She was just a sophomore in college, but already she had been making a name for herself. A child prodigy that began inventing when she was just six, and now at nineteen years old, her name was on the front page of magazines like TIME and Modern Science. Everyone knew the name Alice Horowitz, the creator of the newly patented Genetic Information Technology; weapons that could only be used by the person who owned them, a controversial concept that would revolutionize the weapon industry.
It made her a target, of course. While she was prepared to deal with the onslaught of attention, she wasn't prepared to deal with the negative aspect, how she was now a target for the mafia and other crime syndicates who didn't agree with her idea about genetically tied weaponry. While she was very popular with law enforcement and the FBI, she was also wildly unpopular with criminals all around.
Who knew you could actually be assigned a superhero to shadow you? The police found it easier to keep track by lending one of their trusted and loyal superheroes instead of giving her a fleet of secret agents, mostly because she told the chief of police that she didn't want that type of security that was better fit for ex-presidents and royals. She still wanted to live normally, as normal as she could get being a super genius with a bounty on her head.
Alice never got to actually meet her superhero, but she knew he was there. The trick of it was, someone she knew in her daily life was going to be that mysterious masked caped crusader but for anonymity and safety's sake, she wasn't allowed to know what mundane human being was actually her protector in disguise. The variables in the experiment perked her interest, as it could be a young man that had gotten partnered with in her Chemistry class, or one of those handsome frat dudes that she struck up a conversation with at a nearby party.
Eventually, Alice did run into her mysterious masked caped crusader at one point, except that, she didn't actually run into him, but instead she was actually testing out her safety net. Curiosity got to her, really, and she knew she couldn't actually die from taking a dive from that height anyway, she had tested the theory out many times in the past. Instead of breaking her leg, she ended up having her fall broken by another body. He looked upset at how Alice was grinning at him for saving her, knowing that it wasn't really needed but he fell for the trick anyway. He dropped her flat on her ass after that, proceeding to lecture Alice on how not to fucking scare him like that.
"That's not how you take care of a damsel in distress." Alice couldn't stop grinning, and the masked man just glared at her.
"You did that on purpose and you know it! All to blow my cover." His gravely voice was irritated, but it made her grin even further.
"I wasn't just going to let this go by untested," She reasoned, "For all you know I could have been in danger."
He stared at her incredulously, "First of all, no one willingly jumps into danger just to test out their protection! Don't even go there with me, Alice. I was assigned to keep you safe, not to be your buddy. Don't you remember the boy who called wolf? Do you really want to play that game?"
Alice couldn't help but laugh at the analogy, putting the lecture he was giving her in the back of her mind while she stepped closer to him, flicking the green question mark on his head. "What do I call you, Mystery Boy?"
He looked offended, "Mysterion." He corrected, flatly.
Alice rolled the name on her tongue, thinking it over. It sounded cheesy, but then superheroes were always cheesy. "I really don't like being left out on the fun, Mysterion. If you had a file on me, then you should have expected this outcome." She winked playfully.
Mysterion still didn't look amused, "Hasn't anyone told you that curiosity killed the cat?"
"A cat has nine lives, Mysterion." Alice teased him, "Unless they decide to implement God Mode, that is."
Mysterion left after that, returning to the shadows to be her hidden protector, even though Alice knew that all it took was a crazy stunt to get him back out in the open.
She decided to do some research of her own the next morning, because it was obvious that he had done research on her. So why not make it even between the two of them? She used her hacking abilities to get everything she could on Mysterion, going so far as to play inside the SPPD police database. Alice only grinned at his rap sheet, everything he had done with the Freedom Pals, and how mostly all of them were still active.
Her phone went off suddenly, actually startling her from her intense cram session. She quickly answered, bringing it up to her ear, "Sup?"
"Gee, Alice, it's past ten."
Alice smiled at the voice, giggling. She knew that voice anywhere, her favorite Chemistry partner and study buddy. "It is? Oh, tell the others I'll be there in ten minutes." She got up as she talked, searching for a pair of clean jeans.
"Were you doin' somethin' naughty, Alice?" He sounded so innocent saying that, and she could practically see him frowning from her end of the call.
"I got too carried away watching some BBC creampie porn, sorry Buttercup." She grinned when he began to sputter at her words, giggling again.
"Are ya teasin' me again Alice?" He whined then, "You know I don't like you doin' that!"
He sounded so sweet, but teasing him was the best part of her day. Alice smiled, pulling on a good pair of jeans. "Yes, I'm teasing you, I'm actually into gang bangs nowadays, just full on raw DP."
