Chapter 2: wake me up when school ends
September:
Eddy stepped out of his white limousine and onto the red carpet where he is greeted by his adoring fans. There were tons of people cheering for him and trying to get photos or autographs and just in case is anything gets out of hand the security guards kept the place in order.
"Be sure to get my good side mac" said Eddy to a photographer
All of the photographers started taking photos of Eddy like crazy
"That's right keep em' coming!" he yelled
Then all the fans went ape shit for Eddy, cheering his name
"EDDY MCGEE! EDDY MCGEE!"
"Mr. McGee, wake up!" Eddy woke up from his dream and there was his science teacher who was a balding middle aged man and he was not very happy with him
"Do you need to see the school principal for your constant sleeping in class?" he yelled
"No sir" Eddy said back
"Good now pay attention to the lesson" the teacher said as he marched back to his desk
"Dickhead" Eddy murmured under his breath as the teacher resumed the lesson
It was only second period and Eddy already wanted to leave the school, he would escape but he knows what happened the last time he did that so he stayed. Eddy looked around the classroom and saw Ed sitting next to him drawing something but he couldn't see what it was. Two rows in front of him were Nazz talking to another girl and he listened in
"So how was he big or small?" the girl asked Nazz
"I've had bigger, but Henry's was alright" she responded
"I hope he gave you some of his Irish tea" the girl joked
"I would prefer if he gave me his special shamrock shake" Nazz joked back and the two snickered
Eddy didn't like what he was hearing one little bit, it pissed him off that not only was Nazz going out with someone she was also having sex with him and it made Eddy real jealous and he was going to do something about it.
In math class across the school was Kevin, Rolf, Marie, and May. Kevin was taking lots of notes in class so he could get good grades and get into a good college, Rolf was doing the same so he could join him. Marie was in the back of the classroom isolated from the other students and she was actually paying attention and learning.
Kevin noticed her and was concerned, why was she paying attention in class? She used to never care and now she does and Kevin wondered about this.
"Hey Rolf" Kevin whispered to Rolf who was about a seat behind him
"Yes Kevin?" He whispered back
"Do you noticed anything different about Marie?" he asked
Rolf looked back and saw Marie "No she's just sitting there studying Kevin, why do you ask?"
"Never mind I was just wondering about her, her attitude has sure changed"
In the front of the class was May who normally did her best in school but was thinking too much of Ed, she still had a small crush on him.
"Sigh", Ed" she thought
RING!
The lunch bell rang and the students crammed into the lunch room. Ed, Edd, and Eddy went to a table by themselves and began talking
"I found out about the guy Nazz is dating his name is Henry O something" Eddy said "Anyways after school I'm gonna teach that son of a Irish who's boss, are you guys with me?"
"Sorry Eddy I can't I have to leave school early today" said Edd
"What makes you so special?" Eddy asked
"I have an appointment later and I cannot miss it"
"Whatever who needs ya. How about you Ed can you help me with this guy later?" He asked Ed
Ed shook his head "Nope I have to walk Sarah home after school and I have a lot of homework to do" Ed said to Eddy
"What the hell, Double D what did you do to Ed?"
"He asked me to help him Eddy, Ed wanted to do better in school" Edd replied
Then Johnny came walking up to them "Hey guys" he said cheerfully
"Fuck off Johnny, we have no time for melon heads like you" Eddy told him
"Hold on a second, me and Plank heard what you were talking about and we would like to help you with Nazz's boyfriend" he said
"Why should I trust you?" Eddy asked
"Because me and Plank know where he lives, we have a grudge against him too" he told him
"Really? Well Johnny my boy I guess you ain't so useless after all step into my office and we can discuss this" Eddy led Johnny out of the cafeteria and into his office (wherever that is)
Just then the intercom came on:
Would Eddward Ashford please come to the office, your mother is here to pick you up. Repeat Eddward Ashford come to the main office
"Well I have to leave now, see you in the morning Ed" Double D said as he left
"Bye Double D" Ed said back and he got out his drawing and started to finish it.
