Chapter 2
Stan stood
on the doorstep for a while to catch his breath. Then he turned
around and started making his way to Kyle's house. He turned on his
phone and saw he had four missed calls, all from Kyle. He dialed
Kyle's number.
"Dude! Where the hell are you?" Kyle
demanded instantly
"Sorry I lost track of time with Wendy at the
park," he replied slightly embarrassed
"Stan, I'm beginning
to feel like you don't have time for your best friend
anymore."
"Dude, I'm sorry, I'm on my way over right
now!"
"Don't bother; I'll meet you on the way to
Clyde's."
"Okay" Stan ended the call, and then dialed
another number.
"Hey!" Wendy answered
"Hey are your
parents asleep yet?" Stan asked
"Yeah…"
"Good, meet
me at Clyde's"
"See you then, love you"
"Love
you"
Stan saw Kyle walking toward the party house.
"KYLE!"
he yelled across the street
"Oh hey dude." Kyle responded
"I'm
really sorry, I really just lost track of time" Stan apologized
"Must be nice to have a girlfriend like that" Kyle said,
looking at the ground
"Aww dude don't start this."
"What
do you mean, can't I be happy for you"
"Well sure you're
acting happy, but you seem sulky"
"Maybe that is because there
are no girls that like me! They you go and brag about how you were
with Wendy."
"I never bragged, besides plenty of girls like
you!"
"Oh ya, name them!"
"Well there is Bebe…"
"Ugh"
"And I'm pretty sure that Red likes you"
"Whatever
Stan"
"Why don't you go on a double date with me and Wendy,
you should ask Bebe"
"All right" Kyle said with a hint of
optimism. Stan was surprised by his sudden change in mood
"Great,
Next Saturday"
When Stan and Kyle appeared on Clyde's doorstep
the party was already in full swing. Craig answered the
door, clearly wasted. They walked and saw many of their classmates;
Clyde was sitting in the middle of a couch with a bunch of other
girls around him.
"See Red doesn't like me." Remarked
Kyle. Stan looked over to see her with her head resting on
Kevin's shoulder and Kevin had his arm around her.
"Kyle!"
Somebody squealed. He looked over at Stan
"Go ahead"
his friend said
"Uhh Bebe"
"Yes Kyle!" Bebe replied
hopefully
"I was wondering if you maybe wanted…" Bebe's
eyes widened "Wanted to go on a double date with Stan and Wendy?"
he finished
"Of course I do Kyle!!" Bebe shrieked and wrapped
her arms around Kyle's neck
"See that worked out" Stan
remarked
"Hey Stan!" Wendy had appeared beside him and linked
her fingers with his
"Hey baby" Stan replied and kissed her
"Since when is Kyle with Bebe?" she asked, eyeing their
friends
"Uhh like thirty seconds ago, they are double dating
with us on Saturday." Stan said with a laugh.
"Okay, sounds
like fun."
With that they ventured further into the party
together
