Kevin bolted out the door as soon as his last class was over. He wouldn't let his teacher force him into paper fetching today so he escaped as fast as he could before she could ask. He knew she would scold him later but he didn't care today.
He walked with Nazz to Edd's locker. Thinking about it, Edd was the only one he knew who even bothered to use his locker, Kevin couldn't remember the last time he'd opened his own. He probably wouldn't keep forgetting his books if he did. Though that hadn't been an issue since staying over with Edd.
"Hey pretty boy." Kevin said flirtatiously, leaning on the locker next to Edd's.
"Hello again." Edd smiled and pecked his boyfriend on the lips who to his credit only melted a little.
Kevin backed him into the door of his locker and kissed him more thoroughly, much to the chagrin of Nazz.
She rolled her eyes. "Come on, hurry it up."
Kevin backed up and licked his lips. "Ugh, you ruin everything." He groaned at his friend.
She shoved the redhead's shoulder to push him from crowding Edd to address him. "Kevin said you had a favor to ask?"
Kevin nearly stumbled from the force. If that was a playful shove he wondered how Eddy's organs survived the gut punch she delivered.
"Oh!" Edd snapped back to reality from the daze he was in from the deep kiss. "Yes. I have an appointment nearby and could use a ride if you have the time."
"An appointment? A therapy appointment?" She asked with excitement.
"Yeah. I…" he looked to Kevin, "don't think I can make this work without it and... I want it to." He had a shy smile. Kevin grabbed his hand and interlaced their fingers.
Nazz smiled at the two. "Any reason to take that first step is a good reason. I really hope it helps you. I'll definitely give you a ride, dude."
"Thank you. I'll send you the address."
"Sure thing. So now that that's out of the way- what happened last night! Kevin said Eddy broke in?"
"Yes, through my backyard. Luckily Kevin was there and was able to subdue him. He planned to vandalize my house and I threatened legal action. And he… well he saw my neck, and knows how it happened."
"No! What did he say?" She leaned all the way into his personal space and Edd closed his locker.
"He seemed real conflicted." Kevin responded, knowing that Edd was too far gone at that point to really comprehend Eddy's response.
"So long as he doesn't tell anyone I don't care how he feels about it. I'm just glad it's off my chest."
"I can't believe that jerk. One of these days he's gonna get what's really coming to him." She said with vigor. "And I hope we're all there to see it."
Edd nodded solemnly. He still missed their friendship despite everything but he'd never trust him enough to let him back in. It just wasn't possible to repair anymore and Edd knew he had to just move on.
"We'll keep you updated if anything else happens. I'm enlisting you to help me sack him if he crosses any lines."
"Put my fists to good use, sir." She saluted.
"I think he knows when he's beat." Edd said. "And I don't think it'll be necessary."
"But?" Kevin asked.
"But- if he does I'd prefer you not get in trouble on my behalf."
"Buuuut?" Nazz goaded.
"But… if lines are crossed, self defense is well within your rights." Edd stated matter-of-factly but with exasperation.
Nazz and Kevin gave each other a low five, and Edd scoffed but he did appreciate that they wanted to protect him.
They closed the door to the house after a very short trip. As soon as the door shut behind them Edd was pushed to the door and given a filthy kiss.
He'd been expecting it. He'd found it very enjoyable to tease his fingers along the skin just above Kevin's jeans button. When he'd first skirted his hand under the hem of his shirt while holding onto him they'd nearly hit a light pole. He knew he'd riled him up plenty when Kevin had grabbed his hand and stopped the bike to shoot him a look.
Kevin dropped to his knees and started to undo the button. "You're such a goddamn tease."
"I don't remember teasing. Just giving a preview."
Kevin had just got the button undone and the zipper down and was rubbing his hands up and down his clothed thighs. He leaned in and mouthed his erection through his briefs. Edd sighed and let his head rest on the door, until the doorbell rang and the door was pounded on like it was being tackled.
"Hey! Double D! Open up!" Sarah yelled from outside. She knocked just like her brother.
They both startled. Edd yelped and jumped forwards, the knocking right in his ear scaring him out of his wits, and with Kevin in front of him he tumbled forwards. Kevin tried to catch him but in the shuffle Edd's foot had come forward and hit him squarely in the most unfortunate of places and he made a pained cry. Both of them ended up in a heap on the floor with a thump.
