South Park Butters X Kenny

22

The next day, Thursday.
I haven't been able to think straight since yesterday. I barely slept, but thankfully I finally dozed off around 4 am last night so I feel a bit better. I just can't wrap my head around it. Why would Cartman insist he doesn't like me and then.. kiss me. What's that even about?? And he did it in the hallway! Thank god nobody saw it..
I should've pushed him off me.. I don't know why I didn't.
I get out of bed and get dressed. I don't feel like having breakfast, I'll just ask Butters to share his lunch with me, he always does it anyway. Shit. I should've talked to Butters last night, I'll just see him at school I guess.

When I get to school I run to my first class. Hopefully it won't matter that I'm 20 minutes late, better late than never. As I enter the classroom I look over the room in hopes of seeing Butters. Looks like he bailed.. I go over to an empty chair and sit down beside Scott.

"Hey, you hang out with Butters sometimes, do you know where he is?" I ask Scott. He looked at me briefly and then scoffed. "Dude! What's up your ass?" I ask surprised. I thought Scott and I were cool?

"You know what you did." Scott replied coldly.

"What? What did I do??" I don't understand him. What the fuck is going on?

"Don't talk to me, I'm trying to focus." He said without looking at me.

"Dude.. whatever." I take my phone out of my pocket and start typing a text to Butters.

Me: Hey! Why aren't you at school? I was hoping we could hang?

I wait for a bit, but no reply.

Me: also, do you know what's up with Scott? He's being a total asshole :(

I stare at the screen until something pops up: (seen), under both messages. But Butters didn't type anything.

"What the.." I let out quietly. He's usually so quick to answer. I'll just try again..

Me: hey, are we good?
(Seen)

"Dude.." I mutter to myself.

Me: Butters, what's going on?? Please talk to me :) is something wrong? Just let me know!
(Seen)

I can't believe this. Is Butters actually ignoring me? No.. I'm probably just overreacting. He could've left his phone in his room with our chat open and went to the toilet or something? Yeah.. it's probably just that.

After class I went to the cafeteria for lunch. I scan the room quickly, but no sign of Butters. I sigh. I go to a table where Clyde, Tweek, Craig, Tolkien and Jimmy sat. I put my apple, that I got for free from the cafeteria, on the table and sit down.

"Hey, guys!" I reply cheerfully. The boys exchange glances for a moment.

"What do you think you're doing?" Craig then asked in his usual flat tone.

"Uhh, eating?" I reply confused.

"Could you sit somewhere else? We don't really want to hang out with you.." Clyde said and the other boys nodded slightly in agreement.

"What?" I don't understand what's going on. 

"Don't act stupid, Kenny! We know what you did." Tolkien said as he glared at me.

"What? What did I do??" I am so confused.

"Just fuck off, man." Craig then added. I stood up and went to look for another table. Suddenly I felt like everyone was staring at me. No.. I didn't 'feel' like it, everyone was staring at me. What the fuck is going on?? I hurry over to where Stan, Kyle and Cartman sat, I don't really want to talk to Cartman right now but I need to know what's going on.

"Guys? What the fuck is going on? Why does everyone hate me all of a sudden??" I ask frantically as I clumsily sit down.

"Dude.. You're such a dick." Kyle said as he stared at me blankly. 

"But why??" I asked

"Everyone know's what you did to Butters.." Stan replied.

"To Butters??" I became even more confused. "What did I do?"

"Are you seriously going to act like you don't know?" Kyle asked frustrated. "I'm not the biggest fan of Butters but I still feel like he's entitled to at least basic respect. You can't just go and fucking cheat on him! You literally just got together and you pull this shit!" Kyle stood up "This is pathetic, Kenny." He said and then left, Stan running after him.

"Cartman.. do you know anything about this?" I ask him, I just know he had something to do with it.

"The main thing I heard is that you cheated on him with some chick.." Cartman said and shrugged.

"The main thing?" I'm stunned. "What else did you hear??"

"Well.. I heard you slept with like two chicks, dude.." Cartman said hesitantly.

"What?! Who's been saying this shit? Is that why Butters isn't talking to me?" I have a million questions running through my head. Who would do this? Cartman? Kyle??

"Butters' not talking to you?" Cartman asked, but I didn't answer. "Dude, I'm so sorry I.. kissed you yesterday. I didn't think anyone was there. Someone must've seen us and, for some reason, thought I was a hot chick.." He continued. 

"Yeah.." I looked at Cartman for a moment. He seemed sincere enough.

"Look, I don't know what came over me yesterday. I swear it won't happen again." Cartman said reassuringly. "Right now I just want to restore your reputation, because unlike all the other fucktards at this school I'm not gonna make up and spread lies."

"Thanks, man." I smile at him. I knew he had changed. "We're totally good." I then add. Cartman smiled.
