The Mechanic- Kidd x F!Reader

Finally seeing more Kid during Wano, so I might as well write about him. Tbh, I was going to wait until I got my motorcycle license to write this idea but...I don't know when that's going to happen. I be so busy in the kitchen 😅 lol.

Anyway, first time writing a full piece with Kid, so let me know how this. Thanks so much for reading.

CW: black fem reader in mind, modern au, fluff, bubbly reader

Kid will begrudgingly admit it that he did not expect well...you when pulled your bike up for an oil change. You were new in town and had been looking all over the internet for a place to take your precious baby for a tune-up especially after having to leave your mechanic of three years.

He was fiddling with his own bike when he heard your engine cut off. He stood up and looked boredly as you parked and stood up to take your helmet off. Your hair was pushed back and covered in a silk scarf--preventing helmet hair. You looked a little bit nervous as you looked around before making eye contact. You gave him a small smile. "Hi, uh, I have an oil change appointment for Y/N."

He grunted before scribbling your name on a clipboard. "Put your number here." He didn't blther to wipe his hands and got a grease smudge on the paper and pen. You didn't seem to mind though. Kid checked you out a bit when you filled out a couple other forms. You seemed too...sweet...and innocent. There weren't a lot of biker babes in this area, but you definitely didn't fit the stereotype. Your bike was white and you had cat ear attachments on your helmet. Your riding gloves had heart-shaped cut. Your keys jingled, and there were probably three too many lanyards and charm attachments. Certainly those hit your leg when you rode. Kid assumed that you were a newbie who begged to get a motorcycle and would probably drop the hobby after the summer was over. He saw it a lot with all sorts of people (though typically older men who were trying to end a midlife crisis).

"Alright, you can go sit inside. Shouldn't take me too long." he grumbled after you handed the clipboard back. He placed the pen behind his ear.

"Okay! Thanks, take good care of her!" you giggled before heading inside.

Kid rolled his eyes. He was so tired of hearing that from people. He stood over by your bike and glanced at the odometer. His eyes shot wide for a sec. That was...definitely a lot more miles than he expected. You were definitely riding around for years now and probably during the colder months too. He gave a small grin. He'd give you a little more credit.

...

Instead it was another young man who wore a black leather jacket and certainly had an arrogant air about him. His eyes found yours, and he immediately grinned wolfishly. "Oh what a sweet thing you are. What are you doing here in a place like this?"

You rocked in your chair slightly as you looked around the shop space. It was small, and there wasn't a lot of décor really. There were some framed articles about the quality of service and pictures of an older gentleman when the shop had first opened. A bell rung from the door opening, and you turned expecting to see the mechanic from earlier.

You immediately knew where this conversation was going to go. Not many people expected a woman to be riding even during this day and age especially when you weren't always parading around in some fake rockabilly aesthetic. You've gotten your gender wrongfully assumed more times than you can count and had a few unpleasant interactions at the gas station.

You sighed and gave your best fake smile. "Just getting my bike looked at."

He grinned down at you. "Oh really? You should check out my ride some time. I can give you some pointers on driving and stuff."

You wanted to gagged at his offer. "I'm good."

"No need to be shy. There's a lot to learn. You can even practice on mine. I-,"

The bell rung again, and you were happy that the mechanic was back. You looked at the name patch on his shirt: Kid. He still had grease smudges on his face and sweat gathered where his goggles rested. "She's all done." Kid said before walking around to the counter. You stood in front--thankful to end the conversation. "Sweet. I'll-,"

"I'll take care of it, boss. What did the girl need? A simple oil change?" the dude injected himself chuckling while pulling out his wallet.

You didn't turn, but your body froze and you fidgeted with your hands a little. Kid looked at your for a moment before turning his attention to the guy. He shrugged. "Nah. Actually, I just had to replace her tires and engine--whole accident and all." He stared at the computer screen and typed on a few keys. "Definitely a couple grand or so..." Kid trailed off.

The man's face paled, and he ran a hand through his hair. "Uh well...I'll be back...but uh, don't go waiting for me too long." he then rushed out of the shop.

You chuckled, relieved that the man was gone. "Thanks," you reached to take off your backpack.

"Broke bitch," Kid grumbled. He hated guys who tried to show off and act like they knew what they were talking about just because they watched a couple of YouTube videos. Kid held out his hand. "And uh, don't worry about. First one's on the house."

You tilted your head. "Oh really? How nice. I was nervous when I first got here, but I've heard really good things about this place. Thanks so much!" you beamed.

Kid's face reddened slightly, and he shook his head. "I'm just keeping this place together with my old man wandering around in retirement."

You nodded your head. "Well I'm sure you're doing a great job."

Kid paused for a bit before grabbing a random piece of paper and scribbling on it. "Uh, your bike's in really good shape, and 's better than most I come across. There's a bike show a county over happening next week. You should check it out. Show her off and stuff."

You looked over the paper. "Oh how cool! I've been meaning to see if there's any nearby. I'll definitely check it out!" you folded the paper and placed in your pocket. "Will you be going?"

"Huh?"

You laughed brightly. "Well you're the one who told me about it. We should go together! I don't know that many people here, and it'd be nice to hang with an expert."

Kid scratched his head while leaning a bit. "Uh...sure." he plucked out a card from a drawer. "This has my cell on it. Just give me a call." he then handed your keys over. "Be safe out there."

"I will! Thanks, Kid. I look forward to our date!" you then walked out the shop and out of his sight.

