Yours to Hold

Kyle's P.O.V.

I watched Stan stand at his locker. Today was the day. I was going to confess to him that I was in love with him. Ever since the eighth grade when my parents filed for divorce Stan had been there. The night I showed up on his door step crying he hugged me and let me talk the whole night to him. I fell in love with him as I fell asleep nuzzled in his arms. Now I just had to tell him. It looked like a good time because he was there alone but what was stopping me? Then I heard it.

" Stan," Wendy called.

" Hey Wendy," Stan replied.

I hid behind Kenny's open locker door. I listened to their conversation and felt my heart sink. Wendy had asked Stan out...Again! What the hell?! My heart gave a squeeze of pain as I peeked at Stan's face. His cheeks were red and he looked odd. Oh No! What was he going to say?

" I'll think about it Wendy. I just don't know," He said.

I didn't want to hear anymore so I took off running. Tears slid down my face and I heard footsteps running behind me.

" Kyle, wait up," Kenny yelled.

I stopped and let him catch up with me. Kenny's blue eyes stared into mine. He wrapped his arms around me and patted my back.

" Sorry, dude. Want me to kick his ass," Kenny tried to make me laugh.

" No man. It's okay. If he's happy that's all that matters," I tried to smile.

Kenny dragged me out of the school, passing almost all of our friends on the way. He sat down with me on the front lawn of the school and let me lean against him as I took deep steadying breaths. Stan was just so out of reach and I felt him slipping through my fingers. Kenny sat with me until he was sure I was going to be okay. Then we walked into class late. The teacher took one look at my face and excused our tardiness. Unfortunately so did Cartman and Stan. Stan was concerned but Cartman just began ripping just began ripping on me. That was just to much to deal with so I asked to go to the nurse and left Cartman alone. What? Weirder things have happened than me passing up a chance to kick Cartman's ass.

When the bell rang I went to my locker and grabbed my coat. Stan's locker was next to mine cause we were super best friends. That's all we would ever be...Friends!

" Hey Ky, want to walk together today?" Stan asked me.

" Umm...I have to pick up Ike from the middle school," I answered.

" Oh okay. Umm...maybe some other time then. Listen, I wanted to know if there was anything wrong with you?" Stan asked.

" Kyle," Wendy's voice sounded.

" Huh? Oh, Wendy. What's up?" I tried to smile.

" I need to talk to you. Can we walk to the middle school together?" She asked.

" Sure," I said.

" Oh I gotta go. Kenny just texted me," Stan looked down.

" Kay. Later," I frowned.

" Later," He turned and left.

Wendy and I left the school together. I couldn't help but feel a bit jealous of her. I wonder what she needs to tell me.
