A Little Help
Entering Automotive class, Edd walked into class hesitantly then relaxed a bit when he didn’t see Kevin yet. He did however spot Julie looking at her phone as she waited for class to start. DD walked over and smiled “Salutations Julie.”
Julie looked up “Oh, hey…. Er, I forgot your name. Sorry.”
DD laughed “Just call me Double D or D. It’s what everyone calls me.”
Julie chuckled “Alright then Double D.” she patted the stool next to her “Sit?”
“Oh, why thank you.” Edd sat down next to her then pulled out a book.
“What’s that?” Julie asked as Edd opened to a bookmarked page.
Edd looked at her then turned to the cover page, keeping his current page bookmarked with his finger “Pride and Prejudice by Jane Austen. It’s quite a good read.” he looked back to his pages “A character Mr. Collins just tried to propose to Elizabeth.” he chuckled “She outright refuses him much to her family's distaste. Well, her Mother’s distaste anyway, her Father is overjoyed.”
Julie smiled “Sounds like an interesting book.” she turned back to her phone then handed him her phone “Number?”
Edd shrugged “Sure.” He took her phone and typed in his number then handed the phone back. Julie took her phone back then texted Edd who looked at his phone, seeing a message from an unknown contact.
Unknown: Hello stranger x3
Double D chuckled and texted back.
Me: Greetings unknown individual.
Julie giggled then looked at Edd “You have a cool way of talking. I’ve never heard someone talk the way you do. It’s very sophisticated.”
Edd blushed “Oh, thank you.” Edd looked up as he heard the door open and Kevin entered the class, bike helmet in hand like always. Kevin glanced over at Edd for a second before going to a stool away from everyone and sitting down.
Julie whispered to Edd “He looks antisocial today doesn’t he? Isn’t he the kid that usually goes around being the unofficial Teacher’s Assistant?”
Double D nodded “Yes, that’s him.” he sighed then looked down at his book “My speculation is that he is going through some personal issues at the moment.”
Julie nodded “Ah, I see it now.” she then went back to her phone.
Mr. Gibson walked out of his office and clapped his hands startling all the students who were buried in their phones. “Alright ladies and gentlemen! Let’s get this class started up!” he went over to his desk and leaned against the front of it “Yesterday I gave you guys a packet to work on. Now, I get that a majority of it is math related, but having some math skills when working with mechanical stuff is a useful skill to have. I’ve already had two kids complain about it to me. John, Phil, I’m lookin at you guys.” The two boys blushed and sank into their stools. Mr. Gibson continued “Before we get into more hands-on projects, I want you guys to finish those packets and turn them in by tomorrow beginning of class.” he picked one up off his desk then walked over to Kevin and handed it to him “You weren’t here yesterday, you can partner up with someone if you want to catch up.”
Kevin took the packet and Edd noted that the jock was wearing black leather gloves again “Okay.” Kevin said stoically.
Mr. Gibson eyed Kevin for a moment then went back to the front of the class “Okay guys, get crackin!”
Edd got out his packet and put a pencil behind his ear. He’d already finished it yesterday, but he wanted to double check his work. He was on the sixth problem when his phone buzzed. DD picked it up and opened the message.
Unknown: Dweeb
Unknown: Come ovr here n hlp me w/ this shit
Edd looked up from his phone and saw Kevin holding his phone but not looking up at him. Double D looked back down and wrote back.
Me: Alright, I shall be over in approximately ten seconds.
DD packed up his things then looked over at Julie “A classmate needs my assistance, excuse me.”
Julie smiled “Okay, see ya.”
Edd stood up then walked over to Kevin with his stool in the other hand. He put his stool next to the jock then sat down “You have atrocious typing skills.”
Kevin snorted “Whatever. I didn't ask you to come over here and make fun of how I text.”
DD chuckled “No, you did not.” he plucked his pencil from behind his ear “So, what do you need assistance with?”
Thirty minutes later, Edd helped Kevin through two-thirds of the packet. He didn't help him on the obviously easy questions, but he did help when he thought Kevin’s brain would explode because of how hard the question was. Edd actually found it amusing how Kevin would react when he didn't understand a problem but he didn't want to look like he was stupid. Kevin would grit his teeth then insult the question colorfully. Edd would catch the end of a small smile on Kevin’s lips after DD would laugh at the more amusing insults. When the end of class bell rung, Edd stood up and pulled on his satchel “Hey Kevin?”
