Alright, so this is chapter one, Its really short because it just the intro, you know, to bring in characters and all. Yeah, I'm no writer, but I'd like to contribute to my favorite fandom so Enjoy!

Edd held the note in his stiff hand, he'd been standing in the doorway for at least ten minutes.

"Camping?" he finally said as he read the note again. "I'm going to regret this..." Edd put down the note and took out his phone and searched in his contacts till he found the number he was looking for. He then pressed the call button.

"Hello?" came the soft familiar voice of Edd's new found friend.

"Hey, Ira." Edd said trying not to sound nervous. He hated it when his voice cracked.

"Oh! Hey dude! Did you get my note?" Ira said on the other end in a happy hopeful tone. She was sweet and was always looking out for Edd. She didn't particularly like Eddy, but she and Ed got along fine.

"Yes I did, but you could've just sent me a text or called me." Edd replied.

"I know, but you don't always reply to those, an' your parents always leave you those sticky notes, you respond to those as soon as you read em' so I thought it'd be easier to do that, an' since ya called me, it seems it worked!" the smug tone in Ira's voice was impossible to miss. Her grammar made Edd cringe.

"It appears so, but might I inquire the date and time of our departure?"

"Friday, at around five-thirty-ish, we're gonna be going up the mountain so pack warm clothes!" you could practically hear the smile in her voice. Naturally it rubbed off on Edd who smiled too.

"I will make certain I do so. Oh, will there be anyone else accompanying us tomorrow?" Edd said with a bit of worry etched in his tone.

"Its a public place Double D, there are bound to be other people there, I dunno if anyone we know are going."

Edd half sighed "Ok then, we best be readying ourselves since we leave at dawn."

"You betcha! See ya tomorrow cutie!" Ira's little comment made Edd blush, he hardly was ever complimented.

"Se La Vi, Ira, the morrow awaits" Edd could hear Ira giggle on the other end before the connection cut out. Tomorrow, better get packing then.

Before the light could reach the quiet cul-de-sack, Edd was placing the necessary items for the camping trip into the back of his truck. It was the car his parents bought him his second year of high school. He needed the transportation to get to school (walking took too long). After placing the tarp over the items and securing it, he got in the cab of the car and started its quiet engine. He then drove the mile over to Ira's house where she sat out front waiting.

"Right on time!" she exclaimed shoving her bag underneath the tarp. Then came around and opened the truck door.

"If there was a specific time." Edd smiled over at her.

"Yeah, yeah, I know I need to be more precise." She said rolling her eyes and hopping into the car. She was wearing a beanie with the word Candyland written across the front. It reminded Edd of the time they went to a party where he'd lost the only bet he ever made and had to sing a song in front of everyone. Luckily everybody was too drunk to remember anything from that night, everyone except Ira and himself.

Ira looked over and noticed Edd staring at her hat. A slow smile spread across her slight tan face. "Welcome to Candyland, I'll split your ass in two, so take me by my hand, lick it up, slide it down and satisfy my sweet tooth! Welcome to Candyland, you'll wanna fuck me twice, I'll be your gingerbread man, first time naughty, second time nice!" Ira sang the best/worst part of the song.

Edd blushed immediately as Ira sang the verse and shut the door.

"Must you bring up such awful memories?" He said starting the ignition.

"C'mon, Dude, you got a great voice! She said with a sly smile.

"Have, Ira, I have a great voice." Edd's blush deepened and was responded with another giggle from Ira.

"Whateves! Let's get going."

Edd pulled out of the neighborhood onto the main road and started the five hour trip to the camping grounds on the mountain.
