Stanley's Choice

Stan, Wendy, and Kyle were sitting in Stan's room. "As you both know, I have feelings for you both. Unfortunately, I can only be with one of you. It's only fair. Now this was a long difficult thing for me to decide, but I made the decision and I think it was the right one."

"Just tell us who you picked already!" Wendy demanded.

"Yeah, I'm starting to grow impatient myself," Kyle said.

"Ok, ok," Stan began, "the person I want to be with is...Wendy."

"YES! YES! YES! I knew you would pick me! I love you so much Stan!" Wendy jumps into Stan's arms and kisses him.

Kyle looks dejected. "I was so sure you were going to pick me. How could you do this to me Stan?" Kyle starts crying.

"I told you Kyle, Stan would never want you. Now we can continue with our wedding plans! I'm so happy! Stan you're the best."

"Kyle, I'm really sorry. I didn't mean to hurt you." Stan said sympathetically.

"If you didn't mean to hurt me then why did you? You know much I love and care about you." Kyle continues crying. Stan walks over to him and hugs him.

"Dude, I'm sorry you're hurting. It's just that I love Wendy more than I love you. Please try to understand that." Kyle pushes Stan off of him.

"I hate you Stan! I'll never forgive you for this!"

"Kyle please-"

"Just leave me alone!" Kyle runs off. Stan watches him with a sad look in his eyes. Wendy walks over to him and puts her arm around him smiling.

"Let him go baby. You don't need him, you have me." She starts kissing him.

Suddenly Stan wakes up. "Dude, what a dream. Well at least I know what I need to do." He gets up and gets ready for school.

Once Stan arrives at school he sees Kyle's mom dropping him off. He rushes over to Kyle. "Hey dude."

"Hey. Did you make a decision yet?"

"I'm glad you asked because that's exactly what I wanted to talk to you about. I've made my decision."

"Really? You chose Wendy didn't you?"

"Actually after deep consideration, I decided to give you a chance."

"Really?"

"Yeah."

"Oh thank you Stan! Thank you! You have no idea how happy you've made me!" Kyle hugs Stan. Stan takes a deep breath. "What's wrong?"

"There's just one thing I have to do."

"What's that?"

"I have to break the bad news to Wendy."

"Oh yeah. Do you want me to come with you?"

"Oh no. I mean Wendy is going to be extremely pissed and if you're there she might kill you. Actually, I better keep a close eye on you. I don't want her to hurt you."

Kyle blushes. "Thanks Stan. I've never had anyone look out for me like that before."

"Well I love you and I always protect my love ones." Stan kisses Kyle. "I better go find Wendy. I'll see you after first period. I want to see if I can catch Wendy before she goes to class." He kisses his boyfriend again. Stan heads to his locker to put his coat in it. Wendy comes up behind him and hugs him.

"Good morning sweetheart!" She kisses him on his cheek.

"Good morning."

"It's such a beautiful morning isn't it?"

"Um...yeah...really beautiful." Stan said. 'Shit, she's in a good mood. I don't ruin it, but I can't lead her on either.' Stan looked at Wendy who had a big grin on her face. 'I have to do it now, I just have to.'

"Is everything ok Stan?"

"No it's not. We need to talk."

"About what honey." She puts her arms around him, but Stan pushes her arms away.

"Please don't do that."

"Why not, I love you."

"You're not going to love me after this."

Wendy looks nervous. "A-after what Stan?"

Stan sighs, "Wendy...I hate to do this, but..."

"Do what Stan? What is going on?

"I'm so sorry Wendy. I'm going to have to end our relationship."

"W-w-w-why? We're supposed to get married."

"I know, and I'm really sorry."

Tears began to form in Wendy's eyes. "Why are you breaking up with me?"

"Because I'm in love with someone else." Wendy breaks down in tears. Stan hugs her. "Shh! It will be ok. It will be ok." He starts stroking her hair.

"It's Kyle isn't it?"

"What?"

"Kyle is the person you're in love with isn't it?"

"Yeah it is. I'm really sorry Wendy, it's just that-"

"NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!" Wendy's scream was heard throughout the entire school. Wendy starts panting really hard. "Where is he? Where the FUCK is Kyle?"

"Wendy calm down please, it's not Kyle's fault. It's my fault. Be angry with me."

"I don't blame you Stan. This is all Kyle's fault! He manipulated you and he turned you gay!"

"This was my choice Wendy."

"Stan, you're confused." Just then Kyle comes around the corner. "There he is!" Wendy heads towards Kyle.

"KYLE! GO TO CLASS!" Stan cried out to his boyfriend. "HURRY!"

