Craig's POV
Clyde and Token insisted we went to the new Cat Cafe after school. Honestly, I was not in the mood at all, I rather do something more productive with my time, like smoking a cig while walking home, or going to guitar practice. I had taken up guitar some weeks ago and fell in love with it since it helps me relax.
We ended up going anyway.
"Shit man, there are hot chicks all around us!" said Clyde, swooning over almost every waitress that happened to be near.
"Jeez, man, chill! keep them hormones down, dude!" Token answered.
"Ngh - GAH!" was all Tweek said.
I'm not gonna lie, the waitresses were pretty hot. I know I'm gay and all that, but I gotta admit I like big butts and thin waists. I'm just a simple guy with simple likes, even though I would prefer those physical characteristics on a guy.
As we were waiting for our order, I noticed Broflovski's gang entering the cafe and sitting at a table across from ours.
After this morning's "fight", I couldn't help but notice how attractive the ginger is. He's got a handsome face, pink lips and his skin is still not covered in acne as most teenagers; it looks so soft to touch. The cherry on top is that he is shorter than me. Short guys have always been my weakness.
I didn't realize I was staring at him while lost in my thoughts until his gaze met mine. I panicked a bit and just gave him a weak nod to say "hi" but didn't see if he answered back because Tweek grabbed my arm trying to get my attention; which he achieved.
"What's w-wrong Craig - ngh?!" asked Tweek with a concerned look.
"Nothing, I was just... forget it"
I couldn't take the ginger outta my mind for the rest of the afternoon.

Kyle's POV
Ken and I ended up going to Stark's Pond; we always went there. I needed to take this off my chest, and the blonde knew it.
"So..." Kenny said, trying not to push me to talk.
"I have a crush on Craig" I said bluntly avoiding his gaze.
"Damn Ky, I did not expect you would be so direct" He responded.
I just blushed and said nothing. Kenny knew about me being gay because he was the first one I told.
"Well... fuck. When did you find out about your feelings for that fucker- I mean Craig?" he asked me.
"Mhm... just some months ago. Something happened, and I never told anyone about it..."
I said as I started to tell him about the events that took place that night on the bus.
After about 20 minutes I ended my story. Kenny grabbed me by the wrist and pulled me into a hug. I couldn't help but to let out some tears.
"I can't believe you had to go through that shit..." He said. He was clearly affected and his face showed a mixture of anger and pity. "Why didn't you call me? You know I would've picked you up and taken you home"
"I don't know, I just didn't think something like that would ever happen to me" I responded while rubbing my eyes.
"If I had known about this earlier, my attitude towards Tucker would've been different... I mean, the dude saved your life! Now I get why you stood up for him earlier at the Cafe" Kenny stated. "I can't help but be grateful to him for dealing with that motherfucker"
"The thing is, I haven't even thanked him ever since that happened...I was too shocked that night. I literally just cried to sleep" I told the blonde. "I've tried to get to talk to him and tell him how grateful I am for saving me, but I'm just a big pussy. I canNOT get near him without blushing and getting all sweaty and nervous"
"Shit man... u in love" He said as he covered his mouth with his hand letting out a small chuckle. Both of us were calmer now. "My baby Ky fell hard for Tucker!" He pinched my cheek.
OUCH!
I smacked his head.
"I'm being serious, you know?" I told him.
"My bad, I was just kidding" Said Kenny still wearing that annoying smirk of his. "Anyway, I hope you don't mind if I ask you this but... apart from saving your life, what do you think made you fall for him?"
Kenny just LOVED gossip, and I knew I was feeding him what he wanted. But at the same time, I needed to tell someone about my feelings. I guess it's just a human thing right? We all like to share things we like, to feel supported or receive advice.
"Well, you see..." I let out a deep sigh and felt my cheeks burn red. I told him EVERYTHING I liked about Craig, from his voice, to his facial features, his body, his "i don't give a shit" attitude, and of course his masculine ways.
"Woah... you really have the hots for him don't you"
"You asshole"
We laughed extremely loudly. Luckily for us, we were alone.
"Thanks Ken" I told him after our laughs died out. "I was gonna explode soon if I didn't tell anyone about this".
"No worries man, I'll always have your back" The blonde replied. "Now... I don't wanna be a party pooper, but I think Stan should know about this as well..."
"WHAT, WHY?! NO" I said, almost shouting at Kenny. The only idea of it made me shiver. "You know he fucking hates Craig with all his might"
"I know dude, but I think what you said earlier at the cafe is fucking true.. you know, that thing about leaving old rivalries behind. Come to think of it, I wasn't even sure why I hated Craig and his gang in the first place. Should I even use the word 'hate'?. That must've started when we were like in the 3rd grade" Kenny said, his face lacking the playfulness it always had. He was being serious.
I just looked at him in awe.
"What I want to say is... You deserve to be happy, dude. I don't think that hiding your feelings from the world is gonna make you any good. Stan is your Super Best Friend, and he will support you no matter what, once he understands that. If loving Craig is what makes you happy, then go for it! I know it's easier said than done, but I'll be right beside you if you fall" As he finished, I couldn't help but let out some tears. Kenny was a great friend and had always been. I just wish I can repay him for all the support he's given me.
"Thank you dude, I really appreciate it" I told him as we hugged.
