's parents made him take her with him when he was going out with you and since then you two became friends.
When the two of you finally drove off you followed his car all the way to his house, you tried your best not too groan at the thought of having to park on the street, a whole street down none the less, like he did but you were given no other choice. And of course you had to walk all the way back again.
The house was quiet and nice, quite minimalistic with decorations but still nice, and yet, there was no warmth in this house, not physically of course, their heating worked just fine.
There was no family like warmth in the house, hell your own home had more warmth and your parents were dead and you don't have any blood relatives that you know off. You were raised by your butlers and maids, drivers, tutors and many more, and yet, you have a house that is a home, this is no home.
Billy showed you his room, it wasn't too small nor too big, there was workout gear in the corner alongside large loudspeakers, a twin sized bed, a nightstand, a closet, rock band posters and more stuff here and there. nothing short of what you would expect from him.
You could see some damage was done to the door and to the wall, hell there was evidence of damage from different kinds of impacts all throughout the house, you wondered if all the 'fights' he got himself into were actually abuse.
He closed the door behind you as you plopped down on his bed as you pulled out your textbooks and notebooks, he brought a chair closer to the bed and sat on in. You started to explain the first lesson, it wasn't anything complicated for you, the same couldn't be said for Billy.
It took you two full hours to explain the first three lessons, he was finally catching on as you started to explain the fourth, sometimes he looked bored and sometimes he looked like he was actually paying attention but you were glad he was at the very least trying to understand.
Soon he started to take clothes out of his closet "Sorry I have a date lined up soon so I have to get ready. You can watch if you want" He smirked at you as he started to take off his shirt and unbuckle his belt.
You quickly turned around, feeling your face become extremely warm. Did you want to watch? Debatable. Did it feel like a giant breach of privacy even though he gave you verbal and clear permission? Definitely.
Lets be real if you are masc presenting he would call you a slur but its pride month so I'm making him a bit out of character
The ten minutes it took him too change were completely and awkwardly silent , at least they were for you, he probably didn't care. "Alright I'm done" You finally turned back around.
Your face became even warmer now, he definitely didn't take up the number one spot of the most handsome man you've ever seen. The tight jeans made his ass look so much better, his shirt showed just enough of his chest and that earing pulled everything together perfectly.
"You look..great" He snickered at the sight of you being so embarrassed. He suddenly stopped in his tracks, the room becoming dead silent as you became more confused by every passing second.
He quickly grabbed you by your arm and dragged you over to the side of the door "Stay here" He quietly whispered as she gently pushed against the wall. Suddenly there was a knock on the door. He took in a deep breath before opening it.
"What's wrong?" He was clearly annoyed, someone answered, probably his father. The moment they mentioned that Maxine wasn't in her room your anxiety got worse, you hoped she was ok. Billy claimed she probably went to the arcade or somewhere but that she was probably fine.
In the reflection of the mirror you could see his father move closer to him, if you could only warn him. "You were supposed to watch her" A thirteen year old? At thirteen you were signing important documents and held meetings by yourself, she was probably fine alone.
Billy gave him a good excuse, the were in fact more than three hours late. The more you listened to his fathers voice the more you wanted him to shut up. After some more arguing Billy turned of the music following it by saying that she isn't his sister.
Suddenly there was a loud bang, you almost jumped out of your own skin. There was another sound, a punch, out of the sound of your own heartbeat in your ears you could barely make out what they were saying, but you could hear him force Billy to apologize.
"Neil, really its okay-" Neil, you will remember that name for later "No, it's not okay, nothing about his behavior is okay." Hypocrite "But he's gonna make up for it, he's gonna call whatever whore he is seeing tonight" The definitely earned him another punch from you "And cancel their date"
For a moment you tuned out what they were saying and looked around yourself, there was nothing near you that you could use as a weapon, you looked in front of you, your backpack, closed, filled with heavy textbooks.
It could be useful, a good hit would surely knock him out or at least stunt him which would give you time for you and Billy to run. In that moment you realized how bad of an idea that was, for now it would solve some problems but not long-term, he could easily say you kidnaped him and Max and make the police forcefully take them away, no matter how much you wanted to you couldn't play hero in this situation.
"Isn't that right?!" The words snapped you out of your thoughts, there was some muttering you couldn't hear after that "Yes, sir" you could hear in his voice that he is about to crack "Find Max" the fuckhead said and finally left, after the door clicked closed did you finally got up.
He snapped his hand to the side and cupped his face, you could hear the quiet sobs he was trying to keep in. You slowly approached him, you made sure he knew you were in front of him before putting your hands on his forearms.
You slowly pulled them away from his face, giving him a chance too decline the gesture, the look he gave you broke your heart, he looked like a lost child. You wrapped your arms around his neck, letting him bury his face into your neck, softly crying into your shirt.
After a few minutes he pulled away, letting you go. You quickly got one of his bags and started to fill it with clothes, without shame you put in some boxers and socks alongside a few shirts and pants. After the bag was full you grabbed a two or three of his jackets in your hands.
"What the hell are you doing?" he was obviously confused "What does it look like, I'm packing your stuff, should be enough for a few days. Until he fully cools off I don't want you here, it's obviously not safe" You pulled out a piece of paper out of your pocket and gave it to him.
"On it is my address and a code, you'll need it to get in. As soon as you get max home go there, don't get back in here, I don't want to know what he will do to you. Do you want me to get Max's stuff as well? Is she safe here??"
Your worry warmed his heart "He won't hit her, she'll be fine" He said as he opened one of the windows. Before jumping out you hugged him one last time "Don't do anything rash please" you said as you let him go and jumped out, speed walking to your car never felt more stressful.
As you were driving home you stepped by Eddie's place. You knocked on his window and he quickly answered, you were right about him almost never sleeping. He quickly got out and got into your car and you drove off.
He could see that something bad happened, he decide that he would wait for you to say something. For the entire ride the two of you were quiet, while you were getting to your bedroom you were quiet and for the next hour and a half you were quiet as you sat on your bed.
After a while you started to talk about everything, about how you noticed signs, how you agreed to tutor him, how Billy's father treated his own son, how irresponsible the fucker was and then blamed Billy for his consequences, how you wanted to be a hero but couldn't.
"I'll hire some private investigators and then ask Benny to take guardianship over them, and then ill pay whatever judge to keep that twitchy little man behind the worst pair of bars America-no, the world has. I'll re open the god damn Alcatraz if I have to Eddie!"
You spewed pure venom as you paced around your room, cigarette in hand, already planning the man's painful execution "You can't just throw money at a problem you know? It may just make the things worse" You knew he was right, you hated that he was right, but he was also a little bit wrong.
"At this one I can! And I will gladly do so, that disgusting pig will be behind bars in no time! Hell in two calls or less I can order this man's death like a pizza! God I should have made my presence clear maybe then this shit wouldn't happen"
Eddie grabbed you by your shoulders and almost shook them as he looked you in the eyes "(Y/n) you are NOT above the law! Just because you can doesn't mean that you should. What if he wouldn't recognize you, not everyone knows how important you are"
He was firm with his words, he was worried you might actually order the man's death like a simple pizza just because you could which could throw you into legal trouble. You looked down in defeat, trying to make sense of what he just said.
Eddie pulled you into a hug, lightly rocking you back and forth "I know you want to help, I do to, but bribing someone may not be good for Billy or Max, have you thought that maybe they don't want him dead, behind bars sure, but dead?"
You didn't answer his question, the only thing you could do was sob and accept that by the end of the day you were just a mortal human being like he was, like Billy was, like Neil. like everyone. He gently rubbed your back as you cried.
After what felt like an eternity he pulled away and took the cigarette from your hand and extinguished it. He took your hand into his and slowly guided you to your bed, before you laid down you took one of Billy's leather jackets.
Your bed was a large Alaskan king sized bed and yet you tucked yourself to the side closest to the wall. His jacket smelled of cigarettes, cologne and his musk, it was different from Eddies but equally as comforting.
Eddie laid down besides you, letting you cuddle up to his side, nose still buried In Billy's leather jacket, Eddie could smell it too, he liked the way he smelled, he was always well groomed, used deodorant and cologne, unlike a typical highschool boy.
He decided to stay up in case Billy showed up, you did mention that you gave him the code and the address to him. Eddie hoped he was okay.
Billy opened his eyes as he tried to understand where he was, he was still on the floor, he could barely remember what happened, he found a note besides him 'I got home myself, I'm fine -Max'. He looked at the clock next to him, it hit 1AM just a few minutes ago.
He stumbled as he got up, still clearly under the influence of whatever the hell was in that syringe. He felt his pockets for his key and quickly got them. Walking felt like an entire workout, and driving was even worse.
If it was normal daytime he would surely have a car crash by now, he could barely drive straight. It took him a full half an hour to drive to his house. Suddenly he remembered your words 'don't get back in here'. He should have probably listened but he needed to know if Max was home.
He noticed that the lights in the house were on, he almost prayed for his own safety in that moment. When he stumbled into the house he could see Neil on the couch, obviously waiting for him.
Before he could say anything Billy asked him "Is Max home?" Neil said that she was but that wasn't the point now. Billy nodded and turned to walk out the door but before he could Neil stopped him by roughly grabbing him by his neck and throwing him on the floor.
Billy didn't know how many times he has been kicked and punched. it was a lot, more than usual, nose and lips bloody, traces of blood on the floor. He could barely breathe by now, his legs and arms were numb from the pain.
He could feel his hands on his neck again. Neil dragged him to the porch "Now ill give you a week to do whatever the hell you want and when you get home you will be the nice big brother to Max and you'll take your responsibilities more seriously okay?"
Billy could just nod as Neil kicked him for one final time before he got back in the house, locking the door behind him. Billy laid on the porch before attempting to get up, before he could get on his knees he fell down again, groaning in pain.
It took him three or four tries before he finally got to his feet, he slowly dragged himself over too his car. Everything was extremely fuzzy and his head was spinning, he felt like he could vomit any second.
After he started the car it took him three too four minutes too get his act together and drive off, he didn't know if he should speed off to get to the address sooner or should he take it slow so that he doesn't die on the way there, he decided that the second option would be better.
It took Billy a full half an hour to get to the address when it would normally take maybe eight to ten minutes. At first he couldn't believe that he was at the right address but the sign told him otherwise. before he could enter some guards stood before him.
"Code?" They didn't aske why the hell was he here in the middle off the night or why was he beaten to a pulp. He gave them the paper as the guards looked at each other. The guard waved to the one who was behind the gate.
All of a sudden the large gates opened and the guards motioned him to drive and so he did. There was a parking lot on the right side of what looked like a giant mansion he parked his car near yours. Getting to the front door was a pain in the ass, he was shocked when the guards just let him in.
The inside of the mansion looked larger than the outside, he couldn't believe that this was your house. He almost jumped out of his skin when he heard a voice behind him "You're here for miss/mister/mx (L/n) correct?" Billy nodded in confusion "My name is Benny Adams, I'm one of the butlers who work here, do you want me to show you where miss/mister/mx (L/n)'s room is or will directions be enough?"
After a moment of thinking he answered "Directions...please" The man nodded and started to explain where your bedroom was, third floor, hallway on the right, second door. It was easy enough to remember, climbing those stairs sure as hell wasn't.
He was finally at your door, he knocked lightly, not expecting you to be awake, he was surprised when Eddie opened the door for him. Eddie looked at him in shock as he quickly pulled him in. After he told him to sit down on a chair he quickly went to the bathroom.
A moment later he returned with the first aid kit and a clean towel. With the towel he gently cleaned off any cuts on his arms and face, making sure to not re open any of them, after that he used some alcohol to make sure everything was completely clean.
He was surprised when he saw how calm Billy was, he just let him take care of him. Eddie started to talk softly about something, Billy didn't really listen, he wasn't sure if he even could. Eddie looked nice like this, soft, caring, a little bit worried, he made Billy think thoughts he thought he never would.
He knew he was still very much under the drug's effect, but he just couldn't contain the feelings inside of him. He leaned in and put his head on Eddie's shoulder, almost hugging him "I like you... but I also like them.. I'm confused"
Eddie's face became red at his words, while he did feel the same now he was sure that Billy was under the influence of something, a drug probably. He placed one pf his hands on his head, combing Billy's curly hair with his fingers.
"Did you take something, some drug?" Billy shook his head but then gasped "Yeah! Max drugged me with....something? I don't know, it was in a syringe. It hurt like hell" Eddie was confused "The syringe or the effect of what was in it??"
Billy giggled "The poke, I swear like haaalff of it was in my neck" Eddie panicked at that and quickly but gently lifter his head to reveal his neck, he quickly found the entrance point and gently massaged around it, trying to feel if maybe the tip of the syringe snapped somewhere in him.
