Eddie Munson x fem reader

Word Count: 1.7k

While reading on the couch with your boyfriend you start to feel flushed, your book not helping. All you want to do is have him in your mouth.

Warning: 18 +. oral (m receving), cock warming, cum swallowing, kinda soft dom!eddie, i think that's it.

Thank you to @munson-blurbs for the book line ideas 💗

Masterlist

The plan was simple. Stay in and hang out. With the weather dropping thirty degrees overnight, it was the obvious thing to do. 

You sat next to your boyfriend, each of you cuddled up on the couch with a blanket thrown over you and a book in your hands. Eddie was reading one of Terry Goodkind's Sword of Truth novels and you had your own fantasy romance that you had been deeply immersed in for most of the chilly afternoon. 

The gas heater made a low hum as it warmed the small living room of your shared apartment, but that wasn't the heat that was making you uncomfortable.

The knight’s hand smoothed over the smooth taffeta of her dress only to begin bunching it up to reveal the white, cotton, split drawers the princess wore. He had exposed the plush flesh of her thighs, places no other soul had ever seen, save for the maids who helped her dress and bathe each morning.

Your book had turned from sweet romance to raunchy in a matter of pages and the heat pooling between your legs was becoming harder and harder to ignore. Especially when Eddie was so close to you that you could smell his cologne mixed with cigarette smoke. It didn't help that you were passing a joint back and forth.

She shuddered as he kissed up her leg from ankle to quivering, needy sex. She had never felt such anticipation, such a carnal yearning.

Eddie paid you no mind as he flipped through pages of fighting and magic like they would burn his fingertips if he held onto them longer than needed. 

Now, you were distracted. The book lay in your lap, open to the same two pages from two minutes ago. You had read and read and read the same sentence over a dozen times and yet you had no clue what it was saying. All you could think about was how your thighs couldn't stop clenching and your mouth was salivating way more than normal. And as you watched Eddie out of the corner of your eye, you knew it was because you craved to have him there. To have his cock nestled between your lips and your nose pressed into that wild thatch of hair above it. 

So, with a mischievous smirk on your face, you shut your book, tabbing your place with a random receipt lying on the coffee table, and threw the blanket off your legs. 

Eddie never once looked away from his book as you slid from your seat onto the floor. 

With a deft hand, you pulled the blanket away from Eddie's lap and crawled your way between his legs. 

He looked at you then. Eyes full of questioning. 

You say nothing as greedy fingers make for the band of his sweats. He doesn't stop you, only takes another drag from the blunt and looks back at his book. 

Licking your lips, you pull his pants down along with his boxers. Eddie helps you by pushing his hips up slightly. He's soft when you pull him from the confines of his clothes but you can feel him beginning to harden in your hand. 

You eagerly scoot closer, knees pressing into the bottom of the couch. With an open mouth, you take him into you. He's warm and you hum. He always tastes so good. 

Eddie gives you a sigh and scooches his way down the cushion widening his legs.

Since he's not fully hard yet, you can fill your mouth with him more comfortably than you could if he were fully erect. Still, he's big and stretches your mouth wide. As you suck on him, pulling him out of you until the very tip of him is left then smothering him back in, he becomes stiffer. 

Your tongue laves over his cock, pressing into the veins running the length of him. Spit is collecting in your mouth as you begin to bob your head up and down. 

Eddie stubs out the blunt in the ashtray on the side table and once it leaves his fingers, they are raking through your hair. He doesn't pull, he just rests his hand in your hair, wanting to touch you. 

Flicking your eyes up you are met with the cover of his book and you huff through your nose, disappointed at not being able to see him. He stays focused on his reading, only giving you a small reaction when you either deep-throat him or suckle on his head. 

Then, when you're tired of him not giving you anything, you pull off and reach out to push his book down. 

"Yes, sweet girl?" He asks tilting his head to the side, tutting at your pouting face.

"Does it not feel good?" You ask.

Eddie chuckles. "Corse it feels good baby."

Your brows furrow. "Then why aren't you making any noise?”

