Ed woke up in the morning to the sound of the police band talking about the death of a young woman. He got up, got dressed, and walked to school. He was glad he didnt run into Chuck on his way there. Ed spotted Charley over by his locker and ran over to him. "Hey Brewster! Amy still mad at ya?" Ed giggled. "Oh shut up Evil Im not in the mood." Ed frowned,got his books from his locker and headed to first period. The morning went extremely slow for Ed, mostly because he was dreading what was to befall him that afternoon. There were days when Chuck showed no mercy. Finally the bell rang meaning lunch. At the sound of the bell, Ed took off for the cafeteria. He saw that Charlie was trying to study and the last thing he wanted was to get yelled at again, so Ed went over and sat at a table by himself.He saw Amy come in and sit by Charlie. "Man,shes mad at him, but still wants to sit by him." Ed thought and sighed. He wished someone would feel that way about him as he looked at the empty seat across from him.
He looked up at the TV and saw a picture of the beautiful girl he had seen the night before. He got up to take a closer look. " She was a known prostitute." The newsman reported. "Owe thats why she was so nice to me," Ed thought.He walked up beside Charley, who seemed to be interested in the story as well. "Hey Charlie. You know what I heard on the police band last night? That wasnt the only murder. The second in two days and get this, both of em had their heads chopped off," Ed laughed. "Can you believe it?" "You're sick," Charley looked disgustedly at Ed laughing. Neither of them seemed to notice Amy behind them trying to get Chaley's attention. Amy went over to the food line and grabbed a burger off a kid's plate. "Charley?" Charley turned around just to get a burger in the face. Ed couldn't control himself, he laughed out loud. "Oh, you're so cool, Brewster! I cant stand it." Ed admired the burger on Charley's face. "Well if you'll excuse me I have to go get this off of my face." Charley headed to the boy's room with Ed following him."Um, I dont think I need any help Evil. God, you're like my shadow!" Charley wiped the burger off his face and headed out. Ed stayed in and wiped the tears from his eyes. "Ah that was hilarious!" Ed said, not knowing that someeone was in there with him. Then he thought about that girl again. "Ugh right when a girl smiles at me." All of a sudden he heard a toilet flush and Chuck stepped out of the stall. "Oh, no." Ed thought as he tried to run out. Chuck stepped in his way and grabbed him by the hair. " Hey Eddie. You thinking about a girl?" Ed shook his head. "Oh yes you were. Smiled at ya, huh? What was she, blind?" Ed started shaking, he never knew what Chuck would do to him. Chuck tugged on Ed's hair. Ed wanted to cry. "C'mon Chuck, let me go." Chuck ran his hands down Ed's face. "Awe, is someone gonna cry? Said Chuck still holding Ed by his hair. Ed's mind raced he wasnt sure what to do. At that moment, Butch, another big football player, came into the boys room. "Hey Chuck! How's it hangin?" Chuck looked back to talk to him and Ed snapped and let Chuck have it right in the stomach. At that instant, Ed took off out of the bathroom and ran home.
That night, Ed lied on his bed thinking about had happned and how deep of trouble he was going to be in the next day. Ed got up and went over to his mirror. He put on a sleeveless black shirt and thought about how he had hit Chuck like that. He smiled, but also thought about how weird it was that so many people had ben getting murdered lately. He looked out his window and saw another beautiful girl walking down the street towards Charley's street. "Wow, someone's lucky." He thought..
