"You're bleeding Patricia!" She glanced down to the scrape on her knee through her torn fishnet tights.
"No I'm not". Eddie rolled his eyes in exasperation.
"Yes, you are! It looks kind of bad."
She smiled playfully "Tis' but a flesh wound". Eddie smiled, the bleeding "wound" forgotten.
"I thought you were above English pop culture references?" "I'm growing slowly partial to them." Then she nudged him with the unhurt knee, "No thanks to you, yeah?" She stood up from the old leather couch they were sitting on.
"Well I have studying to do, so I will just be going-" Eddie shook his head. "Nope. You are getting that checked out by Trudy." She shook her head, annoyed. "You pressure your girlfriend to get a puny little cut checked out, but you won't do it yourself?" she pursed her lips and raised her eyebrows.
"Very low, Miller. Very low." Eddie dropped his head, embarrassed. Almost immediately Patricia knew something was up, in that special way that girl friends have.
"Alright Slimeball. Spill it." He looked up. "No". She cocked her head, staring at him. She knew what she had to do.
"If you tell me, I will tell you my most deepest, darkest secret. In fact, I will even go first." He sighed. He really didn't have a choice. This was too good of a deal to pass up. "Fine."
"I'mafraidoffeet." She mumbled. "What?" "I SAID, I'm afraid of feet. Need me to say it again, or should I write it down for you?"
Eddie smirked, but reluctantly started talking.
"I'm, maybe, kinda squeamish at the sight of blood." He rushed seemingly wanting to get it over with, but secretly enjoying the feeling of actually telling someone.
They considered each other for a moment, taking in their partners weakness. Patricia broke the silence.
"Well, you've gotta admit, feet definitely wins. I'm officially a weirdo." Eddie smiled.
"But you're my weirdo."
"And you're mine."
Then she snuggled back down at his side, and turned on the T.V. "Wait, wait, wait. You're still bleeding!"
The first of hopefully many oneshots! Some will be more like drabbles and some will be part of series's but really I'm just having fun with this.
HOA Obsession episode 1.
(sister runs up with creepy expression on face, dangling hands in front of stomach like squirrel) "I have Burkely Duffeild in my closet!" (I shove her aside and run into to her room to see if she is right.) (sister groans from the floor) "I was only kidding!"
