CLIFF HANGER
Kevin's POV
They sat there for a while before Kevin heard Edd sigh and stand, Kevin looked at him and frowned, "we have to go?"
He was expecting Edd to stay, but he smiled and picked Kevin up, (who squealed). Edd laughed, "I have encompassed more plans for you pumpkin~" Kevin blushed again, but this time it was different. He smiled instead of looking away. Kevin hugged Edd again, he never thought this would happen, but it was and Kevin couldn't help himself but feel on top of the world. Kevin clambered around and found himself back on Edd's back. Double D pulled himself over the building and carefully, yet rather hastily climbed down. Once they reached the bottom Edd hesitated. Kevin watched him carefully until he realized where he was looking.
Kevin laughed, "You want to take my bike again, don't you?" Edd looked down at Kevin who frowned, "yes, except you don't know where to go." Kevin frowned, he forgot about that. He assumed Edd saw his expression because Edd started to laugh.
"It's ok pumpkin, there will be other times we can utilize your motorcycle." Edd smirked and began to walk to his car. Kevin walked with him happily. They rounded the corner and found Edd's car parked near the very back of the school. Kevin reached for the door, when he saw a hand open it for him. Edd grinned at him and Kevin blushed, quickly getting in while smiling. Edd walked around and took his seat while starting the car.
Edd pulled out of the parking lot and continued down the road. Edd started going on the same route as they had the other night, until Kevin found him pulling into a familiar parking lot. Kevin looked at him confused. Edd gave him the same expression, "would you prefer somewhere else?" Kevin shook his head no and Double D smiled, "I presumed you would be hungry, you have not eaten in nearly 6 hours."
Kevin looked away, you was secretly very hungry, he just thought he would wait until he got home. He didn't think Edd would take him out. Double D got out of his side and quickly made his way next to Kevin. Edd frowned, and Kevin laughed, he purposely got out as fast as he could because he knew Double D was going to open the door for him. Edd smirked and leaned in closer to him. Kevin felt his heart beat going wild again.
Edd chuckled, "I figured I would take you out on a legitimate date...considering we are dating now." Kevin's face erupted in red, he knew he was never going to get used to Double D's snarky behavior. Double D chuckled and began his stride towards the door. Kevin followed him and found something a little off with him. Double D was waiting next to the door, Kevin looked at him curiously. Edd only laughed, "You loved opening my car door, I imagine you love opening every other." Edd motioned to the door next to him while smirking and Kevin stared at him. Edd was toying him. Kevin frowned, surly he could do the same. Kevin reached for the door and quickly entered, quickly closing it behind him. Kevin pivoted himself so that he could hold the door closed. He knew Double D was stronger than him, he tried to position himself strategically so that it would be more difficult for Edd to open the door.
Edd watched him carefully, he looked relaxed yet deep in thought. After a minute or so he smiled and stood up straight. Kevin relaxed the tinniest bit and watched him closely. Double D quickly grabbed the door and it sprang open. Kevin grimaced, if he had stayed in his position Double D wouldn't have been able to open the door. Double D smoothly walked in and watched Kevin closely. Kevin drowned, the only time he won against Edd was when he was on his bike. And now that Edd fell in love with his bike, he had no upper hand. He heard Edd chuckle as he felt him peck him on the lips.
Kevin tried not to blush, which was impossible. Edd laughed and they walked to the counter and an older women greeted them. She waved them over to a booth on the opposite side of the restaurant. The place was busier than it was the other night. Kevin looked around for people he might know when he felt his phone buzz. Double D was looking at the menu so he quickly checked it. He blinked, it was from Nat: OMG LOOK TO YOUR LEFT AND BACK A LITTLE.
Kevin quickly placed his phone in his pocket. His eyes were wide as he carefully looked in the direction he was supposed to look. He saw Nat sitting with a girl, she smiled and they both waved at him. Kevin quickly turned away and looked back up at Edd who was watching him curiously. Kevin blushed and picked up his menu, scanning over every item before picking the same item he had last time. The waitress came and took both their orders.
Kevin squirmed in his seat as he felt his phone buzz again. Nat was right behind him and he was 100% positive his newest message was from Nazz. He received another message and squirmed again. If Edd saw Nat or knew that his friends knew they were on a date, he might want to leave. Kevin finally reached in his pocket and turned off his phone after he felt another text message vibrate. He placed it back in his pocket and looked up at Edd. He was staring at him blissfully, Kevin looked back down at his hands. So far they had been sitting there for 5 or so minutes and said nothing to each other.
He heard Double D sigh and fall against the booth, "this is just like last time, just because we are now a couple should not change the situation pumpkin~". That didn't make him feel better, Edd was gorgeous in every way possible, whereas Kevin was small and weak. Kevin looked at him closely, Edd was slender, yet he muscular. His eyes were almost shaped with crystal blue eyes. His jaw was set but nothing so sharp it made him look weird. His lips were full and pink and few dark hairs poked out from under his hat.
Kevin frowned then "Double D…"
Edd looked at him curiously and Kevin suddenly didn't want to ask anymore. He hesitated before gaining all of his courage to ask him. "We're dating now…so I can ask you anything right?"
Edd raised an eyebrow at him but nodded and smiled, "of course, you may inquire me about anything you wish." Kevin swallowed, even though he had Edd's permission, he was still nervous to ask.
"…W-why do you wear the sock hat all the time?" Kevin regretted it instantly. He saw Edd instantly change, he looked much more wary and anxious. Edd wasn't looking at him, he was staring to his left with his eyes wide open.
Kevin brought his arms up, "NO! No, Edd you don't have to answer, I just was only curious!" Kevin didn't see anything different change about Double D. Kevin's heart ached as he brought his hands to his face quickly. He was so stupid to ask Edd such a personal question. He knew Edd had an attachment to it, he just didn't know it was that bad. Kevin gently placed his head on the table and banged it softly.
He heard a soft chuckle and looked up to see Double D containing his laughter. Kevin relaxed and left his head on the table. At least he made him smile. Kevin raised his head and looked back up at Edd who was still holding in his laughter. Kevin couldn't help laugh with him, he loved seeing him so relaxed and happy.
Edd relaxed and continued to smile. Kevin liked seeing him happy, though it was rare. Edd chuckled again, "Do your lips need assistance?"