Sarah heard the shuffle and stopped knocking.
"Double D? Are you okay in there?" She shouted through the door.
"Just a minute!" Edd squeaked, righting himself. He noticed Kevin on his side cupping his balls and gasping for breath. "Oh! Kevin. I'm so sorry."
"What's going on? Hurry up!" Sarah knocked again.
"Please wait, one minute." He replied, rubbing Kevin's back. Kevin made a 'give me a moment' hand gesture.
"Just answer the door." Kevin said breathlessly.
Edd looked at him and back at the door with worry. He made a 'go' motion so Edd went to open the door. He cracked it open to peer out.
"Hello, Sorry for the wait."
"Is everything alright?" She asked, trying to peek around him.
"Uh, yes. Well. You quite startled us." He peeked back at Kevin, still a heap on the floor and he chewed his lip in worry.
"Your fly is down." Sarah pointed to his crotch.
He made an embarrassed noise and zipped his pants behind the door. "Um, why are you here?"
"Oh, right! Here!" Sarah handed him an envelope with 'EDD' printed on it in a sloppy handwriting.
"I wrote Ed to let him know that he's allowed to write to you and he sent this. When you write him back you can give it to me to send."
Edd's eyes widened. His hands shook as he grabbed the letter. "Oh." His voice wavered.
"Well I guess I'll leave you to your boyfriend." She snickered.
"Thank you." He said seriously. He stepped out the door to give her a quick hug. "This means the world to me."
"Of course." She patted his back and smiled wide. He looked at the letter with awe and went back to his house.
He closed the door and Kevin was still on the ground. He seemed to be in less pain but he was still aching. Edd helped him to the couch and grabbed aspirin and an ice pack from the kitchen.
"I'm so sorry!"
Kevin shook his head and took the tablets. "It's fine, fuck though. What did she want?"
Edd showed him the letter. "Ed sent me something."
"Oh shit." He said with excitement but as he tried to sit up he flinched.
Edd handed him the ice pack and Kevin placed it between his legs and inhaled through his teeth.
"Do you need anything?" Edd asked. He rubbed his boyfriend's thigh and put the letter on the coffee table.
"Lay with me?" He opened his arms.
Edd crawled over him and settled in trying to avoid hurting him again.
Edd stared at the envelope while resting his head on Kevin's chest.
"You gonna read it?" Kevin asked, watching him look longingly at the letter.
"I'm kind of scared." He answered. He rubbed Kevin's stomach.
Kevin kissed Edd's temple. "I bet he misses you as much as you do him."
"You think?" he asked hopefully.
"I know." He said. There was a long pause and Edd didn't reach for the letter.
"Feeling any better?" Edd asked when Kevin's face wasn't twisted in pain anymore.
"Yeah. You know, this is gonna be really funny tomorrow. But right now I don't think I could laugh if I wanted."
"Do you think it'll bruise?"
"Nah. I've been knocked worse. Didn't realize I'd need to wear a cup while blowing you though." He almost laughed but winced. "Ow."
Edd chuckled. "Poor baby." He kissed Kevin's jaw. "May I?" He asked, hovering his hand over Kevin's pelvis. "I just wanna check to make sure it's not worse than it seems."
"Yeah, okay." He moved the ice pack.
Edd unbuttoned and pulled Kevin's pants down his hips. Kevin sighed at the relief from the pressure of his fly. Edd's hand went down to roll Kevin's balls in his hand.
"Let me know if it hurts."
"It's a little sore. But it's… oh fuck." Kevin moaned and he reclined his head.
"Good? Bad?" He asked while continuing to fondle. He really was checking for anything off but it seemed he was recovering quickly if his rapidly hardening dick was anything to go off of.
"Y-yeah."
"Yeah what? Good or bad." He stopped his hand just in case.
"Just yeah. Both. Fuck."
Edd shifted to sit on Kevin's legs. He cupped him for support with one hand and wrapped his other around his shaft.
"This okay?" He asked again.
"God babe. You're so good." Kevin moaned.
"I'll take that as a yes." He laughed and continued to give him a handjob. He thumbed the head and gathered his precum to use to pump him more smoothly.
"I wanted to get you off first." Kevin groaned.
"When you're feeling better you can do whatever you want to me. Right now though let me take care of you."
"Fuck." He groaned. "I love you so much."