His eyebrows downturn softy into that familiar, mocking look he gives you when get all small and needy for him. “Want me to moan for you, is that it? Need me to let you know how good your perfect mouth feels?” 

You nod. 

“Ah- ah, baby. Use your words.”

“Yes.” You say, breathlessly, keeping your eyes on his. 

“Then I’ll make some noise just for you, baby.”  

Smiling, you take up his cock again and lick a sloppy, wet stripe up the underside of him. Starting from his sack to the very tip before engulfing him in your mouth hungrily. 

Eddie winks at you before going back to his book, only now he isn’t as quiet. His moans had you soaking through your panties and shorts. His pants and heaving breaths made your chest ache and your nipples pebble in want. 

Closing your eyes, you bobbed your head, up and down, up and down. Spit gathered in the corners of your mouth and dripped down his length. Your fingers dug into his thighs, nails creating half-moon crescents in his milk-white skin.

On one particular deep swallow, Eddie let loose a strangled cry but he kept reading. You had taken him so far into your mouth that he was touching the very back of your throat. Your nose was smushed against his hair-covered skin and a hand reached to play with his balls. 

You wanted to distract him. Distract him like you had been. Make him feel so good he could only think about one thing: you. 

Shaking your head, you took him as far as you could, gagging on him. When his hips jutted up into you, you knew you had him.

“That’a girl.” He moans. 

You hum around him before you pop off and kiss your way to his balls. They’re heavy on your tongue, warm. You suck one into your mouth, playing with it. Then you let go of it with a pop only to go to the other. You take your time, massaging each with fingers and tongue, pulling whimpers and strangled breaths from the man above you. 

Eddie lets out a long whine and his kegs shift, feet planting firm on the carpet for stability. His fingers slid back into your hair, pushing you into him.

 You pull off him again move back up to his shaft and lick it slowly, savoring the taste of his skin. Looking up at him under heavy lids and thick lashes you say, "Want you to cum down my throat, Eddie. Wanna taste you." He lets out a deep groan as your hand works him, making wet noises as you pump him fast. He watches with wide eyes, pupils dilated, as you bring your swollen lips back to his tip before taking him into your mouth again. 

“Fuck baby, just like that.” He grunts, head thrown back and book left forgotten on the couch beside him. Both his hands are now tangled in your hair as he guides you into a steady pace. His breathing is ragged and his legs are tense on either side of you. 

From the way his moans sound so desperate, you think he might be on the edge. You take him deeper, swirling your tongue around him until you can feel his legs trembling with pleasure. Your eyes are closed in concentration and you hear him take in a sharp breath, there’s a dull pain on your scalp as he tugs on your hair. 

Eddie’s hips begin to buck erratically, taking what he needs from your warm, wet mouth. You feel his balls growing taut in your hold. Your head bobs faster, taking him in shallow until he uses his hold on you to push you down onto him. Your throat constricts around his girth and you choke in surprise. 

You breathe through your nose, his musk filling the air and sending a tingle down your spine. With a loud yelp, he loses his control, cumming down your throat in thick spurts. You savor the taste of him as he pulls away from you, cum spreading over your tastebuds. 

He releases your hair and collapses onto the couch, his chest heaving as he comes down from his high. He eyes you, and the ghost of a content smirk plays on his lips. Eddie reached his hand to cup your cheek gently, his thumb wipes at the spend collecting in the corners of your vermouth and pushes it back in. 

You suck his thumb clean and sigh, finally able to get a full breath. 

“Did so good, baby, thank you,” Eddie praises, pulling his thumb from your mouth. 

Body racked with exhaustion, Eddie moves slowly to kiss you. Plush lips meet your own in something so soft and intimate it backes your eyes water. “Get up here and let me take care of you.” 

You shake your head, wanting to stay put between his legs. He looks at you confused, wondering why you wouldn’t want him to return the favor. 

“Wanna keep you in my mouth for a bit,” you explain shyly. Your oral fixation needed it. You craved to just sit there with the weight of him on your tongue. 

