Hello there readers, after spending a week away from writing, I have finally gotten to making this brand new story that I came up with.
First of all, I must apologize for this delay, I was on vacation last week, and yesterday I had a doctor's appointment to go to. I hope you all can understand why it took me so long to start developing this story.
Now as far as this story goes, it's simply this; this is a completely different approach of the episode 'Smile for the Ed', with Andrew and Chaosky in the mix. For this story, Eddy actually wins this time, thanks to Andrew with assistance from Ed and Double D. Eddy does get a fresh new photo taken from his friends and wins, but all this comes with a catch, for Andrew then gets the humiliation courtesy of Kevin after he finds an embarrassing photo of Andrew and all the kids and Kankers laugh at his humiliation and Andrew then breaks down for the first time ever, after they step on a nerve from the past. Chaosky also serves an important role here too, just so you all know.
Also, this story will show off some Hidden Depths to Andrew, revealing that his early life wasn't all happy and full of smiles, and also shows that he's capable of crying and getting depressed, and show that Andrew isn't the perfect person you think he is. In addition to that, this story will show some character development towards Eddy, in terms of his 'friendship' with Andrew and starts to think about every good thing Andrew has done since he moved there. Just so you all know.
Another thing, this story will have a much more serious tone to it, due to the depression Andrew goes through, and Chaosky lashing out at the kids for what they did, among other stuff. This story will also show Andrew if the other kids feel regret for what they did and if they are really his friends at all, and if they were, they would give a sincere apology that's meaningful.
One more thing, only a couple of the characters will actually show some distaste towards Andrew, based on how they originally show no remorse towards how hurt Andrew was emotionally. Hope that doesn't come as a surprise.
Well, enough with this long author note, I'll say more stuff by the end of this chapter, especially since this'll be a multi chapter story. That being said, let's start the first chapter of this story now! Enjoy the story everyone!

PEACH CREEK JR. HIGH:
School photos, the type of photos that are necessarily taken and planned by the school board to be used for the school yearbook and be given as a copy of the photo to be given to the parents of the kids that had their photos taken. Today was in fact, school photo day as all the kids were lining up in the gymnasium to have their photos taken for the yearbook and for the parents to see. All of the kids, including Andrew were hyped for today as they each got their photos taken one by one.
Eddy in particular, was getting extra prepared for the school photo today. Believe it or not, his mom had promised him the keys to his brothers' room if his school photo for this year was decent enough for her. Since then, Eddy had been getting all prepped up and looking in good condition for the school photo today.
When it came to Eddy finally getting his picture taken, Eddy was more than ready to have it taken. He was all smiling for the camera, waiting for the picture to be taken…only for Kevin to be a huge dickhead by messing up his photo by shouting 'DORK' and messing up his face. Originally this was only a minor issue as in the music class, Eddy was all panicked about the messed up photo he was given, stating that he can't give this to his mom and that it needs to be disposed of. He wanted Ed to dispose of it properly, but unfortunately, it got worse, for Ed idiotically disposed of it improperly to the point where Kevin got possession of it and Nazz and Rolf got a look of Eddy's face and Kevin decided to make Eddy's life worse than it should be…
Sometime later, in the hallway, the Eds along with Andrew were talking amongst each other about Double D planning on taking a second photo for Eddy and Andrew had the perfect secluded room where no one would interfere. Double D saw a piece of paper in Eddy's locker and pulled it out, wondering what it could be.
"Ain't you supposed to be taking my school photo?" Eddy asked, getting rather impatient.
"Try to wait it out a bit longer Eddy," Andrew assured him. "We just gotta get to that secluded room where no one can interfere."
"I hope your right about that squirt," Eddy retorted.
Andrew was about to say something positive when something else fell out of Eddy's locker and onto his face. Eddy noticed that it was his photo.
"MY PHOTO! Huh?" Eddy grew panicked and saw that every locker had a copy of his dreaded photo. "They're all over the–"
The bell rings and Eddy gets even more paranoid.
"AAAH!" Eddy hastily snatches the photos from each of the lockers and then hears Kevin, Nazz and Rolf laughing nearby. Andrew heard this too and took a look. The three kids were laughing at Eddy's photo in a rather crude manner showing they had stuff with Eddy's photo on it. Andrew was shocked at this, feeling that the kids might be being too cruel to Eddy today, especially since he has done nothing to deserve it.
