Hey everyone! So this is short, but I hope you like this chapter. I've been busy late and I'm sorry for neglecting this story and you guys! I also had horrible writers block. Anyway, you guys are awesome! I hope you enjoy this.
There Kevin was, in front of him. Edd smiled as they swayed to the music. It was just them and no one else in the room. Suddenly, Edd tripped and fell over Kevin's feet. The room filled with laughter and Edd looked around to see everyone staring at him and laughing. He shifted his gaze to Kevin and he was also laughing. Edd closed his eyes so he wouldn't look at everyone snickering at him. Suddenly he opened his eyes to his room. Edd shifted his gaze to the time. It was 4:00am, on a Saturday. He rolled over and sighed. Without Kevin there, it was more difficult to sleep. He rubbed his eyes and thought about how tonight will end up. A few minutes later he drifted off to sleep.
Edd stretched out and rolled out of bed about 1:00pm. He shook his head at how late he slept and how little he actually did sleep. He woke up a few times after his dream too. Homecoming was at 6 and Kevin would be picking him up a couple hours earlier. Edd made his way downstairs as he sighed. He walked into the kitchen and found a corsage with a note at the top.
"Here's your corsage for your date tonight. Your outfit is upstairs in your room. Have fun and be safe! Love you –Mom." Edd stared at the note for a minute. He shook his head as he went up to the sink and grabbed bread. He turned and put it in the toaster. 'The one day I really expected them to be here.' He sat down at the table. He looked down as a tear dripped down his face. A couple more fell down his face. He sniffled and looked up as the toast popped up. He wiped his face and got up to go get his toast. He walked to the fridge to grab the butter. 'Don't worry about it Edd. You have a big night tonight.' Although Edd was used to his parents not being home, he did miss them. He grabbed the butter from the fridge and then walked to his silverware drawer. He pulled out a butter knife and walked back where the toast lay. He opened the tub of butter and scooped some up on the knife. He put it on his toast. He moved and grabbed a plate when he realized how unsanitary it was to have the toast on the counter alone. He grabbed the plate and walked to his table. He gently bit into his toast as he spaced out. He bit and swallowed bit by bit until it was gone. He grabbed the plate and put it in the sink. He walked into the bathroom where he turned on the shower then slowly undressed and took his hat off. He stepped into the warm shower and day dreamed about tonight. He thought about him and Kevin dancing, with him in Kevin's arms. He tilted his head slightly. 'I wonder what Kevin wants to do after homecoming.' He smiled a little as he thought about Kevin all dressed up.
After getting all washed up, Edd stepped out of his shower and walked to grab his bathrobe as he put it on. He felt much better after washing away everything unhygienic on his body. He grabbed his bathrobe and put it on. He used the towel to dry his hair. He grabbed his tooth brush and his tooth paste once his hair was semi dry. He brushed his teeth and he stood in front of the mirror. He ran water under the brush and put it away along with the tooth brush. He smiled as he walked out of the bathroom and into his room. He glanced at his clock and tensed up. He hadn't realized it was 2:30pm already. 'Oh dear. Kevin will be here soon.' Then his phone vibrated on his desk. He walked up to it and saw a text from Kevin.
"Excited 4 tonite. Cnt wait to see u. Missed u last night.' Edd smiled and put his phone down. He walked to his closet and grabbed his outfit from the hanger. He took his bathrobe off and put on a white buttoned down long sleeved shirt. He buttoned up the shirt. He walked over to his dresser drawer and pulled out a pair of briefs. He then slipped them on. He walked back over and grabbed the pair of black dress pants. He slipped those on and tucked the white shirt in. He grabbed the black vest and put it on over the white shirt. He buttoned the vest up and put the tie on. He walked into the bathroom and looked into the mirror then smiled. He grabbed the cologne on the sink and sprayed some on his neck. He walked back into his room and glanced at the time. It was 2:50pm. Then there was a knock at the door and his stomach filled with butterflies. He turned off the light in the bathroom and walked quickly downstairs. He went into the kitchen and grabbed the corsage. He quickly walked to the door and opened it. He smiled big showing his gap in his teeth.
"Kevin!" Kevin smiled and tilted his head.
"Hey dork."
