It was a normal, boring day at South park. The young boys are in 9th grade now, and to tell the truth, they haven't changed.
"Craig.." Whispered Stan stairing at Craig.
Craig groweld. "What the fuck do you want now?" He asked turning to Stan.
"Pass this note to Kyle!"
"God fucking dammit."
"Why are you so pissy all the time? You need to relax. "
Craig turned quiet and passed the note to Kyle, his face turned a little pale and he was silent for the rest of the school day.
Time went by fastly, and suprisingly, Stan was worried. Usually Craig would have kept yelling at Stan, but he was silent.. he really never gave a shit about Craig, but this botherd him.
Stan got the guts to talk to dousche Craig, Stan liked to avoid him as much as possible.. Well, because Craig was a jerk.
"Craig.." Stan spoke as he sped up to Craig.
"what, stan?" Craig gave him a irratated look and then sighed.
"Are you.. Are you okay?" stan gulped looking away. He never talked to craig one and one, unless if they were fighting.. This is different.
"I'm whatever Stan, why do you care about me all of a sudden?"
Stan and Craig paused and looked at eachother. Craig, with is normal irrated look, and Stan with a calm and worried expression.
"Well usually you'd be bitching like you always do. but you were just.. quiet. I don't know, I mean it's weird. I'll just go." Stan sighed.
Stan started to walk off silently as Craig just stood there.
the four boys stood in front of the bus stop, as a normal ritural.
Cartman and Kyle with their normal bickering fights and Kenny stairing off into the sky.
The bus showed up.
Instead of sitting with Kyle, Stan sat with Craig.
"Uh, okay yeah Stan. You can sit with me. Thank you for being so nice and asking." Craig mummbled as he staired out the window.
"Sorry, Craig." Stan looked at him... Still worried.
"Why aren't you sitting with your boyfriend?" Craig smirked and turned to Stan.
"Shut up Craig. He is not my boyfriend." Stan said, trying to ignore the fact of a couple nights him and Kyle have had together.
"Okay, sorry, sorry." Craig giggled.
"I came to see what was wrong yesterday."
Craig looked at Stan, he looked relieved.
"If you care, you can come to my house. I don't want these faggots hearing anything."
Stan smiled and agreed, he staired in front of the bus until they got to the school.
Stan knocked on Craigs door.
"Hi" Craig said looking at Stan.
"Hey dude.." Stan smiled
Craig greeted him in, and the house was empty. They went up to Craigs bedroom and Stan stood awkwardly by the door, this was his first time at Craigs house, he had no clue what to do, infact, he was exactly sure if him and craig were friends or not.
" You can sit on my bed if you want to. I wont kill you." Craig smirked and sighed. The two boys sat on the bed.
"Well?" Stan asked as he turned to Craig to find him almost crying. "Dude are you okay?" Stan asked leaning in to see Craig better.
Craig had tears down his cheeks as he was crying silently avoiding eye contact with Stan.
"No, I'm not." Craig sighed and whiped his eyes.
"What's.. What's wrong Craig?" Stan layed his hand on Craigs sholder.
Craig turned to Stan and smiled. "It's okay."
"No it's not." Stan was determined to find out what was wrong with Craig.
Craig looked down again as tears rolled down his eyes with out him even trying. "I haven't cried infront of somebody in years.. I mean, No one cared enough.. It's weird.. I feel you'd make a good friend Stan. I haven't had to many, and I learned to be by myself. And I know I'm not nice, I fucking get that. But, It hurts to see people getting along and I'm just alone."
Craig sighed and let out more tears.
"I see you and Kyle and Kenny and fatass hanging with eachother everyday, you four are best friends and it kills me inside, no one has ever cared about me like you four do to eachother, and I feel so alone.. and.."
Craig carried off and sighed as he wiped his eyes.
"Craig.." Stan trailed off.
stan gave Craig a huge tight hug.
Craig smiled and returned it as tears ran down his cheeks he tightned the hug.
"I'll be you're friend." Stan whispered into Craig ear.
