6:30pm
After 3 Taylor swift songs they arrived at the vintage market. Sellers had their stuff displayed along their tents. Some had their items showcased and others hung up far from reach. Food vendors were mixed in along with the sellers. Since it was a weekday it wasn't crowded but there was a fair amount of people.
"C'mon." Kevin urged to get out the car and explore the market.
Edd nervous yet fascinated walked through the market judging the unique pieces. He didn't dare touch anything afraid of the unknown germs living on the items. Time flew by as the two explored all types of shops and tents selling unique trinkets and homemade products such as jams, spices and jewelry. Edd became exhausted after a while finding nothing that stood out to him. Then one thing caught his interest in an instant. A jewelry shop owned by a tiny frail Asian woman. He and Kevin stopped and looked at the little crystals hanging from dainty silver necklace chains.
"Kevin! Kevin!" Edd excitingly pulled at Kevin's shirt trying to get his attention. "That is an Amethyst geodes from Uruguay! It's so beautiful!"
"That looks pretty cool. Wow I love the colors on it." Kevin eyed the lady. "Excuse me how much is this purple crystal necklace?"
"$28 for one. Two for $35. Very cheap!" The short Asian grandma said with little interest. She didn't even look at the two and continued fanning herself effortlessly.
"That's too much. How about $20 for two?"
"No no. $35 very cheap."
"Hm. That's too much. Well too bad I only have a $20 bill. See ya." Kevin pulled Edd by the arm and started to walk away.
"WAIT WAIT. $20 for you only. Special!"
Kevin pulled out his wallet smirking. He handed the women a $20 bill in exchange for the necklaces. Kevin walked away feeling victorious. He felt a light jab to his ribs.
"Kevin that wasn't very nice! I feel as though we tricked her…the guilt makes my stomach turn." Edd whined, deep down he was happy that he got a deal but concerned that he had tricked the selling lady.
"It's fine dork. I know the sale price for the Amethy-whatever it's called and I paid like $5 more than the original price. Don't feel bad ok." He handed Edd one of the jewels. Edd quickly connected the dots and dug into his pocket for money.
"No. I don't want your money." Kevin hid his face looking away shyly. "It's a gift dork…"
A pair of noodle arms wrapped around his neck in a suffocating hold.
"THANK YOU!" Edd hugged Kevin tightly. "THIS IS THE MOST AMAZING PRESENT! THANK YOU!"
Kevin stood stiff. His face becoming hot.
Omg he's hugging me. I can feel his heart beat. Oh god. What do I do?! Fuck. Fuck. Fuck. Fuck. Fuck.
Kevin hesitated but his arms wrapped around Edd slowly drawing the other closer. He buried his face into Edd's shoulder taking in the scent of the other. One of his hands clenched Edd's neck and the other wrapped around Edd's waist gripping the slender boy.
He smells like vanilla. I hope I smell good…shit! I didn't shower after practice! Fuck my life. I should hav-
"K-Kevin. You're suffocating me!" Edd struggled to remove himself from the Kevin's tight grip.
"OH! Sorry!" Kevin released the other holding his hands up in embarrassment. "My bad."
"Kevin did you perhaps miss out on taking a shower." Edd asked trying not to be offensive.
"What? NO...uh I did shower…w-w-why do you say that…do I stink?"
"Not at all! I must admit I was admiring the way your scent has a faint oak smell. In fact I can smell what you ate for lunch." Edd leaned in closer to smell Kevin. "Cheeseburger, ketchup and either onion rings or garlic fries?"
"Woah dude how'd you guess that?!" Kevin stepped away from Edd in disbelief.
"I did not guess Kevin. I have a very particular nose. Dear me have I weirded you out?" Edd said hinting his sadness.
"Nah! That's so cool! Scary kind of…but cool!"
Kevin looked at the time. 7:58pm.
"Yo Edd we should head to the movies pronto."
"You are absolutely right Kevin! Let us depart." Edd and Kevin walked shoulder to shoulder every step of the way.
8:20pm Downtown movie theaters
The movie theater was packed. The mass movement of people leaving and entering was chaos. The lines for the concessions were mistaken for the lines for the bathroom and people pushed and shoved to get to their destination. Edd and Kevin stood in the food line waiting.
"Kevin what would you like to eat?"
"XXL Popcorn, hotdog and a pack of Skittles & Sour Patch kids, ice cream sandwich, pretzel with cheese and…OH a diet coke." Kevin blurted out.
"I am in awe. Do athletes usually eat like this?" Edd couldn't comprehend the amount of food Kevin wanted.
"Nah. It's just me. I eat a lot because I have a high metabolism…but I got a body like a Hollister model." Kevin winked.
"Kevin I don't think I have enough money…" Edd felt pathetic counting the amount of money he had.
"It's cool let's just get popcorn and a drink. The classics man." Kevin teased making Edd blush. There was a slight crowd of people at the movie theaters, no one Edd knew from school although he still felt uneasy. After getting their food they headed to their movie.