Edd was in the back of his mom Carla's car riding to his therapist, it was a silent ride the only thing that could be heard was the sound of the engine. All Edd could think about was his father, he missed him dearly.
"So how was your day Eddward? Did anything new happened, did you talk to anyone"? His mother asked but Edd completely zoned out
"Eddward?" Carla said a bit louder
"Huh?" Eddsaid finally hearing his mother
"I said did anything happen today?" Mother replied
"No, nothing to report Mother" Edd said as he zoned out again
"Well that's nice" His mother said again and soon they arrived at the Therapist clinic.
Edd checked in and was led to a familiar room in the back where his therapist was waiting for him
"Hello Eddward" said the female therapist who was in her mid-30's wearing a purple women's suit with glasses
"Hi Dr. Treize" Edd replied as he sat on the therapy chair
"So how are you today Eddward?" she asked
"I'm fine, just fine"
"Have you been taking your medication lately?"
"Yes since June"
"Any thoughts of suicide or any anxiety?"
"A little" Edd replied back
"How about any thoughts of your father, have you been thinking about him?" she asked
"N-no" Edd replied nervously he hated talking about his father
"You can tell me I'm only here to help"
"There really is nothing I want to talk about that is about him" Edd said
"I see" Dr. Treize said and made a note on her clip board
Gym class was the last class of the day and everyone was running laps around that track, Eddy and Johnny were running slower than everyone else because they were planning on what they were going to do after school about Henry
"So this guy Henry O'Donnell lives in a house in the new urban area?" said Eddy running
"Yup I saw him and Nazz walk into a house one day" Johnny replied
"Great, after school you show me the way to this guy's house and then we nail him. He he!" Eddy said feeling good about himself
Ahead were Kevin and Rolf, they were talking to each other too
"Rolf hears that you won't be joining the football team this year Kevin" Rolf said
"Yeah I got that job remember? I can't juggle sports with work and school" Kevin said back and kept on running. Kevin started to think about Marie again "Hey Rolf I really thought there was something wrong with Marie today"
Rolf looked at Kevin for a second and just laughed
"What's so funny?"
"Ha! Ha! You like that catty Marie girl don't you" Rolf said
"What the hell are you talking about man? I don't love her, I was just concerned that's all!" Kevin yelled
"Rolf is just kidding Kevin"
"Jesus" Kevin said, and they went back to running
In the bathroom May and Marie were smoking by the sinks
"So May have you decided to ask out your dimwit love yet?" Marie asked insultingly
"Shut up Marie he's not a dimwit he's a great man! And besides he's better than some nerdy weakling you have a crush on" May snapped back
"Shut the fuck up May, I stopped caring about him a long time ago and I can get better!" she yelled as Nazz came out of the stalls to wash her hands
"Bitching again you losers why don't you get a life?"
"Shut your mouth Blondie before I decide to rip it off!" said Marie
"And if you do I'll report you and you'll be expelled" she said back
"Fuck you, do you think I care if I get expelled? You can't do jack"
"Ha! You think I can't? I'll have you and your fugly sister out of this school in a heartbeat" Nazz threatened
"WHAT THE FUCK DID YOU CALL ME YOU CUNT?" May yelled as she grabbed Nazz's shirt about to punch her in the face
"Hold on May I'll handle this the old fashioned way" Marie said taking out her phone "Listen blondie we both know that you slept with most of the guys in the school and a couple of the teachers to bump some of your grades up. I have the principal on speed dial, if you insult me or May again your whole reputation will be destroyed. Do I make myself clear?" Marie said and Nazz just nodded and stomped out of the bathroom
"Bitch!" May yelled "Thanks for that Marie"
"Anytime sis"
"And sorry for yelling at you" May apologized
"Forget it may, we're sisters remember?"
