Football Game

Cheering on both sides of him filled his ears. Edd winced when Kevin's mother grasped his hand in a death hold as she cheered her son on from the stands. He looked out to the field and squinted. He could barely tell who was who. Which one was Kevin? He gasped when she stood, pulling him along with her. The woman was strong; he'd give her credit for that. He listened to her and the other people yell happily. Pulling away, he smiled shyly. "I'm going to go get us a cup of hot chocolate." He said calmly.

Kevin's mother nodded and dug around in her purse as her attention was still on Kevin. She handed him a few dollars, "Buy whatever you want sweetie." She said before clapping her hands. "Go Peach Cobblers!"

Edd chuckled at the woman before politely moving passed the others. Once reaching the concession stand, he sighed in relief when the warmth surrounded him, it was terribly cold outside. He didn't know how the people who went to every game dealt with it. Ordering two cups of the hot beverage, he took a small sip of it. Looking the rest of the menu over, he smiled. "Can I get some cotton candy also?" He asked and paid the woman what she asked.

Two weeks had passed since he first moved in with the Barr's. His entire lifestyle had changed since that moment had come, here he was drinking this chocolaty liquid and about to dig into this fluffy, sugary goodness. The old Edd would be worried constantly about his teeth by now. Sighing softly, he made his way back to the stands. "I bought us some cotton candy."

He instantly noticed how nervous the woman was. Looking back at the game, he noticed the score was tied. He couldn't understand why the woman got so emotional during this. He handed her the drink and got comfortable.

She took a sip and winced at the temperature, "I don't like cotton candy but thanks anyway. Give some to Kevin later, he loves it. She said nonchalantly, her eyes never leaving the score board.

Edd raised a brow before shrugging it off. He bit into a piece and smiled at her. Looking back at the field, he watched the ball being thrown. Then he felt Kevin's mother grip his wrist again, it wasn't long before the crowd began cheering again. He gave a small clap, wanting to show that he did somewhat care.

"Touchdown!" Kevin's mother shot up and grinned. "My baby got us a touchdown!" She yelled and waved her arms.

Edd chuckled and took another sip. This woman was such a strange person. It was a bit before he and the gingered woman to make it off the stands. He hugged the half eaten bag before being stopped.

"Can you go fetch Kevin? Just wait here while I go warm up the car." She asked pleadingly, her shoulders quivering from the cold. Smiling at his nod, she rushed towards the parking lot.

Edd blushed lightly as he waited, his body also shivering slightly. Lifting his scarf so it covered his mouth and nose, he stood there patiently. Minutes passed and there was still no sign of the other. Walking over to a trash bin, he threw his cup away. Glancing up into the sky, he grinned at the multiple stars. He would have started to name of constellations' if it weren't for an arm that draped around his neck and pulled him close.

"Guess who got the winning touchdown." Kevin grinned cockily as he hiked a thumb towards him, "This guy." Pulling away, he looked down at a reddened faced Edd. "Where's mom?" He then asked, looking around but not seeing her.

Edd looked down at the cotton candy, he swallowed hard. It seemed his personality wasn't the only thing that had come to his attention that has changed in the past two weeks. "S-She's waiting for us in the car…" He looked back up to see Kevin's smirk. "Don't make fun of me…" He huffed, his burning cheeks only growing. He pushed the bag against Kevin's chest, "Your mother said you love cotton candy. So take it." He then began speed walking towards the parking lot.

It didn't take long for Kevin to catch up, "You ate half of it…" Shoving his hand inside, he pulled out a piece and ate it. "Thanks Dork. Hell, thanks for coming to the game. Didn't think you'd ever come to one." He smiled and ate another piece.

Getting inside the car, Edd made sure to put his seatbelt on. Closing his eyes, he smiled softly as he listened to Kevin enthuse about the game to his mother. He then opened his eyes at a word he didn't completely enjoy.

"Am I dropping you off at your girlfriend's like usual?" His mother teased with a smirk.

"She's not my girlfriend mom… She's… Nazz…" Kevin slouched in the front seat. "I'm going to stay home, I have stuff to do." He huffed and crossed his arms.

Edd gave a small relieved sigh, that made him glad. He had nothing against the blond but whenever he thought about Kevin and her being together, alone particularly, it made him seem like he was…. Jealous. That was ridiculous though. He quickly looked away when Kevin caught him staring.

"Alright, at least Eddward won't be alone. Your dad and I are going to a fancy restaurant and probably won't be home until later tomorrow." She explained as she pulled into their driveway.

Edd got out and waited for the other two before making his way up to the guest bedroom he was in ownership of currently. Grabbing his phone, he frowned when seeing no new messages or calls. "Third day in a row…" Dropping the phone on the bed, he fell into the blankets, not bothering to strip out of what he was wearing just yet. His heart pounded and tears filled his eyes. He missed them; he missed them so much it wasn't even funny. The tears soon rolled down his cheeks and his body shook lightly as he hugged a pillow. What if something had happened to them? What if his one true phobia would come true. What if he truly became... alone?

There was a knock before the door opened. "Dork?" He called out and flipped the light on. His eyes widened when he noticed Edd sit up and look at him, tears falling from his eyes. His cheeks burning and his expression depressed. Kevin grit his teeth and stepped towards the crying nerd.
