3 love you all and thank you!
Edd stood awkwardly staring at his shorter, stocky friend. "Eddy, I do not feel comfortable in this situation!" He pulled at the neckline of a light pink summer dress. "This is humiliating."
The stocky boy rolled his eyes, and pulled a short blond wig out of a box that had "Halloween" written on the side. "It is only for a few weeks sock head. Quit complaining." He placed the blond wig on Edd, and shook his head. "All you have to do is become good friends with Naz."
"My presumption is that you have more in mind for this scam." Edd crossed his arms at Eddy.
"Listen." Eddy stopped pilfering through a ton of wigs, and turned towards Edd. "You have to get close to Naz, and constantly talk about how amazing I am. How strong, witty, handsome I am." He flexed his non-existent muscles as if to prove his point. "This isn't a scam, just a way to get Naz to realize how perfect I am for her."
Edd rolled his eyes. "If that is what you want to believe Eddy, you can go right ahead." He grabbed a shoulder-length black wig from the box and fit it on his head. "What I don't understand is why I have to dress up like a female, and do your dirty work."
He rolled his eyes at Edd again. "A chic will take another chic's advice before she will listen to any of a guy's."
"Well isn't that a sexist comment." Edd sighed and stepped into a pair of black flats. He didn't know why he was going with this plot of Eddy's. This was just going to end up in humiliation like all the other things he made them do. All throughout junior high, Eddy played him and Ed like puppets to do with bidding. No matter the consequences, no matter the circumstance, Eddy always had an idea for a scam. It was because of Eddy that almost no one in the cul-de-sac enjoyed Double D's company, and why he attained the stature of being bullied everyday at school. He was weak hearted when he first met those two, and desperate to have any friend. After all he grew up alone in his house, because his parents were always away with work. So when they accepted him as a friend, he didn't want to risk losing them. Now that they were in high school, Double D started to distance himself from them. In turn he began using his free time to actually join school clubs. He met a few friends in the science club, and even got invited to a few study parties.
"Double D looks like a girl Eddy!" Ed cried out joyfully, and stopping Edd's inner thoughts. "He looks like a pretty girl!"
"Why thank you Ed, that is uh...considerate of you." Double D smiled awkwardly at his large friend. Ed was a nice soul, what he lacked in intelligence he made up for in heart.
"Of course Double D" Ed put on his lopsided smile.
"Will you two quit yakkin'! Hey Sock head, get over to Naz's place and start talking to her" He started pushing Edd towards the road.
"Eddy will you quit pushing, I do have my own feet." Edd sighed as the pushing didn't stop. Out of the corner of his eye he saw a red motorcycle driving very slowly down the cul-de-sac road. The coat of paint on the bike glistened in the sun, and Edd felt himself smile slightly. Then, out of nowhere, a car came speeding up to the hill that leads into the cul-de-sac. Double D felt his heart start racing. That car wasn't stopping! "Eddy, Look!" He squealed, pointing over to the impending doom. "We have to warn him!" He pushed away from Eddy's grip and started running towards the speeding pursuit.
"Double D stop! You can get hurt too!" Eddy yelled after his running friend.
"The car doesn't see him, once he gets over that hill they will collide!" As he said the words the car came flying up to the top of the hill, and the driver was looking into the rearview mirror instead of watching the road.
"Ed, go get him." Eddy said desperately at his friend beside him. Ed nodded and ran after Double D, and tackled him to the ground just as the car and the motorcycle collided. The rider of the bike was thrown from the bike and landed with his head first on the concrete, and blood started to pool around him. The headphones he had been wearing flew from his ears and landed in the opposite direction. The bike skidded across the pavement in a shower of sparks, and landed right in front of the two on the ground. Ed saw the bike, and grabbed Double D by the waist, and started running in the opposite direction.
"Ed! What are you doing?! We have to get to Kevin, that head wound needs to be catered to immediately.
"Sparks, hose...fire." Is all that Ed grunted out as an answer. However, as soon as he did the bike caught on fire and heat radiated over Edd's face.
"Oh...Ed..." Double D stared at the flames that were consuming the bike, and everything around it. "Thank you..." Tears sprang to his eyes. "Ed...go check on the driver, I'm going to go check on Kevin." Ed stared at the fire momentarily before finally nodding and letting the lanky boy down, and running off towards the damaged car. He looked back for a second to see Eddy on the phone gesturing wildly to someone on the other end.
On the other side of the wreckage Double D ran to the injured boy on the ground. His head was bleeding, and his face was blank of all expression. "No...you can't be dead." His heart rapped against his ribs as he tried to find a pulse. When he felt a fluttering pulse his own heart started to slow down. He instantly stripped his shirt of and applied light pressure to the head wound, careful not to move his spine. The sound of sirens blared the background, and a small sense of relief washed over him. Kevin might make it, and he wasn't going to die in his arms. He stared at the boy's light face, and gently wiped the rocks out of the abrasion on his face. He was surprised by how soft the skin around the wounds were, despite being close to mulched. Edd cringed thinking about the scar the boy was going to have on his face. Then he stopped and smiled slightly, thinking about how cute that would be. "what..." His face turned bright red, and he continued to hold his bloody shirt to the boys head until a paramedic released him of his duties. Double D stood staring at the paramedics move fast trying to safely put Kevin in the ambulance. "Wait!" He called as the began to close to door. "I'm going to ride with him...I'm his friend." The man stared at him of a moment and shrugged and nodded. Double D nodded and jumped in the front, and looked out the window at his two friends. Eddy talking to a cop, while Ed lounged next to another cop while he was handcuffing the driver of the car. As the ambulance drove by he caught both of the eye's, and noticed the confusion harboring inside of them. To be honest he was confused himself, he didn't know why he was going to the hospital neither. All he knew is that he felt like he needed to go.