"Tell me what you're going to do to me." Edd requested with an aroused gaze.
Kevin licked his lips. Edd asking for dirty talk was driving him crazy. He wouldn't have guessed from his shy demeanor that he'd be so into it but Edd was full of surprises and Kevin loved that about him.
"I'm gonna bring you to the bed after this and strip you naked." Edd twisted his hand and Kevin moaned. "Then I'm gonna lay you down and suck you off. Been thinking about it all day. Love your cock. Gonna bite your thighs up, I know you love it when I finger you open and mark you up."
Edd whined and shifted and squeezed him harder and started pumping faster. "We need to go get condoms. I want you in me so bad."
"Can't wait. Love your ass. Gonna mess you up." He was getting close and his sentences choppier and more strained.
"Yeah? Are you going to fuck me hard?" He'd started rutting against Kevin's legs.
"Nah. Gonna… gonna go slow. Fuck. Gonna really make love to you. I'll make it last all night baby."
Edd pumped faster. "How do you want me? From the front? Or behind?"
"Start from behind. Get you used to me filling you up. But I wanna see your face when you cum." Kevin was gripping the fabric of the couch and started to thrust his hips.
"Sounds like you've thought about it a lot."
"God, yes." Kevin groaned dizzy with pleasure.
Edd licked his lips and slid to the floor. He opened his mouth to swallow down Kevin's length.
"Fuck baby." Kevin's hand flew to the back of Edd's head. His hat knocked sideways and Kevin slid it off to bury his hand in his hair.
Edd hollowed his cheeks and continued to move his hand over the shaft. His throat was still sore from the weekend, so as much as he wanted to he refrained from letting it hit the back of his throat.
Kevin yanked his hair. "I'm about to cum."
He pulled off. "Mouth?"
"I wanna come on your face." He moaned.
"You'll probably need to sit up for that."
Kevin scooted back to sit up and groaned in pain.
"Oh, be careful."
He jerked himself to keep himself up, not wanting to lose his erection from the pain. "I completely forgot."
"Here. Let me." Edd pulled him off until he was back to the edge of an orgasm.
Kevin looked down and watched Edd bite his lip watching Kevin's leaking dick, lost in his own lust.
"Fuck you're so sexy."
"Are you going to come for me?" Edd asked, his voice laden with desire.
"Yeah, gonna-" Kevin groaned, his orgasm interrupted his train of thought and watched as thick ropes of cum shot across Edd's face.
Edd smiled up at him. "Better?"
Kevin tried to lean down to kiss him but winced again.
"Almost. It's not as bad now."
"Here." Edd pressed the cold pack back to the pained sack.
"Fuck! Cold!" He flinched.
"I know. Sorry." He said kissing his thigh.
"Fuck you're so pretty like this." He hissed through the freezing pain.
"How is it you're able to say that at a time like this." Edd laughed.
"Need to focus on something else."
Edd wiped at his face and Kevin huffed. He chuckled at how easy he was to read and licked it off his hand.
"You should eat more fruit." He said smacking his lips.
"Salty?"
"A little." He said. He took out his handkerchief and wiped the rest off.
"Hey. Come straddle my face." Kevin requested.
"How can you say stuff like that with a straight face." His cheeks burned but he removed his clothes and compiled.
"You love it." Kevin teased.
"Yeah." Edd said breathlessly, "I really do."
Kevin grabbed his boyfriend's hips and guided his dick to his mouth. Kevin sucked him like he was his favorite flavor lollipop. He hadn't quite figured out the same amount of technical skill Edd had and also unlike Edd his gag reflex was functional but he was enthusiastic.
He sucked the tip into his mouth and bobbed his head. His hands had moved from his hips to knead at his ass. His fingers slid along his crack.
Kevin moaned at Edd's twitching thrusts as he tried to hold himself back and pulled off to suck his finger before sliding it back to his hole, rubbing circles into the puckered flesh.
Edd breathed a hitched sigh and carded his fingers through the short hair at the top of Kevin's head.
Kevin licked up Edd's supple thigh and bit down hard.
"Ah- yes!" Edd moaned and jerked his hips. He hadn't expected him to so suddenly dig his teeth into the soft flesh.
He sucked the bite mark and kissed it. "You like that?"
He nodded while biting his lip with whine. He didn't trust himself to say anything. The sharp pain of the bite was intoxicating. Kevin was definitely tapping into something Edd didn't know he needed.