Billy definitely misunderstood what was Eddie trying to do, he completely leaned into his touch, if he could he would probably be purring right now. "look who's getting handsy" Billy said as he wrapped his arms around Eddie's waist, pulling him closer.
After a minute Eddie was sure there was nothing in his neck, he sighed in relief as he looked at the face of the man in front of him. There was an unsure look his eyes, like he wanted to do something but wasn't sure if he should.
In his mind Eddie tried to understand what drug did Billy take, until a few minutes ago he was probably also high on adrenalin, that's why he was waaay more relaxed now. it was probably some party or sleeping drug, but how did Max out of all the people managed to do this to him?
Eddie snapped out of his thoughts as he could feel someone poke him on his temple. "You think waaaay tooo much. But (Y/n) takes the number one spot in that, they also think too much, nerds" Billy giggled as Eddie stared at him in confusion, trying his best not to laugh at his words.
"Alright big guy lets get you to bed" Eddie said as he got up and walked to the bed, halfway there he realized that Billy was still on the chair, he gave him a confused look as he mumbled "I don't think I can stand"
He let out a sigh as he walked back to him, he kneeled in front of him with his back faced towards him. Billy somehow understood what he was trying to do. he wrapped his arms around his neck as Eddie placed his arms around his thighs.
Billy 'weeee'-ed like a little child, quietly as Eddie picked him up, god he was heavy which wasn't a surprise, he was a hunk of pure muscle after all. After he placed him down on the bed, before he could go to his side of the bed Billy suddenly grabbed him by his forearm.
He pulled him towards himself, holding him close, Eddie could see what was Billy trying to do. Eddie looked at him in the eyes, god he will regret this. Billy slowly leaned in, closing the space between them, pressing their lips together.
To Eddie it felt exactly like how it felt kissing you, magical and breathtaking. Eddie deepened the kiss, pulling Billy impossibly closer to him, stealing his warmth. He pulled away as Billy's head dropped down to the base of his neck.
He let him place a few hickeys here and there before he pulled him away "You're clearly under the influence of something, I don't want to do anything to you that you might regret later" Billy whined but nodded as he got under the covers.
Eddie snuggled up besides you again, he laid on his back as he watched Billy on his side of the bed. Soon he groaned in annoyance and crawled over to the two of them and snuggled into Eddie's side and then covered all three with a blanket. It took almost no time for the two of them to fall asleep like this.
You could feel the sun hit your face before you even opened your eyes, Billy's jacket was still in your hand and Eddie was still by your side. You slowly opened your eyes and looked at the clock on your desk, it read 08:22
You slowly sat up on your bed and yawned. It was finally Saturday, you could feel and arm wrap around your waist, pulling you back to bed "Eddie I have a meeting at 10:30" you mumbled into his neck. He groaned as he let you go "Good morning as well"
You slowly got out the bed and walked into your closet, you picked out some more professional clothes for the meeting. After placing the clothes on your table you walked out on the balcony, it would be freezing if it weren't for the greenhouse instalment you hire someone to put before every winter.
Skipping the chairs you walked over to the pomegranate tree that still had some ripe fruit. Sorry if you hate or are allergic to pomegranate. After picking five of them you walked back into your room, you placed them on the tray in the dumbwaiter.
You took a paper from the notepad and wrote what you wanted to eat and drink "Hey Eddie what do you wanna eat this morning" a moment later someone responded "Waffles and hot chocolate" that wasn't Eddie.
Shocked, you quickly whipped your head in the direction of the voice. On your bed didn't just lay Eddie but also Billy, cuddled up to his side. "Billy!!" you exclaimed in joy as you jumped on the bed to hug him. "Thank god you're safe! When did you get here?"
He could barely answer your question, his head throbbing from the drug and the hits his father gave him. Soon you realized there were more bruises on him then from the last time you saw him. "He hit you more didn't he"
Billy didn't want to look you in the eyes, he could only nod "I had to check if Max was okay, ill explain everything later" He said as you looked at Eddie "Ill have the same as him" you smiled as you placed a kiss on each of their foreheads before returning to the paper.
Alongside everything you ordered a few bags of ice wrapped in kitchen towels, after putting the note down on the tray you closed the door and pressed a button so that everything can be sent in the downstairs kitchen.
