Chapter 15
Stan's POV
I decided to talk to Kyle about Julia and Kobe. Julia is really hurt by this so I want to try to make things right. I asked Kyle to come over so we can talk. I would go to him, but I wanted to talk to him alone. "Thanks for coming over." I tell him as he walks in.
"No problem. I think I know what this is about." Kyle tells me. "It's about Kobe and Julia, right?"
I nod. "Julia is really upset about this."
"I had to do what was right for my son."
"Julia's your goddaughter."
"I get that Stan, but she's a bad seed."
"How?"
Kyle glares at me. "Did you forget that she just went to court because she was arrested for public intoxication? Under age at that!"
"I didn't forget, but-"
"Plus she's very disrespectful to her elders! Most of that I blame on you!"
I'm completely taken aback. "On me?"
"Yeah dude. Wendy is the disciplinarian while you let Julia get away with murder. I understand Wendy's frustration with you. Another reason why Julia is better off living with them than you. Cartman's is a disciplinarian too. Why do you think Shannon is so well behaved despite the way her parents are?"
I can't believe Kyle just said that to me. He knows how I feel about Cartman trying to raise Julia. "You really think Cartman is a better fit to raise my daughter than I am?"
"When it comes to discipline, yes."
"I can't believe this..."
"There's nothing you can say to make me change my mind about letting Kobe hang out with Julia. Maybe when and if I start seething some changed in her behavior I'll allow it again, but for now, they need to step back."
"I really hate that it had to come to this..."
"Kobe is a good kid! He's a straight A student and he's already taking college classes. I want him to focus on his grades instead of Julia's latest dream! Let's face it Stan, that girl of yours is nothing but drama! Look at how dragged your niece down with her. I refuse to let that happen to my son!"
"She's a good kid Kyle. Please give her a chance." I try to plea with him.
"If Kobe didn't have s crush on her, I might feel differently."
I blink a few times. "Kobe has s crush on Julia?"
He nods. "I've known for quite some time. When I confronted him about it, he told me he loves her. He doesn't know the first thing about love."
"Maybe he does. You don't give him enough credit. I knew I loved Wendy when I was 15."
He laughs. "Yeah and look at how that turned out for you!"
"That doesn't mean-"
"I don't want him to turn out like you! I can see it now! Julia will hurt Kobe the same way Wendy hurt you! You're a fucking mess now because of it! Nichole and I won't stand for that, that's why we put a stop to their friendship!"
"Julia and Kobe have been friends since they were babies. She looks at him like a brother. She would never hurt him!"
"Do you hear yourself? She looks at him like a brother! Kobe doesn't see her as a sister, he would like for her to be his girlfriend! It's a disaster waiting to happen!"
"I can't believe this is happening..."
"You better believe it dude! You need to accept it just like you need to accept that Julia is a little Wendy!"
"She's nothing like Wendy!"
"She's exactly like Wendy! You're in denial when it comes to her it's ridiculous! This is exactly why I say her behavior is your fault! I hope you see it before it's too late!"
I can feel my face turning red with anger. "I'm sorry you feel that way. I guess I'll have to explain things to Julia."
"Let her know we meant what we said about filing a restraining order of she comes to our house." Kyle adds in.
"I'll let her…" I tell him defeated.
"Good." He turns to leave, but then turns back to me. "Hey?" I look up at him. "I hope this doesn't sour our friendship."
"It won't."
"Are you sure?"
I nod. "I'm sure."
"Good. I'll talk to you later." He leaves. I slump down on the couch. I feel like I've failed Julia. She asked me to talk to Kyle and if anything, I've made things worse for her. I can't believe Kyle blames me for Julia's behavior. She made one mistake and now he's holding that against her! That's not fair at all. Maybe I'll let Kyle cool down a bit and try talking to him again. I don't know, I'll just play it by ear.
Kenny's POV
Bebe decided to invite Butters over for dinner. She sent the younger kids to her parent's house so we can have privacy. We have no clue where Dustin is as we haven't seen or heard from him in week or so. Dinner has been awkward and silent.
"So Bebe, how's work?" Butters asks deciding the break the silence.