"Yeah that's right" May agreed "Anyway what's going on with Lee these days since she doesn't go to school anymore?" she asked
"She got a job, I don't really know what it is but I heard she was getting payed good"
"Yeah she was the one with the most guts, even I wouldn't rob a kid in public" May put in
"And whatever this job is, she must like it a lot"
"Jesus, can you get off any sooner?" said Lee giving some guy a hand job
"Augh! Augh!" moaned the guy as he relieved himself in Lee's hands
"See that wasn't so hard was it? Now that'll be twenty bucks" Lee said
"Twenty? Whatever it was worth it anyways" The guy payed her and Lee got dressed in her clothes again; she went to the bathroom to wash her hands
"Easy money, dirty job" she said with a smirk and looked at her watch "School's almost out time to leave and pick up Marie and May" and then Lee left the guy's apartment
Edd was back in his mother's car and rided back home, the ride was silent again
"So would you like to do something Eddward? I have the rest of the day off" Edd wasn't listening again he was thinking about his father again
"Eddward?" his mother said
"Yes?" Edd finally replied
"Is something wrong? You are awfully quiet back there"
"No mother, I'm just fine really" Edd said boldly
She sighed "Eddward I'm just trying to help you"
"I know I'm sorry mother I didn't mean to talk back to you" he apologized
There was silence in the car for another few minutes and Edd's mother finally spoke
"It was about your father wasn't it?" she asked
Edd looked up "Yes" he said softly
"I know I miss him too son" She said
"I wish he were still alive" he said sadly as a small tear formed in his eye
"Look Edward, it will be okay" she said comforting her son "Come on I'll take you to the mall so we can shop and later we can go have dinner" Carla hoped this would make her son feel better
"Fine Mother, I don't care" Edd said feeling a bit better
"Good, that's my Eddward" And then they drove to the mall
Later Johnny was leading Eddy to the new urban area built in Peach creek; there where houses, apartments, restaurants, clubs, and a large mall. It was already getting dark outside
"Come on Johnny how much farther? There's a show on TV coming on later and I don't wanna miss it" Eddy asked impatiently
"Not too far" Johnny said and they walked further down the urban area and came to an alleyway "Here's a short cut, after this alley is Henry's house" said Johnny
Eddy started walking through the alley "Good, this is gonna be too e—"just then Johnny used plank to whack Eddy on his head knocking him out cold
"Nice shot buddy!" Johnny said to plank and then he dragged Eddy's body away
Meanwhile Kevin was in his room practicing his guitar, had had gotten better over the last few weeks but still had a lot to learn. Also he had grown ok with the Kanker sisters living in his apartment; it wasn't as bad as he thought it would be. Then there was a knock at his door
"Come in I guess" said Kevin
The door opened and May came in wearing a new blouse "Hi Kevin" she said kindly
"Hey May" said Kevin looking at May "What's that you got on?"
"It's my new blouse I'm wearing it to impress Ed and I need someone's opinion on how it looks. Do you like it?" she asked
Kevin looked at her and was pretty amazed it actually looked good on her "It looks good May you have good taste" he said kindly
"Really? Thank you!" she said and went up to hug him. At first Kevin wasn't thrilled at the Kankers living with him but he actually started growing a bond with them
"You're welcome. Now can I get back to practicing please?"