You walked over to the telephone in your room and dialed a number, it took him longer than usual to respond, given it's so early in the morning. "Uh yes hello?" Ah, finally "Good morning doctor Turner. It's miss/mister/mx (L/N). I sincerely apologize for calling you this early but I will need an appointment, not for me, sometime today. What's the earliest you could be here?"
After a few moments and a few sounds off pages ruffling and the doctors grumbling you finally got an answer "The earliest I can be here is 10AM sharp, will that work with you?" You were very satisfied with his answer "Yes that would be excellent, thank you for your time on such a short notice, farewell" You said as you broke the call.
You sighed tiredly as you looked at your schedule for today. meeting 10:30 to 12:00 and then another from 15:00 till 17:00 and then you needed to work on your speech for an another event next week. You groaned as you dropped down on your bed again, whishing you could stay here forever.
After a few minutes you could hear the dumbwaiter bell ring, the food was here. "Get up guys food's here." Both of them groaned and slowly rose from the bead like some zombies. You took your food and drink with the large bowl of pomegranate seeds and placed it on the table outside.
The three of you ate in silence, enjoying the morning rays of sunshine that reflected off the horizon, the sky still having an orange pink like gradient.
After a while the three of you finished your food and sat in silence, still tying to wake up. Eddie was the first to break the silence "Do you remember that happened last night?" Billy looked in the distance, obviously deep in thought, then his eyes widen and his face became bright red.
Billy looked down, trying to hide his bright red face "Yeah..." He mumbled, for a split second he looked at Eddie's neck, the hickeys were definitely still there. Eddie was the first to admit that he liked both of you romantically, followed by the two of you admitting the same.
It took a lot of talking, the three of you discussed about the bad and good thing of a relationship like this, you discussed what you considered cheating and what not, setting boundaries, what you wanted to do with your lives and other stuff, in the end you concluded that this relationship, if kept secret, would be great.
While talking you and Eddie held the bags of ice on Billy's bruises, now that the bruises fully formed he looked worse than yesterday. At first he watched your moves like a hawk, obviously not trusting you, but soon he relaxed, not fully but it was a step to a better path.
"Never thought i would get myself into some hippie shit like this" Billy said as the two of you laughed at his joke, you looked at your watch as you almost screamed, 9:49 "Billy go get some clothes and wait for doctor Turner downstairs! I need to rush" you excused yourself as you run to the bathroom.
After taking care of some things you could hear them leave through the door "Ill be with Billy! Good luck with that meeting" Eddie loudly said and shut the door behind them, you sighed with a smile on your face as you continued to get ready.
The two of them got downstairs a minute before ten and sure enough the doctor walked in through the front door the second the clock turned to 10. Mister Adams showed them where the doctor will examine Billy.
It was obvious he had trouble walking, limping, almost hopping on his good leg. Eddie offered him help but at first he refused, almost fell down, twice, and then finally accepted defeat and let Eddie help him.
After they finally got to the room the doctor started to examine him. They did the usual stuff, taking blood samples, checking his eye movement, reflexes, sensory functions, coordination. Everything was going fine until he stared to check his leg.
Luckily he was done rather quickly as it was clear that it was beaten pretty badly, after the doctor was done he sat back into his chair and looked at his notes for a moment or two "Well the good news is that per my estimate there shouldn't be any long-term to the brain or your knee but i will order a CT and MRI scan for your head and an X-ray for the knee."
Both Billy and Eddie sighed in relief "But if you play any sports, forget about it for the next month and a half, your knee hasn't crossed the 'will never be the same' line but it will if you don't stay in bed for said time period."
Great, just great, Billy could feel like half of his world crash down. There are not one but two important big games coming up that he will have to skip. Eddie tried his best too comfort the now angry man as the man packed his stuff and left rather quickly.
After a few minutes they got back to your room, Billy decided to take a nap while Eddie sat on the balcony, as soon as he sat down the phone rang. Annoyed, Eddie answered the phone "Hiiii, this is Kimberly, their highest majesties' personal secretary, they wanted me to let you know that they wont be having lunch with you because they needed to switch up something in their schedule, Toodeloooo"
Eddie was left in confusion as the woman on the other end broke the call, Billy let out a hum, wordlessly asking him what's going on "They wont be having lunch with us, schedule switch up or something" He said as he laid down on the bed next to Billy and feel asleep next to him.
