I just wanted to remind everyone that this will be a slow progressing story, as I really want to show the characters growing up and into their feelings . I appreciate comments and critics and  I would love to know what y'all think of the story so far.

------------------------------------------------------

Eddward was just sitting in the sand watching Ed spinning Sarah around in circles. Rolf was busy cooking hot dogs for lunch ,while Sam and Chris were watching and waiting like begging dogs. Eddy was trying to flirt with Nazz while her friends giggled behind their hands. Kevin ,Nat and Justin were pushing and shoving each other around in the water seemingly having a blast. After a few minutes of torturing his baby sister Ed threw her into the water next to Jimmy who was laughing like an idiot. He sat down next to Double D and started chatting away.

"I can't believe your smaller than Jimmy. I mean your tiny but I didn't that you were that tiny. "

" I'm not smaller just thinner, after all I'm much taller than Jimmy. Honestly though I'm not even surprised. It seems every year I grow in height but everything else stays the same. "

" Yeah I guess you've got a point.Come on lets get in the water. "

Eddward nods and the two boys stand up . Eddwardbrushed the sand off his legs before he and Ed start walking  into the waves . When Eddward looks over at Kevin and his friends he comes to a stand still almost mesmerized by the sight. Kevin was turned slightly away from him and Edd was given a perfect view of his silhouette.The young athlete was stunning,his toned muscles glistening from the water and sunshine.

Oh...goodness...

Eddward couldn't help watching the way the other boys body moved as he splashed his friends. Double D was still staring when Ed looked over at him wondering what was taking him so long.The older boy noticed where he was looking and in a dual effort to bring him back to reality and keep anyone else from finding out , Ed picked Double D up and tossed him as far into the water as he could; which considering how little the boy weighed and how strong Ed was,was pretty far . Kevin ,Nat and Justin had seen Double fly past them and land in the water .Justin was staring at Ed in awe over how far he had thrown the other boy ,while Nat and Kevin just waited for the boy to come backup. They were starting to worry about how long the raven haired boy was taking to come up for air. Edd reemerged right before Kevin was going to jump in after him.The giant boy was smirking by the time his friend finally came up after locating his hat and insuring his hair was covered.

"ED!  How dare you! I almost lost my hat it took me and additional 32.6 seconds to locate it while under water!"

There were three sides to Eddward Vincent .The first was the sweet ,germaphobic ,obsessive compulsive, nerd who was kind of a pushover that everyone knew. The second was his sassy smart aleck side mostly reserved for Ed and Eddy ,but anyone who he felt comfortable with would see that side of him from time to time. The last side was the side of him that was so rare most people never knew it existed. It was what Ed had always called his evil dark side and the few people who had ever witnessed it were terrified of the gentle boy when he let it out...like right now.

Oh Shit! I'm Dead!

 "Eddy HELP! I pissed him off past the point of no return ! Its his evil dark side and I'm gonna die!"  

The larger boy took off running trying to hide behind Eddy but it was no use Double D had tackled him by the knees before he even got close. Ed was trying to escape in whatever way he could with complete failure when  his light weight friend started to tickle torture him.

"Your lucky I'm a pacifist and refuse to physically harm you! Instead I'm just going to tickle you till you pee!"

Eddy was laughing his ass off over the commotion and the other cul-de-sac kids were just waiting for the small genius to calm down as the incredibly rare outbursts never lasted long. The preteens that didn't know the group that well didn't know not to try to stop the slender boy . Nat was walking over about to try pulling the boy off his friend when Kevin stopped him.