"I knew it!" Eddy shouts as he rushes and snatches all of the photos from their possessions and run pasts the copy room, where the machine was making copies of something. Said something was revealed to be Eddy's photo which got Eddy's full attention.
"OH NO!" Eddy screams as he rushes to do something about it. His friends Ed, Double D and Andrew see him rush in there and decided to follow him.
"Eddy, wait. Perhaps we should–" Double D tries to tell him but Eddy hands him a stack load of the photos.
"We gotta ditch these pronto!" Eddy proclaimed in panicked collecting the remaining photos from the lockers.
"Pronto's my middle name!" Ed stated while carrying the copier. "No wait, it's Horace."
"In here, Ed!" Eddy informs him motioning towards the opened locker.
"I think I have a paper cut." Double D groaned putting the stack of photos in the locker.
"Beep, beep, beep, beep, beep–" Ed backed up like a vehicle and Eddy was about to shove the copier in before Double D stopped him.
"But that photocopier's school property!" Double D shouted. "Students use that!"
"But Sockhead this is important," Eddy tried to tell him. "If that photo ever gets out for my mom to see, I can kiss my brother's room goodbye!"
"Hold on there a minute Eddy," Andrew spoke up while turning off the copier. "I think I have a better idea on how to resolve this."
"And what idea do you have in mind Mr. Know-It-All," Eddy snorted.
"I have a paper shredder at home, I have already asked Chaosky if we can bring it to the school," Andrew exclaimed. "He should be coming back to the school with it in a bit."
"You sure that's going to work squirt," Eddy asked, starting to doubt that Andrew would know what he's doing.
"Look Eddy, I might not be good with certain stuff at times, but I'm doing you a favor," Andrew informed him. "I'm doing this, for a friend."
"Right," Eddy scoffed. "I bet there's more photos though."
"Most likely, so let's get all the photos into the locker and wait until Chaosky comes with the paper shredder," Andrew explained. "After that, we'll have a fresh photo taken for you Eddy."
"Alright," Eddy decided to go with it, feeling desperate at this point to have a fresh photo being taken.
While Ed put the copier back into its rightful spot (as commanded by Double D), Eddy and Andrew worked towards retrieving the remaining photos and putting them into the locker until Chaosky came back with the paper shredder, unaware that they might have missed some photos and Kevin decided to take this as the perfect opportunity to torture Eddy some more…
Sometime later, the Eds and Andrew entered the cafeteria where they were planning on spending their lunch. The moment Eddy walked in did his face drop and was horrified by what he saw; his face was plastered all over the walls courtesy of his photos that were copied. It got worse when he saw that all of the kids were wearing face masks of the photos of himself, including Plank. Eddy was starting to get traumatized.
"Hey look, it's the Dorky Dork himself," Kevin announced in a mocking manner.
All the kids laughed cruelly at Eddy and the state he was in.
"IT'S A NIGHTMARE I TELL YA!" Eddy screamed.
"OH NO!" Andrew now looked concerned for Eddy as did Double D.
It was then revealed that the Kankers also joined in on the torturing of Eddy as all three of them were wearing the same face masks that the kids were wearing, with Lee being underneath the table as she then dragged Eddy underneath and decided to have her way with him.
"Muaah! Stop kissing yourself. Muaah! Stop kissing yourself. Muaah! Stop kissing yourself. Muaah! Stop kissing yourself. Muaah!" Lee kept smooching him with the photo in a rather harsh manner.
"HELP ME!" Eddy cried for help as Ed and Double D slammed the door and Andrew kept watching Eddy get kissed against his will, seemingly concerned for his well being.
"GUYS WE HAVE TO DO SOMETHING TO SAVE EDDY, QUICK," Andrew shouted. "HE'S BEING TRAUMATIZED IN THERE!"
"I know Andrew, give me a moment to think," Double D then saw the speaker and got an idea. "I have a way to resolve all of this!"
"And what would your idea be Double D," Andrew asked, a look of hope in his eyes.