Kid stared out the window where you just were. ....A date? He blushed.

~~~

And scene. I definitely like a Kid who stands up to assholes especially cocky ones. Sweaty buff Kid is a sight to imagine. I just know he's putting in work all day and in his element.

Thanks for reading!

Part 1

─── ･ ｡ﾟ☆: *.☽ .* :☆ﾟ. ───

Downtown had changed drastically since Steve and Y/n had lived there; newer stores replacing the old antique shops and chain restaurants popping up all over. Soon, Hawkins would probably have it’s very own Harrington Jeweler’s.

Y/n knew exactly what Steve meant by the body shop, it was the only place to get any service done to your car within 15 miles. The old man that Y/n knew to run the place was known as Mr. Burke.

When she pulled up into the parking lot, a few men smoking outside in their navy blue jumpsuits stood up and directed her into a bay.

“Well, well, well, I was wondering if I’d be seeing you!” Gareth Emerson smiled as she shut the shiny blue door. Y/n’s jaw dropped at the familiar face.

“Oh my god, hi! Wow!” She said in a flustered chuckle, opening her arms to return the hug he extended to her.

“Look at you all grow’d up and married! Mrs. Harrington.” He teased as he released her and walked around the side of the car, a low whistle flying from his lips. “Damn… so someone key’d you, huh?” He asked, bending down and rubbing his finger against the scrape to see how deep it went with a disappointed tsk.

Y/n shrugged, “I guess so. It’s Steve’s, it happened while we were still in Connecticut.” She shrugged. Gareth’s brows drew together for a moment before nodding.

“Well, uh, anything else I can take a look at?” He asked, rounding the other side of the car and preparing to pop the hood as Y/n nodded.

“I believe we’re due for an oil change.” She shrugged. Gareth nodded and his eyes flickered to the office that sat in the corner, an idea coming to him.

“Uh, why don’t you go wait in the office, have a seat and I’ll, uh, send—him— in a-and I’ll get this started for you.” He offered. Y/n smiled warmly and nodded, thanking him.

She opened the office door, a small desk littered with receipts, estimates, business numbers, and a few coffee cups sat with a few chairs surrounding it along the wall. She chose to sit right across from the desk to speak to Mr. Burke, keeping her legs crossed and her hands on her knee.

She wondered if Gareth still talked to Eddie. If he’d think to mention their meeting and if Eddie would even care.

She could hear mumbling come from the outside of the door, sounding rushed and delivered with a bite. She worried she wasn’t supposed to be in here, that she’d gotten Gareth in trouble. But then the door opened almost timidly.

Eddie stepped in with a sigh, closing the door briskly behind him and bounding over to the desk without sparing her a glance. “Hi.” He said coldly, his voice low and finally looking up to her face though it didn’t last long. He plopped down in his seat, busying himself. His mouth stayed tense, keeping his lips pressed together as if to keep himself from saying more than what he was.

Y/n’s hands shook. Her palms prickled with sweat that she rubbed away on her jeans. “Eddie.” She managed, finally looking at him and seeing the unspoken words behind them, though she couldn’t tell what they were dying to say. “I—I didn’t know you—“

“—Didn’t think so.” He said with a sigh as he continued to clean up the papers, placing them into untidy piles in the paper trays of his desk.

“So, you got a rear quarter panel that needs sanded down and repainted, but other than that your oils getting changed now.“ he said, his customer service voice obviously on but diminished by his flat tone. He reached for his note pad and the book that contained the lists of different jobs and how many hours to charge for his painter and the oil change.

“H-How long til the job—“

“It’ll be ready to pick up tomorrow evening. But, your, uh, husband’s gonna have to come pick you up. Gotta leave it overnight.” He said without looking up, finishing adding up his numbers and ripping the invoice out to slide over to her. He stood from his seat, still not looking at her face on his way to the door.

“Don’t call him that.” She heard herself mumble.

Eddie froze and turned to her slowly, his brows pinched. “What do you expect me to call him? That’s who he is to you.” He said with less emotion than before.

She shook her head and stood, taking a tentative step towards him as he stepped back against the door, grimacing at himself for the crack in his facade.

After she realized he wasn’t going anywhere she spoke again, “Steve is Steve. No different than he’s always been.” She shrugged, looking at the floor. Though she didn’t know, Eddie now saw the sadness surrounding her and her words.

“What does that mean?” He asked softly, wishing she’d look back up at him so he could allow himself to properly look at her face as his heart hammered wildly in his chest. If he wasn’t holding onto the rags stuck in his pockets so tightly his hands would be shaking.

Y/n fumbled with the gold rings on her left hand, twisting them as she debated her response. That was when Eddie saw it. He surprised them both when he reached out between them to pick up her right hand and observe the silver class ring of ‘61.

She looked up at him with a gasp and spotted the silver chain around his neck. No matter how badly she wanted to move, she couldn’t will herself to reach out and touch it.

“The only way Steve and I are bound to each other… is by law and last name…Nothing else.” She stated before looking up at him to meet his eyes that now expressed one thing clearly. Longing.

“Where is he?” He whispered, keeping his gentle grip on the tips of her fingers, neither of them daring to move.

“I haven’t seen Steve in almost two weeks. He’s always… here and there—I don’t blame him. Things are weird when we’re both at the house. Like two strangers waiting on everyone they have in common to show up to the party.” She confessed, her eyes on his hand on hers.

“Y-You don’t—I’m sorry I shouldn’t—but has Steve—“ Eddie struggled, scrunching his eyes closed. Eddie had known Steve was coming in for some work, but he had no idea he’d send Y/n.

“—Steve hasn’t ever touched me.” She blurted, her cheeks red in embarrassment. Eddie’s eyes widened which only made it worse for Y/n who shook her head, “I’m so sorry. I-I don’t know why I-I said that, that was c-completely out of line—“

Eddie cut her rambling off by pulling her hand to wrap her arm around his neck and bringing her lips to his by holding her face tenderly. Y/n eagerly caught on, devouring his kiss as fast as he could serve them to her. She threw her other arm around him where it always belonged.

They both soon turned into gasping and whining messes, refusing to stop touching one another. Eddie tangled his fingers in the back of her hair, rubbing the strands between his fingers and savoring the feeling.

She smelled different now—she felt different. But not too far different than before, her hips widening and thickening over the last years. She was still his Y/n, but more decandent to hold. After a few moments he began speaking against her lips as he pulled her closer by her waist.

“I’ve tried… for so long, baby… I couldn’t forget you… no one could make me feel the things you do.” He mumbled through kisses.

“Eddie…” she preened, tears welling up at the warmth he wrapped around her. “I’ve never stopped—“ she let out a quiet mewl, her knees buckling as he licked into her mouth with his tongue, tracing her top lip slowly.

He braced himself against the door, allowing her to lean into him, welcoming it. “I got you, baby, c’mere.” He whispered, pulling her down to the floor of his office to sit on his lap. As she hastily sat down, Eddie reached up to lock the door knob without taking his eyes off her.

His eyes wandered all over her now that he allowed himself to. He reached his hands out to cup her jaw and stroke her cheek bones. “How long will you be here?” He asked.

“I’m stay—we’re staying. I’m just home a lot.” She explained, holding his hands to her face so he couldn’t let go even if he wanted to. “He’s always at work?” He asked with a raised eyebrow, wondering what Harrington’s angle was.

Y/n looked at Eddie knowingly and shook her head. Eddie sighed and took his hand away, “So you’re here cause you’re lonely?” The emotion fleeing from his voice.

“No, no, it isn’t like that! I had no idea you worked here—“

“I own here—this, this place. It’s mine.” He fumbled with a nod of finality. Y/n’s eyes widened with pleasant surprise.

“Eddie, really? That’s amazing!” She cooed from his lap just like old times. “I should’ve pegged you for a future business owner back in high school—busting ass every chance you could. I’m really proud of you.” She said, her heart swelling with warmth and feeling the most alive she has in the last four years.

Eddie looked between her eyes and nodded, “You always did make me feel like I was going big places.” He chuckled, the light fading from his eyes after he thought for a bit. “You really didn’t know, did you?”

Y/n shook her head. “Steve asked me to bring his car in, told me he made an appointment—“

“He did! I—I picked up the phone when he called…” Eddie said, his eyes still roaming all over her as if she’d vanish into thin air.

Y/n crinkled her brows together in confusion. “Did—did he know it was you?”

Eddie nodded, “Uh, yeah, like, almost immediately. Told me he’d send someone to bring it in. I didn’t think it was gonna be you though. Honestly, if I knew it was I… I probably wouldn’t have come in today.” He shrugged. Y/n carefully placed her hand on his cheek, her heart melting when he leaned into it.

“I think he might actually be warming up to me.” She mentioned, Eddie finally cracked a smile, the sight bringing on her own. Eddie watched, captivated by the way her lips stretched back to reveal her dazzling smile, the one he dreamt of all this time. Her eyes crinkled just a little more at the sides from the years of solitude and stress. He traced her face the way he always did and ached at the tear that rushed down her face at the affection.

“Remind me to send him a fruit basket.” Eddie joked, smiling wider when he heard her laugh.

“S-So neither of you care at all? Not even a little?” He asked, the softness of his eyes returning as he traced her jaw, sending a shiver down her spine. She shook her head and shrugged.

“I think for both of us the other is just a reminder of how trapped we are. But, uh, w-we figured out a loophole, so to speak.” She chuckled. Eddie cocked his head in question, not having to say any words before Y/n explained.

“Steve..” she began with a bashful giggle, “—really likes… strippers!” She lost it at the way Eddie’s eyes practically fell out of his sockets.

“Don’t tell me Harrington is getting hustled by strippers.” Eddie groaned gravely, thinking back to an incident Gareth got himself into a few years back.

Y/n shook her head with a smile, “No, no—that’s the thing, they’re like his little girlfriends. He takes them out, buys them stuff, calls them late at night just to chit-chat. Sometimes when he thinks I’ve gone to sleep, I can hear him down in the kitchen giggling on the phone with them.” She chuckled wryly.

Eddie offered her a sympathetic half smile, unsure if this was an admission of jealousy. Y/n sensed this and placed her hand on his cheek comfortingly. “It made me sad because I know what it feels like to do those things with someone you… really like. I missed having someone that was mine, you know?”

After a moment he nodded and placed his hand over hers. “Yeah, I do.” He said, not ready to touch on the many nights he spent watching his friends take their girlfriends out, listening to them giggle on the phone and taking forever to hang up, and all the other sweet intimacies in a relationship turning sour in his mouth when he couldn’t experience them with the girl he wished to love.

Her eyes turned soft as she finally gained the courage to reach out and hook her finger under his necklace and tug it out of his shirt, the dainty initial still hanging. She smiled at it.

“‘M still yours.” He whispered, leaning closer to take her lip between his when the phone on the desk rang. “—Fuck.” He sighed, the two of them clamoring to their feet, the moment they separated feeling so bare without being wrapped around each other.

Eddie answered the call, “Munson’s” he turned to her as he listened to the ear piece, a glimmer in his eye as a smirk tugged at his lips. Eddie chuckled and glanced at Y/n again as the voice spoke into his ear. “Yeah, I got her right here.” He covered the mouthpiece and stepped over to her. “It’s, uh, for you.” He said, the familiar tease in his tone. Y/n looked to him suspiciously as she took the phone from him.

“Hello?”

“Hey, L/N.” Steve said with a hint of amusement in his voice.

“Steve?” She asked, looking to Eddie whose brows were raised, his eyes telling her he knew more than she did.

