Plans for the Beach
He couldn't make himself eat, his eyes rested on the chocolate sprinkles on the doughnut Kevin chose for him. "You know... You didn't have to stand up to my father, it's not like it's the first time he said those kind of things." He looked over towards the red head and noticed he wasn't eating either. "I appreciate it however, I've never seen my father leave so speechless. I wish my mother would have came, she would love to meet you." Picking up his hazelnut flavored coffee, he brought it to his lips. "So... when you said you never kissed a girl before..." He took a sip of the cooled down beverage.
Kevin shrugged, "I've kissed men, never a woman. Or a dog." He added with a small smile. He picked up his cream filled doughnut and bit into it. "I'm sorry I got so angry. It's just... I've always lived with people who were accepting of my sexuality. To see someone who absolutely hated it, it disgusted me. Even grannie disliked it at first but never to that extent..." He shook his head, "No one deserves that kind of treatment. Especially you." He looked over at the ravenette, "About last night..."
Edd rose his brows, his cheeks found themselves coloring. "Last night..." He murmured behind the coffee cup. Pulling away, he glanced over, "For a one night stand, it was actually quite good." Giving a shrug, he looked back down at his doughnut. "Thanks for breakfast by the way."
Kevin leaned back in his chair, "I don't think one night stands come back with coffee and sweets." He looked over at him, "I hope you don't only see it as a one night stand. I don't think I'd have sex with someone I don't care about Dork." He pointed out and sighed. "But I understand if you don't want apart of anything, I mean, you recently haven gotten divorced and such so maybe your mind is full of other things."
The black haired male finally looked back at him, "I don't want to be in a relationship with you, not now at least. I want to go on a date, I want to get to know you much more before I even think about that. Sure, we had sex and yes it was amazing but that doesn't give us the right reason to assume that we will work out. For all I know, we could be completely opposite of each other."
Kevin grinned as he leaned forward, "You know the saying. Opposites attract, right?" He swallowed down the rest of his food. "A date? How about tonight? I'll go pick Grannie up from the hospital and after that, we can go do something. We can just go on a ride on my bike or have a picnic." He threw the suggestions out with a wider grin. "Whatever you want to do, I'll do it too." He explained.
Eddward finally took a bite of the doughnut, it was very sweet. "I want to go to a beach." He knew where they were, a beach wasn't near, it would be atleast an hour drive. "I want to walk along the shore, like in those romantic novels." He smiled, "You think that's possible?" He asked. To be honest, he wanted to do things that Nathan would never do. He wanted everything opposite of Nathan, he wanted to feel loved.
The red head nodded, "Everything is possible, some things just take more work than others." He explained before wiping his mouth off. "The beach though? Aren't you afraid of getting a sun burn or something?" He asked with amusement in his voice. He was sure the pale, black haired male would roast under the heat. Looking at his watch, he nodded. "I'm sure we could get there before sunset, that would be nice to watch." He stood up and finished his coffee, "Be ready in an hour, I'll get you after Grannie is nice and comfortable in her bed."
Double D watched as Kevin threw on his coat and slipped out of the door. Swallowing down the rest of his coffee, he sat there in pure silence. That is, until his phone rang. Answering it, he smiled. "Hello Mother, how are you today?" His smile fell quickly after her first question. "Yes he came by... Yes he got punched..." He drummed his fingers on the table, "I'm sure he is angry but he is your ex-husband. You don't have to go out of the states with him you know. He's too grumpy to enjoy something with." His fingers paused, "I miss you too Mother... Hopefully you can make it next time. Maybe you can meet my cute neighbor." Giggling, he bid her a farewell. Hanging up his phone, he stretched his arms. He was going to go on a date, how long had it been since the last time he went to the beach? Standing up, he headed towards the bathroom to get ready.
His skin now red from scrubbing, the only sound he could hear was the blow dryer. Smiling as the hot air blew against his face, he stared at his reflection. How much longer would all these marks be on his skin? Would there be new ones? His cheeks heated up at the thought. Turning the device off, he set it down before heading over to his pile of clothes. He just chose a more loose t-shirt and kakis to wear. If he got cold, he'd bring a jacket. Exiting the bathroom, he made sure he looked good before heading out of the front door. Wind blew past him, his black curls blew out of his face as he headed towards Kevin's house. He pulled his hat down more on his head, he didn't want the mess on his head to be seen by many. Walking up the steps, he noticed a swing. Walking over, he smiled. He didn't remember this last time he visited, it looked old but that was what gave it character. Giving it a small push, he was surprised how silent it was as it swung back in forth.
"I bet you're expecting it to creak aren't you?" A voice began, causing Edd to jump. "I've worked on this thing for days and it finally sounds like a normal swing." Kevin stated proudly. He held a helmet in his hands, "I'm sure you're all about protection and safety so I'll let you wear my helmet." Walking over, he lightly took the other's hand. "Follow me." He pulled him down the stairs and towards Kevin's treasured motorcycle. "She's a real beauty, still runs like she's brand new."
Edd wanted to giggle at him for saying the bike had a gender but forgot about it as the helmet was pushed on his head. "Well, seeing that you've had this bike for years, I hope you are a safe driver." Watching Kevin get on, he gently put his hand on his shoulder. "Give me just one moment." Lifting his leg, he grunted as he managed to get it over the seat. Getting comfortable, he wrapped his arms around Kevin. "I am ready now." Nodding to himself, he waited.
Kevin glanced at him for a lingering moment before chuckling. "Of course Dork, anything you say." Starting the bike up, he grinned. "Hold on."
