Note still not edited. I don't like editing.
Part 1!
The only place I knew Eddie would never find me was the abandoned cabin in the woods. The only person I've ever brought here was Steve. Steve and I usually hang out here just to get away from Hawkins and relax. He said the cabin belonged to Hopper before he moved in with Joyce. Now it was merely a shell broken down by nature. I curled up in a corner bringing my knees to my chest, trying to keep warm. How could I have been so stupid? Leaving my lyric book on my bed for Eddie to see. He'll probably never want to talk to me again. His face is forever burned in my memory. That look of confusion, of what the hell. I was dragged from the thoughts by the sound of footsteps coming into the cabin. I began to panic. Had Eddie found me? Had Steve told me where I was? What was I supposed to tell Eddie if it was him?
"y/n, are you in here?"
"Steve?" I looked up
"Oh, thank god we've been looking for you for 4 hours, woman!" Steve jogged with concern on his face
"We?" I sobbed
"Yeah, me, Robin, Eddie, Dustin, Nancy, Will, Mike, Lucas, Max, El, Gareth, Jonathan, Argyle, like everyone" Steve dropped next to me. "Actually, I'm pretty sure Nace has gone to get Hop."
"Eddie has been looking for me," I asked, ignoring the rest
"Of course, he literally broke my front door trying to get our attention after you took off" Steve threw his hands in the air. "What happened anyway?"
"Eddie didn't tell you?" I looked at Steve with big eyes
"No, he just came running in screaming that you had taken off and he couldn't find you."
"Let's just say you and Rob aren't the only ones who know about my crush on Eddie", I sighed
"Wait, you told him?" Steve jumped to his feet, running a hand through his hair
"Not intentionally, I was working on a song, and Eddie came over, and I left the songbook on my bed" I started crying again
"Oh y/n" Steve sat back down next to me.
He pulled me into his side, rubbing a hand on my arm, allowing me to cry into his shoulder. Steve sat in silence with me until I started shaking. We were on the edge of winter, so the weather had been getting quite cold lately.
"Come on, we should get you back. I'm sure everyone has been sufficiently scared by now" Steve gave me a small smile
"I don't think I can face Eddie" I looked at Steve, panicked
"y/n, just take a deep breath. It will be fine, trust me" Steve held a hand out to me.
I took his hand and allowed him to pull me up from my place on the ground. We strolled out of the cabin into the woods. Once my feet made contact with the dirt path leading out of the woods, I let out a slight squeal.
"Are you okay?" Steve spun to face me
"Yeah, apparently, running through the woods without shoes isn't a great idea", I tried to laugh
"Do you want me to carry you?" Steve asked, concern on his face
"Please, if it's not too much to ask" I looked down at the ground
Steve gave me a small smile motioning for me to hop onto his back. Steve carried me all the way to his house, making small talk and throwing out the occasional joke to make me smile. I would be lying if I said I wasn't nervous about getting to Steves, and I knew Eddie would likely still be there. Just the thought of Eddie was enough to bring me to tears, and I buried my face into Steve's shoulder and sobbed.
"Hay, y/n still thinking about Eddie?" Steve asked softly
I nodded into his shoulder.
"y/n, you should have seen how panicked he was when he couldn't find you. I think his beating himself up over everything. I can tell you for certain that, regardless, Eddie is still your friend."
We soon left the woods and were back in the familiar streets of Hawkins. It was only 3 streets across and 2 up from where we left the woods to Steves. I wasn't sure I was ready to face everyone, but at the same time, I was cold and tired and just glad to be inside. I think Steve much have sensed this as he placed me down, wrapped his jacket around me and picked me up bridal style, holding me to his warm chest. I sighed, taking comfort in his warmth. I loved Steve when we were together, but I loved Eddie more. Steve had never done one wrong thing during our relationship, so the day I broke it off with him, I spent hours sobbing to Eddie curled on his couch in his trailer watching movies. Eddie had been there every time I ended a relationship. He'd helped put me back together. He didn't know why I'd ended all the relationships, at least not until now. As we grew closer to Steve, I could hear the voices of my friends and Hopper yelling at each other over me. I felt terrible putting them into a panic like this, but flight wins for me every time when it comes to fight or flight.
