written 12/29/22
Ch. 1: Stan and Wendy's Reunion
Stan and Wendy will potentially be getting back together and might possibly have a family at some point. Also for those of you who don't know the kids we
originally knew are all adults now. The first part is a recap of the end of the movie that is necessary to start the story. All rights to the movie's end scene go
to Parliment+.
Everyone was back again in the new and vastly improved future. A Christmas reunion party was in progress at the Denny's Apple Bee's Max. Ike entered with his Canadian
Boxing Day presents. "Hey everybody I'm home yea!" he announced excitedly in his Canadian accent. "Ike's back!" said the people nearest the entrance enthusiastically. "Ike
you made it back!" a familiar voice cried. It was his brother Kyle. "Well of course, I wouldn't miss Canadian Boxing Day, buddy." Ike replied. Immediately Stan's Father, got up
and pointed at the door. "Look everyone, Stan's back!" he said happily. "Hey Stan!" everyone shouted. "Hey guys!" Stan replied equally as happily. He came in dressed up in
his futuristic high rank space uniform. "Good to see you buddy!" exclaimed Kyle as he ran up and hugged his friend. "How is everything on Mars?" he inquired. "Really cool!"
Stan answered. "But I'm so glad to be home." "How are the kids?" he asked his friend. Before he could respond Kyle's kids came running up to him. "Uncle Stan!" his kids
exclaimed. "There's the little ragged muffins!" he said bending down and giving them a hug. Then he looked up to see his Mother. "Mom." he said in a humble, yet sweet voice
as he walked up to give her a big hug "Hi Stanley." she replied happily accepting and returning the gesture. Then right next to her was his big sister who used to torture him
when they were kids. "And Shelly!" he cried going over to give his big sister a hug as well. As usual she didn't return the gesture, but was confused. "Why are you acting all
weird turd?" she questioned in an older sibling rivalry way. He broke the hug. "I don't know." he replied as he walked between them, turned around, and put one arm around
each of them. "For some reason I'm just really happy to see you guys." Suddenly, a voice in the crowd said "Hey, look who's here, it's Kenny." "Kenny!" shouted the crowd as
the renowned scientist made his way through waving to everyone as they greeted him. He walked up to his friends where Stan had one arm on Kyle's shoulder. "Kenny!" said
Stan welcoming his friend and putting his other arm around him. "What've you been up to, buddy?" Before Kenny could reply, Kyle spoke up. "Didn't you hear?" he asked.
"Kenny just won the Nobel Prize for combining dark matter and breast implants." "Oh, you old dog." said Stan as he gave his friend a soft fist to the shoulder. Tolkien turned
on the television. "Hey, guys he's on." he said trying to quiet everyone down. On the screen Jimmy Valmer was doing his comedy show. "Wow what a great audience." said
Jimmy. "What is up with these bisexual Canadians?" "I guess they don't know whether to fuck their brother or their sister." Everyone in the crowd was laughing in unison at
the joke. Suddenly Stan heard a familiar feminine voice from behind him call his name. "Hey Stan." Stan turned around to see his old childhood girlfriend. "Wendy, you're
back from Harvard." he said cheerfully. "Yeah, just here for the holidays." she said and then asked. "You wanna, maybe spend New Years together again?" "I'd love that." he
answered in a calm yet confident voice. (now I'm just skipping past the end of the movie since it is no longer relevant to the story.)
Wendy and Stan hadn't seen each other since Christmas Eve and they couldn't wait to see each other again tonight on New Years Eve. To start off the evening the two of them
had agreed to meet over at Starks Puddle or Starks Pond as it was known when they were kids. They were both nervous and ecstatic at the same time to see each other.
Wendy was in her Hilton Max hotel room getting ready for her meetup with Stan and picking out the perfect outfit. "I know we're not dating, but I still want to look somewhat
decent for Stan." she told herself as she continued searching through her closet. Suddenly she saw the perfect outfit for a New Years Eve outing a sparkling purple dress. She
went ahead and put it on. Then she went to the restroom to freshen up, put on some lipstick and perfume. As a final touch to her outfit she chose to put on some diamond
earrings and took one last look in the mirror before deciding that she looked just nice enough for Stan. "That should just about do it." she said and she proceeded to the
couch to put on some black high heeled shoes. Finally she threw on a dark purple coat, and then she grabbed her small black leather purse which had a golden strap to hang
from her shoulder and she hung it on her right shoulder. After that she took the keys, walked out, locked the door, and went off to meet Stan.
Meanwhile, Stan had since bought a house in South Park about the size of a small mansion. He was in a stressful state over how to dress for his get together with Wendy.