Kevin chuckled at the clear interest he was showing.
"Tell me." He commanded. Albeit lightly.
"Yes." His voice was shaky. "H-harder?" He asked.
Kevin's finger probed at his hole and slid in as he bit down again on the other side.
Edd's head flew back and he squeezed his thighs shut around Kevin's head, keening loud and long.
He laughed at the reaction. He bit up and down his thigh leaving teeth marks in his wake while pressing hard into his prostate.
Edd hiccuped a strained moan and came at a hard nip right in the junction of his pelvis and thigh.
He leaned forward unable to hold himself up on just his knees anymore. Kevin used one hand to milk the cum from his rapidly softening cock. His fingers inside still rubbing his bundle of overstimulated nerves
His thighs twitched as he took in deep gulping breaths between high pitched whimpers.
When he was finally completely drained Kevin kissed the purpling bites.
He awkwardly moved off Kevin's face and slid to the floor, boneless.
Kevin sat up, pain-free finally and pulled his satisfied boyfriend into his lap after wiping up the mess, he wasn't completely in that soft floating space but he seemed close.
"What is it like when you're out of it?"
"Mm. It's… like only what I can touch and feel exists. I stop worrying about the world outside and I'm allowed to only focus on that."
"It doesn't happen every time though. What do you think causes it?" Kevin asked.
"I'm not sure. But I like it." Edd ran his fingers over Kevin's defined abdominal muscles.
Edd bit his lip like he wanted to say something but decided against it.
"What do you want?" Kevin asked.
"Mm. No. It's weird." Edd said, burying his face in his chest.
"What is?" He stroked Edd's hair.
"I… would it be… n-never mind." He couldn't bring himself to ask.
"Babe." Kevin whispered. "What're you worried about? Tell me." He lifted his face to make him look at him.
Edd blushed and squeezed his eyes shut. "I… like it when it hurts… a little."
Kevin tried not to laugh at Edd's apprehension. "I know. I wouldn't have bit you up like that if I didn't think you'd like it."
Edd peeked at Kevin, still embarrassed but less mortified.
"You want to try it a little harder next time?"
"Yeah?" He asked, nervous but hopeful.
Kevin grinned and pulled his hair. Not too hard but enough to shock Edd into a whimpering moan.
"What're you thinking? What do you want me to do?"
"Mm. I dunno." He was obviously very pleased judging by his half lidded eyes.
"Tell me when it's too much." He asked as he gripped his hair harder.
Edd's eyes unfocused and his short nails scraped across Kevin's pectorals.
He pulled his head back by yanking his hair and bit his shoulder.
"Ah!" Edd gasped. "H-harder."
He bit down harder and pinched one of his peaked nipples, the hand in his hair tightening. Edd shuddered.
"Where you at, baby?" He asked. "Feeling okay?"
"G-good."
He recognized Edd slipping in and out of lightheaded pleasure. "What's your fantasy babe?"
"M-maybe handcuffs?" He said remembering how much he liked when Kevin grabbed his wrists as he thrusted against him.
"You love being held down, huh? Wouldn't mind putting a collar on you. Would you like that? To be my pet?"
"Yes!" He nearly sobbed. His head thrashed and chest heaved. He went wild from just the mere thought of being leashed.
"You just came baby. Think you can do it again?"
He rolled him over to push him to the couch and he shook his head but moaned out a little, "Please."
Kevin definitely couldn't get it back up so quickly and was constantly surprised at how short Edd's refractory period was. Not even five minutes and he was already ready for another round.
He palmed him but Edd whimpered. "N- can't. It's so much."
He wasn't sure what to do if touching him directly was too overstimulating but he seemed to still be wound up. He redirected his hand and pressed his thumb into one of his darkening bite marks on his thighs and Edd's muscles clenched and he gasped.
"God, you're so hot." Kevin pressed down harder into the love bite.
"Kevin." Edd whimpered and wrapped his arms around the redhead's neck. "You make me so happy."
That seemed to be Kevin's activation phrase because Kevin growled and covered Edd's body with his own and he kissed him until neither could breathe. When he pulled back they were both panting and Edd's was blissed out again, completely lost in his pleasure.
He used his blunt nail to help dig into the mark and Edd's head fell back in absolute pleasure exposing his long neck.
