Eddy drove them to school that morning, it was quite the normal routine. They picked Ed up, having to wake him up perusal. What would the lug do without them? Probably miss school almost every day. The car ride was less about Edd's date the day before and more over what movies they would be watching that upcoming weekend. Other than that it was quite harmless and usual banter among the Ed's. Edd was just happy that both of his friends didn't seem too bothered or even care too much about his new found relationship.
Things were actually going great for once, their little group of misfits seem to have a new place at the table of individuals on a much higher ranking in the social hierarchy. It was kind of nice to think about. Edd walked into school, not even thinking about the large jacket with Kevin's name plastered on the back slung over his shoulders. He was still in deep debate with Eddy over which monster movie was better. It was now between Sharknado and Eight Legged Freaks. Both were respectively grand movies in their own right, but Edd was pushing for the giant spiders.
Though as they walked more into the cafeteria, the buzzing of almost all the schools population in the morning there were slight stars turned Edd's way. He tried his best to ignore them, dating Kevin garnered him a bit more attention than he would have liked. But at the same time he couldn't say it was all negative. Far from it. No one had bothered him through the halls since they started sitting at Kevin's table. There was a lot less fear as he roamed from class to class doing various things.
The next few weeks would be like this, Edd would get a ride with Eddy, meet up with Kevin for a bit in the morning and walk him to class before he went on about his day. He would have lunch with his red head boyfriend and also his close friends. Things couldn't be possibly better for brunette. About two weeks passed before Edd found the perfect thing for his and Kevin's second official date. They had hung out a bit after school when they both had extracurricular activities. Such was the case the Friday Edd had set up everything for that weekend.
Edd happily walked out of his class once more to head out to the football field, most of the other players were used to seeing Edd show up every Monday and Friday for Kevin. So they would of course keep an eye out for him and if they saw him first they would tease Kevin about his 'boy-toy wondering up'. Though it never bothered Edd as much as it did Kevin, who would huff and act so frustrated at the team. Even though he knew it was harmless hazing.
Edd walked up as usual, his hand on the bad slung over his shoulder, he was wearing the Letterman Kevin had given him. He wore it quite a bit actually, almost everyday it seemed to get too cold for the brunette just to dawn a simple long sleeve shirt. Edd smiled that sweet smile at the team, waving at them a bit as he walked closer. He always made sure to time it during the end or practice so he didn't disrupt them.
"Salutations good sirs." Edd spoke happily as he walked up to the team, not quite seeing Kevin yet as he glanced around. "May I inquire as to Kevin's whereabouts?" He asked looking up to one of the line men who just shrugged a bit. There really hasn't been too much of an issue with any of the team bothering with him thus far so Edd didn't feel too anxious standing by the group waiting.
"I think he went to the bathroom, he'll be back double D." Another spoke up with a smile towards the brunette. Edd simply nodded and grinned brightly up at them. There were one or two of the team that have admitted Edd was quite the cute one. Though of course they wouldn't say a word around his hot headed boyfriend. Kind of a bad ideas. Other's didn't mind seeming him or just plane couldn't care less. There was some small talk between a few of them and Edd, simple things like school, some of them even asking Edd for some advice on a few upcoming projects in classes. It was kind of nice.
Their conversation went along as they waited, soon enough the object of Edd's search would stroll up. Those emerald green eyes taking a once over at his team huddled around Edd. While Kevin hated to admit it, he was easy to make jealous. He also knew some of the team could be flirtatious jackasses. So Kevin took some steps closer, not yet having changed from his padding. He strolled up, more behind poor little Edd. This made the three jocks around him give a slight glance as they stopped speaking. The brunette paused as well, he tilted his head some. A quizzical look spread across his features.
Though suddenly there would be arms wrapping around him, it was a tight strong hold pulling him in. At first Edd panicked and tried his hardest to wedge his way out of the grip. That was until his head tilted back and he saw the read head looming over him. Edd's face was airbrushed with a soft pink, though he smiled up at Kevin.
"You startled me, Kev." Edd spoke in more of a slight huff, but that smile never left his features. He still was not the best with public displays of affection but he found Kevin to be warm and then embrace to be pleasant enough. There were a few snickers from the other jocks. Before they actually teased him a bit.
"Geeze didn't think captain 'Kev' could be so soft!" One of them laughed and Kevin gave a sharp glare his way.
"Oh yeah? I can show you soft Joe." Kevin grumbled as he held Edd tighter in his arms, The brunette bit his lip and slightly shifted in the almost strangling hold. This at least caused Kevin to loosen his grip. "Sorry Dee." He muttered down at him. Edd moved to turn in his hold once it was loose enough and he gave a delighted and almost enthusiastic air about him. Not something Kevin had expected from him.
"I finally acquired an event for our next romantic outing. It is all prepared for tomorrow." Edd said this positively beaming. God that was the cutest thing Kevin has ever seen. He seemed to be so proud of whatever he had picked out. It must be big since he waited weeks before saying anything about his plans. Edward then pulled out two tickets? Kevin took them slowly from the overzealous brunette.
"Dee... are these hokey tickets? Holy shit these are actually great seats." Kevin spoke as he read the tickets over. Those green eyes looked back to the bashful Edd.
"I hoped you greatly enjoyed the sport, I had noted you speaking about the preseason events so I took it upon myself to plan this for our romantic escapade." Edd said with a sheepish smile as he rubbed the back of his head. Kevin snickered a bit before leaning down to peck the top of Edd's head. His lips soft and gentle on his forehead.
"This is perfect De-" He was cut off by a few mocking awes from his team behind Edd. Those blue eyes glanced back at them and his face flushed a bright red, for a moment he had almost forgotten the group was there. Kevin seemed to give an annoyed look before he released Edd from his grasp. "I have to go change, but I will grab you when I'm done. Just wait here."