“Yeah? Then who am I to say no to you sweet girl?” Eddie adjusts how he’s setting, propping his back with a pillow for more support as he lays back and watches as you take his now-spent cock back into your mouth. 

You spend almost the next hour like that. Between his legs, head resting tiredly on his thigh with his cock settled on your tongue as he goes back to reading. Never had you been more content to be exactly where you were, content to be in his presence. Content to be his.

The German city of Hanover has turned off the heating and switched to cold showers in all public buildings because of the Russian gas crisis.

It's the first big city to turn off the hot water after Russia dramatically reduced Germany's gas supply.

Germans have been told to expect sweeping gas reduction measures and extra charges on their energy bills.

And the EU has agreed to lower demand for Russian gas this winter by 15%.

In a bid to save energy, Germany's northern city of Hanover has decided hot water will no longer be available for hand washing in public buildings, or in showers at swimming pools, sports halls and gyms.

Public fountains are also being switched off to save energy, and there will be no night-time lights on major buildings such as the town hall and museums.

Mayor Belit Onay said the goal was to reduce the city's energy consumption by 15% in reaction to an "imminent gas shortage" which posed a significant challenge for big cities.

The rules apply to heating, too. Public buildings will not have any heating from April to the end of September each year, with room temperatures limited to a maximum of 20C for the rest of the year - with some exemptions.

The city is also banning portable air conditioners, heaters and radiators.

The policy is in line with announcements from Berlin last week, as Germany races to build up its reserves ahead of the winter. Other cities - such as Augsburg in Bavaria - have already introduced their own measures such as turning off public fountains.

The 15% reduction target in Hanover matches the EU-wide goal to reduce reliance on Russian gas.

And on Thursday, Germany confirmed that a planned gas surcharge on customers could be much higher than previously expected, to try to ensure energy companies do not go bankrupt in the coming months. "We can't say yet how much gas will cost in November, but the bitter news is it's definitely a few hundred euros per household," said Economy Minister Robert Habeck.

Some reports said the levy could cost families an extra €500 (£420) a year.

Germany has long relied on Russian gas for its energy needs but has recently accused Russia of restricting the flow in retaliation for EU sanctions over the war in Ukraine - something Russia denies.

Russian gas supplies now account for about a quarter of the nation's needs, compared with more than half before the war.

Hot Choices: Navigating Water Heaters Repairs in Orange County

Electric water heaters offer safer installation and are a viable option when gas lines are unavailable or safety is paramount.. However, they may have slightly higher operating costs in Orange County.

Tank Top or On-Demand? Exploring Storage vs. Tankless

Traditional storage water heaters store hot water in a tank, ensuring immediate access but possibly wasting energy when idle. Regular maintenance, like flushing for sediment removal, is crucial for efficiency.

Tankless water heaters offer instant hot water, save energy, but have high upfront costs and may not suit big households.

Common Repairs for Each Warrior

Both gas and electric water heaters share some common repair needs:

When the heating part stops working, your water heater won’t produce hot water anymore because it’s the component that generates heat.

The pressure relief valve acts as a safety measure for your tank. It releases extra pressure to prevent explosions. If it’s malfunctioning, it could cause leaks or even damage the tank.

Leaks might happen from different spots in your water heater, like the tank, valves, or connections. It’s essential to repair them promptly to avoid water damage.

Remember: Although you may manage some basic fixes independently, it’s preferable to seek advice from a certified plumber in Orange County for more complex issues. They can identify the problem, propose the optimal solution, and guarantee safe repairs.

Reviewing Websites: Explore platforms such as Yelp, Angie’s List, or Google My Business to read customer reviews. Seek out companies with great ratings and consistent positive feedback.

Company Websites: Visit the company’s website to learn about their experience, services, and licenses.

Securing the Best Offer: Request quotes and ask essential questions to ensure you’re getting the best deal.

Don’t settle for the first company you find. Get quotes from several water heater repair Orange County companies. Here’s what to ask:

Ensure the company has prior experience with your water heater type (gas, electric, tank, or tankless).

