CLICHÉ LOVE

CHAPTER FOUR

Cartman's POV:

I couldn't believe Kyle had the necklace all along, when I was looking for it all over. I was relieved I didn't lose it though, I don't know what I'd tell Heidi.

"Holy shit! Thanks Kyle." I grab the necklace from his hands, accidentally touching Kyle's hand a bit as I did so. "Mhm.." He mumbled as he walked off into the school building with Stan. I couldn't tell if he was embarrassed or pissed off at me.

Stan's POV:

Kyle said something under his breath to Cartman, then gestures me to go in with him. He keeps his head down, but I could still see that his face was red.

"Dude, are you good?" I ask.

"What the hell are you talking about? I'm fine."

"It's just," I pause. "Uh, Nevermind. I'll walk you to class."

I tried to lighten Kyle's mood by talking about the new school year and such, but he'd only respond with nodding his head slightly. At this point I'm worried about him.

"Are you sure you're okay? You look a little distracted Kyle." I question him one more time before he enters his first period class.

"I'm fine, alright Stan?" I could see him rolling his eyes, and his face was still painted with blush. I sighed and walked away to get to my class.

I have no idea what's going on with him. One thing's for sure though: something definitely happened between him and Cartman last night, and I know no better than to find out what it was.

Kyle's POV:

I drop my things on my desk, and slouch down into my chair.

I appreciate Stan's concern, but telling him about what's going on with me is out of the question. I'm not even sure of how I feel yet, let alone ready to admit it.

My thoughts were cut off by the teacher, talking about school rules or something. I look around the classroom to see who's in my class. Most of them are people I don't really know that well. As I'm glancing at everyone, I hear a familiar voice from behind me.

"Sorry I'm late, miss." I quickly turn my head around as I hear him. Of course it's him, goddammit.
