All in Danger: A South Park Fanfic

chapter one: Coming out

“Get out of my way fatass!” The feisty redhead screamed, he waved his fist in Cartman’s face. 
   
    “No Kahl!!” Cartman yelled, he pushed Kyle back a bit and smirked. 

Cartman was constantly teasing Kyle and it was for a number of reasons. From having red hair and freckles to his newest discovery about the 17 year old. Kyle’s face turned red with anger as he continued to cuss out his fat “friend”. 

“I just want to hear you say it yourself and then I’ll leave!” Cartman continued to make Kyle feel embarrassed. School had just come to an end and kids were walking past Kyle and Cartman fighting on the sidewalk outside. They all ignored the bickering, it was a normal occurrence. Kyle sighed and covered his face to hide his frustration. Cartman was standing in Kyles' way and wouldn’t let him go home. Everytime Kyle would try and go around, Cartman would just sidestep in front of him. 

Stan stood just a few feet away watching them argue, he kept his eye on Kyle and watched his every movement. He could only see the back of his best friend's head, but just by his dramatic arm movements, Stan could tell he was angry. Stan chuckled, he loved seeing Kyle worked up, it was hilarious. He also thought it was cute the way Kyle’s whole face would turn a tomato red when he was angry or embarrassed. Thats right, South Park’s star quarterback was gay, and he hadn’t told a soul. He and Wendy had broken up the beginning of junior year, they were now coming to an end to their senior year of High School. Stan desperately wanted to tell Kyle about his lingering feeling towards him, but he could never work up the courage, he always felt like he would throw up as soon as he would open his mouth. Cartman’s crying brought Stan out of his thoughts and back to reality. The tub of lard was laying on the ground and Kyle had stormed off and had made quite the distance, not even noticing that Stan was behind him during the argument.  

    Kyle was beyond pissed at Cartman, he had gone too far this time. He had threatened to expose his biggest secret if Kyle didn’t say who he liked. Who does that fatass think he is!? Kyle thought to himself. He was so lost in thought that he didn’t even hear footsteps running up behind him. Kyle nearly jumped out of his boots when he felt someone grab his hand and stopped him in his tracks. He spun around quickly, only to see Stan hunched over, hands on his knees and panting. Kyle knelt down and turned his head in a way that he could see Stan's face. 

“Uh...you okay Stan?” Kyle asked, finally standing up. Stan held up a finger, signaling to give him a minute. He stood up and looked at his freckled friend with a worried expression. 

“I should be asking you that! You stormed off so quickly!” Stan put his hand on Kyle’s shoulder, waiting for an answer to his anger. Kyle sighed and shrugged Stan’s hand off of him. 

“It was just a fight, nothing more, just a normal everyday argument.” Kyle explained, Stan could tell Kyle was lying. Most people wouldn’t know the difference because Kyle was actually good at lying, but not to his best friend. Stan knew Kyle better than anyone, they were super best friends after all. 

“Are you sure? Didn’t seem like your everyday fight though.” Stan tried to pry and see if Kyle would tell him more. 

Kyle rolled his eyes and nodded, should I tell Stan? What if he’s homophobic?! No It’s Stan. God he’s so so cute! Kyle’s mind was racing with different thoughts, that was the big secret that Cartman found out about, thanks to going through Kyle’s backpack and reading his journal. Kyle sighed for the umpteenth time and looked Stan in his ocean blue eyes. He always got lost in them, they were such a deep beautiful blue. Kyle finally opened his mouth to speak after a few moments of silence. Stan eagerly awaited the answer to his question. 

    “He was making fun of me...for…” Kyle started then stopped. Is this really a good idea? Kyle gulped and moved his eyes frantically to look at anything but the boy in front of him. 
   
    “For what? You can tell me!” Stan urged for his friend to continue, he was really curious. Is it something Kyle felt he couldn’t tell me? Stan bit his lip in anticipation.