Request a detailed pricing structure, covering hourly rates, diagnostic fees, and additional charges.

Ask about the warranty offered on repairs.

Extra Tip: If possible, inquire about upfront pricing to avoid surprises later on. This approach helps you steer clear of unexpected expenses after the service is completed.

DIY Water Heater Repair vs. Hiring a Professional

A defective water heater can leave you cold and stuck. It’s wiser to trust local water heater repair Oragne County experts rather than DIY internet fixes.

DIY Troubleshooting: Quick Checks

Before jumping into repairs, a few simple checks could do the trick. Here’s what you can do:

Check the thermostat: Low settings could cause no hot water.

Reset the circuit breaker: A tripped breaker may cut power to your electric water heater.

Safety First: Why DIY Might Not Be the Best Choice in Orange County

While basic checks are safe, going further can be risky. Orange County water heaters, especially gas models, involve intricate plumbing and electrical components. Here’s why DIY repairs could spell trouble:

Safety Risks: Gas leaks, electric shocks, and even explosions are potential dangers of improper DIY repairs on gas and electric water heaters.

Complications and More Damage: Without the right knowledge and tools, attempting repairs might worsen the problem, leading to pricier fixes later on.

No cold showers, especially in sunny weather You can prevent many water heater issues with proactive care. Here are some maintenance tips for hot water flow:

Flushing Away Trouble: Yearly flushing removes minerals and sediment, boosting water heater efficiency and extending its lifespan. Here in Orange County, schedule a yearly flush to remove this sediment:

Shut the water supply. Drain the tank via the shutoff valve. Connect the hose to the drain valve, direct flow to the drain, and open the valve to remove sediment.

Repeat until the water runs clear.

Close the drain valve and refill the tank. Once full, turn the water supply back on and bleed any trapped air from the hot water tap.

Testing: Checking the Pressure Relief Valve

This valve is a crucial safety feature that releases pressure to prevent tank explosions. Here’s how to test it (be prepared for some water discharge):

Find pressure relief valve on water heater. It’s typically a lever or a pipe with a discharge outlet.

Place a bucket under the discharge outlet to collect any water released.

Lift the lever on the valve briefly (or open the valve slightly if it’s a different design). Water should flow out momentarily.

Let go of the lever and ensure it closes securely.

Don’t wait for cold showers — act promptly! If problems arise, consult this guide and call a water heater repair Orange County plumber. They’ll diagnose accurately and restore hot water safely.

Maintaining Your Pool Heating System

Once you've invested in a pool heating system, it's important to keep it properly maintained to ensure optimal performance and longevity.

Regular Inspections

Schedule regular inspections of your pool heating system to check for any signs of damage or wear. Addressing issues early can help prevent costly repairs down the line.

Cleaning and Servicing

Keep your pool heating system clean and well-maintained by regularly cleaning filters, removing debris, and scheduling professional servicing as needed. This will help ensure that your system operates efficiently and effectively.

Seasonal Shutdown

When the swimming season comes to an end, be sure to properly shut down your pool heating system to prevent damage during the winter months. Follow manufacturer guidelines for winterizing your system to avoid costly repairs come spring.

Conclusion

Don't let cooler temperatures cut your swim season short. With the right pool heating system, you can enjoy your pool year-round, reaping the benefits of swimming and relaxation whenever the mood strikes.

Ensuring Comfort: The Importance of Hot Water Repairs

In the hustle and bustle of daily life, few things are as cherished and essential as a reliable supply of hot water. From soothing morning showers to washing dishes after a hearty family meal, hot water plays a crucial role in maintaining comfort and cleanliness in our homes. However, when your hot water system encounters issues, it can quickly disrupt your routine and leave you feeling cold and frustrated. This is where prompt and efficient hot water repairs come into play.