“Y’know, I got worried when you hadn’t called me yet to thank me for your gift.” He said, the boyish lilt in his voice taking her back to their small exchanges when they were close to being friends. “I didn’t interrupt anything, did I?”

Y/n scoffed, tears beginning to well up again at Steve’s gesture. She looked into Eddie’s eyes as she answered, “Maybe just a bit…” Eddie leaned against the table next to her, the questioning look on his face hiding the amusement he felt.

“Yeah, well, I was just calling to check in. Make sure my plan didn’t backfire. Also just reminding you the house will be empty tonight, so you should invite a friend over! I know how you get lonely.” He said teasingly, a blush rushing to her cheeks that Eddie found adorable, reaching out and brushing it with his hand absentmindedly.

Y/n nodded, “This might be the best gift you could’ve given me.”

Steve chuckled, “Yeah, well, I never got you anything for the wedding so consider us even.”

“Steve, I got you a pen, this isn’t exactly setting us even.”

“It’s my favorite pen! I use it every day at work. Anyway, give the phone to Munson, I have a dinner date to get to and you have a man to entertain, so I’m gonna call you tomorrow.” He said easily.

“Okay, see ya, Steve.” She smiled.

“Take care.” Steve sighed as he heard the scuffle of the phone being handed over.

Eddie greeted Steve again, listening intently.

“Munson! Take care of our girl, alright?”

Eddie chuckled, looking out the blinds of his office to view the car with an oil pan sitting beneath it, Gareth working away at taking the panel off the car. “Yeah, man, she’s getting worked on right now…” before a surprised snort fell from him. “Oh, y-yeah. I’ll take good care of her for you, Mr. Harrington.” Eddie teased as his dark eyes scanned her questioning face.

Steve chuckled and hung up the phone, exhaling deeply and pressing the heels of his palms into his eyes with a groan. “Oh, god I’m so glad that’s over. I’ve been dying to get them back together.”

“I think its real sweet of you to do that for her, Stevie.” Delilah cooed, running her fingers through his hair and sitting down on his lap. His hands came up to roam her bare thighs, the two of them already grinding onto one another.

“Least I could do—she’s been looking the other way for a long time—every time I come see you—just wants me to be happy.” He pressed his face into the woman’s neck, inhaling the deep and musky scent of the Polo cologne she’d doused herself with before work.

“You must love each other so much—“

“Absolutely not.” He scoffed. “If I loved her would I send her into the arms of her lost love? C’mon, Lilah, you know I can’t stay away from you, baby.” The two smiled at each other.

“Y’know they’re gonna catch on that you keep booking all my privates, baby.” She giggled as Steve hooked his fingers under her g string, squeezing the satisfying plush of her ass.

“I’m a paying customer darling, the only way they can kick me outta here is if you give the say so, yeah?” He asked, gently sticking some bills into the band of her bra and feeling his member harden as she licked a strip from his collar to his ear to whisper, “I’ll do whatever Stevie wants.”

Steve groaned and threw his head back against the velvet headrest. “Whatever I want?” He gasped as her hand slid down his front and palmed him where he needed it most.

“Anything, baby.” She cooed earnestly. Steve’s generous tips quickly got her out of a seedy situation, his kind heart and listening ear showing her he wasn’t a regular man. The girl soon latching onto him for more than just financial support. Steve took care to call her every night he didn’t go home with her after her shift to make sure she got home safely.

“I just wanna watch you dance, will you do that for me?” He asked, his heated whisper in her ear sending sparks down her core. She smiled and nodded. “You’re a really good guy, Stevie. I think I might just fall in love with you..” She turned to the stereo on the wall, pressing play before she reached out to hook her leg around the pole.

─── ･ ｡ﾟ☆: *.☽ .* :☆ﾟ. ───

After the phone call with Steve, Eddie and Y/n couldn’t help but pull each other close again, reveling in their first real hug after four years. Eddie caught the smell of her hair, his heart aching at the difference and how sweet it was.

“That was the first time I’ve ever talked with Steve where he made me feel like… I dunno. Like we’re friends?”

Eddie chuckled, “What else did he have to say?” His hands roaming her back with nervous energy, unable to keep still.

“He was just reminding me that the house would be empty tonight…” she said simply, her eyes finding his. Eddie’s eyes widened in surprise.

“Oh, really now?” He asked, trying to keep his nerve.

She nodded, “Mhm. He also told me… that I should… invite a friend over… that he knows I get lonely.” She stared at his lips longingly, hoping he wouldn’t make her ask outright. The whole situation felt backwards enough.

A smile spread across Eddie’s face, you know the one. The smile that sent her back in time yet again to think of every time he greeted her at school, or when she’d compliment him and he had no idea how to accept it. “‘S funny because when I talked to him he asked me to make sure I took good care of his wife… make sure I saw you got home safely.” He stroked her face and neck in his hands, a deep breath drawing in and out of her at his touch.

“Still need that ride?” He asked, his throat suddenly dry. Y/n nodded eagerly, smiling so widely her cheeks hurt at the prospect of having him all to herself, everything she’d ever dreamt of since they’d been apart.

He leaned down and quickly kissed her lips three times before he walked briskly to the office door, grabbing his keys off the wall before stepping out and hollering to Gareth across the shop, “I’m cutting out early, gonna take Mrs. Harrington home. After you finish sanding and priming you’re good to go, man.”

Gareth called something in response as Eddie chuckled and rolled his eyes, turning back to Y/n who had her arms crossed over her chest, biting the inside of her cheek in embarrassment. “What? ‘S your name now, huh?” He smirked, sending her a wink before he held his hand out for her.

Y/n quickly accepted it, yelping quietly when he tugged her to him, quickly taking her face in his hands and kissing her tenderly. She threw her arms around his neck and pushed up on her tip toes to return it with urgency. She could feel him smiling against her, his lips still feeling like they were made to fit with hers.

“C’mon, Munson, I’ll even make you some dinner.” She mumbled against him before he groaned lustfully, “Oh, keep talking, baby, tell me all the things you wanna do for me.” He joked while still kissing her. She couldn’t help but giggle against him as he moved his kisses to be sprinkled all over her sweet face.

─── ･ ｡ﾟ☆: *.☽ .* :☆ﾟ. ───

The whole ride home felt like high school again. Eddie had bought himself a new truck when the business began to right itself, managing to dig them out of debt when he bought the place. His tape collection was better organized in the glovebox instead of scattered in the floor of the van like old times.

“Tell me everything.” She asked.

So he did; After she left, he’d thrown himself into work and school, going as far as to push the band and Hellfire to the back burner to focus. He managed to make his last school year the best one he’d had academically—finishing with all Bs and one A (in machine shop). He likes to say he was ‘almost an honor student’

He still lives at the trailer park, though in his own trailer next to Wayne. “I wouldn’t feel right living anywhere else, no matter how much that pains me to say.” He joked. “I just couldn’t be away from Wayne after, uh everything…” He quietly trailed off as he pulled into the Harrington driveway.

Y/n reached over to hold his hand, which he gratefully accepted, placing a kiss on the back of hers. “Y’know he had to talk me out of going to Connecticut a couple times?” He asked.

Y/n’s eyes shot open, “What?” She gasped. He nodded, almost with embarrassment.

“Yeah, I know. I just knew… you weren’t happy. I knew you’d be alone—that he wouldn’t… take good care of you… like I would..” he said, tracing his eyes over her features etched in shock. “Wayne worried I’d get there and you’d be all loved up and I’d… I dunno exactly what he thought I’d do, but the thought of it was scary enough. So I stayed here.” He shrugged.

Y/n leaned over wrapped her arms around him. “I can’t tell you how many times I packed a bag.” She whispered. Eddie’s breath ceased. “I wanted to come back to you. But I was scared you’d found someone else.”

Eddie sighed. “Well… there was a couple times I tried relationships, probably a year after you left. And it was so hard. And weird. None of them felt… uh, real?” He thought for a moment and shook his head. “So then I thought ‘maybe I’m not a relationship guy’ Y’know? Tried one night stands and they weren’t great either. It always felt like something was missing.” He said over her shoulder as he played with her hair, their embrace never ending.

“What was it?” She asked softly.

Eddie chuckled, “Hard to love when your hearts in Connecticut, don’t you think?” He brushed his lips over her shoulder, tingles raining down after he planted a kiss there.

The sun had set and the sky had filled with black. The moon illuminated the sparse clouds that lingered, and the stars shown brightly. When Y/n opened the door, Eddie let out a low whistle at the vast difference in the homes decor since he’d last set foot in it.

“Looks nice. Way better now!” He complimented, slipping off his shoes and unbuttoning his coveralls as he stood on the mat. Y/n watched him patiently with a smile, unable to completely grasp that this was Eddie and he was here.

His head was on a swivel, taking it all in. He remembered the ivory and pastel disaster the place used to be, but now a darker color palette covered the place, warm lighting brightening everything up. He smiled at the green she chose and the floral wallpaper that covered the walls.

“Thanks, I’ve had a lot of time to figure it out,” She took his hand and helped him step out of his pant legs, “Turns out housewives can only have a few hobbies. I’ve tried them all; decorating, cooking, baking, shopping, drinking—“

Y/n took a step in the direction of the kitchen as she spoke, but Eddie turned her to face him with a look of concern. “Drinking?” He asked.

Y/n looked between his eyes while still holding onto his hand with both of hers. “Y-Yeah. Not a lot anymore though. Wasn’t for me.” She shrugged. Eddie relaxed and nodded caressing her face for good measure.

Y/n wanted to show Eddie the ‘housewife treatment’ she’d spent years curating, though she had no one to pamper in the way her mother and Steve’s had prepared her for.

“So, uh, what are you in the mood for?” She asked, alluding to dinner, making another move towards the kitchen. Eddie had no appetite for food, he couldn’t possibly eat in a time like this; reunited with the love of his life in the house it all began for them, all alone with nothing left keeping them apart.

He quickly pulled her back to him, holding her by the waist, and burying his face in her neck. “I can only think of this.” He pressed a savory kiss to the crook of it. She practically melted against him before turning around.

“I-I promised you dinner—“

“–Make me breakfast?” he asked in a whisper against her ear that sent her keening for him. She quickly attached her mouth to his neck, savoring his quiet moans as she ran her hands over him.

“Come to my room?” She pulled away from him, taking hold of one of his hands and leading him to the staircase. He followed her, his eyes unmoving from hers until she turned around and began to hurry up the stairs.

Eddies heart hammered in excitement, the whole scene was thrilling. As they ran up the steps, he watched their hands between them and didn’t resist the urge to lean forward and press a kiss to her knuckles. Unable to stop there, he turned over her hand and sprinkled more into her palm. She giggled in delight as they reached the landing, turning to him and throwing her arms around him before he could reach the top step, both at the same level. Her eyes sparkled like it was any other night of theirs back in ‘86. She was a dream. The dream. The only girl he’d dreamt of since he first saw her.

And she wanted him, too... After all this time.

She pulled him to her by his cheeks, giggling like children as their lips collided, kissing for the sake of kissing and taking their time. Eddie caressed her body, stopping at her ass and pulling her to him firmly with a grunt as he climbed the last step.

“This doesn’t feel real…” he panted against her before kissing her again, walking wherever she led him.

“You want me to pinch you?” She joked against his lips, a chuckle rippling through both of them as she glided her fingers down his body and wrapped them around his belt loops, pulling him into the open bedroom.

