Note from Machi: Just wanted to write some quick little Kevedd bits, so here's a series of cute situations that are totally unrelated to any particular story line, but relate to each letter of the alphabet. So if you're in the mood for reading twenty-six mini-stories of one of my favorite ships, then you're in for a treat!

"We will begin this semester by reading The Crucible and The Scarlet Letter," the teacher announced in the front of the classroom. "To give a little information, The Crucible does involve suspicions of witch craft and all that glory."

It wasn't that Kevin hated school, it was just that learning never caught his attention and he never could hold an interest for a subject for longer than ten seconds, and of all the subjects, English had to be one of the worst. Perhaps that was why he never sat in the front in any of his classes and why in English he especially sat in the far back against the wall.

On the other hand, Edd was different. He enjoyed learning and he wasn't sure if there was any other place he would consider as a safe haven as much as he considered his classrooms to be. That was why in all of his classes he sat in the front.

The teacher paced across the front of the classroom as she addressed her students, making eye contact with those listening and those dazing off to make sure that everyone was involved in the discussion. "So let me as you this," she stopped in the middle. "How many of you have freckles?"

Some hands scattered around the room held their hands up. Kevin was one who should have rose his hand as well, but he never held his hand up in class, even if it was to participate in activities such as this one where you didn't have to say the answer out loud.

"Okay, now how about scars? Moles?" The teacher continued and a few more hands rose in the air, and a few already raising started raising even higher as they admitted to have more than just one she asked. "Birthmarks?"

After the mention of that last one, Kevin saw from where he was sitting, a hand raise in the front row. He sat up straight in his chair as he thought to himself, Edd has a birthmark?

Right there, in the back of the classroom, his mind began to wander into places it shouldn't have. It walked circles around Edd, observing with close attention around those delicate fingers and gap toothed smile. When it couldn't recall any birthmark from his usually appearance, his mind began to think of that bare area on his body where his neck met his shoulder, and then it crept under his shirt and explored each space on his skin until it was all over Edd, enveloping him in complete possession and imagining just where, oh where, could that birthmark be. On his chest? On his side where each rib could be felt? Right below his hip where you had to tug the band of his pants to reveal..?

"Witches, all of you, would be considered witches." Their teacher playfully teased her students as she wagged a finger at all those who rose their hands. "But that's The Crucible. Now for The Scarlet Letter, that's the one everyone knows where our main protagonist is forced to wear a red A on her clothing." Now the teacher was looking for a student to answer her next question. "Do any of you actually know what that A stood for?"

Of course, Edd was the first to raise his hand for her question. The teacher chose him and he immediately answered, "Adultery."

A hand in the very back suddenly shot up. The teacher rose an eyebrow. "Yes, Kevin? Is there anything I can do for you?"

"Can I... Use the restroom?"