Kevin blushed and covered his face with his cap again. Edd laughed and he felt it disappear from his grasp. Kevin looked up to see Double D inches from his face. He was smirking, "seem familiar?" Kevin frowned, it was just like the first time they came here and Kevin covered his face with his cap when Edd told him he was 'too cute to reject'. Kevin flushed remembering the even clearly in his mind. Edd chuckled and pulled back.
Kevin frowned as their food arrived. Edd looked a bit downcast as their waitress, so far their first date as a couple wasn't going to well. Kevin grimaced and ate his food slowly. Kevin searched his mind trying to find anything for them to talk about. Kevin placed his hat back on his head and cleared his throat.
"Edd, why did you choose to skip a grade?" Kevin relaxed, this was a good question, and it didn't make Edd uncomfortable. Maybe they could actually have a normal date like last time.
Double D furrowed his eyebrows a little before leaning his head back, "Well, technically I was given the opportunity to skip ahead a few years." Kevin put with fork down and looked at Edd. He was confused, he knew Double D was smart and that one year seemed, somewhat normal, but…a few years? Edd looked down at him and smiled, "Do you remember the test given to you in sixth grade?" Kevin nodded. About half way through your sixth year of school, you are given an academic test to see if you were average, need to be held back, or (in rare cases like Edd's) be moved forward. "Naturally I aced it and the next day I was requested to show into the principal's office. A school official asked me many questions before they became a challenge for me. Afterwards, I was told about being moved forward in my academic career. They explained how my scores showed on the high school level." Edd frowned, "I believe I was told four years ahead." Kevin snapped back to reality, he was picturing Edd back four years ago, being told he was smart enough to skip ahead. Kevin was utterly stupefied. Kevin never thought Double D was ahead four years.
"But you're only a year ahead…?"
Edd smiled and relaxed even more, "Yes, I expressed my own opinion, about how I was uninterested in moving ahead. They tried to persuade me to adjust my situation, really think about it." Double D paused, "I requested a year to think on it, and they granted me to do so."
Kevin waited a bit longer, he was still a bit confused. He was sure he grasped the situation, but he wanted to hear Double D talk more. "I did make a decision a year later. I questioned if I was able to move ahead one year and they agreed to that."
"Ah" Kevin chuckled at himself, if didn't realize Edd was so far ahead of him. Kevin felt more nervous now. Knowing this about Edd, Kevin felt intimidated, but he didn't want Double D to know that. He was sure he didn't want people knowing that about him.
Kevin looked back up at him, "can I ask why?" Edd stiffened by a touch before relaxing. He pursed his lips before speaking, "well, I did not pertain to the idea of being pushed ahead of others. I also wanted to enjoy my youth while I have it." Kevin thought about that, though he was a bit surprised that's what his reason was, however he let it die. Double D looked a bit uncomfortable.
"I'm sorry for asking," Kevin didn't look up at him. Edd chuckled and took his hat once again. Kevin pouted and reached out for it, but Edd only pulled it away.
"My turn to ask the questions. Why are you so attached to your hat?" Kevin blinked, and frowned reaching for his hat again. Double D only leaned closer while pulling his hate farther away.
"Ok, how come you get my hat yet I don't get yours?" Kevin pouted and stood reaching for his hat one more time. He felt Double D grab his wrist and pull him closer to his face. Kevin blushed, he was so close to Edd then. Kevin wanted to kiss him then, but he heard Edd sigh and place his hat back on his head. Kevin slowly sank back into his seat while watching Double D.
"Have you finished?" Kevin looked at his plate which he had eaten three quarters of. Kevin nodded and Double D reached for a waitress. She appeared and Double D asked for the check. She nodded and took their plates with her. Not a moment later she returned and they headed to the counter. Kevin couldn't help but feel sad. Their first official date had been pretty lame.
Kevin stood next to Double D who paid the women at the counter. Kevin was staring out the window, wishing he could redo the whole night. Kevin smiled then, thinking about the roof. He shook his head, no he wanted to keep that memory exactly how it was.
He felt an arm pull him in around his shoulder. Caught off guard, Kevin looked up at Double D how was smiling. He began walking to the door when he stopped. Kevin turned around and his heart dropped. One of the football jocks was standing there, a girl attached to his hip. His football jersey seemed a bit too big for the boy. Kevin looked at her, she looked familiar but he couldn't tell. He looked up at Double D. Edd looked more annoyed then scared, it felt as if his face was saying, you are bothering me.
"Edd, uh…" Double D sighed and pulled Kevin closer. Kevin stopped, for a minute it felt as if Double D was pushing Kevin towards the door.
"Look, I'm not like your swim buddies." The boy was more built then Edd, but shorter as well. His voice was also deeper, and the girl on his hip was smiling at Kevin. Kevin couldn't help look confused. He looked at Double D who had raised an eyebrow.
The girl interjected, "Edd, me and Billy were talking." Ah, his name was Billy, Kevin nodded silently laughing to himself. She continued, "You're the best swimmer at our school and you really help keep the school pride a float. Most of the football guys are pretty jealous about that." She nudged Billy's side, "Y-yeah, I mean. Usually, the football guys bring honour and glory to the school. But that's not the case since you joined the swim team last year."
Kevin felt Edd push him back a little more. Kevin was almost completely behind him now. "You do not feel threatened?" Edd's voice was low and Kevin looked up at him. Kevin hardly ever heard him sound like that, it didn't sound like Double D at all.
"Eddward, we're on your side." Kevin heard the girl speak, she sounded concerned and gentle. Kevin poked around and he felt Double D's arm still around his shoulder. He felt stiff and cut.
"Why?" Kevin looked at Billy and the girl. Billy looked more annoyed then the girl.
She stepped forward, "Edd, we want you on our team, in our school. We like you." Kevin swallowed, he knew Double D wasn't going to like that. Edd liked his distance from people, and not many talked to him like that. Kevin stepped in front of Edd this time, he felt a bit shaky but otherwise he was together.
He smiled at them, "Thanks! That actually means a lot to us!" The girl smiled at him and he saw Billy relax.
She held a hand out, "I'm Charlie, and I'm a second year with Edd. So is Billy," She nodded towards him and he sort of laughed. Kevin felt Edd's arm relax and he looked back up at him. He was till frowning but he looked much more relaxed, confused even. Kevin looked back and saw Nat staring at them. Kevin nodded at him to know everything was ok, thought Nat never looked away.
