Chapter Four: The Second Date and Stan drops the bomb on Wendy

"Want to go peach-pickin' later, Stan?" asked Wendy.

SHIT! thought Stan. I CAN'T LET HER KNOW THAT I'M GOING ON A DATE WITH HER BEST FRIEND, I HAVE TO TELL A LIE!!!

"I can't," Stan lied. "I have to help my sister with her homework."

"But your sister's 13," said Wendy. "Her homework is more harder than ours!"

"I can figure it out!" said Stan.

"OK," sighed Wendy. Then she walked away.

"Hey Stan," said Kyle. "How was the date last night?"

"Good."

"Any PDA?"

"PDA?"

"Public Display Affection. You know, hugging..."

"No, my parents aren't really keen on that. It's OK if Shelley does it, but not me."

"Did you tell Wendy?"

"No, why would I?"

"Just wondering."

"See you later."

"I can't see you later with Cartman and Kenny, Kyle. I'm busy with Bebe. We're going to see a movie. Alone, just the two of us."

"Which one?"

"Hairspray."

"Oh, OK."

"I lied to Wendy and said that I had to help Shelley with her homework when she asked if I wanted to go peach-picking with her. She bought it."

"Dude, what if Wendy found out you lied to her?"

"She won't!" snapped Stan. "If you tell, I'm gonna rip your balls off! If Cartman tells, I only will sock him in the jaw! If Kenny tells, I'm not really gonna do anything to him. If Butters tells,
we'll never be friends again. But if you ALL tell at the same time, so help me God, I will arrange an appointment for Mr. Mackey!!"

"Damn," Kyle said. "Don't get your panties up in a bunch about it!"

"Shut up, Kyle." Then Stan walked off.

"Hey Wendy," said Kyle. This is the first time Kyle spoke to Wendy since the "Parenting Project"
Mrs. Garrison set up.

"What?"

"Stan is going to tell you something tomorrow."

"Um... OK."

"No wait, I think I should tell you."

"What is it?"

"Stan is going out with Bebe tonight to see Hairspray."

"I don't see anything wrong with that."

"Whatever."

At the movies...

"This movie sucks, Stan," said Bebe as she reached over for popcorn and accidentally touched Stan's hand. "Sorry."

"That's OK. Hey Bebe, guess what?"

"What?"

"I'm dumping Wendy for you."

Bebe looked amazed yet shocked. "You're not bullcrapping, right?"

"I mean it. I mean Wendy's kind of a shrew, she won't leave me alone, she'll barely let me hang out with you or with anybody, especially Kyle. Even though she dumped Token for me, I still care about her, but not like that but I've realized I love you more."

"You mean it?"

"Yes, I do. I swear on my sister's deathbed. I'm gonna call Wendy tonight and say it's over but we can still be friends."

"I hope she doesn't hate me for dating you."

"If she does, I'll talk to her and reason with her."

"I'll see you tomorrow, Stan," said Bebe as she walked home with Stan. Then they leaned in for a kiss.

"Ditto," said Stan. Then Stan walks in the door. "Shelley, get off the phone!"

"Make me you little turd!" snapped Shelley as she hung up. "Which girlfriend are you calling?"

"Bebe is not my girlfriend!" denied Stan. It was offical they were. They kissed for the first time and went out on a couple of dates.

"Bebe and Stanley sitting in a tree, K-I-S-S-I-N-G! First comes love, then comes marriage, then comes Stanley in a baby carriage," teased Shelley but she really meant it.

"Hello, is Wendy there?" asked Stan over the phone.

"This is Wendy. What's up Stan?"

"It's kind of about our relationship. There's something I should tell you," said Stan.

Oh no, thought Wendy. He's gonna dump me. I know it. He's making it even just because I dumped him for Token.

"What is it?" Wendy was trying to hold her tears in.

"Um... well. I don't really love you that much anymore, we can still be friends,
but we won't be going out anymore. I know you dumped me for Token, then you dumped him for me, but I've realized I don't really think of you that much anymore," said Stan. "I'm sorry."

Wendy hung up. She cried.