Understanding the Importance of Hot Water Repairs

Hot water systems are complex appliances with various components working together to provide the warmth we rely on daily. Like any other mechanical system, they require regular maintenance and occasional repairs to ensure optimal performance. Ignoring signs of trouble such as lukewarm water, strange noises, or leaks can lead to more significant issues down the line, potentially resulting in costly repairs or even premature replacement of the entire system.

Signs Your Hot Water System Needs Repairs

Inconsistent Temperature: Fluctuations in water temperature or insufficient heating can indicate problems with your hot water system.

Strange Noises: Unusual sounds such as banging, popping, or hissing coming from your water heater may signal issues like sediment buildup or a failing heating element.

Leaks: Any signs of water pooling around your hot water system should be investigated promptly, as they could indicate leaks in the tank or pipes.

Age of the System: As hot water systems age, they become more prone to wear and tear. If your system is nearing the end of its expected lifespan, it may be time to consider repairs or replacement.

The Importance of Professional Repairs

While DIY solutions may seem tempting, hot water systems are best handled by qualified professionals. Attempting repairs without the necessary expertise can not only worsen the problem but also pose safety risks due to the presence of electricity or gas in some systems. Professional plumbers have the knowledge, skills, and tools to diagnose issues accurately and implement effective repairs, ensuring your hot water is restored safely and efficiently.

Gas vs. Electric Pool Heater: Choosing the Right Option

When it comes to heating your pool, the decision between gas and electric pool heater can significantly impact your swimming experience. Each option comes with its own set of advantages and considerations, making it crucial to weigh the pros and cons before making a decision.

Efficiency and Cost-effectiveness

Gas Pool Heater

Gas pool heaters are known for their rapid heating capabilities, making them ideal for quickly warming up your pool, especially during colder months or evenings. They are highly efficient in heating large volumes of water, allowing you to enjoy your pool even when the weather is chilly.

While gas pool heaters are efficient, they can be more costly to operate compared to electric heaters. The cost of natural gas or propane needed to fuel these heaters can add up over time, especially if you frequently use your pool year-round.

Electric Pool Heater

On the other hand, electric pool heaters are praised for their energy efficiency and cost-effectiveness in the long run. Although they may take longer to heat the pool compared to gas heaters, they are more economical to operate, particularly in regions where electricity costs are relatively low.

Electric pool heaters utilize electricity to generate heat, eliminating the need for gas fuel and reducing the associated operating expenses. Additionally, they are environmentally friendly options, producing zero emissions during operation.

Installation and Maintenance

Gas Pool Heater

Installing a gas pool heater typically requires professional assistance due to the complexity of the system and the need for proper ventilation and gas line connections. Maintenance for gas heaters involves regular inspections, cleaning, and occasional repairs to ensure optimal performance and safety.

Electric Pool Heater

Electric pool heaters are generally easier to install compared to gas heaters, making them suitable for both residential and commercial pool owners. With fewer components and no gas lines to worry about, electric heaters can be installed quickly and with minimal disruption.

Maintenance for electric pool heaters is also relatively straightforward, requiring periodic cleaning and inspection of electrical components to prevent malfunctions and ensure efficiency.

Environmental Impact

Gas Pool Heater

Gas pool heaters rely on fossil fuels such as natural gas or propane, which contribute to carbon emissions and air pollution. While they provide fast and efficient heating, they are not the most environmentally friendly option available.

Electric Pool Heater

Electric pool heaters operate using electricity, which can be generated from renewable energy sources such as solar or wind power. By utilizing clean energy sources, electric heaters offer a more sustainable heating solution with minimal environmental impact.

Conclusion: Making the Right Choice

When deciding between a gas and electric pool heater, it's essential to consider your specific needs, budget, and environmental concerns. Gas heaters offer rapid heating capabilities but come with higher operating costs and environmental implications. Electric heaters, on the other hand, are more cost-effective and environmentally friendly but may require longer heating times.

Ultimately, the right choice depends on your preferences and priorities. Whether you prioritize speed, cost-effectiveness, or environmental sustainability, selecting the appropriate pool heater can enhance your swimming experience while minimizing your carbon footprint.
