Headcanon request js Eddie alsen fluff w best friend! reader that's kindof a slowburn?

Ahh this is such a cute idea yes yes yessss

Friends to Lovers with Eddie

Being Eddie’s best friend was tough sometimes. Especially when you maybe were kind of in love with him.

You were best friend since childhood. In the third grade some guy pushed you off the swings and Eddie punched him. He got detention but you got a best friend for life.

The two of you were inseparable up until High school. Things started to change a little bit around then. Eddie was undeniably charismatic and popular while you preferred to hang in the back.

You grew apart for a little bit but then prom season rolled around in your junior year. Eddie was of course going to prom and likely going to win prom king.

You got asked by some guy in your science class, he was nice enough. Then when prom came around he never showed. As depressing as it sounds you waited outside of your house. At least your parents weren't home.

Eddie had been running late and saw you sitting outside. Tears rolling down your face. He rushed to your side, cracking jokes just to get you to smile. A feeling of guilt coming over him as he realizes how much the two of you had grown apart.

So he dried your tears, changed his tie, and took you to prom. He refused to let you spend the night alone. Even spilled a drink on your so called date.

When he won prom king he ignored whoever had won prom queen and danced with you instead.

Looking back how could you not fall in love with him? Life kept going and well the two of you went to college, moved to New York and kept going about your lives. You realized slowly that you had fallen in love with Eddie but you had already established such a friendship that you didn't want to ruin anything.

When he met Rebecca you took a seat back. He was happy and you were happy that he was happy. Then he got his heart broken and you sat with him as he cried.

The damage to the bedroom was already done and so was the damage to his heart. This wasn't the time to tell him so you comforted him as a friend.

You have to admit that you grew frustrated as all his hookups started to happen. Like it was his life but you were getting real sick of seeing a different woman in your bathroom every weekend.

Apart of you was upset, wondering why he couldn't see you the way he saw them. As someone attractive that he'd want to at least spend the night with.

Eventually you got fed up with him. Snapping at him when you didn't really want to. Spilling your heart out to him and when he asks why you even care if you're so frustrated you let your emotions get the best of you and tell him that you love him.

He's stunned and when he doesn't say anything you just leave. Needing to cool down. Eddie goes crazy trying to find you. Worried beyond belief because you stormed out of your new york apartment in the middle of the night.

When you do come back he doesn't give you a chance to run away. Pulling you into his arms and kissing you like his life depends on it. Telling you how much of an idiot he is. That he loves you too and has since the third grade and he should have said something.

You cut him off with a kiss and you two spend the night tangled into each others arms. Just cherishing the lost time you could have had together. It doesn't matter now though.

Neither one of them knows how to feel about her clothing change

[geddy-leesbian]

May I ask any headcanons you have about Luis's family?

OF COURSE YOU CAN ASK I WILL ANSWER ANYTHING ABOUT LUIS!!

I went into his family a little bit in the most recent chapter of my main ongoing fic, but I'll get more in depth here.

The Navarro family historically were fishermen, but Luis's grandfather, Alsen, was a black sheep who preferred hunting on dry land, very rarely fishing. His wife, Luis's grandmother, died before Luis was born. (I haven't thought about her that deeply yet, surprisingly.) They had one daughter, Juliana.

Overall Juliana was a nice, likeable girl, although a bit of an outcast because the walk between the Navarro home and the main village square was difficult enough to stop her from socializing with the other villagers frequently. She would walk there once a week for church, and because she was musically gifted she'd play piano or guitar in church. She was a bit of a hopeless romantic too, always hoping someone would make a move on her, but being too shy to try making the first move herself.

Mingo was a real Messy Bitch™ who didn't care for religion or social norms whatsoever, sleeping around with any woman he could successfully charm. Eventually he had his eyes set on Juliana. Alsen knew his reputation and warned Juliana to stay away from him because he'd break her heart, but she couldn't resist. He went through the trouble of hiking to the Navarro home at night to visit her in secret, and that was enough effort to really sweep her off her feet. Sometimes he'd talk about hating Valdelobos and how one day he was going to run away to a big city and do great things, and that vision also appealed to her.

Eventually she gets pregnant. She's excited, Alsen is furious. He gets into a screaming match with Mingo, demanding he marry Juliana before she has the baby. (And the anger is very out of character, Alsen is a very cool and collected man who almost never even raised his voice. It's just matters concerning his daughter, and Luis in some of my AU's, that would upset him deeply enough he'd lose his temper in an argument.) Mingo, allergic to commitment and not at all family oriented, fucks off and leaves the village, making promises to come back which he had no intention of keeping. It was quite scandalous, Juliana being pregnant out of wedlock in such a religious place, and she became even more of an outcast than she was prior. But she was still excited about having a baby, and believed the empty promises. Alsen knew Mingo was full of shit and would never come back, but still loved Juliana more than anything and looked forward to becoming a grandfather. He talked to Mingo's family, hoping they might take some interest in the child that would share their blood and give Juliana more of a support net, but they were entirely unsympathetic. They'd all but disowned Mingo themselves due to his embarrassing behavior, and didn't feel responsible for his child.

Juliana lived long enough to name Luis, and make Alsen promise to raise him and not poison him against his father, still believing that one day Mingo would come back and want a relationship with his child and fearing Alsen would try to get in the way of that, telling Luis he was a bad person that abandoned him and his mother. Which she was right about, Alsen hated the man, but he also loved his daughter enough to keep the promise. He had nothing nice to say about him, so he just refused to tell Luis anything about his father, technically keeping the promise.

Raising Luis would have been really hard at first too. Being socially ostracized meant the village's new mothers who may have agreed to nurse an orphan under different circumstances would have been hesitant to nurse Luis specifically, and formula wouldn't be an option in Valdelobos, so Alsen would have had to turn to poor substitutes like goat's milk. Baby Luis didn't thrive, there were a lot of moments where Alsen wasn't sure if he'd make it, but he pulled through and was very healthy by the time he was a toddler.

Luis looks a lot like his mom.

I also HC that Luis's jacket originally belonged to his mother. The fit/cut of it just strikes me as more feminine, and I like the thought of Luis having a connection like that to his family.

Alsen did his best to educate Luis himself, trying to give him a decent foundation for when he eventually grew up enough to leave the village and go to university. Of course it wasn't even close to the type of formal education Luis would have received outside of Valdelobos, but it at least instilled a love of learning into Luis so he was motivated to educate himself after his grandfather's death.

.

Anyways, yeah long post. Figured I'd just put all these sublabels on the same post so I can easily copy and past definitions lmao. Also likely coining terms here like "Alloasen" is one since I don't really see people using other terms like Alloace and Alloaro for the other forms of attraction really ever. Idk if I'll ever make flags for terms like Alloafa or Alapl, since this post was already a lot lol.

These aren't the only Al sublabels possible, these are just the "main" kinda of attraction in my head where I know what colors to use for. Feel free to request other attraction terms like Social, Xenial, etc in the future when I have requests open, or make your own.
