Hide and Seek Ch 2

"I missed you," Kevin whispered sheepishly, his eyes cast down. Edd brushed his fingertips along Kevin's cheek, "I missed you too Kev." Edd grabbed Kevin, closing the distance between them.

The alarm clock was blaring. Kevin and Edd were entwined on the floor. Kevin groaned.

"Turn it off, what the hell," he buried his head in Edd's chest. There was a knock at the door.

"Edd? Breakfast is ready, you're going to be late!"

Both Edd and Kevin bolted up, very much awake.

"Shit, what time is it," Kevin shoved on his pants in haste.

"Well past eight o'clock Kev, that was what the alarm is for," Edd rushed to help Kevin grab his clothing.

"My dad is going to be so pissed if I'm late."

Edd watched as Kevin redressed, his ginger hair still tousled and small bags forming under his emerald eyes. Edd smiled quietly to himself, brushing a lock of his black hair behind his ear. He got up and walked towards Kevin, hugging him from behind.

"Huh? Edd what are you doing?" Kevin turned around and was met by Edd's lips.

"I thought, perhaps, I could give you a kiss for the road?"

Kevin smiled and pushed Edd down onto the bed. He looked at Edd, whom was still in just a pair of boxers and socks.

"Kevin!" Edd exclaimed.

"Shh!" Kevin smiled; he covered Edd's mouth with his hand, and began to kiss down Edd's chest. Kevin heard Edd's muffled whimper and groaned.

"I really can't be late again," Kevin removed his hand to reveal Edd's disappointed frown. "Tonight," Kevin kissed Edd's forehead, "We will finish this tonight." Kevin got up from the bed.

Edd sighed, "I suppose it will have to wait; can't have the Captain suspecting anything."

Kevin frowned, "Edd, I'm sorry, I don't want to have this conversation right now." Kevin walked over to the window. "You know how he is. I can't…" Kevin sighed, "I just can't, okay?" Edd walked over to Kevin, and touched his arm.

"Kev, I know, I'm sorry. I shouldn't have said anything, I-"

"Yeah, you shouldn't have." Kevin brushed off Edd's hand.

"I'll see you at school." Kevin kissed Edd's cheek and crawled out the window, leaving Edd alone in his room, with his thoughts.