Double D then leaned into Andrew's ear and then whispered the plan to him, which got Andrew all shocked and concerned.
"WHAT!?" Andrew cried. "Double D you can't do that! You'll get yourself a detention for impersonating the principal!"
"Well we got to do something!" Double D shouted desperately.
"Luckily, I have a better idea," Andrew snapped his fingers. "I can disguise myself as a school security officer, get all the kids to hand over the photos and if they don't I'll report them to the principal and have him give all of them a forced detention for not following orders and for traumatizing Eddy! No one will find out about that!"
"That sounds wonderful Andrew, but how are you going to disguise yourself," Double D questioned.
"I've come prepared," Andrew pulled on a string pulley and then instantly changes his clothings into a security guard, completely disguised and unnoticeable. "What do you think guys?"
"Wow Andrew, you're hardly recognizable," Double D complimented.
"Hey mister officer, have you seen Andrew," Ed questioned, being fooled by the disguised.
"Told ya, now let me do this correctly," Andrew took out a megaphone and turned it on. "Now to put this into action, for Eddy's sake!"
Andrew then put the plan into action…
In the cafeteria, Eddy was still being traumatized as the Kankers and the kids all continued to laugh cruelly at him, when suddenly, Andrew (disguised as a security guard) kicked the door opened and got their attention and they ceased their laughing.
"Ahem, excuse me students, I am the official security guard of this school," Andrew spoke into the megaphone, his voice completely unrecognizable. "I have come as a request from the school board to confiscate all of the photos that you all have in your possession! Failure to do so will result in all of you being reported to the principal, and you will all be given detention for a month and all of your parents will be informed of this and how you're bullying Eddy! AM I CLEAR!?"
The kids and Kankers saw this as a big deal so they didn't deny the security guard.
"You heard the man," Eddy was starting to feel better. "GIVE HIM THE PHOTOS!"
"Sheesh, fun's over…" Kevin retorted as they all gave the security guard Andrew the photos and they had to take down all the photos hanging on the walls too to avoid being given detentions.
"Good, now all of you leave and never attempt something like this ever again, or else…" Andrew spoke with warning in his voice.
Some of the kids groaned at this as they all left after Andrew had all the photos in his possession.
"Man, this bites," Kevin groaned. "I was having fun picking on the Dork…"
"What a killjoy," Sarah complained.
"That security guard seemed pretty cute though," Marie felt the need to comment.
"Cute but trouble," May snorted and giggled.
"Eh, forget him girls, let's just go," Lee informed them.
Andrew was sweating at Marie's comment and held himself together. Once the kids were gone, Andrew took the photos to the other two Eds as Eddy felt much better by this.
"See Double D, that went much better than what your plan would have done," Andrew took off the shades and fake mustache to reveal his true face.
"I get it Andrew, to think that me impersonating the principal would have landed Eddy a detention especially since he wouldn't have impersonated him with being bullied the way he was," Double D stated.
"Well that's not the case now, cause we got all the photos," Andrew informed him.
"Hey guys, you're not going to believe this!" Eddy approached them. "This security guard managed to put a stop to all those kids and confiscated all of those photos! This day is starting to get better."
"Eddy," Andrew turned to face him, still wearing the hat and uniform. "I was the one that disguised myself as an officer."
Needless to say, Eddy was somewhat impressed.
"Wow, how did you manage to pull that off squirt?"
Before Andrew could answer him, Chaosky came into the school with a paper shredder on hand at Andrew's request.
"Hey guys, I got the paper shredder like you asked for," Chaosky told them.
"Great job Chaosky," Andrew was hyped. "Now we can dispose of these photos properly without anyone digging them out again."
"Brilliant idea Andrew," Double D was ecstatic.
"Yup it is," Andrew then frowned for a minute. "Unfortunately, I have no skills with working with the paper shredder at all, and even though my dad left some instructions on how to use it, it's too complicated for me to figure out."
"I have the directions right here," Chaosky took out the paper that was the instructions for the shredder as Double D took them and examined it.
"Wait a minute, why would you have a paper shredder delivered to us if you don't know how to operate it," Eddy felt like asking.
Andrew responded by giving him a sincere smile.
