Chapter 1

The beginning of summer break, the cul-de-sac kids ... teens have been peacefully living their lives since the Ed’s had given up trying to scam them for money, without Double-Dee; Eddy’s plans just never had the success they used to, not too mention Ed was of little help when he was around. If Ed wasn’t working at his uncles garage, he had May tagging along, cramping Eddy’s style. Double-Dee is away having focused a bit more on himself, managed to get accepted to a high-end college in the city, forgoing the rest of high school.

Sarah and Jimmy are somewhat more a thing and she because of Ed, has a somewhat friendship with Lee, which worries Jimmy, Nazz and Kevin have been dating, and Jonny, he still hasn’t forgiven Eddy for what happened to Plank during the camping incident, where it took the combined forces of the cul-de-sacs two power houses; Rolf and Ed to keep him from doing unspeakable things to Eddy, which finally prompted his parents to seek help with the kid after he tried to burn down Eddy’s house. Rolf is still Rolf, but he’s gotten America down pretty good.

Kevin is throwing a party for the beginning of summer break where everybody is invited, even Eddy, seeing as he crashes it, anyway. Most of his antics had been somewhat scams to be popular, since the other two left to their devices were welcomed more than he was. Kevin had warmed up to Ed in shop class.

“Hey Eddy, don’t be a dork this time,” he tossed him a beer from his dads fridge.

“Duh, Kevin,” he popped the cap off, taking a swig.

“Hello Three-haired Ed-boy, want to join me in some old country party shenanigans,” Rolf greeted.

“Eh ... maybe later, Rolf,” Eddy walked off.

Over on the couch Sarah and Lee are chatting. Jimmy is hanging with Jonny out of fear of Marie and May.

“So what?! Plank used to say that girls were nothing but trouble anyway. The nicest girl here is Nazz, and she’s with Kevin.”

“I think I might be gay, Jonny,” Jimmy whispered.

“Are you sure? Maybe hanging out with Sarah all the time is a bad impression ... she’s kinda a bitch.”

“She’s not that bad.”

“Hey May! Go get me another beer,” Lee yelled. “May! Hurry your ass up!”

“I could use one, too,” Sarah smiled. “Jimmy! Beer!” Her voice just over the music playing.

“Coming, Sarah,” Jimmy replied.

“See, I told ya,” Jonny laughed.

Jimmy’s head knocked in to Mays at the fridge, “Ow. My head,” he cried.

“Watch it, Fairy Dutch,” she shoved him, sending him flying to the couch.

“Thank you Jimmy,” Sarah cooed.

“Here’s your beer, bitch,” May dropped the bottle in Lee’s lap and walked off.

“It’s about time.”

“Move along Jimmy, we’re having girl talk, okay?”

“Okay, Sarah,” he smiled and walked off.

Once he was out of ear shot, Sarah turned to Lee; “I try not to boss him around too much, I think I’m getting a crush on him.”

“You gotta learn how to take care of a man, before you can be with a man. Plus a man also has to know his place, ya know,” Lee explained.

“I think I get it.”

Meanwhile Kevin is chatting up Nazz in the dining room, where Jonny is chasing Eddy around the table with a broken beer bottle, while Marie laughs in the corner.

“Help,” Eddy screams.

“Get back here, you dick!”

“C’mon Jonny, I thought we were all friends now?! Kevin!”

“No way man,” Kevin replied. “So anyway, Babe, I need help with something in my bedroom, care to give me a hand?”

“Sure Kev, I’ll help you.”

“Awesome, it’s real important.”

“Oooooh ... Kevin, Marie giggled.

“Why are you laughing like that, he just needs help.”

Marie just gave a sly grin, and Nazz caught on, pretty quick.

“Kev,” sighed. “I’m not doing that.”

“But Babe, c’mon, I’m tired of waiting,” he begged.

“Go help yourself, Kevin,” she marched off.

“Harsh dude, how long have yall been dating,” Marie wondered.

“Like since middle school. She acts like getting laid is the worst thing ever!”

“So you’ve been trying to fuck? I get it, we’ve been trying to get the Ed’s to come around forever, especially since May had been bragging about her and Ed getting it on in that van you two fixed up from the junkyard.”

“Dang, I’m just tired of waiting. I’m getting another beer,” Kevin starts to walk off.

“Hey wait,” she reaches for him. “I’m just as hot as she is, why don’t we hook up?”

“You’re pulling my leg,” he eyed her.

“I’m serious! I might even talk Lee in to it, if you don’t mind her.”

“Yeah ... I guess that’s cool. Two for one, huh?”

“Lemme go talk to her and I’ll get you, okay?”

“Sure,” he walked off.”

“Oh yeah, this is gonna be sweet,” she laughed to the living room.
