The storm ended a few days later, and in that time frame, Emily was positive she'd gotten to know Kyle better than she'd ever known anyone else.

Kyle was walking her home and they were talking and laughing as they had been for the past few days.

"I had a lot of fun." Emily said as they got to her front door.

"Me too." Kyle said. "See you in school tomorrow."

"Bye!" 

Emily walked inside and was greeted by James.

"Em! How was Kyle's house?" he asked.

"Nice. I really like his family."

"You're hiding something." James said.

Ugh. He always sees right through me.

"I..." Emily hesitated. "I have a boyfriend."

"Really? That's great, Em!" James said. "You and Kyle must have really hit it off."

"I've just never had someone outside my family that's so willing to listen to everything I have to say." Emily said. "But Kyle was so sweet. Don't say anything to Ian and Danny, okay?"

"No problem."

Tweek and Craig knocked on Clyde's door.

"Are you sure about this? Gah!" Tweek said nervously. "Why do you think we should tell him?"

"The sooner we tell him, the sooner he'll get over it." Craig replied.

Clyde opened the door and saw his friends.

"Hey, guys. What's up?" he asked.

"Tweek, you tell him." Craig said.

"What?! Me?!" Tweek asked.

"Fine." Craig replied. "The new girl's with Kyle."

"What?" Clyde asked.

"The new girl, Emily. She's dating Kyle." Craig said.

"She is?" Clyde asked.

"We know you liked her, but she'll probably still be friends with you."

"Okay..." Clyde said. "Thanks."

He closed the door, somewhat heartbroken. 

But...I really liked her.

Clyde's dad came in to see his son staring longingly out the window.

"What's wrong, Clyde?" he asked.

"This new girl moved in a few days ago and I really like her, but she's with one of my friends." Clyde explained to his father.

"Well, did you ever let her know you liked her?"

"No..."

"And has she treated you any differently ever since she's been with your friend?"

"No..."

"Well, at least you know she doesn't hate you. I'm sure she'll still be friends with you."

"I just...really liked her."

"I know, Clyde. But who knows? Maybe you'll find someone you like even more than her. You're only ten years old. You still have your whole life to find someone."

"I guess." Clyde said, feeling just a bit better.

Morning came. Emily walked into South Park Elementary, more confident than she'd ever been in her life. 

Until she opened the door to the fourth grade classroom only to be greeted by none other than Eric Cartman.

"Finally." he said.

"What do you want from me?" Emily asked, trying to hide that she was completely terrified of him.

"Just come in here." Cartman said. "We have some unfinished business."

"Why can't we just do it out here?" Emily asked.

"Because it's not a big deal."

"If it's not a big deal, then why can't we do it out here?"

"Stop stalling!" Cartman shouted, dragging Emily into the classroom by her arm.

"Ow! What the hell? Stop!" Emily shouted, being dragged against her will.

"Why didn't you invite me to your party?" Cartman asked, menacingly.

"For the last freaking time! I told everyone I sat with to come over, and told them to tell the rest of the boys in the class!"

"So did you tell them not to tell me?"

"No! They decided that on their own!"

"Nice try, but I'm not buying it."

"Oh, God, what are you gonna do?"

"Quiet!"

"Aah!"

Emily ran to the door, only to find herself locked in.

Someone...save me.
