Kyle jumped as the phone rang, filling his bedroom with an unpleasent air. He didn't even need to check the caller ID to know it was Stan still wanting to talk about why he'd left the party early and if he was mad at him. In which, Kyle would calmly say he left to hang out with Craig because his mom got a new stereo and he wasn't mad. It was just to awkward to talk to Stan, so he was mostly quiet, which lead Stan to believe he was mad at him.

Come to think of it, he hadn't talked to Cartman or Kenny either. Well, not that he minded not talking to Cartman. The fat lard was always looking up new things to do or say to Kyle at school or on the bus. But now he realized he wanted to talk to Kenny.

He pulled on his green jacket and hat, being extra sure to leave his phone off in his pocket in case Stan called it again. He grabbed some chocolate he'd made with his mom and Ike for Kenny as a peace offering for not talking to him since the party. (Only three days, but Kenny got worried when him and Stan didn't update him on how they were.)

"Ike! I'm going to Kenny's alright?" He yelled up the stairs and waited for the groggy O.K from his younger brother, who he probably woke up. After hearing it he left, locking the door for Ike.

It was colder than he thought it would be. He took off his gloves and rubbed his hands together before taking off.

Kenny was sick and in bed, so Kyle was extra glad he'd brought chocolate for him.

"Hey. What's been up? why haven't you been talking to Stan?" Kenny asked when he stepped into his room. The sheets over him looked dirty and thin.

"Man, you look like shit. Are you warm enough?" Kyle replied trying to change the subject.

"Kyle Broflovski don't you think you can just change the subject and I'll stop asking why." Kenny's voice was scratchy. He took off his hood and sat up. Kyle sighed.

"I've just been... busy." It was true enough. He'd talked to Craig on the phone a few times and went over to watch a movie. They'd kissed a little, but nothing more. That had frustrated Kyle.

"To busy for me, I can see, but for Stan? What was it you were doing." Kenny's eyes gleamed with the fact he knew Kyle was lying. Kenny could always tell when people lied. Maybe that's why he went ot Kenny's instead of Stans. He wanted someone to talk to about him and Craig -- And not be disgusted or spread it around like Stan or Cartman. He gave another sigh.

"Alright, Alright." He said holding in hands up in defeat. "Have you ever, you know, masterbauted while thinking of a guy." He blushed madly when he said that. Kenny gave a weak laugh, which worried Kyle.

"Yeah. I think every boy has, even if they won't admitt it. Or, they probably just think of dating another guy. But hey, what's the big difference?" Kenny smiled weakly. Kyle knew he just trying to make him feel better.

"Well, have you ever masterbauted with.. another guy? Or let him do it?" Kenny's eyes widened when Kyle said this.

"Well, um, not really." He anwsered. By now they were both red. "So did you and Stan..?"

"No! No, it wasn't Stan." Kyle couldn't look him the eyes. He felt.. ashamed. "It was.. someone else." He didn't want to say Craig's name.

"Who was it? Or should I guess? Lets see, is he openly gay or not?"

"Who do you know that's openly gay?" Kyle asked, half curious and half skeptical.

"Kyle, i'm just trying to guess. Is he or not? And what color of hair does he have?"

"No, and black hair." Kyle noticed it was the same short description that could have been used for Stan.

"Is he in any of your classes?" Kenny asked, his voice going hoarse.

"Yes. In math and chem."

"Craig?"

"..."

"It's was Craig?! Is he gay? I kinda figured, but still." Kenny didn't seem as surprised as Kyle would have hoped.

"What do you mean you figured?" He asked in a demanding tone.

"Everyone knows he can't keep a girl, and him and Clyde... Anyway, he's not upset about it."

"About being gay?"

"Yeah. So does this mean you're bi?" The question took Kyle off guard. Was he bi? He'd dated girls and everything. and what about him and Craig. Were they dating?

"I.. I think so. You won't tell anyone, right?" Keny nodded and pinky promised.

"Thanks. it's great to tak to someone who's not so... You know how Stan and cartman are." Kyle shuddered at the thought of them hearing he was bi. Or gay. "Oh yeah!" Kyle stood up and pulled the chocolate out of his pocket. It was a little smooshed, but Kenny thanked him and ate a little piece, then set it aside and lookd like he was about to fall asleep. Kyle smiled at him and left, thankful to get a load off of his chest. He turned on his phone and saw Craig and Stan has called. He decided to call Stan first, hopeing it'd be a little less awkward now that he got it all out. It rang once. twice. Three times. Finally Stan anwsered.

"Kyle! I've been trying to call you! are you still mad?" He souned impatient.

"I already told you i'm not mad." He replied steedly. It wasn't much better. "Hey, can I come over for a little while? I was just at Kenny's. He's sick, so I didn't want to stay long."

"Of course, you know you can come over whenever you want! Terrance and Phillip is still on for about another hour. We can watch it and have some popcorn. Sheely's gone for the day, so we'll have the T.V as long as we need." Kyle flipped the phone shut and opened it gain, debating weather or not to call Craig. He decided not to.

"Hey. It feels like it's been for-ever!" Stan let him in, popcorn already made and sitting in a glass bowl on the coffee table. Stan grinned widely and motioned for Kyle to sit down on the floor. He did and Stan sat next to him. The T.V was paused on Phillip's face.

"It's my favorite one! Remember when you and me and Kenny and Cartman would watch every single episode and movie?"
