alright guys time to throw an OC your way. He's been floating around in my head for a while now and decided to finally give him a shot. this will be my first story I actually feel willing to post so bring on the feedback lol.
Chapter 1: who's the new guy?
have you ever had the feeling that sometimes you just don't belong? even among friends and family there seems to be that gap. a void that fills you yet slowly eats you from within, bearing upon you that unmistakable feeling we all have known; Loneliness.
Jake sighed as he squinted at the rising sun before putting his shades on and straddling his motorcycle. "today is going to be a long day" he thought to himself as he stuck the key into the ignition and pressed the electric start. the bike came to life with a deep rumble, getting louder as he throttled up the bike to warm the engine before he took off for the last leg of his trip.
Summer vacation had just started for all of the kids in peach creek and it seemed everybody was enjoying it by sleeping the morning away. everybody that is, except for Double D. His prompt schedule and early morning chores wouldn't allow for any sort of laziness or procrastination, and honestly he wouldn't have it any other way. even though he and all of his friends would be seniors in the upcoming school year, Double D vowed to himself not to be taken by the "senior-itis" that seemed to take hold of most high school teenagers in their final year of academics.
"Oh my, he'll be here soon." Double D thought to himself as he was finishing up the last of his chores. just as he was finishing, he heard a faint low rumbling outside of the house. "I wonder what that could be?" He said aloud as he briskly walked to his front door, cracking it open slowly to inquire as to what the odd sound was. as he stepped out onto the front porch he realized the sound was coming from down the street and slowly growing louder. "Could that perhaps be jake?" He pondered to himself. "He's rather punctual today." As he looked down at his watch to see that it was 0900 on the dot.
As jake slowly rolled up the cul-de-sac he assessed the houses, vaguely remembering the setup from a prior visit when he was younger with his parents. While searching trying to remember which house was Double D's, he saw a young man waving from his porch signaling him to pull up. He cut the engine as he pulled into the driveway and put his kickstand down as he got off his bike. He was much taller than Double D, standing at an even 6'5" compared to the 5'10" of edd, seeming to get his height from his fathers side. Besides being tall, Jake was much more muscular due to his father training him in boxing and kickboxing as well. He pulled off his bandana from his head revealing short cropped black hair,similar in color to both his and edds mothers as they were sisters. After the bandana came the shades revealing hazel eyes to complete the picture. All in all edd had to admit that jake had grown into a rather handsome individual. "Cousin!" Jake said as edd walked up to him. "How have you been? Its been too long!""Quite so, i am fine myself. How are you doing jake?" Edd asked "You do know it's extremely dangerous to ride that two wheeled death machine without a helmet." "Yeah, yeah..." Retorted jake, "lots of things are dangerous now a days." "I just wish for your safe being especially because of how your..." Said edd not realizing that what he was just about to say was a very touchy subject still. "What, how my parents died? Thanks for the lovely reminder cuz..." Said a now solemn jake. "I am terribly sorry for my previous statement jake, i apologize." Said a concerned edd. "... It's fine, don't worry about it. Could we just not talk about it right now? I've had a long ride and just want to relax a bit" jake sighed as he sat down on the porch. leaning back, he unzipped his leather riding jacket and took it off placing it next to him.
"i hope you don't mind my asking, but where are the rest of your possessions? I thought you had a car as well?" Questioned edd trying to change the subject a bit. "oh, it's on it's way."jake said while stretching. "I have a couple buddies driving the uhaul and car here because i wanted to get here first to check things out. They should be here later today." "i see. Well hopefully they will find the house without too much trouble." Edd pondered aloud as he walked up the steps next to jake. "well, if you would please follow me. I'll show you around the house and to your room." "awesome. thanks cuz... It's really nice of your parents to let me stay here till i get on my own two feet." Jake said as he followed edd into the house.
Double D gave a short but thurough tour, ending it at the door of jakes new room. "And here you are jake. This will be your room and mine is the one right next to it, so if you need anything feel free to ask." "sweet." Said jake as he opened up the door and walked in taking in the feel of his new room. "home sweet home." Edd smiled as jake gave him a thumbs up and asked "are you hungry? I was just about to make breakfast when i heard your approach." "Heck yeah man, im famished" replied jake as they both walked downstairs.
"what the hell was making all that racket?" A groggy eddy mumbled as he stumbled out of bed to take a look outside. By that time several other kids had also gotten up due to the rude awakening caused by the bike. As they all got dressed and came out one by one, checking out what caused all the noise, they noticed the bike sitting in double d's driveway. As they gathered around to see whats up, more and more kids had shown up until the whole gang was there. Eddy and ed broke off from the group and walked over to double d's door and gave it half a knock before inviting themselves in. "hey sockhead!" Yelled eddy "who's roadster is sittin' in the driveway? Its a nice ride!" "it's mine." Replied jake from the kitchen "who's askin?" Eddy and ed turned the corner to see jake and double d sitting at the counter eating breakfast. Eddy stood there puzzled for a second before asking "hey, sockhead. Who's the new guy?"