Kevin looked back at the two, "We'll, we've got to get going, but thanks for letting us know you're on our side." Kevin smiled again at them and felt Double D pull him out. He didn't say anything to them, he just left. Kevin frowned as he held each door open for him. Edd was quiet for a long while. He looked relaxed with a mixture of annoyance and confusion.
About half way Kevin sighed and gave in, "Edd, are you ok?" He hesitated, "I'm a bit confused is all." His eyebrows furrowed and he looked over at Kevin. "Why did you do that?"
Kevin's heart stopped again, Edd sounded upset, almost mad at him. Kevin looked down away from him, "I guess I could ask you the same thing."
"I asked you first." Edd almost cut him off. Kevin looked back him, he looked more anxious now. "Double D, do never accept help from anyone?" Kevin felt his heart pounding against his chest. He was asking another personal question about Edd which, as he very well knew, was a bad idea.
"Only from you." His face erupted in red as he heard Double D talk. Kevin looked away and gently poked at his face, go away red! Kevin didn't look back at him, "Can I ask why it's just me?"
There was a pause, "I trust you."
Kevin swung around and looked at him. Edd had just pulled into the school parking lot and parked his car next to Kevin's bike. It was completely dark outside now. Edd turned off his car and leaned against his seat, pulling his hat over his face. He sighed heavily and relaxed.
"You don't trust anyone else? Even Marie?" Kevin had his seat belt off as he looked at Edd, who didn't move. "No."
Kevin frowned, "why?" He leaned closer to Double D. He raised his hat over his eyes and looked at Kevin. Kevin blushed and leaned back into his seat, "I'm sorry, I just want to get to know you…" Kevin looked away from him and he heard Double D sigh again.
"One of these days pumpkin~" Kevin looked up to see Double D only inches from his face. Kevin's heart accelerated then. The air changed and it felt like that moment, right before a kiss. Kevin could tell the atmosphere changed as he swallowed. Edd smirked, "one of these day's I'll answer any questions you have. M'kay pumpkin~?" Kevin nodded robotically. Edd grinned and pulled back, Kevin acted on his own then. He caught Edd's shirt and he stopped moving, Double D narrowed his eyes to look at Kevin and he brought his eyes to Edd. They just stared at each other for a while, trying to read each other's thoughts. Kevin felt his heart push against is chest like it was trying to escape. Kevin watched Edd as he turned to him slowly, his expression curious. Each time he got closer Kevin pulled away a fraction of Edd's movements until Edd was halfway on Kevin's seat.
Every second was torture for Kevin, he just wanted it to happen but Edd wasn't moving. Kevin frowned before giving in. He heard Edd sigh before lifting his hand and pulling Kevin closer to him. Double D's lips were ever so soft and gentle, Kevin felt himself relax. He felt Edd push against him and Kevin found himself resting against his passenger seat. He had his eyes closed as they kissed and felt Edd's hand disappear. Edd was moving over to his seat. His heart started to accelerate like mad when he realized Double D's position.
Kevin opened his eyes as Double D pulled away and push his car seat back so that Kevin was laying down horizontally. Double D had his knees on the side of Kevin's hips, he had his elbow next his face and his hand was resting on Kevin's chest. Double D had the most teasing expression on and Kevin stared in horror. Kevin wanted to push him away and pull him closer at the same time. His heart pounded against his chest and he closed his eyes, trembling.
Edd's hand travelled down his chest and followed all the way down to Kevin's abdomen. Kevin stiffened and he clenched his teeth. Kevin's eyes sprang open as he hear Double D laughing. He hand one hand clutching his stomach while he held himself up with his other. Kevin watched him while he laughed for a good minute or so. Double D chuckled softly then, and kissed Kevin swiftly on his lips, making his head spin.
He pulled back again, "did you really consider me the sort to do something so disrespectful, so premature in a relationship?" Kevin's widened and he blushed. He brought his hat back over his face and it quickly disappeared. Double D placed it behind his back and pressed forward again so that Kevin was forced against his seat.
"I have come to the conclusion, whenever you conceal your enticing expression, I will seize your hat and kiss you. I don't care where we are." Double D grinned at him again and blushed. He wanted to cover his face but Edd had his hat. Kevin reached for it but Double D only pulled away.
He 'tsked' at him, "You get your heart back when I get my kiss." Kevin frowned at him, he was playing hard ball. Kevin felt his anger shoot up, Double D was always going to toy with him even know that they were dating. Kevin clenched his teeth, fine.
Kevin sprang forward and slapped his lips against Edd's. He felt him fall back and Kevin push forward. Double D pressed against his dash board and Kevin caught himself with his hands. He tried not to shake or show any of his nerves. He want to be in control for once, show Double D that teasing him wasn't going to work on him forever. Kevin pressed his body against Double D's and forced his lips open. He thought he was going to explode, he usually felt himself let go when he got upset, but now that they were in this situation, he felt scared and confused while being empowered at the same time.
Kevin brought his hands to Edd's face, forcing him closer as he invaded his mouth. It felt different from the roof somehow. This time, it was more erotic then passionate, more of a need and desire. Double D's mouth was hot and wet. Kevin felt the air in his lungs disappearing and his heart accelerating. He was breathing heavy until he was afraid he would pass out. He pulled away and quickly grabbed his hat from Edd.
Kevin looked at Edd and his expression dropped. His face was pink, and his expression was completely and utterly astonished, almost disbelief at what Kevin did. Seeing Double D caught off guard like this, was more than rare. It never happened and Kevin didn't think it would happen again. Kevin suddenly became weary, what if Double D got mad at him or annoyed? Suddenly scared Kevin held up his hands.
"O-Oh my God Edd I'm sorry, I just-" Double D blinked and sat up, looking at Kevin, still a bit stunned. His eyebrows then knit together and he stared down at Kevin. Kevin clenched, shit, now he was going to get it.
Edd leaned forward a bit, frowning, "you ever do that in public, and I will not hesitate to make you regret it." Double D's expression softened and he grinned, "However, you have my permission to do that in private". Kevin blushed again looked away, remembering not to grab his hat. Double D chuckled again and moved back into his seat. Kevin shifted his hat so that it fit better before opening his door. Kevin waited for a moment before looking back at Edd.
"Double D I…" Kevin pursed his lips before continuing, "I wouldn't have changed anything about today. It was perfect." Edd looked at him curiously before smiling and nodding his head. "I must concur pumpkin~" Kevin blushed once more before smiling and closing Edd's door. Kevin walked to his bike and unchained it. He slipped on his helmet and fastened the extra one securely before kick starting it. He assumed Edd had already left but when he back up, Double D was still waiting for him. Kevin frowned but let him be as he pushed forward.
