Clyde stared out the open door, he was never a morning person as it always took his brain a good kick in the ass to start up. Yet even though he could barely understand what just happened, he knew one thing for sure, he fucked up. Stumbling off his bed and slowly stripping off his clothes as he started the shower letting the hot water pour over him. Craig had let him in, he'd never seen him be so vulnerable. Of course like an asshole he had to try to kiss him, Clyde punched the wall of the shower hard wincing at the jolt of pain. He had to fix this, what if because of his stupidity it screwed things up their friendship! Oh shit, what if it screwed shit up with Tweek! Clyde bolted out of the shower throwing some quick clothes on rushing towards the door.

"Clyde, I'm not sure whats in 'style' right now, but it is cold outside. At least put on some pants if you're not going to take a jacket." Clyde's dad chuckled from the couch as he watched the news.

Clyde quickly ran back upstairs his face flushed with color. He knew he was an airhead in the mornings but he'd never hear the end of that one from his friends. Getting dressed properly he rushed back out the door with a quick thanks and farewell to his dad. He wasn't sure where Craig would have ran off to, but a good starting point would the Tweak's coffee shop. Clyde froze as he saw Craig pressed up against Tweek in a passionate kiss. Clyde always knew they were meant for each other, so why wasn't he running over there brimming with joy yelling in excitement like he normally would? Why did his heart feel so heavy, hurt so bad that he had to clutch his chest to try to restrain the pain? Why did a stream of tears flow from his eyes, that finally forced him to run in the opposite direction?! He didn't care where he went, he just wanted to get away. Feeling each footstep getting heavier as his tears blurred his vision, he felt his food smash into a tree branch. Feeling himself begin to tumble down into the ground he put his hands out to hopefully cushion some of the fall which only resulted in a sharp pain in his wrist as his hand gave way to the weight of his body. His face smashed into the snow, luckily cushioning the fall somewhat before he shifted over to his back still crying with pain and aches covering his body.

"Clyde dude!" He heard a voice call out. "Are you okay?!"

Clyde looked up to see Stan standing over him reaching an arm out to help, "Not really," Clyde chocked out between sobs as he took Stan's hand and pulled himself off the ground.

"You look mostly alright, but were you seemed to be kind of running blindly before you fell, is everything alright?" Stan asked gently guiding Clyde over to the nearby bench if front of Stark's pond.

"It's nothing," Clyde sobbed wiping his eyes. "I'm just being stupid."

"You can trust me man, I'm not going to make fun of you even if it is stupid." Stan assured him with a smile.

"I saw Craig and Tweek making out and I freaked out okay!" Clyde exclaimed as he buried his face in his hands.

"Wait, do you have a thing for Craig dude?"

"I don't know maybe..."

"What about Bebe and all the other girls you dated?"

"I don't know I thought I liked them, but looking back I was always happiest when hanging around Craig and Kevin..."

"Wait, Kevin? Kevin Stoley?"

"Yeah..." Clyde mumbled with as his phone chimed softly alerting him of a new text message.

"Wow man, I never knew." Stan said as he leaned back on the bench looking up at the sky.

Clyde quickly checked the new message from Token telling him to get over to the coffee shop and meet up with Craig who had big news. "You know Stan, you're actually okay. Even if Craig hates you guys with a burning passion." Clyde chuckled slightly before hoping to his feet.

"Thanks, I guess." Stan responded as Clyde waved as he ran off.

"No dude I'm serious! Tweek and Craig are fucking gay for each other!" Cartman proclaimed loudly.

"Who cares if they're gay, just let them be Cartman, it's not like it affects you at all." Stan grumbled as he ate slowly trying to ignore Cartman's rude looks towards the duo.

"It is a big deal! You all may be blind to whats happening but I'm not! They're going to try to turn all of us just you watch!" Cartman yelled as he slammed his fast down onto the table.

"Fatass you're so fucking stupid you can't be turned gay, why don't you pick up a book about it if your so fucking concerned." Kyle mocked with a smug smile.

"Don't call me fat you damn jew!" Cartman snapped back. "Just you guys watch, I bet you anything there's going to be fags coming out left and right now!"

"This is so dumb, why do I even sit with you idiots." Stan mumbled poking at his food with a lost appetite. Luckily the bell rang signaling that lunch was over, as he threw his tray away Kyle grabbed his wrist and pulled him into the empty band hall.

"Dude you okay?" Kyle asked looking at his best friend with concern. "You were spacing out a lot during lunch."

"I'm fine dude, it's just this whole thing with Tweek and Craig..." Stan mumbled as he looked down at his feet.

"I know dude it's so weird! I mean Tweek doesn't even really twitch at all when Craig's around and Craig actually fucking smiles! It's crazy how easily Clyde and Token have just accepted it to!" Kyle exclaimed prattling on while Stan fidgeted uncomfortably.

"Yeah, Tweek and Craig... I wonder if Clyde will ask Kevin out now..." Stan whispered to himself.