Kevin stood up, grabbed his backpack but didn't put it on, adjusted his collar to keep covering his neck then grabbed his helmet “Yeah?”
DD rubbed the strap across his chest “Um, if you wish to continue this packet together, you can come over my house whenever you need to.”
Edd saw Kevin’s eyebrows raise in surprise from above the sunglasses rims “Really?”
Double D smiled “Sure, it would be cruel for me to not help you in your favorite subject.”
Edd could feel Kevin eye him from behind the dark lenses. “Hn, fine. I'll text you later or something.” The two of them walked out and Edd watched as Kevin walked away, discreetly and quickly took off his sunglasses then pulled on his helmet. Kevin hopped on his bike then his helmet turned to look at Edd who was next to his own bike. The jock nodded to him, revved up the engine loudly then took off down the street.
Double D chuckled and shook his head then started to pedal to his own home. When he got home, he started on his Botany homework then finished his History work. Some time after dinner around seven, he heard his phone go off. Edd picked it up then clicked the caller button and put it up to his ear. “Edd speaking.”
“Hey Double D, it's Kevin.”
Edd smiled and sat up on his bed “Oh, greetings Kevin. What can I do for you?”
“I got most of the shit I could do by myself done in the packet. Think I could come over for the rest?”
Edd smiled “Yes, the time is appropriate. You may head over at your convenience.” Edd heard a heavy exhale from the phone.
“Thanks D.”
Edd heard the line go silent and he looked at his phone; Kevin hung up. Double D put his phone down and felt himself get jittery “Why am I so nervous? I'm just helping a friend with homework.” he tapped his cheeks then got off his bed and started to clean up his already clean room. Five minutes later Edd heard the doorbell ring and he jumped up “Good Heavens!” He put a hand over his heart and scowled himself as he walked over to the front door. DD opened the door and smiled “Hello Kevin, please come in.” He stepped to the side and Kevin walked in.
Kevin had his hands in his pockets as he walked in and looked around with his eyes still obscured. “Huh.”
Edd closed the door “What is it?”
Kevin shrugged “Kinda thought it would be all nerds or something in here. It's actually pretty… um, modern I guess is the word.”
DD blinked at the jock then looked around “Hm, I guess it is. Well, can I offer you a refreshment?”
Kevin shrugged again “Sure. What you got?”
Edd walked over to the refrigerator and opened it “Hm,” he pulled out a glass long neck bottle with something brown and translucent in it “Cream soda?”
Kevin smirked “Sure, been awhile since I've had one.” He grabbed the bottle from Double D then popped off the top with the hem of his jacket.
DD didn't have the strength to do that so he just got a bottle opener and got it open that way. They both took a gulp then Edd smiled “Follow me.” He motioned with the bottle then walked into his room.
“Woah.”
Edd looked behind him at Kevin “What is it now?”
Kevin looked around Edd’s room. The Room itself was very organized and clean but was littered with things that were part of Edd’s personality. Kevin walked over to a poster and smirked “Queens of the Stone Age?” he turned to another poster “No way, you have a Skillet poster?” he turned to Edd “You listen to Skillet?”
Double D shrugged “What of it? I can enjoy modern music if I want. Did you assume I listened only to the older classics?”
Kevin chuckled “Kind of, yeah.” He went over to the potted cactus on the window sill and looked at it “Jim right?”
Double D’s eyes widened “You… You remember Jim's name?”
Kevin stood back up and shrugged “Yeah I guess.” he pointed to the plant “Also, there's a label on the pot at says Jim.”
Edd chuckled “Oh, right.” he rubbed the back of his neck then sat down in the upper middle part of his bed “Well, shall we begin?”
Kevin shrugged “Sure.” He slipped off his shoes then hopped on the bed and pulled out a folded paper. He unfolded it then turned to a page “I'm stuck on this one here.” he pointed to the problem.
Double D leaned over, took the paper and looked at it “Hm, I see.” He scooted over on his bed and motioned for Kevin to join him. Kevin hesitated then crawled up the bed and sat next to Edd. Double D pulled out his pencil from the nightstand next to him then said “Okay, here's how you do this one.”
Ten minutes later, Double D stopped helping Kevin as he watched the jock try to work out the question himself. He couldn’t see Kevin’s eyes, but he knew that they were zoned in on the question. “Hey, Kevin?”
Kevin looked up from the question the back down and continued to work on it “What’s up?”