"Even though I'm not in an official relationship with Wendy, I think because of the somewhat friendly, possibly something more type of tension I have with her, I should be
nice and still look relatively well dressed." Stan was looking through his closet for an appropriate outfit for the occasion. Suddenly he came across his uniform, but at the last
minute he decided that it reminded him too much of work. That was something he did not want to have on his mind while he was with Wendy on New Years Eve. "Well I guess
I'll look for a more modest outfit." Stan said to himself. He resumed his search and after five more minutes he found the right outfit. A pair of long black pants, one long
sleeve red shirt, and a dark blue coat. He got dressed up and went to his bathroom to freshen up. He looked himself over in the mirror and gave his hair a quick comb over.
"Okay, I guess that's good enough." said Stan with some confidence. He sat down on the couch near the front door and put on a pair of black loafers. Then he got up, went
over to the dresser and took his black leather wallet which he immediately pocketed as well as his keys. Finally he locked up the front door and departed from his home to
meet Wendy.
Wendy had just arrived at Starks Puddle and waited for Stan, who arrived ten minutes later. He looked at her facial expression which showed her usual cheerful smile. "I'm
sorry I'm late." said Stan. "I just had a hard time picking out what to wear." "Don't worry I had the same issue as well, and also I'm guessing you live a little bit further away
from here than where I'm staying." replied Wendy. "Where are you staying?" inquired Stan. "The Hilton Max Hotel." answered Wendy. "Well then you're right about the
distance factor." said Stan. "Hey Stan, do you remember our times here as kids?" asked Wendy. "You know back when this was Starks Pond instead of Starks Puddle?" "It's
been a while, but I do remember most of it." replied Stan. "This was the first place you and I met up after I got that note from you in school." "Oh yeah!" cried Wendy with a
chuckle. "I also remember something very common during our relationship we had in our childhood." "What?" Stan inquired. "Well you would throw up everytime we'd talk or
attempt to kiss." answered Wendy. "Yeah, sorry about that." said Stan. "However I think I now know what the problem was since I'm not puking anymore when we talk." "Oh
what was the problem." asked Wendy. "Well, you were always so pretty and don't get me wrong you still are, that it would drive me insane." explained Stan. "I went through
the puberty stage as we all did, and realized that I had social anxiety whenever I was in a relationship." "Oh well, I guess that's understandable." said Wendy. "Now what did
Cartman say about you in class when Ms. Ellen was substitute during the week of Valentine's Day." "What are you referring to?" inquired a confused Stan. "Remember when
she was taking role for the class on her first day as the new substitute?" asked Wendy. "Vaguely." Stan answered. "Well, when she called your name for the first time, you
threw up." explained Wendy. "Then when she asked if you needed to go to the nurse's office, Cartman chimed in and said no he always pukes when he's in love." "Oh yeah
sorry again about that." said Stan apologetically. "It's okay Stan, I'm sorry for bringing up ancient history like that." said Wendy equally apologetic with a sigh. Stan gave her
a brief, yet comforting hug. "There were a couple sweet things that happened that day just before Ms. Ellen came in." said Stan as they ended the hug. "Now that we're
adults, I do think they were pretty cute suggestions for a couple our age." "What were they?" asked Wendy. "You said that we should go on a cruise or something and then I
said that I couldn't afford one." said Stan. "You then said that we could make a little boat out of cardboard and pretend it's a cruise. "Oh yeah, then Cartman laughed at us
real hard over that and the other suggestion I made." said Wendy as she started recalling the events of that part of the day. "I believe the other suggestion I made was then
we can dress up in little costumes and pretend we're getting married." "Yeah that was so sweet and adorable, despite the fact that Cartman laughed so hard that he fell out of
his desk." said Stan. There was a momentary silence between the two friends. "Wendy, I have something to confess to you and it's kind of awkward." said Stan nervously.
"Stan, you know that I will try to keep an open mind about almost anything." replied Wendy. "Okay, I know that this is a delicate topic, but I have to know the truth regarding
one of our grade school breakups." he said. Wendy started to feel somewhat uncomfortable, but she kept to her promise about being open minded. "Which one?" she
inquired. "The mass breakup where all of the girls broke up with their boyfriends because of the trolling by Skankhunt42." Stan replied. Wendy took a deep breath. "What
about it?" she asked. "Did you breakup with me because you wanted to or were you coerced by the other girls?" replied Stan. "Well, to be honest I was influenced by the
other girls because at that point we all had made a pact that if the trolling didn't stop, we would all use that reaction as our silver bullet, so to speak." answered Wendy. Stan
looked down at the ground. "However, despite that breakup note I gave you, I felt heartbroken to do so especially since it wasn't by my choice." she continued. "I secretly still
loved you with all my heart." Stan brought his head back up formed a smile. "You really mean that?" he asked looking to see her sincere expression. "Absolutely." she
answered. "You know I wouldn't lie to you." "Sorry it's just something I had to be sure of." said Stan. There was yet another silence between the two of them. Then Wendy
broke it. "Stan, if it's all the same to you I would really like it if we could move on and discuss other more pleasant topics than our past breakups." she requested. Stan
nodded in agreement. "I'm all for that." he stated with a newfound smile. "Sorry I brought it up at all." "It's okay." said Wendy. "So where do you want to go for New Years
Eve?" "This might be a little bit of a stretch, but since pretty much everywhere in town is closed maybe I could have you over for New Year's Eve." suggested Stan. "I'll cook
dinner for the two of us and we can watch the countdown together on my 65 inch Imax enabled flatscreen HDTV." Wendy thought for a moment. "Sure, that sounds
wonderful." she replied in agreement.