He sputtered again, and this time she swore he dropped his phone, because it sounded like he was struggling with it and whimpering cutely. "Not funny." He chided, "Boy howdy, what if your calls are bein' bugged, Al?" He asked hotly, "A villain could be hearin' all this dirty stuff!"
"Then I hope he has a good collection for his spank bank." Alice found a top that wasn't wrinkled to all hell, putting the boy on speaker phone. She was going to have to do some laundry soon. "I'm not all that worried, Butters, I'm very elusive for a super genius."
"Well, alright." The boy's voice sounded relieved, "Just get over to the library quick, I can't stay out here for too long talkin' to ya."
"I'll jet right over there, kid." She said reassuringly, pulling on the shirt and finally slipping on the first pair of shoes she could find. He must have hung up, because her phone was dead quiet now. She let out a giggle at her own devious thoughts before grabbing her phone and her backpack, quickly darting out of her dorm room.
She was safe as she could be in this town, as she researched the hell out of every place long before she came out to the public with her inventions. South Park used to be a no-name dinky town in the middle of nowhere in Colorado until the higher ups decided to bulldoze the Super Walmart after some horrible accidental deaths. Instead of rebuilding, someone got a bright idea to establish a college to bring in more people. Apparently it worked like a charm, and suddenly the small town was not so small anymore, and it was ever growing year by year. It was also a hotbed for the craziest shit ever imaginable, which was the biggest reason Alice decided on attending high school, and later college, there. Who doesn't like crazy shit? Alice knew she loved it, despite how cold it was compared to her former home in Phoenix, Arizona.
A couple of coats and scarves made up for it.
A couple of coats and scarves is something she forgot to bring with her on the trek between her dorm and the library. Alice knew Mysterion was watching over her like a mother hen, wanting to lecture her about her clothing decision for the morning, but she managed to flip him off before he could. Well, she actually flipped off the air in no particular direction, but she was sure he saw it.
Alice burst through the door to the library clutching her long-sleeved shirt with chilly fingers, ignoring the dirty look from the head librarian as she made her way upstairs. Butters, oh heavenly Butters, with his insulated cyan jacket and his hello kitty mittens, was standing there to greet her. Alice pulled on a hopeful smile and slipped her hands into his coat, making the boy jump.
"Where's your coat young lady!" He tried his best to keep his voice down, hearing their classmates snicker in the background.
"I was in a hurry." Alice tried, finding the boy's back pockets and slipping her hands in them. "Your butt is warm." She smiled.
"Alice!" He whined, "Not in public!" He tried.
"Do I need to call campus police?" A redhead from their table questioned.
"I'm freezing to death here and you want to write me up on harassment." Alice said indignantly, "Fine." She removed her hands from Butters and stepped away, rubbing what little warmth that were on her hands together.
Butters frowned at that, deciding to unwrap the scarf from his neck and hook it around hers. "Well, let's start studyin'." He smiled then.
"If we get out early I'll buy you a coffee." The redhead said to Alice, looking at her with a small amount of irritation, "Since you kept us waiting for a half-hour."
"Kyle," Alice breathed, sitting down at the table, "Did you ever hear of double penetration cumshots?" She questioned seriously.
He slapped his hand over his ears, "Jesus Christ, Alice, I'm not Butters and that won't work!"
Alice grinned then, because it did work, because Kyle just screamed at her in the library. Kyle realized his mistake and gave her a dirty look for it, making Wendy and Stan snicker behind their hands.
Butters managed a smile and a laugh, sitting next to Alice.
The possibility of Kyle being Mysterion was high on the list, as Kyle didn't like her brand of humor, at all, and acted like a doting mother. She weighed the options in her head after their study session, while they were in line at Tweek Bros waiting for coffee.
She still wanted to know who it was behind that mask, and she knew it couldn't be Butters. Butters was too sweet and soft to be so hard and edgy. Kyle was a possibility, with three gold stars in his favor, while Stan and Wendy weren't even near the ranking. Stan found her porn jokes funny, and Wendy was…well, Mysterion didn't have boobs, for one thing, and Wendy was stacked.
The only question was how Kyle could manage to hide all that jew fro into the hood, because some of that would definitely start to peek out at some point. Maybe he kept it controlled with a hundred hairpins and elastics, but hairspray was a possibility. Maintaining that would be a bitch, though.
She played footsie with Butters, which the small blonde actually enjoyed. She wanted to take Butters home and put a cat collar on him, because he was fucking adorable. One with a bell, a tiny bell to ring every time he was near.
"It's jam packed today." Wendy pointed out, watching the speed that Tweek was working at the counter. "I heard they employed another barista because it's getting so popular."
