Escaping the Truth

A Kenny and Butters- err I mean Leo Slash

Chapter 5:

"How 'easy' do you think we should take it?"

I seem to be stuck in a storage closet, naked with nothing but a towel to cover me. Oh, and lets not forget the man I love who is currently yelling at me because he thinks that it's my fault that we're locked in here to begin with.

"I blame you!" Leo's eyes were flashing with accusation as he pointed at me. "What the hell were you planning? Huh? Were you gonna rape me? Try and get me to turn gay or something?"

Hearing the 'r' word I snapped. "No matter how much of a whore I may be, I would never, ever rape anyone!" My voice was thunderous as it resounded off the small space's walls. Advancing on him, I caused him to back up until he hit the door. Slamming my hands on either side of his head I looked deep in his eyes seeing his fear. My voice was whisper soft as I explained, "This was not my fault. Kyle and Stan locked us in here. I don't know what they did to you or how they got you in here but I'm sorry that they did it. Got that?" He nodded his head and I pushed away from him. "Good, now let's see if we can find a way out of here." Turning away from him, I searched the dimly lit room for something that may be of use. Faint sunlight caught my eyes and I saw a small window on the back wall. "Let's try that window." Going to it we stared at the rusted metal where a handle had once been.

"Well do you think we could pry it open?" He looked at me questionably, placing his hands on his hips.

Glancing at him, I stared back at the tiny window and wondered if we could get through. "Well, it's small; do you think we'll fit even if we do manage to pry it open?"

"Ummm, yes?" he sounded unsure.

"Well I guess we could try, if nothing else." I sighed and began rummaging around the dusty area, hoping to find a crow bar. After minutes of fruitless searching Leo broke the silence.

"Ummm, Kenny?"

"What?"Glancing up from the area I was searching I saw him peering over a box, confusion shadowing his face.

"Can you come here?" He looked at me then a little nervously.

"Sure." Stumbling out of the mess I had made I moved over to him peering down where he was looking. He leaned in whispering as if we had discovered some big secret. "What is it?"

I was completely and totally shocked. There was a rubber chicken with a condom stuck over its head, three different kinds of lubricant, fuzzy polka dotted handcuffs, and what shocked me the most was the picture of Mr. Styx sleeping and the half burned candles that surrounded it. "How, how about we-we just, ummm, let's-let's- don't ask. We probably don't want to know."

"Right, right." Nodding his head repeatedly he turned around and let out a happy sound. "Hey we can use these golf clubs!"

"Good idea." He smiled at me proudly and I reached out ruffling his hair. Apparently he didn't like that because he jerked his head back giving me a funny look. Turning away again he bounded towards the window and hoping up onto a crate, began trying to pry open the window. Grunting and straining against the years of rust he seemed to be unsteady. Coming behind him I placed my hands on his slim hips hoping to keep him steady. I had the opposite effect because he then squeaked and fell back into my arms, conking me on the head with the golf club just before dropping it. "Hey you okay?"

"What- let me go!" Letting him go he righted himself and glared at me.

'What?"

"Don't you what me! You know what." He jerked his shirt back into place avoiding eye contact.

"Ummm, yes I do? I just felt like asking you what to make sure you knew what." Rolling my eyes I ignored his odd behavior and jumped up onto the table. As I jumped my towel slide down a little bit but everything was still covered. Hmmm wonder what he'd do if I just stood naked. Probably punch me again. Examining the rusted window I say that nothing would be able to get it to open except maybe some WD-40. Well, shit.

Turning and jumping to tell Leo we'd have to wait for a janitor I came face to face with his open mouth and half mast eyes. Hmmm, maybe I could…nah better not. Snapping a finger in his face he came back to reality. I smirked at his red face. "Next time you do that I may just kiss you to get your attention."

"Dude, sick!" he whipped his lips at the thought of my kiss.

"Psh, that's what you think now." Walking back over to the door I sat down in front of it, noticing how quickly the room had darkened. "Man, it sure gets dark quick this time of year. Shouldn't it be staying light out longer? I mean it is February."

"Yeah, I know what you mean. It sure gets dark quick." Leo's voice was shaky as he spoke.

