The scene is the school lunchroom. Stan, Kenny, and Cartman are eating lunch. Kyle is nowhere to be found.

" So what did Kyle want to talk to you about?" asked Kenny

" Oh nothing." replied Stan

" Hey, where is the Jew boy?" asked Cartman

Hearing Cartman say the word Jew made Stan's stomach clench. He still couldn't believe that he said that to Kyle, he started to feel sick.

" Stan, you okay?" asked Kenny

" Yeah, just a little queasy." said Stan

" Oh wow Stan feeling queasy, what else is new." said Cartman sarcastically

" Yeah I know Stan, Eric makes me sick too, I just learn to deal with it." said Kenny

" Aye, fu!k you Ken!" said Cartman

" So what's really wrong with you Stan?"

" Nothing dude." said Stan

" Stan, you know when you say nothing is wrong with you, you practically broadcast to the entire world that something is wrong with you." said Cartman

" Leave me alone Eric."

Kenny and Cartman look at each other a little shocked and confused.

" Uh, wait a second, am I hearing things or did you just call me Eric?" said Cartman surprised

" Well that's your name isn't it?" said Stan

" Yeah but…" began Kenny

" You guys never call me Eric, its always Fat Ass, Dumb Ass, or Fat Fu!k. Only ones who call me Eric are my mom, adults, Butters but he's just a retard that doesn't get it, and Kenny." explained Cartman

" Yeah, out of the four of us, only I call him Eric. In fact, I've never once heard you guys call him by his first name."

" Does it really matter?" asked Stan

" Okay dude, seriously. What the fu!k is up?" asked Cartman

" Yeah, dude I'm getting worried." said Kenny

" I'm not, I just want to know what the fu!k is up."

Kenny glared at Cartman but turns his attention back to Stan who pushes his food aside.

" Look guys nothing is up," picks up his tray and gets off the table, " I'm done, you guys want anything off my tray before I throw it away?" asked Stan

" No." said Cartman and Kenny together

Stan dumped his food and the trash and walked back to the table.

" I'm skipping!" said Stan

" What!" said Kenny and Cartman both with shocked expressions on their face

" I said I'm skipping. What?"

Stan hardly ever did anything like this, only when Kyle did it with him. It was always Cartman and Kenny who skipped school, but they skipped from the beginning of the day, never during the day when the teacher had already seen them.

" Dude, seriously what's wrong? Even I'm worried now." said Cartman still shocked form Stan's statement

" Dude you can't skip now, the teacher has already seen you. Besides you never do anything like this, only with Kyle. Is Kyle coming with you?" Kenny said

" No, I just don't want to be in school right now." said Stan

" Oh that is a lame ass excuse." said Cartman

" What, I need an excuse to skip. You guys do it all the time."

" Yeah, but for real important reasons, like if a new movie came out, or if we didn't do our homework, or if we just want to take the day off. Those are good reasons. Not we want to leave school in the middle of the day because we don't want to be her. Hell everyone doesn't want to be here, even the people who work here don't want to be here."

" Dude, the bitch is going to ask where you are." said Kenny

" And you guys will cover for me, right?" asked Stan

" Well sure we'll cover you! But dude what's wrong, you even got Eric worried, if your trying to scare us it's working."

" Nothing is wrong."

Stan walked towards the cafeteria exit.

" Dude, what the fu!k is up with him?" asked Kenny

" Yeah! Ever feel you were just cut out of a very good and important part of a story and just thrown back into it from where it left off." said Cartman

Stan walked out of the cafeteria doors and left the school grounds it began to rain.

The scene is somewhere near Stark's Pond, Kyle had left school after he had talked to Stan. He just walked along the edge of the pond, it started to rain.

The scene is somewhere in the town, Stan is walking around the town, he has no idea where he should go, he feels lost.

Kyle walks into the woods, the rain is coming down not hard yet not soft either.

" Why are you crying sky?" asked Kyle

Stan tried to make out of all the things that were happening, his best friend has gone against him and he doesn't even know why. The rain completely soaked his hat, his wet hair started to creep out from under it.

" Life sucks, why is everything so screwed up." Stan asked out loud, expecting and answer to a question he knew had no answer

Kyle lowered his head and stared at the ground, he watched it sort of crumble and melt away, it changed to a solid hard structure to a slushy wet liquid, all because of a little thing like rain.

" Is that what happened to us Stan, did we melt over something so little like rain. Was our friendship so weak that it fell apart so easily? I guess I'm to blame for that." Kyle said with tears in his eyes

Stan looked at the road ahead of him, the little drops of rain were like little bombs falling down and disrupting the water already on the sidewalk.

" I guess water isn't strong enough to keep it shape, when something messes with it, it automatically changes shape, never trying to keep its original form, so easily disfigured. I was the weak one, just like water."

Kyle looked up at the sky.

Stan looked up at the sky.

Both boys began to remember how it was before this started.

Stan remembered the picture he and Kyle took, they were happy, it was his birthday. He remembered his mom wanted a picture of them both. The boys put their arms around one another and pulled each other close. Cartman remarked at how gay it looked but they didn't care. Stan still had that picture in his room on his dresser. He wanted things to go back to those times, when they were happy together.

Kyle remembered the time he and Stan got on a new roller coaster. It was supposed to be the scariest one in Colorado, so Cartman dared him to go on it. He and Stan both got on together. They sat in the first car.

" You scared?" asked Stan as the roller coaster made its way to the top

" Nah, how bout you?" asked Kyle as the car stopped

" What do you think?" said Stan with a smirk on his face

The ride automatically went down the hill at super fast speed, normally Kyle would have been scared, normally Stan would have been scared. But they weren't. They were both there, right next to each other, some how just being next to the other, they weren't scared. It didn't seem that scary as long as they had each other. With out Stan, Kyle was scared.

" What's the point…" began Kyle

" …in remembering the past…" said Stan

" …when the person most important to you, that you shared the past with…hates you?" said both boys

Stan and Kyle both looked up at the sky, both crying. They hated each other, but they wanted things to go back to the way things were before. They wanted no to hate each other. But they did, and things weren't going to get easier for them here on out.

" I hate this!" both boys said

They looked up at the sky, neither of them knew the other was also in the rain outside; they just stared at the sky as the rain came down and cried as the rain made even more tears in their eyes.
