So sorry for the lateness once again :P
I recently adopted a puppy and my soul had been consumed by her cuteness
I was a bit hesitant when writing this chapter, cause i added in another OC. i typically don't like adding alot of OC's and only add them in if i think they are relevant in some way.
So without further rambelings here is the next chapter...
He had woken up very early the next day the smell of pancakes waking him up. He assumed it must be around 7 in the morning as it was the usual time his father left. When he sat up he heard the door closing and minutes after his father's truck roar out loud, no doubt waking up the entire cul-de-sac. Kevin chuckled out at the thought of angry neighbors half asleep in their pajamas. Oh, sure the Barr men had had many encounters with this particular scene, believe it or not when Kevin was younger he'd get into mischief with his friend Rolf who used to live a couple houses over. However the home was now occupied by a friendly old couple. After being caught or scolded Kevin would pleasantly surprise his neighbors by doing a chore of his own willingness.
Deciding it was pointless to dress now, the ginger headed quickly towards the bathroom to brush before quickly running down to the kitchen. What he saw of course was his favorite breakfast in the whole world, pancakes. Sometimes his father just excelled at being the world's number one dad. Never in his life would he be able to repay his father for everything. Kevin had a motto if he wasn't able to make his father proud in physical sports, than he would go far beyond in what he was good at. At least that was the only way he thought he was able to make it up for his lack of talent in sports.
He sat down and happily ate his still warm breakfast. He could hear the kids beginning to come out of their homes and run across the street to play. It was a cheerful morning he thought, the atmosphere very bright. Well, it was summer after all.
He got up and placed the dishes in the sink, filling it up with soapy water. He decided to wash the dishes in the evening, and went to the living room turning on the television as he laid back on the couch. There was nothing much to see, most channels still had on sesame street, Dora the Explorer and such kid's shows. He turned it off staring at a blank screen. It was times like these he didn't know what to do with himself. So the ginger decided to get up and get dressed and head out to town as he waited for Ed.
He waved hello to some of the kids who were wishing him a good morning and got his bike out. Her engine beautifully roared awake, and vibrated under his touch. It was this feeling that got him excited to ride off onto the streets of Peach Creek every time. He stepped on the pedal and rode off with a huge grin on his face.
As he arrived in town he saw little people hanging around town, some opening their shops, some enjoying a nice breakfast outside in the morning sun, while others jogged or walked around the block. Kevin had little chance of going into town during school days because the risk of him bumping into the J's was highly probable. However he knew for a fact that around this time the J's would be out of town on vacation god knows where with their rich parents. So he freely and calmly walked around after parking his bike. He looked into shops and when something caught his eyes he would walk in to explore. The ginger had seen a comic book store which had interested him very much. He walked in the place surrounded by one or two teenagers reading and a bored young man at the counter. He looked about 18, tall scrawny, a subtle forming on his chin with a green alien t-shirt that said I Don't Believe In Humans. Kevin found it kina funny and headed into the manga section picking up random volumes of Naruto, Tokyo ghoul, and One Piece and flipped through them.
30 minutes later he left the store buying the same shirt the employee was wearing except in black. You can't blame him it was a pretty cool shirt. Kevin was in fact very much into the supernatural, though he didn't talk about it much as it was some sort of guilty pleasure. Though you must know he hadn't necessarily gotten the shirt for himself, rather it was for someone else he though the shirt represented very well that it made him chuckle.
As he walked down the street turning this way and that he found a couple of blocks that he hadn't recognized. There was a small café, a flower shop right next to it, some apartment buildings, a bookshop and other little stores full of curious things. He looked in each store through the window, and jumped as he felt his phone buzz suddenly. It was a message from Ed [Good Morning, so when and where do you want to meet today?] as he finished typing his reply he felt a pair of footsteps come uncomfortably close to him. Kevin turned around glancing up from sending his text into familiar striking blue eyes.
Kevin jumped a little startled and simply stood dumbfounded looking onto the figure that was Eddward Vincent.
"What are you doing here?" the raven haired asked looking curious.
The ginger observed the other, he was wearing casual clothing composed of his usual beanie, ripped up jeans, a blood red T-shirt that clung to his fit torso nicely, and sweat bands on each wrist. "What do you mean what I'm doing? What are you doing here?" he asked back extremely curious what the swimmer was doing out in public so early in the morning.