With the little light left I saw that he was wrapping his arms around himself and starting to look frantic. He looked over in my direction and started moving my way when it went pitch black. "K-Kenny?" Before I could answer he shrieked and was suddenly in my lap, his face lying on my lower belly, centimeters away from my dick. His arms went around me squeezing tight. Leaning forward I cuddled him smoothing his hair.

"You're still scared of the dark?"

"N-No I'm not! I just tripped that's all!"

Grinning to myself at his lie I was about to answer when his head found my fading bruise. "Oh, owww move your head." Pushing his head away from the bruise I felt instantly better if a little sore.

I felt his finger poke at my bruise and I swatted his hand away with a growl. "What happened?" His voice was filled with curiosity.

"You. You're what happened you little devil."

He pushed himself up and I felt his eyes on me. "I did that?"

Nodding my head even though it was too dark to see anything I answered back, "Yep, Monday when I jumped you."

"Wait. Are you serious?" I could almost see his brows furrow.

"No, a bus ran- wait actually that has happened. Err- yeah you did it." I almost hit myself at my lame attempt at sarcasm.

"Oh." That was all he said before removing himself completely from me and coming to sit next to me. There was a silence between us. It wasn't awkward or uncomfortable, but it wasn't friendly either it was just…silence. Closing my eyes and leaning back I waited and waited hoping to hear someone come into the locker room so that I could get out. God damn those fucking bastards! I'm gonna rip their balls off and shove them down their fucking throats! Why the fuck did they lock us in a closet? Then again, maybe I could use this. Contemplating possible ideas of how I could get Leo to talk I rejected them all. I was about to just say fuck it and take a nap when he said, "Sorry."

"What?"

"Well, I mean, sorry. For, yeah know, punching you."

"Which time?"

He moved and seemed to be straightening up as he said, "Ummm, all of them?"

"Do you not know?" I turned my body so that I could better face him.

"Well, no. I mean, I know you're not a bad guy, just a whore. Wait, that wasn't nice, but it is true. Not that there is anything wrong with whores, well except for those that have all those STDs. You don't have an STD do you? No, I'm sure you don't. Wait, I got off track, but you really don't seem like a bad guy. Even if you are gay, wait no you like girls so you must be bi? Yep. Nothing wrong with that. The thing is that I'm not though, ya know? Then when you kept on saying stuff like 'you're gay' and 'I love you' well it made me uncomfortable. Then you got me saying 'hamburgers' again which I do not like at all. It makes me sound so…weak. Ya know? And it's just, well, I mean, sorry, ok?" he was short of breath when he finished. I couldn't seem to get my mouth to work. Here was the one I love explaining, well more like attempting to explain everything to me and I couldn't even answer him. "Kenny?"

I gave myself a mental slap and forced a reply. "Wow."

"That's it?" he sounded angry and a little confused.

"No, it's just wow. I wasn't expecting that. Where'd it come from?"

"I'm not really sure. It just sorta came ya know? Hey! Hey do you hear that?" Jumping up from our sitting positions he knocked me sideways and began banging on the door. "Hey! Hey! We're locked in here! Let us out!" Standing, I joined Leo in beating up the door. After minutes of nothing we both gave up sliding back down to sit.

We were silent again, then he whispered, "I know I heard something! I know I did!"

"Don't worry about it." I put my hand on his shoulder thinking it might comfort him. "Maybe it was-"

"Go to hell, Kenny." Pushing off my hand he moved away, to where I couldn't tell in the dark.

"Ummm, well, I don't really feel like going, to be honest." I rambled, trying to focus on something besides all the naughty voices suddenly speaking in my head. "I was just there last Thursday and Damien was throwing a hissy fit. Something about how Pip doesn't need an education and how he would teach him everything he needed to know. Kinda stupid if ya ask me."

He didn't answer, just sat there in total silence. I continued rambling on for about another ten minutes before finally slipping into a peaceful sleep.

My stomach was clawing at my insides demanding food. Food, food, food. Wonder what's in the-. My thoughts were cut off as I came awake fully. Rubbing the sleep from my eyes I sat up slowly. "Leo?" My voice was slurred from sleep. Yawning and giving a stretch I searched the darkness for the blond boy. "Leo?" My hand hit something warm. Feeling my way I realized it was a leg, moving my hand up carefully so as not to touch any certain areas, I came to his face.