"Because you are my friend Eddy, and I'm planning on helping my friend out. That's why I disguised myself as a security officer to help you out," Andrew explained. "And even though I have no idea how to operate it, it's the thought that counts."
Eddy was quite shocked by this. He would thank him, but unfortunately his pride and his somewhat big ego kept him from giving such words to him.
Before Eddy could even say anything, Double D having just examined the directions, started speaking.
"Luckily for you Andrew, I happened to understand how to operate the paper shredder and can help you out with your predicament," Double D explained. "And after that, we'll work on getting Eddy a fresh new photo of him."
"BINGO! It's great to have you around Double D," Eddy was excited. "OK Ed, get the remaining photos from my locker got it!?"
"YOU GOT IT EDDY!" Ed happily obeys and manages to open up Eddy's locker and retrieves the photos that were stuffed in it. He then carried the photos in a pile with the other photos that were confiscated from the kids and Kankers. Double D then managed to operate the paper shredder.
"The paper shredders operated and ready to be used gentlemen," Double D exclaimed.
"Excellent! Let's get to work guys!" Eddy shouted.
"Way ahead of you Eddy!" Andrew stated.
"I'm already at it Eddy," Ed stated as they started to shred up each photo one by one, being successful with shredding each and every one of them…
It took a good 20 to 30 minutes to shred up each photo and they finally shredded up the photos which were now in a plastic bag that was tied up as Chaosky volunteered to dispose of the bag of shredded papers to a garbage can outside. While he did that, it was time to put the next part of the plan into action.
"Okay Gentleman, time to get that second picture of Eddy taken," Double D proclaimed, getting out his camera.
"And I know of the perfect seclude location to go to too," Andrew pointed to a specific room. "I manage to get permission from the principal to use the room so we can privately get you a redo photo taken Eddy. And he told us we can lock the room up with us in it so no one will interfere with this one."
"This is great boys," Eddy was excited. "What are we waiting for? Let's get that photo taken!"
"Way ahead of you Eddy," Double D went with it.
"Time to make a friend of mine happy again," Andrew exclaimed.
"I'M AS HAPPY AS A BUG IN A RUG GUYS!" Ed shouted.
"That's nice to know Ed," Double D commented.
The Eds and Andrew then went into the secluded room after Eddy changed into his photo uniform again as they went for the room, as Kevin saw them in the shadows.
The Eds and Andrew then entered the room, closing the door behind them, as Andrew was unaware of the fact that a photo of him fell out of his back pocket and landed on the floor outside the room. They locked the door behind them to prevent others from entering.
"Okay, now there's only enough energy in this camera for one more photo," Double D proclaimed. "So let's make this count Eddy."
"I hope this doesn't backfired boys," Eddy was anxious.
"Not to worry Eddy, we are in a secluded room and the door is locked so no one will interfere," Andrew explained. "I promise this photo will be much better."
"I hope your right Andrew," Eddy gulped.
"Okay Eddy, ready for the camera," Double D asked.
Eddy took a deep breath before responding.
"Ready Double D," Eddy then smiled as good as he possible could.
"Alright, here I go,"
Double D then snapped the photo, with no interference this time and he successfully managed to take a much better looking photo than the previous one; no mess ups were taken.
"Eureka, Eddy the photo was a success!" Double D took the photo paper from the camera and then showed it to Eddy, which got him hyped.
"ALRIGHT BOYS!" Eddy cheered. "IT WORKED! I MANAGE TO GET A MUCH BETTER PHOTO THAN THE LAST ONE!"
"I AM HAPPY AS I CAN BE GUYS!" Ed was happy too.
"Man, you guys really pulled it off!" Eddy commented.
"It's the least we could do, for a friend," Andrew informed him.
Eddy once again wanted to thank him but couldn't bring himself to do it.
Meanwhile, Kevin, who was eavesdropping had saw the whole thing take place as Eddy got a much more successful photo taken and boy, he was pretty angered by this.
"That Andrew twerp helped the dork get a decent photo," Kevin sneered through gritted teeth. "Why when I get a hold of him, I'll…I'll…"
Kevin then stopped when he saw a piece of paper on the floor.