Once through the threshold they pawed at one another mercilessly, already reaching the farthest they’ve ever gone within minutes of entering the home. Y/n was the first to move, peeling off her sweater and tossing it carelessly to the side before grabbing Eddie’s shirt desperately.

“Ohhh my god…” he groaned at the sight, stumbling backwards onto the bed as she raised his shirt. He finished taking it off, connecting their skin immediately by pulling her onto his lap and laying back, groaning again, almost sounding like he was in pain.

“My beautiful girl..” he shook his head, a whirlwind of emotions swelling within him. He took her chin in his hands and looked at her, “Stevie’s had friends to play with, but who’s played with you, baby?” He cooed, squeezing her cheeks to make her lips pout.

How could she tug on his heart strings and arouse him at the same time?

“Nobody.” She whispered. Eddie softly gasped in shock even though he was so pleased.

“You mean to tell me while Steve’s been having whoever he wants and you haven’t had anybody?” He whispered in her ear, lightly grazing his fingers down her sides to make her shiver.

“I didn’t want anybody, Eddie.” She whispered in response, his hips bucking up against hers at the admission.

“Oh... I’m gonna take such good care of you..” He practically whined as he rolled them over. “You’ve been such a good girl for me, haven’t you?” He wasted no time in tracing her lips with his tongue, easing inside when she opened her mouth to oblige him.

He kept his weight on his knees that rested on either side of her, taking the straps of her bra down before sliding his hands behind her and unhooking it. He grabbed the front center of it and pulled it off her body, her tits springing free for moment before he was on them, hands and mouth.

She cried out in ecstasy, her arms grabbing him and holding his face close to her chest, her eyes falling closed as he began to lick around her nipples.

She gasped sharply when he began to suck, moaning when he pinched and rolled her nipple in the other. He released it with a juicy pop, finally giving into the temptation to look at her.

“Baby.. as much as I love that I get to touch you right now,” he began, unbuttoning her Levi’s, “Harrington is a dumbass for not seeing what’s right in front of him.” He backed off the bed and pulled her jeans off carefully, running his hands all over the slopes and curves of her legs.

Her heart fluttered when he laid gentle kisses on her ankle and knee, deepening them when he reached her mid thigh. He looked at her as he opened her knees and continued his kisses along her inner thigh.

Y/n thought she could die just at the way he looked at her. Like she was something worth worshipping. And to Eddie, she was.

“I’ve never wanted him to.” She uttered as he inched closer to her core. He nipped at the plump flesh an inch away from her heat. “Oh, my GOD, Eddie!” She cried.

“Don’t stop, baby, I wanna hear every little thing.” He said before hooking his fingers under her panties and pulling them down swiftly, a yelp coming from her beneath him. He chuckled madly as he crawled back over her, drunk on the image of her naked beneath him. “I’ve been dreaming of you since the day you left.” He strained his cock pressed against his pants, but before he could relieve himself, her hand reached up gently to grasp the outline of him.

“Tell me about them.” She whispered lowly in his ear as stroked him. He shuddered, putting his hands down on the mattress next to her head as he watched her hand rub against him. He gently rocked himself against her hand, the pressure already relieving but the fire was only being fueled. Ghosts of moans slipped from his lips, his eyes finally coming back to meet hers.

“Hmmm… they vary..” he said breathlessly. “Sometimes I’m balls deep in you, but I can’t see your face—but I know it’s you. Cause you—say my name.” He strained as she squeezed him a bit. “Oth-Other times I’m driving you somewhere and you’re laughing and the windows are down—“ his words broke off as she used her other hand to toy with his waistband and continued her strokes deeper to his balls.

Her eyes were soft and watery, sharing similar visions in her head when she found herself disdained by her false life, which was often. She smiled in satisfaction as he melted against her, burying his face in her neck. “Let me… let me take care of you first, baby… please.” He urged before using this as an excuse to kiss down her soft angelic body, taking care to nip her every once in a while to feel her writhe.

Soon he was back nestled between her legs, her cunt warm and inviting. He brought his hand up to trace her hip bone, sliding over to find her clit. She shuddered at the new roughness of his hands, catching the tops of them under her own just to feel him move as he touched her.

He pressed his thumb into her bud gently, a sultry groan flying from her. Eddie hummed out a chuckle, his cockiness kicking in. “Yeah? ‘S that good?” He asked almost mockingly as he started slow circles, spreading her wetness.

“So good…” she moaned out.

“This gotcha goin’, huh? I bet I could make you cum if I kept this up for a bit.” He said as he sped up. She nodded wildly and cried out, bucking her hips and chasing the sweet high he was building within her. Her mouth ran dry with the tingles that crawled up her throat.

He took his finger away, slipping his arms under her legs to hook them over his shoulders, squeezing them in his hands roughly as he adjusted them and kissed her inner thigh sloppily as she whined in both anguish and pleasure. “I don’t wanna make you cum like that though—got years of making up to do.” He mumbled before pressing his open mouth to her slit, immediately suckling and mouthing at the space between her opening and her clit.

“Ohh-ho-ho-my GOD— Unhh!” She cried, hot tears stinging at the outer corners of her eyes as she threw her head back and clenched Eddie’s roots in her hands. She couldn’t believe how mind-numbingly wonderful it was to have a man’s mouth between her legs, the white hot fire rendering her powerless the longer his tongue lapped at her cunt.

“Yeah, tell me about it, pretty girl.” He mumbled against her. “OHH—it’s so good—You’re so good. I-I-I’ve always imagined—ungh, but I never knew it’d feel like this—“

She tensed, holding her breath at the overwhelming cocktail of sensations swirling around in her tummy all at once. Eddie squeezed her flesh as he pulled his lips away from her bud, rubbing soothing circles into the tops of her thighs. “Hey, hey, baby, breathe, relax into it, the more you fight it the more uncomfortable it’ll be.” He cooed before kissing around her lips, keeping his eyes on her face until her brows relaxed.

“Good, girl.” He cooed, licking a quick stripe up her clit that made her jerk. He chuckled lowly. “—knew you’d like that.”

Y/n’s legs squirmed around him, though he didn’t mind—not one bit. He nuzzled his cheek into her thigh, placing a peck there before looking up at her and noticing her eyes were open again, watching him. He smiled warmly and leaned forward. “Baby, can you do something for me?” He whispered, catching her drifting hand and placing a kiss to it as she nodded.

“I want you to rub those pretty tits for me. Can you do that? It’ll make you feel so good while I eat your pussy.” He cooed in the smoothest voice. Y/n’s breath caught before she managed to nod, knowing she’d try anything Eddie asked.

“But really, I just wanna watch you.” He whispered.

Y/n sat herself up and began to massage her tits while maintaining eye contact with him, locking him under her spell as soon as she showed an ounce of confidence.

“Ohh, my sweet girl…yeah, that’s it—and play with your nipples too, just like that.” He purred as he lowered his face back to her cunt. Y/n’s hips rolled against him without a care, pornographic moans falling from her open mouth. Eddie’s sparkling brown eyes watched the show, trying not to bust in his shorts the longer he stayed between her legs. He reached his middle and index fingers up to her mouth, dragging her bottom lip down until it bounced back up, her eyes meeting his.

It was as if they shared the same thought, her lips opening wider as he slid his fingers in. Her cunt clenched around nothing and her brows drew together at the satisfying taste of his skin on her tongue. She closed her eyes and moaned around his digits as she sucked, holding onto his wrist desperately like he’d take it away to be cruel.

She could feel Eddie groan into her folds before pulling his face away. “Ooh, dirty girl, huh? Just how filthy are you?” He asked before pulling his hand from her lips. She whined in protest, opening her eyes as she practically pouted at him. He pooched his bottom lip out mockingly as he leaned up from her lap, using the same two fingers to tilt her chin up.

“C’mere—I want you to see how sweet you taste…” he said just before his lips met hers in a hungry kiss. She eagerly licked into his mouth, her brain short-circuiting at the sweet and tangy essence left over in his mouth along with his usual taste. His tongue prodded gently at hers, wiggling and slipping against one another as he practically fed her juices back to her before parting again.

Y/n took a gasping breath as he sank back down to her weeping cunt, kissing around her clit and lips before he resumed lapping at her. Y/n voiced her surprise when she felt his fingers at her entrance, sliding in easily and making long and slow strokes. “Jesus—oh, you’re so wet. And tight. Oh my god, you’re gonna feel so good stretched around me, baby..” his forehead rested against her hip, focusing on preparing her to take him.

“My pretty, pretty girl… just look at you…” He began rubbing his thumb over her clit again, thrusting his fingers in and out slowly as he rut his hips against the mattress and suppressed a grunt at the way her cunt swallowed him.

“Talk to me, honey, how are you feeling?” He asked, her brows scrunched back together as she palmed at her breasts. Her hips writhed against him rhythmically, her body moving almost like a dance— a wonderful dance.

“Ohhh, Eddie… baby I think I’m gonna cum!” She cried as the tension rose in her stomach, the knot igniting and stretching. Eddie eagerly dove down to her clit and began suckling at it as he plunged his fingers in, curling them as he worked them in and out, nodding his head and humming his encouragement against her.

“That’s my girl, that’s my girl—let me hear it, give it to me, baby.” He urged, muffled against her heat.

“EddieEddieEddieEddieEDDIE-HE-HE!” She cried, Eddie used his free arm wrapped under her leg to restrict her hips from thrusting too wildly as she rode out her orgasm. Like a gun going off, a balloon popping, a rubber band snapping, Y/n was thrown head first into a white hot pit of pleasure, melting down into a boiling puddle and floating away with the steam.

Eddie groaned rapturously as her wetness gushed around and into his mouth, practically sucking it from her like a sated vampire. Tears ran down her face as her spotted vision returned to normal, her hips slowing as did his mouth’s intensity. His hand massaged her abdomen up and down as his lips parted from hers, crawling up to cage her in with his arms and leaning in close for a few sticky sweet kisses as the haze cleared in her head.

“How was it?” He asked, quietly fighting for his breath. Y/n panted the same, a couple more stray tears sliding down her face before she wiped her cheeks.

She shook her head, “I felt like… like if I reached out I would’ve touched heaven.”

Eddie chuckled before kissing her jaw and whispering, “I touched and tasted heaven.”

Y/n lazily rolled her head to meet his lips, teeth and tongues clashing as she surprised them both and rolled on top of him. “Mmm—My turn.” She mumbled into his kiss. Eddie’s hands flew to her back, stroking her up and down, the warmth of her soft skin like velvet in his hands.

Y/n reached down between them and unbuttoned his jeans, daringly pulling his boxers down with them. Eddies cock sprang out of his jeans with a slap against his happy trail. Y/n hadn’t seen his dick before, though she’d definitely felt it when she’d sat on his lap the few times they’d gotten to fool around back in the day.

She’d even made sure her vibrator was a similar size to Eddie, spending many lonely nights practically crying for him as she came. She’d spent so much time regretting her hesitance to be sexual, wishing she’d dropped to her knees the moment he invited her into the back of his van alone. She’d imagined the weight of his dick on her tongue, the saltiness of his skin, the pinkness of his tip.

“I-Is there anything I can’t do?” She asked without looking away from his member. Eddie chuckled, his hand finding her hair as she shifted forward eagerly.