It was somewhere around 1PM when the two of them woke up, after some time they decided to order themselves lunch in the same way you did. After eating they went back to bed but neither could fall asleep again.
Eddie took Billy's hand into his, there palms resting on his chest as he traced his knuckles with his thumb. "Do you want us to help?" Billy looked at him in confusion "You don't need to stay with them Billy, I know it feels like you can't leave, but you can"
Billy looked at the ceiling, he didn't say a word "If you only heard what (Y/n) had to say about your dad! You would be rolling on the floor, out of all the things they called him a twitchy little man and a few other choice names"
He snorted at that, twitchy little man, it didn't fit his father at all, he will remember it though. He looked Eddie in the eyes, as if he's waiting for him to ask him something. He sighed as he squeezed his hand.
"Do you think you're ready to talk about what's happening at home?" His questions wasn't out of malice but out of simple curiosity. Billy looked back at the ceiling then after a minute or two of thinking he shook his head.
Eddie nodded and smiled "That's alright, when you feel like talking just know that both of us are here for you" he said as he brought Billy's palm to his face and placed a kiss on his fingers then at the base of his palm.
His hands smelled of cologne and cigarettes, nothing out of the ordinary. Billy for the first time in forever fully let his guard down. It almost felt like a trap, like its all a ploy just for you and Eddie to make fun off him. He wanted to back away, to just leave, to never see either of them again.
What will his father say when he fids out about his new relationship? He knew all hell would break loose. Maybe he should just break up with both of you and go back home to play the nice older brother like his father wanted. He probably would if he could.
Maybe his father would finally stop hitting him. He did it because he was nothing but a rebellious teenager and he needed to beat some sense into him. It was all his fault.
He flinched as a hand cupped his face, scaring the living shit out of him. "Are you ok dude??" Eddie asked as Billy finally snapped out of his thoughts. "I know you don't want to talk about it but whatever is happening to you is not your fault, normal parents don't hit and kick out their children when they are mad at them."
Billy let out a sob, one after another. He wondered how did Eddie know what to say at that exact moment, like he had read his mind. His shoulders shook with his sobs as he curled into himself, hiding his face out of shame.
Eddie sighed as he cautiously put his hand on the man's shoulder, letting him decide if he wanted his touch. Billy violently pulled away, scared of the intention behind Eddie's touch. He stared at him cautiously as he tried his best to stop crying.
He reached his hand out again, this time so that Billy can see it. First the hand cupped his face an with its thumb brushed his tears away. Slowly his hand moved on pass his jaw. Billy could feel his hand play with his curls at first.
This was it, the moment he pulls his hair like his father often does, this is the moment he yells at him for being a crybaby, for being a softy, for ever being so naive and thinking anyone would ever love him and offer him help.
But it never happens, Eddie never does anything like that. He just continued to play with his hair, softly scratching his scalp and combing his hair with his fingers. There was no malice in the nature of his actions, only the need to comfort him.
It shook Billy's worldview a little bit, the last time someone touched his hair like this was his mother. The night before she left him, it all felt a little bit too familiar.
He slowly opened up his arms and tried too say something but his own sobs wouldn't let him and yet Eddie understood him perfectly. He pulled him closer too his chest and let him cry out his pain and sorrow, and soon he started to cry too.
Thank god the second meeting was over way before it was supposed to, a whole hour earlier none the less and since you finished the speech during lunch you were completely free until Monday hits. You almost skipped out of happiness back to your room.
You slowly opened your door not expecting to see both Billy and Eddie crying their eyes out. You quietly got out of your business clothes and slipped into your pajamas. You quietly approached them and when they both saw you their eyes suddenly got a specific shine of happiness in them.
You laid down behind Billy, spooning him from behind as his face was still buried in Eddie's chest. You softly kissed away each of their tears and dried their faces with your sleeves. After you were done you kissed both of them all over their faces. When you saw that both of them have finally stopped crying you turned off all the lights and made sure both were tucked in.
Billy could feel his heart swell with love and joy for the first time in forever. He would never admit it of course but he finally felt wanted somewhere, not for his looks or charm or popularity but for simply being himself, not for the typical bad boy stereotype Billy, but for one who needed help and comfort, for the one who was simply just a little bit lost.

