Hey! Thanks so much for the reviews! Yay, motivation. Here are my replies:

Pixiegirl100: XD Yeah. I like Jonny for some reason though, he seems fun. And Plank… well… he scares me. Just a bit. I mean, he was reading a book on Mind Control. That's creepy. Thanks for the review!

Amainihachi: XDD Yay! I had some fun with chapter 6. I had fun with this chapter, too… thanks for the review!

CrazyUFOgirl: XD Wow, really? That's cool! Me, too, apparently. I dunno, I like classics and … stuff from the 60's, 70's, 80's – you know, that kind of stuff. Thanks for the review!

I remember thinking about the next chapter… wondering how, you, the reader, have a conflict with Eddy there… or atleast worry about something and then…

… trying to not be his friend…

I cried.

Out of no where.

You probably don't get it, but, why was it that when I thought of, in the story, having the reader try to leave Eddy just because of something Kevin said… I started crying? I didn't feel sad or anything, it just started happening.

There was nothing in my eyes, I was not laughing at anything, but I cried… twice. I wasn't thinking of anything that sad…

I didn't feel depressed or remorseful.

I wonder why that happened.

Maybe it means something.

Maybe…

… whatever, on with the story.


This is what happened last:

After a few minutes, you all arrived at your stop. You glanced at Eddy and held out your hand. Eddy had an 'oh yeah' look on his face and then gave the earphone back to you.

But once you all got out of the bus and onto the sidewalk…

"Hey!"

The Eds looked behind you; mixed expressions on all of their faces. You raised an eyebrow and turned around. It was ... Jonny, and Plank.

"Hey there, new kid! I'm Jonny, and this is my pal, Plank!"

Here we go!:

"Um, hi, my name's (your name)." You said with a weak smile, waving a hand at Jonny and Plank.

Jonny stared at you for a while as his tongue stuck out. You raised an eyebrow, somewhat amused, but also confused. "Um…" Jonny lowered his head; his ear placed near Plank's drawn-on mouth.

"Plank wants to know if you like stuff like Arbor Day!" Eddy crossed his arms, bored. Why did Jonny have to come and start yapping away?

"… Um, yeah." You replied, smiling shyly. Then Jimmy and Sarah came over. "Hi! You're new, aren't you? Welcome to Peach Creek!" Jimmy greeted, grinning shyly. Sarah said, "Yeah, welcome!" and she smiled, being all cutesy.

You slightly laughed and said, "Thanks! I'm (your name)." Jimmy said, "I'm Jimmy, and this is Sarah." Sarah smiled, but then grimaced as she said, "And Ed is my idiot brother."

"Hi, baby sister!" Ed shouted, waving his arm in the air. Eddy sighed exasperatedly and said, "Yeah, yeah, that's great, now, beat it! We have a scam to do!" he pushed the others away.

"Don't touch me, fishface!" Sarah said, putting her fist near Eddy's face. Eddy frowned, but then tripped Sarah with his feet. "Hey!"

"Oh, my…" Edd said; curling his fingers and putting them on his chest like some fragile girl. Ed watched, a little scared and somewhat amused. "Uh…" he sputtered.

Eddy picked Sarah up, held her by the side and threw her into her front yard. "Scram!" Jimmy gasped and screamed, "Sarah!" as he ran to Sarah and Ed's house.

"… That can't be good," Edd said. "Alrighty, let's get on with the scam," Eddy smirked. "… Okay," you said, shrugging. Edd raised an eyebrow. "Scam? Eddy, what are you planning on doing?" He asked, frowning.

"Selling art, that's what!" Eddy replied. "Art?" Edd looked perplexed. "Yeah! Double-Dee, we need to go to your garage." Edd gave a puzzled look, but then realized his intentions. "Ah! Yes, let's go, shall we?"

You all followed Edd over to his house. "Please wait here," Edd said, opening his door and stepping inside. He closed his door. You looked nervous; unsure if you really wanted to be the main part of Eddy's 'scam'.

You liked attention, but not too much attention. "This is gonna be great," Eddy said, rubbing his hands together. "Yeah…" you said weakly. Ed randomly said "BUTTERED TOAST!"

Eddy ignored him as he was focused on you. "Somethin' wrong?" he asked, looking a little confused. "… No, nothing, I'm just… unsure about this," you half-confessed, glancing down at him and then at your feet.

"Huh? Why?" Eddy asked, sounding a bit concerned. Then you all heard the garage door open. And, well, it did open. Eddy glanced over his shoulder, but then back at you. "No reason, let's just get on with it!" you said, putting your hands on Eddy's shoulders, turning him around and directing him inside the garage. Ed followed.