"Are you lot certain you've searched absolutely everywhere she could have gone?" Hopper asked gruffly
"Yes, Hopper, we've looked everywhere", Dustin yelled. "Even the unlikely place of Eddie's trailer" "If she's still in town, then she's somewhere we don't know about," Robin said
"Jesus H. Christ" Eddie screamed
"Uh, guys", Mike spoke up
"Y/N", Eddie called, running towards us
I instinctively curled further into Steve, wanting to disappear. I heard Eddie stop before us, and I buried my face into Steve's chest.
"Y/n, are you okay?" Eddie asked. I could hear the pain in his voice
"Eddie", I whispered, every fibre of my being wanting to jump into his arms yet at the same time too scared to move
I'm here, sweetheart. I'm not going anywhere"" Eddie spoke gently
"y/n, is it okay for me to hand you over to Eddie? I want to make things more private for you two," Steve asked. I nodded into his chest.
Steve handed me off to Eddie, telling him to take me inside while he dealt with everyone in the front yard. I felt relaxed and safe when I was in Eddie's arms. I could smell Eddies cheap dollar store cologne and cigarettes on his clothes. Eddies arms held me tightly against his chest, almost as if he was scared to let go. Eddie carried me up the front steps of Steve's house and into his lounge room. Eddie sat on the lounge, still keeping me in his arms. He wrapped his arms around my waist and placed his chin on my head. I could feel the tears running down his cheeks. I pulled away just far enough to be able to see Eddies face. I placed my hands on either side of his face and wiped away his tears.
""I'm sorry I made you run away. Please don't run away again. I love you, I need you in my life, you are my life, I'm sorry it took me so long to see it, just please…."
I cut Eddie off with a soft kiss. Eddies hands found their way to either side of my face deepening the kiss. It was a kiss filled with emotion. Everything we never said was conveyed in that kiss. I could have stayed in that moment forever. Safe with Eddie, the man I love, have always loved and will always love.
Got myself a little treat, can't wait to start them when I get home from working tonight.
I'm hoping to have Supernatural Hunting Living and Love Part 8 and A Well Kept Secret Part 3 (final) up by Sunday so what would we like to see once I've done that.

Note this is my first post on here so be nice. I haven't written anything in like 7 years so I'm pretty shitty. Unedited work ahead, written in one sitting if you don't like it then bite me. If you want more let me know and I'll keep going!
Part 2!
...
We had become fast friends, Eddie and I. He was the first kid my age I had seen when my mother had moved us to the tiny speck on the map that was Hawkins. I was 5 years old, and my parents had just divorced. My mother had decided that a move would be the best thing for us both. ‘A fresh start with new faces and opportunities,’ she said. Not that I cared at 5. All she could find was a caravan at the local caravan park. That is where I met Eddie. He lived in the caravan next to mine. He had burst out of his front door and leapt over the steps in pure excitement when he saw me.