Tracing my fingers over his features gently I felt my own soften. Lying down on my stomach I stared where Leo's face was, and imagined it.

I'm not sure how long I laid there but I eventually fell back asleep. I woke up again, this time to the sounds of heavy breathing near me. Once more rubbing away the sleep I heard Leo mumble something. He was groaning and moving around; it sounded like he was having a nightmare.

I reached out to wake him up when Leo said, "Kenny! Ahhh-" Stunned I stopped moving. In fact, I stopped breathing. My mind couldn't function. "K-Kenny, no, wah- ahhh!"

He's dreaming. But he's dreaming about me. That's good right?

Faint sunlight streamed in through the small window, shining right on my face. Groaning at the bright ball of fire, I rolled away to escape it only to come face to face with a door. Groaning louder I turned back to the sun, clutching my head.

"Kenny, you're not dying, so shut the hell up."

Opening my eyes I searched for Leo. Finding him standing below the small window I sat up. My mouth had that funny morning taste to it, and my body was sore as hell after sleeping on concrete all night.

"Cover up." Coming over to the door he sat away from me, not so much as twitching at my naked state.

I stood up grabbing the towel and stretched out my stiffness. "So," looking over I saw Leo relaxed against the door. "Ya know what time it is?" Rejoining him I made sure to keep my distance.

"Yeah, let me just check my invisible watch!" Rolling his eyes and huffing, he stood up again and began pacing.

"Ok. You're not a morning person. Noted."

"I am too a morning person," he growled at me.

"Whoo, there kitty."

"Stop calling me kitty!" he stopped his pacing and glared down at me.

"Why?"

"Because I don't like it!"

"Oh."

"Yes, so stop!" he resumed his pacing and didn't say anything more.

That was the only conversation we had. After that it was just tense silence and our own footsteps that filled the air.

It must have been well past noon when I heard them.

"Do you think he'll be mad?"

"Kyle, we locked them in a closet."

"Shhh! Maybe they're asleep and he won't ever know it was us."

Leo had heard them to and we were both glaring at the door; waiting for it to open. The lock clicked and the door knob turned. Slowly the door itself opened to reveal a nervous Stan and Kyle. Seeing us, Stan took a step back behind Kyle, whose eyes had bugged out. Giving a nervous laugh he raised his hand. "Ummm, hi, Leo, Kenny."

"Well, Kyle, I'm not asleep."

"Y-Yeah, I can see that."

I took a step forward and Leo moved with me.

"Do you know why?" Leo's voice was murderous as mine.

"W-Well, it got a little, uh, chilly last night."

"Chilly?" I had taken two more steps, Leo still beside me and we were nearly on top of the devious couple.

"You thought it was chilly last night?" Leo was shaking with rage.

Bumping my shoulder I said, "They won't have to worry about that longer, will they?"

Leo quickly caught on saying with an evil grin, "Oh no, they won't. Seeing as they'll be spending the next few years in hell!"

"Now, guys, let's take it easy." Stan's voice was high pitched and shaky. Stan and Kyle were almost backed against the lockers.

"Easy?" Laughing without joy, Leo looked at me. "How 'easy' do you think we should take it?"

I didn't say anything just stared at the two. Moving towards them I saw Leo stay behind me. "If I see you two fuckers anytime soon, I will beat the holy shit out of you. Not only that but I may get a little mean and do something horrible. I do know oh so many torture techniques." Leaving them to cower a bit, I grabbed my bag, still sitting on the benches where it had been left the day before.

"Kenny?"

Looking over to Leo he had his fist clenched and his eyes were raging. "Hey, go ahead man; I sure as hell ain't stopping you."

He smiled then as bright as the sun, "Thanks, Kenny!" he advanced on Stan and Kyle and I turned away.

Walking out with my towel still intact, I got to hear the sweet sound of Kyle and Stan begging Leo to calm down; followed shortly by the sound of a fist hitting a face. Needless to say, I left the school with a grin on my face.

A/N: Alright so hopefully the next chapter won't take me a year to write...maybe if I get some angry reviews telling me to write it won't...just a thought...=)
