Edd's POV

Winter in Peach Creek is approaching. Walking outside I am greeted both by the brisk November breeze and Kevin parked in my driveway.

"Good morning Kevin." I say, gently tossing my bag to the back seat.

"Mornin' Dork did you sleep well?" Kevin says, offering a gentle smile.

"I cannot complain, I got to bed at a reasonable time, for once." 

"I really wish you didn't push yourself so hard Edd. You are wearing yourself thin and we aren't even through a semester yet." Kevin says reaching over the counsel to hold my hand.

"I am glad you care so much. My parents on the other hand would rather me die from exhaustion than give up my rigorous academics." I say, mostly serious. In fact my parents would probably have an Aneurysm if I even suggested having an easy senior year. Both alumni's of Stanford, they instilled in me that hard work is the only way to succeed in life. 

"I wish I knew what you were thinking about." Kevin says, taking note of me spacing out.

"Oh, I am just daydreaming." I mumble, watching the leaf barren trees pass by.

"Do you promise to communicate with me? Even if you think it's stupid, I will always be here to listen Edd." Kevin squeezes my hand as he speaks, reassuring me that everything will be alright.

"Promise."

Kevin's POV

Whenever I am away from Edd, times seems to stand still. As cliche and moronic as it sounds, I cannot bare being away from him. Whenever he is with me, I feel compelled to do the right thing and strive to be better.

"Hey Kev." A somewhat distant voice, whispers to me. Quickly I turn around to see who is interrupting my thoughts of Edd.

"Oh, hey man." I retort back casually to the now familiar face that I recognize as Johnny. 

"So I hear that you and Double-Dee are together now." Johnny says with a somewhat uneasy smile.

"Yep, we have been together for a little over a month now." 

"Well tell me, have you gotten very far with him."

"Johnny, you are walking a very fine line right now. Edd isn't like that, drop it." I say, gritting my teeth, controlling my anger the  best I can.

"What. I was just curious what reasoning you had behind dating a loser like him." Johnny practically spits the words at me. Without a second thought or hesitation my fists go flying and strike Johnny square in the face. 

"Don't you ever talk about my dork that way, you worthless piece of shit." Before I even have time to take a breath to calm myself, I feel my teachers hand on my shoulder.

 "Shit." I murmur.

Edd's POV

"Kevin, are you okay." I whisper, gently laying my head on his shoulder.

"I just lost it I guess." 

"I heard it was for a noble cause. Thank you for always protecting me." My breath still heavy, I pull him closer.

"I will never stop fighting for us." 

"Neither will I. Let's just keep the casualties to a minimal." I say jokingly, releasing all tension from my body. 

"I love you, Edd." 

"I love you too." I say smiling, knowing that this is the first time we said 'love'. Without another word Kevin puts his lips to mine, and like electricity, my body is instantly filled with warmth. There will be plenty more memories, and moments that Kevin and I will share. I just hope that I remember this cool November day the rest of my life.