Irritated the raven haired barked out "I asked first"
Pouting the ginger answered "Just walking around while I wait for someone" he crossed his arms looking up at the other hearing the rustle of the bag. Kevin noticed the swimmer eyeing the bag curiously and smiled "I got you something jerk" he took the shirt out and handed it to Eddward who only stared at the shirt.
As Eddward read the shirt he made a face "What's this?"
"It's a shirt genius, I think it describes you perfectly" the ginger chuckled, shoving his hands in his pockets.
Awkwardly the other continued to stare at the shirt "here" he said attempting to hand it back.
Kevin simply shrugged "it's a gift, take it. I was going to give it to you another day anyways." He smiled up. The swimmer was about to open his mouth to say something when they heard a bell ring as a door opened behind them.
"Eddward who is this?" A raspy small voice called out from behind them. They turned around and saw a 50 something year old woman walked up to them smiling. "Are you a friend?" she asked Kevin giving him a soft smile. She wore a loose light pink long dress with a flower pattern and a white cardigan over. Her hair a light shade of golden brown that gently curled at the tips as it reached her shoulders. She had glimmering light brown eyes, and her lips covered by a soft pink lipstick displacing her friendly smile perfectly.
"Oh, um..." He hesitated unsure of what to answer, so he looked up for some validation from the other feeling a bit stupid.
"My, my don't be so shy dear, come inside and join us for a glass of ice tea." She pushed Kevin inside.
"Ann, he was just about to leave" Eddward said as he followed, shirt still gripped in hand.
She turned around and gave Eddward a playful slap to his arm "Don't be so rude, let him stay." She placed a hand next to her lips to whisper "He's quite adorable, ain't he?" She chuckled. Kevin chuckled as well looking back at the swimmer and sticking his tongue out jokingly. She patted Kevin in the arm gesturing him to sit down on a stool that was next to the counter. "What's you name Hun?" She asked.
"My names Kevin Barr" he rubbed his hands against his jeans. He was always highly nervous meeting new people, some kind of social anxiety he supposed.
"A very strong name I see, I'm Anna Adams, you can call me Ann for short or if you want to be formal Ms. Adams will do" she patted his shoulder once again. "Alright I'll be right back boys" she said and they watched her disappear behind a very colorful cotton cloth that was hung on the ceiling to divide this room and the next.
Eddward tossed the shirt on a table behind the counter and sat down looking at the ginger annoyingly.
Kevin gave another shrug and smirked crookedly at the other. "So, who is she?" He whispered.
"My boss" Eddward stated his irritated stare not wavering as he crossed his arms to further intimidate the other.
"WAIT! You work here?!" Kevin straightened up in his seat with wide eyes. He turned around to look around the shop. The entire shop was overflowed with many kinds of different items, there were mirrors, jewelry, statues, paintings, pottery and gods knows what else. It appeared to be an antiques shop, Kevin walked over to look around fascinated by the items. "Antiques?" He asked.
"No shit Sherlock" the raven haired called looking over a journal full of scribbles as he rested his head on one hand.
Annoyed Kevin looked back to see if the other wasn't looking and stuck his tongue out once again "wonder how she hired such a unmannered person"
Eddward scoffed as he rolled his eyes "says the person who childishly stuck his tongue out twice" he looked up from his scribbling.
Smirking Kevin made his way back sitting on the stool once again "I bet you know every little detail of history behind everything in here"
"As a matter of fact I do" Eddward said moving his attention to a laptop on the counter and entered names and numbers.
"Of course" Kevin breathed out as he heard rustling behind the sheet and saw Ms. Adams struggling to balance a plate of cookies and glasses with one hand and a jug of ice tea on the other. Immediately Kevin hopped over and took a hold of the items and brought them over to the counter.
"Oh Eddward leave that silly list alone and enjoy a refreshing glass of tea" Mrs. Adams huffed as she poured the tea in a glass and handed one to Kevin and another to Eddward who would not rip away from his task. The woman just chuckled to herself "we're getting new inventory soon" she explained "Go on take a sip"
Blushing Kevin lifted his glass and drank. It tasted minty and very familiar, curious he took another and tried so very hard to remember where he had had the same tea before. He looked up and noticed the other had glanced in his direction. Kevin smirked, now he had it, it was the exact same tea Eddward made at home only cold. Not so secret anymore huh he thought. "It's very delicious Ms. Adams thank you" the ginger smiled at the women.