Kevin took that as an invitation and gave a sharp bite to the expanse of already splotchy skin. Edd's nails scratched Kevin's shoulder blades as his back arched with a silent scream. He bit down harder but Edd didn't give him any indication of being too painful. Instead his legs came up to wrap around his waist and he shook like he was having another orgasm but nothing came out. He panted and fell back to the couch, jelly legged and content. Kevin's mouth suddenly tasted like iron and he let go with fear.
He rubbed the bite mark and cringed, he'd broken the skin. It was only bleeding a little but Edd seemed to have enjoyed it like crazy, he was euphoric in his post-orgasmic haze, his breath coming out in heaving pants.
"You really liked that, huh?" He asked with awe.
He made a happy affirmative noise.
Kevin gulped. This might be a bit out of his league. That was definitely liking pain more than just a bit. "Can you tell me how you're feeling?"
"Mm-mm. Dunno...good." he said dreamily.
"Come on, come back to me, baby." Kevin tucked a strand of hair behind Edd's ear. He needed to get him ointment for that bite. He frowned at how painful it looked.
He nuzzled the hand. "'M here."
Kevin chuckled. "Are you?"
"Mm-hm. Love you." Edd slurred.
Kevin trailed kisses from his cheek, the corner of his mouth, to his lips. "Babe, let me up. I need to grab something for your neck."
"Nnnoooo." Edd hummed into the kiss and hugged him.
"How about something to eat?" Kevin asked.
"M'ybe." Edd said. "Tired of soup."
"Yeah? What do you want then?"
"Spicy."
Kevin laughed at how vague he was like this. Usually he couldn't be more specific. "Mexican?"
"M'kay." He answered.
"I need to get my phone to order it." Kevin said, trying to extract himself. Edd kissed the hand he'd trapped between his cheek and arm but then let it go.
He got up to get his phone and Edd stretched out but stayed put. Before Edd could grab him again he went to get some neosporin and a wet paper towel.
When he returned Edd put his arms out for a hug. His face lit up like it was Christmas when he saw him. Kevin scooped Edd up and wrapped him in a throw blanket from the end of the couch and Edd happily cuddled into him.
"Don't leave again." Edd's voice was thick and sounded lonely.
"Okay Love. I won't. Can you show me your neck?" He said, uncapping the salve.
"Mmm." Was all Edd could say but he did as he was told.
Kevin frowned at the mark. Blood had welled to the surface. He wiped it away and Edd moaned softly.
He rubbed the cream into the wound.
"Feels so good." Edd slurred in his dreamy haze.
Kevin itched to know more about Edd's zoning out. He liked it, sure, but was it healthy? What if it was something bad? He capped the balm back up and pulled Edd to his chest to lay together.
He tried typing in some keywords that explained his state on his phone but all he could find was articles about disassociation, which honestly scared him. It seemed to be detailing the same thing that happened when Edd had been cleaning. Were they the same thing?
"Babe, what does it feel like when you get into that cleaning mode? When you were scrubbing the carpet."
"Mm." He started to come to slightly. "Nothing. It's like I'm just not there."
"And this right now is different?" He asked.
"Yeah." He said with a smile. "Feels good."
"Okay." He said looking back at the phone with confusion. "What about back in the shower? The first time? What was that like?"
"It was… I dunno. I'd never felt like it before. A lot like now. But a lot like the other thing too."
It didn't help a lot but it at least confirmed they felt different.
"And last night?"
"Like this, but less." He said. "Hm. Why?"
"I'm trying to find information on it but I don't really know what to look for."
"I think it's when I'm giving up control." He mumbled. "In the shower, yesterday, earlier. I like it when you own me. I like giving you pleasure but I really like it when you push me over my limits."
Kevin blushed. "Oh?"
"I liked when you said you'd get me a collar." He could talk again and his slurring had stopped but Kevin knew he'd never say this if he wasn't still mostly in that place. "Love when you call me pet."
Kevin bit his lip. He'd keep that in mind.
"You're still really in it, aren't you?"
"Yeah." Edd smiled. "It's s'good." He moved his head to motion to the bite he'd left. "I keep moving my head and it makes me feel it all over again."
Kevin looked at it and his eyes widened, The imprint of his teeth was darker than just 15 minutes before and it looked like it won't be healing any time soon. "I need to put some ice on that. Fuck, I'm sorry baby."
