He was everything you wanted…

The way he smiled had the power to brighten anyone's day.

Eddie Munson was undeniably handsome. Wherever he went, he seemed to make the room come alive, or at least that's how it felt to you. From a distance, he warmed your heart. Though you were part of the same friend group, you didn't interact much. It wasn't shyness that kept you apart but rather a sense of unease about being your true self.

Growing up as an outcast wasn't easy. There were always expectations of what you should be—“normal.” But you weren't. You were simply yourself.

That doesn't mean you’ve fully embraced it.

Eddie sauntered over to the picnic table where the group was lounging and took a seat with his usual ease. “What’s the plan for today?” he asked, flashing his signature grin, his dimples making an appearance. That grin.

“Besides band practice? Nothing much,” Ryan replied. He was a trumpet enthusiast who enjoyed going out, though the others usually scattered to do their own things.

Brit and Kyle were caught up in their affectionate bubble, while Ryan and Garret were huddled over Calculus homework. I was sprawled out on the grass by the tree, indulging in my favorite pastime: people-watching.

Eddie’s gaze landed on me, and I cringed internally. I’ve never been good with eye contact. “How about we… go to a party?” he suggested, still looking my way. I was the only one who seemed to be paying attention. I shrugged, and Eddie turned his attention to Ryan and Garret, slapping his hand down to gather their focus.

Ryan and Garret exchanged glances, and Ryan’s smile widened. “I think you’re onto something,” he said, his enthusiasm evident. He had a knack for embracing the most outrageous ideas if it meant escaping from schoolwork.

Garret rolled his eyes. “You’re fai—” Ryan cut him off with a hand over his mouth. “Shhh, my sweet angel… The man is speaking,” Ryan said, his wicked grin matching Eddie’s.

Eddie’s eyes shifted back to me. Oh no. “What about you, princess? Are you in?” he asked, his gaze fixed on me. Anything for you… Wait, PRINCESS?! His pet names made me want to roll my eyes.

“I don’t kn—” I started, but Ryan interrupted. “Come on, you need to party more. We’re in college, and you haven’t been to a single party!” he said dramatically.

Caught between their insistence, I relented quickly (they wouldn’t stop until I agreed). “Fine… but what should I wear?”

“Something sexy~,” Ryan chimed in, wiggling his eyebrows before Eddie could respond. Eddie’s eyes remained on me, making my stomach flutter.

He held my gaze a moment longer. Trying to avoid reacting to either Ryan or Eddie, I glanced over to see Brit lifting her head from Kyle’s shoulder. “Do you know who’s going?” she asked.

“Nope, but it doesn’t really matter if we all go together. It’ll be fun, I promise,” Eddie replied. Brit took a moment to consider before speaking. She liked to think things through, unlike the boys, except for Garrett, who was always practical.

“Y/n, you have to come! We can get ready together at my place!” Brit said suddenly excited, her smile bright. Kyle squeezed her affectionately, clearly enjoying her enthusiasm. They were the epitome of couple goals, and it made me sigh.

“Okay, Brit. Should we meet up around five or six?” I asked, checking the time and noting it was just an hour until five. The thought of having to look good and let loose made me anxious, but the idea of spending time with my friends—and seeing Eddie in those cropped shirts—made it worth it.

“Yes! I’ll text you with the details and pick you up. Let’s get going, babe,” Brit said, gathering her things as Kyle did the same. They both bid their goodbyes and headed out. I followed suit shortly after, the boys saying their farewells. As Ryan made another “sexy~” joke, Eddie playfully smacked him on the head. I shook my head with a smile and left.

Brit picked you up from your dorm and drove to her place, where the atmosphere shifted from mellow Jeff Buckley tunes to high-energy tracks meant to get you both pumped up. By the time you were ready, around 10:30 pm, you were both decked out and eager for the night ahead. Brit, embodying a dark, feminine allure, looked striking, while you donned an outfit that you weren't entirely used to but had always admired.

The door swung open with Kyle’s dramatic entrance. “My eyes are closed! I tried knocking but you’ve got the music blasting!” he announced, stumbling in with his eyes shut. Brit quickly turned down the volume. “We’re ready, you silly rabbit.”

He parted his hands a bit, then grinned widely, “Who is this beautiful creature in front of me?!” He shouts and cups Brit’s face. They laugh together, their affection palpable.

“Get a room,” I say rolling my eyes dramatically.

Brit shot back with a grin, “You’ll find your own lover soon enough, and be just like this!”

The drive to the party was a blur of metal anthems, courtesy of Kyle’s “I’M A ROCKSTAR!!” playlist. Your stuff was nestled in the seat beside you, just in case Brit or Kyle couldn’t drop you back at the dorm—comfort was always your priority.

When you arrived, there was a sea of cars outside. Kyle lets you and Brit out first to find a parking spot. Brit quickly sent a text to the group chat announcing your arrival. Not long after, Ryan and Garrett appeared, with Ryan trying—and failing—to sneak up on you with his usual noisy antics. “You’re an idiot,” Brit quipped, laughing. No sign of Eddie though.

Ryan, unfazed, responded with his usual mischievous grin. “And you love me for it,” he shot back, drawing a chuckle from everyone.