"I'm so happy you like it, Eddward loves it as well" she smiled looking over at the focused raven haired. Her eyes came back to the attention of Kevin in cheer joy "My, it really is nice to meet a friend of Eddward's. He doesn't talk about himself at all"
Eddward sighed and looked up at the women "There really isn't much to know Ann"
Pouting the women looked back at Kevin "He's been here almost a year and I know so little about him. Tell me is he just as thick headed at school?"
This caused Kevin to erupt into laughter, he was definitely going to get along with Ms. Adams just fine. "All the time" he finally said calming down.
"I'll have you know he's worse" the swimmer accused and took his attention back to the computer.
"Am not!" Kevin said aloud glaring at Eddward playfully.
The woman simply laughed enjoying the bickering between the two "well I see you both get along just great" she paused putting her glass down and handing a cookie to the ginger, who took it gratefully. "So tell me about yourself Kevin, what brings you here so early in the morning?"
"Oh I was just waltzing around town. Never really get to explore much throughout the school year." He smiled up.
"And what do you do for fun? I find it hard for you polar opposites to get along so well" she chuckled placing a hand on her cheek.
"I love robotics, quiz bowl, riding my motorcycle, reading, learning new things" Kevin shrugged taking a bite out of his cookie.
"Oh another highly intellectual child I see, your parents must be so proud of you" Ms. Adams smiled
"It's just my dad and I, and I sure hope he is" Kevin chuckled nervously.
At this statement Eddward looked up curiosity getting the better of him. He eyed the ginger observantly he seemed to be a bit jittery, was it the mention of his absent mother?
"What happened to your mother?" Ms. Adams asked what Eddward wanted to know.
"Died when I was a baby" the ginger simply stated taking a bite of another cookie.
"Oh I'm so sorry dear" she intertwined her hands together giving him a saddened look.
"It's alright, we've been just fine my dad and I" he smiled. He never understood why people always seemed to take pity on him for his lack of a mother figure, but he supposed it was because he never grew attached to his mom, and well that was cause he never knew her. I mean, sure she was beautiful and great and if Kevin had the opportunity he would have wanted to have his mother around. However that just simply wasn't realistic, so he was happy the universe had given him a strong father. "Everything happens for a reason" he stated softly looking down at his glass.
Ms. Adams exhaled softly smiling up at the boy "Indeed it does dear, it really does"
Kevin took his phone out and looked at the time "AH I'm so sorry I should be leaving. I'm meeting up with a friend soon" he placed his glass down on the counter. He hesitantly looked back at Eddward before finding some courage once again and sticking his hand out "C-can I see your phone for a second?" he asked
The swimmer raised an eyebrow and stared at him for a long pause "No" he stated
Rolling his eyes Kevin grabbed his own out and placed it on the counter "There you can hold onto mine for a bit, really quickly please?"
Eddward's stare moved towards the woman who was eyeing him with a look that clearly said Go on Eddward "Fine" he said getting his phone out and handing it to the ginger. He saw the ginger fiddle with the phone rapidly typing something in, and noticed a notification had come in for the ginger's phone.
"Alright done" Kevin said handing it back and grabbing his own "See ya" he waved
"Let me walk you out my boy" Ms. Adams patted him on the shoulder turning him towards the door before stopping and looking back at the raven haired who was occupied with the computer once again. "Say good-bye Eddward"
Eddward looked up a bit annoyed "Good riddance" he quickly said before going back to typing.
She rolled her eyes "Is he always like this with you?" she asked
Kevin chuckled opening the door for them to walk out "Don't worry I take it as a compliment"
"I'm glad, he's a really sweet boy on the inside of that stubborn shell" she smiled glancing back inside. "It's been so lovely meeting you Kevin Barr" she said looking back at the teen.
"I suppose he could be" the ginger laughed nervously knowing well that this woman was oblivious to the Eddward he knew. "Nice meeting you too Ms. Adams"
She placed her tender fingers to his cheeks cupping his face and giving him a wonderful smile "I can see you are very strong my dear. Truly I hope to see you here more often. You are welcome anytime you hear me"
"Thank you" the ginger nodded as he smiled down blushing a bit at the compliment. "Alright then, I hope you have a good day Ms. Thank you for the cookies and tea they were very delicious"
"Have a fun and safe beautiful summer day Dear" the woman waved goodbye for a second before heading back inside.