Eddy didn't protest against your actions, but he gave you a look that read "Are you sure?" To answer this, you gave a slight nod. "Cool stand!" Ed said.

Eddy, trying to get back into his scam mood, remarked, "You've seen it before, lumpy," as he walked over to the stand. "It's perfect, of course, but we need a new sign," Eddy said, putting his finger to his chin. "This one's been used up too much."

"Where will we find the lumber?" Edd asked. "Um…" Eddy murmured, thinking. You thought for a moment and then said, "Well, maybe you could take a board of wood from your club –" but then you shut your mouth. … They're gonna ask how I know about the clubhouse, aren't they? Oh crud.

"… Club what?" Eddy asked. You sighed, and said, "Club house…" "How do you know about its existence?" Edd asked, surprised. Oh, you guys have a television show, so I know. I've seen every episode so far. You thought, but you weren't going to say that.

(A/N: Let's just say that the clubhouse was magically restored. 8D;;; )

"Uh-um…" you sputtered, not sure what to do anymore. "Club Ed! Yay! Let's go!" Ed shouted. You stared at him and then weakly smiled hoping that would get the attention off of you. "I don't know how you know about it, (your name), but that's a good idea! We can just take one measly board of wood from our club house and use that as our sign!"

"Yeah," you said, with a grin. "Let's go, guys!" Eddy said, running out of the garage towards the club house. Ed ran after, and so did you. Edd stared at you suspiciously, but he then joined you all in the run.

After running down a couple of sidewalks, you made it to the club house…Which wasn't really Club Ed anymore, it was still Club Kanker. "… You think they're in there?" Eddy asked after you all stared at it in silence.

"… Hopefully not," Edd replied. Ed gulped, and looked around. "Who's 'they'?" You said, pretending not to know. "The Kanker sisters." That was all Eddy said, not really wanting to explain why they didn't want them around. He glanced at Edd.

"They're icky, yucky, mushy girls…" Ed said, pouting. "Yes… um, well, they're amorous females chasing after us." Edd said nervously. "… Oh. Wow." You said, letting out a nervous chuckle. But of course you knew this already. You just thought of yourself as a pretty good actor.

"Well, I don't think they're here… otherwise they would have come out, right? …" you trailed off. "They might be hiding…" Ed suggested. "Was jjuusstt about to say that," you remarked, looking a little paranoid, hoping the Kankers really weren't there. Or, apparently, you'd all be in big trouble.

"… I'll go see," Eddy finally said. "You?" Edd asked, a little surprised. "That's… somewhat out of character." "So? I don't see you tryin' to go up there…" Eddy said. You had a feeling he just wanted to impress you, Edd, and Ed.

Eddy walked closer to the tree and looked up. He put his hand on the wood ladder thing, and then started climbing up somewhat slowly. Once he got all the way up there, he opened the door thing hesitantly. Eddy crawled in.

You winced, hoping nothing bad would happen.

With Eddy

Huh, nobody's here, Eddy thought, glancing around the room. It was pink and had… well, girly things. There were hearts, pink cushions, frilly things – where'd they get this stuff, anyway?

He checked under the furniture, in the cups, in the messed up boards, and under a rug. No Kankers.

Perfect.

Eddy opened the door thing and stuck his head out.

with all of you

You heard the door open and looked up at it. Eddy was there, and he said, "Hey, guys! The coast is clear!" You all smiled. "Come up here, will ya?" Eddy said.

So, you all climbed up the wood ladder thing. You did so a bit fearfully – you were afraid of heights. Once you were up there, you had slight difficulty pushing yourself in and up. You felt like you'd fall if you did anything…

Eddy noticed this, and gave you a hand. You smiled and grabbed his hand and he helped pull you up. "Thank you," you said, now standing. Eddy turned away and said, "No prob," and blushed a little bit. Edd couldn't help but smile at this.

"So… do we just rip out a board or… what?" You asked. "Well, I suppose we could do that, but –" Edd got cut in by Eddy. "Yeah, let's do that! Easier and quicker!" Edd rolled his eyes. "Fine… however, let's remove one in good shape."

"Alright, alright, sockhead… keep your hat on," Eddy said, observing a board of wood in the floor. "Okay, Ed," Eddy said, snapping his fingers. "Take this one out!"

Ed saluted him, and then put his hands on the board of the wood. He slipped his fingers in-between the small spaces that separated the boards and attempted to pull it out. He pulled it harder and harder – the carelessly placed nails were popping out and Eddy said, "Thata boy, Ed!" to encourage him.

The board was finally removed. "All done, Eddy!" Ed grinned. Eddy smiled and said, "Good work, Ed," while taking the board from him. "This is perfect!" Eddy said. "Okay, let's go back to your place!"

You all agreed.


That's all for now. :3 please r&r.