“Edward Munson” He smiled, holding out his hand
“y/n y/l/n,” I smiled back
The rest, as they say, was history. Eddie and I joined at the hip from that day on. Even when, much to both our disappointment, my mother had purchased a lovely house in town just after my 12th birthday. Eddie teased me relentlessly for weeks, faining hurt over how I was ‘leaving the lowly peasants to live in your castle clad with luxury.’ Always the drama queen. We still saw each other at school during the week, and I would often bike to his trailer on the weekend, or he would come to my place so we could play D&D with our other friends. Then my teenage years hit, and something changed. It started just after my 14th birthday. I started viewing Eddie differently. He was still my best friend, but suddenly, even the slightest glimpse of him sent butterflies flying in my stomach. I had brought this up with my mother, careful not to let slip that it was Eddie that I was talking about. “Oh, your first crush, how cute,” my mother had squealed. A crush? On Eddie? I couldn’t believe it. It wasn’t possible. I wasn’t supposed to crush on my best friend, yet here I was 6 years on, still stuck on the same guy. Eddie freaking Munson. My mum had said I would get over my crush soon enough and be on to the next cute guy at school, but the days turned to weeks, the weeks to months and the months to years, and I was still stuck on Eddie. Every fibre of my being knew Eddie was my soulmate, but Eddie was a loose cannon. I knew he wouldn’t be able to settle for one chick. I tried dating other guys but didn’t feel anything for them. It got to the point where Eddie started keeping track of who I was with just to mock me with them later.
Gave my virginity to Steve Harrington and broke up a month later.
Had a short-lived relationship with Gareth.
Spent one night with Billy Hargrove, Hawkins’s resident bad boy.
Jason, Jonathan, Argyle, the list goes on. After yet another boring shift with Steve and Robin at Family Video, I came home to an empty house and a note from my mum on the fridge. Gone on a girl’s weekend with Joyce, left money in my room, enjoy! I wanted so bad to call Eddie and ask him to spend the weekend, but I convinced myself to call Robin instead.
“Hello, Buckley residence”, Robin answered
“Hay Robin, want to spend the weekend at my place? My mum went on some weekend away with Joyce” I cringed as I realised I had rambled a bit
“Hay y/n, I would love to, but I already made plans with Steve. Apparently, his dweeb friends want to break into Hawkins lab for some stupid reason.”
“Probably trying to play Ghostbusters again”, I chuckled
“No doubt, Steve wants to ensure they are safe.”
“Aw, is poor Mummy Steve panicked about his little babies.” I burst out laughing
“I will tell Steve you said that” Robin laughed along. “Why don’t you ask Eddie to stay with you?” Robin asked once we had calmed down
“Eddie has been seeing someone random chick and hasn’t really had time for me, you know?” I sighed
“Not from what Nancy said”
“What did Nancy say?” My stomach did a summer sault
“Nancy was dropping Mike at Max’s and saw Eddie tossing a chick and her stuff out of his trailer. Apparently, he looked pretty pissed.”
“Still, I don’t think it’s a good idea.”
“Come on, y/n, if this is to do with you crushing on Eddie, then you need to suck it up and tell the man already.”
“I’m tired. I think I’m going to go change and go to bed, okay” I said quickly, changing the topic
“Whatever, but you can’t get all butt hurt when he moves on to the next girl”, Robin blurted out before I hung up the phone.
Sighing, I dragged myself up the stairs and to my room. I pulled off my work uniform, tossing it into the corner before retrieving an oversized Van Halen shirt and shorts from the cupboard. I then sat staring at my phone, thinking about everything Robin said. Before I could stop myself, I had my phone in hand, and Eddie’s number was dialled. I panicked when Eddie answered.
“Hello,” Eddie said, clearly frustrated
“Hay Eddie, sorry your clearly busy I’ll just let you be”, I mumbled out, going to hang up
“No, y/n, wait, it’s good to hear your voice” I could hear the smile in his voice. “I was starting to think you have forgotten all about me, the lowly peasant in his humble trailer.”
“Well, I have not, lowly peasant. I was actually calling to summon thee to my castle of luxury for the weekend if you wanted to; that is,” I giggled
“Wait, really? But what about your mum?” Eddie asked shocked
“She went for the weekend, and you know I hate being alone.”
