Loser 😍🦶(Cola losers fanfic) (Edd x Eduardo)

4- Painting

Eduardo woke up and checked the clock, it was 4 am. He got up and got ready while the sky was still dark. Normally him and his friends would wake up at 6,7 or even 8 AM, so Mark and Jon were still in bed, sleeping peacefully. Eduardo did his routine as usual and made the breakfast for them like he always did and then got an idea...

When he finished eating, he put something else in his big bag, grabbed it,walked to Edd's house and knocked his door, nothing happened

The man knocked it harder, still nothing, until he heard some foot steps and the door finally opened

-Eduardo.... It's 4 in the morning....- Edd yawned exhausted, still in his Pajamas

-Well, you said I could go to your house anytime I wanted to paint- The Hispanic said while slightly smirking-

-Damn it... This is what happens to me for... For not being specific. Alright get in...-

Eduardo kept his same expression and took out the paper bag he put in some minutes ago with his other stuff
-I am sorry for waking you up so early, anyways, I brought you something that you may like-

The sleepy guy picked the bag and opened it, taking out a styrofoam container and a cola bottle, thing that made him excited.

-Aww! You shouldn't have done this for me!- he opened the bottle and drank from it, but instead of enjoying the taste, Edd started choking with it by the surprising flavour, when he stopped, he noticed something weird in the tag of the bottle, there was paint in it. He scratched it out, realising that under the paint, it said "diet " Well, he should have suspected it by the gray colour of the plastic.

The mad boy looked at his neighbour, he was chuckling and that didn't make him feel better

-Why did you do this?! I thought we were in good terms now!-

Eduardo stopped laughing realising Edd's disappointed face. In all this time, he was missing the pranks and competences between them but now... He wasn't satisfied by what he thought it would be a nice idea some minutes ago.

-I am sorry.- he replied embarrassed

-I thought we could have a new start, I did a lot just for us to don't be in troubles again, why can't you do the same to me? I invited you to paint with me and you come here at 4 AM, making me drink something I don't even like and giving me a mysterious container that probably has a shit inside or something!-

Edd sat down on the sofa, staring at the floor with a serious face, trying to figure out why did he even think somebody like Eduardo would be nice back at him.

Eduardo noticed this and took a long breath.
-Actually... There is eggs with potatoes inside. I made you the breakfast. Open it and you'll see-

-Mhm, surely you want me to open that thing so a fake spider or something like that gets on me. Open it by yourself if you aren't lying!-

-Fine.-

Eduardo opened the container, revealing that indeed, there was some eggs and potatoes in there, they looked really good but Edd still didn't trust

-Alright. They are eggs. But how am I sure you didn't put laxative , poison or...-

The man took a piece of the eggs and ate it.

- Do you see me shitting myself now?-

The Hispanic softly pushed the container to the other man and continued

-Look, I am sorry about the cola incident. I swear it was the only joke I wanted to do to you. I didn't come here at 4 AM just to annoy you. I wanted to come here as soon as possible, I also didn't want that Mark or Jon interrupted me. Yeah, it was funny seeing you sleepy with your pajamas still on, but I didn't think you could get annoyed by that. I simply didn't plan all of this well enough.-

-Okay...- Edd awkwardly went for a fork and ate the eggs, being surprised by how good they tasted

-You liked them, isn't it?- Eduardo slightly smiled

The British nodded and kept eating them

An awkward silence got in the room, it was very early so everything was quiet, The sound of Edd's bites was the only sound that could be heard in there

-Maybe I should buy you another cola.- Eduardo said breaking the silence

-Don't worry about it, I have more in the fridge. I make sure to never run out of colas or it would be the end for me...-

Edd quickly finished the breakfast

-Anyways, we had to paint something right? I'll go for my paints and brushes... And wear something else. The guy opened the door of his room, making a cat get out of the door quickly while it cried loudly

-Sorry Ringo, I didn't notice I let you trapped-

The cat fastly walked to the kitchen and ate the kibbles from a little plate in the kitchen

-Don't mind her, she won't do nothing to you, anyways I'll be back in a second- Edd mentioned as he entered the room.

Eduardo simply stared at the ceiling and relaxed on the sofa for a while, waiting until he heard a noise

-meow!-

He looked down and saw the little cat looking at him

-I really don't know how to interact with cats- He thought and ignored the cat

-meow!- The cat repeated

-what?-

The cat jumped to the sofa next to him but he just stared at it

-whatever, just letting you know I am a dog person.-
Eduardo kept looking at the ceiling until he noticed something warm in his lap, yeah, it was Ringo.

-God, I just washed my pants!-

Of course Ringo didn't react and just rested in there

-Should I...?- Eduardo slowly moves his hand down to the cat, and when he almost reached the fur, Ringo quickly scratched and bit his hand, running away

-W-WHAT?!- The man was surprised, the cat seemed friendly.

-Alright I am here! Let's go!- Edd exclaimed while wearing some old clothes and holding his materials.

After some minutes, they were outside in the dark garden painting with some lights turned on, Eduardo decided to do some roses and bushes but Edd wasn't sure yet.
-hmmm...-
Edd looked at Eduardo and realised what was he painting.

-Wow... You really know what you are doing.-

-I know- he smiled with his lips

Edd stayed quiet, looking at him painting until he noticed his hand

-What you got there?- the British asked

The man took Eduardo's hand, the action was so unpredictable that the Hispanic just froze without saying anything. Meanwhile, Edd noticed it was just some scrapes that Ringo caused and by seeing the reaction of his neighbour, he dropped his hand

-I guess Ringo got jealous, hahah. Does it hurt?-

The man denied with his head and kept painting without saying any word, it seemed that the interaction intimidated him, but the British man got an idea to make him feel better.

Again, there was silence for hours, Edd didn't know what to think about it. Was Eduardo happy? Was this awkward? How to know about it?
Suddenly, the sky turned pinkish; It was the sunrise, it looked beautiful from Edd's garden, both men were amazed by the view:
