Chapter Three: The Healer

Surprise! It’s done early so here it is!

Summary: Your dull life gets flipped upside down when a stranger crash lands on your farm. When the mystery of what he is unravels, he takes you and your heart for a ride that is out of this world.

Warnings: Reader is injured (a burn), food/eating, mentions of a sex toy (vibrator), Jason Carver. 18+ only

Wordcount: 3.1k

“I said,” he crooned with careful annunciation to each word, “hello, human, my name is Eddie.”

You stared at him open mouthed for a moment. He looked very proud of himself with a smirk on his face like he loved the fact that he shocked you. He crossed his arms, leaning against the dented metal of the ship.

“How?” Is all you croaked out.

“My translator,” he said with a nod, pointing to his mouth and ears.

“Oh.” You straightened up, unsure what to say now that he could understand you. You had so many questions and now that you were able to ask them they had left your brain.

“Thank you for rescuing me,” he said quickly with a nod, like he was in a hurry to remember to thank you.

“I didn’t rescue you.”

“Yes you did. You brought me to safety,” he explained, uncrossing his long arms and stepping towards you. You were immediately reminded of a similar scene in front of this broken metal the night before when you ran from him. That was rude but you weren’t going to admit it to his suddenly smug looking face. Give this man a translator and it gives him a whole new personality.

This time when he moved towards you, you didn’t back away from fear. You stood your ground, letting him come to you.

“Why are you here? Where are you from? What are you? Are you human?” You asked in rapid succession, needing the questions to be answered now before this conversation went even further.

Eddie paused his movement, tilting his head as he looked you up and down. He was examining you, just like you had been examining him. It made you squirm, skin heating as his dark eyes trailed over you. He was close enough now that if he wanted to he could reach out and grab you.

You didn’t know why that thought didn’t scare you as much as it should.

“I’m here because my ship was wrecked,” he said like it was obvious, gesturing to the destroyed hunk of metal behind him.

You nodded, gesturing for him to continue.

He took another small step towards you before speaking again. “I’m from the planet of Metallum.”

Another step. This time he was so close that your chest brushed up against his. He felt cool, even through your shirt and it made you shiver slightly. “And no. I am not human.”

“What are you then?” You asked dumbly, looking up at him.

He stared down at you with an unreadable expression. His dark eyes were a striking contrast against his pale skin. The bandage you had put on him last night still held in place on his head.

“I’m Eddie.” He said with a shrug. The translator might not be as perfect as you thought. You might have to reword that question again for him later to get a real answer.

“This is crazy. Aliens are not supposed to exist.”

“To me, you are the alien.”

You thought about that for a moment.

“Fair enough.” You shrugged.

Eddie smiled at this, eyes never leaving your face.

“So, what are you gonna do now?” You asked awkwardly, toeing the grass at your feet with the tip of your boot.

Eddie sighed, turning back to the ship. He scratched his head and scrunched his nose as he stared at the wreckage.

“I need to see what happened to my system to make it mess up and make me crash here, then I need to find a way to get my ship flyable enough to get far from here.”

“Far from here? Why?”

“Because Earth is forbidden to our planet. Our superiors have been in touch with yours but regular beings like me can’t be here. I can get in trouble with either my planet or yours.”

“Wait, you’re telling me that our government has been in touch with aliens and haven’t said a thing about it?”

“You didn’t know?”

“No! They keep saying aliens aren’t real!”

“They’ve been reaching out with my planet for years. They’re hostile though. That’s why I’m surprised you’re so nice to me. When I realized where I landed I expected to be dragged away immediately.”

You rubbed your forehead in frustration. You definitely weren’t nice to him last night so you decided to ignore his compliment.

“Wait, what do you think will happen if my government finds out you’re here?”

“The last few we have sent out here to meet with your people have never come back home. We can only assume they have been lost,” Eddie said with a sad look.

Great. Not only was he on a strange planet, but also on a planet where the government wanted to kill him or run tests on him in a secret government lab or both.

“Well, good news is that it doesn’t seem like anyone saw you crash except me and I’ll help you get home,” you announced with a clap of your hands, hoping you wouldn’t end up regretting this.

Eddie’s face lit up. “Really?”

You nodded. “We just need to keep you and this,” you waved your hand at the ship, “hidden for the time being. Good news is no one ever comes down here to the farm and I don’t like going out in public.”

“Thank you,” Eddie said as he went to reach for you.

You put a hand up. “We need to work on boundaries. You’re still kind of scary.”