“Say no more, sweetheart, for your knight in shining armour is on his way in his noble steed once I find the keys.” I could help but giggle more
“See you when you get here” I smiled
As soon as the phone hung up, I immediately became bored and panicked. I was going to spend the weekend here with Eddie. Multiple scenarios started to play through my head. What if he hadn’t broken up with his girlfriend, and she found out he stayed here? What if I let it slip that I like him more than a friend should, and he doesn’t feel the same way? Would it ruin our friendship? Rather than continue to panic, I opted to grab my guitar and work on a new song hoping it would keep me distracted until Eddie got here.
Eddie, darling, you’re my best friend,
But there are a few things that you don’t know of,
Why I borrow your jacket so often,
I’m using your shirt as a pillowcase
I wanna ruin our friendship,
We should be lovers instead,
I don’t know how to say this,
‘cause your really my dearest friend
A knock at the front door pulled me out of my thoughts. I dropped my guitar on my bed and dashed down the stairs. I tore open the front door and tossed myself at Eddie. He chuckled, catching me in his arms with ease.
“Missed me?” Eddie chuckled
“I have; it’s like you barely have any time for me since you started seeing what’s her face.” I scrunch my face up at the thought
“Oh yeah, well, Chrissy and I are over” Eddie took a step back
“Sorry to hear; want to tell me about it?” I asked, seeing Eddie was clearly hurt by it
“She wanted me to choose her or you, so I chose you” Eddie smiled
“Why me?” my voice caught in my throat
“Because any girl that can’t accept my best friend isn’t worth my time.”
My heart audibly broke. I’m unsure what I expected to hear, but it certainly wasn’t that. I told Eddie to put his stuff in my room while I ordered a Pizza for us for dinner. Eddie made some crack on his way to the stairs about us needing to pick a horror movie because it would make the Pizza taste better. I placed the Pizza order and went to pick a movie since Eddie was taking his sweet time. It was between A Nightmare on Elm Street and Friday the 13th. I took both movie choices and walked up the stairs to my room, looking for Eddie.
“Okay, so we have 2 choices here Friday the 13th or….” I looked up to Eddie
He sat on my bed, holding my book in his hands, reading over my lyrics. I froze, dropping both tapes. He raised his head to look at me, a look of confusion spread across his face. He glanced back to the page and back to me. I dropped my head in shame; I knew our friendship was ruined.
“Ed, I’m sorry”, I whispered
I turned and ran from the room. I ran out the front door heading for the only safe place I knew.
Guess who just deleted the entire Masterlist for Supernatural Hunting Living and Love. Yep my tired ass clicked delete instead of edit. All I wanted to do was update the list!
I did have a song but I can't for the life of me remember what it was so I'm starting from scratch. I don't want to give too much away as to what I'm using the song for but please throw me your suggestions.
I'm still here don't panic! Sorry I haven't been posting. I should have the next part of Supernatural Hunting Living and Love up tomorrow night AEST. And the next part of Objection up Thursday night AEST. I have been crazy busy with work. One of the people I worked with quit 5 minutes before her shift so I've been stuck doing 2 people's work. Jumped from 24 hours a week to almost 50! Hopefully they hire someone soon to take her place cause oh boy am I tired.
In other news all this extra work has meant extra money. Extra money means I was able to score a platinum ticket for All Hell Breaks Loose 13! Guess whose meeting Misha Collins in June! 🤩😁
Oh no mistakes were made! Tumblr what have you done to me!!!! I confidently finished and submitted my Web Design assignment only to then go back and look at the Tumblr screenshot I used for my example and welp....
I am mortified! My Uni assignment has now been smut bombed and by Eddie Munson none the less!
The amount of awkward I feel cannot be accurately quantified right now. I'm currently sitting on a bus travelling to the next town over with a bunch of school kids. Behind me is 2 girls that I'm guessing are about 15/16. Apparently, they have been spying on my phone and text messages and they saw I was talking to my finance whose saved in my phone as 'My Man's' and ask me if the guy in the pink hoodie on my home screen is my boyfriend because his cute.....MY HOMESCREENS FRICKEN OLIVER STARK. Like girls in my dreams.
The homescreen photo in question.
