Here's chapter 2. It's basically fluff, but important fluff. I hope you enjoy.

Token approached me with the biggest grin I've ever seen. "What's up with you?" I ask.

"Wendy asked me out again." I shook my head. I as much as everyone else knew that Wendy just jumped between Stan and Token as she got bored.

"You're too good for her. Why settle for her bitch ass?" He frowned at me.

"I thought you would be happy for me, Nitro."

"She uses you and Stan. Why would I be happy if you're with her?" He shrugged, his good mood instantly gone now, but I didn't care. I sat down at the lunch table with Craig, Clyde, Token, Tweek, and Kenny.

"Hey, dude." Kenny said, nodding at me. He stopped being in Kyle's group and joined Craig's sometime during the 8th grade year. I nodded a response back to him, sitting next to him. We sat in our normal seats, being Craig, Kenny, and me on one side and Tweek, Token, and Clyde on the other. No one talked for a while.

"How's Lily been doing?" Clyde asked, randomly, filling in the silence that soaked them.

"She's fine. How about Karen and Ruby?" I continued it to avoid more awkward pauses.

"Karen's fine. I see Ruby and Lily grew a liking to her." Kenny said at the same time I earned a grunt from Craig, meaning 'She's fine'.

"Yea. I'm not surprised. Karen's like a mother to Lily." Kenny nodded slowly, taking a bite from his lunch. Another pause. This time it was broken by Tweek with one of his random outbursts.

"Oh, shut up, Tweek." Clyde said, drinking his Gatorade. Another silence and I stood up, done with my lunch. Token usually filled in those gaps, but since I put him in a bad mood, he didn't seem to want to talk. I threw my garbage away and walked out of the cafeteria, ignoring the calls of a teacher. We weren't supposed to just leave lunch whenever we were done. I pulled my hat down a bit and kept walking. I heard footsteps behind me; hurried footsteps, but not of heels of dress shoes the teachers must wear. I turn to see Kenny.

"What?" I ask, not meaning for it to come out as bitterly as it did.

He shook his head. "I was done with lunch too. Can't I walk with my friend?" I narrowed my eyes. Everyone seemed to be playing that card lately.

Then another pair of footsteps were behind us. It was Craig. "Aren't you in a bad mood?" I asked.

"Yea, that's why I'm here and not in there." He pointed with his thumb back at the cafeteria where Token, Tweek and Clyde sat. I nodded thoughtfully. "Once you left, Token started talking his fucking head off. What'd you do?" The question was obviously targeted to me.

"He told me he was going out with Wendy and I spoke my mind." I shrug as I answer. "He didn't take it so great."

"Obviously." Kenny muttered. Craig and I glared at him. He raised up his hands in surrender and with looked ahead.

"I wanna get out of here." I murmured. Kenny bumped me with his elbow. "No, Kenny, I don't want to get high. I just want out of school. Go somewhere… else." This earned a look from Craig and Kenny, looks that read, 'What the hell?'.

"Dude, that was poetic." Craig mocked.

"Oh, shut up. I fucking hate school and the last place I want to go now is my house. What about one of yours?"

"Mine." Craig said. Kenny and I nodded. We were the two poorest kids in school. No one in their right mind would want to stay at our houses. We walked out the front doors of school and up to Craig's car. Kenny and I sat in the back while Craig took the driver seat. He turned up his music as loud as it would go. I wouldn't say I hated his song choices, but I didn't like them.

I don't listen to much music, after all. "Hey, I'm making a band. You wanna

join?" Craig asked us. Kenny and I looked at each other.

"Sure." we said together. He nodded while tapping the steering wheel.

"What do you want to be?" he asked. I shrugged. I didn't know one thing about music, let alone what instruments you play in a band.

"What do you need?" Kenny asked with a shrug.

"Token can play bass, but that's all that I'm sure about."

"I'll be whatever you need me on." I said, seconded by Kenny and his nod.

"That helps." he said sarcastically. We were at his house soon. Kenny stepped out of the door, stretching. I opened my door but didn't get out.

"What are you doing home?" a familiar female voice said in irritation.

"None of your business, Ruby." Craig said, flipping his sister as he got out of the car. She flipped him the bird. "Come on, guys." He said, pushing past her. I got out of the car, and followed Craig and Kenny in. Ruby huffed, shutting the door and walked into the living room. Craig led us up to his room. "Here, Kenny. Try it out." Craig said, handing Kenny some drumsticks and pointing at a drum set in the corner of his room.

Kenny shrugged, go over the drums. He sat down on the seat and started randomly playing. It was ok, but still obnoxious. Kenny stood back up and handed me the sticks. "Your turn." I shrugged, taking them from him. I played randomly, not sure of what I was doing. When I was done, I looked up at my two friends who both had surprised faces.

"What?" I asked, placing the drumsticks on one of the drums.

"I think you have a new drummer, Craig." Kenny said after a while, seeing as Craig was too stunned to even say anything. He merely nodded in response.

I shrugged. "Sounds good with me. Are you going to try out anything else?"

"Singing?" Kenny asked.

"Sure." Craig said, finally getting back to his composed self. Was I really that good? Kenny picked up Craig's iPod and scrolled through the songs. Finding one he knew, he clicked it and began singing along.

"And you have your singer." I said, nudging Craig. He had a voice of an angel. Well, maybe it had to do with being immortal…

"Why do the poor people have all the talent?" Craig asked, sitting on his bed.

"To give us money in the future?" I suggested with a shrug.

"Sounds right." Kenny said, sitting by Craig. "So is that your band, then?" He gave a sideways glance to Craig.

"Yea." He said, "I'll get Token and we'll meet tonight. I'll bring the drums. Kenny, you bring your voice." Kenny nodded.

"Will do, sir." He said with a wink. This gained him a slap by Craig. "Hey! I gotta protect my face. It's what brings the ladies in." This earned another slap.

"Shut up, perve. You'll have time for ladies whenever we've got songs figured out.

"Whatever." Kenny muttered, rubbing his face. I looked at the alarm clock on Craig's desk.

"I gotta go." I said, heading towards the door.

"Why?" Kenny asked. "Gotta girlfriend or something?"

"No you fucking perve. My sister is off early today and I have to get her and bring her to her dance class."

"Awww…" Kenny said, holding his clasped hands against his cheek mockingly.

"Shut up." I murmur before walking down the stairs. I waved bye to Ruby and she waved back to me. I walked out the door and towards the elementary. I sighed. I would now have to sit through a whole dance practice with no way to talk to my friends. Lily's lucky these things are free…

So there it was. I'll update the next chapters as soon as I have written them. Leave some love.