Kevin racked his brain of everything that happened today. Double D picking him up at his house, then stalking him at school. Dr. Jamie's office, When I kiss him, I don't-I can't let go. I'm worried if I do…I'll stop breathing. Kevin felt his heart twist, that's truly what Double D felt about him. And Kevin knew that he felt the same. Kevin thought about the roof, and Edd and the sunset. He thought about the kiss and how everything was perfect and everything was right. Kevin grinned as he thought about their date that had not turned out the best, but he didn't care. He spent it with Edd and that's all that mattered. All that Kevin really cared about anymore was Edd. He blushed thinking about their scene in the car. He remembered Edd's expression of mischievous and then the one right after, of disbelief. Both so contradictory, but somehow fit him perfectly.
Kevin pulled into his driveway and pulled off his helmet and turned off his bike. Without getting off, he turned and watched Edd stepping out of his car. He had his hands in his jacket pockets and he was leaning back, looking non-chalant. Kevin couldn't decipher an expression, but he saw Double D wave. Kevin smiled and waved back as Edd entered his house. Kevin stopped then, he saw Edd stop in the doorway, and there was light in the doorway. Kevin was suddenly concerned, Double D's home was ALWAYS dark, he liked to keep the lights off. He assumed his parent's had visited. Though Kevin wanted to make sure Double D was alright, he knew he could handle his own battles and it was just his parents. He was sure of it. Kevin chained his bike up and walked inside his house while looking back at Edd, who had closed his door behind him.
*** (OMG IM SORRY I JUST IMAGINED EDD COCKING HIS HEAD TO THE SIDE AND HE HAD CAT EARS AND I FAN-GIRLED OVER MY OWN STORY 3. PLUS I IMAGINED EDD AS ANDY BIERSACK WITHOUT MAKEUP, GOD!)
Edd's POV
Edd held Kevin to him for a long while. He didn't want to let him go, he wanted to have him in his arms forever. However, that wasn't how life worked, and he had plans. He sighed and began to stand, "we have to go?"
He looked down at Kevin who almost looked heartbroken that he had left. Edd smiled and picked him up, Kevin squealed and. Edd laughed, "I have encompassed more plans for you pumpkin~" He saw Kevin blush and smile up at him, with his green eyes illuminating. Double D slightly blushed as Kevin hugged him around his lower back, his head resting against his Edd's shoulder as he held him in his arms. He frowned and looked away while his cheeks turned a bit pink, you keep making me blush, that's not ok. Kevin shifted and brought himself against Edd's back. Double D smiled and walked over to the edge, gently climbing down. He felt himself going a bit fast, so he tried his best to be as careful as possible. Double D reached the bottom and let Kevin glide off of him as he stared at his bike. He wanted to ride it one more time if he could, but he needed to drive Kevin so it would be a surprise. He frowned, he did not like this dilemma.
He heard Kevin laugh, "You want to take my bike again, don't you?" Edd looked down at Kevin and frowned, "yes, except you don't know where to go." He saw Kevin frown, he had clearly not taken that into account.
"It's ok pumpkin, there will be other times we can utilize your motorcycle." Edd smirked and began to walk to his car. He knew for a fact Kevin would drive him around again, also considering how much Double D had fallen in love with his bike. He heard Kevin's feet hit the ground as he walked beside him. Double D rounded the corner and reached for his keys. He noticed Kevin reaching for his door, and quickly grabbed it for him. Kevin looked up at him as he grinned. He blushed as he took his seat frowning. Edd chuckled as he closed his door and headed for his own side.
Edd started his car and began to pull out of the parking lot. He was headed to where they originally had their first date, Double D just wanted to make an official one. They didn't talk for the whole ride, which was ok with him, so long as Kevin was happy. Edd pulled into the familiar lot and looked at Kevin. He looked a bit confused, Edd suddenly became wary, "would you prefer somewhere else?" Kevin shook his head no and Double D smiled, "I presumed you would be hungry, you have not eaten in nearly 6 hours."
Kevin looked away, Edd was used to not eating for hours due to his athletic body. But he was almost 100% positive Kevin was starving, and his suspicions only heightened because he was looking away. Double D got out of his side and quickly made his way next to Kevin. Edd frowned, and Kevin laughed, Edd Kevin had opened the door before him and let himself out. That's not how dates went, he was supposed to open the door for him. Edd smirked and leaned in closer to him, showing Kevin he still had the upper hand. If Kevin wanted to play hard ball, Double D was more than willing to help him.
Edd chuckled, "I figured I would take you out on a legitimate date...considering we are dating now." Kevin's face erupted in red, and Double D chuckled and began his stride towards the door. He knew he would never get tired of seeing Kevin's red face. Double D placed himself next to the door and waited for Kevin. He knew he would either open the door or realize he wasn't and look at him. Double D smiled as Kevin walked up to the door and looked at him curiously. Edd laughed, "You loved opening my car door, I imagine you love opening every other." Edd motioned to the door next to him while smirking and Kevin stared at him. Edd was toying with him, he loved doing it. Kevin frowned and quickly pulled the door open and swung through pulling it with him. Edd watched him as he placed his feet one the wall and on the door, keeping him out. But Double D laughed at him, he could have easily just pulled it open, even with Kevin placed like he was. He stopped laughing then, he wanted to continue to toy with him, so tried to look as if he was figuring out how to get around Kevin.
Edd stayed like that for a while, he had already thought of plan, after a minute or so, he would relax, and wait for Kevin to be caught off guard, then he would open the door, and make Kevin think he had moved differently. So, after a minute, Edd smiled and stood up straight while relaxed, waiting for Kevin. As soon as he did relax, Edd quickly grabbed the door and it sprang open. Kevin grimaced and Double D chuckled. Kevin didn't make a big deal out of it, which made Edd smile. He liked Kevin and his personality. Double D smoothly walked in and watched Kevin closely. Kevin look beat and upset, and Double D felt a twinge of guilt. Seeing Kevin upset made him feel bad, but at the same time, he chuckled and pecked him on the lips. He knew making him blush meant Kevin liked it.