Kyle asked the question on everyone’s mind. “Where’s Eddie?” he asked, locking arms with Brit as they approached the entrance.

“He must be caught up inside, let’s go join him!” Ryan spouts enthusiastically and drags Garrett with him, and the rest all follow. The music gets louder and you scan the room, searching for Eddie amidst the crowd of people. The beer pong game was already in full swing, with Ryan and Garrett competing fiercely, while you and Brit went for drinks and discussed the game’s potential victor.

Amid the noise, the kitchen was slightly quieter but still busy with about ten people.“I’m glad there are still drinks left,” you say and for a moment turn around to check the area for more. As you reached for a drink, you suddenly locked eyes with Eddie. His warm, brown eyes roamed over you with a slow, appreciative gaze. He leaned casually against the wall, his iconic cropped metal shirt and silver accessories adding to his striking presence. You feel your face and ears warm up. My wish came true.

He’s going to be the death of me.

“There he is! We were looking for you!!” Brit yells across the room and waves him over. He walks over, staying close. “Sorry for the delay,” Eddie said, his voice smooth. “Had to help a friend who’d overindulged. I figured one of you would be here.” He looked between you and Brit, his gaze lingering a moment longer on you. “You both look amazing tonight,” he added, giving you a wink that made your knees go weak.

The rest of the journey back seemed to blur together. Drinks in hand, you tried to focus on the game of beer pong, where Ryan was basking in his victory over Kyle, his cocky grin in full force. Eddie stayed near, you couldn’t help but look at him. He made you feel warm inside, you can only hope he feels the same.

The night continued in a whirl of laughter, music, and fleeting moments. With Eddie’s presence adding a spark to the already vibrant atmosphere, you found yourself stealing glances his way more often than you intended. Every time your eyes met, his warm smile and casual demeanor made your heart race a little faster.

The beer pong game raged on, with Ryan and Kyle exchanging playful jabs as they played. Kyle wouldn’t let him go. Garrett, always the observer, cheered them on with a grin. Eddie, though not directly involved in the game, was in the midst of the fun, effortlessly blending into the group.

He would join a few rounds against Garrett when either Ryan or Kyle needed a much-needed break. Eventually, Brit and Kyle would drift into the crowd, and you were left with Eddie and the group, trying to navigate through the raucous party.

You decided to take a break from the chaos and wandered over to a quieter corner of the house. Eddie followed, his presence a reassuring comfort amidst the crowd. He leaned against the wall, giving you a sidelong glance. “Mind if I join you for a moment?” he asked, his voice low and inviting.

“Not at all,” you replied, trying to sound casual despite the fluttering in your chest. We are alone…

He moved closer, his shoulder brushing against yours as he leaned in slightly. “I’m glad you came tonight. I’ve been wanting to spend more time with you,” he said, his voice barely above a whisper, yet it carried a warmth that made your heart skip.

You looked up at him, surprised and pleased. “Really? I didn’t think you noticed me.”

Eddie chuckled softly, his eyes twinkling with amusement. “Of course I did. It’s hard to miss someone as interesting as you. You always seem to be in the background, but I’ve noticed you.”

I’ve noticed you, Eddie. With every fiber in my being.

His compliment made you blush, and you tried to play it cool. “Well, I’m glad I’ve managed to catch your attention.”

Eddie’s gaze softened, and he took a sip from his drink. “So, tell me more about you. What’s something I wouldn’t guess about you?”

The question caught you off guard, but it was a welcome distraction from the party’s noise. “Hmm, well, I guess I’m really into old movies. Not just the classics everyone knows, but the obscure ones that hardly anyone talks about.”

Eddie’s eyes lit up with interest. “That’s awesome. I’m a bit of a film buff myself. Maybe you could recommend a few to me sometime?”

You smiled, feeling a bit more at ease. “I’d like that.” A lot.

As the night wore on, the party’s energy showed no signs of waning. You found yourself drawn into conversations and activities, but Eddie remained a constant presence by your side. Whether you were discussing your favorite movies or just enjoying the music, his attention made everything feel more special.

The clock ticked past midnight, and the party began to wind down. People started saying their goodbyes, and the house gradually emptied. Eddie walked with you and Brit towards the door, his hand brushing against yours in a way that felt intentional.

At the threshold, Eddie turned to you, his eyes reflecting the dim light of the early morning. “I had a great time tonight. I hope you did too.” He looked amazing, like always.

“I did,” you admitted, feeling a mix of happiness and reluctance as the night came to a close. “Thanks for making it so much fun.”

Eddie’s smile was soft but genuine. “Anytime. Let’s hang out again soon. Maybe we can catch one of those movies you mentioned.” Please!!!

You nodded, feeling a thrill at the thought of spending more time with him. “I already have one in mind.”

With a final wave and a promise to talk tomorrow, Eddie said his goodbyes and headed off to his van. As you and Brit made your way back to Kyle’s car, you couldn’t help but replay the evening in your mind. They’re luckily able to drive, as their night consisted of dancing and beer pong. Eddie’s presence doesn’t leave your mind as he turned an ordinary night into something memorable.

The drive back was quiet but comfortable, Brit humming softly to the tunes on the radio. As you reached your dorm, the night’s events felt like a dream, leaving you with a hopeful smile and a heart full of anticipation for what might come next.