Eddward had seen the pair make their exit and he quickly checked his phone wanting to know what exactly the ginger had done, he looked all over his phone and when scrolling through his contacts he noticed a new one had been made with the name K. it was simple but he knew it stood for Kevin. The swimmer looked up and saw the ginger blushing as Ms. Adams released her hold on him. A moment later she had walked back inside smiling. "What a wonderful boy, he's definitely a keeper" she said loud enough for Eddward to hear her as she walked past and behind the hanging fabric.
Eddward lowered his eyebrows confused looking at the direction the women had disappeared. "What's that supposed to mean?" he asked suspiciously.
"Nothing at all" she called out nonchalantly
"It's never nothing with you" he said
The woman poked her head back out "Shouldn't you be getting back to work Mr. Vincent?"
Eddward gave her a smirk "Right" he said as he picked up the notebook and placed it next to the computer and resumed typing.
…
Kevin rushed off feeling excited. He had learned and met someone new. He supposed that it would make sense that the swimmer would have a job, the kid lived alone and god knows how long his parents took to send him money...if they did that is. It came to the gingers attention how strangely ordinary Eddward was. Behind the hard core bully he knew at school there was what Ms. Adams described a sweet boy. Though he found it hard to believe that he was sweet, Kevin had seen a more of a um, compassionate side so to say to him but not enough to call him sweet. It made him wonder what facade, if it was one, was he displacing to the women. Certainly not one he had seen, though he pretty much looked as normal as he usually did in public.
As for Ms. Adams, well let's just say she was definitely well liked. A lovely women, reminded him a lot of his grandmother before grandpa Barr passed away.
He passed shops and streets and he made his way up north where a small park was located across the street there was an ice cream shop named the Jefferson's ice cream Parlor. The business was family owned and stylized in retro, one of Kevin's favorite places. The floor titled in black and white the seats and stools in bright red, many old posters. The place was ageless and honestly sold the best ice cream.
He stood outside waiting for the other Ed. Kevin chuckled, he found it funny and weird that both teens shared the same name, but spelled differently. It really was funny one so happy and kind and the other so...not. He wondered if the two of them knew of each other, well Ed certainly had to know about Eddward, I mean who didn't.
The ginger rocked on his feet leaning against a wall looking onto passing cars and citizens. It was definitely a nice day to be out and about. "Hey Kevin!"
Kevin turned to face the direction the voice had come from and saw the short haired brunette walking up to him. He was wearing a white and red stripped shirt and cargo shorts "Hey Ed" he waved. He was actually happy to see the kid, it had been a while since the last time the Kevin had attended Quiz Bowl. All the beatings and such going on a daily basis during school had made it extremely hard for him to attend his extracurricular activities. Though, he had slipped into Robotics every now and then, because he was aiming to gain a scholarship for college. He walked up to the boy "how's you summer going so far"
The cheerful boy simply smiled squinting as little as he did so "it's been awesome Kevin, been helping my grandma a lot with her chicken coop and caring for them. How has your been? Hopefully not too gloomy without Nazz"
"Totally forgot about your love of chickens" the ginger chuckled softly nodding "It's been good I guess, and nah I mean it might be better for her to get of town you know, relax for once" he shrugged.
"Mmhmm, she's going to wrinkle and have gray hair early in life from all the stress if you keep on making her worry" The taller boy lifted his hand to ruffle the hair underneath his hat knocking it over a bit.
"Just cause you're a giant doesn't give you the right to treat me like a toddler" Kevin pouted placing his hat on correctly then started laughing at the thought of him and Nazz in old age "though it would be hilarious to see Nazz as a cranky old lady"
Ed made gestures with his hands making them point a trembling finger at him and scrunched his facial features "Damn it Kevin, stop clogging up the toilet you old fart" he spoke in a raspy voice.
The ginger burst out laughing holding his stomach tightly "p-perfect" he wheezed out. "Man..." He gasped "...alright then wanna go to the arcade?" He said when he finally was able to calmly talk.
The brunette's eyes sparkled in delight "Yeah!"
...
After an extremely fun couple of oh say...3 hours? The boys finally decided to rip away from the arcade. They had played practically every game there was and had spent a good amount of time in laser tag. Ed winning by a landslide to almost every game they competed in, which was well, everything.
