A/N: "Accidentally in Love" - Counting Crows
I love songfics. The world needs more of them. I know, I know, I should be working on my other stories, but I get so easily distracted by the temptation of writing fluffy crap. Especially slashy fluffy crap. Stupid song though... saying "her". Oh well. I can't have everything in life. Hehe. Please read and review. :)
(So she said what's the problem baby
What's the problem I don't know
Well maybe I'm in love (love)
Think about it every time I think about it
Can't stop thinking 'bout it)
Kenny was blushing harder than I'd ever seen him, making an odd contrast with his orange jacket. I laughed and pointed this out to him causing him to blush harder. There was a definite change in our friendship lately, we both seemed to blush a lot every time we caught the other's eyes which had never before happened in our eleven-year friendship.
Wow, has it been eleven years already? We'd been friends since we were four.... I can't even remember life without Kenny.
Nor can I imagine life without Kenny....
(How much longer will it take to cure this
Just to cure it cause I can't ignore it if it's love (love)
Makes me wanna turn around and face me but I don't know nothing 'bout love)
Eric Cartman does not get embarrassed. Eric Cartman does not have human feelings. Eric Cartman does not want to turn into a gay pussy like Stan or Kyle. But I look at Kenny's adorable grin and I have to admit....
I, Eric Cartman, know exactly what love is. And I hate myself for it.
Goddamn you, Kenny, I thought huffily, doing this to me! Turning me into... something I don't want to be....
I don't want to have these feelings...
...But I do.
(Come on, come on
Turn a little faster
Come on, come on
The world will follow after
Come on, come on
Cause everybody's after love)
We both get off the bus, looking nervously at each other when we think the other is not looking. We each know we're crazy about the other, but we're too full of pride to admit it. At least, I thought we were both too full of pride.
But Kenny's hand suddenly made contact with mine, my mind shut down and I couldn't think of anything to say. I tried to open my mouth but only a strange noise came out.
He pointed this out to me, and I blushed.
I hate having human feelings.
(So I said I'm a snowball running
Running down into the spring that's coming all this love
Melting under blue skies
Belting out sunlight
Shimmering love)
The sky was starting to cloud over, which I thought didn't fit the mood. In all the stories the sun was supposed to shine and be merry when you were in love.
But I suppose my life isn't just a story. It's real.
I look back over at Kenny, and I don't care that it's about to start storming. He makes me feel warm inside, and I barely notice when the freezing rain pours down onto me.
I squeeze Kenny's hand, not knowing how he could've fallen in love with me of all people, but so happy that he had.
(Well baby I surrender
To the strawberry ice cream
Never ever end of all this love
Well I didn't mean to do it
But there's no escaping your love)
I give up. I have human feelings. All I want to do is be with Kenny forever. Until the end of time. Already having hold of my hand, he pulls me in the direction of his house, which I found strange for a minute. We never hung out at his house.
But a rush of happiness flooded through me and I was excited that we were going to.
Maybe Kenny did live in the ghetto. Maybe he did have the crappiest house in the world. But he himself made up for that.
Besides, as thunder and lightening came up overhead, it occurred to me that his house was closer.
(These lines of lightning
Mean we're never alone,
Never alone, no, no)
We were dripping with rain as we entered his house, and I quickly ditched my soaking hat and coat. Kenny followed suit with his jacket. We made our way to his room to avoid his drunk parents, and I was suddenly aware I was shivering.
He realized this as we both sat down on opposite ends of his bed.
"Cold?"
It took me by surprise for a minute that he'd spoken, we'd both been quiet for a while. I nodded silently, as if fearing my voice would fail on me again. Which, admittedly, it probably would. He laughed softly and closer.
"Body heat warms you up quickly."
(Come on, Come on
Move a little closer
Come on, Come on
I want to hear you whisper
Come on, Come on
Settle down inside my love)
I thought I was going to piss my pants as he affectionately wrapped his arms around me, and he kept breaking out into soft giggles at my obviously bright-red face.
"You're such a girl, Cartman... getting embarrassed about such minor things."
But as his face moved closer to mine, I thought I had every right to be embarrassed about his idea of "minor things."
(Come on, come on
Jump a little higher
Come on, come on
If you feel a little lighter
Come on, come on
We were once
Upon a time in love)
Part of me hated Kenny for officially turning me into a fag, and the other part of me wanted to never part from it. I'd hidden my feelings well by dating girls, but I couldn't hide from them now.
It was an accident falling head over heels for Kenny.
But it was the best accident of my life.
(We're accidentally in love
Accidentally in love (x7)
Accidentally
I'm In Love, I'm in Love,
I'm in Love, I'm in Love,
I'm in Love, I'm in Love,
Accidentally (X 2))
His touch was lighter than a feather.
His warmth was better than a summer's day.
His lips were sweeter than chocolate.
He was more amazing than anything I'd ever thought possible.
(Come on, come on
Spin a little tighter
Come on, come on
And the world's a little brighter
Come on, come on
Just get yourself inside her)
"Kenny...." I started softly, but he pressed a finger to my lips.
"Shh... don't say anything,." He grinned mischievously before he pulled me into another kiss.
Human feelings were the most incredible thing in the world. Maybe I should start acting human more often.
(Love ...I'm in love)