She shrugs. "Work is great. All I do is sterilize medical instruments all day. Fun stuff!" She says sarcastically.
"Does it feel good to make nice, honest living?" He looks at me and smirks.
"Yeah it does…" Bebe looks back and forth between the two of us. "Are you trying to imply something? Because the last time I checked, Kenny worked at the gym with you."
"I'm not implying anything." Butters goes back to eating. I let out a sigh of relief and start picking at my food.
"You're awfully quiet Kenny." Bebe says to me. "I figured you and Butters would have a lot to say, especially to each other."
"I'm always quiet babe…" Butters talks massaging my balls under the table.
"Not this quiet…"
I bit my bottom lip. "I'm just feeling…so good…" I moan, but quickly snap out of it. "I mean, I'm just feeling like being quiet."
Bebe eyeballs me suspiciously as I start sweating. "Well look, obviously we're here because we have a triangle going on that needs to stop." She looks at Butters. "Butters, Kenny is my husband and I want you to back the fuck off!"
"I can back off of him, but can he back off from me?" Butters asks as he continues his massage.
"Kenny?" Bebe looks at me. I'm too turned on at the moment to pay attention to her. "KENNY?!"
I quickly snap out of it. "Yes babe?"
"Can you stay away from Butters?"
"Ooooh yes!" I moan.
"You guys are sick!" The doorbell rings. "I'll get it!" She gets up annoyed. I'm actually glad she got up when she did because I just came and I need a reason to get up from the table. As soon as I stand up, Butters pulls me back down.
"You can't stay away from me." He lowers his eyes. "You know why too…"
"Yes, I know. Bebe can't know that though."
"She wouldn't care if she knew how much extra money you were bringing home."
"Again, that's between-"
"NO! NO! NO! NO!" I'm interrupted by the sound of Bebe's screams and cries. Butters and I rush to the door. We see Officer Yates at the door.
"Bebe, what's the matter?" I ask her. I look at Officer Yates. "What's going on? Is something wrong?"
He nods. "Your son Dustin was rushed to the hospital. He was found unconscious in an abandoned alley."
My eyes widen and I look at Butters then back at Officer Yates. "He's alive though, right?"
"I don't know any more than what I just told you. You two have a good day." He leaves.
I nod and hug Bebe. "We'll go to hospital right now. Go get your purse." Bebe nods and heads upstairs. I look at Butters. "This better not be your doing."
He massages my cheek. "Now why would I do a thing like that?"
"I mean it Butters! If you're responsible for this, I'll make you pay!"
"Oooh! Scary!" Butters laugh. Bebe returns with her purse.
"Let's go! I have to get to my baby!" She tells me. "Butters, you can let yourself out!" She pulls my arm and we head out. On the way, we're praying for the best.
Cartman's POV
"So this will be your room when you're here. Across the hall is Julia's room." I tell Shannon as I give her a tour of the house. We've been here for a few weeks now, but this is the first weekend I've had Shannon since the move so it's her first time seeing the house. "The blue room will be the baby's room." I tell her pointing to the obvious nursery.
"This is a really nice house dad!" Shannon smiles. "I really love it!"
"I'm glad you do. You know you're welcome here anytime, not just court appointed times."
"I know, nothing's changed!" She hugs me. "So how's Julia been?"
I sigh. "Well she definitely has her moments…but Wendy quickly puts her in her place! I think she's slowly coming around."
Shannon laughs. "So where is she now?"
"She said she was going to visit some friends. She'll be home later."
"Good. We can have late night pillow chat like we use to when we had sleepovers."
"That's the right attitude!" Just then Wendy comes out of the room slowly and holding her stomach. "Honey, you're awake! Are you ok?"
She shakes her head. "I'm in labor…" She whispers.
"Oh my God! The baby's coming?" Shannon squeals. Wendy nods.
"Are you sure you're in labor? It's a month early." I ask her.
"Yes dear!" She starts breathing really hard. "My water broke…" Holy shit! We're getting ready to have a baby! I grab her hospital bag as Shannon gets her to the car. I'm feeling a little panicked. This is the first time I've been there for the birth. When Shannon was born, Shelley, didn't tell me until after she arrived. This is my first experience and I'm feeling really, really nervous!