"What the hell is this," Kevin then picked it up and saw that it was a photo of Andrew, but it wasn't any ordinary photo; it was a humiliating and embarrassing photo of Andrew.
"Whoa, this is an embarrassing photo of that twerp," Kevin remarked as an awful idea then came to his mind. It was then he gained a sinister grin on his face as he had the perfect plan to humiliate Andrew in the most inhumane way possible.
"I think I have the perfect plan to humiliate Andrew and get back at him for helping Dorky," Kevin gloated. "This'll show him and I'll be able to humiliate him in Dorky's place."
Kevin then let out the most cruel and coldest laugh that he could ever let loose from his mouth as he then left to put the cruel plan into action…
Later on in the day, the school day was done as the Eds and Andrew were heading back to the cul-de-sac while Chaosky was bringing that paper shredder back to the house. The Eds and Andrew were talking to each other.
"Why today has been a rather interesting day," Double D commented.
"Yeah, it ended up going into Eddy's favor this time," Andrew complimented.
"You bet it did squirt," Eddy boasted. "And with this new and improve photo of myself, that key to my brother's room is as good as mine!"
"I hope it goes well for you Eddy," Andrew told him.
"Eh, it probably will," Eddy didn't seem worried.
"Guys, I want to play with the chickens," Ed blurted out.
"Later Ed, right now we had a long and busy day at school and we need to unwind back at our houses." Double D stated.
"Good idea Double D," Andrew smiled. "I can tell that tomorrow will be a great day for all of us."
In a matter of minutes, the guys made it back to the cul-de-sac.
"Well I do believe this is where we must part ways for now gentlemen," Double D commented.
"Yup," Andrew nodded. "Time to unwind and look forward to what a wonderful day tomorrow will be!"
"Yeah boys, I'm heading back to my house to show this new photo to my mom," Eddy stated. "Don't be surprised if I get the keys to my brother's room by tonight. I can smell that camel already."
"I won't be surprised Eddy," Andrew grinned. "Well have a good night guys."
"Goodnight to you too Andrew," Double D said.
"Yeah, see ya boys later," Eddy simply said.
"UNTIL TOMORROW MY FRIENDS!" Ed shouted.
It was then all of them went back to their respective houses to unwind for the day, with Eddy having some hopes that he'll get the keys for his brother's room. Kevin who poked out from nearby overheard the conversation that they were having and started gloating again.
"Oh it will be a good day tomorrow, for me that is," Kevin snorted. "By tomorrow, you will be the laughing stock of the whole school and you'll be extremely humiliated by the fact that I have the copies of this embarrassing photo of you twerp, and all the kids will be given one and join in on the tormenting, and that'll show you what happens when you help out Dorky!"
Kevin then started laughing sinisterly as he could imagine how humiliated Andrew will get come tomorrow from the sight of his humiliating photo having been copied and all of the kids will be in possession of one and will make him the laughing stock of the school. Kevin retreated to his house to put this into action, planning on informing the kids about this tomorrow before Andrew finds out.
As for Andrew, he spent the remainder of the night with Chaosky as he eventually turned in for the evening, unaware of the humiliation that he'll be facing come tomorrow…
END OF PART 1…

YEAH SIMPLY PUT, EDDY WON THIS TIME AND OUTMATCHED THE KIDS THANKS TO ANDREW AND THE OTHER TWO EDS! BY NEXT CHAPTER, EDDY WILL BE IN POSSESSION OF THE KEY TO HIS BROTHER'S ROOM! JUST DON'T BE SURPRISED!
NOW JUST BECAUSE EDDY ISN'T HUMILIATED ANYMORE DOESN'T MEAN THE STORY'S OVER! FOR ANDREW ENDS UP GETTING PUT INTO THE SPOTLIGHT AND GETS DEEPLY HUMILIATED AS A NERVE FROM THE PAST GETS STEPPED ON AND BRINGS BACK A BAD MEMORY! THIS'LL GIVE ANDREW SOME HIDDEN DEPTHS TOO!
