Eddy smiled as he relaxed next to his sleeping beau. He never expected this to ever have happened, but he did not regret it at all. He stroked his partner's silky long hair and reminisced on how this all had started:
Two hours prior:
"C'mon Double-D, Is it ready yet?!"
"Patience is a virtue, Eddy", replied Edd with his usual stoic tolerance. "Just a few more adjustments." Creaking was heard, followed by metal clanking. "...And done!"
Edd wiped his brow and backed up, admiring his handiwork. It was a trait that Eddy secretly adored. Sure, the posture might seem arrogant to some, but It was the only time Eddy saw Double-D truly smile. Sometimes he wondered if the real reason he came up with these 'scams' was for financial reasons or for that smile. Either way worked for him.
Ugh…there I go again with the mushy stuff. Eddy thought, disgusted with himself. Lately, he had become a lot fonderDoubDouble-D than what was considered ‘normal’. He wished things would go back to the way they were with Double-D, because he was becoming almost attracted to him. What if he was gay? He shuddered, just thinking about his parents reaction if their son turned out to be a homosexual gave him the shivers.
He wasn't sure when these feelings for Double-D had begun. They were sixteen now and way past their awkward childhood phases...well almost. They still had their annual scams, for much higher profits, of course. The real major changes were that each of them had had a major growth spurt, well that's how it seemed in Eddy's eyes. He was proud enough to admit that he wasn't the runt he used to be and was nearly as tall as Ed! And that was no small feat, since Ed was now six foot three!
Size wasn't the only thing that had changed between them. Edd, for one, had gotten even smarter (if that were even possible) and his inventions broached on genius standards! Physically, Edd was much taller, not as tall as Ed, of course, and he still had his signature ‘sock head’. This always puzzled Eddy for he had seen what beautiful hair Double-D had to hide under that old cap of his. He guessed it would always remain a mystery.
"Oooh! It's pretty Double-D!" The joyful oaf, Ed, exclaimed as he bounded into the room. Eddy was literally shaken out of his reverie as Ed leaped onto his back. "It's so tall!" exclaimed Ed, oblivious to his position on Eddy's back. Eddy, however, was already seething, whether because of Ed's weight or having his train of thought wrecked, it was hard to tell.
"Get off of me, you big lummox!" shouted Eddy as he threw Ed off his back and began chasing him around the room.
Double-D giggled at their antics as he wiped off his wrench with a cloth. Some thing’s never change and he didn’t mind at all. Eddy’s temper had been surprisingly smothered over the years, from what, he did not know. But, there were still moments like this where Ed or even he would cause Eddy to explode, and it reminded him of their childhood. He knew Eddy would never harm either of them, but it did bring back memories of when Eddy would scheme with him for jawbreakers. Ah, sweet memories…
Double-D sighed, as much as he enjoyed watching them, he knew he’d better distract them before something got broken.
“Oh, Ed! Would you like to be the first to pull the lever?”
“I am the man for the job, Double-D!” Ed yelled, as he ran in Edd’s direction.
“Oh no you don’t, Lumpy! Get back here so I can pound ya!” Eddy screamed as he charged at Ed.
In a flash, two arms came out from behind and grabbed Eddy’s shoulders.
“Wha--?” Eddy spluttered as he was spun around to face…
…the two most gorgeous eyes he’d ever seen.
Eddy stood their gazing, hypnotized, into the gorgeous emerald gems. He had seen Edd’s eyes plenty of times before, but they never ceased to amaze him. It had become decidedly worse recently, because now, adding to his awe, was a warm stirring inside of his lower abdomen. It wasn’t unpleasant, but he knew this was not a feeling that should be dire tow toward his best friend.
Edd smiled gently, unaware of his friend‘s reaction. “Now Eddy, is it really necessary to quarrelh Edh Ed today? After all, I haven’t even gotten the opportunity to explain my invention to you yet.”
Eddy’s face immediately turned red. Dammit! How does he do that?!
Eddy pulled away from Double-D’s hands and pretended to watch Ed as he joyfully poked at the machine. “Fine, fine! Let’s just get on with this!”
Edd gave Eddy a pleased smile, which only caused him to blush even harder and avoid Double-D’s eyes.
“Well?! What are you waiting for?!” Eddy growled, annoyed at himself. ”I haven’t got all day!”
“Oh! Right! So” Do” Double-D said, as he scrambled over to where Ed was.
Inside, Edd was beaming. Over the past few years, he wasn’t sure how, but he had become an almost soothing power over Eddy‘s anger. It was inexplicable how quickly he was able to calm Eddy down! Still, that didn’t mean he wouldn’t use this skill to keep Eddy out of trouble! Lately, Eddy’s scams seem to be getting more and more out of control, so he’s been making his own scams for them to try!
He stood in front of his machine and cleared his throat. “Gentleman and gentleman, I present to you the solution to our problems! But first, let me ask you a question: What has alluded scientists study on the human psyche for decades? The ability to study desires beyond a subjects normal façade!” Sensing Ed and Eddy’s confused expressions, he continued. “In layman’s terms, A person’s inner self!”
“Aw, get on with it, sock head!” Eddy scoffed. “Did we come here for a scam or a speech? Get to the point already!”
Eddy really didn’t mind when Double-D showed off his latest invention. He actually thought it was quite cute. But, since his recent embarrassment, he had to have at least some semblance of his usual attitude. Besides, he loved when Double-D got that pouty look on his face when interrupted.
