Thank you!” Eddy rushed having heard Edd’s voice. “Eddy…” his voice was so weak, but he was able to make it sound panicked. It showed no signs of subsiding, gurgling and ready to make it’s journey venturing of to its destination. How were his hands ice when the sun was shining. Edd wrapped the jacket tighter around his shivering body. Now Edd could hardly stand, leaning against the car, waiting for Eddy to pay the cab driver. The site of their apartment was heaven in Edd’s eyes.
They were already talking about why they should fire him. Was she angry? Yes, she and the nurse had to take care of a teacher who came into work to pass around germs. As his stomach started churning even more Edd’s students horrified disgusted faces haunted his mind.Īnd the principal. Eddy also opened the window to the let the fresh air take the filthy smell out from the car. He closed his eyes to take his mind off the moving car. Edd touched Eddy’s knee, practically gripping it. That felt like hours.Įddy rubbed his hand along Edd’s back.
Edd used Eddy’s thigh as a pillow gently grooming his hand through his hair. Edd grasped his stomach praying to anyone who could hear that everything to stay down.Įddy gently descended his husband to lay down on his side. It was evident by the fermenting smell in the car that this taxi had a history of car sickness.
The driver was a middle aged man who looked him over. When did he ever ride in one? It’s too bad Edd had to experience it feeling this way and constantly on edge that the most dreadful thing may happen.Įddy opened the door for him, letting Edd slide in first. His stomach started making those gurgling noises as the fresh breeze hit Edd’s face. Alliston called out from her office.Īll the teachers present in the office said goodbye to him, even saying they’ll miss him. “Let’s take our chances.”Īnd they exited the room, Eddy arm comfortingly around Eddy’s waist as they left the office, Come on,” With that he stood on his toes to kiss Edd on his forehead.
“I think taxi drivers are used to that kind of thing. Eddy nursing him and answering any of his requests. Suddenly, he liked the idea of being sick. He pressed a hand to his stomach.Įddy’s eyes never shamed him, instead looked at him in half pity, but pure love overpowering them making Edd feel so lucky. “Taxi’s are too expensive to regurgitate inside of,” Edd answered, guiltily looking away from Eddy. Edd’s fragile state was breaking Eddy further. “Why not?” Eddy took his hand away from the door. I don’t believe that’s such a good idea.” “I got us a taxi,” Eddy answered, taking Edd’s satchel for him.Įdd’s eyes skyrocketed briefly drawing back as Eddy’s hand fell on the door. “H-How are we getting home?” Edd asked upon being lifted to his face. Then Eddy gently lifted up his hat to feel Edd's forehead. “Trust me, sockhead, you’re way more important then having people harass me over things I’m not in charge of.” That statement made Edd’s heart feel all warm inside. “You should be at work?” Edd said brokenly looking away from Eddy.Įddy touched his cheek making the man look at him. They enjoyed the solitude of the little room as distant voices conversed with one another in the main office.

Even though the lights were turned off in the little room it felt as if thousands of stage lights used for Broadway shows beaming in his eyes.
Feeling himself being jostled awake, Edd opened his eyes.
