They liked watching you sleep.
When they both told you this before, you burst out laughing, calling it a “creepy Edward Cullen move.” However, you didn’t actually scold at them to stop, and so Venom never stopped watching you.
As much as it liked its host, Eddie didn’t like to leave the symbiote alone with you. He thinks that it would hurt you. No, no, anything but that. If Eddie loved you, Venom believed it could like you just as well. But Eddie won’t take such a chance, and so, Venom settles for night.
At night time, it’s much easier to be with you. At night, Venom had you all to itself.
For instance, right now. You’re sleeping so soundly beside them. Your eyes are shut serenely and your mouth is slightly ajar. You breathe at a steady and rhythmic pace, slowly and heavily. Venom still can’t get used to the idea that another life form would be willing to sleep next to them. It wished it could talk to you, ask why you stayed despite it being a parasite in Eddie’s life.
Venom crawls over Eddie’s right arm. It transforms into a gnarled and humongous clawed hand. Each talon is the size of a knife blade, designed with the intent to rip flesh into shreds. Keeping this in mind, Venom tenderly traces your hair line.
You stir. making a small sound in your sleep.
Venom immediately withdraws. Did it hurt you? It waits, tensely watching you. A sleepy curl of a smile appears on your lips. Unconsciously, you roll over into their arms, snuggling into their chest. You then return to your heavy and even breathing.
They’re at awe. You’re in their arms right now, so trusting and unknowing. Venom can count the thousands of ways it has slaughtered in the past. Its hands were made for killing, after all. But here you are, a strange and wonderous life form, lying asleep besides it.
Venom slowly puts its arms around you, and pulls you closer. Quietly, it covers Eddie’s unconscious form. In a matter of a few seconds, Eddie’s stocky body is transformed into a hulking mass of oily muscle. Gently, Venom secures you in its arms.
Maybe for just one night, it’ll have you all to itself.
