    Summary

    He may have died, but there would never be another Chrissy Cunningham looking down on him from the ceiling of his uncle’s trailer. And, as he closed his eyes for the last time, he was not haunted by her eyeless sockets and silently screaming jaw, as he had been every time he blinked since the day he watched her die.
    Instead, all he saw was her bright smile and the way her eyes glimmered in the afternoon sun that day in the woods.
    And then––
    He woke up.

     

    or

    Eddie Munson dies in the Upside Down. He wakes up in bed.

    Summary

    And they do make it out alive, with Mike Wheeler’s superpowered girlfriend managing to seal off the gate to the Upside Down with little more than a nosebleed, and look, Eddie can’t say it’s the best Spring Break he’s ever had, but he can’t say it’s the worst either, especially with Chrissy, bruised and tired and dirtier than he thought it was physically possible for her to get (he just kinda figured shit didn’t – couldn’t – stick to her, y’know?) smiling at him like that. All uneven teeth and crinkled nose and eyes kyber crystal blue, and there’s something in his chest that feels tight, but not in the way it normally does. Not in that stretched dead-mom-dad-in-prison-can’t-graduate-trailer-park-piece-of-shit way, but just in a way that sort of feels full.

    Like he’s pulled her and been pulled by her through an enemy base, and they’re fucked up but alive and there’s a prize in that. A not-quite-heroes'-end for a pair of not-quite-heroes.

    Eddie and Chrissy make it out of s4 alive, and try to figure out what the hell happens next.

    Summary

    “I don’t want to go home,” she breathes.

    “You don’t have to. You can stay here with me.”

    She lifts her head from his shoulder to find he’s already looking at her. “You’ll get tired of taking care of me, Finnick.” The corners of his lips twitch, fighting against an ill-timed smile. “Now, Annie, I don’t think that’s true.” He urges her against him again and she obeys, knowing better than to argue with him. He only says what he means.

    “You have to rest.”

    “I am. See?” She closes her eyes to solidify her point. She can feel his laugh caught in his throat and she feels at peace. At least for a moment. Inhale-hold-exhale. Again and again and again.

    As his fingers comb through the knots in her hair, there is only one thing that comes to mind: maybe it was worth it after all.
