Pedals won't stay tight...

So I got my Nimbus X Street ISIS a few days ago, but the pedals keep
coming slightly loose and make a clicking sound. Everything is on its
proper side from what the stickers say, but after thinking about it, it
seems that maybe something got mis-labeled. What I mean is... when the
wheel rotates forward (clockwise from the right side), the right pedal
will spin counterclockwise (relative to the crank), which is the way to
loosen it. Could someone please straighten this out for me? I don't get
the physics behind it at all.

Side note- It came with aluminum cranks, and the pedals are scraping
the outside layer off and slowly digging further into the cranks as I
keep having to tighten them. Maybe it's just soft aluminum and I need
new cranks already, but I've only been riding back and forth in my yard
and down the street, no jumping or anything to really stress it. Does
anybody else's pedals do this to their cranks?
