Chapter 1

The Secret Kiss

Edd hadn't been day dreaming that long. In fact, he drifted off to sleep occasionally as he knew everything the teacher was going to teach that year. Not to mention he works on his journal before he goes off to bed.

"BUZZ!" Edd's phone vibrated in his pocket, waking him from his daily power nap.

It was a text from a number he hadn't recognized.

"meet me da unused showr in da lockr room aftr skool"

Edd was a little frightened. Someone must be pulling a prank. He wanted to ignore it, closing his flip phone. He knew curiosity would have gotten the better of him anyway, so he decided to go after school.

"RING!" As the lunch bell rang, Edd shoved his textbook into his backpack, slung it over his shoulder and headed out to the cafeteria.

A shoulder bumped him as he walked out of the classroom door. Edd turned to see Kevin, his neighborhood bully. He didn't hate him, he knew his life was rough as he heard Kevin's father beat him night after night. But wait, why was he smiling? Kevin walked nonchalantly to the cafeteria. Edd couldn't figure out why Kevin was acting like that, he'd usually call him a Double dweeb and pull his beanie over his eyes.

In the cafeteria, most of the tables were filled. Edd's group, along with Ed and Eddy, sat in the corner of the cafeteria by the trashcans. Sure it stunk but he was content with it as long as his friends stayed by him. Grabbing his lunchbox from his backpack, he sat down in front of Eddy and Ed.

"So, what's the deal with this weekend? Are we gonna chill at my house? My mom left her weed stash before heading out with her weekend guy." Ed just laughed as Eddy made the smoking gesture.

"I don't know. I've got some chores to do at home. I will call you if I end up going so don't smoke it all." Edd whispered.

After lunch, classes proceeded as usual. Edd kept thinking about who could have sent him that text message before lunch. His mind raced as thought maybe it was a bully pulling a trick on him. Maybe it was a girl who texted him on a dare. He stared at the clock until the last bell of the day rang. His palms sweat and his cheeks flushed as he walked slowly to the boy's locker room in the gym.

"BA-BUMP, BA-BUMP." His heart pounded in his chest, nervous and frightened. It was dark in the locker room except for the light through the small, barred window above the some of the lockers. The last shower curtain was closed. Placing his backpack on the bench nearby the locker room, he crept closer and closer to the shower curtain, his heart still pounding.

A hand grabbed his t-shirt and pulled him into the stall. Then a sensation erupted from his lips. Was someone kissing him? It didn't smell like a girl, but it was exciting. His loins felt hot, unsure of what to do. Just when he was about to grab the person kissing him, they pulled away. It was too dark to see who it was, but they covered his eyes and left before he could see who it was.

Edd couldn't sleep that night. He kept tossing and turning. The scent stayed in his nose, unable to forget the feeling he got from it. It smelled oddly familiar but was unsure who it was. It was intoxicating, the scent caused his spine to shiver, his loins still hot from it. Would he really sacrifice a load of sperm for his sexual gratification? That night, yes he would.

The next morning, he woke up to a small mess in his shorts and a smile on his face. Edd shook his head. "Oh dear, I must shower and get ready for the day." Looking at the clock he noticed it was almost noon. He had never slept that long before!

After showering, he went to the kitchen and ate a bowl of cereal before he did his weekend chores.

"Hey Eddward, don't forget to do the laundry. I'll be out all weekend, so be sure to eat. I know sometimes you forget when you're busy." His mother gave him a kiss on the cheek, grabbed her small suitcase and headed out the door. Edd cleaned off the kitchen counter as he listened to his mothers car drive away.

Edd was startled when he heard a knock at the door. Opening the door, he saw a note attached to a small box. He grabbed it quickly before heading inside.

"Our kiss was awesome.

Enjoy my present. There are clues in the box. Figure me out.

Love you dork."

Why am I blushing? He thought to himself. His mind raced as he opened the box slowly. A Rubix cube was inside, clues on each side of the cube.

After his chores, Edd sat in his bedroom with the cube, shifting each piece before he completed the cube when the sun set. Edd sighed and looked at his phone. He had a few text messages from Eddy.

"dude get over here i got a ton of weed"

"u aint answrin so u probly busy"

"dude sum1 is ur house they dressd in black"

"shit man hes riding a bike"

"we r sooo high rite now"

Shaking it off, he noticed it was already after 8. "I need to eat dinner." Edd went downstairs and put a pizza in the oven, setting the timer for 20 minutes.

He ran upstairs to grab the cube and headed back down. Edd began to read each side carefully, noticing it was the same handwriting as the letter.

CLUES:

Redhead

Freckles

Bully

baseball cap

bike rider

lives in the same neighborhood

Alright, his clues narrowed down his possible secret admirers. Luckily, he kept his yearbook from the previous year to keep himself somewhat social.

"DING!" The oven went. Edd ran downstairs with his yearbook and clues in hand to grab himself a slice or two of pizza and sat down at the kitchen table.

Munching on his pizza, he narrowed the clues down to redheads living in his area. There weren't a lot redheads in his neighborhood, but he knew who it was.

"K-Kevin..." He whispered to himself. "My secret admirer is... Kevin."