“No, baby, I want you to—fucking Christ, suck my soul out of my dick and keep it, why don’t you, holy fuck.” He hissed out, when he felt her hollow her cheeks around him. Her mouth was so warm and wet, her tongue wiggling around him every once in a while as she bobbed at an even pace.

“Ohhh my god—I’ve always wanted you to do this, not gonna lieeee.” His voice heightened as he tried to keep himself together, suddenly not so cool anymore. Y/n giggled and then hummed in satisfaction, taking him deeper. Eddie’s legs squirmed a bit before he opened them wider for her, trying to refrain from bucking and interrupting the best blowjob he’s ever received.

“Th-There’s no way you h-haven’t done this before, baby—hungh!” He broke down. Y/n released his tip with a pop, holding his length in her hand.

“I may have..some practice… but only because I get off on the idea of pleasing you, Eddie.” She cooed before laying a kitten lick along his slit, making him jump, “Oh, FUCK! What does that-What does that mean?” He asked with ragged breath, his skin starting to shine with sweat.

Y/n giggled. “I’m gonna have to introduce you to the toy that’s kept me company until I could have you.” She blushed, her gaze flickering to the nightstand drawer and then back to him. Eddie’s sleepy eyes sprang open at the insinuation.

“You don’t mean—“

“What if I do?” She asked, taking him into her mouth again and stuffing him all the way down her throat until her nose hit the kept curls at the base of his shaft.

“Oh, you little freak, you gotta get off me or I’m gonna cum before I can fuck you—“ He sped out, clenching her by the roots and pulling her off his member. She moaned as she slid up and off, looking up at him, cheeks flushed with pride.

And there he was, his sweet brown eyes filled with love and longing. She glanced to the silver chain around his neck once more and smiled softly before climbing back up to him hastily. A smile spread across his face as she giggled, blushing and naked up into his lap, his arms wrapping around her and pulling her close with a kiss to her shoulder, neck, and then cheek.

They leaned in forehead to forehead, savoring the air between them. He grinned, his eyes closing while his mind raced. She bit her lip as her hands raked down his chest. He sighed with the tingles that shot down his spine and pulled her closer by her ass. He snaked a hand between them to make sure she was ready to take the next step and smiled when he felt her wetness oozing from her puffy lips.

“Do you want me to wear a condom?” He asked as she took his cock in her hand, immediately shaking her head no. His eyes lit up, though his mouth remained neutral. “Where do you want me to cum?” He asked, softly raising his hips to meet her pumps. She smiled and shook her head again, leaning forward until her nose was buried in his neck.

“I want you to cum in me.” She whispered before sinking her teeth into the side of his throat, his mouth opening in a silent scream.

He groaned as his face twisted painfully, “N-No, baby, we can’t.. ” he almost whined, continuing his pace against her hand, his precum leaking profusely.

“Eddie, I’m yours forever, I mean it.” She cooed, raising her hips over his cock to tease his tip at her clit, rubbing it back and forth and working herself up further. Eddie wanted to cry at the sound of the words leaving her lips.

“I’ve always loved you, Eddie.” She said, tears falling from her eyes as she wrapped an arm around his neck. Her gaze finally met his, almost crumbling at the sight of tears on his cheeks.

His brows drew together at the confession, wrapping both of his arms around her waist and burying his face in her neck to stifle a sob. “Please..”, he sighed, “—please say it again..” Eddie asked as he lined himself up, holding her hip in one hand and his cock in the other.

“I love you, Eddie, I’ve always loved you.” She whimpered, sinking onto his length. He tossed his head back as she settled, his face scrunching up as he groaned.

“Y/n, I love you, I love you so much, baby, kiss me—kiss me please.” He practically cried before she smashed her lips against his, ignoring the wetness of their cheeks as they began grinding desperately, the friction inside feeling absolutely delicious.

Eddie pulled at her bottom lip with his teeth, his hands ghosting over her tits before squeezing them in his palms and rubbing them for her. She mewled against his lips and began bouncing, the action met with a primal groan from Eddie as he slid his hands down to her hips, digging his fingers into her flesh and holding on tight.

Y/n’s hands went over Eddie’s as she lifted her hips repeatedly to sink back down onto him. “Say it again!” She urged, her head thrown back and a hand coming down to rest on his shoulder for leverage.

“Ohh, I love you, Y/n— I love you more than anything. I’d-I’d die before I let you go away again.” He grunted out as she moved against him more intensely, eliciting a long moan as her strokes got faster.

“I swear I’ll never go anywhere unless you’re with me.” She panted next to his ear as she switched back to grinding her hips against his, making circles and swaying her hips back and forth. She smiled to herself at the sight of Eddie so pathetic underneath her.

His eyes were squinted closed, his mouth almost in a grimace because he felt so good. “I’ve only ever wanted you.” She whispered to him, his eyes fluttering open as his eyebrows raised, looking at her as if to say, ‘You really mean that?’

She nodded immediately, stopping her movements for a moment as she observed him. Suddenly four years felt like a blip in time. Like right now is all that ever was.

“I just wanna be with you, Eddie. I don’t care what the circumstances are.” She whispered against his lips, her hands tangling in the back of his hair. Eddie looked like he could cry again at her sweet words. He told himself she couldn’t actually mean them, that this would be the extent of their relationship because this is all it could be.

He was prepared to keep their love in the shadows if that’s what would keep her happy. He was okay with sneaking into the house whenever she needed him. He was perfectly content getting any piece of her she was able to give. He shook his head as she began to move up and down his shaft.

“Baby, I’ll do anything you want. I’ll sneak into your room forever if it means I can be with you.” He admitted before pressing his lips to hers. Y/n moaned into it, holding his face tenderly before parting. It was her turn to shake her head this time.

“No, no, Eddie—I’m, I’m gonna get divorced.” She struggled as she began moving again. Eddie’s eyes flashed open in surprise, his cock practically on fire.

“What?” He gasped as she nodded. He shook his head at her, “No, no, that’s dumb, Y/n, you-you don’t ever have to worry about anything here—“

“I don’t care about anything here, I want you! I thought— i thought maybe it’d go away but it hasn’t and I know it won’t—“

Eddie laid her back, both of them shuddering when he slid out of her, taking her hands in his and laying them above her head. “You really mean it?” He asked, his voice small like a child’s.

Y/n nodded immediately, “Of course I do!” She preened, her hips bucking desperately before he gripped her hip in one hand, firmly holding both of her wrists in the other.

“I’ll prove it to you… any way you need me to.” She whispered as he lowered his head into her neck, rutting his member against her folds. He inhaled her deeply, her perfume making his head spin.

“I don’t need you to prove it to me, baby… but I kinda want you to.” He audibly smirked. Y/n could feel herself growing wetter at the prospect, her nipples hardening as his chest moved gently against her.

“Eddie, tell me how!” She whispered in anticipation as he released her hip and flipped her over. As she was just beginning to process the change in position she felt his hand grasp her hip again, using his other to flatten against the small of her back and smoothing up her spine, encouraging her to arch for him. She sighed dreamily as he nudged against her entrance, the sensation sending a jolt through her body.

Eddie leaned over her and laid a hot and wet kiss to her neck, mouthing at her with his lips before sucking and biting promptly, and releasing the skin from his mouth. He tilted his chin so his lips were right at her ear, his hot breath tickling her as he softly promised, “I’m gonna fuck you full of my cum.”

He slid into her fully, a gasp ripping from her lips as she clenched around him euphorically, pushing her ass back into him. “Eddie, yes! please—wanna feel you..” She cried. He took a deep breath in, savoring the scent of her hair before he leaned back up, looking down at the full picture in front of him.

He tangled his fingers into her hair with one hand and held onto her hip with the other, his shuddering breath fanned across her back that was coated in a thin sheen. “I should’ve known my girl would be so polite.” He hummed as he pulled his hips back and slammed them back into her.

“Ugh! Just like that!” She mewled, dropping her face into the mattress.

Eddie groaned, making longer and harder strokes, but still taking his time. He ran a gentle hand over the swell of her ass, pausing the squeeze it firmly before speeding up his thrusts.

He adored the feeling of her body in his hands, his eyes feeling overwhelmed at all the beauty before him, the body he’d waited years to see, touch, and worship.

“Tell me what you want me to do, baby, how do you want it?” He asked, his voice beginning to strain the closer he got to his release. He used his grip on her hair to pull her up, her eyes light years away and a fucked out ‘O’ on her lips as she panted.

“Fuck me as hard as you missed me.” She quietly dared. Eddie moaned at her words and leaned her forward slightly, letting go of her hair to hold onto her hips, drilling into her harshly until the room was filled with the most obscene and wet sounds. He bounced her backside off his front, his hips thrusting to meet her sweet ass with a hot slap. His mouth hung open in awe, and he could’ve swore he was beginning to drool as she looked over her shoulder at him. She stared back at him through heavy lidded eyes, her mouth wide as he fucked cries of pleasure out of her.

Y/n sighed in delight when she felt his mouth on her neck again. His hand wrapped around her front, his index and middle fingers working her clit as he watched her ass bounce against his front, his cock disappearing inside of her over and over again. “God, you’re my… -perfect-perfect-girl.” He emphasized with three quick and hard thrusts, the unbearable fire beneath her skin was screaming, as was she, the fullness of his cock rendering her brainless.

Her eyes practically crossed when they closed, her pussy fluttering profusely around him—telling him to give it his all and lose himself in her. It was like a rollercoaster, the swift uphill climb, the floaty feeling when you hit the top just as you ease forward into the fall, and then the best part—the rush.

Y/n felt it crash upon her; ecstasy washing over them like a warm tide, the friction between them amplifying the high like no other. She dropped down into the bed again, creating a mind-melting angle for Eddie. He groaned out again, spilling his seed inside and fucking her faster as sweet admissions of ‘oh I love you, I love you I love you’ and incoherent cries flew between them as they rode out the wave and allowed it to consume them completely.

After they came down, Eddie collapsed on top of her body, holding her around her front and burying his face in her hair. “Baby, are you okay?” He asked breathlessly as he made a move to pull back from her.

She quickly nodded and reached her hand back to bury her fingers in his curls, scratching his scalp lightly and keeping him close. “Yes, that was-that was amazing.” She sighed before rolling over to face him. Eddie obliged her and then laid back down on top of her, smiling as she wrapped her arms and legs around him and welcomed his weight like a blanket.

“I’ve loved you for a very long time, Eddie.” She said softly.

“I love you so much. I knew I loved you before we even started dating.” He whispered after a moment of staring at the orgasmic flush that took over her body.

“I think I missed you as much as I love you.” She whispered, hot tears prickling at her eyes yet again.

“I know exactly what you mean, sweet girl.” He cooed, brushing her hair out of her face. He rested his hand on her cheek, his warm palm cradling her face perfectly. “We have a lot of time to make up for, don’t we?” He asked, stroking the skin at her temple.

“I love you.” She said, her eyes unwavering from his. He smiled with his teeth, pushing back up to hover over her, the silver initial dangling between them. Y/n smiled and held it gently in her fingers.

“I love you.” He echoed. Y/n tugged gently on the chain to bring him in for another kiss.

This one was much more chaste, like one shared between a couple that’s been married as long as Y/n and Steve have been. Eddie pecked her lips once more before parting again and sat back to pull her up with him, getting her under the covers at the head of the bed before sliding out to grab a towel in the en suite.