Kevin turned and tried to keep his blush hidden, but Edd only laughed. They walked to the counter and an older women greeted them. She waved them over to a booth on the opposite side of the restaurant. The place was busier than it was the other night. Edd took his seat and watch Kevin looked around the place. Edd frowned, Kevin looked like he was searching for something or someone. Double D picked up his menu and skimmed over the items. He already knew what he was getting, he was mostly just watching Kevin. He saw Kevin look up from his lap and slowly turn around the booth, Edd followed his gaze. Double D sighed and pulled the menu higher, covering his face. His friend Nat was here. Did Kevin ask him to be here? No, Kevin would have wanted to be alone with him just like Edd wanted to be alone with Kevin. Perhaps it was coincidence. Double D looked up frown his menu to see a Kevin squirming in his seat, unfocused and uncomfortable.
Double D looked back at Nat, he was sitting with a girl in Kevin's year. He didn't know her name, but she was smart, she was in one of Edd's classes. Nat was looking away, on his phone. He assumed he was texting Nazz or even Kevin. Double D switched to look at Kevin who looked back up at him. Edd raised his eyebrow at him and Kevin blushed as he picked up his menu. Double D looked back at his menu before placing it down, and their waitress appeared. She took both their orders and left quickly.
Kevin squirmed in his seat as Edd heard a small vibration resonating from his side of the both. Double D raised an eyebrow at him, but Kevin wasn't looking at him. He was staring at the table nervously as another vibration sounded through the booth. Double D chanced another glance at Nat who quickly looked away. Edd looked away non chalant, he was texting Kevin. Double D looked at Kevin as he placed his pocket and sighed in relief, perhaps he turned it off or replied to Nat? Kevin looked back at Edd who realized he was smiling at him. Kevin looked back down, and Edd pulled himself back up. There date was not turning out very successful.
Double D sighed and fell against the booth, "this is just like last time, just because we are now a couple should not change the situation pumpkin~". Edd was looking away from him, he figured Kevin was pretty nervous. Not sure why but he let him have some space. Double D couldn't help think about how small he was. Ever since he knew him he was small, he always had to look down to see him, even when they were young. Double D smiled, he liked that Kevin was smaller than him. If Kevin was taller or bigger than him he was afraid that it would be uncomfortable.
Kevin frowned then, "Double D…"
Edd looked at him curiously, Kevin seemed much more flustered now. Like he wanted to say something, and at the same time not say it at all. Double D became serious then, Kevin looked a bit scared. Kevin paused before speaking, "We're dating now…so I can ask you anything right?"
Edd raised an eyebrow at him, that's what couples did, right? He nodded and smiled, "of course, you may inquire me about anything you wish." Kevin swallowed, and Edd still seemed a bit dismayed. Kevin looked extremely nervous.
"…W-why do you wear the sock hat all the time?" Double D tensed up immediately, he knew Kevin would ask eventually but never so soon! He didn't want to lie to Kevin about why he wore his hat all the time, but he didn't want to tell him the truth. Double D felt his heart race, he wasn't looking at Kevin, he was looking away trying to think of something to say to him.
Double D saw Kevin bring his arms in front of him and wave them as if to say, 'no'. "NO! No, Edd you don't have to answer, I just was only curious!" Though Double D did feel better about not having to answer the question, but he still felt nervous and on edge. Double D looked back at Kevin, he had brought his hands to his face, then rested against the table. Double D watched him curiously, he waited there for a few seconds before he started banging it softly against the table. Edd couldn't help the laughter building in his stomach. He quickly had one hand over his mouth and his other arm over his stomach. Kevin could be so cute.
Kevin looked up to see him trying to contain his laughter. He heard a soft chuckle and looked up to see Double D containing his laughter. Edd saw Kevin relax before bringing his head up to meet Double D's. He was still trying to get himself under control, he always laughed hardest with Kevin. Kevin began laughing with him, and Edd smiled. Seeing Kevin so relaxed and carefree was something that always made Edd so happy.
They both calmed down and Edd chuckled, "Do your lips need assistance?"
Kevin blushed and covered his face with his cap again. Edd laughed and grabbed at his hat. Kevin looked up at him, just as he did last time he grabbed his hat. Double D was only inches from his face and was smirking. He wasn't going to kiss him unless Kevin made the first move. "Seem familiar?" Kevin frowned, and Edd knew he remembered. Kevin flushed and he chuckled as he relaxed against the booth.
It was just like the first time they came here and Kevin covered his face with his cap when Edd told him he was 'too cute to reject'. Kevin flushed and Edd chuckled pulling back, he loved teasing Kevin. Kevin always made him smile.
They seemed to be doing better and Double D smiled. He opened his mouth to speak again when their waitress arrived with their food and Edd immediately frowned. I felt awkward again, he didn't want their first official date to be so sour. Double D raked his brain for a new topic to start but he was coming up blank. He couldn't help but think Kevin looked just as disappointed as him. He watched as Kevin placed his hat back on his head and cleared his throat.
"Edd, why did you choose to skip a grade?" Though Double D was caught a bit off guard by his expression, he was happy to see Kevin relaxed, and it wasn't a question about his hat either so Edd felt relaxed as well.
Double D furrowed his eyebrows a little before leaning his head back. In all honesty, he didn't want to skip a grade, he had wanted to stay in the grade given to him, but there were too many variables in his life that stopped that from happening. "Well, technically I was given the opportunity to skip ahead a few years." Double D saw Kevin's confusion radiate over his face and Edd smiled at him. He figured Kevin didn't realize just how far ahead he really was academically. "Do you remember the test given to you in sixth grade?" Kevin nodded. About half way through your sixth year of school, you are given an academic test to see if you were average, need to be held back, or be moved forward. In Double D's case, he was the unusual student that could be sent forward a few years. The test is compiled of about 10 questions from each subject from each grade, starting at 6th grade and going to 10th grade. The school gives each student the same amount of time which is about three hours. Edd only took one hour to complete it. "Naturally I aced it and the next day I was requested to show into the principal's office. A school official asked me many questions before they became a challenge for me. Afterwards, I was told about being moved forward in my academic career. They explained how my scores showed on the high school level." Edd frowned, "I believe I was told four years ahead." Double D kept his expression, he remembered that day clearly. The principal screaming in glee about his student being so far ahead. They made him bring home a letter to his parents, and at that time he had left it on the table. He didn't think they would see it, but the next day he found the letter opened and moved to the kitchen counter. When he arrived at the school the next day, he was told by the principal his parents had contacted him, saying they wanted Edd moved ahead as far as he could go.
