Hello all! So I was laying in bed and a new story idea popped into my head. I am new to Rev KevEdd but I feel like the story would fit this pairing better. I am still working out the plot line but I wanted to give you guys a taste of it, a preview if you will. I'm straying a little far from the normal Rev KevEdd story lines but I am hoping you guys enjoy the story.
Love Eden
Edd stalked down the hall, hands in his pockets. Study hall had comes rather dull and he thought that a walk would be more productive. Swim practice left his sore and his calf muscles tended to cramp if he sat in one place for too long. His couch had talked to his teachers, allowing him to get up and walk around to relieve his discomfort. Halfway through the first semester, no teacher questioned Edd as he walked the halls throughout the day.
The sounds of running feet snapped Edd to attention. A blur of red rounded a nearby corner and vanished into the men's restroom. Curiosity got the better of the young man and he entered the bathroom. The harsh sounds of vomiting echoed off the dingy tiles. Edd scrunched his noise as the sharp smell of bile and stomach acid reached him. It was easy enough to guess which stall held the sick student.
There was a silence than more vomiting. Sighing, Edd was able to unlock to stall with his library card. A red hat, one that Edd recognized, sat on the floor. The student was hunched over the toilet, red hair bright about porcelain.
Kevin Barr was the student reliving what he had for lunch not an hour before. So far, Kevin had not noticed Edd standing behind him. Edd, one of his main tormentors, waited quietly for the ginger to finish being sick. The flush of the toilet was loud and Kevin finally stood up. When he turned around, he ran straight into Edd's chest. There was a confused look on Kevin's face, still trying to recover from his ordeal.
"E-Eddward," Kevin gasped, pinned down by the gaze of the taller boy. They were so close that Kevin could smell the leather of his jacket and there was a slight hint of chlorine behind it. Edd's face was in its usual expression whenever he cornered the small boy, a mix of amusement and something that Kevin did not recognize. There were dark circles that made his eyes a bright shade of blue, like the sky after a spring rain.
"Are you not feeling well, Citrouille?" Edd's voice was low and smooth.
Kevin shook his head. "No, I am fine now. I guess something from my lunch didn't settle well."
Edd raised an eye brow at the weak lie.
"Now if you will excuse me, I need to go back to class." Kevin slipped around Edd and headed towards the door.
There was a strange hitch in the way Kevin walked. Edd tilted his head and assessed what would cause the younger boy to walk like that. He had watched the boy since freshman year and had seen that walk only after one of the more vicious attacks the ginger had received at the hands of a few football players the previous year. An old injury must have flared up and the pain could cause nausea if the pain was intense enough.
Edd walked across the bathroom and stepped between Kevin and the exit. "If you keep walking on that leg, you will only further irritate the injury."
Kevin was shocked that Edd was concerned for his well being. Their relationship had been that of a cat and a mouse. The more Kevin resisted or ran from Edd, the more excited the chase was for the swimmer. If he tried to run away, Edd would only further push into his life. There were not many people that knew about his pain issues. The constant beating made it hard for Kevin's body to every fully recover. His hand went to his leg, slowly massaging the muscle of his thigh.
Warmth spread through Kevin, the pain dulling. It was finally kicking in. A sign passed through Kevin's lips and the world grew a little fuzzy around the edges. The nausea was a precursor for what was to come. He had taken the pill right after lunch, knowing it was silly to eat before taking it. What a waste of food that was. But, the euphoria filled him and he could not feel the pain anymore.
Edd watched as there was a physical change in Kevin. A light left his eyes and his face softened. Something was very wrong, Edd could feel it. Lately, Kevin had been spacing out more often, running into things or dropping books. Edd had blamed it on the nerd's clumsy nature but it was clear now that something was off about Kevin. A quick assessment of the situation and past events made Edd's stomach feel like lead.
Before Kevin could stop Edd, the swimmer hands were on the smaller boy. A squeak came from Kevin, confused about the situation. The warmth of Edd's hands felt warm through his clothes. Kevin blushed brightly. Was Edd making advances on him?
That thought quickly left his mind as Edd's hand slipped into his left back pocket of his pants. Reflectively, Kevin grabbed Edd's wrist, yanking it out of his pocket. A small baggy lay in Edd's palm and both boys stared at it. There was only one pill left. It only took Edd a moment to recall the type of pill that rested in his hand. It was a high strength pain killer; usually give to those after surgeries to cope with the pain. Since it was in a small, clear Ziploc bag it was clear that Kevin did not have a prescription for it.
"They- I- It's not…" Kevin tripped over his words, fear rising in his throat.
Without a word, Edd wrenched his arm from Kevin's weak grasp and stalked into the closest stall. Kevin followed hot on his heels. The pill fell from Edd's hand and into the toilet, being carried away by the swirling water. A strangled cry startled Edd. Kevin started forward towards to toilet as if to retrieve the already lost narcotic.
This situation was worse than Edd could have imaged. The boy that he tormented, stalked, and harassed was addicted to painkillers.
I hope you enjoyed. Sorry it was so short. There will be more to come. I love reviews and comments.
