AN: *wiggles eyebrows.* If you're reading this then welcome to this weird collection of my random KevEdd and Ed, Ed, n Eddy drabbles and one-shots! I didn't feel like creating multiple individual stories for each drabble or one-shot so I decided to place them all here. This collection doesn't have a certain update schedule so it will be updated randomly. Enjoy! XOXO!

"Eddward, are you okay?" Kevin called from the doorway that led into their shared bedroom. Turning his head slowly, worry and sympathy quickly crossed Kevin's face before disappearing altogether. His beloved nerd was sitting cross-legged on their king size bed surrounded by a bunch of books and papers. His hair was matted, due to his unruly curls not being brushed, dark circles danced around the bottom of his eyes, and his skin was unnaturally pale.

"I'm fine." Eddward said quickly, diverting his eyes back to the stack of papers and open book in his lap. Dropping his bag at the door, Kevin crossed the room and climbed into the bed, sitting next to Eddward. Looking down, Kevin realized that all the papers and books that surrounded them were completed and graded homework assignments, papers, lab reports, and even a note from his professor commenderading him on a job well done.

"You worry too much." Kevin whispered into his ear, wrapping his arms around Eddward and pulling him into his chest. "Everything's going to be fine. They'll be complete idiots if they reject your work," Kevin reassured him. For the past year and a half, Eddward has been working nonstop on his dissertation concerning the cellular structure of the body and how it's incomplete and deserves more research. Kevin, on the other hand, knew college wasn't for him and stuck to his nature of working on cars. Taking out a small business loan, he opened his own mechanic shop and supported himself and Eddward every step of the way; especially this last year.

It's been a long journey for the two. After graduating high school and parting ways, who would have guessed that the childhood nerd and bully would meet once again. Their reunion was actually comical. With Eddward's nonexistent athletic skills, an energetic Shih Tzu named Duke, and an innocent bystander with a red baseball hat was the perfect components to the best reunion. Chasing Duke, who escaped his collar, down the street and tumbling over Kevin in the process, is quite a comical site. After that, as they say, the rest is history.

"I feel as if I missed something…" Eddward mumbled to himself.

"You did not," Kevin reassured him by rubbing his shoulder gently.

"You don't know that!" Eddward said, frustration taking him over. Running his hands through his hair, Eddward looked as if he was about to cry. The restless nights and lack of food was finally catching up to him.

"You're right, I don't. But I do know that if you did miss something, which is not likely, it's too late. You submitted your dissertation for review a week ago." Kevin pointed out. "So," he added by closing the book in Eddward's lap, "relax." Eddward finally looked up from the books and pile of papers to be met by the most greenest eyes he's ever seen. "It'll be okay." A soft smile broke across Eddward's face as Kevin kissed him on the forehead. "Trust me."

"I love you."

"I love you too." With that, Eddward cuddled into Kevin's arms and slowly willed himself asleep for some much-needed rest. Kevin wasn't tired even though he worked a full shift at the shop. He just sat there and held Eddward in his arms, watching him sleep.