Loved? Cute? Where did that come from? Eddy thought. What’s wrong with me today?!.
Double-D rolled his eyes at his friends impatience. “The point, Eddy, is that with this machine we can find out what a person really desires. If used on the people in the cul-de-sac, we can find out what they truly want and come up with scams based on their desires.” He pointed at the machines nozzle. “A concentrated beam shoots forth from here that depletes a person’s natural façade. It allows, for a short period of time, to see a person’s inner persona!”
Eddy’s eyes lit up. “We’d make a killing! Just think of all the suckers we could scam! Double-D, you’re a genius!”
Edd blushed at receiving such a rare compliment. “It wasn’t too difficult. I just studied plenty of psychologists’ and philosophers’ theories on the human psyche.”
“Quit being so modest, sock head.” Eddy said as he investigated the device. “Who knew you could be so deliciously sneaky? I must have rubbed off on ya!”
Double-D rolled his eyes. Of course Eddy would only think of himself. Thank goodness he knew it was just his way or he would have been seriously offended.
“So, what do you call this thing Double-D?” Eddy asked while attempting to detach Ed from the lever.
Edd brightened. “Why, I call it ‘The Descartes factor’. I named it after the seventeenth century philosopher who…”
“Yeah, yeah, yeah, Double-D. I asked for a name, not a personal history. I get it already!” Eddy interrupted, still trying to detach Ed’s death grip on the lever.
Edd was about to scold Eddy for being so rude, but stopped. “Ed, what are you doing?”
“Ed is going to pull the lever, Double-D!” He replied while beginning to turn the lever.
“Ed! No, wait!” Edd shrieked, panicked. “It has to be tested first! It’s still extremely unstable!” Double-D ran toward Ed, right in the beam’s trajectory path.
Ed was already off in his own little world. “Ring around the rosy, Double-D!” Ed exclaimed, as he shook off Eddy and turned the lever.
A high humming noise was heard and Edd’s bedroom lights short-circuited. Glowing particles beads were radiating form the machine’s nozzle and before Edd could even blink, he was hit by a bright green beam. Edd was thrown across the room and hit the back of his head on his ant farm.
Eddy could only watch in horror as his friend slumped to the ground, unconscious. Eddy quickly snapped out of his reverie. “Ed! You idiot! Turn it off now!”
Ed quickly turned the l to to the off position. The beam died and the machine shut down, but the lights did not recover and neither had Double-D. Ed was confused. Why wasn’t Double-D moving? He knew Double-D’s machines always worked so why was Eddy so angry at him? He never heard Eddy yell at him like that before and he was immediately worried. What was wrong with Double-D?
Eddy ran over to Edd, his concern overriding his urge to attack Ed. He kneeled down next to Edd and checked for blood. He found none. Breathing a sigh of relief, he was about to turn Edd over to investigate his wound when he remembered something.
What was it Edd used to say about handling a head injury in first aid? Eddy tried to remember. He snapped his fingers. Of course! Double-D said never to move someone with head damage or it could cause irreparable damage!
Somehow, figuring this out didn’t make Eddy feel any better. He knew he had to call an ambulance and he’d hoped he’d never have to see his friend in a hospital. With a gentle stroke to Edd’s cheek he got up to use the phone. He picked up the receiver and dialed 911 and put the phone to his ear. All he heard was a dial tone.
What the…? He checked to see if the phone was connected properly. Finding that it was he attempted to dial the operator with no luck. How did the phones go dead? He finally took notice to the darkness of the room. He had been so worried about Edd, he hadn’t realized the power had went out. Damn that machine was powerful.
He turned to Ed who was still standing by Edd’s machine, looking worried. Eddy already knew he couldn’t blame Ed for what happened considering his state of mind, but maybe he can still do something. “Ed, listen to me carefully. The phone is dead and Double-D could be seriously hurt.” Eddy began. “I need you to go find someone in the neighborhood with a working phone and tell them to dial 911. You got that, monobrow?”
Ed nodded, eager to help. “I will be a knight in shining armor, Eddy!” And before Eddy could say anything, he ran out the door.
Eddy seriously considered going himself, but he wasn’t going to leave Double-D all alone. He just had to trust Ed. He went back and checked Double-D’s vitals. Finding them normal eft eft the room to get a cold rag for Edd’s head.
Eddy opened Edd’s linen closet in search of a wash rag. The entire closet was filled with color-coded and labeled towels and wash cloths. Eddy gaped. “Double-D’s parents must have some serious problems…” He grabbed the nearest green wash cloth, wetted it and left the bathroom.
He walked to Double-D’s door and heard movement inside. He immediately became angry. “ED!” Eddy yelled as he ran in the room. “I THOUGHT I TOLD YOU TO…to…” Eddy stopped in his tracks and stared. Double-D was standing in the middle of the room looking around as if disoriented.
The rag slipped from Eddy’s hand. “Double-D!” Eddy exclaimed as relief washed through him. “You’re okay!”
Double-D turned to him slowly and smiled. Eddy nearly swallowed his tongue in shock. He wasn’t sure if it was a trick of the light or not, but Double-D’s normally emerald eyes were…glowing.
“Hello Eddy.” Double-D purred. “I’ve missed you…”

Authors notes: I suppose you could call this a cliffhanger…. I hope no one finds the characters OOC, I’ve tried my best to make them perfect. Please R&R and constructive criticism is welcome too. Flames will be ignored and deleted. On a side note: Anyone who guesses which philosopher Double-D is referring to will get a cookie!
