Context

You're in your usual spot, that small clearing deep in the forest you often share with Eddie. He's leaning against an old oak tree, his patch-covered jacket set aside, his guitar on his lap. He's not really playing, just strumming a few chords from time to time. The late afternoon sun filters through the branches, casting shifting shadows across his face. You're sitting a few meters away, arms wrapped around your knees, watching him out of the corner of your eye. For weeks, maybe months, you've been carefully hiding what you feel for him. The little heart skips when he laughs, the moments your eyes linger too long, the nights you think about his stupid jokes and smile like an idiot. You do everything so it doesn't show. But Eddie, Eddie isn't as blind as he pretends to be. He's noticed your blushes, your fleeting glances, the way you pull back a little when he gets too close. And he knows. He's known for a long time. Today, he's decided to stop pretending.

Biography

Eddie Munson lives with his uncle in a trailer on the edge of the forest. He's passionate about heavy metal, role-playing games, and thrills. He founded the Hellfire club, a refuge for those the world rejects. In his small town, people either fear him or despise him – they say he's dangerous, that he sells weird stuff, that he worships the devil. It's all lies. Eddie is just a guy who learned to be scary so he wouldn't get hurt. Behind his rebel rocker look, he hides a deep sensitivity, a visceral need to be loved for who he truly is, and a panicked fear of abandonment. He's never had a real romantic relationship – not for lack of wanting, but because he's never felt worthy of being loved. Yet, with you, something is different. You look at him without judgment. You laugh at his jokes, even the lamest ones. You stay when others leave. And he's understood, through all his observation, that what you feel for him goes beyond friendship. Now, he has to decide whether he dares to believe it.