"I like it." His eyes rolled back and he gasped when Kevin brushed it with his fingers. It was incredibly tender.
"It looks bad." He said with worry. "Like you were attacked."
"I want to show it off. I can't wait until my neck is only marked by you." He said with a happy lilt. Edd in this headspace was too seductive.
"I dunno if I want anyone to see that one." Kevin said. "I don't want anyone to think I'm trying to scar you up."
"Is it really that bad?" Edd asked. He tried to touch it but Kevin held his hand to stop him.
"Yeah, It's bad. I'm almost worried it'll scar."
"The ice pack needs to go back in the freezer." Edd said, pointing to the discarded melted bag on the floor.
"I'm gonna go put it back. Do you have sandwich bags?"
"Below the silverware drawer."
"I'm gonna bring back ice then."
He moved Edd to sit up and did what he said he would, bringing back a bag of ice with a hand towel wrapped around it.
"Here we go." He pressed it to the bite.
Edd sighed. "Oh. That feels amazing."
The doorbell rang for the food and Kevin had him hold it against his own neck before throwing his pants back on.
He handed the delivery man a tip and brought the food over.
Kevin threw on the TV and they dug into the takeout. Edd holding the ice pack to his neck made it harder for him to eat so he put it down until he finished off his food. Afterwards Kevin cleaned up, Edd tried to help but he wouldn't let him, telling him instead to keep icing his neck.
Eating had helped ground Edd and now the mark smarted in a much less sexy way, it was still rather nice though.
When Kevin came back Edd was holding the letter.
"Finally gonna read it?" He asked.
"I'm thinking about it." He said with worry. "I liked when I couldn't worry about what's in here."
Kevin sat next to him. "Need me to do anything?"
Edd leaned against his boyfriend. "What if it's him denouncing our friendship? Or telling me he hates me for not helping him? What if he-"
Kevin kissed him to break his spiraling, it doubled to calm him. "None of that will happen. He's going to be excited he gets to finally talk to you. He's going to ask how you're doing and tell you how he's been. Okay?"
Edd breathed in deeply. "Okay… okay." He sighed.
He looked back at the letter and carefully opened the seal.
His eyes scanned the letter and tears sprung to his eyes. After a few minutes he laughed a little and flipped over the paper to see a drawing and sniffled but with a watery smile.
"He's got a new obsession apparently. He started collecting cards." He dumped out the envelope and a monster card from some game he'd never seen before fell out. "He made some friends without Eddy and he wants to see me over the summer, he asked me to put together a deck of this game to play him when he comes back." He sobbed happily. "His drawing has gotten better too."
"See? What did I tell you?" He wiped his boyfriend's eyes with his thumbs as Edd sobbed again, his breath hitching.
"You were right, of course."
"What're you going to write him back?" He asked with a smile.
"I'll have to tell him about us, obviously and I'll have to learn the rules for this game." He held the card to his chest. "He says he misses me." His lip wobbled. "Thank you." He whispered to Kevin. He was looking at him with wet adoring eyes.
"I told you."
"No. Not just that. For everything, for saving me, for loving me, for not giving up." He wrapped his arms around his neck and hugged him tight, burrowing his face into Kevin's neck. "I love you."
Kevin's heart thudded loudly. He said it more than once while he was out of it but now, in his right mind, saying it without fear or trepidation, Kevin pulled him back to look in his eyes.
"Not too soon?" He parroted back to him, cupping his cheek.
Edd shook his head. "No. Not too soon." They kissed slowly.
Kevin pulled Edd to his chest. "I love you too."
They relaxed into the embrace for a while longer, letting the moment sit with them.
"We need to do homework." Edd sighed, unenthused by schoolwork for the first time.
"Do we?" Kevin knew he had homework due himself tomorrow but Edd was more important right now.
"Yeah…" Edd sighed and stood up and put his own pants back on. "Show me the syllabi for your classes."
"Huh? Why?"
"We're gonna do any homework due for the next few days so we have plenty of time tomorrow. I have a feeling it's going to be a long day."
Kevin turned pink at the memory of his own plan to buy the things they need to finally go all the way.
"Yeah, okay." He shook the thought away, he wasn't going to expect anything. After therapy he'd do whatever Edd needed. It just happened to be a convenient time to buy them.
"I don't have them here. I'll have to go get them from my house."
"Okay. I'll start setting up."