The two went back to Stan's house, but when Wendy saw how big it was she was impressed. "Stan, your house is huge, almost the size of a mansion." she said in a tone of
amazement while surveying his residence. "Thank you." replied Stan modestly. "Follow me." He led her to the kitchen where she saw that he had the latest cooking
appliances, and then finally into the entertainment room which also had the most up to date electronic devices. "Such an outstanding kitchen and sweet TV room." she said as
she observed the two rooms in their entirety. "Thank you." he replied. Then he gestured to his 127 inch wide sofa which faced his 65 inch Imax enabled flatscreen HDTV and
between the two was a brown table for eating on. "Please have a seat." "Ah, you're such a gentleman." Wendy remarked. "Thank you for the compliment." Stan answered.
Then he turned around and made his way back to the kitchen. "So what would you like to have for our New Year's Eve dinner?" inquired Stan. "I can cook almost anything."
"Well, I would love to have fettuccine alfredo." Wendy requested. "If it's not too much trouble." "It's no trouble at all, and we have quite a while till the countdown starts."
answered Stan. "Also, I'm starting to feel my Italian side coming out, so it'll be my pleasure." "Can you do it without the Alexa Robot?" asked Wendy. "Don't want things going
haywire, if you know what I mean." "Sure except for the timer, I'll just use the voice part of her for that." replied Stan in agreement. Wendy smiled at him. "Thank you, Stan."
"No problem." answered Stan as began filling up a stockpot with water. He put it on the stove and turned it to the high setting. About ten minutes later the water was boiling
and Stan poured in the fettuccine pasta. "Alexa, set timer to fifteen minutes." said Stan and gave a sideways glance at Wendy. "Stan." said Wendy in a silly voice while giving
him a sideways glance back. "You just used Alexa." "I know just for the timer as I said I would." replied Stan. "Don't worry I'm just having fun with you." stated Wendy in a
once again silly manner. "I know that's one of the qualities we both have that I love the most." said Stan. "By the way, if you want to, feel free to turn on the TV and scan for
the New Years Eve countdown channel." "Okay, I'll do that while you finish up with dinner." replied Wendy in agreement. About thirty minutes later Stan finished up the
fettuccine pasta along with the warm creamy alfredo cheese sauce. "Wendy, dinner is ready." Stan called over to her. "Please come on over, grab a plate, and help yourself."
Wendy could smell the food from the couch. "Alright." she said as she got up from the couch and started making her way to the kitchen. "Oh, it looks delicious." "I'm sorry I
would've offered to serve you, but I wasn't sure how much pasta or sauce you wanted." said Stan apologetically. "No need to apologize." Wendy replied. "I appreciate your
consideration though." She loaded her plate up with a good portion of fettuccine and topped it off with a decent amount of the creamy alfreldo cheese sauce. Then Stan did
the same, and the two of them made their way over to the couch to sit down and eat. Stan and Wendy both started eating as they watched the New Years Eve countdown
begin with the giant orb descending in Times Sqaure. They stopped eating for a moment to chant the countdown with the crowd. "Ten, Nine, Eight, Seven, Six, Five, Four,
Three, Two, One!" Then the two of them looked at each other, jumped up, and cried out in unison. "HAPPY NEW YEAR!" Finally something happened that surprised Stan.
Wendy pulled him in for a hug and kiss. "Why'd you do that?" inquired Stan who was both happy and confused by the gesture. "Well it's considered good luck for someone to
give a romantic gesture to the person they like or love." Wendy explained. "Oh, well in that case I guess I should do the same." said Stan and with that he returned the
gesture. "Also, I don't want to seem to forward, but Wendy would you like to share my bed." "No I wouldn't like that, I'd love that!" Wendy cried. With that the two of them
ate the rest of their dinners and went to bed.
To all my readers Happy New Year! Got the First Chapter done just in time!