"Sure" May said and skipped out of the room, closing the door behind her
"I wonder what she sees in Ed" He thought for a minute. He shrugged and went back to practicing
Sarah entered her room and turned on her computer, she wanted to talk to Jimmy badly; but when she got onto Facebook she saw that Jimmy had un-friended her, she tried to look at his profile but couldn't because he had the privacy up
Sarah then decided to call him instead but when she dialed his number on her cell phone it said that the number she was trying to reach was disconnected. Then Sarah ran out of options
"Why the hell is he being like this?" She thought and it made her angry, she needed to hit something bad. She clenched her fist and punched her hand, and then she went down to Ed's room with her anger following her
She got into Ed's room where he was working on his Math homework
"Hiya baby sister" Ed said as Sarah entered the room "What's the matter" he said seeing her all mad
"I-I need to relieve some stress Ed!" she said then tackled Ed onto the floor and started hitting him in the face, Ed was so confused
"Spare me Sarah, I have done nothing wrong!" Ed screamed but Sarah wasn't listening, she kept hitting him in the face
A few hours later Eddy started to wake up "Uugghh… where the fuck am I? He thought
"Hey he's waking up!" said a voice in an Italian American accent
Eddy opened his eyes and saw two tall boys, one was fat and the other was skinny and had a shaved head he had seen at school and they were both wearing tan trench coats
"Hey little man are you hurt, do ya need yer mommy?" The fat one said insulting Eddy
"Yeah little baby got a fuckin' owie?" The one with the shaved head said which made the two laugh
Eddy was about to say something then Henry came with Nazz wearing his own trench coat
"So is this the one that wants to tangle with ol' Henry?" He said in his thick Irish accent
"Yeah, his name is Eddy mother fuckin' McGee" Johnny said behind Henry "So, am I in now?"
"Yes you are now a full member of the Trench Coat Brawlers Jonathan! Dim, go and take Johnny to get his new outfit" He said to the one with the shaved head
"C'mon Johnny, I got a coat with your name written on it" dim said
"Sweet!" johnny said as they walked away
"Such a promising young man, him and that board. Now where were we?" Henry said walking up to Eddy, grabbing his sweatshirt lifting him up "So what beyer poison, what do ye have against ol' Henry?"
Eddy said nothing he quickly looked at Nazz and then back, Henry noticed this and punched Eddy in the face
"Oh so that's it? Ye were jealous of me and m'lady weren't ya?" he yelled at Eddy and kept hitting him "C'mon boy say something?" Henry kept hitting him in the face "Speak ya little piggy, speak!"
Finally Eddy said "Fuck you ya fucking douche!" which caused Henry to hit him again
Nazz spoke up "Hey! Don't be so rough with him; he wants to do me like most guys want to"
"Shut up you, this is between me and im'!" He yelled back at Nazz which gave Eddy time to focus his strength, he punched the side of Henry's temple as hard as he could"Ow! You little bastard! Georgie give me yer bat!" he told that fat one
"Henry don't it's not worth it!" Nazz yelled back
"I said shut up!" Henry yelled at her again "Say goodnight boy!" Henry readied the bat and was about to hit Eddy who was closing his eyes as tight as he could until suddenly,
"I THOUGHT I TOLD YOU KIDS TO STAY AWAY FROM MY HOUSE!" said an angry voice coming from a trailer, it was a tall African American with an afro in an army jacket, jeans, and combat boots and he wasn't real happy
"What have told ya kids? Get the fuck off my property!" the man yelled again
Then Henry spoke up "Beat it darkie this is none of your—"
"And you!" the man pointed at Henry "It's you it was always you and I'm tired of your bullshit!"
"Well what are ya gonna do about it?" Henry spoke again "Your outnumbered by two pal! So go back into your rolling shack of a home" and the man angrily stepped back into his house "Good, now no more distractions say goodnight again lad!" Henry readied his bat again and was about to strike when they heard a gunshot
All four looked in the direction of the black man who had a pistol "That was a warnin' the next shot is aim'd at you!" said the black man pointing the gun a Henry
Henry dropped Eddy and raised his arms "Whoa Whoa sir! Let's not be too hasty, we can settle this like gentleman can we?"
"BEAT IT! Ya got ten seconds" said the black man counting down from ten
Henry grabbed Nazz's arm and ran away in the other direction with Georgie
Then Eddy got up and rubbed his head
"You too kid, get the fuck outta here!" he said to Eddy
"What the fuck? I almost got beaten to death by those guys!" Eddy yelled back
"I don't give a shit, just get the fuck outta here or I'll kill you too!"
