@hauntedxwritings continued from here

"please. like he really expects more of me." wayne probably did expect more of both of them. no matter what the man was so hopeful and sure they would go on to do great things. and the sad part is that addie really didn't think it was an act. he really had that much faith in the sibling duo that had become like his own kids. and yet year after year both of them underwhelmed him and just shit those dreams a little deeper into the ground. at least eddie had his music. he might go somewhere with that. she was just sitting stagnet working at radio shack while being in the same grade of their younger members of the hellfire club. "at least you'll graduate high school." maybe. was there really an age that was too old for high school? did you simply age out at some point? eddie himself was testing those waters. guess they'd just have to wait and see. "you haven't done it yet." 86' baby. he kept saying that. but he'd said 84' then 85' the years before that. those had been his years and in the end, none of them were. "besides what's outside of this hell hole anyway?" probably a lot of things but addie didn't care. she'd been there her whole life and she didn't really aspire to leave. that was the problem, she didn't aspire to do much of anything. "now give me some shit to sell, i've got clients too." lecture time was over. it was like the blind leading the blind anyway when eddie tried to lecture her. they got nowhere.

“that’s fucked billy. really it is and i’m so fucking sorry.” addie’s voice was soft. no child should have to see or go through the things that she, eddie or billy went through. “but sometimes life just gives you a shit hand. it’s what you do with it that counts.” she took his hand in her own and laced their fingers together.. “my mom and dad get the shit sandwich with a cherry on top award of the year. just like neil does.” god how she hated him and the way he treated his son. “but then luck turned. al went to jail and faye…i don’t even know where she is.” she didn’t call either of her parents by their names. al and faye munson were no family to her. “and uncle wayne took us in.” he treated them like the children he never had even if he didn’t have much. “i want to be that person for you, billy. the one that you can count on to be there for you even when life is shit.” addie had never felt this way for anyone. “you won’t be like him. just making a conscious effort to know that he’s an awful person and you don’t want to be like him says a lot about who you are already. you’re not neil and you don’t have to own his mistakes.” she laughed a little at his comment about her family ‘sucking it up’ because it was true. “eddie already is. he says you could either be the worst thing or the best thing for me. he can’t decide.” her brother didn’t like billy and never had but he did like seeing his baby sister happy. wayne worked so much that he didn’t even know who addie spent her time with. just as long as she went to school and made an attempt to graduate he was happy. “hell yes i want this. i’m in. all in. i just am supposed to…uh…graduate.” she laughed. “if you’ll wait around a few years.” she was eighteen and could skip town now but she felt she owed a diploma to her uncle at least. make no mistake, if billy said he wouldn’t wait addie would drop everything and go. that’s how ‘all in’ she was. “nope. i don’t sell weed to my boyfriends. i’ll smoke you out for free.” she chuckled. eddie would kill her if she just gave billy some stash without charging. “if you want more, i guess you can buy it at the boyfriend discount.” she had no clue what that was because she’d just pulled it out of her ass. probably knocking a few bucks off would do the trick. “i’d hope so because it would be awkward if you thought there wasn’t something between us.” addie nudged his shoulder with her own. “fuck yeah we are going to try this. you bet we are!” she threw her arms around billy and cuddled closer to him. 

"You need someone who wants to give you something stable Addie and i don't know if i can do that. When my mom and Neil got married they actually loved each other for a while and then he started beating us both and mom left leaving me alone with Neil. He never lets me forget that fact either, say that my mom didn't love me enough to come back for me. I don't want my own marriage to end up like that and i'm afraid that it will." Billy laughs bitterly "Yeah, i should have known that would be the answer to that question. Everyone hates me beside you and i'm really not sure what we have here but if your family will suck it up for you because you like me then i guess we can give it a try." He tilts his head to the side and glaces at her, looking at her profile. God, was he in trouble. He had gone and got involved with Eddie's little sister. Billy was going to get himself killed. "You're sure you want to go back to Cali and leave everything that you have here for whatever we have here Addie because there is no going back, once you're with me you're with me." He looks at her with a cocked eyebrow "That shit doesn't matter to me because that's what makes you who you are. And as for the drugs, I really need some weed and i've got enough for quite a bit of it too." Billy then comes to the part of the conversation where he has to share his feeling and he hates that part because he's the fucking worst at telling people what he feels. "Okay, i admit that there's something going on between us and it's just been building over the month that we've been hanging out more together. I'll also admit that i like the feeling it gives me whatever the fuck it is, now comes the feeling part and this is always where i fuck up. I want to be around more and more. All day everyday and in my dreams at night so yes, we are going to try this Addie and fuck what other people think or like."

