2 Atoms In a Molecule
South Park

Packing was easy, seeing as neither of the teens had much to pack. His mother was surpisingly calm about the situation. She felt as if she was giving her blessing towards the two when Ike announced that he would be leaving for vacation. He didn't really know how that worked out in his favor. Shelia always seemed to be against moving to Canada. She never really set right with the place after the war. Perhaps this time she knew that Ike would just venture off on his own even if she protested. Either way, it was a nice end to the ongoing feud between them. She allowed him to go without any conflict. It was nice, actually.

After another rib cracking hug, Shelia waved the two goodbye. Kyle wasn't there to see him off-of course, he was spending the night over at Bebe's house and probably was clueless about the proposal. He never really knew what he say in Bebe. It was probably the killer rack and easy sex. Ike rubbed the back of his neck nervously in thought of that. The thought of his brother fucking was a little more than revolting. He flickered his gaze towards Karen, giving her a rather toothy grin. "You ready?"

Karen gave him a strange look. She returned the smile after a bit and nodded. "You seem to be ready enough for the both of us."

"My bad," Ike raised his hands, protesting his innocence. He clicked in his seatbelt and returned his hands to the wheel. He glanced over at Shelia, who already heading back inside. The grin on his lips faded a bit from that. She really didn't want to stay out too long, did she? He backed the car out in the driveway, giving a wave to his dad. Gerald waved back reassuringly before taking a step back inside. Ike pulled off towards the interstate, giving a coy glance towards Karen.

"So, did you tell your parents about this?" He asked her simply. Frankly, it was the only thing he was worried about for the trip. Stuart would definately blow up, accusing his daughter over some crazy fiasco to reason why she would ever want to leave him. Karen's expression didn't reassure the fact that everything went smoothly. She chewed on her lip in anxiety. That was always a habit of her's. He seemed to notice it in everyone. Georgie would scratch his wrist whenever he felt stressed or nervous. Filmore would tap his shoe. Ruby would simply go straight to short retorts and avoiding glances. Flora would furrow her brows nervously and stammer a lot. Everyone had their quirks. Karen's just seemed to be biting her lip until it bled sometimes.

"It didn't exsactly go over smooth with Dad. Mom was pretty happy about it though!" Karen glanced at him, her voice rising in pitch when she tried to reason a positive outcome.

"What did he do this time?" Ike asked her, pursing his lips as he drove.

"Well, I thought it would be better to tell them in person-since I really don't know when I'll be back." Karen flicked her gaze towards his, her teeth well pressed into her lip. "And I told Mom first, because she was the first to answer the door. We sat down and talked a little...Dad came home from work. I still don't know why he even has a job. He does nothing at work from what I've seen. Oh well, at least it gets the bills paid. But-uh-he didn't like the idea too much. He accused me of being pregnant, saying it was the only reason I would move away. I reassured him that I wasn't. It still didn't really occur to him that I'm not my brother. Jesus, I think I'm the only virgin in that family. But, yeah-fun."

She tapped her fingers together, glancing up at Ike with a small reassuring smile. He knew that she didn't want to make a big deal out of it. And seeing as it was more common with the McCormick family to attack than listen, he just sighed. "He's an idiot."

"I know, but that really isn't his fault. He just couldn't stay off drugs long enough to graduate. 'Snot his fault." Karen replied happily, clasping her hands together. He swore the girl was too good for anyone. Too nice. He rose a brow at her, but didn't really push further to point out the logic of her sentence. He shrugged it off, finding it hard that this girl was the one he was competing with in class ranks. She was a brillant girl, but she was just too naive for her own good. Of course, she has probably been through too much to even count. She still held a blind faith in people. She believed that there was good people in the world, despite how much shit people gave her.

He has barely even seen her angry, once he thought about it. The only time did she ever explode out at someone was Kyle. It was unexpected, but pretty hilarious. It was after the fallout of their sibling's relationship. Kyle and Kenny had an intense on and off relationship. After the final break, Kenny came to her in pieces. Kyle had told him that he was tired of the whole thing. He wanted something more meaningful, at least that's what he told Ike. He was never sure of the real reason why they broke up. He suspected Kenny's unfaithfulness, seeing at the repitation the boy had as some kind of sex god. Anywho, Kenny poured his heart out to his little sister. She comforted him, much how he did whenever she cried. She was protective of her brother. So, the next time Ike and her hung out, Kyle and Kenny were strung together once agian. All the two did was bicker the entire visit at his house. Karen finally had enough and snapped at Kyle for making a rude remark. It was hilarious to Ike, seeing his brother panicked and paled towards a girl much shorter than him. She screamed at him for being insulting. He didn't fight back. Who would? Ike had barely even seen her angry before this situation. This was the first blow up for any of them to see, well, expect Kenny. Let's just say after this little scream feast, the two boys were very kind or silent towards each other whenever Karen was around. He hasn't seen her that angry in a while.

"Do you mind if I turn on the radio?" Karen asked him, interrupting his thoughts. Ike shook his head in response. Luckily enough, the two had the same music taste. She plugged in his iPod, scrolling through his artist list.

She tapped on their playlist they made together. It started out as both of them sending songs to each other that reminded of them. Though, the songs just proved to be useless after a while and prone to perversion. He was sure the last song in the playlist was some kind of sex song Karen sent him. A small smile strung on his lips when she began playing a song. It was another San Cisco song. Karen flashed a wide smile to him. He laughed in response as the girl began to dance along with the beat in her seat. She belted out the lyrics in an odd harmony. He sung along with her, finding himself overally amused with the situation at hand.

A sign flashed past them, 'Leaving Colorado'. They were on their way.