Kyle turns and sees Wendy approaching him. He then turns the other way and starts running. Wendy ends up catching up to him and grabs his arm. "I guess you spending an afternoon in a locker wasn't enough was it? You just couldn't leave Stan alone could you?"

"I didn't do anything."

"You turned my boyfriend GAY!" She slaps Kyle really hard. "I HATE YOU! I want you DEAD!" She starts chocking Kyle. Stan rushes to them and pulls Wendy off of Kyle. "Let me go! I'm going to kill the little bastard!"

"Wendy please, don't be angry with Kyle. It was my choice, not his."

"Stan, shut up, you don't know what you're saying. Kyle has manipulated you!"

"That's not true Wendy," Kyle said.

"SHUT UP! You don't want to be with him Stan, you love me."

"I love Kyle too Wendy."

"No you don't. You love me and only me!"

"Wendy, please don't make this any harder than it already is."

"I'll see Kyle dead before I let the two of you become a couple." She tries to attack him again, but Stan holds her back.

"Kyle, go to class please. I don't want you to get hurt." With that, Kyle leaves.

Wendy shoves Stan off of her. "Damn it Stan! How could you let this happen?"

"It just happened Wendy, I'm sorry."

"I hate you Stan! I hate you! I hate YOU! I HATE YOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOU!" She starts hitting Stan and begins to cry again. "I hate you for doing this to me!" She continues hitting Stan, but Stan ends up restraining her. Wendy buries her face in Stan's chest and continues to cry. "Why Stan? Why? I gave you so much. I did everything for you. I loved you. I even gave you my most precious gift, my virginity." She continues to cry.

Stan comforts Wendy. "I know, and I'm so sorry that things ended up like this."

Wendy pulls away from Stan. "I can't even talk about this. I don't even want to think about this!" She runs off in tears.

Stan watches her run away. 'Please forgive Wendy. I had to follow my heart,' he thought.

Moments later Wendy is in the bathroom stall crying. Bebe is standing outside of the stall. "Wendy please talk to me."

"How could Stan do this to me? I thought he loved me."

"He does love you Wendy."

"If he loves me then why did he leave me...for Kyle of all people?"

"He's just going through a phase. I'm sure next week he'll be more than willing to come back to you."

"I don't know Bebe, I just don't know." She comes out of the stall with three rolls of balled up toilet paper in her hands. "This feels like a bad dream. I wish I had killed Kyle instead of stuffing him into that locker." She wipes her eyes and blows her nose.

"Wendy, you can't be angry with Kyle. He didn't make Stan leave you for him."

"Well he manipulated the situation. I'm pretty sure of it."

"You have no proof of that."

"I don't need proof. I have my women's intuition."

"Whatever. Let's go, we're going to be late for class."

"I don't want to leave this bathroom. I can't face them. They're all going to laugh at me."

"No they won't. If they're going to laugh at anyone it would be Stan. He's the homo, not you."

"But he left me for another guy, it's embarrassing."

"Just try not to think about it." The two girls leave the bathroom together. When they leave the run into Kenny. Once again he's walking with a girl on each arm. "Hey Wendy, I hear you're a free agent now."

"What's it to you Kenny?"

"Well I just wanted to let you know that anytime you want to be one of my girls you know where you can find me."

"Thanks, but no thanks."

Kenny shrugs. "Your loss. Let's go ladies." Him and his sluts walk off.

"Word sure does travel fast in this school."

"Well it is a small school Wendy," Bebe reminded her.

"That's true." Just then Wendy and Bebe see Stan and Kyle walking by holding hands. "I think I'm going to be sick!" She runs back into the bathroom.

"Wendy?" Bebe follows her in there.

Stan and Kyle observed what just happened. "Damn, I feel so bad for her."

Kyle looks down. "Stan, if you want to go back to her, I'll understand."

"Baby, I'm not going to do that. I'm going to be with you."

"But what about Wendy?"

"Wendy is upset, and I'll do everything I can to help her through this, but I'm not going to get back with her. So don't worry about Wendy." He kisses Kyle.

"Ok."

In the bathroom, Wendy is leaning on the sink.

"You might as well get to use to it." Bebe told her best friend.

"How?"

"I don't know, but Stan and Kyle are in love so just let them be happy."

"You know, you're right."

"I am?"

"Yeah, I mean I'm going to have to see them everyday, so maybe I'll just give them my blessing."

"Good for you. Now let's get out of this bathroom."

"Ok." The two girls leave. 'I know how I can break the two of them up. I'll just make a little call to Kyle's mom. She would never in a million years approve of her son being in a homosexual relationship.' She smiles to herself.
