The Jock and the Dork: A Love Story
It was a chilly Fall morning in the nice, quiet, peaceful cul-de-sac of Peach Creek. While all the other kids in the cul-de-sac were getting prepared for the busy school day ahead, one very muscular jock named Kevin Barr was still asleep. Kevin was a star athlete for Peach Creek's High School baseball, football, and basketball teams. Now entering into his senior year he was named captain of all three teams. He was the envy of every man and the eye of every girl. He could have any girl he wanted, but yet he didn't want any of them which lead us into our story.
Kevin lied in bed, until his alarm went off signaling it was time to get up and start his day. Upon hearing the alarm, he made a fist and punched the clock nearly knocking it off the night stand. He stood up and stretched, then decided it was time to take a shower. He walked into the bathroom and turned on the shower, when he was satisfied with the temperature of the water he got in the shower and let the water run down his much toned out body.
30 minutes later
After deciding what to wear and eating a quick breakfast, he headed out the door. To his surprise the bus hadn't picked up the other kids yet, "Bus must be running late," he thought to himself. He walked down to the bus stop and greeted everyone, including the Eds.
"Sup Nazz and Rolf," he said once spotting his two best friends.
"Wow Kev, let me guess you overslept again this morning," commented Nazz, "You're lucky the bus driver is running late this morning or your ass would have been left."
"Yea I know, between afternoon practices and kicking it with you, Rolf, and Nat, my sleep schedule has been off."
"Casanova Kevin, should manage his time better, yes?" noted Rolf.
"Yea, whatever man."
After another ten minutes of idle chat, the bus appeared around the corner and stop to pick up the kids and take them to school.
When the bus reached the school, Kevin got off and greeted his fellow teammates at the entrance of the school.
On the other side of things, the three Eds all gather around Double D's locker discussing plans for scams. "Eddy I don't see how this proposed scam of yours will work," questioned the smartest Ed.
"Don't worry Sockhead, all you gotta do is built the machine while Ed look for parts," shot back Eddy.
"Oh, and do tell what your involvement will be in this ridiculous plot?" asked Double D
"Why I'll do what I do best, and that is stand there and look pretty," respond Eddy with a sly grinned plastered across his face.
While in the midst of discussing their upcoming scheme, Kevin and Nat passed by them. Kevin glanced over and recognized the three Eds. "Well looky here Nat, if it isn't Dork, Dork, and Dorky," teased their childhood bully.
"What do you want Shovelchin," commented Eddy rather annoyed.
"We couldn't help but over hear your little conversation, and if you think twice about scamming us, we'll pound you into the next millennium," said Kevin, who was now face to face with Eddy.
While Kevin and Eddy continued to exchange words, Double D stood there fidgeting with his fingers. Double D really never liked confrontation which is why he always tried to avoid it whenever possible. "Eddy can we please go?" asked Double D rather nervously not making eye contact with either one.
"Awe, what's your hurry Double Cutie?" asked a very flirtatious Nat
Before Double D could offer a response, the warning bell ranged signaling it was time to head class. Without hesitation Double D collected his items and his two friends and walked down the hall towards their classroom
Kevin and Nat, seeing that the Dorks was leaving, decided to take their leave themselves. "You seen how nervous Double Dude was?" Nat asked curiously
"Yeah, which really confuses me, because he gets like that every time I'm around," answered back Kevin.
"You been crushing on him since like forever dude, when are you gonna confess your undying love to him," joked Nat
Kevin glared at his teal headed friend and playfully punched his arm, "Shutup Nat, and to answer your question I'll do it when I feel the time is right."
Truth be told Kevin didn't know when the time will ever be right to tell Double D how he felt. He didn't even know he had feelings for the dork, until their sophomore year when they were forced to being in a group together to work on a science project. It was then when Kevin found out the he was bi-sexual; however, fearing that may cause people to turn on him, he only told Nazz, Nat, and Rolf of his feelings knowing they would never judge him.
"I guess dude, but for now we better get to class before we're late."