It was around 2 in the afternoon by now, and the teens decided to head back to the ice cream parlor and well eat ice cream. As they entered they noticed a good amount of middle school kids hanging around causing trouble as they tried to lift the waitress shirt each time she walked by, to his amusement was an extreme fail. Rolling his eyes Kevin and Ed lined up to order form all the delicious favors that they had. Strawberry, butter chocolate almond, mint chocolate chip, and the list continued. If Kevin had to pick a favorite it, he'd find it extremely hard because he loved sweets and simply had many "favorites". Today however he went with mint Neapolitan because he thought it was a classic, and added nuts and chocolate chips on top. Ed had ordered a chocolate mudslide with strawberries on top.
They took a seat at the corner of the parlor where there was less people and plenty away from the annoying middle schoolers. It was a lively afternoon; most kids of not all were running about in town enjoying their summer beginnings. Kevin stared out the window watching some fifth graders running around the basketball court, pushing and teasing each other. There was one though about half the size of them watching intently from the sidelines, he was sitting down on the bench with his small hands formed into tiny fists as he gripped his shorts. His hazel eyes following the ball, calculating it's every bounce and the kid's movements.
He was oddly reminded of some very observant eyes he knew so well... Had his childhood been like that boys? From what Kevin could gather the raven haired teen was never very social, but what had he played as a kid? Had he met Blaine later in life or had they been friends already? Somehow...maybe somehow they were so different...? Kevin had only had Ralf as a friend; much like Eddward had Blaine, but had different family circumstances he supposed. How could a kid survive alone without his parents, surely his parents weren't as cruel as to leave an elementary school child on their own...right? Just how long has Eddward been alone...?
"Kevin"
He heard Ed's cheery voice call out to him and he faced the other still in a bit of a phase from his thoughts. "Yeah?"
"How have you been?" The brunette asked with a hint of concern in his tone.
Kevin smirked confused by the random question "Fine I guess? Why you ask?"
The other put down their half-eaten cone and stared a bit at it "You've been, uh I don't know different?" He shrugged.
Kevin made a face raising an eyebrow "what do you mean different? I don't feel different?" He laughed out.
"For one you've skipped out on Quiz Bowl, and I've noticed you have also skipped robotics... Freshman year you wouldn't have missed a meeting at all as I've been told." Ed laughed a bit "like kinda like you got kidnapped by an alien one night and was sent back home 'normal' but not really?"
Kevin laughed out at the ridiculous comparison "Maybe I have for all I know" he took his hat off and scratched at his scalp "I don't know, things happen man" he shrugged as well "but hey we all change right? I mean I'm the one who should be asking here"
Ed's looked at him bewildered "I've changed?"
Kevin leaned in curiosity pulling at his strings "you lied" he simply said smirking. The brunette raised an eyebrow, and he continued "you told Nazz you didn't know anything about the party, but you were there that night" he leaned back crossing his arms.
"Who could you possibly know that could confirm this?" Ed spoke in a soft voice to which Kevin though it was weirdly familiar. The brunette smiled back in his usual cheery innocent smile.
A bit taken aback by the brunettes response Kevin recognized the tone of speaking...it sounded much like Eddward's...he unfolded his arms sitting up straight "well E- um someone you probably don't know told me" he decided to keep it anonymous thinking that if mentioning Eddward's name might prevent the brunette from saying anything. Though he mentally slapped himself at his almost slip up. It might be that Ed knew something... No he might know more than he thought he would. Did he actually know Eddward? From his perspective the two boys were on completely opposite ends of the spectrum, never interacted in the slightest, and shared no classes that he knew of. They simply were never found in the same room together...Yet did he just mock Eddward's way of speaking, or is it a weird coincidence? Maybe he was just thinking too much on it.
"Fine, I was there" Ed shoved the little bit of cone left into his mouth before explaining further. "If I didn't tell either of you it was because I was merely trying to prevent more stress on you both, Nazz told me about the beating on both of you" he added shrugging a bit.
"What? But why were you there? As far as I know you had nothing to do there?" Kevin leaned in once again intrigued.
Ed sighed looking over to the middle school brats still failing to lift the waitress skirt when she passed. "I felt uneasy about the Lemon Brooke kids, I hadn't heard from their team leader and sure enough there were over half of the quiz bowl and robotics team in the basement." Ed scratched the black of his neck uneasy "they were sprayed with buckets of water balloons, food was thrown at them, some were used for punching bags, it was pretty bad"
Kevin's heart tightened in his chest, he felt his chest rise unsteady as he was mentally freaking out. What! B-but Eddward said- he said- HE fucking said nothing had happened, that they weren't there?! He cleared his throat and had a hand clench his shorts tightly trying his best not to run to the antique store and yell at the lying bastard. "Shit...How did you know where it was? And how did you get in?"