"Why would Clyde do that?" Kyle asked puzzled by Stans question.

"Forget I said that!" Stan muttered quickly. "I've got to get to class look I'll see you after okay." Stan walked quickly away before Kyle could respond. Shit, even though Clyde didn't tell him not to tell anyone he was pretty sure that it was implied.

Clyde brimmed with joy reading over the letter in his locker again. "Dear Clyde, come meet behind the school after everyone's left. I heard you like me, and I think I like you to. Your favorite nerd, Kevin." He quickly stashed the note into his pocket and rush over his last class of the day. Luckily it was English and his seat was right next to Token. Which he took full advantage of, raving about his secret meeting after school.

"Listen all I'm saying is, don't you think it's a little weird that you just happened to get a random letter from your secret crush?" Token tried to explain.

"Hey, maybe he saw how happy our love birds are decided to ask me!" Clyde shot back with a pout.

"Look dude, all I'm trying to say here is it seems a bit odd okay!" Token snapped back quickly regretting it as Clyde looked on the verge of tears now. "I'm just trying to warn you to be cautious and know Craig and I got your back okay?" Token sighed defeat.

"Okay, thanks dude!" Clyde beamed humming to himself as he doodled in his notes like a small child. Time dragged on forever as Clyde watched the clock tick away with only a couple of minuets left before the bell rang. With both fear and anticipation he wanted to know if really did have feeling for Kevin or was it just a curious fling. Although thinking back to the small but gentle kiss with Craig he had defiantly enjoyed it. When he tried apologizing to Craig about it, he simply dismissed it as if it never happened. Insisting that he left before Clyde even woke up. He happy that it hadn't caused any problems between their friendship but still kind of hurt that he'd rather just pretend it never happened. Cylde's thoughts were broken by the loud ringing of the bell. He quickly bolted out of his chair with a quick bye to Token. He quickly made it to the back of the school where he waited alone, growing frustrated with each passing minute. As the last person cleared out he saw Kevin walking over towards him.

"H-hey Kevin!" Clyde shouted with a large smile and frantically waving his hand. Kevin walked over while looking around before quickly making his way over to Clyde.

"Soo... do I kiss you now or something?" He asked, as he avoided looking at Clyde. Clyde looked back at him slightly confused. It was what he wanted, but the look Kevin was giving him made him feel uneasy.

"If you want to I guess..." Clyde mumbled and he looked away with a slight blush. Kevin leaned forward gently and placed a quick kiss on his lips before stepping back and tossing a Tic-Tac into his mouth.

"Can I have my fucking Ipad back now?" Kevin asked with a glare.

"What...?" Clyde asked as he stepped back with a blank stare.

"Wait, you actually wanted to kiss me... shit look Clyde, I think you're a cool guy and all but I'm not into guys." Kevin explained as he reached out to put his hand on Clyde's shoulder.

"God you guys are fucking amazing! This is going to be an awesome Youtube video!" Cartman exclaimed holding a phone up recording them both.

"Screw you Cartman!" Clyde cried as he turned quickly bumping into Stan. Clyde looked at Stan wide eyed are he connected the dots in his head. Tears finally flowed freely despite his efforts to hold them back, "I hate you Stan." he mumbled before pushing past him taking off towards his house. He quickly turned the corner nearly running face first into the tall stoic boy in front of him.

"Clyde, what happened are you okay?" Craig said quickly.

"Token told us something weird was up so we came to check on you." Tweek squeaked from beside him. They looked so good together, even if didn't show it with his expressionless face you could tell he was happy. Tweek had stopped shacking and even seemed more confident in himself, all this just added to the pain that clutched around Clyde's heart.

"I just want to go home..." Clyde sobbed as Craig reluctantly moved to let him pass. He ran quickly down the sidewalk not stopping to entire way. He rushed into his house throwing himself on his bed and burying himself under his covers. Feeling safe he sobbed quietly into pillow clutching to tightly. Just wishing he'd be able to avoid everyone and never go back to school again he slowly drifted asleep.

"What the hell did you do!?" Stan yelled with clutched fist as he glared at Cartman and Kyle. Cartman kept laughing while Kyle shifted in his steps giving Stan the look when he knew he'd taken a joke way to far.

Cartman tosses Kevin his Ipad, "We were just having fun with the Clyde and his little nerdy crush." Cartman chuckled to himself.

"You fucking told him?!" Stan asked in disbelief, he couldn't believe that Kyle would be stupid enough to tell Cartman let alone involve himself in some cruel joke.

"Look man Clyde over reacted its not a big deal." Kyle retorted with a slight shrug as if he did nothing wrong.

"I..." Stan looked down remember the look on Clyde's no one deserved to have their feelings played with like that. Worst yet though, his best friend didn't even really seem to care that he'd hurt not just Clyde but him as well. "Don't talk to me anymore." Stan mumbled just audibly enough for them to hear before taking off after Clyde. He called out to Clyde as he turned the corner feeling his weight being quickly shifted off balance as his back smashed into the wall of the school.

