Chapter 3: Serving You at Lunch, Nya!

Rrriiinnnggg!!!

"Whoo-Hoo!" Eddy cheered as he busted out through the doors of the classroom and out into the hallways of the school, "Lunchtime is here at last!"

Eddy soon waited for his two friends to come out of the classroom. And when they did, the three Ed's, and everyone else, soon trailed to the lunchroom. Meanwhile, the five new girls could only follow the others, thinking that if they followed them, they would get to the lunchroom.

Soon everyone got in the lunch line except for the five new girls, who had brought their lunches with them. Everyone then got their lunch and sat down in their usual areas. The three Ed's soon noticed that the five girls were sitting further down beside them.

Eddy seemed a bit surprised; why in the world would they want to sit over here? He soon set his eyes on Corina; she opened her lunch box, only to reveal her lunch. She had an apple, a really good looking sandwich, a big, chocolate chip cookie with some kind of chunked mints baked into it; it seemed to be homemade. She also had a canister of what looked to be a tea of some kind.

Double D soon noticed Eddy looking at the five girls; Corina in particular, "Eddy?"

"… Hmm?" questioned Eddy with a sort of dazed voice as he then looked towards Double D to see what he had to say.

"Why are you not eating?" Double D asked the short Ed, "It is unhealthy to not eat at this crucial part of the day."

"… I'm not hungry," was Eddy's reply as he turned back towards the girl named Corina.

Double D arched an eyebrow at Eddy's unusual behavior, 'Strange… why is he acting like this?'

Meanwhile, with the five Mews…

"Yum!" Kikki stated as she ate her lunch, "The lunch that Elliot and Wesley made tastes good!"

"Yeah, seems they pulled out all of the stops for this," Ichigo said as she bit into her sandwich.

It was Renée who noticed Bridget acting a little unusual, "Is there something wrong with your food, Bridget?"

"… No; I-It's not that…" was Bridget's reply; she sounded somewhat distant.

Ichigo soon noticed that Bridget was looking at one of the three boys on the other side of the table from them; the one with the black beanie. She pieced together what was going on.

"… Say, why don't we introduce ourselves to the others students here and get to know their name?" Ichigo stated to the other four as they looked at her with confusion.

"Why on Earth would you want to do that?!" asked Corina with slight anger, "We are here to find a new threat, not to make new friends."

"Well, if we need to investigate anyone here about the new threat, it would be nice to know their names, ya know?" Ichigo replied to her blue haired friend.

"… That's fine with me," Renée stated with a nod of her head as everyone looked at her with surprise; usually Renée would not introduce herself openly to others.

"… Well, if it is alright with Renée, than I suppose it'll be okay with me," Corina said with a bit of reluctance in her voice.

"Yay!" cheered Kikki, "We get to meet new people!"

"Great, then it's settled!" Ichigo stated as she and the four other girls got up from where they sat. She decided to go to the nearest kids to them; the Ed's.

Meanwhile, back with the Ed's…

Double D had finally persuaded Eddy in eating his lunch, and just as Eddy was about to take a swig of his milk, he stopped at who was coming towards him and his two friends; the five new girls.

Eddy widened his eyes in shock; were they coming over here? Double D and Ed noticed the panic in Eddy's eyes as they both turned to where he was looking at, only to discover the five girls' right behind them.

"Hi!" Ichigo greeted with a wave and a smile.

"Oh, Hello, umm…" Double D greeted back, until her name slipped his mind. He recovered it about a second later, "… Ichigo, was it not?"

"Yep, that's me," she replied with a nod of her head, "We have all decided to get to know everyone's name, because it would be nice to know, am I right?"

"Oh, that seems to be a fine idea," Double D stated back to Ichigo, "My name is Eddward with two D's, so everyone calls me Double D."

"I'm Ed!" Ed stated with a wave and a smile.

Soon the spotlight came to Eddy, who seemed to tense up a little as he glanced towards Corina, "I-I'm Eddy," he managed to say without too much of a stutter. Too bad the stutter fell onto Double D's and, unfortunately, Kevin's ears.

"Huh?" Kevin muttered as he looked over towards the Ed's, only to see the five new girls over there as well.

Of course, whatever can get Kevin's attention will get everyone else's attention as well. Now, everyone else was wondering why the new girls were over with the Ed's. But what really caught Kevin's attention the most was that Eddy was staring at one of the girls with a gentle smile on his face; the girl named Corina was who he was looking at. A smirk grew across the jock's face, 'Well, well, well! What do we have here?'

Meanwhile, back with the Ed's and the five girls…

"Well, it was nice to meet you all," Renée said as she glanced at the other kids in the lunch room, "We have to introduce ourselves to the other kids now."

"Oh, that's right!" Kikki stated as they all then left the three Ed's to go to the other kids.

The Ed's sat there in silence before Double D said, "Well, that was an interesting event, right gentlemen?"

There was an awkward pause for a moment before one of the Ed's made a dream-like sigh.

"Huh?" questioned both Double D and Ed as they glanced at Eddy, who had his hand up to his face in a daydreaming-like way, "Corina…"

"Eddy?" Double D questioned as he waved his right hand in front of Eddy's face, only to get no response from his, 'Hmm… no response that way…'

Soon Double D thought of a way to get Eddy's attention as he made a sigh at the thought; will he really…? He reached into his right pants pocket and pulled out a quarter. Double D then dangled the coin in front of Eddy, "Eddy, do you notice this in front of you?"

Eddy seemed to stare at it for a second before he blinked rapidly, "… Hey, when did you get a quarter without me knowing?!" he stated with a sort of made voice.

"Yay!" Ed said with a happy voice, "Eddy's back to normal!"

Double D soon pocketed his quarter back into his pocket, "Eddy, why have you been acting do strange?" he asked his short friend across from him, "You have been out of it all day."

"… I dunno," Eddy replied with a slightly irritated sigh.

Eddy's eye widen with sudden realization as he contained a gasp within himself. Double D noticed this, "What is it?" he asked.

"Guys," Eddy started to say, "Do ya remember that one time when everyone tried to get Nazz's attention?"

"… Yes, I remember that day very vaguely," Double D replied with a nod of his head.

"Well, I, uh… I-I have that same feeling again when I… look at Corina," Eddy quickly muttered at a very fast pace.

That's when it clicked in Double D's mind at what Eddy was talking about, "Eddy… Are you admitting that you have a crush on Corina?"

"Uhh…" Eddy muttered once again rubbing the back of his head in embarrassment, "… Y-Yeah, I guess so."

"Aww," Ed cooed a little, "Eddy has found his Jelly Girl, for he is Peanut Butter Boy!"

"…"

"…"

Both Double D and Eddy didn't know how to respond to Ed's comment.

Yippie! I've updated this one!

Uh-oh, Kevin figured out that Eddy likes Corina! How will he use this information in the future? You'll have to wait and see, my friends...
