Part 3 to Meeting Him and Date Night

Eddie paces back and forth in his apartment.

"Why are you pacing?" Venom asks. "You're making me feel..."

"Anxious? Yeah. Me too."

"I've never felt anxious before." Venom says. "I don't like it. Make it stop."

"I can't help it." Eddie sighs. "Alright. That's it. Tonight's the night. I'm gonna do it." Eddie rubs the sweat off his hands onto his jeans.

You drop your keys on the counter after such a long day at work. You lean against the counter and take your boots off. You go into your fridge and the first thing you see is the bottle of chocolate syrup.

Since Venom likes chocolate, you decided to give him some tastes. He's had Reese's, Hershey, M&Ms both with and without nuts, Kit Kat, York, which he really doesn't like and you had to find that out the hard way. Then you showed him the chocolate fountain at Golden Corral. He likes to make going there a weekly thing. He's still trying to persuade Eddie to buy one. And chocolate syrup is one of his favorites. He likes it on ice cream, on strawberries, in milk, on tator tots... on you. Woah baby does he like chocolate syrup on you.

Something makes a noise in your apartment that breaks you away from your thoughts.

"Eddie?" You say. "Venom? Is that you?" You hear another noise. "Come on guys this isn't funny." You feel sleekness wrap around you.

"You're right." The voice says. "It's hilarious."

Everything goes black.

Eddie has been calling you for the past 10 minutes but you're not answering.

"She's not answering."

"I know." Venom says. "Try again."

"I've tried like 20 times." He says frustrated. "I don't know what to do." Eddie's phone rings and he answers. "Y/N?"

"Not quite."

"Carnage." Eddie growls.

"Right-o."

"Why do you have Y/N's phone?"

"I think that's pretty obvious. I have her because I want you. Now you and Venom will come to the bridge if you want to keep your beautiful girlfriend alive."

~

As you open your eyes, you realize that your arms hurt and you feel a breeze. Your vision comes together and you see that you are dangling from the bridge over the ocean.

"Finally! You're awake!" Carnage says happily.

"Wh—what the hell is going on?!" You yell. Cletus' face is revealed.

"I really don't want to explain myself twice so we'll wait until your boyfriend shows up. Ah! And there he is. The man, or men of the hour." Venom slams himself onto the San Francisco bridge.

"Carnage!" Venom growls. "Let her go!"

"Um... no." Carnage smiles. Venom takes a step. "I wouldn't. You see the reason why I called you here, was to test your decision making. On this side we have your beautiful girlfriend." Venom looks down and sees you dangling. "And on the other side, we have a bus full of children. They're both going to be released at the same time and you have to choose who to save. A bus full of the future of America? Or your lover?" Carnage giggles. "I'll give you time to decide." Venom drops down to you.

"Hi." You say. Venom's face peels back.

"I'm so sorry." Eddie says.

"It's ok."

"I have to get you out of here." He says.

"No." You say. "No. Save them." You say. "Save the kids."

"No." Eddie says. "I won't."

"You have to. They're kids and I'm just me."

"No! You're everything to me. Please. Don't make me choose."

"Too late." You wriggle your hands free and begin to fall. About 1 second after you let yourself go, the kids begin to fall as well.

As you fall, you're thinking, 'I'm so heroic. I'm saving the kids.' But then it hits you. 'Oh shit. I'm falling to my death.' And you begin to scream.

You feel yourself caught and wrapped in a cocoon.

"Don't ever do that again." Venom's growl is so filled with anger that it shakes you to your core.

"Agreed. Sorry. Wait. If you caught me, Eddie—" you look over and see Eddie falling. You throw out your arm and catch him. "I've got you." The tongue comes out your mouth and licks his face.

"As horny as that made me feel, I need him back."

"Oh. Right. Sorry handsome." Venom lets you go safely into the water and he transfers himself to Eddie to save the kids.

"What were you thinking?! Do you realize what could have happened if we didn't get there in time?! You could have been dead, that's what would have happened! You would have died and that would have been the end of you! That decision was very reckless!"

"I know! I know! I'm sorry!" You say.

"I mean you just let go! When we told you not to! You just let go!"

"I know! I was there! But it was ok."

"No it wasn't!" He hisses. "And stop saying that it was!"

"Are you done yelling at my girlfriend?" Eddie asks. Venom's head that's sticking out of Eddie looks at him.

"Yes. I am done... for now." He sulks back inside.

"I've never seen him so mad." You say.

"He was just scared. He really thought you were going to die. He cares about you, you know?" You nod. Eddie pulls you into a hug.

"I was scared too. At first I thought it was so heroic, but then I realized that I didn't want to die."

"Be quiet."

"What did he say?"

"If she didn't want to die, she shouldn't have let go. It's that simple." You sigh.

"How long is he gonna stay mad at me?"

"Well it depends on your answer."

"To what?"

"It's what I really wanted to happen tonight." Eddie steps back.

"What are you doing..."

"Ahem. Um. I love you. A—and Venom loves you even though he hasn't said it yet, but I know he does. I was happy with you before, but now that you accepted Venom without any major problems, I've been even happier. If you died tonight, I would have died too. So, I have to ask you..." he gets down on one knee and pulls out a ring. "Y/F/N Y/M/N Y/L/N, will you marry me—us. Will you marry us?"

"Are you serious?"

"Yeah." He chuckles.

"Seriously?" You ask.

"Yes. Seriously."

"Yes." You say teary eyed. "Yes I will marry you. Both of you." Eddie happily gets up and puts the ring on your finger. He kisses you and the two of you hug. You start laughing.

"What?" Eddie asks.

"I just had the funniest thought. The three of us at the alter and Venom's head sticking out with a little bow tie around his neck." Eddie laughs.

"We could make that happen." He smirks.

"Maybe we should reconsider this wedding thing..." Venom says.
