CHAPTER 16: stevie, friday 5:57 p.m.
BEEP! BEEP! I heard the alarm that let me know my spahgetti
had been boiling long enough. Crud, I still didn't have all my earings
in. "Edd?!?" I yelled downstairs. "Can you turn off the stove?" I
listened for a response and it never came. "Oooh man," I sighed.
I ran (or walked as fast as I could) downstairs to find Double-D
in the corner of the kitchen, hunched in a little ball. "What the heck?"
I murmured, going to the stove where I looked at my spaghetti -and it
didn't look right. I sighed, turned off the stove, put on the fan, and
turned to face the fleshy ball in the corner. "Double-D?"
His hands came off from over his eyes, "Yes Stevie?"
"What don't you understand about turning off the stove?"
Edd rised from his fetal posistion. "I know -it just seems rather
unsafe if you know what I mean."
I stared at him dumbfoudned -that was pathetic, "You, the
Peach Creek's own Boy Genius, is scared of heat?" He nodded. I
looked at him blank and finally got out the words, "So you let my
pasta burn, the pasta I was making for my date, because you're
scared?!?"
Edd shrugged and then looked puzzled, "It's not a date Stevie."
"Okay, fine Double-Dork!" I admit, I had just lost my temper and
in case you hadn't noticed, I seem to have a tendencey to do that.
Anywhoo, I was p.o.ed at my cousin, "I know it's not a date! Fine, just
a dinner I'm making for a friend!" DING-DONG! Crud, Kevin was
here. "Be right back," I muttered, mad. I mean, my hair was still wet
from my shower (I took one because I'd been swimming earlier) and I
still had on my normal clothes.
I opened the door. "Hi," I greeted Kevin.
I saw he was wearing his normal clothes, so I had nothing to
worry about there. "Hi," he smiled, handing me a boquet of daisys.
"Oh my," my voice trailed off -and I think my bad mood did too.
"They're beautiful!" I exclaimed. I gave him a hug, which was kinda
akward for us and then I said, "C'mon in."
Kevin nodded and then I saw Double-D heading for the door.
Kevin nodded, "Hey Double-D."
"Salutations, Kevin," I swear, what a dork he is. "I"m going over
to Ed's, Stevie. Get me if you need me."
"Wait, wait, wait Edd!" I put out my hand and said, "If you ruin
dinner, you can at least force over some money for me to get a
pizza."
He looked at me, "You serious, Stephanie?"
"Serious, Edward."
He sighed, looked at me, and dug around in his pocket. Out
came a twenty. "This is all I have, sorry Stevie. I just seem to have a
fear of ovens."
I smiled, "Thanks Double-D."
He nodded and then left. I sighed and then I looked to see
Kevin -crud! I forgot he was still here!!! I smiled, "You can sit down
and make yourself at home Kev, no need to be all stiff."
"Uh..."
I thought and remembered I'd be in the kitchen, "If you want,
you can come in the kitchen." I grinned.
Kevin grinned back, "Sure."
"So, any specific kind of pizza you enjoy?" I inquired.
"No specifications here," Kevin said, pulling out a chair from my
aunt and uncle's dinette (kinda tacky, but oh well -whatever floats
your boat).
"So... Is mushrooms okay?"
He cocked an eyebrow and smiled mysteriously. "Sorry Steve,"
that was his new name for me by the way... I liked it! He continued, "I
thought you'd include meat in that order."
Oh man, and this is the guy I fell for? The one I have a
humongo crush on, even though I've only known him for a week?
Wow, what is wrong with me?!? UGH! But Kev looked so cute sitting
there, I suddenly remembered why I liked him in the first place: his
personality. "Okay Kev, how does a large mushroom, with half
anchovies sound?"
"Anchovies?"
I burst out laughing, I couldn't even stand the smell of them and
poor Kevin couldn't even hear my sarcasm! My friend Danny, back
home, once ordered a pizza when we went out for pizza with some
our friends. He got it with mushrooms and anchovies, and I couldn't
even stand the smell of salt so I had to go get my own table! Thank
goodness my best friend, Sammie, followed.
"Stevie?"
I was drawn out of my remembering to see Kevin with a
concerned look on his face. I smiled and said, "I'm okay!" But then of
course, I burst out laughing again.
Kevin got up and put his arm around me, "You okay, Stevie?"
"Yeah, just a lil' case of hysteria there," I grinned and noticed
his arm. I didn't want the moment to end -did he like me too?
"Nice," Kevin said, followed by a big grin and a chuckle. "I love
your laugh, Steve," he looked at me, and took his arm off of me.
"Thanks," I paused. "Seriously, does mushroom with half
pepperoni sound okay?"
He nodded and I grabbed for the phone.
