Summary:
Edd is issued a challenge, seduce Kevin before homecoming or loose his spot as swim captain.
Notes:
Another bet story? I know,it is a bit played out... But I like them and they make me happy. I decided to use the reverse characters because that is rarely done with these types of fics..
Reverse AU belongs to asphyxion... I also do not own Ed, Edd, and Eddy... I have no original ideas because I'm weeb trash!
Chapter 1: Let the games begin...
Chapter Text
There were a few things Eddward "Double D" Vincent could say for himself, one thing was that he was completely comfortable in his own skin and with his sexuality. Another thing he knew was that he would never back down from any wager. That was how the head of the Peach Creek swim team accepted the bet that Jimmy laid out for him.
Jimmy flicked a small ball of paper at him, "Double D, are you listening to me?" He smiled around his head gear, "I asked if you had anyone in mind to do to homecoming?"
"No," Edd's face scrunched a bit with confusion as to why his blonde team mate would ask. It was a known fact that Eddward was a bit of a player, he loved seducing straight boys and then dumping them when he got their virginity. "Did you have someone in mind? You know I can get anyone to go out with me."
Jimmy laughed, "Are you so sure about that? Well how about Kevin?" He nodded his head towards the boy sitting at the table with Sarah, they were both leaning over their Chemistry book in what looked like a serious conversation.
Edd contemplated that for a moment, he looked over at the teen for a moment before turning his attention back to Kevin. "He is cute." It wouldn't hurt to at least try to get into his pants. He grinned, "What is the wager? I know that if I get him to say yes I have the pleasure of deflowering him after the dance. But what is in it for you?"
"Well, you would step down at captain next year and give the title to me. You know, nothing too big." He had that sadistic glint in his eye.
Edd almost turned it down, sure he would still be the top of his class even if he stepped down as captain, but he needed this for a scholarship. But as he watched the nerd push up his glasses up his nose he knew, he could have the boy eating out of the palm of his hand. He grinned holding out his hand to the blonde, "It's a deal."
They shook on it and then got back to work on their lab project. Later on during lunch he followed behind the short redhead while he made his escape from the crowded lunch room. It seemed the boy was going to be taking his lunch to the library, he smiled, and he knew that the librarian always used the back office to sleep during the lunch period. That meant if there were no other students there he would be left all alone with the little dork.
He waited a few minutes after Kevin to enter the library, not wanting to give himself away that he was following him. In the hall at least there had been other students the throw him off, when he entered he was pleased to see they would, in fact, be alone! He sauntered up to the table the boy was at, surrounded by open books, "Kevin, right?" He sat down across from him, turning up the wattage in his smile. "I've seen you in a few of my classes, I wondered why we have never talked."
The boy looked up shocked at the fact someone was speaking to him. "I, uh, y-yes, I'm Kevin." He looked uncertain of Edd motives, almost hesitant to be speaking to him. "We have talked before, I think the last thing you said to me was, 'Get out of my way you little twink.' I may be wrong on the name you called me, but it was eighth grade so there have been a few years between that event and now."
Edd frowned, he could not recall that, "Well, I was a bit of a jerk back then." His eyes widened when the nerd scoffed at him, "What? A man cannot change his ways in three years?" He leaned back in the chair, watching the other boys face intently.
"I feel someone cannot change so immensely in only three short years. It would take a huge event, most likely traumatizing, to change you so much." He narrowed his eyes, "What do you want from me? You are the top of the class, so tutoring is out of the question. You must want something."
"You got me, I was talking to my friend Jimmy," He tried to look embarrassed, "He is dating Sarah, your chemistry partner, he feels that we would benefit from a change of partners. You see, he and Sarah have been going through a rough patch and Jimmy wants to work it out with her before homecoming. You know, normal couple stuff. I promise, I will be the perfect gentleman. I won't even try to feel you up, pumpkin." He grinned when the other teen flinched at the nickname.
"Don't call me that," He snapped, "If it is going to benefit Sarah, then I think I can make the sacrifice and suffer through your company for the next few weeks. But I don't want any funny business. One wrong move and you are back with Jimmy. I don't need my grade to suffer because you can't keep it in your pants."
"Scouts honor." He held up two fingers in a mock salute, "Since we will be working so closely over the next few weeks and we live so near each other, why don't we use that to our advantage to get ahead? Let's say you wait around until after my swim practice and I'll drive you home? Then we can compare notes to be sure we are on the same page?" He wanted to make sure Kevin didn't have any time to rethink this agreement, he was going to win this, and he needed to win this. If that meant seducing the little dork through academics, he would try his damnedest to. Being alone at his place with the kid will give him a huge head start to hid goal, because he was sure he knew exactly how to get under his little pumpkins skin.
"I guess that would be agreeable, I will meet you near your call when your practice is done." Kevin said, his tone was dismissive, but that didn't stop Edd from grinning like a fool as he left the redhead alone, anticipating the end of his school day.
