Marjorine's POV:
The rest of the night was painfully awkward. Maybe coming back to South Park was a mistake? I knew it would cause problems for me... seeing everybody again... I was stupid to think I could handle this... I can barely handle being yelled at how did I think I could do this?!
Ugh whatever... I digress. I should get some sleep, I've got work tomorrow and I don't want to be too tired to do anything. I lay down on my back with my hands loosely crossed over my chest Karen glances down at me from where she's sitting on my bed, Bebe and Kevin have already dozed off with Kevin on the floor surrounded in beer bottles. Shocking. and Bebe in her bed curled in a ball.
"Going to sleep Marji?" she asked with a slight cock of her head, still looking down at me.
"Gonna try to at least..." I say with a slight chuckle.
She nods in acknowledgment before looking back down at her phone as it chimes, lets out a small chuckle before turning back to me with a cheeky grin.
"I'm gonna sneak out. Cover for me?" she whispers to me.
"I can't! I'm in hot enough water with Kenny- If he finds out I'd let you sneak out I'm pretty sure he'd murder me... and you!" I whisper-yell in response and groan.
"Okay fair.... why don't you come with?"
"I've got work tomorrow!" I remind her.
"Well, you work at a coffee shop for a reason! Just drink caffeine you'll stay awake for hours right?" she pauses, "Come on pleaseeee? For me?" she clasps her hands together and pleads.
With a reluctant sigh, I agree. I sit up and lean my back against the headboard, she smiles warmly and sets down her phone.
"Ugh... fine. Where are we going?" I ask with a tilt of my head.
"Nowhere," A voice speaks up from across the room, Kenny emerges from the kitchen and is standing with his arms crossed glaring at the two of us from the kitchen entrance, he looks pissed. Not sure if that's because of the bracelet or because of Karen attempting to sneak out. "You, go to sleep." he points to Karen with his index finger, "You. Come with me, we need to talk." he points behind him with his thumb.
Reluctantly, I agree to go with him. Karen gives my hand a slight squeeze and turns to me with a reassuring smile, I stand up and follow behind Kenny out of the dorm I look behind me and see Karen looking at me, she nods and gestures for me to go.
Its late at night right now and we and Karen are likely the only three awake as of right now, we walk down the stairs we step outside of the dorm complex onto the campus, the lights illuminate the walkway, and the dim orange lights have moths surrounding the bulbs. We walk a bit further before sitting on a wooden-worn-down bench.
The two of us sit in silence for a few moments before he takes a breath, the breath is visible against the chill air of the night, he reaches into his pocket and pulls out his bracelet with a small 'K' carved in one of the beads.
"Can I see your bracelet real quick?" he asked glancing over at me with a slightly less angry expression then before, I slid the bracelet off my wrist and placed it carefully in his opened palm. He pulled his hand back toward his chest and started inspecting the beads closely.
"This is the one I gave to Butters. Why do you have this?" he asked noticing the small 'B' ingrained in one of the beads, "Did you steal it? Did he give it to you?" he starts listing off questions.
I try to speak but no words come out... just talk. Say it... fast. Like a bandaid! Come on just say it!!! I open my mouth to speak, but again no words. So instead of trying to form a proper sentence I respond with,
"No..." Wow, Marj. Good save... dumbass.
"No what?"
"No I didn't take it," I pause before continuing, "and no he didn't give it to me..."
"Then why the hell do you have this!? This doesn't belong to you!" his angry once again starts to rise.
"Well... I uh-" I fumble over my words as his anger increases more and more.
"You're lying. You took it didn't you?!"
"Wh-? No! I didn't take it!" I say in an attempt to defend myself.
"THEN ANSWER MY DAMN QUESTIONS. WHY DO YOU HAVE THIS AND NOT BUTTERS? WHERE THE HELL EVEN IS BUTTERS?!"
Even the mere mention of that stupid name makes me cringe in discomfort... with a sigh emerging from my lips, we fall silent once again... for what seems like hours we stare off into the distance gazing on the night sky before he speaks up in a quiet tone.
"This doesn't belong to you..." he runs his thumb over the small pink beads and they clatter together, causing a small clicking noise. I don't know if he's talking to me or himself.
Yes it does. I think to myself in my head... I want to yell. I want to say 'IT DOES BELONG TO ME!!! I USED TO BE BUTTERS!! IT'S MINE SHUT UP!!!!' but I just can't... my fears won't let me speak up. With my hands slightly shaking and my head bowed down I muster up all my courage and speak up quietly in an almost whisper.
"Yes, it does..."
He looks at me with a raised eyebrow and a confused expression.
"How...? I don't-" he pauses trying to wrap his head around my comment.
"It's hard to explain..."
"Can you try...?" he asks in a desperate tone.
I exhale and take a breath before I nod, I curl my knees to my chest with my arms over my knees, I rest my chin on my forearms, and I look up at the sky watching the stars. His line of sight follows mine before the two of us sit looking at the sky. Like a bandaid... come on Marjorine.
3. Deep breaths...
2. It'll be okay... probably?
1. GO FOR IT!
"I used to be Butters."