“Me?” Eddie asked while pointing at himself in disbelief, “I’m scary to you?”

You nodded and then shrugged. “No offense. Your arms are kind of freakishly long, you bleed green blood, and your skin is kinda clammy and cold too and I don’t know how I feel about that. Now that I’m looking at you in the sunlight your skin kind of has a green tint to it too.”

Now that you really looked at him, he didn’t look as human as you thought. Maybe just enough to pass after a brief glance. His eyes were larger than the average persons, his skin was slightly green which was most likely from the green blood that coursed through his veins, and his arms and legs were longer than what they should be. Eddie truly wasn’t human.

Eddie put his hands up. “I promise I am harmless.”

You nodded with a sniffle and threw your thumb over your shoulder. “I’m gonna get started on the work for the day. If you need me just yell.”

“Why would I yell?”

“It’s a saying, Eddie,” you sighed as you turned away and walked back towards the barn.

A few hours later you went back to the field to find Eddie messing with the computer screen.

He had a tool of some sort between his teeth as he pried apart the panel under the screen. He was focused, brows furrowed as he messed with it.

He looked up and smiled at you as you got closer. You were still dirty and sweaty from working on the farm, getting the animals fed and cleaned up. You hoped Eddie wouldn’t notice.

“Are you hungry?” You asked when you finally reached the opening to the ship. You could see where what you assumed used to be the door was ripped off in the crash was now propped against the side. Eddie was lucky he didn’t get thrown out.

Eddie tilted his head as he thought for a second. Maybe waiting for his translator to catch up before setting the tool down and nodding quickly.

You led him back to the farm silently. Eddie stayed hot on your heels as you walked. You were surprised he let you get far enough to do your chores this morning without him following you around like a lost puppy like he had last night. Maybe the conversation you had this morning made him feel a little more comfortable to do things on his own.

You made Eddie sit at the table while you took a quick shower. When you got out he was still where you left him but he seemed very excited that you came back.

You opened the fridge, frowning at the lack of ingredients. You really needed to go shopping.

“I can make some eggs?” You questioned out loud,“Wait, what do you even eat?” You spun to him with the carton of eggs in hand. It was still early enough to classify this meal as breakfast and the plus side of having chickens was the continuous supply of eggs.

“I eat food,” he answered.

“I think you need a new translator because that was very much not helpful,” you grumbled as you started to make some cheesy scrambled eggs. If he didn’t like this then he would have to wait until you went to the store later. You’d have to find some clothes for him while you were there too. You could see the dried blood and dirt caked onto the strange material of his shirt and pants.

“So, I was thinking,” you said loudly over the sound of the sizzling pan, “I’m gonna leave you here alone today for a little bit while I head to the store and get you some things. I’m gonna grab you some clothes and some more food because I’m obviously not used to guests and what are you doing?” You asked when you found him standing right beside you holding an egg in his hand.

“It’s small,” was all he said as he stared intensely at the egg in his hand.

“Well, it’s an egg. Do they not have eggs on your planet?”

“We have something similar to this. They look different and we don’t cook them.”

“Why not?”

Eddie just shrugged in response, delicately setting the egg down as he watched you cook.

You reached over to grab the spatula near where Eddie stood because you were sure if you asked him to grab it for you he wouldn’t know what you were talking about. You weren’t paying attention to your other hand as you reached over and it landed on the side of the burning hot pan.

You gasped and jumped back, clutching your hand in pain. Burns were the worst, even the smallest felt so intense. You had only had your hand on it for a second, but that was enough to leave agonizing pain. Eddie moved in an instant, reaching for your hand to see what was wrong.

He was able to pull your hand away from your protection. He held your hand between his own as he stared down at the injury with furrowed brows, like he could mentally will the injury away. After a few seconds he seemed to remember something, head whipping to stare at the front door frantically.

“I’ll be back,” he called as he ran to the front door, way faster than you had seen anyone run before. It made you realize that if he wanted to catch you when you ran from him last night then he could’ve.

That thought wasn’t enough to distract you from the hot pain radiating through your hand. You winced as it throbbed, the skin already swelling. You really hoped Eddie hadn’t tried to run somewhere to get you help over a little burn. You’d never forgive yourself if he got caught because of you. You really should have tried to stop him before he made it out the door.

You didn’t have time to even attempt to go after him before he was rushing back through the door. The wooden screen door smacked the frame behind him as he entered the house once again. He was beside you in a heartbeat, one hand holding a metal device that looked like a price scanner used in the grocery store and the other reaching for you. You let him take your hand and he held it carefully between his cool ones.

