Hi. I just want to tell you who visit this fanfiction, welcome! Oh and also a few things.
This is my first South Park fanfiction and first proper story written in English. Yep, English isn't my first language.
So expect some grammatical error and you might find weird combination of words; it's highly possible.
And to be honest this story is just a prototype for me to try write something in English; to practice. But if you guys would like this fic to continue, don't hesitate to let me know!
And it would be really appreciated if you can give me some advice about my writing. Don't hesitate to review or PM!
Ok, let's get into this!

Craig Tucker hated Stan Marsh.
Maybe it's because they looked pretty much alike; with their raven hair, blue eyes, and body height. Craig didn't see it though. And he's quite sure that he's taller than Stan. Not that he cared, though. But with all that morons-that Craig likes to call them-keep rambling about their similarities, it's hard not to dislike Stan. Maybe it's kind of defense mechanism, since being alike screams rivalry.
At first it's just a slight dislike towards that guy. But after seeing how Stan lived his life, it made him sick. Typical popular kid that runs high school, that what he was. Had friends that always followed him around, joined football team, and dated the most popular girl in their school, Wendy Testaburger. They had on and off relationship since elementary school, and it always followed by the same pattern. They will broke up, and that Wendy girl would date the smart annoying kid named Gregory or whatever but eventually would go back to Stan. Stan himself was never seen with other girls, even though girls on their school would do anything to get to that jock's pants. Craig didn't know if that is loyalty or just plain stupidity.
That's why Craig hates Stan. That guy should be honored though, since Craig who usually didn't give a damn fuck about almost everything took energy and time to hate him.
Unfortunately for Craig, it's the world that hated him. He got paired up with Stan in history class for a big project that last until winter break. What a fucking joke. So he's gonna spend the next 4 months with that asswipe? Don't worry, it got much worse. His homeroom teacher thought it would be a great idea that the history class pairing will be the same pairing for voluntary camp that will be held next month. She said it would raise effectiveness in both project. Craig still thought it's a dumb idea. He just couldn't get why teachers can't ask the student to choose their own partner. Maybe fate just wanted to fuck with him.
So there he was, standing in front of Stan's house. Craig did suggest to do their work in library, but being a dickhead he was, Stan refused to even get close to that place. What's up with him anyway, got a libraria-paranoia or something? Well, whatever. Craig just decided not to question anymore. He just wanted this to be over with. He stared at the door before ringing the bell, and at that time, he hated his life even more.

Stan Marsh envied Craig Tucker.
Maybe it's the way he could do what Stan couldn't do. He didn't care about what people think of him, so he just always said everything in his mind. Stan couldn't do that; he couldn't stand the thought of people leaving him if he blurted out all his minds. Hell, they might think he's crazy for having some rotten minds. He only shares a few of his minds with his best friends, Kyle and Kenny, but he definitely still hide a lot. On the contrary, Stan wondered if Craig ever held his opinion to himself.
What amused Stan more, Craig still have a few close friends that cared about him, at least that what Stan thought. Even though Craig said a few harsh words at them, they didn't mind and just responded casually as if it's nothing. Clyde, one of his friends, sometimes even just laughed it off like the harsh words were just usual thing he heard.
Yes, Stan might have observed Craig Tucker too much, but for Stan, he just couldn't help it. He's so free and kind of… interesting. He meant his personality, of course. Even though other people thinks he was rude, boorish and boring guy, Stan knows there were something more to that guy. He didn't know why, but he's eager to know.
His interest of Craig was becoming more intense when one day he saw that guy in Stark's Pond. Craig didn't saw him, though, too absorbed to his drawing. Stan was not near enough to see his drawing, but it's the first time Stan saw different look on his eyes. Usually his eyes showed how much he hates everything, but this time, he had… some kind of an intense passion sparkling through his eyes. Stan was captivated at the look on him, that he started to envy him more. Stan didn't know what he's into. Sure, he's pretty good at football, but he just couldn't see himself has a future carrier associated with it. He's just… always too confused for his own good. But Craig… seemed to have his mind set already. It's confirmed when one day Stan saw an art school brochure sticked in Craig's locker. Stan didn't know why, but seeing someone at the age of him had already set his mind for the future is just so… cool.
And there he was, waiting for Craig to come to his home. He's not sure about pairing up with Craig is a good idea, even though he can't lie he felt a little joy when Ms. Stark mentioned his name with Craig. It's just that… Stan has a feeling Craig wouldn't like him. Sure almost everyone in his school is nice to him, but Craig, of course, different. Maybe Stan's just nervous about befriending his 'role model'? Or he was afraid that Craig will turn out to be the same as everyone else? When he heard the bell rang, he jolted from the couch and rushed towards the door. Every questions in Stan's mind will soon be answered after he opened this door.