"You and you're fucking gang of friends need to stay the fuck away from Clyde!" Craig growled viciously. Craig was clearly only restraining himself due to the presence of Tweek holding onto his arm tightly.

"I just wanted to say..." Stan started before he was cut off by a sharp punch to the gut.

"You don't get to say shit to him anymore!" Craig snarled loudly before crouching down slightly to Stan's eye level. "Do you fucking understand?!"

Stan simply nodded slowly as Craig finally let him go retaking Tweek's hand and walking away without another word.

"Dude are you okay?" Kyle said as he walked towards Stan.

"I told you not to talk to me anymore!" Stan yelled back tears starting to swell up in his eyes. "We're done don't you get it!" Stan smacked Kyle's hand away that he had reached out with as he steadied himself and walked away struggling with his internal conflict to just turn around and forgive him. He couldn't forgive Kyle for this one, he'd gone way to far this time. Stan wasn't sure what hurt more, losing his best friend, or giving up on his best friend to Cartman's influence.

Clyde walked into the school cafeteria grabbing his usually breakfast tacos and settling down across from Craig and Tweek. He ate quietly trying his best not to make eye contact with any of his friends.

"So you want to talk about what happened yesterday?" Craig blurted out breaking the silence.

"Not really." Clyde mumble as he took another bit of his taco chewing it intentionally slowly.

"Nngh Clyde we're just a little worried, you're usually never the quite." Tweek explained as he twitched slightly, an obvious sign that the change had cause him to become anxious.

"It's nothing reall-"

"Have you guys heard!" Wendy exclaimed loudly interrupting Clyde much to his relief. "Stand split off and is sitting alone! I heard Kyle even tried to apologize and he just ignored him completely, I can't believe those two would fight after being friends for so long!"

"That's great Wendy, I've got some gossip for you as well." Craig said coolly as he lifted his middle finger up to her face.

"You're such a asshole Craig!" She yelled storming off quickly to go spread her gossip to anyone who'd listen.

"Now that the bitch is gone, want to finish telling us why you were so upset yesterday?" Craig asked.

"I just remembered I was suppose to return something to someone." Clyde lied unconvincingly but got up before his friends could protest. Quickly scanning the cafeteria he found Stan sitting in the corner alone. Taking a deep breath Clyde made his way across and stood across from Stan who looked up at him with confused and sad eyes. "Mind if I sit here?" Clyde quickly asked with a hesitant smile.

Stan looked passed him at Craig who was giving him a cold stare, with the look he was giving him it wouldn't surprise Stan if he mysteriously went missing, but he owed it to Clyde to at least apologize for fucking up. "Not at all man," Stan responded with a warm smile.

Clyde sat down and ate slowly with a timid smile as he mulled over what to say. "I'm sorry about saying I hated you." he mumbled quietly.

"It's okay man, I kind of deserved it." Stan said with a weak smile. "How about I tell you a secret to make up for it?"

"If you really want to man, but you don't have to." Clyde responded quietly.

"I was kind of jealous of Kevin I guess." Stan mumbled as he looked down nervously wringing his hands together.

"I don't see why you'd be jealous of him but it's cool man." Clyde laughed.

"Holy shit, he likes you dumbass, I'm sorry dude but at the rate this was going it was going to take until the end of the day for you guys to say it." Kenny grumbled as he moved it sit down next to Stan earning him a strong glare.

"Wait, you... like me?" Clyde whispered in disbelief to himself.

Stan nodded slowly, "I always thought you were kind of cute, and the way you're always trying to help people out is really cool" he explained with flushed cheeks.

"I wouldn't mind trying to see where this goes, I mean besides Token you're the first person I've felt comfortable enough to talk about the fact that I might be..." Clyde paused looking around the room quickly to make sure no one else was listening, "Gay." he finally muttered.

"I'm bi, don't be nervous about it man. I get ass no matter who's it is!" Kenny boasted loudly.

"Dude, shut up Jesus!" Stan hissed at Kenny, looking over at Clyde who was slouching down in his seat. "We don't have to come out and hold hands all the time, we can just take it slow and when you feel comfortable with it and want to tell anyone else we can do it together." Stan whispered.

Clyde sat silently looking over at where Kevin was sitting, then back at his group of friends where Craig and Tweek where sitting as close as possible while holding hands. It dawned on him, that he shouldn't be nervous about people knowing he liked guys. "What if I wanted to go back and sit with my friends..." Clyde mumbled as he looked up at Stan, "Bringing you with me holding your hand and showing off that we're the new hot gay couple in town now!" He beamed with excitement.

"That would be badass." said as they got up linking their hands together.

"Yo, what about your boy Kenny here! You're not going to make me hang out with those two by myself are you?" Kenny pleaded with puppy dog eyes.

"As long as you don't piss Craig off I don't see why not." Clyde answered as Kenny got up quickly following behind them.

"Damn that's all it would take to get into the group! I would've ditched this loser a long time ago then!" Kenny chuckled as he threw his arm around Stan.