@hauntedxwritings

"should have thought about that months ago when i started doing it!" he had. she just had refused to listen. "come on dude you can't cut me off." addie whined. "they already paid." when the bag was handed to her, it was shoved into her pocket for safekeeping before he could change his mind. had to keep the jocks and preps that wanted their supply happy. most of them hated the munson siblings but without them where were they going to get their fix of whatever drug they needed their hands on in this small town? addie didn't deal in anything harder - mainly just weed and pills - there was no way eddie would allow that. one day she might weasel her way to selling the good shit. "how do i not need money? radio shack pays me three bucks an hour. get some more gigs and i'll come pack mule your equipment for you and you can pay me." until then it was dealing and selling overpriced electronics to people that could afford them. "i always am." she muttered. sometimes it was endearing how much he watched out for her. sometimes it was just damned annoying. "you skipping this period too?" she fully intended to. all the dorks - their youngest fellow d&d members and her classmates - were in science class living it up. while mike and dustin geeked out over that stuff, addie could care less.

Eddie rolled his eyes. "If you need money, you don't need to deal Addie.." Eddie hated that she was doing it, he hated that she felt like she didn't have another choice and if he ever could get Corroded Coffin off the ground, he would take her with the band, she could do make up or help set up the equipment. He wouldn't let her stay behind in Hawkins. He hated that she had given up, perhaps that was where they were, giving up. But he had to have hope for both of them right? He had to hope there was better for both of them. Maybe he had too much hope, dreamed to big. Perhaps there was nothing outside of Hawkins for them. But he needed something to believe in. He handed her another bag. "Just be careful."

@araneorum

it was a typical saturday night. addie and jamie were just sitting around the trailer with nothing to do while wayne was working his night shift and eddie was out doing god knows what. they were both high and full from the pizza they’d scraped together enough money to buy. now there wasn’t shit to do and that left them to their own devices. that was never a good idea. there was a stupid movie playing on the old tv in the living room and of course it sucked. that’s what happened when there was only one channel that came in semi clear. “the fuck are we even watching?” she really had no clue but she didn’t care.

“fuckin’ bored.” addie muttered. “this blows.” she yawned even if she wasn’t tired. “it’s only nine-thirty.” wayne had told them not to go out - just as he always did - but that had never stopped them before and probably wouldn’t that night either. looking around the living for something to get into, addie’s eyes zero’ed in on her cat sleeping on the back of the chair across the room. the tabby cat looked very content. “lets fuck with leopold. he fucks with me while i sleep.” it was only fair wasn’t it?  fucking with the cat and pissing it off was always a fun time no matter what. so why the hell not.

[onebigerror]

@rebelliousfamily - continued from here

"hey!" she poked him back and then did it a few more times just because she could. anything the teen could do to be excessively annoying, she would do. "who said you could touch me?" she teased as her finger prodded his arm. addie rolled over on the couch and looked up at eddie from her upside-down vantage point. "that is exactly why i was born. fuckin' mom and dad knew that you needed a pain in your ass to complete your life." she kicked her legs in the air as she spoke. addie was full of so much adhd energy that - much like eddie himself - she couldn't ever just sit still. "i'm bored. what should we do?" she looked to her older brother as though it was his job to entertain her.