Kevin piped up, "But you're only a year ahead…?"
Edd smiled and relaxed even more, "Yes, I expressed my own opinion, about how I was uninterested in moving ahead. They tried to persuade me to adjust my situation, really think about it." Double D paused, "I requested a year to think on it, and they granted me to do so." He still kept his parents out of the conversation. When Double D told them he didn't want to move ahead his parents had really chewed him out, but he kept his ground, he didn't want to move ahead, however, to make them 'happy' he requested a year to think about it. Though he didn't really think about it, he just told them what they wanted to hear.
After a while of a quiet and still confused Kevin, Double D continued, "I did make a decision a year later. I questioned if I was able to move ahead one year and they agreed to that."
"Ah" Kevin chuckled at himself, but it felt a bit stiffened, like he had forced it out. Double D watched him a long while, trying to read Kevin. He looked more nervous and Edd suddenly felt more self-conscious. He said nothing and choose to watch Kevin think until he finally found his voice.
Kevin looked back up at him, "can I ask why?" Edd stiffened by a touch before relaxing. He pursed his lips, he stayed because he liked picking on Kevin. To Edd, it was the only thing that he really looked forward to, but he didn't want Kevin to know that. It was embarrassing to him and he didn't know how Kevin would react to it. "Well, I did not pertain to the idea of being pushed ahead of others. I also wanted to enjoy my youth while I have it." Kevin stayed quite for a while, Edd was sure he could tell he was holding something back. Double D didn't like bending the truth to Kevin, he just felt nervous, and he didn't feel nervous often.
"I'm sorry for asking," Kevin looked away, a blush just barely noticeable on his cheeks. Edd chuckled and took his hat once again. Kevin pouted and reached out for it, but Edd only pulled it away.
"My turn to ask the questions. Why are you so attached to your hat?" Kevin blinked, and frowned reaching for his hat again. Double D only leaned closer while pulling his hate farther away.
"Ok, how come you get my hat yet I don't get yours?" Kevin pouted and stood reaching for his hat one more time. Double D smirked wickedly, and grabbed his wrist, pulling him closer to his face. Kevin blushed, he was so close to Edd then. Double D could see Kevin's expression sweep over with desire. It was extremely obvious what Kevin wanted but Edd only sighed. Though he had just as much desire to kiss him, he didn't want to do it so public, plus he wanted Kevin to act on his own. Placing his hat back on his head, Kevin slowly sank back into his seat while watching Double D.
"Have you finished?" Double D pointed to Kevin's plate which was a quarter full. Kevin nodded and Double D reached for a waitress. She appeared and Double D asked for the check. She nodded and took their plates with her. Not a moment later she returned and they headed to the counter. Double D thought he noticed Kevin's down casted expression and Edd grimaced as well. Their first true date had been pretty lame.
Kevin stood next to Double D who paid the women at the counter. Though he should have been paying attention to the cashier women, he kept finding his eyes wander over to Kevin. He was staring out the window, and after a while he smiled then quickly shook his head, as if to get rid of his thoughts.
Double D couldn't help but smile as he pulled Kevin closer to him, his arm on Kevin's shoulder. Kevin looked up at Double D how was smiling and they began walking to the door when Double D felt a tap on his shoulder. He stopped as he felt his expression change immediately as he turned and looked behind him, his arm still around Kevin's shoulder. Double D found himself face to face with a burly looking guy and a skinny and attractive girl. Double D looked them over before raising an eye brow at them. The boy had a football jacket on from Edd's school, and Double D felt more annoyed now. He couldn't help his expression give away his thoughts, he had already had a bad date with Kevin, he didn't need another variable to add to the mixture.
The burly guy spoke softly, "Edd, uh…" Double D sighed and pulled Kevin closer, he gently pressed Kevin behind him, and he was closer to the exit now.
"Look, I'm not like your swim buddies." Double D raised an eye brow at them, what was his game? First off, he didn't have anymore 'swim buddies' and for this guy to bring up the subject so non-chalant irritated Edd. Double D looked over at the girl he was holding close to him. She did look familiar to him, he only assumed she attended the same school. Edd ignored the girl and focused back to the boy. He was much bigger than him weight wise, but Edd was taller than him. Double D thought deeply then, he wouldn't be able to take him in a fist fight, but if he got Kevin out safely, that was the only important thing. Double D had his arm securely around Kevin so that if the jock tried anything, Kevin would be easily get pushed out of the way
The girl interjected, "Edd, me and Billy were talking." She gestured to the boy next to her and continued, "You're the best swimmer at our school and you really help keep the school pride a float. Most of the football guys are pretty jealous about that." Double D looked over at the boy named Billy who was looking away. He didn't look very happy about her words. She nudged him rather roughly before he came back to reality, "Y-yeah, I mean. Usually, the football guys bring honour and glory to the school. But that's not the case since you joined the swim team last year."
Double D felt his anger rising as he pressed Kevin back farther. He was sure Kevin was completely behind him now. Billy's tone gave off the impression that he was gritting his teeth as he said those words, but his expression looked sincere and truthful. It really confused Double D and he wasn't quite sure how to react. "You do not feel threatened?" Edd couldn't help his voice sound so low and menacing. He was only concerned about Kevin's safety.
The girl stepped forward a fraction, "Eddward, we're on your side." She sounded concerned and gentle but that only made Edd stiffen. Edd felt Kevin peek from behind him and it made his heart beat quicken.
"Why?" Double D didn't trust anyone, and now that these two kids he never met were telling him they were 'on his side' irritated him. Edd kept his eyes focused on Billy who began to look more and more annoyed.
She stepped forward again, "Edd, we want you on our team, in our school. We like you." Double D felt a growl begin in his throat, he had been holding back for a while and he didn't think he would last much longer. He opened his mouth to speak when he felt Kevin push his way forward. Edd's heart about exploded as he tried to pull Kevin back but he had already began to speak.
"Thanks! That actually means a lot to us!" The girl smiled at Kevin and he saw Billy instantly relax. Double D looked down at Kevin with a puzzled expression, Kevin was smiling at them.
She held a hand out to him, "I'm Charlie, and I'm a second year with Edd. So is Billy," She nodded towards him and he sort of laughed. Double D relaxed his arm on Kevin's shoulder but his expression did not change. He refused to look away, he hardly ever let his guard down. He only relaxed to let Kevin know he was ok. He doubted Kevin would really buy his charade, but he tried his best to show him he was trying.