❤️- Romantic Scene
Eddie grimaces; Chrissy had asked to talk to him and he thinks maybe she’s caught on he’s into guys and that she’s going to threaten to tell everyone. Instead she sits him down; hands shaking and says she likes girls, and it’s nothing he did but she doesn’t want to hurt him. Eddie just laughs and explains her own words back to her.
“So you and Cunningham broke up? Whole school is talking about it.” Billy looks up from where he’s tightening the screws on his deck.
“We weren’t ever really together?”
“Oh?” Billy looks hopeful and Eddie scowls.
“She’s not into guys Hargrove.” Eddie bristles; annoyed the crush he’s been nursing on Billy is still going unaware.
“OH I don’t care about her.” Billy smirks; Eddie looks back up from his campaign notes.
“You-” Eddie is cut off from how close Billy is; how the deck is finished; the swirling reds and black frame the guitar perfectly.
“Interested in you.” Billy doesn’t wait for Eddie to say anything just closing hte gap to kiss him.

“He’s gonna find out.” Billy says this casually. It’s not a warning nor a threat; to him, it is simply a fact. “You should just tell him. Rip the bandaid off, or whatever.” Billy swipes at his arm, tearing off an imaginary bandage to prove his point. He’s sitting on Eddie’s bed, back against the wall, shirt undone and a little crooked on his shoulders, toying absently with Eddie’s hair as Eddie lounges against him, his head in Billy’s lap, blunt pinched between his fingers.
Eddie breathes a plume of smoke at the ceiling, shakes his head, “Nope. No.” He holds up a stern finger, pokes it in Billy’s face. “No.”
Billy scowls, snatches the joint from Eddie’s hand, takes a puff. Earthy smoke spills from his lips as he teases, “What? You afraid of some thirteen year-old little punk?”
“He’s fifteen.” Eddie snaps at Billy’s hand, but Billy holds the joint out of his reach, takes another pull with his head titled towards the ceiling, breathes out a hazy mist. He makes a big show of it, smirking at Eddie’s frown, a soft chuckle escaping when Eddie huffs at him. He leans down, stamps a smoky kiss to Eddie’s lips, smirk turning to a soft smile as Eddie deepens in.
“I’m serious, though,” Billy says, finally relenting, passing the blunt back to Eddie. He presses his back against the cool wall, tilts his face down to Eddie, fingertips lightly tracing Eddie’s jaw, thumb smoothing over his lips. “We’re not exactly hiding anything here.” Eddie smokes. Billy blinks against the haze filling up the room. “Max knows,” he offers. “El knows. Will.” He ticks them off on his fingers. “Hell, even Sinclair knows. Both Sinclairs.” He thinks for a moment, adds, “Wheeler’s oblivious, but that’s his problem.”Eddie says nothing, just quietly passes the blunt. Billy accepts, and he raises it to his mouth he asks, “That’s ninety-eight percent of your rugrats. What’s the big deal?”
“First of all,” Eddie says, swiping the joint from Billy’s mouth. “Max and El are yours.”
“We can talk custody later,” Billy counters, not waiting for Eddie to finish his drag before he snatches the joint back from him, leaving Eddie with a shallow cough. He glowers up at Billy, but his features are too soft, too delicate in the low light of the bedroom, golden beams of late-afternoon sun slanted across his cheeks, he looks young, boyish, almost cartoonish — not threatening in the slightest. “Tell me what you’re so scared of.”
“I’m not scared.” Eddie pouts, only making him look younger. Billy nudges him, dangles the joint just out of reach. Still, Eddie lifts his hand for it, only to have Billy pull it away.
“Tell me.” Billy’s words are firm but his tone is low, almost gentle. Eddie sighs. He nestles closer to Billy, but does not speak, does not answer him. “You embarrassed of me or something?” It’s not accusation, but Eddie leaps to his own defense.
“No! No.” He speaks too quickly, too loudly. Eddie takes a breath, shakes his head, reaches one hand up to gently cup Billy’s cheek. “No,” he says, softer. “Never.”
Billy covers Eddie’s hand with his own, strong and warm, and he turns his face to kiss Eddie’s palm. “Tell me,” he says again, and Eddie sighs.
“I just…” His voice trails off. He sits up, disentangling himself from Billy, settles cross-legged on the bed to face him. Billy’s free hand, the one not playing keep-away with the joint, catches Eddie’s and Eddie can’t help it, the way their fingers lace together is second nature by now. “Dustin’s— he’s…protective. Like, how Red is with you. Only…he doesn’t have her…tact. Does that make sense?”
Billy scoffs. “Maxine just loves to threaten people. It’s, like, her thing.”
“She lectured me, Bills,” Eddie says plainly. “For an hour. And a good portion of that lecture focused very heavily on how she’d, and this is a direct quote, ‘castrate me with a wooden spoon’ if I ever did anything to hurt you.”
Billy considers this, shrugs. “She must trust you.” Eddie quirks a brow. Billy laughs. “I’ve heard worse from her. Trust me. If you got that lecture, it means she likes you.”
“My point is,” Eddie sighs, grateful when Billy offers the blunt. He takes a pull, pauses to savor it. “My point is,” he repeats, “that Max wants to protect you. And Dustin wants to protect me.”
“What do you think he’s gonna do to me, huh?” Billy’s tone is light, teasing. He nudges Eddie and Eddie only shakes his head, takes another drag. “He gonna go all mad scientist? Poison me?”
“He’s very buddy-buddy with the science teachers,” Eddie muses. Then he shakes his head, refocuses. “I’m just— I don’t know. I want you guys to get along? And I don’t want him to be mean to you. Or about you. Or me. I don’t want him to try and break us up. He’s always playing matchmaker, you know? He gets his sights on some chick and tries to shove us together. He doesn’t…he doesn’t know that…”
“Eds,” Billy says, and Eddie’s eyes snap to his. Billy rests a hand on Eddie’s shoulder, squeezes gently. “Babe,” Billy says gently. “Do you really think that Dustin Henderson, the president of the Eddie Munson fan club, is going to turn his back on you because you’re gay?” Eddie sheepishly looks down, tugging at a loose thread on his comforter. He shrugs, peers shyly back up at Billy. “Babe, that kid worships you. If he had his way he’d build fucking statutes in your goddamn honor. He’s rename this town Munsonville or some shit. He’s about two seconds away from forming a cult around you.”
When Eddie averts his gaze, Billy slides closer, one hand soft and gentle at the back of Eddie’s neck. He tugs Eddie closer to him, kisses his forehead. They part, and Eddie holds Billy’s gaze. There is a beat silence, and then two.
“I thought you were the president of the Eddie Munson fan club.”
This earns Eddie a laugh, and Billy playfully shoves at him, tells him to, “Shut the fuck up.” Eddie laughs, too, shakes his head.
“I hear you, though,” he says, accepting the joint when Billy offers it. It’s nearly burnt down, the heat smarting against his calloused fingertips. He sighs as he smokes, then quietly says, “I still don’t want him to be mean to you. He can be a real dick when he wants to be.”
“Baby,” Billy says seriously. “I think I can take him.”
“I know,” Eddie assures. “I know. I just— I just don’t want you to have to, y’know? I don’t want him to try to fuck with you— to fuck with us.”
“He can’t,” Billy promises. When Eddie doesn’t respond, Billy puts his fingers to Eddie’s chin, raises Eddie’s gaze. “He can’t,” Billy repeats. “I promise I’ll sit through as many stupid lectures as he wants to dish out. And I promise I’ll go easy if I have to put him in his place.” Eddie nods along. “Hell, Maxine likes us together. Henderson gives you trouble, we can sic her on ‘im.” Billy tucks Eddie’s hair behind his ear, his thumb lingering on Eddie’s cheek. “You don’t have to tell him now,” Billy says. “Do it when you’re ready. And I’ll take whatever the kid dishes out. Okay?”
Eddie leans forward, resting his forehead against Billy’s. He closes his eyes, breathes in the earthy smell of the weed, the musky scent of Billy’s cologne, the tinge of salty sweat in the warm room. He sighs. He nods. “Okay.”

Okay but if Eddie had survived, Steve and him would have the same scars on their sides <3 When they cuddle they like to feel over the ridges and just be glad that they’re alive and together 💔
(And if you’re a Steve/Billy/Eddie fan, the three of them making fun of each other’s fucked up sides, competitive over who’s healed up more gnarly looking, kissing each other’s scars during sex ❤️ Billy has the worst of it but Eddie assures him his pretty face makes up for it, which earns a good pillow smothering from Billy as Steve tries to break it up, pulling Billy off Eddie only for the two rockstars to gang up on Stevie ❤️)