Edd bit his lower lip then said “Could… Could you take off the sunglasses?” he noticed Kevin tense up so he said quickly “You don’t need to, but i’ve already seen it so you don’t have to have them on.” Edd watched the wheels turn in Kevin’s head then the jock slowly reached up and pulled the sunglasses off. Double D’s breath hitched when he saw the black eye but it looked better than when he last saw it. There was another cut under his other eye though that had Edd concerned since it was red and irritated around the edge.
Kevin kept his eyes down at his paper but wasn’t looking at the problem “Well?”
Edd blinked as he was brought out of staring “W-What?”
Kevin turned his head to look at DD “You going to say anything?”
Edd pressed his lips into a thin line “There’s nothing for me to say other than offer my services to help with your wounds.” he half smiled “I do have training in being a nurse, don’t forget.” he leaned in a bit closer and looked at the fresher looking cut “That laceration under your right eye looks like it might become infected, will you allow me to take care of it?”
Kevin’s eyes searched Edd’s face for a moment then finally giving in “Fine.”
DD smiled “Great. Stay right here.” He hopped off his bed then ran into his bathroom. When he came back out, he was carrying a white box with a red plus on it.
Kevin chuckled “It’s a cut, I’m not dying.”
Edd smiled crookedly down at the box as he opened it, a light blush on his cheeks “Ah, yes I know. All my medical supplies are in here though.” he pulled out a cotton ball and a bottle “Close your eye, this may sting a bit but it will fade after a second or two.” Kevin nodded the closed his eyes. Double D’s heart skipped a beat at the sight of a waiting and close-eyed Kevin sitting in front of him. Edd shook his head and reminded himself that he had a patient to take care of. Edd scooted on his knees in front of Kevin then said “Applying the disinfectant now.” he poured some of the liquid on the cotton ball then dabbed the wound. He heard Kevin suck in a breath but remain still otherwise. He sat back and tossed the cotton ball into the red bin labeled ‘Hazard’. Edd looked at the wound in thought then said “You know, I can put a butterfly closure on that so it has a lower chance of scarring.”
Kevin didn’t open his eyes but shrugged “Go for it. I don’t care if it scars or not.”
Edd went back into his kit and pulled out a small butterfly closure “Hold still.” He leaned in and pressed the wound closed with his left hand then applied the closure with his right hand. Edd leaned back then blushed again; Kevin looked completely badass to Double D right now. The jock had on his leather biker jacket still with the collar popped up, a white v-neck t-shirt, his usual backwards hat then the bruise and butterfly closure closed cut on his face.
Kevin opened his eyes then leaned back a bit “D? You alright?”
Double D blinked then remembered himself and stopped being creepy “Oh! Forgive my closeness. I was… just… making sure it was staying put… the butterfly closure I mean”
Kevin raised an eyebrow at Edd “Okay then…?” He looked down in his lap then tapped his thumbs together.
“Can I-” They booth looked up at the same time; they had said the words in unison.
Edd blushed “Um, you first.”
Kevin surprised Double D by slightly blushing and rubbing his left arm “Can I talk to you about somethin?”
Edd nodded “Of course. What about?”
Kevin gripped the fabric on his arm “Look… Uh… About the other night… at the party…”
Edd’s heart thumped loudly then he waved his hands “I-I t’s alright Kevin! We were both under the effects of whatever drink Rolf gave us and our comrades! I hold nothing against you!” Though he said that, he felt his face burning up with a blush.
Kevin raised his eyebrows “Really? You’re not… Uh, disgusted or anything?”
Edd fidgeted with his hands in his lap and looked down at them “N-No. I find myself not disgusted nor revolted by the action that had taken place.”
Kevin sighed with relief “Oh that’s good. I tho-” he paused “Wait, what?”
Double D’s face became redder “Uh, I just… I meant that I um, I-I understood it was not a conscious action… M-Merely an action under the influence of what I am to assume is alcohol, and perhaps the music that had been playing at the time that raised the hormone levels in all of our bodies...” He didn’t look up once as he spoke nervously.
Kevin watched Edd talk nervously and fidget where he was sitting across from him. The jock took in what Edd said and how he looked as he said it. Suddenly, a wave of realization washed over him and he stared at the teen across from him. “Edd.”
Double D flinched; Kevin saying his name like that meant he was about to say something serious. He didn’t look up but said “Y-Yes Kevin?
Kevin leaned in and eyed Edd closily “Do you have a crush on me?”