ALSO, OVER THE WEEK I WAS ON VACATION, I HAVE LEARNED A LOT FROM SOME OF THE REVIEWS I HAVE GOTTEN! I GET THAT ANDREW IS AN ALL LOVING HERO AND THAT GIVING HIM FEATURES THAT HE SUCKS AT SOMETHING WON'T IMPROVE HIS CHARACTER AND IT'LL TAKE MORE THAN THAT TO RESTORE HIM! THAT'S ONE OF THE REASONS I'M DOING THIS STORY, ALONG WITH THE FACT THAT I HAD THE IDEA FOR THIS STORY ON MIND FOR QUITE A WHILE AND I'VE BEEN MEANING TO DO THIS!
ANOTHER THING I LEARNED (WHICH WAS SOMETHING I COMPLETELY OVERLOOKED) IS THAT FACT THAT ONE OF THE FLAWS ANDREW HAS THAT I HAVEN'T NOTICED UNTIL A REVIEWER POINTED IT OUT, IS THE FACT THAT ANDREW HAS BEEN KNOWN TO BE INNOCENTLY INSENSITIVE; AND HOW THIS IS PLAYED IS WHEN ANDREW VOLUNTARILY DRAGS THE EDS INTO GETTING MAKEOUT SESSIONS WITH THE KANKERS, COMPLETELY UNAWARE THAT THEY ARE UNCOMFORTABLE WITH IT AND ANDREW HAS NO IDEA THAT HE IS UNINTENTIONALLY HURTING HIS FRIENDS (THE EDS)! THANKFULLY, AFTER THE HIGH POINT IN THIS STORY WHERE ANDREW HAS A BAD MEMORY COME UP, AND WHERE CHAOSKY GIVES AN ANGRY RANT TO THE KIDS AND KANKERS, ALONG WITH OTHER STUFF, CHAOSKY WILL INFORM ANDREW THAT HE HAS UNINTENTIONALLY HURT THE EDS BY HAVING THEM GET SMOOCHED BY THE KANKERS, AND ANDREW THEN FEELS GUILTY FOR IT AND WANTS TO MAKE IT UP TO THE EDS FOR IT! I WOULD HAVE NEVER KNOWN THIS IF THAT ONE REVIEWER DIDN'T POINT THIS OUT TO ME, SO THANKS A BUNCH FOR THAT!
ANOTHER THING, I'LL ONLY HAVE A COUPLE OF THE CHARACTER SHOW DISLIKE TOWARDS ANDREW, THE ONES THAT I FEEL WOULD FIT THE POSITION PERFECTLY. MOST OF THE KIDS WILL FEEL REGRET FOR WHAT THEY DID TO ANDREW AFTER CHAOSKY CHEWS THEM OUT! JUST SO YOU KNOW SINCE I HAVE SO MUCH PLANNED FOR THIS STORY!
LASTLY, BY THE END OF THE NEXT CHAPTER, EDDY WILL SLOWLY START TO GO THROUGH CHARACTER DEVELOPMENT IN TERMS OF HIS 'FRIENDSHIP' WITH ANDREW AND FIGURES OUT THAT ANDREW REALLY DOES SEE HIM AS A FRIEND! A HEADSUP FOR YOU ALL IN CASE YOU DIDN'T KNOW ALREADY!
ANYWAY, NEXT CHAPTER, KEVIN AND THE KIDS, AND THE KANKERS END UP HUMILIATING ANDREW BY LAUGHING AT HIM IN THE CAFETERIA JUST LIKE WHAT HAPPENED TO EDDY PREVIOUSLY, USING ANDREW'S EMBARRASSING PHOTO AS FACE MASKS TO TORTURE ANDREW AND KEVIN STEPS ON A NERVE THAT TRIGGERS A BAD MEMORY ANDREW REMEMBERS, AND HE'LL THEN BREAKDOWN INTO DEPRESSION AND CHAOSKY FOLLOWS UP BY CALLING OUT EVERYONE (SANS THE EDS) FOR THEIR ACTIONS AND FOR WHAT THEY DID! HOW WILL THIS ALL TURN OUT? READ AND FIND OUT NEXT TIME EVERYONE!
NOW ONLY IF YOU WANT, YOU CAN EITHER LEAVE A REVIEW AND LET ME KNOW WHAT YOU THINK OF THIS STORY SO FAR, OR DON'T. IT'S ALL UP TO YOU READERS TO DECIDE!