"Damn college kids and their damn coffee. Fucking hipsters." Alice grinned, gesturing to an actual fucking hipster in the corner.
"Don't pick on the patrons." Kyle lectured.
"Yes, mom." She responded with an eye roll.
"Well, gee." Butters rubbed his knuckles together, "Aren't you worried about safety, Alice? Too many people mean someone could easily—"
"Butters," Wendy shushed him, "Not here."
"Well," Stan scratched his head, "He does have a point. I mean, we're in the company of a celebrity here."
Alice snorted, "Christ, Stan, I'm not a celebrity, I'm a fucking college student."
"Your face is plastered all over the papers." Kyle said flatly, "You're the Tony Stark of South Park, admit it."
Alice chuckled, "Do you want to be my Pepper Potts, Kyle?" She asked sweetly.
Butters pouted at that, "I thought I was Pepper!"
She reached over to pat his head, "You are, hun. Now be a good secretary and get me another mocha."
Kyle rolled his eyes as Butters actually got up to go get it. "I'm hesitant to be seen with you anymore." He admitted.
"That's actually insulting." Alice frowned, "I'm perfectly fine, I have protection."
"But what about those that associate with you?" Kyle questioned. "Where's our protection? I mean we could easily become victims of Professor Chaos and his Minions if he ever decided to set his sights on you."
"Like Professor Chaos would ever go after Alice!" Wendy reasoned, "It's the Japanese Mafia that I'm worried about."
Alice shot her glare at Wendy, "What?"
"Your GIT-designs are cause for concern, Alice." She said honestly, "Criminal activity will be cut significantly if your technology goes mainstream, and that puts a giant target on your back."
Stan glanced at Wendy, "She kinda has a point, Al. We really can't be seen with you anymore, for our own safety."
Alice's eyes widened, "What the fuck is this, a breaking up party? I thought we were friends!" She cried out.
"We've actually been talking about this for a couple of weeks after the death threat, Alice." Kyle said honestly, "I'm sure it's fun for you, being this super genius that might change the world, but I don't want to wake up someday and have to deal with the politics of what your inventions will eventually do."
Wendy nodded, frowning, "We're sorry, Alice."
"Did I miss anythin'?" Butters finally returned with Alice's cup, smiling brightly.
"I'm being dropped like a hot potato, Buttercup." Alice glared at the other three, looking desperately at Butters, "Please tell me you're not breaking up with me too!"
"Oh, geeze…" Butters finally looked at the others, "I told you that you were gonna hurt her feelings, guys."
Kyle pursed his lips, looking over at Wendy but staying firm on his decision.
Alice couldn't believe this was happening, feeling tears pricking the corners of her eyes, "I try to do good for humanity and I get thrown to the curb." She said mostly to herself, looking back at Butters sadly, "So what, is this your goodbye too?" She gestured to the cup of coffee he gotten her.
Butters sat back down, breathing in. "N-not really, Al. Unlike some people," He looked over at Kyle and Wendy and Stan, "I really don't like choosin' between my friends. I ain't gonna abandon you like other people will." He said it with an edge of bitterness towards the other three, narrowing his eyes slightly.
If anything, that's what made Alice start to cry. She pulled him forward and clung to him, burying her head in his shoulder.
Kyle just felt bad now, but he was determined not to let it sway him. He got up, gesturing for Wendy to follow him. Stan was the last to leave, feeling extra guilty. "Sorry, dude." He said quietly, chasing after Wendy.
Butters ignored them, whispering calming words into Alice's ear as he hugged her.
So much for Kyle being Mysterion.
Butters was the most considerate boy she's ever befriended, offering to drive her back home. It was amazing how much a simple cafe mocha could calm her nerves, with an extra helping of supportive hugs from her blond friend. Alice smiled at him from the passenger's seat, knowing immediately that something was up as he turned a different corner from the college. Instead of going there, he went farther out of town to a well known lookout spot, somewhere that was a private place to coo-noodle, or that's what Butters had told her.
They were the only ones up here, and Alice pulled on a grin. "Buttercup, are you trying to get to third base with me?" She teased, unable to help it.
Butters actually laughed, "I actually thought you'd like to talk about it." He said softly, "You never said anythin' about what happened and I know how it works, Al. If you hold it all in, then it's gonna come out all ugly." He leaned forward to pop open his glove box, pulling out a half-empty bottle of peppermint schnapps.
Alice gasped, reaching over to touch it, "Buttercup, offering alcohol to a minor!" She grinned then, "You're full of surprises."