Ed chuckled "mm I have my ways of finding things out, am highly observant" he winked "and to answer the second question back door, They were very drunk. "
"Uh huh..." Kevin couldn't believe the brunettes luck "B-but I, I uh heard there was a fight, what happened?"
He stared observantly at the other and noticed that for a split second there was anger in the boy's expression, before he simply smirked once again "the dicks got mad I tried to get the kids out of there"
Kevin could tell he was only telling him half the truth, there seemed to be something there that the brunette wasn't telling him, and most likely wouldn't tell him. A sudden high pitch scream interrupted his thought, both of them turned to see what had caused the scream and saw the waitress with an extremely red face kicking the kids out of the parlor. Kevin rolled his eyes once again and turned his attention back to their conversation "but why were the bully's fighting amongst each other if they were mad at you, that doesn't make sense?"
The other was silent for a moment then leaned back in his seat shrugging "you should ask your friend Mr. Anonymous"
.
.
.
The ginger walked slowly back to the spot he had parked his motorcycle feeling numb from his overload of emotions and further questions. What did Eddward gain from lying to him again? How the hell did Ed know where the party was going to happen? How much were Eddward and Ed telling him the truth, how much was false? Why were the both of them keeping things from him? It was all so suspicious and just plain..."weird" he spoke out his last thought.
"What's weird?"
Kevin looked up noticing Eddward leaning against his bike with a poker face, his arms crossed against his chest, holding the shirt he had given him. "What?" He asked sincerely confused making his emotions scatter everywhere.
Rolling his eyes the raven haired stood straight and walked towards the ginger "Nevermind...here" he stretched out the arm that held the shirt "take it back, I don't want it" he stated.
The ginger stared at the shirt a moment before exhaling a sigh "look it's yours now do whatever the hell you want with it, but I'm not taking it back" he walked past the swimmer and headed for his bike taking his hat off and placing it in a small compartment.
Eddward stared at the ginger boy who was obviously bothered by something, and wasn't having it. He followed the boy to his bike and when he was placing his hat away he reached a hand out to grab onto the handle of the bike to trap the small teen.
Kevin felt his body pressed against the bike and he turned around annoyed and was about to say something but when he met those sharp-eyed blue orbs he felt his voice become stuck midway up his throat. "w-what do you want?" he managed to stutter out.
Eddward stared fixedly at Kevin also annoyed by the gingers sudden change in attitude "What's your deal? What did your girlfriend do now?"
Kevin held in his breath extremely curious as to why he cared? Was he possibly, maybe concerned? "Why do you care?" he decided to ask.
The swimmer narrowed his eyes a bit "cause it annoys me" he stated
"Well if it annoys you then please let me go home so your majesty won't be bothered" the ginger tried to push away the other highly irritated. All he wanted to do now was go home and take a nap, he didn't care if it was 3 in the afternoon and the sun was still high up in the sky, he just wanted away from everything at the moment. "Let go Eddward!" he shoved at the other harder.
The raven haired finally let go of the bikes handle however he did not move from his spot "You come all chirpy this morning and now you're leaving cross, what's got you so worked up?" he asked again determined not to let the ginger leave as he was.
Kevin once again looked back up to meet Eddward in the eyes trying extremely hard not to burst out in rage. "First of all Nazz isn't even in town, second of all she's not my girlfriend, more like my sister honestly, and third of all…" Kevin sighed "I'm just…getting annoyed with liars" he lowered his sight and looked to the side.
To his relief Eddward backed away slightly letting him breathe comfortably. "Who did you meet up with?" the swimmer asked after a moment.
"It doesn't matter…" Kevin replied not daring to look back up.
"Sure it doesn't" Kevin felt the other's hand be placed on top of his head and with slight pressure forced his eyes to look down at the ground. He noticed a mere foot of distance was between them. "Make sure you don't drive with such anger, or you'll run someone over if that thick head of yours is distracted" with that Kevin saw Eddward back away, though he continued to stare down at the ground even far after he had heard the painful footstep fade with distance.
Did he just show genuine concern for me?
Finally Kevin looked up and saw no trace of the taller teen anywhere, yet he could still feel his presence so near, the touch on his head burned into his skin, that strong smell of chlorine stung his nostrils…he looked back at his bike irritated though now it was because of something else, something he just didn't understand.
