The story is for Princess Devy and her birthday. Happy Birthday!
Tonight was Nazz's epic annual New Year's Eve party and the whole cul-de-sac was invited as usual. Everyone knew this was going to be the last of the parties for a while, as Nazz was going to be going to university in California, so it was going to be big. This party would just so happen to be the first one Eddward Vincent would be going to, as he tended to stay by himself more often as boisterous parties were not his cup of tea. But he decided to go for Nazz this one time because let's face it; he still harbored a small crush for her. It had just been over a couple years ago that he had come out to the other Eds as bisexual. It didn't bother them as much as he thought it would; so he figured that he would spend this evening informing the rest of his friends. Edd wasn't sure how they would react, but knew his best friends would be there to support him.
Eddward decided to dress in a pair of slim black skinny jeans, a large green sweater, and his signature black striped beanie. The attire looked clean enough for the party, but casual enough for friends. As he straightened his beanie, he could hear Eddy knocking on his door.
"I'm coming Eddy, give me a moment please." The knocking picked up speed and strength, sounding more like a hammer on wood. With a huff Edd hurried down the stairs and slipped his shoes on and opened the door, but not to Ed and Eddy, but to Kevin Barr. The handsome young man from across the street had his hand raised to beat the door again.
"W-w-why hello Kevin! What brings you here? Surely everything is okay?"
Kevin looked at the dork in front of him; hardly registering what he was saying.
"What? Oh yeah, everything's fine man. Eddy wanted me to come over and escort you to the party. I'm not sure why, but oh well." Eddward blushed at Kevin's words. Eddy knew that his friend had a crush on Kevin and teased him relentlessly for it.
"I am grateful for your assistance Kevin. Shall we be on our way?"
Kevin offered his arm to the shorter boy and Edd hooked his arm through and off they went to Nazz's. They arrived to their destination and could already hear the music from the end of the driveway.
"Are Nazz's parties always this loud?" Edd asked his companion.
"Yeah, usually. No one has complained about it yet."
Edd scrunched his nose and tongued the gap in his teeth.
"You gonna be alright Sockhead?"
Edd nodded, blushing again from the old nickname. "I'm just not used to these situations. I'm sure I'll be okay."
The friends arrived to the door and Edd braced himself for the roar that was about to consume him. Kevin opened it and the night's revelries were just starting. They walked in on Ed and Rolf racing on who could finish their beer bong first. Sarah and Jimmy were all nestled in a corner, cuddling, and each had a beer; as Nazz was not going to let them drink the harder alcohols the rest of them would be drinking. Eddy was chatting with Nazz, his frivolous hand motions indicating that he was attempting to woo the hostess. Johnny had moved overseas to his grandparents in the United Kingdom; his parents believing that the cul-de-sac was negatively affecting his growth.
Edd took a couple of deep breaths to calm and gather himself as Nazz could be seen waving them in.
"Hey guys! Took you two long enough!" Nazz shouted. She gave them each a small plastic cup. "Drink up boys! It's gonna be a long night!"
Edd cringed as the alcohol burned his throat and he started coughing. Nazz cackled as Kevin slapped him on the back, attempting to hold in his laughter.
"You alright there D? I take it you're not a drinker?"
"My parents allow me to drink a glass of wine every once in a while." Edd croaked. "Nothing really hard like this though. Please tell me you have something that's easier to swallow?"
Nazz had to think for a second. "Yeah, I have some Cruzan rum. It's blueberry-lemonade and tastes delicious mixed with mango juice. I'll go make a you some." Nazz then sashayed away to the kitchen to make the poor boy something to drink.
Edd turned to Eddy and whispered in his ear, "Do we know how I'll be letting everyone know?"
"Yeah Double D. We're gonna play a Truth or Dare and when it's my turn I'll have you answer a truth about being bisexual or whatever and it'll be done. Piece of cake."
"I hope so Eddy. I surely hope so."
A couple hours, bottles of rum, and bottles of whiskey; everyone was ready to play Truth or Dare. Nazz went first as she was hostess. She dared Rolf to smell one of Ed's feet… which led to Rolf vomiting into a trash can. And thus it continued from there for a few rounds until it was Eddy's turn to pick. Everyone expected him to pick Kevin, as the redhead had dared him to chug a beer out of a shoe, but instead he picked Edd. All eyes turned to the beanie clad figure.
"Truth or dare Double D?"
"I choose truth." Everyone groaned a little as that is all he had chosen.
"Alright Sockhead. Is it true that you are bi?" Everyone chuckled at this, but went silent when Edd answered with a quiet "Yes". No one could believe it. Eddward Vincent was bi. Edd was about to breath a sigh of relief when Sarah, the rotten bitch, decided to speak up.
"So you're a fucking queer? Wonderful. Now there goes the neighborhood, he's just going to pollute the air with is unholy breath. I hope you know God will punish you for your sins you fucking faggot."
Tears started streaming down Eddward's face as the words stabbed him in the heart.
"Come on now Sarah that wasn't neces-" Nazz was interrupted as Edd suddenly stood up and fled out the front door into the night. The group fell silent.
"Sarah," Johnny's small voice started, growing in volume. "I CANNOT BELIEVE YOU. THAT WAS COMPLETELY MEAN AND UNNECESSARY. THIS PARTY WAS GOING GREAT UNTIL YOU HAD TO BIBLE BEAT. EDDWARD DID NOTHING TO DESERVE YOUR HATRED. I HAVE SAT BY FOR TOO LONG LISTENING TO YOU DISREGARD PEOPLE'S LIVES. I'M DONE WITH YOU AND YOUR HIPPOCRITIC WAYS. GOODBYE!" And with that, Jimmy left; leaving behind a crying Sarah.
During Jimmy's tirade, no one noticed the redhead slip out after Edd, carrying his shoes.
