It's nice out, Jonny thought. He was sitting alone at a table in Peach Creek High School's cafeteria, taking hearty bites out of a green apple. It was spring, and outside the air was getting warmer and trees were sprouting leaves. Today in particular was beautiful. It was the sort of day where you could feel the sun's rays beating down on you, filling you with a warmth and serene happiness that you couldn't get any other way.
Finishing his apple, Jonny decided that it'd be a waste to sit inside all lunch. Picking up his drawing pad and chucking away the apple core, Jonny made his way out of the cafeteria. Two steps away from the door, goosebumps rose on his tanned arms and Jonny stopped. He could feel a moment fast approaching, and he didn't want to miss it.
Jonny turned around and leaned his gangly body against the nearby wall. His eyes strained and scoured the cafeteria, searching. Then he saw it. Ed, Edd and Eddy were sitting together as usual. Eddy was ranting and shouting to the other two, whatever it was about didn't matter though, at least not to Jonny. It didn't factor into this moment. Edd was staring at Eddy, an anger growing and growing behind his eyes. It seemed to be trying to push its way out. Edd didn't seem to be in a mood to fight it, as he slammed his toothpick arms down on the table, shaking the trays and knocking a milk carton over. He shouted at Eddy, neck veins straining. He kept shouting for a full minute and the longer he continued, the angrier Edd became and the quieter everyone else was in the cafeteria. Then, as if Edd was cut off from the well he had been drawing from, he stopped and looked around sheepishly.
He quickly slung his bookbag around his shoulder and left the cafeteria along with a silent Ed and Eddy. Slowly the other students began to talk again and sound returned to full force. Only Ed and Eddy stayed silent. Ed was trying to understand what had just happened, and you could see the confusion and turmoil on his face. Eddy, on the other hand was absolutely seething and pissed.
Probably at Edd, Jonny thought. In hindsight, Jonny was surprised it hadn't happened sooner. There had always been a bit of tension between Ed and Eddy, but in recent weeks something, Jonny wasn't sure what, no one told him anything, something had created real friction between them. Their friendship was getting more and more strained, and Jonny supposed today was the day the camel's back broke. That was it, Ed and Eddy's friendship was over and the trio of Eds broken up, whatever it meant for them.
Still, no use to wonder about things he couldn't find out or at least not to do it outside, Jonny thought as he pushed away from the wall and walked outside. He sat down at the top of a green hill and put his drawing pad down. His scarred hand searched his pocket for his MP3. After a moment, Jonny found it and raised his hand victoriously. Then he began the arduous task of untangling the cords and popped each headphone in an ear. Scrolling through the glowing screen's menus, Jonny selected his personal playlist.
The music began to beat and flow through his veins and Jonny could feel inspiration coming. He grabbed the drawing pad; it was brand new besides a sketch of Plank on the first page. His good hand gripped a pencil and began to move over the blank page. Jonny was going to capture that moment, with the sun shining down on him and the music blasting throughout him.
A/N: A fitting introduction for this fanfiction, I think. There isn't going to be a main plotline for this fanfiction. I'm planning on having it be a collection of one-shots, as I prefer getting a nice, intimate glimpse at a moment (plus I hate writing out long-form stories). But who knows, that might change Anyway, that's all! Please review, people! I'd sure appreciate it!