"Fine I don't fucking care, do it tough guy!" Eddy yelled as he stood up straight with his eyes closed getting ready to be shot
The man pointed the gun at Eddy's chest and then he lowered it
"Kid, either your stupid or got a death wish. Who are you anyways?" he asked
Eddy pointed his thumb at himself "My name is Eddy Mcgee, remember it! One day I'll be famous" Eddy yelled
The black man just laughed at this "Yeah and I'm a fuckin' war hero" he continued laughing until he thought of his name "Wait did you say McGee?" he asked
"Yeah" Eddy said
And then then the familiar last name came clear to the man "Yeah! Yeah! I remember an older McGee, he looked like you but taller"
"Wait are you talking about my bro?" Eddy asked
"Yeah isn't his name Terry?"
"Yeah that's it, that's my bro!"
"Yer bro is a fuckin' asshole" the man said
"I know right?" Eddy said and they both laughed hard for a minute
Then they stopped laughing and then Eddy spoke "So what's your name" he asked the man
"Nil, Nil Smith" the man said
"Nil? What the fuck kinda name is that?" Eddy asked
"It means zero, I picked it out myself" Nil explained
"Oh" Eddy said
"So what's yer problem kid, why were you hangin' around a bunch of punk ass kids like them?" he was referring to Henry, Nazz, and Georgie
"I was gonna kick that Henry guy's ass" said Eddy
"Well ya didn't have much luck from what I saw"
"That's because I got nothing from my so-called help"
Then Nil thought for a second "Ya know what kid? I don't do this often but how about I teach ya some hardcore military fighting skills, that'll help you against those punks"
"Really you would do that?"
"Yup" Nil answered
"But how do you know how to do that stuff?"
Then Nil took a medal out of his jacket pocket and threw it at Eddy "Check this out"
Eddy caught the medal and read it
For His Service, Corporal Nil Smith of the USMC 51st shooting squad
"Whoa! You were in the Marines?" Eddy said amazed
"Yup, for 4 years"
"That's so cool! And you want to teach me this stuff?" he asked
"Yeah but not tonight, how about Saturdays? That's when I don't got work" Nil said
"That would be awesome" Eddy exclaimed
"Great, now you better head on home kid I got someone coming over in a few
"Whatever, later Nil" Eddy said goodbye and headed home
In the opposite direction Eddy was going Lee was walking to Nil's house with her red hair down and in her street clothes which were sexy blue jeans, cowgirl boots, and a women's leather jacket
Lee went up to Nil's trailer and knocked on the door and he answered it with a smile
"Well hello luscious Lee" complemented Nil
"Hey" Lee said back "Remember it's fifty bucks for three hours" she said and Nil handed her a fifty dollar bill. Lee unzipped her jacket showing off her white bra and breasts and Nil let her in
Later in the mall Dim and Johnny were sitting in some comfy chairs and Dim gave Johnny his trench coat and he got plank one from the build-a bear store
"So how do you like the coats?" Dim asked
"Their awesome and plank says they're sweet too!" Johnny said excited that he is now in the gang
"Good, you two look sharp now" Dim said and then Henry came walking up to them with Nazz and Georgie who hid the bat in his coat
"Hey Henry! How did it go with Eddy?" Johnny asked
"Shut yer damn mouth. I almost had the little bugger and then some darkie with a banger started shooting about the place!" Henry said
Johnny looked confused to what he just told him
"He said some black guy shot at us" Georgie translated
"Well you were going to kill him Henry" Nazz said
Henry sighed "I know, I lose it when I get angry"
Nazz put her hands on his shoulders "That's why you need to relax more"
"Okay M'lady" Henry said and they all sat in the other comfy chairs with Nazz sitting on Henry's lap; then they talked about what they were all going to be doing this coming week
