Chapter 14: It Started in the Closet
I'm trying something a little different for this chapter. I might keep doing this in the future chapters as well. I've never really played around with point of view much. Anyway, I hope you enjoy the direction I chose for the story! Disclaimer: I don't own South Park.
I woke up before my alarm today. I hate to admit it but I'm actually pretty nervous. We start our Senior year of high school today.
I roll out of bed and hop in the shower. I make sure to make it extra hot. I need to burn out some of these nerves. When I'm done I throw on some black skinny jeans and a gray shirt with a guinea pig on it. I want to look like I tried a little bit but I don't want to look like I tried too fucking hard like Clyde or the girls for that matter. Ugh fuck them.
I put on my chullo hat and inspect myself in the mirror. I'm sooo happy I hit my growth spurt last year. I'm not nearly as tall as my dad but I'm ok with that considering I still probably stand at about 6'2" on a good day. I think it's really changed me. I've got some muscle but I don't play any sports outside of gym or fucking around with the guys, so I mean I'm not Adonis or whatever. I'm just glad that I didn't get acne like a lot of people did. Actually now that I think about it, I'm sooo happy that Tweek didn't get acne either. We got lucky.
I remember at the start of high school and even before that being super average in every way. All the girls put me in the middle of all their stupid lists, but now I'm always in the top 5. I mean fuck them. They're stupid girls but I mean I won't complain if they rank me as being hot.
I walk downstairs for some breakfast. When I get into the kitchen I see my mom at the toaster and Ruby already sat down and putting food onto her plate. I grab the seat next to her.
"Hey loser." she says to me.
"Hey bitch." I say back.
She gives a little smile at that. She's a weird girl. Not to be a dick because she's my sister thing but she really is a weirdo. She hangs around with Ike a lot. I think she might like him but I haven't asked her about it. My mom turns around and is about to join us I think.
"Oh hey Craig! I didn't think you'd be down for breakfast today. Aren't you going to be late?" Mom says this to me as she's sitting down now.
I check my phone. Shit…she's right. I jump up and run back up the stairs to my room. I check myself over in the mirror one more time before I grab my bag and keys and run down the stairs and out the door.
Tweek is going to kill me…
I drive the few blocks to his house. When I pull in I notice he's already sitting on his front porch waiting for me. Fuck. He jumps up and gets in the car. I brace myself for his rant.
"You're late."
I kiss him. Nothing too absorbing or anything just a quick peck. Hopefully it distracts him long enough to not be too mad at me.
"I'm sorry." I hope he accepts it.
He turns his head to look out the window. "You know I like to get to school 20 minutes before the bell rings. I get fidgety otherwise."
I sigh, "I know babe. I'm sorry. I know. I guess I just took longer in the shower than I thought."
He shrugs in response. Good, good. He's not ranting. Shit wait…what if he's not ranting because he's that mad at me. Dammit. Whatever.
We pull into the high school's parking lot a few minutes later. Token seems to already be here, so we park next to his Escalade. I get out and walk around to grab Tweek's hand. He accepts, so maybe he's not all that mad. We make our way inside. The school is full of small, dorky looking freshmen stumbling around trying to find their friends or homeroom. Whichever I don't care enough to know. I pull Tweek a little and we make our way over to the wall across from the cafeteria, our group's usual meet up spot before school.
Token, Stan, and Kyle are already there laughing about some kind of stupid shit I'm sure.
"Hey dudes!" Stan immediately greets us. Does he always have to say dude? Fuck we're not 10 anymore. It's annoying. Asshole.
"Hey guys!" Tweek grits out.
"Where's Kenny and the two fat asses?" I ask them. Kyle glares at me, "I don't know! I don't keep tabs!" his cheeks are flared up. Ugh why is he so mad this early in morning?
"Did you guys fight again?" Tweek asks him as he leans up on the wall.
Kyle shrugs. Of course they did. He doesn't seem to want to talk about it though. I honestly have no idea why he's still dating that fat ass. I mean in all honesty. I've been friends with Kenny, Kyle, and Stan for a long time now but I still fucking hate that dickhead.
I like Kenny the most of those assholes, well, as long as he isn't hitting on Tweek. He's only done it a few times since I threatened to kick his ass Freshman year but those times were harmless. He was super wasted and didn't even realize he was flirting with Tweek. I try to be better about my jealousy. Unless we're out somewhere or at a party and Tweek looks uncomfortable. He can handle himself now for the most part. He's not as scrawny as he was when we started high school.