Kevin spoke again, "We'll, we've got to get going, but thanks for letting us know you're on our side." Double D gave no departing words as he pulled Kevin to the door, anxiously leaving the two peers at the counter. Double D held open each door for Kevin as he entered his car. Though he felt more relaxed, he was still confused and upset. Edd started his car and began the journey back to the school.
About half way, he heard Kevin sigh, "Edd, are you ok?" Edd waited, trying to find the right words, "I'm a bit confused is all." His eyebrows furrowed and he looked over at Kevin. "Why did you do that?" Though the two students had had him frazzled up, it was Kevin's actions that really had him confused. Though there were times Kevin would stand up for himself and others, it was usually more private, not to mention Edd had ALWAYS stood up for himself, he had never had someone stand in front of him before. It was a rather peculiar feeling to him and he wasn't entirely sure how to handle it.
He saw Kevin look away for a moment. Double D suddenly felt guilty, what if he made Kevin feel bad? "I guess I could ask you the same thing."
"I asked you first." Edd almost cut him off, he knew what Kevin was getting at and he wasn't ready for that. Double D began to feel nervous and he gripped the steering wheel, trying to calm down. Kevin looked up at him, "Double D, do never accept help from anyone?" Edd paused, he couldn't hide his answer with another question like he had just done. He pursed his lips before answering.
"Only from you." Edd kept his face forward, as much as he wanted to look at Kevin he figured it was better to let him have some space. Kevin moved around before speaking again, "Can I ask why it's just me?"
Edd paused, "I trust you." Though Edd did trust Kevin, he was the only person Edd really did trust, and it was pretty big thing for Double D to trust ANYONE. He felt his heart beat racing and he tried to keeps his eyes averted from Kevin.
Edd silently sighed in relief as he pulled into the school parking lot and brought the car next to Kevin's bike. It was now much darker and Double D could feel himself getting more anxious. He turned off his car and laid against his seat pulling his hat over his face. He basically ruined his date with Kevin and was sure Kevin wanted to leave now more than ever. Edd sighed heavily before finally relaxing his muscles, he wanted to make the date up to Kevin and apologize for his behavior. He grimaced, he needed to get his anger under control, he felt pathetic.
"You don't trust anyone else? Even Marie?" Double D heard Kevin's seat belt click off, he felt a shift in the car and assumed Kevin had shifted his weight to look at Edd. "No." Edd opened his eyes and stared at the dark, that's how it had always been, he never trusted anyone with his feelings, his situations, anything really. It was with Kevin that he felt more secure with himself and more…relaxed. He smiled.
Kevin paused, "why?" He felt Kevin shift again and Edd raised his hat off his face right above his eyes and looked at Kevin in the eyes. Kevin was extremely close as he blushed. Realizing the distance, he shifted back into his seat, "I'm sorry, I just want to get to know you…" Kevin was looking away from him, he looked much more uncomfortable and anxious than Double D. He looked so cute when he was flustered. He smiled as he sighed and leaned towards him.
"One of these days pumpkin~" Kevin looked up to see him inches from his face. Double D could tell the air changed then, but he kept to his word. He was going to kiss Kevin until he was the one to make the first move, though Edd was sure tonight Kevin wouldn't do it. His face was blushing as Edd grinned up at him, "one of these day's I'll answer any questions you have. M'kay pumpkin~?" Kevin nodded robotically. Edd grinned and pulled back, as Kevin leaned forward and grabbed his shirt. He stopped then as he eyed Kevin, are you going to kiss me or just stare at me? Double D narrowed his eyes at him, waiting for a sign. Kevin's eyes looked scared yet determined, and Edd decided to have some fun with him. Edd watched him for a long while before realizing Kevin wasn't going to move, he was also waiting for Edd to make the first. Edd laughed in his head as he shifted in his seat, he was intrigued by Kevin's behavior, and curious as to what he would do next. However Kevin didn't look like was going to do anything until Double D gave some incentive. Edd moved closer to Kevin slowly, and every time he got closer, Kevin would move back slightly. Edd could tell Kevin was extremely nervous, his face was covered in red by now. Double D kept moving until was practically sitting halfway on Kevin's seat. Edd was grinning on the inside while his expression was serious, Kevin was making him wait and Double D was about to lose it.
Edd kept getting closer to Kevin's face but refused to touch him. He could feel Kevin's breath on his lips and he was about to give in when Kevin finally moved forward and pressed his lips to Edd's. Sighing in relief Edd pulled his hand up and lifted Kevin's closer to him. Double D instantly relaxed and the world disappeared. Kevin's lips were big and soft and felt absolutely perfect to him. Double D found his heart beat racing again, however he still felt relaxed, and he smiled. He thought it was funny how kissing Kevin could make him feel so relaxed while making him so nervous at the time. Edd pressed against Kevin until he was on the seat completely. Edd's free hand reached for the lever on the side on the seat while his other hand left Kevin and rested on the seat. They both had their eyes closed while Edd had his hand on the seat lever. Edd shifted his weight again and he opened his eyes. Kevin opened his eyes as Edd smirked and pulled the lever as he pushed Kevin's seat all the way down so that he has horizontal.
Double D positioned himself perfectly, his was sitting atop of Kevin, his knees on his side as he was leaning forward and had his arm resting next to Kevin's face. His other hand gently resting on Kevin's chest. He couldn't help but smirked, he knew Kevin would be completely red and trembling by now. His expression was completely terrified and Edd smiled. Then Kevin closed his eyes, catching Edd off guard. He wasn't expecting Kevin to give in so easily, he grinned again. You're going to regret that pumpkin~. Kevin was trembling horribly which only made Edd's smile widen.
Edd let his hand travel farther down Kevin's chest until he found it right above his abdomen. He felt Kevin stiffen and clench his teeth. Edd couldn't contain himself anymore as he burst into laughter. Kevin was really going to go through with it! Edd fell against the dash board one hand clutching his stomach and the other holding him up. Edd only laughed like this when he was with Kevin, it was one of the reasons he loved spending time with him. Double D laughed for a long time while Kevin watched him curiously. Double D wiped a tear from his eye and bent forward once again, kissing Kevin on the lips softly.
He pulled back again, "did you really consider me the sort to do something so disrespectful, so premature in a relationship?" Kevin's widened and he blushed as he brought his hat back over his face. Double D smirked, that's exactly what Kevin had thought. Edd pulled it away once again and pressed himself closer to Kevin than before. Kevin was trapped under his weight and Edd grinned deliciously. Kevin's hat behind his back, far from Kevin's reach.
