~One week later~

In the morning Kyle managed to take a shower and put clean clothes on. That day at school was even worse; Kyle began to wake up out of his daze. Stan failed to acknowledge him in any way. Kyle was devastated. Kyle actually talked to some of his friends that day, but not much.

~That night~

Kyle was on his bed looking at a picture of him and Stan holding each other when Gerald stumbled in, Kyle knew right away that he was completely high. "Kyle stop being such a pussy!" Gerald laughed and ripped the picture from Kyle's hands, "I'm so sick of your stupid gay ass! You are going straight to hell!" He threw the picture on the floor and the frame shattered, "go kill yourself you are useless anyway! You're not as smart as your brother, you're full of sin and you're an ugly piece of shit!" Gerald screamed and walked out the door which he slammed behind him.

Kyle got a small bag which he filled with clothes and walked downstairs to be greeted with his mother's angry face, "Kyle Broflovski! You got a damn B on your test! No electronics! You are grounded you stupid ass! Why can't you be smart like your brother!? You are useless! Worthless piece of trash! Muffcabbage!" Sheila smacked Kyle across the face and walked away.

Kyle walked out the door still having that blank face. He walked to Starks Pond then into the woods, as he was wondering around he saw Kenny sitting there sipping out of a water bottle. "What are you doing here?" Kenny got started at the noise and turned around. "Kyle? What are you doing here?" Kyle and Kenny were both equally confused about the others presence. "My mom said I was worthless and my dad told me to kill myself" Kyle blatantly said.

Kenny was hesitant to say what happened but he felt like he could tell Kyle anything, like someone understood what he always had to go through. "My dad was high and drunk again, he slammed me against the wall and screamed in my face, my mom was high and they started to argue. My useless brother was drunk and kicked me a few times, Karen has been staying at friends houses, I told her to so she could be safe. I haven't eaten in five days and I haven't showered in just as long" Kenny blurted out, he has never opened up before and it felt great, like a big weight has been lifted from his chest.

"I'm sorry Kenny, I can sneak you in and you can take a shower, I'll wash your clothes and you can eat. No one will notice". Kenny smiled at the offer "thank you so much Kyle!" Kenny's excitement even made Kyle smile, something he thought he would never do again.

Kenny went home, grabbed his other clothes and they went to Kyle's house. Kyle and Kenny snuck in the door and went upstairs. "Ok Kenny strip and give me your clothes", Kyle said after handing Kenny a towel to cover up with. Kenny changed and Kyle turned around, Kenny's body was chiseled and you could tell Kenny has some muscles but he was also slender from lack of food. Kyle couldn't help but stare for a second. He quickly snapped out of it and took the clothes from Kenny. Kenny took a shower and Kyle washed the clothes.

"Hey Kyle?" Kenny walked into Kyle's room wearing the towel around his waist, his messy blonde hair still dripping wet. "What should I wear until my clothes are done?" Kenny asked. "S-some of my c-clothes" Kyle quickly grabbed some clothes and handed them to Kenny, Kenny dropped his towel to change and Kyle rapidly turned around, not even knowing what to think.

Kenny chuckled, "dude I'm decent now it's ok". Kyle turned around with an obvious blush on his face. He could help but look Kenny up and down, "damn Kenny looks nice in my clothes" Kyle accidently said. Kenny smiled, "thanks Kyle". Kyle looked at him questioningly "thanks for what?" Kyle asked with his eyebrow raised. "For saying I look nice in your clothes" Kenny said trying to hide his happiness. "Fuck!" Kyle swore, "That wasn't supposed to be said!" Kyle felt an even bigger blush appear on his face. Kenny continued to smile.

"Can I eat now dude I'm starving?" Kenny said trying to keep Kyle from being awkward. Kyle just nodded and led Kenny downstairs. Kyle and Kenny grabbed a ton of food and they went upstairs. Kenny shoved half of it down his throat and Kyle just sat there not eating. After Kenny was done he looked at Kyle, "you gonna eat?" Kenny asked "no" Kyle replied, "you can take the rest with you but Kenny just spend the night, ok?" Kenny was happy to be able to spend time with Kyle and sleep in a warm house. "Where will I be sleeping?" Kenny asked. Kyle once again blushed "in bed with me" Kyle said quietly. "Ok" Kenny said hiding his excitement.

They played video games for awhile then crawled into bed; Kyle wanted to cut but knew he couldn't, not with an overprotective Kenny here. Just before Kyle fell asleep he thought about how Kenny really cares about him.

~Next Day~

Kyle's alarm woke him up and he reached across Kenny to shut it off, the blonde was completely unfazed by this. "Kenny, Kenny, Kenny!", but Kenny just wouldn't wake up. Kyle sighed and pushed Kenny out of bed. Kenny fell on the floor with a thud, "the fuck" Kenny grumbled. "Wake up sleepy head" Kyle said while walking out of the room to shower and change. When Kyle came back in the room he found Kenny back in bed sleeping. "damnit" Kyle muttered. He shook Kenny and pulled him out of bed. Kenny finally got dressed and ready. The two had to run out the door not to miss the bus.

~At School in Class~

"Hey Kenny you working today at McDonalds?" Kyle whispered not wanting Mr. Garrison to throw a hissy fit. "No dude I had to quit" Kenny replied. Kyle's eyes widened "why?" "I couldn't stand being around food and not eating it, I did get hired somewhere else though" Kenny said smiling. "Oh really where?" Kyle asked. "At Wal-Mart with you" Kenny replied smiling. Kyle couldn't help but laugh, luckily Garrison didn't hear.

"Stop making googly eyes at each other you fags" Cartman said loudly while looking at Kyle and Kenny. Garrison stopped talking and everybody turned to look at them. Kyle looked and caught Stan's eyes which showed no emotion, Stan turned away when everybody else did and the class continued. Kyle felt completely terrible.

After class Kyle quickly ran up to Stan and pulled him aside, he was completely sick of this and needed to talk to him, "Stan what is with you?" Kyle desperately asked. Kenny watched at a distance not wanting something bad to happen, "Kyle… just… I… leave me alone "Stan said. Kyle wasn't going to take that, "no Stan what the hell is wrong with you? With us? We were so happy" Kyle asked. "Kyle we are done! I'm not gay like you, I'm normal! And you were happy I wasn't! It meant nothing to me! Fuck off Jew" Stan said and walked away.

Kyle could feel his wall breaking down, could feel himself falling, the tears poured out like waterfalls and Kyle ran out of the school and sat in the snow in front of it. Once Kyle started crying Kenny punched Stan in the face and ran after Kyle, he only got out there a minute after Kyle had sat down but the damage was done…
