Chapter 1

It was two weeks before spring break. Stan, Wendy, Kyle, Bebe, Kenny and Kelly wanted to go somewhere together for spring break, they just needed to decide on where.

"We should all go to California for spring break!" Kyle suggested. He was sitting in the cafeteria at lunch with Bebe, Stan and Wendy.

"That sounds like fun!" Bebe agreed. Wendy rolled her eyes; Bebe would agree with anything that Kyle said.

"We could drive down and make it a road trip" Stan added, "we could use my van" he continued speaking of the van he got from his parents for his seventeenth birthday. The van was not new but it was is very good condition.

"Hey," said Kenny, sitting down with his friends. "That damn Nelly keeps trying to get me to sit with her at lunch."

"Isn't she going out with Clyde?" Kyle asked. Wendy and Bebe laughed.
"What's so funny?" Stan demanded

"Isn't it obvious? Nelly is only going out with Clyde to make Kenny jealous!" Bebe breathed

"Well it isn't going to work," Kenny snorted

"Aww, don't tell her you have a girlfriend, it's really funny to watch her try and get your attention!" Bebe laughed

"Fine, just as long as Kelly never finds out." Kenny said

"Anyway" Wendy cut in, "We were thinking about taking a road trip to California for Spring break, Kelly can come to, of course."

"That sounds great!" Kenny agreed, he knew that road trips were not very expensive, he already worked every weekend. But he was most excited about the fact that Kelly could come, their long distance relationship had not been working out to well. He used to visit her every weekend, but lately he had been working weekends. Sure she visited him, but she was getting tired of hanging around a foreign town while he worked. She began to come for less and less time, now she only came every other weekend. Maybe they were growing apart. Kenny tried not to think about this as he walked to his next class.

After school the five teens walked to Stan's house to continue planning. Kenny walked behind the two couples, he watched them holding hands. He felt left out and whished that things were going better with Kelly. He was glad that they would be spending spring break together, maybe they could fix their relationship.

"Kenny!" kyle called looking back at his friend, "What are you doing back there, come on!" Kenny looked up, he was surprised at how far behind he was. As he caught up to them he noticed that Stan and Wendy had their heads together. Stan was whispering something and Wendy was giggling. Kenny looked at his shoes, he began to feel awkward standing between the two couples.

"My parents made me promise that we have two rooms, one for the boys and one for the girls. At least this will help us save money." Wendy said

"That sound good." Stan commented. Bebe stared at the couple with a confused look.

"You two are pretty much married and you don't even want to share a room together?" Bebe asked

"We are not married!" Wendy replied, then she looked up at Stan "at least, not yet" she smiled. Stan looked down at her and gave her a kiss. Bebe rolled her eyes. Those tow are so confusing, she thought.

"Anyway!" Kenny said, clearing his throat. "Getting back to the trip planning." he snapped

"Geeze Kenny." Kyle said in surprise. "What's matter with you?"

"Nothing," Kenny replied. "I just thought we were here to discuss the trip."

"Isn't that what we're doing?" Stan asked, giving Kenny a confused look.

"No, you weren't. I should just go home," Kenny replied

"Seriously, dude, what's your problem?" Kyle asked

"Nothing!" Kenny snapped, "I just think I should go home now," he finished as he walked to the door.

"Something is definitely wrong," Kyle concluded after Kenny left.

"Oh my god! You guys are so blind!" Bebe laughed "Can't you tell what is going on?"

"umm Kenny is pissed off at us?" Stan offered

"Stan?!" Wendy cried, giving him a light punch on the arm, "You don't see it either?"

"What are we supposed to be seeing?" kyle cried

"It's so obvious," Bebe said with a sigh "Kenny is upset because he is having a rough time with his girlfriend." she explained

"How did you come to that conclusion?" Stan asked skeptically

"It's right in front of you. When we were talking about the trip at lunch, Kenny was happy and excited. As soon as we mentioned Kelly, he became all sulky and he left."

"yeah well, the bell had just rung, maybe he was bummed he had to got to class." Stan countered. Wendy rolled her eyes.

"When we were walking home, he didn't talk, he just sort of shuffled along behind us. We were holding hands and so were Stan and Wendy."

"He probably just felt like a third, or fifth, wheel." Kyle objected, Bebe sighed.

"If you guys are just going to deny the obvious then listen to the last clue." Bebe said

"When Stan and I kissed, Kenny became jealous." Wendy said

"of what?" Stan asked in disbelief

"he was jealous of the fact that our relationship is going well when his is not." Kyle and Stan stared at the girls in shock.