[onebigerror]

@fragmcntdstars asked: ' we should stick together. ' ( addie and eddie ) // still accepting this meme

“duh!” the younger munson said rolling her eyes. “like there would be a time that i wouldn’t follow you. i’d follow you right into hell and back. actually we’ve been there and done that one already. i don't even want the shitty t-shirt.” addie never wanted to think about that dark realm again. the upside down was the closest thing to hell she’d ever seen. if hell was worse than that, she didn’t want to know what it was like. “you’re my world okay?” it was rare that she ever got sappy or said anything that wasn’t sarcastic but what she had witnessed and lived through with her brother had changed her - changed them both. she was always looking over her shoulder, she clung to eddie just a little tighter than usual. in fact, she never let him out of her sight. she’d even taken to sleeping in his bed instead of her own. just to make sure that he was okay - that he was still breathing. at least that was what she told herself. “i need you like i need fuckin' air, ed's” a hand reached out to brush some unruly black locks from his face. “munson’s stick together. at least the munson's in this trailer." al and faye didn’t count. their parents had ditched long ago making the siblings bond that much stronger. “now let's stop with all the feelings and do something fun. something that doesn’t involve sitting here in this trailer.” addie whined. “i feel like i’m going insane!”

[onebigerror]

@meaningful-negativity

“maybe it’s supposed to be something you should say but you’re being a slow poke.” addie pouted. “i don’t think you need to say it. we are together every day. the only time we spend apart is when i’m at school, you’re at work and when we are sleeping.” and sometimes not even then. addie loved skipping classes to come and bother billy at work. and she loved sneaking into his window at night. “wayne’s not even home and if he is he’s sleeping.” she placed her hand over his once they were in the car. “then don’t go home. stay with me. you can spend the night.” her uncle worked the night shift and eddie had gotten to the point where he just accepted that billy was around his sister even if he didn’t really like the idea. either way it didn’t matter. even if she was still in high school - and would be for the unforeseeable future - she was an adult. as far as addie was concerned she could do what she wanted with her life.

@onebigerror asked "If you’re mine, you need to understand I will burn the fucking world to the ground for you." (addie to billy)

"isn't that what i'm supposed to say to you and besides that, we haven't gotten to the part where i'm yours or did we talk about that and i not notice?" Billy spits out the words so fast that you would think he had a bee stinging the inside of his mouth "But if you would like to talk to me about it now then we can do that. Get in the car and i'll drive you back to your place. it's not like Wayne will come out there with a shotgun, we've sat there and talked before no problem. i just really don't want to go home right now."

@hauntedxwritings

“what he doesn’t know won’t hurt him. we get home before he even gets up. we delete the messages from school. and this never happened.” it wasn’t something that she hadn’t done many times before for herself and eddie. “you worry too much. nothing is that serious.” the funniest part of all was both ‘exceptional students’ were over the age of eighteen and should already be out of high school. addie didn’t know if eddie was ready for that yet. or if she was. going to school gave her something to do when she felt like showing up. “i know, i know. 86’ baby. it’s your year.” she’d heard it so many times. the thing is she wasn’t sure that she believed it any more than eddie himself did. “and maybe i’ll follow soon after in 1990 or something like that. she was currently repeating her freshman year with all of eddie’s freshman d&d members as it was. she didn’t know if she had much hope for herself. “okay. maybe i’ll go to gym class today and sit on the bleachers since i ‘forgot’ my uniform again.” addie forgot her uniform every day that she attended gym class and every day she was chastised for it and banished to the bleachers to watch everyone else suffer. not a bad thing if you asked her. there was no way she was changing in the locker room with a bunch of other girls. and showering in there? no thanks. “woods. why not? or the park! oh let's go to the park!” she started to jump around like a female version of eddie.

He shook his head looking at her. Uncle Waylon would kill him if he found out they were skipping. "Addie, you know Uncle Waylon would flip if he found out we're ditching classes. He's got that whole "responsible guardian" vibe going on. But hey, I get it. School's not everyone's thing. Just be careful, alright? We don't want to give him a reason to start laying down the law. And about the classes, maybe at least attend a few? I know it's boring, but trust me, it's better than dealing with Uncle's lectures. We've got each other's backs, sis, even without the typical family setup." He rolled his eyes. "Where do you want to go? The woods?"

