Chapter Text
Double D looked at the jock as he left the classroom with his crew, not wanting anyone to notice his chagrin at being owned by a nerd. "Eddward 1, Kevin 0" the brainy teen smirked. He gave Kevin a quick look over and focused back on the rest of the day ahead planned in his schedule.
To a degree the smartest of the Eds was proud of his comeback and wrote down the notes on the bored as he thought about all the other outcomes the class could've ended but he was content with the triumph he had made.
It made life at school a little more exciting, playing with the lead football player and fantasy of almost every girls dreams. Double D had him stuck, in his own attempt to bring the mild-mannered boy down.
Kevin didn't respond to Double D as the lesson continued on. The longing to provoke the dork again, was the one part of the day that made it less crap filled. The pressure beneath his jeans made Kevin a bit more restless. He started drawing nude female characters within the margins of his notebook and praying for the day to get over with.
The bell rung as the class collected their stuff and left on cue. Kevin stayed a bit, his gang getting the message.
"See you at P.E. Double Dork," he whispered at the coy teen before picking up his backpack and swaggered out the door.
Double D packed his supplies in his bag and looked up at Kevin as he walked out and rolled his. eyes.
"Oh yes Kevin, you'll see me" he mumbled softly to himself as he stood up and grabbed his bag and walked to his locker accompanied by Ed and Eddy, grabbing his gym bag and walked to gym.
Double D threw his bag over his left shoulder and walked towards the entrance of the gym and put in his earphones while turning on the music to the jocks often ear-splitting shouts and chants. The skinny teen took a deep breath and counted in his head while trying to think of his one favorite physical activity, swimming. He did laps, dives and of course his form attracted much attention when he took to the water. He looked Kevin in the eyes every time he'd do something to annoy/or tease him. Edd was a fast moving swimmer which was why he made the team first among those eager to try out. He repeatedly gave his all while looking Kevin in his eyes multiple times tempting him to fall for his facade. Edd smirked to himself as he finished breathing heavily as water drops would roll down his pale skin.
Eddy laughed so much his face nearly looked beat red as the trio made their way to P.E. class. "Double D, I'd never thought I'd see the day! You really told Shovel Chin off good." The master scam artist clapped the lanky boy's shoulders despite the other's flattered embarrassment.
"It was better than when Captain Comet went face-to-face with the evil Lord Ziron!" Ed exclaimed only to be met with disinterested glares from his friends.
"Shut up Ed," Eddy said walking on to the gym.
While Double D did achieve a victory of sorts against their boyhood bully there was something impressive to the outspoken jock Edd did admire and often wished he himself exhibited. His nerves still didn't calm as he followed his friends into the locker room. Since their Middle School years, Double D's attitude towards athletics took on a more optimistic view although the dodge ball incident still conjured up unpleasant memories. P.E. nevertheless was a lion's den. He proceeded to get dressed among the rest of his peers all while having a sense of isolation, but he knew once out on the court the lively boisterous atmosphere would be all the same. He loved how it gave the Eds more time to socialize, if not so much the lewdness, and before he and his friends got to the courtyard, he excused himself to use the restroom and sped back through the corridor to the toilets. It was foolish and near cowardice, yet Double D let his body relieve itself.
