(quick an: tysm for 1k reads I hope you all like this chapter!!!! And on my Southpark one-shots, I have 69 reads lol. Tysm for pointing out writting flaws cause I'd much rather know so I can fix them!! Sometimes my brain just turns off when I'm writting so tysm! This chapter is kinda a filler chapter but I think it's still a decent chapter so don't mind the odd title.

"Stan?" I murmur as I spot him sitting against a wall crying. He looks up, panic in his dark, watery eyes. "Kyle..?" he murmurs in reply, wiping his tears away with his arm.

"What's wrong?" I ask. He might have been ignoring me but I still love him. I slide down the wall and sit crisis-cross next to him. Silence rings in my ears and I barely dare to breathe.

"Everything," he whispers, his shakey voice breaking the long pause of silence. I just sit there, I have no idea what you're supposed to say to that. So I don't say anything. I look down at his hand that's placed in the small gap between us and I put my hand on top of his. I give his hand a gentle squeeze. I'm trying to say I'm here dude. 

"Sorry about not meeting up with you out front," he says, glancing over at me. "It's not a big deal," I reply. This reminds me why I requested we talk in the first place, a quiet sigh falls from my lips into the silent hall. "Can we talk about why you've been... uh... avoiding me?" I ask him awkwardly. "Can we talk about anything but that?" He asks back.

I want to know what's been up with him. This whole ignoring me shit has been killing me. All I can think is what did I do wrong? I can't think of anything but you never know.

"Please?" I ask. He pulls his hand out from under mine and stares at the wall in front of him. "I can't. Not right now, but I swear I'll stop ignoring you," he tells me. That answer bugs me. I mean dude... you literally ignored me for what? 2 weeks? And now you're just like I can't tell you why but we can hang out again. I trust him though, I'm sure he has a reason for not telling me whatever it is. Doesn't make it any less annoying though.

At least he said he'll stop ignoring me. Talking to him makes me so happy and smiley it's so stupid. My mom caught me smiling at my phone about a month ago when we were texting. She didn't know who I was texting but I hadn't even realized I was smiling at my phone until she had pointed it out. "Do you wanna hang out instead then?" I question. He smiles at me and just nods.

... (fancy time skip shit!)

We end up walking down to the bowling alley/ arcade. We head straight for the arcade. Neither of us has very much money on us but we have enough to play a few games. We get our tokens and look around to decide what to do first. "Wanna do dance dance revolution?" I ask spotting it across the room. I suck at it like I really really suck at it but it's still a fun game. "Sure!" he chirps in reply.

We play that for a few rounds then play ski ball, some shooting game, and some racing game. It's fun but the whole time I can't help but feel... off? I can't stand not knowing why he was ignoring me.

Now we only have a few tokens. We wander around looking at the machines when a stuffed rabbit catches my eye. It's a tannish color and kinda old looking but the best part is its eyes. Two big googly eyes that make it look hilarious. I point at it. "I want that thing," I announce. "Bet I can win it for you!" Stan says confidently. I smile at this gesture and grin playfully "Bet you can't!"

He does end up winning it for me, I tried a few times and got close but he's the one who won it. I proudly parade it around the arcade with me while we spend our final tokens. On the way out of the arcade, my phone buzzes. It's Kenny.

Kenny- Dude, how'd talking with Stan go?

Kyle- fine, we didn't end up talking, just hanging out at the arcade

Kenny- so u dont know y he's been ignoring u..?

Kyle- no, he doesn't wanna talk abt it but wtv it is I guess he'll tell me when he's ready

Kenny- why dont u just ask him out istg he'd say yes, ur both so fucking gay for each other

Kyle- cause genius, he's been avoiding me the last 2 weeks.

Kenny- anyways, ttyl I'm gonna do hw

Kyle- ur hanging out with Butters aren't u?

Kenny- stfu :)

I shut my phone off. I walk Stan to his house and say goodbye and then walk to mine. I put the googly-eyed bunny on the bed next to me. It was a great investment. I can't stop thinking about him now. Every time I see that rabbit.

I open my camera roll and scroll back until I find selfies of the two of us together. The photos are comforting to me, good memories. I stare at him in the photos and smile.

After a while of staring at photos, I go down for dinner, eat, and then go back up to my room and listen to music for a while. I still can't stop thinking about him. Maybe I text him? Yeah.

Kyle- Hey, what's up dude

For a few minutes, he doesn't reply which makes me start to worry. Is he back to ignoring me? Damn it.

Stan- nothing hbu?

Kyle- bored

Stan- lol that sucks

Kyle- wish I was still at the arcade with u, I had fun lol

He didn't reply to that. I sigh loudly, he seriously left me on read. Having a crush fucking sucks sometimes. At least he's not fully ignoring me but I feel like I'm chasing something that'll never happen. It's probably a sign I should move on but I just can't. Damn it.