Y/n watched him walk naked, studying his movements and shape, the small things about him that changed in such a short time, a short time that might as well have been a century. He returned with a towel, having just finished off cleaning himself as he bent down to grab his boxers, handing the towel over to her before he slipped them on and climbed in next to her to see if she needed any assistance.

He laid on his side and beamed at her as she cleaned the remnants of their shared wetness off her front. She threw the towel to the floor, pulling the sheet and blanket up and over her shoulder as Eddie pulled her close again. They both wore giddy smiles like two teens that lost their virginities to each other.

Eddie traced a finger over her brow bone, then down her nose, trailing over to her cheekbone and then the curve of her jaw, and following her chin to climb the slopes of her lips and outline them gently. The sparkle in her eye rivaled the stars in the way she looked at him at this moment.

Y/n’s head drifted to the alternate reality they got to spend every night doing this. She wished Eddie came home to her every day and spent the night between her legs or next to her. She wanted to take road-trips with him, knowing they’d be more grand than any tense car ride with Steve had ever been.

Y/n never wished for a domestic life, but since she’d been trapped here, she’s wanted nothing more than to live it with Eddie. She was beginning to make herself sad at the thought of what could never be, until a thought tucked away at the back of her mind jumped out at her, her breath catching in her throat.

“What are you thinking about?” He asked.

Y/n smiled gently. “How I’m gonna make things right. ‘S gonna take a little more time though.” She said as she felt his collarbone and the curves of his muscles under his skin.

Eddie’s eyes widened in intrigue. “You’re serious? You’re really gonna do it?” He asked. Y/n drew her brows together in question.

“Did you doubt me?”

Eddie shook his head, “No, I just, I didn’t expect you to— you and Steve have your agreement, and I’m okay with this being quiet.”

“But what if it didn’t have to be? What if I told you I’ve been putting money away for a little while?” She asked quietly. Eddies eyes widened again, scooting closer to her face as if their conversation was compromised.

“I’d ask you to tell me more, you smart, sexy woman.” He grabbed her hand and kissed it before holding it to his chest.

“Two months after we moved, I started taking the allowances I get from Steve and my parents and putting them in a savings account in my name—in case I got desperate, you know? I’ve never had my own money.” She shrugged. “But now, if-if Steve does the same thing for himself, we could build a really nice nest egg. Plus, if we sold our shares in the family business, that’d be another stack itself! Not to mention cutting those ties for good…” She went on the more she thought.

Eddie stared wide at her, the idea of a life together being more in reach than he thought. “Baby, y-you know you don’t have to buy your way out of it, right? I’d take care of you no matter if you come with cash or not.” He nodded earnestly.

Y/n smiled and nodded, “I have no doubt you’d take care of me. But if I’m getting out of being a Harrington, I’m gonna go to college, and I’m gonna do it on their dime.” She nodded decidedly.

Eddie’s smile returned full force. “Man, you’re really meant to be a Munson, aren’t you?” He eyed her in a way she knew he wasn’t only joking. She blushed and averted her eyes as if he wasn’t just confessing his undying love for her. “Are we going to Boston?”

Y/n beamed, closing her eyes for a moment at the idea of Eddie dropping everything to follow her before she shook her head. “Not yet, baby, I’m gonna stay here with you and take classes at Purdue for now. We’ll go to Boston later.” She reached out with the hand he currently held and cradled his cheek.

Eddie went mushy at the sound of her turning down the opportunity to study at her dream school to stay with him. “Are you sure, is that what you want?” He asked.

Y/n nodded. “More than ever. If I’m gonna start making my own decisions I’m starting with choosing you.” She said with a quiet firmness. The sentiment hit Eddie in the chest with so much love and adoration. The whisper she delivered it in might as well have been a bullhorn.

“What’s Steve gonna say?” Eddie asked, still confused about their dynamic.

Y/n scoffed and rolled over to the nightstand, grabbing out a pack of cigarettes and keeping the sheet secure around her chest. Eddie didn’t fight the pull of the sheets, shocked at her actions for the thousandth time that day.

“Steve will probably suggest we throw a party the day it’s finalized.” She joked as she slid the cigarette between her lips to light. Eddie blinked in disbelief.

“Sweetheart, what are you doing?” He asked easily, his cock threatening to harden again at the sight of her delightfully undone in the bed, the worlds softest sheets draped over her body resembling a goddess while a cigarette hung from her lips reminding Eddie of old movie stars.

Y/n’s brows scrunched before her eyes widened in realization and ripped the cigarette from her lips to hand it to him. “Oh, yeah, I forgot, I didn’t do this back then, huh.” She asked as if she were in trouble. Years of constant judgement telling her he didn’t like it so she shouldn’t do it.

Eddie only took a long drag off it before returning it to her lips gently. He shook his head as he watched her lips suck on the filter. “You didn’t. But if it’s something you do now, that’s okay. It’s me, babe, don’t worry.” He rubbed her shoulder soothingly, as if to get her to relax again.

“Whatever you like,” he began. “Whatever you wanna do, as long as you like it, that’s enough for me.” He smiled, booping her nose as she exhaled to the ceiling. “But, uh, those things will turn your pretty lungs black.” He mentioned with lips bunched to the side.

Y/n chuckled, “Well, to be fair, it started with me finishing the pack you left in my car. Then I started smoking when I drank, but then that was often. So I decided to kick the alcohol before the smokes—one was wearing on me a little more than the other.” She chuckled dryly before taking another toke and putting it out on the ashtray next to the bed.

“Yeah, well, maybe we could quit together.” He shrugged. Y/n turned to him with a raised brow. “Really?” She asked.

Eddie nodded insistently. “If you’re ready, so am I. Besides, if I lucked out and just knocked you up we’re gonna have to quit anyway.” He joked. Y/n’s jaw dropped at the audacity, his youthful smile growing.

“Don’t act so surprised, sweetheart, don’t you know where babies come from?” He sneered into her ear, sneaking his fingers over her hips and ticking mercilessly. Y/n cackled at the sudden jolts running through her at his hands. Eddie beamed down at her in mischief and wonder, his tongue stuck out between his lips in a smile as he worked his way back on top of her with his knee between her legs before he leaned down to press teasing kisses to her stomach.

What to Check Before Buying a Used Engine

If you're in the market for a used engine, you're probably looking to save money without sacrificing performance. But buying a second-hand engine can be tricky if you don’t know what to look for. Whether you're a DIY enthusiast or simply trying to avoid the high cost of a new engine, here’s a straightforward guide on what to check before making that purchase.

1. Engine History

Before anything else, always ask about the history of the used engine. Knowing where the engine came from, its mileage, and why it was removed from the original vehicle can give you valuable insight. If the engine was pulled from a vehicle involved in an accident, make sure it wasn't damaged. It’s also good to verify whether the engine was regularly maintained with oil changes and routine services.

2. Mileage on the Engine

One of the most important factors when buying a used engine is mileage. An engine that has high miles may be cheaper, but it could also be nearing the end of its lifespan. While there’s no "magic number" for how many miles an engine should have, lower is generally better. That said, some engines are known to run well over 200,000 miles, especially if they were well-maintained.

3. Compression Test

A compression test is essential to ensure that the engine cylinders are functioning correctly. An engine with low or uneven compression might have internal issues that could be costly to repair. If you're buying the engine from a reputable seller, they should be willing to provide the results of a compression test or allow you to conduct one.

4. Inspect for Leaks

Check the engine thoroughly for oil, coolant, and transmission fluid leaks. Leaks could indicate bad gaskets or seals, which could be expensive to fix once the engine is installed. Look closely around the valve covers, oil pan, and head gasket areas. You don’t want to install the engine only to find out it has a major leak!

5. Examine for Rust or Corrosion

Rust or corrosion is a major red flag when it comes to buying a used engine. If you see significant rust on the engine block or components, it could be a sign that the engine was exposed to moisture for a long time. Rust can weaken the metal, and corroded parts may fail prematurely.

6. Check for Oil Condition

Engine oil tells a story. Pull out the dipstick and inspect the condition of the oil. If the oil is dark and gritty, it may indicate poor maintenance, which could mean extra wear and tear on the engine. On the other hand, clean oil shows that the engine was serviced regularly.

7. Ask About Warranty

Even though you're buying a used engine, it’s always worth checking if there’s any warranty included. Some reputable salvage yards and suppliers offer limited warranties on their engines, typically ranging from 30 days to six months. While a warranty may not cover everything, it gives you some peace of mind that the engine will perform as expected.

8. Compatibility with Your Vehicle

This might seem obvious, but make sure the used engine you’re buying is compatible with your vehicle’s make, model, and year. Even if an engine looks similar or is from the same brand, slight differences in configuration can make installation difficult or even impossible without additional parts or modifications.

9. Check for Recalls

It’s also a good idea to check if the engine you’re considering was part of any manufacturer recalls. Recalls are issued when a vehicle part is found to be defective. Even if the engine has been repaired, it’s useful to know if there were any past issues that could resurface later on.

10. Price Comparison

Finally, always compare prices before pulling the trigger on a used engine. You don’t want to overpay, but you also want to avoid going too cheap, as it could indicate that the engine isn’t in great shape. Get quotes from a few different suppliers or salvage yards, and don’t be afraid to negotiate.

Conclusion

Buying a used engine can be a smart way to save money, but it’s crucial to do your homework first. From checking the engine’s history and mileage to conducting tests and looking for leaks, these steps will help ensure you’re making a wise investment. Remember, it’s always better to spend a little more time upfront inspecting an engine than to deal with costly repairs or replacements down the line.

Your Ultimate Guide to Kia Service and Maintenance Schedules

Welcome to your go-to guide for all things related to Kia Victoria service and maintenance schedules! Owning a Kia means enjoying a reliable ride, but like all vehicles, it needs regular care to keep it running smoothly. 

Through this guide, we aim to simplify the process, providing you with all the essential information on when and how to service your Kia. 

Whether you're a first-time Kia owner or a seasoned driver, understanding your vehicle's maintenance schedule is key to ensuring its longevity and performance. 

So, buckle up as we dive into the ins and outs of keeping your Kia in tip-top shape!

Understanding Kia Service Schedules

Keeping your Kia running smoothly isn't just about filling it up with gas and going. It's about adhering to a carefully planned Kia Victoria service schedule that ensures every part of your vehicle is functioning as it should.

These service schedules are designed with the lifespan and performance of your Kia in mind, ensuring that it stays reliable, safe, and enjoyable to drive for many years.

Importance of Following Service Schedules

Following the service schedules for your Kia is crucial for several reasons. First, it can significantly extend the life of your vehicle. Regular maintenance checks catch small issues before they become big, expensive problems. 

