「The connection starts」

"You two are now forced to stay by each other's sides until I see you guys finally getting along!" My principal said, raising her voice as she spoke. "B-but!-" I stuttered and choked on my words before I could finish, not liking where this was going. "That's not fair! Don't you understand my popularity is currently on the line?!" I yelled out at my principal. "Young man, you are not to raise your voice at me! What I say, goes. Now both of you, OUT!" My Principal told us before shewing us out of her office as if we were flies. I stood next to Eddie, the freak of the school while slapping my hand against my forehead. "I can not believe I have to stay next to you for the whole day. Maybe even the whole year! Seriously, this is some kind of sick joke." I said, looking at the floor then to his eyes. "I-I mean... this isn't the worst thing in the world! Right? Maybe it's a good thing we're finally going to get along." Munson said to me as he played with his ring. I obviously do not want to be in the situation I am in right now.
This is absolutely,

TERRIBLE!

"No Edward! This is awful that I have to be standing next to you every single second of my school time. I already hate school as it is and this is only making it worse. Not easier!" I said, so frustrated I could just burst at any second. "I am literally going to punch a wall!" Eddie quickly speed walked up to me and put his hand on my shoulder, gently rubbing it. I looked at his hand as if a little kid that had messy hands had just touched me. "It's okay, L/N. Don't get to anxious... I don't want anything bad happening to you." I looked at him as if he was crazy and moved his hand off of my shoulder and onto his face, making him slap himself. "Ouch.. that hurt." He started rubbing his face like a little kid and frowned deeply. "Well, don't assume that I'm gonna play nice." I told Eddie while walking away with him of course following me. "I want to be your friend though..." He said, having less enthusiasm as he used to, obviously disappointed that he couldn't get to know me better. I went silent, kind of enjoying the fact that he wanted to be my friend. Wait.. WHAT?! I can't feel this emotion. He's the freak and I'm the jock. This is not how this is supposed to work, I'm supposed to be with a dumb blonde or something. Not a freak or just in general a guy. I'll just pretend I never felt that way I did.

After school was over, I was happy to finally have the rest of the day to myself. I did not want to hang out with Munson. Then, while I was walking to my car to drive home, I heard a familiar voice getting louder and louder as it got closer to me. "Hey, wait up!" HIM. Oh no, not again! I don't want to hear his idiotic voice, considering I've heard it the entire day. I've been hanging out with him in every single damn class I had, plus lunch! The last thing I wanted to do was see him again. I groaned loudly, "What do you want?! I'm so tired I want to go home already and you are the last person I wanted to see." I told him, annoyed, while I laughed out the last few words. "Well... don't you remember our project? We got chosen to work together because of our punishment." Right when Eddie said that, I looked down at the floor for a second then I lifted my head up and put my hands in my hair, my grip tight. "Oh my god!" I yelled, dragging out the O's. I pulled on my hair as I walked back to my car, Eddie following behind. I unlocked my car and opened the door, turning it on. I closed my door and went over to the passengers side, opening the door then looked at him emotionless waiting for him to get inside. He looked at me confused, not knowing what I was doing. "Well, your getting in my car aren't you?!" I said opening my eyes wide open at him. "O-oh.. OH! Okay sorry sweetheart." He said, me not noticing what he had just said. After he got into my car, I closed the door and walked over to the drivers side. Before opening the door, I had realized what he said. I opened the door and sat down quickly and slammed the door shut. "Did you just call me sweetheart?" I asked. "Yes I did, darling." I opened my eyes wider than earlier if it was even possible. "Okay, seriously dude; where are these nicknames coming from?!" His face started heating up just enough to where I could see it. Did he perhaps have something for me? No, probably not. I mean, we've over just met and this isn't like one of those "Another Cinderella story" movies. "Just ignore it." Eddie said, looking out of the window on his side.

When we finally arrived to my house after a long drive, without hesitation, Eddie opened his car door and quickly went over to my side before I could even take off my seatbelt. He opened my car door and said, "For you, my prince." He said, bowing down as I took my seatbelt off and got out of my car after turning it off. "You are such an idiot." I said, slightly laughing as I held his hand to get up. I realized what I was doing, quickly snatching my hand away. "Okay, bipolar." Munson told me, laughing at me. "Whatever, freak!" I said as I walked over to the front door, unlocking it. After Eddie had gotten into my house, I closed the and locked it, then put my keys on the key hanger my mom had bought. "My parents aren't currently here so we pretty much have the whole house to ourselves." Since it was a Friday night, Eddie dragged me to my own room and sat me down on my bed. "Well then, Mr. L/N... how about we just chill on your bed?" I looked at with no expression on my face for a second then said, "Okay." I shrugged, not really caring about the project we were supposed to be doing. After I changed my clothes while Eddie turned around, he looked at me. "What am I supposed to wear?" He asked me, assuming I was gonna give him some hand-me-downs or something. "Your own clothes, duh. I mean, your not spending the night or anything." Munson quickly went from smiling to frowning, then said, "B-but why?... I really wanted to." I looked at him, annoyed, not wanting to deal with his shit anymore. "Whatever! If it means your gonna zip the lip, then fine." Eddie smiled, "Yayy!"

After what felt like forever, Eddie scooted closer to me and began to lay down next to me. I looked at him, watching his every movement. I noticed what this meant and tilted my head, disappointed. "Oh, come on! Don't tell me your already going to sleep!" I said. "Well, yeah. I'm tired and you should be tired too!" He told me. I got very upset and was close to almost pouting like a baby. "Whatever! Since I'm not tired, I'm staying up!" I said, before quickly sitting up and staring at the wall. "Okay, whatever you say." He laughed while starting his sentence. Like he thought would happen, I ended up laying down and getting real drowsy. He rolled over and looked at me who still had their team sweater on that I got from my basketball coach. Munson gently grabbed my arms, lifting them so that he could take my sweater off of me without making me uncomfortable or hurt. He started by grabbing my left wrist and slipping the sweater off of my left arm. Then he grabbed my right wrist, doing the same to my right arm as he did to my left arm. After he got my sweater off, I was awake. "Wanna cuddle?" He asked as if it was a normal friendly question. I replied with, "Get that idea out of your head, cause it's not happening." He looked at me with puppy eyes like a child. "Aww... but darling." He called me darling for the 2nd time. I slightly blushed uncontrollably, not even noticing. I rolled over, facing the corner of the wall on my left side.

Soon after I fell asleep, I rolled over, now facing Eddie. I scooted over, getting closer to him as I wrapped my arm around him and slightly put my leg over him without knowing. Eddie, who knew this was going to happen, grabbed the back of my thigh, kind of near my bottom, and lifted my leg up. He put his arms around my waist for support and fell asleep. Eddie didn't do this cause he liked me... right? He thought it was a friendly thing to do... right? Maybe he thinks I'm like a younger brother to him. Well, I guess we'll never know.
