I was so excited to start this idea, even though I have craploads of homework to do, a broken keyboard (which makes this story incredibly difficult to type), and so much stuff I need to do. But its just SUCH a good idea! And seriously, how can I not write it?

Summary: Because the cheese stands alone…

Inspired by Robert Cormier's book, I am the Cheese…amazing book, the best summer reading I ever had. And I don't own it, well, I own a copy, but not the rights to it. Or South Park. But you knew that already.

This is the prologue, its how the boys all met, of course, and is nothing compared to the story I'm going to tell…I'm so excited!

FYI This is all in Kenny's POV, even if it seems like 3rd person at times, you'll notice that Kenny is never referred to in third person, so it works.

I Am The Cheese

"The farmer in the dell,

The farmer in the dell-"

We were in preschool.

Finally, an escape from the place called "home."

I didn't quite know what to do with myself when I got there. Everyone was playing and had friends. I didn't know anyone aside from the fat kid who kept making fun of me and my family.

I tried to play with lots of kids but no one would let me in their games.

I had tried everyone, well, everyone except the two loners in the corner.

They weren't really loners, because they had each other, but they didn't want anyone else. The other kids just ignored them after a while. No use in trying to be friends with some who didn't really care.

They were oblivious to the world. Well, maybe not the whole world, but at least a good portion of the class. So when I walked over to them and interrupted their secret game, they were surprised, to say the least.

It didn't matter to me. If they were okay with me just sitting there in their company, I wouldn't even bother them. I didn't have anyone and I was lonely for a friend. No one would play with the poor little kid who didn't say anything. They were my last resort, but they didn't seem so bad...right?

After the initial shock of a new friend, the two boys made room for me and we started playing the blocks. I found out that the red haired kid was Kyle and the black haired kid was Stan. They knew each other for a long, long time. It was really obvious that they were best friends and didn't need anything other then each other. They didn't need me to play with them; they were just being nice to the lonely kid.

But I appreciated it.

"Hi-ho the derry-o,

The farmer in the dell."

Prologue done, story is on its way and so much better! Tell me what you think so far 