Butters seemed to blush at that, "I ain't no innocent kitten, Alice. I'm in college too, yanno." He tried to smile, gesturing to the bottle. "Go ahead, I'm drivin'."
Alice brought the bottle closer to herself, unscrewing it and putting the opening to her lips. It was a warm embrace, sweet like he was. She licked her lips after swallowing a bit of it, sighing. "I'm not gonna fall for it." She said then, smirking. "This is a trap to get me to talk about my feelings."
Butters unbuckled his seat to shift towards her, "Alice, it ain't healthy to keep it bottled up!" He insisted, frowning. "Your friends just dumped you, aren't ya angry?"
"It doesn't matter if I'm angry, Buttercup…" She croaked out, taking another sip and turning away. "They don't feel safe around me, it's a logical explanation. I can't really find fault for them doing that!"
Butters nodded, "It still ain't right, Al." He said softly, "Real friends would stick by you no matter what." He reasoned.
She took a bigger sip of the alcohol then, "Well, I guess I know who's really real, then." She said bitterly, tearing up again. "I…I just want to do good in the world." She whispered.
He nodded quietly, laying a consoling hand on her thigh. "I'm sorry you had to go through this, I really am. They tried to talk me out of stayin' with ya, too."
Alice watched him, the tears falling from her face, "T..they…?" The revelation had her taking another drink, a full mouthful this time. The warmth was consoling, and she loved how sweet it was. It relaxed her even more and kept her from feeling worse, which was a plus. "That's…" She failed to respond to what he said, unable to word how awful it was.
Butters squeezed her thigh gently, sighing, "I don't know Alice, it was really rotten for them to do that. I don't really like them that much for deciding to do it in a public place." He spat the last part out bitterly, looking bothered.
She sighed, "I…really don't like them for springing it up on me." She said softly, "I mean, I'd rather you ghost me and cut off all connection, just end it all quick, yanno? I don't want to just sit there and force myself to listen to all the reasons why you want to leave me!" She wiped the tears from her face after that.
"I wouldn't do any of that, Al." Butters reassured her, smiling slightly. "You're a wonderful, beautiful girl, nothin' would keep me away from you."
Alice giggled at that, smiling. She was pleasantly drunk now, his words like honey in her ear. "You're my favorite, Buttercup." She said quietly, like it was a secret. "I want to take you home and see just how innocent you are sometimes, yanno?" She caught herself after that, giggling again, "Pretend you didn't hear that, you'll probably lecture me."
The hand on her thigh rose slightly higher, kneading the flesh below his palm. "I told ya, Al. I'm not innocent…" He whispered, "The most fun thing is letting you talk about porn, do ya really like those things, Al?"
She grinned at that, "I'm a human being, Butters, of course I like those things." Her eyes widened slightly, a thought entering her head and making her giggle again. "Yanno I always wanted to do that, too, just try anything. I thought about being a porn star once." She laughed now.
Butters joined her on the laugh, shaking his head. "I can't see that, Al. You're too smart, an' I wouldn't dream of sharing you with anyone else." His honey voice was even sweeter now. "Do ya…wanna go back to your place, or mine?" He asked then, leaning in to kiss her gently on the cheek.
Alice leaned into the kiss, smiling. "Ah, how about yours, I have a superhero spying on me." She winked conspiringly, "Mysterion, he likes to complain."
Butters nodded at that, sitting forward and buckling himself in again. "That's good to know, Alice." He said thoughtfully, pulling out from the hill and making his way back into town.
Alice wasn't patient about it, gradually leaning over to kiss under Butters' ear, her free hand boldly reaching forward to graze at the crotch of his jeans. Butters gasped at that, swallowing a moan before it could escape and doing his best to concentrate on the road. "Be patient…" He said it mostly to himself than to her, enduring her teasing lips as she giggled against him.
The way she made the sound of appraisal in the back of her throat had him groaning again, because now she could feel his erection and her hand was exploring the prominent bulge in his pants. He continued to focus, wishing that he could just pull over and take her there, but in the middle of town was the worst place to do such a thing and he wanted to make this last.
He came to a stop near an apartment complex across town from the college, tearing himself away from Alice just enough to leave the vehicle. She already looked determined, grinning at him deviously as she exited her end to follow him into the building. She was magnetic, leaning into him as soon as he took her hand and pushing him against the entrance door so she could attack his neck with her mouth. Butters sighed at the contact, but he couldn't give in just yet. All he needed to do was return the gesture, but if he did that then they'd never get anywhere. He chuckled breathlessly and eased her back, his hand releasing hers so he could hook it around her waist.
