Chapter 9
Carlos's POV
"Better hurry..." I said to Kevin as I turned and walked away. "Class is about to start."
I made my way to English class and there I saw Edd reading his Shakespeare book, but he seemed to have something else on his mind. I walk over to him and patted my hand on his shoulder to get his attention. He turned and looked at me.
"Buenos Dias, Double D." I said. "Oh...Hola, Carlos. How are you this morning?" He greeted. "I'm good, I was about to ask you the same thing." I asked as I went over to my seat. "So what happened to you Friday?" I asked. "What do you mean?" He questioned. "I mean, when I tried calling you, you kept hanging up on me." "Oh...well..."
Edd closed his book and sat in on top of his desk. A small blush came to his face.
"That was Kevin's voice I heard that night, wasn't it?" I assumed. "Ye...yes. He only came over to apologize for what happened at the restaurant, nothing more."
I knew that was a lie, but I simply just nodded my head and changed the subject
"Hey Edd?" He looked at me. "You know, everyone's been talking about this Halloween Dance going on next week..." I gently grabbed his hand and he blushed with wide eyes. "...If you'll like to be my date?" I asked. "Um...I don't know Carlos, I'm not much of a dancer."
I couldn't help but chuckle at the fact that he couldn't dance. I looked over to the door and noticed that Kevin walked in the door. I glared at him, he glared at me, then Edd turned and looked. When he met eyes worth Kevin, both of their faces redden. He walked over to his seat behind me and the blushed face soon disappeared as he glared at me again. I turned my attention back over to Edd as Kevin sat down.
"Well, you probably just never tried." I said as I winked at him which made him smile.
The sound of the bell silence the class and turned their attention to the Mrs. began teaching. I glanced over my shoulder to see Kevin's confused but pissed expression on his face, I smirked turned back to my seat. When class ended I gathered my things and made my way to the door, I waved Edd bye and he waved back at me.
'The battle has only begun.'