He murmured something lowly that you couldn’t understand.

“What’s that?”

“It’s a healer.”

“Eddie, you have a healer? Why the hell didn’t you say anything? We could’ve fixed your head!” You exclaimed out of disbelief.

“I didn’t think about it until now,” he admitted as he held up the scanner over your injured palm.

“Wait!” You went to pull your hand away but he didn’t let go. He looked up at you with a raised brow, the gesture so human. “Does it hurt?”

“I will never hurt you,” he said sternly.

He said the words with such finality that you had no reason not to believe them. It sent a flutter to your chest.

“Good to know,” you croaked out, voice thick with a sudden emotion that you couldn’t name.

Eddie held the scanner back over your palm and pressed the button. A purple flash lit up the damaged flesh. You felt a tingle break through the skin and then it was over in a second. Eddie pulled the scanner away and set it on the counter, revealing your now healed hand.

You stared at it in awe, not a single mark left from where you had burnt your hand. It was like magic.

You stared up at Eddie in wide eyed awe.

“How?” Was all you could get out.

“It heals. You do not have one?”

You shook your head. “No. Nothing like that exists here.”

Eddie looked at you in surprise like he couldn’t fathom it. You didn't feel like explaining modern medicine to him, that would have to be saved for a different time.

“It doesn’t even hurt anymore. Thank you,” you whispered, running a finger over the perfect skin.

“I will never hurt you,” Eddie repeated his words from earlier, eyes focused on your face with intensity.

You shied away from his stare, reaching for the healer.

“Alright. Let’s fix your head.”

The wheels to the cart squeaked as you rounded the corner at the store. You had already stopped by a clothing store to grab Eddie some clothes. You couldn’t tell what he would like so you got him the basics and hygiene stuff.

You paused when you saw blonde hair in the produce department. You cursed under your breath, trying to maneuver the cart to turn around before he saw you.

But you’ve never been very lucky.

“Hey!” Jason called as he caught sight of you.

You took a deep breath and rolled your eyes before turning around to face him fully.

“Hey, Jason,” you replied, way less enthusiastic than his greeting.

You had never liked Jason. Not even in school. Not even when he tried asking you out three times before he ended up with Chrissy, who eventually dumped him right before graduation senior year.

Since then, he had tried to ask you out any chance he got. He was nice on paper but the way he treated people he viewed “less than” in school rubbed you the wrong way.

“That’s a lot of junk food,” he commented while looking down at the cart. He was right. You weren’t really sure what Eddie would like so you basically grabbed one of everything. You were gonna get some fruits and veggies too if Jason was blocking them.

“Yep,” you huffed out, hoping that if you kept it short he would just leave you alone.

“I mean that is a lot of food,” he whistled, “you got a visitor with you or something.

You froze. “No. Nope. Just me,” you said quickly with a nervous laugh.

Jason raised an eyebrow at you, staring you straight into your eyes like he was trying to decipher your soul. He could probably see every sin you’ve ever committed by just how deep he was staring.

His eyes flicked between yours for a second before he leaned away, a relaxed smile growing on his previously stern face. His change in demeanor scared you by the way he could just switch back and forth. It reminded you of something a serial killer would do.

“I’m just messing with you. Hey, maybe I can come up there and visit you sometime.”

“Sorry. That’s not a good idea. I’m really busy.”

You went to push the cart around him, hoping he would take a hint that the conversation was in fact over. He reached out, grabbing the handle of the cart with a tight grip so you couldn’t go any further.

He leaned in so close that you could smell the minty gum that he was chewing and it made you wrinkle your nose as his breath blew across your face.

“Maybe you could make a little time for me,” he whispered like it was a funny secret between two friends.

You jerked the cart out of his grip so hard that it tilted onto one wheel and slammed back down onto the ground. The elderly lady at the end of the aisle shot you a dirty look at the loud noise but you couldn’t bring yourself to care.

“I don’t think so,” you said through gritted teeth.

Jason backed up with a strange look before another perfectly white smile crossed his features. He put both hands up in the air as a show of innocence.

“Figured I’d ask. I’ll see you around sometime,” he said with a smile and a wink before disappearing down another aisle.

You let out the breath you had been holding when he left, letting your shoulders sag. You found yourself rushing to get what you needed so you could get back to Eddie.

You climbed up the steps and into the house with the shopping bags layered up and down your arms.

You dropped them with a huff on the kitchen table, knowing that you’d have to go back out to the truck for the rest of them.