"Be patient…" He said in her ear, smiling when she pouted at him. His words made her hesitant, but she finally held herself back long enough for him to lead her through the doors and into the elevator. The tension inside the lift was the worst, and Butters continued to whisper in her ear, honey sweet words that made her whimper and gasp. The hand around her waist fell down to her ass and promptly squeezed the left side of her cheek, making her jump in place before he lead her back out of the elevator and down the hall.
He managed to get the key in without being held hostage by her mouth, easing themselves into the dark room and shutting the door. It was a silent agreement to move forward, and Alice took it, pushing him against the door again and moving to continue sucking on the part of his neck that he kept her from finishing, her hands slipping down below his waistband to graze her fingers along his erection. He shuddered at the touch, as it was almost electrifying with her skin against his. He worked on unbuttoning his pants, a silent plea for her to go further.
"Oh Alice," He breathed, "You have no idea what you're getting yourself into." He warned her playfully, moving to kiss her deeply, "You have no idea what I've been dreaming about." He continued, placing hot kisses on her neck now. He managed to turn them around, pressing her against the door so he could place tender kisses along her collarbone, his hands slipping under her pants to tease her between her legs.
Butters smiled, pulling off his pants to leave them at the door and moving to pull hers off. He stood back up to take her lips again, kissing her gently this time. "I want all of you." He whispered.
Alice was getting flushed, staring at Butters in an entirely different light, "I…would like that." She said honestly, moving to kiss him again. After today, the offer of companionship was something she really desired, and the fact that it was Butters made it something extra special.
Butters lead her back to his room, moving to pull her shirt off as soon as they were past the threshold. She did the same with his coat, amused that he was still wearing that coat, working on his shirt afterward before pressing herself against him for another kiss. Butters cradled her head against his own, coaxing her lips open so their tongues could explore, making the kiss slow and needy as he brushed his arousal against her thigh. He was already hard again, chuckling when she moaned into his mouth.
Butters broke free for a moment, "Do…we need protection?" He asked, rubbing the back of her neck.
Alice giggled slightly, "I have an IUD implant, if you're clean?" She questioned.
He grinned at that, "What about you?"
"Inventing doesn't give me time to fool around, Buttercup." She said playfully, smirking. "All that porn I tell you about, that's my free time."
"You naughty girl." He breathed, kissing her again. She pressed back against the kiss, sighing when he dipped his fingers between her legs again. He began to slide two into her, curling and flexing his fingers inside of her and drinking in her pleasing moans to his ministrations. He smirked, adding a third finger to the mix and slowly thrusting into her, "Do you like that?" He asked.
Alice sighed, "I'd love to feel your dick in there, honestly." She breathed, "But then you don't know about my collection of sex toys…" She managed a laugh at his reaction.
"You won't really need those anymore," He said softly, easing his fingers out and pressing himself against her. Pressing into her was like pressing into hot velvet, and he groaned, feeling how tight she was around him and equally wet, moving himself inside of her was smooth. He pressed as far as he could go, burying his entire cock inside of her and drinking up the whimpers she was giving him. He leaned down to press kisses to her skin, enjoying the feeling of his cock inside of her before beginning to move.
He was slow, at first, thrusting into her at a snails pace and finding a rhythm he could work on. When she began to beg for more he complied, easing his thrusts faster and fuller. It was better than he ever imagined, having her under him begging for more. He was happy to give her more and make sure she wouldn't ever think of anything other than him.
Alice had a feeling that Butters was right, the harder he fucked her the more she realized that she wouldn't even touch her sex toys again, how his cock fit inside her the right way and filled her up so easily. She didn't know if she could ever feel this way with anyone else, because holy fuck he was so hot this way. Her little Buttercup was a minx in disguise, with a baby face and a silver tongue that made her wet just by whispering dirty things into her ear. She wondered if it was possible to have a fetish for a single person, because he was proving to be the biggest fetish in her mind.
Butters was dangerously close, his thrusting was harder now, as hard as he could get without hurting her. He knew she was close from the way she was pleading to him to go even harder. Her hips were bucking against his in erratic movements, and he could feel her walls contract as she screamed, his name falling from her lips like a prayer, enough to send him over the edge because she wasn't just screaming out Butters, she screamed out Leopold. He couldn't stop his own climax, breathing out her name as he pumped his own come deep into her. Alice whimpered when he did, her eyes wide as he drained himself inside of her.
She pulled him forward for a passionate kiss after that, lazily licking along his lips and moving with him as he shifted to lie next to her. They continued to kiss each other slowly long after, until exhaustion overtook them and they ended up sleeping in each others arms.
