As We Grow. (KevEdd)

Chapter 3-Studying

As Eddy and Double D are walking home, the shorter boy is being very fidgety. He keeps stopping and shuffling his feet before sighing and continuing their walk. He looks up at Eddward and starts getting a posy look on his face.

"Hey sockhead your not really gonna tattle to my pops are ya? "

"Well Eddy, that depends. Will you be coming to my house for a study session or will you just try to cheat to pass?"

The older boy grumbles a bit before replying.

"..... I'll come study....."

"Good, I've already let your father know that you will be at my house. "

"What! How did you know I was gonna come over? And what exactly did you tell him? "

The taller boy stops and looks down at his angry counterpart. Eddy looks up at him and notices the gentle gap toothed smile on his friends face.

"Eddy, I knew because even if you are rather lazy you are not a bad person at heart. You wouldn't try to cheat from anyone but me, and the only reason you try to cheat off me is because we are friends and I have always allowed you to do so. Also I only told your father that you were coming over to study for a test, I didn't tell him that even though school has only been in session for a little over a month your failing every class but P.E. "

"Thanks man. "

The two boys finally make it to Eddward's home. As they get inside Eddy is reminded for the hundredth time to remove his shoes before stepping on the carpet.

"Go sit down at the dining room table while I go get my text books from last year. Your are welcome to get yourself some refreshments from the refrigerator if you are thirsty. "

Eddward goes up the stairs while Eddy makes his walk to the fridge.

*mumbles "Juice...water...tea?....."*sigh "Ok so no soda... Umm... guess I'll just grab juice."

Eddy is sitting at the table playing on his phone when Double D gets downstairs. The ravenete looks at him a bit crossly before setting the books down on the table.

"Are you ready to start? "

"Yeah I guess. .. hey why do you need those books from last year? "

"These will cover the same subject that we are going to study, but since they are not written for public school they word the information differently, so you may be able to understand better."

"Oh...ok."

Why does sock head even have books that ain't for our school ?

The boys spend the next two hours going over anything that Eddy doesn't know or understand in his math class. In between checking Eddy's work and explaining how to solve the problems Eddward finishes his own studying and begins to cook dinner.

"Eddy? "

"Yeah sockhead? "

"Will you be staying for dinner tonight? "

"Nah.My moms making burgers, and I'm not passing that up. Why? Do you want me to stay? "

"No you don't have to ,but I needed to know how much food to cook. I need to call Ed to know if he is eating dinner with me or just wants to snack here before going home. If you will excuse me a moment."

"Actually I'm gonna head home for tonight is that ok? "

"Yes that's fine you did catch up quite a bit today. Let me walk you out. "

Both boys head to the door, Eddy stops to put his shoes back on and adjusts his shirt before opening the door. As soon as he opens it a hand comes down and knocks on his head.