“Eddie?” You called when you didn’t see him on the couch where you left him.

You had made him promise. You even taught him how to pinky swear (which he thought was hilarious) that he wouldn’t go anywhere or answer the door for anyone while you were gone.

But the empty house was the only thing greeting you. You knew he wasn’t working on the ship in the field. You had both covered it with a tarp before you left and when you drove in from shopping you saw it was still covered.

Maybe he was in the bathroom. Do aliens even pee?

You peeked to find the hallway bathroom empty. You were about to go searching outside when you heard a shuffle and low buzzing coming from your bedroom.

“Eddie?” You called again, approaching your cracked bedroom door.

You pushed the door open, the hinges squeaking and announcing your presence.

You saw Eddie, back turned to you, facing the open drawer to your nightstand, and fiddling with something in his hand. The vibrating noise grew stronger now that you were closer.

“Eddie,” you said as calmly as possible. “What’s that?”

Eddie's head whipped around as he turned to face you. He held his hand up in the air and clutched in his palm was your vibrator, buzzing on the highest setting.

With a curious look on his face Eddie asked, “is this your healer?”

Hobie x F Reader Part 2.

Part one is there.

Two people started petition for part 2 and I'm not the kind of person who ignores petitions, so here you go. EAT IT MHA HAHAHA!

-Hobie?!- I shouted with surprise and happiness.

-I wouldn't leave you to your fate for this fascist.- he says with a smile.

-Thanks for saving me. I thought he was going to do something to me or something, but you know, I could handle it somehow. - I said and casually freed myself from his arms. I looked around the room.

-Pavitr? Gwen? Peter? Peter B? Peni? And that cool spider-pig? What are you doing here? Ooooh, are you stalking us? I understand, I understand. - I joked.

-Funny and we all got together to save Miles. We decided that since you betrayed Miguel, you would side with us. - Gwen said, walking up to me.

-Interesting take on my behavior. But now I know your plans and I can tell them for Miguel! - I zoomed the camera drastically towards me (get the hell away from the 4th wall). Everyone looked at me in shock, ready to fight.

-Don't worry, I'm just making fun of you. "I'll tell it to Miguel!" Hahaha! He doesn't even listen to himself. - I made a joke.

-I had a heart attack.- Peni said and made her 'anime kawaii' smiley.

-Peni, you're sweet. Never meet your comic book version or I'll get depressed watching another Evangelion. (Greetings to the guys who knows). - I said and they all looked at me.

A moment of silence.

-Sorry, fourth wall. Tell us what our plan is. - I replied and we returned to the serious matter.

-All right. As we all know, Miles was sent to some universe and Miguel is hunting him down. First, we need to know what universe he is in. - Gwen said and I raised my hand.

-Yes, Reader?- Gwen asked.

-I'm guessing he's on Earth 42.- I said.

-Why 42?- asked Peter.

-I often stalk there - - ahem, ahem, I look at Miles from that earth and there is no Spider-man or anything like that on it and Miles is hot there - - ahem, ahem, bad. - I replied while looking at Hobie. He's so flyable.

-So 42. Okay, but what do we do first? Do we save Miles or fight Miguel? - Gwen asked.

-It's best to distract him and fight him on some other earth that is already destroyed.- Peni said.

-But how will we find one?- asked Peter B.

-Do you remember that earth where Miguel switched places with his dead body? This is earth 96099. There is not a living soul there. And the memories may weaken him.- I said.

-So Earth 96099. I guess that's all. Are there any other questions?- Gwen asked. I raised my hand.

-Do you like 'Girl in Red'?- I asked her.

-Who does not like? Here we go with the action-- Gwen couldn't finish her sentence.

-Wait! We have to make a shout! Stand around and one hand on the other. - I said and they did so out of curiosity.

-My hands are wet because I just washed them.- said Spider-Pig. I placed my hand just above Hobie's hand.

-Okay, now. Be aggressive! Be aggressive! I said be aggressive! - I shouted and we raised our hands.

-Thanks Reader for your… help. We'll be going bye.- Gwen said, and everyone except Hobie went up to the roof.

-You're not going?- I asked him.

-Relax. I just want to give you something. - he said and took something out of his pocket. It was a piece of paper with his number on it.

-Why do I need this?- I asked him and he smiled.

-Give it to the horny chick with the big boobs. Bye.- he said and my jaw dropped.

-No, I am joking. This is for you. - he said and went out the window.

There won't be any more parts of this, but I hope you enjoyed it. I didn't check. BAJLANDO!