He's like 5'8"/5'9" on good day and he's built up a little muscle like myself. The couples that lift together stay together. I know cheesy. Bite me. Tweek's had to get himself glasses too. He hates them but I think they're cute as shit. They're the big nerd glasses with red frames. He's also thankfully less nervous and jittery in general which is good. I can't help to think it's all the weed he gets on his med card though. Not complaining though, on the weekends he shares his prescription with me. Usually we just share a bowl on, Bertha, his big ass trusty bong.
I love him so much.
"Craig? Craig!"
"What?" I ask lamely as Toke waves his hands in my face.
"Nothin' man. You were just staring at the wall. It was creepy!" Tweek nods his head in agreement giggling behind his hand like he's trying to hide it. That little shit.
Finally we see Cartman, Kenny, and Clyde coming towards us. Kenny and Clyde are wearing their usual clothes. Orange parka for Kenny with ripped up jeans and letterman jacket and chinos for Clyde. They're laughing at Cartman by the look on his face.
"Hey Jewbae." Cartman leans over to kiss Kyle. Ew. They've been dating just about as long as Tweek and I but still ew. Kyle shoves him away. Ha! That's what he gets for being a dick.
"I'm still mad asshole! Come on Stan!" Kyle pulls Stan down the hall in a huff. Kenny and Clyde run after them. I can't help but laugh a little at the scene before me.
"What's your problem fag?" Ugh. He never can come up with a different name. Just goes straight to fag calling. Dick.
"I'm just laughing at the fact that all of your 'friends' like your boyfriend way better. Obviously." I'm already bored with this. I grab Tweek's hand. We leave with Token, leaving that dickbag alone.
"Hey, I gotta find Wendy and Nicole. We got to talk about the assembly later today. See ya!" Token breaks off from them and heads to the office. I forgot he was in Student Council. Whatever.
Tweek and I have the same homeroom this semester. It makes me sooo happy. We sit in the back and move our desks together so we can talk.
"You're not mad at me are you?" I can't help but ask him. Shit.
He smiles at me, "No, babe I'm not."
"Promise?" I hold out my pinky.
"Yeah I promise." He takes my pinky with his. He laughs, "So you chose a guinea pig shirt I see?"
"We can't all be naturally hot like you Tweekers." I smirk at him. I know he'll freak out now. He hates compliments.
"Don't say shit like that!" His face is red. He's also refusing to look at me now. Perfect. I face the front and tally that one up on my mental wins board.
Tweek and I find our seats in the gym for our stupid beginning of the year assembly. We sit with Stan and Henrietta and the other goth kids. I can't remember their names. It's so weird to me that Stan is dating the goth girl. I mean I get it. Stan's sorta goth or whatever too but still. I mean she's not ugly anymore. She used to be fat and raccoon looking when we were younger. Obviously she's not my type but I mean I guess she's cool. She's way less annoying than the other cunts in our class, so I give her that.
"Alright everybody! I'm glad you're all here with us today to introduce the new school year." PC Principal had somehow managed to stay with our class. Fuck him. Ugh, already this assembly is fucking lame.
"Now everybody be PC and supportive to our new students and freshmen. They will need help navigating this school for a while. Also, this week and next are Fall sport and club sign ups and tryouts, so make sure to put yourself out there if that's agreeable to you. Alright now I'd like for you to give a warm welcome to your Student Body President Wendy."
"Hey everyone! Hope your first day of the new year started off well! I have a few announcements before I give the mic back to PC Principle. First, this year we will be having a JV and a Varsity team for our cheer squad. Being the Captain I wanted to let everyone know that we are open to all types of people girls, guys, or whatever! Secondly, Friday we are having an ice cream social event to get to know everyone. There will be all types of ice cream for the people who have food allergies. Lastly, Seniors get ready! Student Council has been working really hard and have managed to pull together a Senior Trip! At the end of next month we are all going camping, so brush up on your knowledge! Thank you!"
Wendy hands the mic back to PC Principal, waves to the crowd, and walks back to her seat. Fuck this. I hate camping.
"Thank you Wendy! Now that all the announcements are done we've got one more very important item to address: Affirmative Consent."
Shit! Seriously again? He made Tweek and I sit in his office Freshman year about this. I had to ask Tweek to take a gander at his asshole! It was so fucking embarrassing!
"Remember you must ask to pound pussy or ass ok? If the situation is to arise you could say something like this for example, 'I like the way things are going. Would you like, if it is agreeable with you, to go somewhere more private so I could pound your _ blank?'"
Kill us all now.
"Now that, that is covered have a nice rest of your day. We will see you tomorrow!"
Thank fuck it couldn't end soon enough.
Alright I would also like to thank a reviewer that gave me the idea for the Seniors' trip. :)