@araneorum

“it sucks. like double stuf sucks more than the fuckin' oreo. that’s what it is. a bunch of fools in camouflage with explosives. which is always naturally a good idea…” addie rolled her eyes as she made gun fingers and shooting sounds at the television set. “all in boring ass black and white. i hate this movie and i don’t even need to know the plot. i hate this television too. if uncle wayne didn’t love it so much i’d fuck it’s shit up.” now that would be entertainment. take it out in the field behind the trailer park and bash the hell out of the old shitty television. addie’s a.d.h.d. my mind was already on to something else and the thought was only fleeting gratification. “oh! oh! remember when you gave old man buckley the lit firecracker? now that was a wicked cool move? poor robin, though. she looked like she shit herself when he lit those skidded underwear up. the ems laughing so hard they dropped him trying to put him into the ambulance was pretty wicked too. especially when he rolled off on the ground." mr. buckley. the fourth of july. the firecrackers. none of it correlated to the october afternoon they were living in. but it didn't need to. addie was simply to high to stick to one thought. 

the television. old man buckley. explosives. they are all forgotten the moment jamie confirms her initial bad idea was in fact a good one. she’s rolling off the couch. actually rolling off of it trying to get up and landing on the floor. “ow! damn. why is that coffee table even there? it’s stupid!” of course it's the table’s fault. not hers for being high. “we’re gonna get scratched.” she just shrugs and joins jamie in front of the chair leopold is sleeping on. “hey, fuckball. you mess with me all day. let’s see how you like it!” she grins. addie loves her cat but would she really be a good cat owner if she didn’t force her love on him when he didn’t want it? nope. she scoops the fat gray and white tabby up into her arms as he takes a moment to register what is going on. “look at you. so.damn.cute.” each word is punctuated with kisses to the cat's hissing, growling face. “whatcha you gonna do about it leo? nothing. just throw a fit. that’s all.” and probably scratch the hell out of both of them. she held the spatting, yowling cat out to jamie. “have at it. he sucks.” now this was fun. for now at least.

“you weren’t missing much. mom was a druggie and if we all didn’t look alike, i’d wonder if we were all really al’s.” addie never called al munson ‘dad’ because he wasn’t one. to her he was just a sperm donor. “and al was in jail more than he was at home. i don’t know why they stayed together and had two more kids after…” she stopped. addie was sure that joseph didn’t need to be reminded that they’d given him away - or lost him - she didn’t really know the truth. that was something neither of her parents ever talked about. finding out that they had an older brother came as a huge shock to both her and eddie. “he’s still in jail. i hope he rots there.” life had always been shittier with their father than it was without him. “uncle wayne is the closest thing that we’ve ever had to a father. he took us in after he got locked up and she finally split.” addie hoped she’d never come back. that was her brief dissertation on the losers that were faye and al munson. she wondered if he remembered them at all. god she hoped not. she finally does shut up but only because this is awkward and she doesn’t know what to say. she’s looking at a man that looks just like an older version of eddie and she’s not quite high enough for this. “i’m going to just…” she takes a joint from her crumpled cigarette pack and retrieves her zippo from the pocket of her leather jacket. “do you want a hit?”

@rebelliousfamily

“maybe i can help you.” she still insisted even after he said no. addie could be persuasive if she wanted to be. however, that usually worked with anyone other than eddie. unlike her older brother, addie didn’t know anything about d&d. she did have one hell of an imagination though and she did sit in whenever he would let her. she considered herself an honorary member of the hellfire club even if she didn’t actually play the game. rolling over she flopped on her stomach and then sat up. she flipped him off in return. it was kind of like a munsun sibling bonding gesture. “how do you know what i can come up with if you don’t let me try?” now she was eager to prove him wrong. she could help him. and he should let her. "what if i wrote a great campaign?"

Eddie rolled his eyes and waggled his hand in her direction, not quite touching but close enough that he was milometers away. "I can't solve your boredom little sis. I'm trying to get a campaign written out." He told her and flipped her off. He smiled as he did it though and just winked. "And no. You cannot help me with anything to do with my campaign."