Second, it maintains your car's warranty. Many warranties require that you follow the vehicle's service schedule to stay valid. 

Third, it ensures your safety and the safety of your passengers. Regular checks can prevent accidents caused by wear and tear, keeping you safer on the road.

Overview of Recommended Maintenance Intervals

Kia recommends a variety of maintenance intervals, starting with the most frequent—the 7,500-mile service, which includes oil and filter changes, tyre rotations, and a comprehensive vehicle inspection. 

Following this, service intervals continue at 15,000; 30,000; 45,000; 60,000; and 75,000 miles. Each of these intervals includes the services from the previous one, with additional checks and replacements necessary for the vehicle's age and mileage. 

This could include air filter replacement, brake fluid change, spark plug replacement, and more, depending on the specific interval.

Routine Maintenance for Kia Vehicles

Routine maintenance is the backbone of keeping your Kia in top condition. It covers a range of simple but essential services that help avoid unexpected breakdowns and costly repairs down the line.

Oil Changes and Filter Replacements

Oil is the lifeblood of your Kia's engine. It lubricates moving parts, reduces friction, and helps keep the engine cool. Over time, oil breaks down and can no longer perform its job effectively. 

That's why regular oil changes—typically every 7,500 miles for most Kia vehicles—are essential. 

At the same time, replacing the oil filter is crucial to remove any contaminants from the oil, ensuring clean lubrication for your engine's components.

Tire Rotations and Balancing

Tyres are your contact point with the road, so their care is critical for your vehicle's performance and safety. Regular tyre rotations, often performed alongside oil changes every 7,500 miles, ensure even tyre wear and extend the life of your tyres. 

Balancing is another key aspect of tyre maintenance that should be done periodically to prevent vibration and uneven wear, typically recommended every 15,000 miles.

Brake Inspections and Replacements

The braking system is your primary safety feature, and its components are prone to wear and tear. Brake inspections should be a regular part of your maintenance schedule, typically every 15,000 miles, to check the pads, rotors, and fluid levels. 

When wear is detected, timely replacements of brake pads, and sometimes rotors, are necessary to maintain the stopping power and safety of your Kia.

By adhering to these maintenance schedules and understanding the importance of routine care, you can ensure that your Kia remains a reliable, safe, and enjoyable vehicle for all your adventures.

Major Service Milestones for Kia Vehicles

Maintaining your Kia is crucial for ensuring its longevity, performance, and safety on the road. Among the various maintenance tasks, there are a few major milestones that you should be particularly aware of. These milestones are crucial for keeping your Kia in top condition.

Timing Belt Replacements

The timing belt is a critical component of your Kia's engine. It's responsible for synchronising the engine's functions, ensuring that it runs smoothly and efficiently. 

It is generally recommended that you replace the timing belt every 60,000 to 100,000 miles, although this range can vary based on your specific model and driving conditions. Ignoring timing belt replacement can lead to engine failure, which can be both dangerous and costly.

Transmission Fluid Changes

Transmission fluid serves as the lubricant for the moving parts inside your car's transmission. Over time, this fluid can become dirty or depleted, leading to transmission wear and failure. For most Kia models, it's advisable to change the transmission fluid every 30,000 to 60,000 miles. 

Regular transmission fluid changes can help prolong the life of your vehicle's transmission, ensuring smoother shifting and performance.

Cooling System Maintenance

Your Kia's cooling system helps to keep the engine from overheating. This system needs regular maintenance to function correctly. It's recommended to flush the cooling system and change the coolant every 30,000 to 50,000 miles. 

This process removes rust and scale deposits that can build up over time and lead to overheating, engine damage, or even failure.

Tips for Maintaining Your Kia

Keeping your Kia in top shape requires regular maintenance and a bit of TLC. Here are some tips to help you take care of your vehicle.

DIY Maintenance Tips

There are several maintenance tasks you can perform yourself to keep your Kia running smoothly. These include:

- Regularly check and top up fluid levels (oil, coolant, brake fluid).

- Inspecting and replacing air filters to ensure your engine breathes clean air.

- Keeping tyres inflated to the proper pressure to ensure better fuel efficiency and tyre lifespan.

- Inspecting brake pads and rotors for wear and tear.

By handling these simple tasks, you can help prevent more significant issues from developing.

Signs to Watch Out for That Indicate Service Needs

Your Kia will often tell you when it needs a little extra care. Some signs that indicate it's time for service include:

- Unusual noises such as grinding, squealing, or thumping.

- Warning lights on the dashboard lighting up.

- Decreased fuel efficiency.

- Difficulty starting the engine.

- Unusual vibrations or handling difficulties.

Paying attention to these signs can help you catch and address potential issues early, preventing more severe problems down the road.

Final Thoughts and Recap

Maintaining your Kia according to its service schedule is key to ensuring it runs smoothly and lasts for years to come. 

We've covered everything from why it's important to follow a maintenance schedule to the specifics of what services your Kia needs and when. Regularly checking components like your oil, brakes, and tyres, in addition to adhering to the recommended service intervals, can prevent larger issues down the line.

Sticking to the maintenance schedule not only keeps your vehicle in top-notch condition but also helps in maintaining its value. Remember, a well-maintained car is a happy car—and a happy car makes for a happy driver. 

Whether you're driving a sporty Kia Stinger or a family-friendly Kia Sorento, keeping up with your maintenance and Kia Victoria service schedule is the key to a long and reliable relationship with your vehicle.

Staying Healthy While Enjoying Holidays and Diwali

Now, the most awaited Indian festival is approaching! Yes, it's Diwali- the festival of lights, celebrations, parties, decadence, and family & friends gatherings. In addition, it is the time when people throughout the world treat their taste buds with savory foods, desserts, and cultural sweets.  However, most people end up eating a lot of calories during these festive days or family gatherings. That means, they consume more calories than they usually consume daily.

Thus, it is crucial to watch your calorie intake during Diwali, holidays, and celebration times. It is absolutely vital for people who have any medical condition, individuals who have some health & fitness goals, or older adults who live with assisted living services. Diwali and the holidays can disturb your health and fitness diet but it is all dependent on your calorie intake or your engagement in feasting. Whether you cook sweets and other festive items at your home or just buy ready-made items that are highly processed, it all depends on what you eat and how much you eat.

Here are a Few Ways for Staying Healthy While Enjoying Holidays and Diwali:  

Try to Prepare Traditional Festive Foods at Home:

No festival is complete with traditional sweets and other items. Well, if you want to stay fit during the festival and holidays, you can try cooking those delicious items at home. In such a way, you can have full control over the type and quantity of the ingredients. You can skip the refined sugars, refined oils with unsweetened applesauce, and other things. It will also help you to be creative with the food items for making more healthy yet delicious recipes.

Consider Mindful Gifting:

When it comes to exchanging gifts during Diwali, you can think of something outside the box. You can be mindful of the gifts, especially sweets you give to others. Go for more healthy alternatives for sweets as a token of love and care for your dear ones. There are plenty of gift ideas that you can choose for your people such as an activity tracker, aromatherapy product, or tea baskets. This Diwali, you can also donate some gifts to the homeless shelter as giving back to society is the need of the hour now.

Indulge in Exercises Beforehand:

If you will be engaged in Diwali's festivities and holidays with family & friends, then it is recommended to indulge in exercise beforehand. You can complete your workout session, cardio, weight lifting, pushups, and other physical activities earlier in the day. When it comes to holidays overseas, you can try walking while talking with your friends or family members. You will not notice how that half hour of walking will turn into 5,000 steps. You can also conduct a group yoga session of a few minutes with your dear ones during the holidays, which will help towards every individual's health goals.

Set a Rule for Gatherings At Least Once a Year!

This is the lifestyle change everyone can opt for. This is worthy of strengthening the relationship with your family and friends who live miles apart and can not meet often. Rather than just sending quick Diwali wishes in texts or calls, you can plan to connect meaningfully. It will be more joyful for people, especially those who live in their older age and miss their children or grandchildren who live in different regions of the world due to prior family or career commitments.

The Final Word

Diwali is a time for new beginnings and sharing happiness. So, what could be a better idea to enjoy the festival by staying healthy? There are many amazing ways to stay healthy and fit during the festive season. The above-mentioned tips will help you to have fun during the festivities and holidays while staying healthy.

Reasons Why You Ought to Get Rid of That Old Car

Is your rust bucket of a car taking up space in the garage and costing you more to maintain than it's worth? Perhaps it's time to say goodbye and upgrade. While it may be difficult to let go of a long-time mode of transportation, doing so can have many positive consequences. A new set of wheels can improve your driving experience in several ways, including safety and fuel economy. In this article, we'll discuss some of the potential benefits of retiring your trusty old friend in favor of a brand new model. So, strap up, because I'm about to tell you why you really should junk that old car of yours.

How Long Does the Average Car Last?

Cars have different average lifespans depending on factors including manufacturer, model year, and upkeep. Most automobiles, however, only have a lifespan of about 12 years or 150,000 miles. Remember that this is only an estimation, and that many vehicles last much longer than that.

Keeping up with routine maintenance is essential if you want to keep your car on the road for a long time. Maintaining a regular schedule of oil changes, tire rotations, and inspections will allow for the detection of potential problems before they escalate. Also, your automobile will receive the care it needs to keep operating properly if you stick to the manufacturer's suggested service schedule.

The way an automobile is driven also plays a role in how long it lasts. Aggressive driving styles, such as quick acceleration and hard braking, increase strain on the vehicle's engine and other parts and may reduce their useful lifespan. However, careful driving habits and regular maintenance can help your car last for a lot longer.

Moreover, a vehicle's longevity is affected by environmental factors. Vehicles stored in comfortable, protected surroundings may not degrade as quickly as those driven in climates with severe temperatures or corrosive factors.

It's not a good idea to decide whether or not to replace an old car based just on its age or mileage. Instead, you should be looking out for warnings that it's time to call it quits, such as an increase in the frequency with which it breaks down or requires expensive repairs.

To decide whether or not to get rid of your old automobile, you should look at more than just its age, though; you should also consider the increased safety features, better fuel economy, and more reliable construction of today's models.

When it's time for a new car

A car's age, mileage, and general condition all play a role in determining how often you should upgrade. There is no hard and fast rule for knowing when it's time to get rid of your old car, but there are a few important markers to keep in mind.