The movie was filled with jump scares and CGI affects that only scared Edd. Kevin laughed at Edd every time he jumped. Half way through the movie Kevin tried to hold Edd's hand but Edd sat with his hands tucked between his legs. By the end of movie both felt tired and stiff from sitting in the same position.
"What's wrong?" Kevin whispered in Edd's ear as they walked out the movie theaters. The hot air from Kevin's mouth brushed against the nape of Edd's neck making his spine shiver.
"Nothing!" Edd squeaked jumping in surprise. Suddenly a person hit Edd's shoulder as they were walking by and made Edd spill his bucket of popcorn and drink.
"Watch where you're going." The guy harshly said. Edd noticed the football varsity jacket but it wasn't from his school. It was blue, white and gold clearly showing the proud hummingbirds. The only high school in Daisy Village known to be Peach Creek's rivals.
"What a klutz." The man laughed with his group of friends as they walked away. The man was large like a hamster on steroids, his face a mess of scars and acne. He loomed over Edd. He was a head taller and larger in width.
"My apologies! I didn't mean to do such a thing!" Edd bowed his head. He felt hands on his shoulder dragging him up.
"Don't lower your head idiot." Kevin glared at the group of guys. "HEY! Assholes."
The group of guys turned around moving as a pack of wolves.
"What do you want?" The hamster looking man moved close to Kevin so they were face to face. His friends backing him up trying to look menacing.
"Apologize for bumping into my friend." Kevin didn't flinch and firmly stood his ground. "Or we're going to have a problem."
"That's your friend?" Edd stood behind Kevin trying to hide. "Hey I know you. AREN'T YOU PEACH CREEK'S FOOTBALL CAPTAIN. Guys check this loser out."
"Who are you calling a loser? Didn't we cream you guys 95-0?"
The hamster guy huffed in anger trying to think of a comeback. His friends backed up in a loss for words.
"You're talking to the captain of the football team. Do you understand what position you're in? I can have you kicked off the football team just by reporting you for destructive behavior."
The hamster man balled his fist glaring at Kevin. A heavy silence followed.
"Sorry." The hamster whispered quietly.
"What I didn't hear you?" Kevin mocked.
"Kevin it's quite alright." Edd said weakly.
"No he didn't say it loud enough. Again. Apologize." Kevin threatened.
"I'm sorry." The other said through clenched teeth.
"Good boy. See you later." Kevin waved his hand telling them to leave.
The group grudgingly walked away in silent defeat. Kevin satisfied turned around towards Edd hoping to be praised.
"Kevin I would like to go home now." Edd was flustered. He didn't know how to react and he had enough of Kevin.
"What's wrong?"
"I would like to go home now." Edd voice shook and wavered. He didn't make eye contact with Kevin his gaze glued to the floor.
The car ride home was filled with dead air. Edd looked out the window in dismay. He didn't turn once. Kevin kept looking to his right checking on Edd.
10:45pm Peach Creek
Kevin was close to the cul-de-sac and he felt the pressure weigh on him. The dead air made him depressed. He wanted to talk to Edd but he knew the other wasn't in the mood. He wanted to know why the other was distancing himself.
Edd blankly stared out the window.
"Uh…Edd did I do something wrong?" Kevin hesitated to ask.
Edd didn't move an inch. Ignoring Kevin Edd put his headphones in and continued staring out the window.
"Dude are you really giving me the silent treatment?" Desperate for attention Kevin yanked out the headphones with brute strength making Edd yelp in pain. "Listen when someone is talking to you."
Kevin swerved taking a sharp right turn into Edd's driveway. Edd quickly unbuckled his seatbelt getting ready to leave. Kevin reached over and pulled Edd towards him.
"Hey why won't you look at me? What did I do?" He held Edd by the shoulders trying to turn Edd to face him. Edd struggled keeping his head facing the window.
"I won't let you leave without telling me WHATS WRONG?!" Kevin knew his voice shook with rage. Edd trembled hearing Kevin shout.
Kevin sensed the fear and softened. Guilt washed over him but he still felt frustrated. He gripped the wheel until his fingers became numb.
"Edd please what did I do wrong. Please talk to me." Kevin ached inside.
"Kevin I apologize for causing you trouble. I believe we should not interact outside of school that is not related to school work." Edd whispered sadly. He opened the car door quickly and headed towards his house.
Edd heard the driver seat door open and slam close. He was grabbed by the shoulders and forcibly turned around.
"Why?!" Kevin yelled in despair. "I don't understand? I thought we had fun today? What went WRONG?"
"I do not want to associate myself with you. Today was memorable…but every second with you was agonizing." Edd began to quiver on the verge of tears. "I felt like a burden going along with you, less valued being compared to you, pathetic when you had to stand up for me…we can't be friends nor anything more than that…"
"What can I do to make you feel better?" Kevin begged. "What can I do so that we can just be friends?"
"Nothing." Edd said coldly. He left no room for a response. His eyes filled with tears.
Kevin let go of Edd and swung his arms in defeat. Edd unlocked his front door fumbling with his keys.
"Good night. Kevin." Edd shut the door quietly leaving Kevin in awe.