[onebigerror]

@meaningful-negativity

“i want to if you want to.” she answered honestly. “it’s not something i have to have. like you said it’s just a piece of paper.” marrying billy just felt like extra security that he’d stay with her. if they ever ended up really being together. addie didn’t really know what this thing they had between them was. maybe it didn’t need a label. not everything in life had to be neatly labeled. sometimes things were just messy or complicated. this was just one of those things. “they’d hate you.” addie wasted no time in answering that because it was the truth. the munson clan was just her, eddie and uncle wayne and she knew that neither of them would like or approve of billy. hell, eddie had already voiced his opinion. but did she listen? no. if she had she wouldn't be sitting there at the pool after dark with billy. “but they’d eventually accept you. they’d want me to be happy.” that was also the truth. they couldn’t dislike him forever, especially when they realized that addie wasn’t letting go. “you challenge me.” again that answer came honestly and quickly. “other boys are boring. you’re like an enigma. you keep me wondering what will happen next.” did he piss her off? absolutely and quite often. did she want him despite that? hell yes she did. she’d take billy and all his flaws any day over all the other stupid boys in hawkins. “besides, i’m not perfect. i sell fucking drugs. i’m repeating my freshman year for the second time. and you don’t judge me for any of that.” she felt her breath catch in her throat as he suggested never doing anything about liking each other. “we’ve been together almost every day for the past month. i think it’s working. it’s not broken yet.” and please don’t let it happen. addie felt like she might die if he were to push her away now. “to hell with your father, billy. to hell with mine.” hers was in jail anyway. “we can’t live our lives worrying about other people and what they’d think or do. i say we go for it.” of course she’d say that, addie munson was head over heels for billy hargrove and she wasn’t letting go easily.

"You want to hitch yourself to me? Well, we can go to Cali together but the getting hitched might never happen. i don't believe that a piece of paper should have that much control over their lives. i mean i guess it would be nice but i don't have to have it." Billy then gives her a smirk "i can just imagine what the Munson clan would have to say about the whole thing though." He tilts his head to the side, looking her straight in the eyes "What makes you want to be around me? i'm a grade a asshole and i manage to piss off everyone who ever meets me so how did you get to be any different?" Billy then sits down on the side of the pool, looking out over the water "i've liked you for a while Addie but i don't want to get you in trouble with anybody so maybe it's better if we don't do anything about this but then again if you never try something you'll never know if it works or not. i bet your family even wants you to be happy which is something that mine has never even thought about for me. Neil would more than likely hurt you if it would get to me and it would get to me. i would either put the sonofabitch in the hospital or in the ground if he ever lay a finger on you."

@hauntedxwritings

"smart idea." she commended her brother's genius idea for skipping out and pretending to be in the nurses office. addie looked up to him even if eddie was no role model. she didn't care. as far as she was concerned her older brother was the coolest person that existed. would she tell him that? of course not. she didn't need to. it was obvious by how she followed him around and repeated all of the things he did. like several grades in high school. "seriously. what do you take me for? a bad kid?" addie smirked at his question before shrugging. eddie was doing better than her. she hadn't even been to a single class and probably wouldn't even attend any that day. she just arrived because she had nothing better to do. "i haven't gone to any classes today and i probably won't."

Eddie scoffed, she should know by now that he always skipped out on as much school as he could get out of. "Since I've been counted as here for the day, Miss O'Donnell thinks I'm sick and in the nurses office. So she's not looking for me." He laughed and leaned against a tree. "How many classes have you skipped today little miss.." Eddie looked down at his sister.

[onebigerror]

@meaningful-negativity

normally addie wasn't one to ask such deep questions. she couldn't care less about where she'd be in two years let alone ten. but this was different. this was billy fucking hargrove and she wanted to know where he saw himself in the future. anyone that knew addie was well aware that she dug him. despite even her older brother's warnings, addie was smitten with the hawkins bad boy. she laughed at the answer. "nah, i won't let you end up in jail." as though she could really stop it from happening. she'd damn sure try. and then it was her turn to answer the question. she took only a few seconds to blurt out her answer. "with you." that was all she wanted. nothing else mattered to her. wherever billy went would be the only place addie wanted to be. "i don't know. back in california. you always talk about going back there. hitched. if you are into that kind of thing." addie would marry billy that second if he asked. the air was warm but suddenly she was shivering in the string bikini she'd decided to wear for their night swim. she was sure she'd made a complete ass out of herself.

@onebigerror asked "where do you see yourself in ten years?" (my oc addie munson to billy)

Billy just looks at her for a moment and then laughs "in jail the way my life has been going the last few years but in all fairness i could change the way it's going any time now and avoid that much drama." He chuckles then, looking out over the pool which he has keys to and so brought them to so they could talk "Where do you see yourself in ten years is the more interesting answer to the same question or it is to me anyway."
