Because I Love You

Chapter 5

Kenny's pov

"What the fuck is wrong with you!" I yell at Cartman

He shrugs his shoulders and walks away. My hands ball up as I watch the fatass walk and slightly shake the ground. I turn away from Stan and Kyle. A few minutes later so feel a hand on my shoulder and I turn my head. Kyle is standing behind me with a small smile.

"We'll help you search for him." He says

Stan walks beside Kyle and we begin to walk around calling his name out. We look in alleyways and all the parks he could be at. When we come up empty I slump against a tree and sigh.
Stan and Kyle are standing in front if me with worries expression written in their faces. I stay there for a few minutes until a thought comes to my mind.

"I know where he is!" I say

I quickly take off running leaving them behind me trying to catch up. My legs begin to hurt from running so fast but I gotta keep going until I'm by Butters' side.
When I see Butters' old house I start to slow down to a jog. Once I'm in front of the house I can see the front door opened. I stand there wondering if I should go inside and look for Butters. Then I can hear Stan and Kyle stopping and catching their breath.
Slolwy I take a step a inside through the door and look around. My eyebrows knit together out of concern for my Buttercup. Stan and Kyle slowly follow me up the stairs to Butters' bedroom. I softly push the door open and I see Butters sitting in front of his closet with a hello kitty plushie in his arms.
I take soft and slow footsteps so I don't freak him out. I reach him and slowly reach my hand and softly rest it on his shoulder.
I hear Stan and Kyle gasp as they look inside the closet. I sit down next to Butters and that's when he suddenly turns around and buries his face in my shirt. I wrap my arms around him and hold him. I turn my head to see Stan and Kyle standing in the doorway.

"Go, I''ll take care of him." I mouth towards them

They look at each other and take a few seconds to walk away. I can feel Butters tightening his grip on my shirt and I give him a slight squeeze to let him know I'm here for him.

"Why? Kenny why them?" He asks

"I don't know why." I say" But I'll tell you this."

He pulls back his head and look at me with tears in his eyes. I gently place my hand on his cheek ans wipe away all the fallen tears. He softly nuzzles against my palm.

"They wouldn't want you to be upset but move on and be happy." I say this with a slight smile.

"But I can't." He says" It hurts to much."

I quickly pull him back against my chest and begun to rock while humming a tune. I feel him relaxing against my chest and I can hear a slight snore after about an hour of him crying. I softly pick him up and walk out of the house.
While walking down the street I glance down at him. His eyebrows are knitted together but he has a slight smile upon his lips. A breeze hits him and he shivers. He begins to try and get closer to me which makes me chuckle. I get him as close as I can to my body.

I'll always be by your side no matter what