"I have come to the conclusion, whenever you conceal your enticing expression, I will seize your hat and kiss you. I don't care where we are." Double D grinned at him again and he saw Kevin blush. Kevin quickly reached for his hat but Edd hand it well out of reach. His smiled was only getting bigger and bigger with every second.
Edd 'tsked' at him, "You get your heart back when I get my kiss." Kevin frowned at him, and he realized that Kevin had realized what he wanted. Double D wasn't expecting the kind of kiss he usually gave to Kevin. Knowing Kevin, he was expecting the usual sensitive Kevin kiss and be done with it. Double D watched him closely as he noticed something change. It was only for a split second that Edd caught the change in Kevin. He had clenched his teeth and Double D didn't have enough time to react.
Kevin sprang forward and slapped his lips against Edd's. Double D felt himself fall back against the dashboard again as Kevin push forward. He caught himself on the dashboard as he forced himself next to Edd. Double D couldn't help but stare at Kevin, this wasn't Kevin. Kevin actually forced his lips open as invaded his mouth. Double D thought he was going to melt or explode, he couldn't tell which one was going to happen. Kevin had taken over control and Double D was too stunned to move. Double D wanted to close his eyes and savour the moment that Kevin had taken control but felt himself compelled to watch his nerd finally show power over him. Edd's heart was on a rampage as he tried to control his breathing. He thought he might pass out if this continued too long.
Edd felt Kevin's hand come up to his face and pull him close. Kevin's tongue was forcing it's way in his mouth, and Double D's mind wasn't completely clouded. He felt paralyzed as Kevin took over everything. Edd could really feel a difference now. Every time they had kissed it had been passionate and easy, but now it felt like overwhelming desire and erogenous need for him. Kevin's hands were hard and it mouth was hot and determined and Edd felt himself slipping. He had always been the one in control, but now that Kevin had taken over, he couldn't help this sexual desire in his body. Double D didn't want the moment to end, he wanted to pull Kevin close to him so much they might become one. But his mind was so clouded all he could do was sit stunned as his heart pounded against his chest, demanding its freedom. Kevin finally pulled away and Edd didn't have enough time to change his expression.
Kevin had seen his expression, and though Edd couldn't tell what it was, he could imagine how different it was from his usual one. Double D wanted to look away but the damage was done, Kevin had seen him and there was nothing he could do. He sat there watching Kevin's face, he was blushing but it wasn't as bad as when Edd was in charge. Though it made Double D happy to see the red in his cheeks, he couldn't help but stare at the ginger. Kevin's expression changed to horror and he held up his hands. Double D noticed Kevin had taken his hat back.
"O-Oh my God Edd I'm sorry, I just-" Double D blinked and sat up, looking at Kevin. He was back to his normal self now which made Edd relax. Edd wanted to pull Kevin close to him again and have the same moment again, but he knew that wouldn't happen unless Kevin made the move first again. Double D didn't smile, he just looked at Kevin, thinking about what to say.
Edd leaned forward a bit, "you ever do that in public, and I will not hesitate to make you regret it." Double D's expression softened and he grinned, "However, you have my permission to do that in private". Double D's grin widened as Kevin blushed again, he looked away and this time, he didn't reach for his hat. Edd chuckled at how fast Kevin was learning. He moved back into his seat and relaxed against the seat, remembering the kiss Kevin had forced on him. There was a long pause until Kevin opened his door and got out. He waited again before speaking again.
"Double D I…" Kevin waited again before continuing, "I wouldn't have changed anything about today. It was perfect." Edd looked over at him curiously. He had figured Kevin wished everything was different and wanted to do it over, but he smiled and nodded his head. "I must concur pumpkin~" Edd wasn't lying, though the date was pretty poor, Double D didn't want to change anything either. Kevin blushed before finally closing the door and heading over to his bike. Edd watched Kevin unchained his bike and place. Edd wanted to make sure Kevin got home safe. His rib may still hurt him even though it hadn't bothered him for a while. He waited until Kevin kick started the bike before starting his engine again. He saw Kevin look back at him before pressing forward, out of the parking lot.
Double D watched him drive smoothly across the road. He couldn't help but think about Kevin's kiss. He had always been the one in charge, and whenever that was threatened, Edd always got angry and stood up for himself. But that kiss was something different, it was the first time Double D liked not being in charge. It was a completely different for him, but he loved it. He couldn't wait for it to happen again. Actually, he wanted it to happen again, right now. He wanted to just pull in Kevin's driveway when they arrived, and kiss him like that again. Double D's heart tugged and twisted and he frowned. That was also a weird experience for him, he wasn't used to having…feelings. As much as he wanted to kiss Kevin again, he couldn't unless Kevin made the move.
Double D grimaced, he was not used to this at ALL, at he really didn't know how to handle it. He was always happy with Kevin and always wanted to be with him. He knew that, but he really didn't understand, why. He just knew he wanted ti be with Kevin, that's all he thought about and all he wanted. Double D never felt like this with his other girlfriends, it was an alien feeling, but…he loved it. He wanted it and was actually afraid to let it go. Edd furrowed his eye brows, everything felt really complicated to him, he was sure his feelings but he had no idea what to do next. He just wanted Kevin, he didn't want to screw anything up but he didn't know what to do. Double D rubbed his eyes and focused back on the road, he was trying to be simple minded about this, but I was more difficult than he thought.
They both pulled into the cul-de-sac, and Edd pulled into his driveway and turned off his car as he got out. Edd looked over and saw Kevin sitting on his bike watching him. Edd couldn't tell a specific expression on Kevin, but he couldn't help but smile and wave at him. He felt extremely relaxed looking at Kevin sitting on his bike. Kevin waved and Edd entered his house grinning from ear to ear. In that moment, Double D was sure he would do anything for him, nothing was going to keep him from Kevin.
His father stepped out from the kitchen and stared at Edd. Double D did not relax, he only stiffened even more, his eyes wide. His father's eyes narrowed in on him and Edd didn't look away. His father was the same build and size as Double D was, however that was the only similarity. His father had soft brownish blonde hair with green eyes. Double D didn't move for a long time. It was when his father cleared his throat and gestured for him to join him in the kitchen did he move. Edd entered the kitchen and leaned against the counter as his father sat at the table. It was silent for a long while.
