Warm hug
Eddie Brock/Venom x Reader
(Y/N) huffs as she trudged up towards her shared apartment door, her brows furrowed as water dripped from every inch of her body. Outside the rain poured from dark cloud and harshly pelted the ground, able to be heard even from inside the building. She just knew she looked like a drowned rat. Soaked (H/C) hair clinging to her chilled skin, clothes sticking to her skin as the thin jacket she had did little to no affect against the weather and shoes making a squish from each step she made.
(Y/N) didn’t have the best day. First waking up an hour late due to her phone being dead, which she thought she was charging, and rushing to get dressed, skipping her morning routines as well as skipping breakfast. Running to work and carding her fingers through her hair only to receive an earful from her boss, the cranky bitch, she spent the day doing other’s work piled on top of her own.
Finally, after hours of stressful coworkers and one skull shattering headache, she finished the most of her work, collecting her things and happily leaving the building. As soon as one foot was out the door a droplet of water hit the ground followed by another and in the matter of seconds, rain fell, growing harder and faster each second. With a silent curse she began to sprint back to her apartment building, feet splashing through puddles inches deep.
Needless to say this was the worst day she has ever had in quite a long time.
‘Guess I was due for a shitty day huh..’ She thought as she digs through her coat pockets until the sound of metal clinking against metal was heard. (Y/N) unlocked the door and pushed it open, her brows relaxing a little once she saw the apartment she knew and loved. The smell of Chinese food and what was a half empty air freshener in the corner, despite her smelling of wet nature, the all too familiar scent relaxed her in a way. She was finally home, away from work, mother nature and the evils of the world.
It wasn’t much, a single bedroom, a small half room for storage and the washer and drier, kitchen, bathroom and a living room. The place she shared with her boyfriend of eight months, Eddie Brock. Not to forget a certain “friend” of his, someone she had grown fond of since his appearance.
Speaking of, her eyes trailed to Eddie who sat on the couch and a small tired smile grew on her pale lips. To anyone else he would have seemed to be talking to himself but she knew better. Eddie went silent and tore his gaze away from the coffee table to see a soaked (Y/N) standing in the doorway. His eyes slightly widened, standing and rushing to his love.
“What the hell happened?” He asks in shock, his brown orbs full of worry as he stared deep into her (E/C) eyes. (Y/N) sighs as memories of her day come flooding back, huffing at the mere mention of it.
“Everything.” Eddie lightly frowns, immediately noticing by the tone of her voice and tired eyes, today might have not been the best. Eddie began to help her peel off her jacket, the (H/C) haired female mumbling a soft thanks and kicked off her shoes at the door.
“Go change into some warm clothes and I’ll thrown this in the drier.” Eddie says softly, showing a light smile which she returned. She nodded and walked to their shared room, beginning to pull off her drenched shirt on the way, more then eager to get off the now freezing wet clothes.
Eddie sighs to himself as he heads towards the small room and tossed the wet article of clothing into the drier. A black mass grew in the corner of his eye but he paid no attention to Venom’s small head. He felt bad for (Y/N), knowing fully well how she was after a stressful day, not to mention experiencing many of those himself in the past.
“She is upset. Why is she upset?” Venom’s voice rung in his ears and Eddie shook his head.
“She’s just tired from work.” Eddie mumbles, still weary of letting the symbiote get involved with (Y/N) when shes in a more upset mood. Two months ago when his body was no longer just his own, all hell broke loose. For the first week or two Eddie was distant, rarely home and always seemingly anxious, stressed and frustrated whenever (Y/N) saw him. He didn’t dare let her around with Venom now apart of him, scared as to how the alien creature would react to his girlfriend and out of worry, settled to push her a bit further away in his life in fear of the worse. (Y/N) eventually caught on to him keeping her at a distance and an argument grew, the poor female convinced that he was purposely ignoring her for no reason. That was until she met Venom.
“We should make her not upset.” Venom suggested with a growing grin, looking at his host’s face who’s brows furrowed.
“No you can’t do anything stupid, she’s already stressed a-“ Eddie was cut off by the sound of a door closing followed by gentle bare footsteps against the hard wood flooring. Both of their heads turned at the sound and Eddie quickly exited the room, Venom retreating back into his hoodie to observe in secret. Eddie’s eyes landed on the form that was (Y/N), dressed in sweat pants and a large tee shirt that was most likely his own. Her eyes were barely open, looking even more tired then she had been just a few minutes ago.
A yawn escaped her lips, carding her fingers through her now damp hair. “I’m so tired…” She mumbles, walking closer to him enough that she could wrap her arm’s around Eddie’s waist, her head falling to rest on his shoulder. A small chuckle left his lips, wrapping his arms around her and placing a kiss to her temple. Venom grew a bit jealous when they shared moments like this together, wanting to be apart of it as well, a tendril of inky goo like substance reaching out from the sleeve of Eddie’s hoodie to make contact with (Y/N)’s back.
Venom could feel (Y/N) slightly tense up at the new touch but relaxed, figuring out what or who had touched her. The symbiote took this as an okay to continue, more tendrils forming to wrap around her frame, hugging her in his own way.
A sigh of content escaped her, gently squeezing Eddie and Venom who was mainly under the man’s clothing. “Your hugs are warm. We should do this more often….” She mumbles against the fabric of his hoodie with shut eyelids, a smile gracing Eddie’s lips as he closed his own eyes as well.
“We should.” (Y/N) opened her eyes when she hears Venom’s voice, his head come into her field of vision. Her eyes staring at the disembodied head while keeping her head on Eddie’s shoulder with a lazy smile.
“Hey V.” She mumbles, Venom moving closer to nuzzle the side of his head against (Y/N)’s causing a small giggle to leave her. “Morsel.” (Y/N) hums a bit while she relaxed in their hold.
“I love you guys… I don’t know what I’d do without either of you..” She mumbles tiredly while Eddie began to rub soothing circles on her back. “We love you too Morsel.” “Love you too babe.” The both spoke in over each other. The three stayed put, enjoying the warmth and touch of each other as the faint sound of rain could be heard in the back ground.
It may have been a rough day but (Y/N) knew she could always come home to the loving embrace of the two she loved most.
Note: Alright! First one shot done! So sorry if this sucks, I have not written anything in a LONG while and I’m sorry if Eddie or Venom are out of character! For now, I will try to write as much as I can while I still have the motivation to do so lol
