Edd's POV
Auld Lang Syne--It's simple translation from Scottish is, "the gold old times". It is a sense of renewal and appreciation for times past within the last year.
Although Kevin and I didn't get together until October, the happiness he has brought into my life in the past few months could last me a lifetime. Never have I felt such a deep connection with another human being. Even though I have been friends with Eddy and Ed since childhood, they always seemed to be on the am radio, while I was on the fm--Kevin has broken through this barrier on all fronts.
"Hey Dork, it's almost midnight." I hear Kevin say behind me.
"I'm coming," I say taking one last glance of the universe, before the new year comes.
As the ten second countdown, until the new year Kevin's eyes glisten in the starlight. Something can be said about his eyes, every time I stare into them I get lost between the various shades of green. When he is angry they appear to get darker, whereas in moments like this they are a perfect shade of peridot.
"I love you Edd."
"I love you Kevin." As the words slip out of my mouth, the familiar sound of the ball dropping hits my ears. Instantly Kevin's lips are encapsulating mine in a kiss. My heart stops as usual, I wonder to myself if the electricity that runs through me whenever he touches me will ever end.
Kevin's POV
Pulling my lips away from Edd I can tell his mind is elsewhere.
"What are you thinking about?" I ask wishing I could just read his perfect, genius mind.
"Nothing. Everything. I don't know." He mumbles to himself, clearly wrapped up in his own thoughts.
"I wish I could just know what you are thinking 24/7."
"I am afraid if you heard everything I think, you wouldn't be dating me." Edd muses, pushing a piece of hair behind his ear.
"Trust me everything about you draws me in.From your slender face, and perfectly round nose," Tracing his delicate features, I continue. "Most importantly your marvelous, dorky brain and personality." Instantly, Edd's face flushes to a deep tomato color.
"Well if you must know what I am thinking. I am questioning how we ever came to be, people like you and I don't typically belong together. Everything that I have come to love about you, are usually the things that draw me away from others."
"I can understand that feeling."
Looking down, Edd continues. "Can you promise me one thing Kevin?"
"Anything."
"If there ever comes a day where you no longer love me will you tell me?"
"That won't," Before I can finish Edd interrupts me.
"Promise me."
"I promise. Let's not talk about such crazy things though Dork, I won't ever stop loving you." As I finish speaking I take note of the tears that are brimming in his eyes. I can't help but wonder to myself what brought all of this emotion and worriedness out of Edd. Whatever the reason is I hope it doesn't surface for again, I don't think I can handle seeing my Dork upset.
