Chapter 4: Relationships
"Wendy dumped me again, dude," Stan said as he walked into Kyle's room, sounding as mopey as ever.
"What? I thought you guys were doing great and that finally, you might actually be for real this time. You celebrated your 18 month anniversary two weeks ago!" Kyle exclaimed, feeling horribly for his friend and very angry at Wendy for the sudden act.
Stan and Wendy had started dating again in the eighth grade after she dumped Token at the junior high homecoming dance. As usual, it was their on-off relationship. These past 18 months were the longest Stan and Wendy were ever together.
"That's the thing, Ky. One day, she's all lovey-dovey with me, and then the next, she says that we're just not working out anymore. I mean, where did I go wrong?" Stan asks in complete sadness.
"You didn't do anything wrong, Stan. You're the most loyal, honest, faithful, and decent person I know. If you didn't work out for her, it's her problem. Either she has major issues or maybe she didn't truly love you at all," Kyle said, sitting next to Stan and wrapping an arm tightly around his best friend.
Stan nodded in agreement, although he still missed Wendy.
"You're not going to do anything stupid like get crazy drunk or go goth again, are you?"
"No, dude, we're juniors. Going goth is totally fourth grade. As for the booze part, I've been sober, and plan to keep it that way," Stan says, reassuring his friend.
Kyle breathes a sigh of relief as he lets Stan go.
"But enough about me and my problems. How are things with you and Bebe?"
Kyle and Bebe started dating in the middle of ninth grade and had been relatively stable ever since. They had a brief two-month breakup in sophomore year because they wanted to be "just friends," but they quickly found their way back together. She reasoned that the allure of Kyle's ass drew her back to him.
"Things are going okay. I mean, I like her, she likes me, we get along great…your typical high school relationship, you know?"
"Well, at least you have someone," Stan says miserably.
"Hey, hey, hey…you'll find a girl soon enough. Either Wendy will realize what a dumbass mistake she made or some other girl who deserves you will come your way."
"Thanks, Kyle, but I'm feeling a bit cynical about relationships tonight."
"You know what you need? A night hanging out with me. Girls, relationships, dating, and anything related to them don't exist. Just you and your super best friend. You'd also be spending the night, of course."
"Aren't you and Bebe supposed to be going to the movies tonight?"
"Stan, the movie theater will still be there tomorrow. Bebe will still be around, and she will understand. She knows that you're a top priority in my life. That's what's so great about her, dude. I wouldn't date her if she was the clingy, jealous type that kept me from hanging out with you."
Stan smiled at Kyle's dedication to their friendship. Kyle called Bebe and told her that Stan was feeling sad because Wendy dumped him again. He said that he wanted to cheer him up. Bebe said that was completely understandable and that they could go to the movies tomorrow afternoon.
"See, Stan? I can juggle my best friend and my girlfriend. Now, video game marathon time?"
"You're on, dude!" Stan said, smiling as he joined Kyle on the floor to play video games all night.
Both boys were happy that although they experienced serious high school relationships, they would always have time for each other.
