'Member? (Kenny and Butters)

9 - Apple

-Kenny's POV-

I wake up to find Butters gone. I look around and nobody's there. I get up out the bed and open up my drawer and I take out a pair of jeans. I take my pajama pants off and throw it in my hamper. I hear a click and I turn around to see Butters giggling and running down the hall.

I run after him and he runs into his room and jumps on his bed and he gets trapped in the corner by me.

"Why'd you take a picture of me changing?" I say, getting on his bed and cornering him more.

"'Cuz I needed the 'Bad Ass' in action." Butters said, with a smirk. I liked this side of him.

"Oh yeah?" I say, grinning.

"*gulp* Yeah." Butters said, still smirking but nervous. I get closer to him and I start tickling him, he squirms around the bed, laughing, with his phone still in his hand. I keep tickling him, and I realize that I ended up being on top of him, with just underwear on. While I was still tickling him Butters opens his phone and I hear that same click again, pointing up at me. I stop tickling him, while he's stops laughing to catch his breath.

"Are you serious?" I say, laughing. He nods his head and slides under me and runs out the room and I hear his feet running down the stairs. I shake my head, smiling. I walk back into my room and pull up my jeans and buttoned them. I throw on my jacket and zipped it
up. I run my fingers through my hair and start walking down the stairs.

Butters is sitting on the couch eating cereal and has his phone in his hand. He didn't realize I came down. I look over the couch and it looks like he changed into his day clothes already somehow. I look over his shoulder and at his phone. It's the picture he took of me on top of him with just underwear tickling him and it's a little blurry from him squirming. He ran his frail thumb over my face on the screen. He turns his phone off and sets in down next to him on the couch. He starts eating his cereal again, calmly. I walk into the kitchen to get an apple. I walk back into the living room and sat next to Butters on the couch.

Butters just finished his cereal and set his bowl on the coffee table in front of him.

"Gimme the phone." I say, putting my hand out to him. Butters looks over and smiles.

"No can do, McCormick." He says, smiling wider.

"Mhmm, okay. Or is there something I can do for you?" I say, setting my apple on the table and leaning closer to Butters. I seen a faint blush appear on his face. I reach over his waist and grab his phone without him looking away from my eyes. I lean back and sit back, letting my legs stretch and crossed them on Butters's crisscrossed lap.

He was speechless and his blush intensified. I open up his phone to see the wallpaper of his phone to be us when we were in elementary. I smile at it, then I go to his Snapchat. I go to camera roll and go to the picture he took. I click the edit photo button and I start typing:

"Butters, I seen you rubbing my face with your thumb on this photo when I came downstairs and it just made me smile. So I'm not deleting this. By the way, I need to talk to you about something after work."

I pressed save and make a new copy so I didn't ruin the original, and I set down the phone next to him again. He was able to move again and he picked up his phone and went to his camera roll. I got up and picked up the apple core and threw it away.

"You wanna walk to Tweak's Coffee shop?" I ask, as I pick up his cereal bowl and spoon and walked into the kitchen, I washed them both and set them in the strainer and walked back into the living room. He nodded and stood up.

"I'm sorry for making things awkward. I didn't mean to, I-I- didn't know what I was thinking." I said, rubbing the back of my neck.

"It's fine, it's just I'm sorry you seen me doing that." Butters said, nervously, rubbing his knuckles together. I walk over to the shoe rack and take out my black converse and put them on. I hand Butters's his light blue converse and he puts them on, and we walk out the door. We started walking to Tweek's shop.

The silence was really awkward and deafening. I couldn't wait anymore. I needed to make my move, now. While we were walking I took my hand and put it on his. I seen him look at me with a gasp but I kept walking. His shock ness turned into a blush and he intertwined his fingers with mine. I smiled as we kept walking until we made it to Tweek's shop, finally. I let go of his hand, calmly. I look at him, but he's too nervous to look at me. His face is covered in pure red.

"Hey, I'll be here after work so we can walk home together." I say, looking away, rubbing the back of my neck.

"Okay, urm- I need to make that YouTube video today with you, so I can edit it." Butters says, shyly.

"Yeah that's okay, hey I don't want it to be awkward between us. I'm sorry, I wasn't thinking." I said, riskily looking at him.

"No, really. It's fine, I-I-uh wanted to." Butters says, rubbing his knuckles together. He has a faint blush and I'm pretty sure I do, too.

"I-uh will be here after work, and we can talk more. Later!" I say, trying to get away as fast I can, so I can think about this.

"Bye, Kenny." Butters says, quietly. I was barely able to hear him.

I turn back for a second, to see Butters walk into the shop. I turn back around and start jogging the rest of the way there. What have I done?
