Fingerbang-Boyband Forever Chapter 8
Here's the new chapter of Fingerbang-Boyband Forever! Enjoy!
...
Cartman and Kyle walked through town to find somewhere nice to go. Cartman didn't want to take Kyle to a fancy restaurant because people would be begging for Kyle's autograph so he took him to The Velvet Lounge. That place didn't have much alcohol, for the bar it had was in the far back and only those that were of age were allowed to drink alcohol.
Once Cartman and Kyle got into The Velvet Lounge, they went to the front to sit down. They both ordered a coke.
When their coke arrived, they both began to have a conversation.
"So, how was it with Stan?" asked Cartman.
"Fine," said Kyle. "He asked me if I wanted to hang out with him but I told him I had a date with you tonight."
"That's good," said Cartman.
They both heard singing coming from on the stage. a young girl was singing a song with a band accompanying her. It was then that Cartman and Kyle realized that Wednesday was karaoke night at The Velvet Lounge.
"Listen, Cartman," said Kyle. "I know it's best for guys to date other sweet guys like you but even if I do find you're being so romantic, I'll always think of you."
"I know," said Cartman.
When the girl was done singing, a man stepped onto the stage and said, "Thank you, Rin." Then Rin, who had been the girl singing, walked off the stage.
"Now let's see who our next lucky performer is," said the man.
A spotlight shined from above and began making its way through the lounge, searching for the next singer. It made its way towards the front, where Cartman and Kyle happened to be sitting.
Kyle saw this and panicked. "Cartman, when Kaito and I come here for karaoke night, I get stage fright every time I'm chosen and it scares me."
"Don't worry, I'm on it," said Cartman. "Scoot your chair over to me."
Kyle obeyed and scooted his chair over to Cartman so that he was close to him and therefore can't get stage fright.
"Thanks, Cartman," said Kyle.
"No problem," said Cartman.
The spotlight landed on both of them.
"Well, what do you know? We've got ourselves a double lucky performer by the names of Eric Cartman and Kyle Broflovski," said the man.
"At least I won't get stage fright," said Kyle. This was due to the fact that the spotlight was shining on both him and Cartman.
"You guys wanna sing something for us?" said the man.
"Sure," said Cartman. "We don't mind."
He and Kyle got up from their seats and went on to the stage, the spotlight continuing to shine on them.
Kyle grabbed an extra microphone from backstage while the man handed Cartman his microphone.
"So, what are you guys gonna sing for us tonight?" asked his man.
Hmmm, thought Cartman. What would Kyle like?
Suddenly, a song came up in Kyle's mind and he whispered to Cartman. Cartman then whispered his and Kyle's choice to the man. The man nodded in satisfaction and told the band what to play.
Then two microphone stands were placed in front of Cartman and Kyle, who placed their microphones on the stands.
Then the band started to play a song that Cartman and Kyle knew quite well. Cartman then started to sing.
Lately I've been thinking
About the things that we've been through
And I don't know if I'd be here,
If not for you
I had to take a little time
To try to work things out
And you should know that
I have never meant
To let you down
Then Cartman and Kyle started to sing the next lines together.
Cause I, I
Wannna tell you that I'm sorry
And I, I
Even when I'm not giving enough
And I'm taking too much
You're still there for me
Even when I got nothing at all
And I'm ready to fall
You're still there for me
There for me
There for me
Even when I can't be there for you
You're always there for me
Kyle then started to sing the next verse.
Sometimes I know I can be
So hard to understand(Cartman:It's okay)
Even when I'm lost
You show me who I really am
Life with me hasn't always been an easy ride(Cartman:Oh yeah)
But because of you I've learned
To lose my selfish pride
Then Cartman and Kyle started to sing the next lines together.
Cause I, I
Wannna tell you that I'm sorry
And I, I
Even when I'm not giving enough
And I'm taking too much
You're still there for me
Even when I got nothing at all
And I'm ready to fall
You're still there for me
There for me
There for me
Even when I can't be there for you
Oh, You're always there for me(Cartman:Yeah)
Cartman then started to sing the bridge.
Oh no it's love
Oooohhhh(Kyle:Ooooohhhhh)
It must be love(Kyle:Ooohhh)
It's gotta be real love(Kyle:It's gotta be real love)
Cartman and Kyle started to sing the chorus together.
Even when I'm not giving enough
And I'm taking too much
You're still there for me
Even when I got nothing at all
And I'm ready to fall
You're still there for me
There for me
There for me
Cartman then sang the next line.
Even when I can't be there for you
When I can't be there
Then Kyle sang the next line.
Even when I can't be there for you
Then both boys sang the last line together as the band played the final chord.
You're always there for me
Everyone applauded and cheered when the song ended.
The man stepped back on stage and said, "Man, you guys are great. You could make a lot of solo artists run for their money."
"Thanks, but we'll stick to being in a boy band," said Kyle.
"All right," said the man. "And thank you again."
Cartman and Kyle bowed and went off the stage, satisfaction in their hearts.
...
Cartman and Kyle walked home, Kyle with his head on Cartman's shoulder.
"Thanks for singing with me back there, Cartman," said Kyle.
"No problem, Kyle," said Cartman.
When they got back to the mansion, Cartman was about to open the door when Kyle said, "You really are special."
Cartman turned around, walked over to Kyle, put his hands on Kyle's shoulders and said, "Kyle, there's one other thing I love more than music."
"And what's that?" asked Kyle.
Cartman kissed Kyle on the lips. When he pulled away, he placed a hand on Kyle's cheek and said, "It's you."
Kyle's eyes widened. Cartman then said, "Kyle, I really care about you. Ever since six years ago, I've cared about you. Only I didn't wanna tell you until now."
"Do you really mean that, Cartman?" asked Kyle.
"More than you know," said Cartman. He took Kyle's hand and knelt down in front of him. "Kyle, I realized that as long as I was with you all the time, I knew that that meant I wouldn't let anything happen to you. I do care for you. I always have, and I always will."
Cartman stood up while still holding Kyle's hand. He wrapped his arms around Kyle's waist and did what Kyle didn't see coming. He gave him another kiss on the lips. Kyle relaxed after a second and kissed back, wrapping his arms around Cartman. The two pulled apart when air was needed and Cartman said, "You really are cute, Kyle."
"You're cute, too," said Kyle.
The two leaned their foreheads against each other. Cartman then pressed a hand on Kyle's cheek and whispered those three sweet words Kyle was longing to hear. "I love you."
Kyle smiled and said, "I love you too, Cartman. Forever and always."
"Always," said Cartman.
"We'll always be a boyband forever, won't we?" said Kyle.
"Yeah," said Cartman. "If the band even breaks up, you and me will do whatever we can to get the band back together."
As an answer, Kyle nodded and kissed Cartman's cheek.
And Kyle knew that he and the other boys would be a boyband forever, which meant that he would never be worried or scared, ever, as long as his friends were there to support him and even perform concerts and karaoke with him, including Luka, Kaito and his boyfriend Eric Cartman.
And the moral of this story is, "As long as your band sticks together, you'll always have the confidence to perform well."
The End.
...
Well, that's it, guys. This is the last chapter of Fingerbang-Boyband Forever. The song I used was Still There For Me by Corbin Bleu and Vanessa Hudgens. I thought it would fit Cartman and Kyle nicely. Read and review, please! And I'll see you real soon on the next fanfic I'm planning. Bye!
