During gym Kyle had trouble focusing. All he could think about was Cartman. Oh how he couldn't hide the fact he was surprised. But Cartman didn't bother to notice. Plus he shouldn't get his hopes up. 'He may not be a tub of lard anymore, but he's probably still an asshole. For now I should avoid him.' That much decided. Kyle went back into the game of flying balls. was so happy he allowed us to break from track and do dodgeball.

After gym recess started. All the girls rushed out of classes to gossip or wait on Cartman. All Kyle could do was groan. So many whores and sluts. World would be better without- Suddenly Kyle's heart froze. "Hey Kyle." Cartman said with a smile as he passed by. The girls were silent. As soon as Cartman turned the corner they made chase for the brunette.

"Kyle? Jeez you look like you saw a ghost." Stan said as he aapproached the Jewish boy. "Stan...he said hi to me." Stan looked confused then understood who "He" was. "So?" Stan said. "He says hi to you. Big deal." Suddenly Kyle [Even though he had to stand on tippy-toes..] Grabbed Stan by his jacket and shook him back and forth. "He said my name! He didn't call me a Jew!" Kyle didn't notice he was squealing with happiness intil he heard his echo in the halls.

"Kyle! You're killing him!" A muffled voice said as soon as Kyle was separated from Stan. Stan shook a bit before shaking his head and rejoining the world. "You've got a mean grip Kyle. .." Stan said still dizzy. "Yeah. And a really good girlie squeal. I heard it all the way from the library." Kyle blushed looking down. "Cartman said hi and didn't call him a jew. Then he almost killed me." Suddenly Kenny chuckled. "Someone has a crush." Kyle pushed Kenny aside even though he knew Kenny was just teasing. Kyle muttered a 'Shut up' before he left to leave his stuff at math.