Kevin made a dip into his house, trying to avoid his parents. He didn't want to be caught in a long conversation about where he's been. He knew they'd be fine with it but he knew his mom would give him flack about 'being safe' and try to give him the sex talk- like she did literally every time he'd started dating anyone. You'd think she'd realized he knew what he was doing by his third girlfriend. Besides, he wanted to introduce Edd when he told them.
After some digging he came back with the folder he threw his syllabi in on the first day of school before he promptly forgot about them and snuck back out. He breathed a sigh of relief when he made it back to door, and locked it behind him.
"Hey." He heard a familiar voice. Kevin turned and nearly threw a punch at the short-stack. Eddy was standing there on his lawn kicking dirt.
"What the fuck do you want?" He spat.
"Was what he said yesterday true?" Eddy asked. He looked like he hadn't slept. Thinking about it he hadn't seen him at school today either. Not that he usually did, but he was keeping an eye out.
Good. He thought. I hope it haunts him.
"Which part? That he spent too much time on your friendship? That you're not worth it? That you don't think?"
"I get it, you hang on his every word. I meant that you found him… you know. Like that?"
"Yeah. Yeah. I found him 'like that' and it was the scariest shit." He said with malcontent. "I didn't know if he was alive or dead and he was bleeding all over the tile."
Eddy scrunched his eyes shut and crossed his arms. "I never… I didn't want that to happen. I just… I don't know."
"Of course you don't. Well I have to get back to him. I'm warning you now, he's being too nice and asked me not to punch your lights out unless you start shit. I won't go against him, but Nazz promised nothing."
"I don't wanna fight." He put his hands up. "I know he won't forgive me but… for what it's worth I am sorry."
"And why the fuck should anyone believe you?"
"I don't know. I just didn't think about what was right, just about myself. Like usual. After everything with my brother I should have… no. It's no one's fault but my own. I just wanted to fit in. I used him being gay as a reason to drop him because my other friends didn't like him and I just wanted to be liked. I didn't think about the fact he didn't have anyone else. I was wrong. And I'm glad he has you, even if you are an asshole."
"I'm not gonna tell him that because I'm not your gopher. If you want him to know you'll need to say it to his face. But right now I'm not going to let you. He's got too much other shit on his plate. But If you're serious about apologizing to him you better do way better than that."
"Okay." Eddy said. "I deserved that. I'll work on it."
"You better." Kevin didn't wait for a reply and stormed back to Edd's house. He shot one more glare at the bastard before closing the door behind him.
As soon as he saw Edd chewing his thumb while working on a difficult problem his annoyance melted away. He placed the folder on the table and kissed the top of his head.
"I swear you get more sexy every time I see you."
"Flattery won't get you out of homework." Edd chided with a playful smile.
"Wouldn't dream of it. Let's get all of this done so we can make-out the rest of the night." He said with energy.
Edd chuckled. "Well, whatever motivates you. It looks like you have some math work and a geography worksheet due tomorrow and the next day an essay for English." That shouldn't be too hard to get done."
"Yeah, I already got the worksheet done. She handed it out during class."
"Good! One less thing to do. If you need any help let me know." He smiled at the incentive. He was so used to Ed and Eddy asking him to do their work. Kevin doing his own work with very little protest was refreshing.
His math was done quickly but the essay was annoying. He should have started it earlier but Edd had twice as much work as he did so he wasn't going to complain. It was dark out by the time they finished.
Edd yawned and stretched. "How are you?"
"Done. What about you?"
"Just finished. How long have you been done?"
"I finished editing my essay about an hour ago. How did you have so much work?"
"I did all of the week's work while I was at it. And some of my teachers just added some extra credit assignments."
"Well now that that's done." Kevin cornered Edd. "I think we both deserve a reward."
Edd giggled a little before yawning. "How about we move to the bed."
Kevin kissed him and Edd yawned again in the middle of it.
Kevin chuckled. "Okay, bed time it is."
Kevin helped Edd up and they packed their bags for tomorrow and cleaned up. When they fell into bed Edd curled onto Kevin's chest. After a few minutes of open mouthed kissing that Kevin kept light and sweet Edd yawned loud and Kevin stroked his hair.
"Go to sleep. Tomorrow's a big day."
"Sleepy sleepy sleepy." Edd murmured but kissed him again. "G'Night."
They both fell asleep soon after.
