Stan's POV

I've been driving for four hours. We left at ten this morning for the campground that's booked for use by our class. We still have a long way to drive, but should finally arrive at the campground at eight tonight.
Beside me in shotgun is my friend Michelle. She moved here for the eighth grade and we hung out, and ended up being good friends. In the back is Kyle, Kenny and Petra, another girl that moved to South Park in the sixth grade. She became a friend, also.
Cartman and all the other students are in other vehicles. I would feel bad for whoever has to endure ten hours of Eric Cartman, but to be honest after the seventh grade Cartman wasn't so bad anymore. He became an actual friend to us, even Kyle, though they still argue sometimes. To be honest, since he has gotten so much taller, Cartman really isn't as much of a fattass anymore, either. He's still overweight, but not nearly as much.
I look over to Michelle, who is listening to music on her phone and slowly falling asleep in her seat. In the rear view mirror I can see Kyle reading a book, Kenny leafing through a Playboy, and Petra on her cellphone, probably texting someone.
I turn my attention back to the highway. My eyes feel tired, I may have to pull over soon and get someone else to drive. We'll be going through a city in a bit less than an hour, so I can switch with someone when we stop to get gas and pick up a couple snacks. It's been a long enough drive already, and I'm sure everyone is getting hungry.

After putting more gas into the car I head into the store to pay. I pick up a bag of Doritos for the road and pay at the till. Kyle walks up behind me with his own drink and a sandwich.
"Hey dude." He says to me as he puts his stuff up on the counter and grabs his wallet from his back pocket.
"Hey Kyle." I reply. "You wanna drive now?" I ask.
"I guess." He replies, paying for his food and taking the bag the cashier put it in. We walk back out of the store and he hops into the drivers seat while I take his former spot in the back. Meanwhile another recognizable vehicle pulls up. The doors open and Token, Craig, Cartman, Clyde and Butters emerge.
"I'll be back in a sec." Kyle tells me, hopping out of the truck to go see Cartman. I look out the window and see them peck each other on the lips.
I remember when Kyle came out as gay to me. I was surprised, really really surprised, yet i was accepting. When he came out as gay for Cartman, though, that was when I really lost it. Cartman?! I'd said to him. But I learned to accept that as well. And after them dating for the past two years, I am glad I did. They're surprisingly good together.
Kyle came back into the car as Michelle, Petra and Kenny did. We pulled out of the lot and back onto the road, prepared for another nine hours of driving.