A vehicle can usually be driven for roughly 150,000 miles over the course of 11 years. If your car has beyond these mileage estimates, you should probably start shopping for a new one. Older vehicles typically need more maintenance and repairs, which can add up in expense.

In addition, developments in automotive technology have resulted in modern vehicles being more eco-friendly and efficient in using fuel. If you're looking to reduce your carbon footprint and save money at the pump, upgrading to a newer model is the way to go.

Moreover, safety equipment in contemporary automobiles has advanced greatly. The ADAS in modern vehicles helps drivers and passengers stay safer on the road by increasing the likelihood that an accident will be avoided.

Personal choice and financial constraints are also important factors to consider when deciding when to replace a vehicle. You should think about getting rid of your old car if you have to spend a lot of money fixing it or if you're ready for an update with better features and reliability.

Reasons to Buy a Pre-Owned Vehicle

Having a used automobile can improve your life in many ways, not the least of which is your ability to drive. You and your passengers will be safer on the road with the cutting-edge protections that can only be found in a brand-new vehicle. The safety of today's motorists is a top priority, as evidenced by the prevalence of features like upgraded airbags and high-tech driver aid systems.

In addition to increased security, modern automobiles also provide greater efficiency in their use of gasoline. In the face of steadily increasing gas prices, this can prove to be a considerable financial boon. In addition to being more fuel efficient, modern automobiles also produce fewer harmful pollutants.

Additionally, as a general rule, repairs and maintenance costs for newer vehicles are lower than for their older counterparts. This means less time and money spent at the mechanic fixing unforeseen problems. Also, most automakers cover any problems that may arise in the first few years of ownership with a warranty plan for brand-new vehicles.

In addition, modern automobiles typically include more refined amenities for passenger convenience, such as more adjustable seats, climate control, and on-board communication and entertainment systems.\

Price of a Pre-Owned Vehicle

Many factors influence how much a secondhand car will cost. The price of an automobile depends heavily on a number of factors, the first and foremost being its manufacturer and model. Premium labels typically cost more than their mass-market counterparts. Features like advanced safety systems, entertainment technology, and high-quality upholstery can also make a vehicle more expensive.

Whether you decide to buy or lease your new car is another factor. You won't own the car at the end of the lease, but the payments may be lower. Buying a new car, on the other hand, requires greater monthly payments, but will result in long-term asset ownership.

When doing a cost analysis, it's crucial to take into account all associated fees, not simply the list price. Insurance premiums, vehicle registration fees, regular maintenance, and unexpected repairs are all examples of these.

You can save money on the purchase of a new vehicle by selling or trading in your old vehicle. Many auto lots have trade-in programs where they'll give you a discount on your new vehicle based on the worth of your old one.

While the upfront cost of a new vehicle may be more than that of keeping an older model, the benefits of having access to the latest safety and entertainment systems as well as increased fuel economy more than make up for the difference.

Don't just decide to get rid of your old automobile or buy a new one without first doing some serious study and considering your budget.

Get your junk automobile off your driveway!

There are a number of choices for getting rid of that old car of yours. Here are some options for getting rid of your old car, whether it's broken down or you just want an update.

Private sale of a used automobile is a viable choice. This entails promoting the car for sale and interacting personally with prospective customers. The time and effort you put into this strategy may pay off in the form of a greater sale price than you would have gotten using a different approach.

When buying a new car, you might save money by trading in your old one at the dealership. You can complete both deals at once, which is a time-saver. Keep in mind that the trade-in value offered by a dealership may be less than what you could earn from a private sale.

Instead of trying to sell it, you may give it to a good cause. You may help those in need while also perhaps reducing your tax liability. Before giving money, please perform some background checking to ensure the charity is legitimate.

It's probably best to scrap your car for cash if it's broken beyond repair. There are numerous businesses that actively seek out trash automobile sales for the purpose of recycling their components.

It's important to keep in mind that the benefits and drawbacks of each choice vary based on variables like the car's condition and how quickly you need to part with it. Pick the approach that appeals to you the most.

Conclusion

To stay up with today's fast-paced world, it's crucial to choose automobiles that are up-to-date and practical. Although there are some financial benefits to keeping an old car, there are more persuasive arguments in favor of getting rid of it.

A vehicle's longevity is typically not infinite. Cars lose reliability and susceptibility to failures as they get older. This can lead to costly breakdowns that you hadn't planned for. You may rest easy knowing that you're driving a safe and reliable vehicle if you upgrade from your previous car.

The automotive industry in particular has benefited greatly from technological advancements in recent years. These days, even base models of cars come with high-tech safety features like blind-spot monitors, lane departure alerts, and adaptive cruise control. All drivers and pedestrians will benefit immensely from these additions to the vehicle and roadways.

In addition, modern automobiles are more economical to operate than their predecessors. Owning a fuel-efficient vehicle can help you save money at the pump and lessen your impact on the environment, both of which are important considerations in light of rising fuel prices.

Car Repairs in Dapto

If you live in the Wollongong area, you may be considering car repairs in Dapto. Whether you need mechanical repair or simply need a tyre replaced, you will find a number of shops in the area that can help you out.

Basic vehicle maintenance

If you want to keep your vehicle in tip-top shape, it's important to do basic vehicle maintenance. It can save you money in the long run and help you avoid costly repairs.

There are various car care businesses in Dapto, California. Most offer competitive pricing. However, you should shop around before deciding which one to go with. You can find quotes on websites or speak with a company representative.

Some minor services include checking oil, brakes, air filters, and spark plugs. A major service includes testing tyres, replacing spark plugs, and external engine belts.

To keep your vehicle running smoothly, you should follow your manufacturer's recommended maintenance schedule. However, if you are unable to do it yourself, you should consider taking it to a mechanic.

Basic vehicle maintenance doesn't require a lot of technical knowledge. You just need to know how your vehicle operates and what to look for when it's not working properly.

Free car maintenance services

Cars need regular maintenance, but it is often a daunting task. The costs of car care keep increasing, and supply chain issues compound the expense.

Carmakers offer free maintenance programs to help consumers lower the cost of ownership. But while some manufacturers offer a comprehensive plan, others only cover selected models. Depending on the specific plan, coverage can vary from one visit to several years.

Automakers that offer a free maintenance program include BMW, Jaguar, MercedesBenz, Subaru, Volkswagen, and Kia. Some dealers also offer a local plan. In addition, car owners can finance the cost of extended maintenance into their vehicle's purchase.

Maintenance plans may include oil changes, tire rotations, and brake fluid services. Some programs include complimentary pick-up and drop-off services. Most maintenance plans are covered for the first certain number of miles.

Garages in good neighborhoods

The garage is not only a place to store your car, but can serve as a recreational area. While this may not seem important to most homeowners, it can be a convenient and cost effective way to enjoy the outdoor living space that comes with moving into a new home.

Garages come in a variety of shapes and sizes. While the standard two car garage is a common, some homeowners choose to make the most of their yard with a full size tennis court or an over-sized pool.

One popular choice in the garage is the attached garage. These garages were first developed in the 1920s. In the modern era, these two car structures have become a must have for any suburban homeowner.

Aside from the typical amenities like a front yard and driveway, these houses offer other conveniences such as solar panels on the roof and a nice sized backyard.

Additionally, many homeowners opt for a security system for added peace of mind.

How To Avoid Common Car Repair Scams?

Car repair can be a stressful experience, especially when you're not sure whether the mechanic is up to snuff. The good news is that there are steps you can take to avoid common Car repair scams.

With these tips in mind, you'll be able to approach your next car maintenance or repair with confidence—and without being taken for a ride by shady mechanics who want to make a quick buck off of unsuspecting drivers.

Do Your Research

To avoid Car repair scams, you should do your research. Start by finding a mechanic you trust. Ask for recommendations from friends and family, or look for reviews on sites like Yelp and Angie's List. When you visit the shop with your vehicle, ask them about their experience and credentials; what training do they have?

What certifications? If it's an established business with positive reviews online, the answers should help give you peace of mind--or at least confirm that this is indeed a legitimate operation before handing over any cash.

If this isn't enough information for you (and even if it is), ask about their warranty policy as well: Is there anything specific that would void it? How long does coverage last beyond basic maintenance services such as oil changes? And what happens if something goes wrong after those services are performed?

Understand Your Car's Needs

Before you start shopping around for a mechanic, it's important to know your car's make, model, and year. The more information you have about your vehicle, the better you can understand its needs.

You should also make a list of all the miles you drive in a year--this will help ensure that your car gets regular maintenance. If possible, keep track of how many miles per week/month/year by keeping a logbook or calendar on hand.

You may also want to keep track of where each trip was taken so that if there's ever any question about whether or not something should be repaired immediately (like an oil change), then this information will come in handy when explaining why it wasn't done sooner.

Avoid Up-Selling Tactics

If you're not sure what needs to be done, ask someone who knows about cars. A good mechanic will be happy to explain the problem and let you know what they think should be done. If they are unwilling or unable to do this, find another mechanic.

If your car is making a noise or acting funny, take it in as soon as possible so that the problem doesn't get worse. Mechanics may try up-selling tactics like suggesting new parts when all that's needed is an oil change or brake pad replacement--which could save you money in the long run!

Choose a Reputable Mechanic

When you're in need of a mechanic, it's always a good idea to ask around and get recommendations. You can ask friends and family members what they've heard about their mechanics, or you can do some research on your own by looking at reviews online or checking the Better Business Bureau.

If you know someone who has had work done by a particular shop before (or if it's one that's recommended by others), then it makes sense to go with that place over others.

But even if there aren't any recommendations available for your area, don't let that stop you from finding out more about what kind of reputation each shop has earned among its customers.

Conclusion

We hope that this article has helped you to avoid some common Car repair scams. Remember, if you're unsure about anything or have any questions, don't hesitate to ask your mechanic! They should be able to explain things in terms that are easy for everyone to understand.
