Meet Some Friends Of Mine (South Park X Reader)

The Second Revelation

"Kenny, I was traumatized.."

He goes quite, squeezing my hands as he looks at them.

"I couldn't— I couldn't let you get hit."

"Ken"-

"You would have died. I had no choice".

"You saved my life." I force his eyes to meet mine, leaning down to his. "I'm so sorry".

The words pour out of me from deep from within my soul, everything I never got the chance to say— everything I wanted to tell him. I get another chance. I need him to hear me.

"I'm sorry". My voice brakes as my eyes well up with tears.

I'm sorry for so many things, for his situation, for him getting hurt because of me. I can't seem to get it all out fast enough while I cry. Hoping he understands what I'm saying. Praying he can hear me.

"Princess. You remembered". He holds my gaze. "I couldn't- I never thought-", he sighs. " I never believed anyone would"!

"I"- He starts, but quickly stops himself. A look of shock in his eyes as they flash with realization.

"I... uh, am so happy". He finishes, though I get the feeling that's not what he wanted to say.

I smile and wipe my cheeks, chuckling softly and short.
"Me too".

=====
"Princess. You remembered. I couldn't- I never thought-", I sigh. "I never believed anyone would"!

The words fly out, so incredibly grateful. I can't stop myself as they spill out like hot lava.

"I"-

I..

I love you?

No, that not- I can't-

My breath catches in my throat, suddenly I can't breathe. I feel hot all over, feverish like my heart just stopped beating all together and dropped to my stomach.
She's looking at me, waiting for me to continue, but I can't think of anything else to say. I'm overwhelmed as my brain finally catches up. This whole time.
I've never felt this before. Like I can't stop myself from trying to say it. Like it's screaming out at me.

No, it's just- the moment.

I can't.

"I... uh, am so happy". I desperately try to save myself, move on from this never think about it again.

She chuckles at me and wipes her cheeks, she smiles bright and my heart beats again. Like she's the reason I came back to life. For this moment right now, for this reason.

"Me too".

Shit.
=====

"I can't imagine— how painful this is for you". I scrunch my eyes, sad and pitiful.

"It's not fun". He chuckles, but it feels sad.

"I'm here for you". I tell him.

"What?"

"I remember, I know. You're not alone anymore". I hold his hand.

It doesn't last very long as it seems he can't help himself but hug me tight. He's always been touchy, but today it feels different. Like right now I see him, completely serious.
We stay like that for a while, continuing to talk through everything. I feel the burden lift off my chest, finally not weighed down by the fog in my brain, or the weight on my lungs.
We laugh together, cry, and scream at the top of our lungs completely free.

I chuckle. "Where even are we?" I ask, looking around.

"My secret spot." He looks to me, a glint of mischief in his eyes.

"The forests?"

"Come on, I'll show you". He stands up and pats himself off, I watch still on the ground as he smiles at me and holds his hand out for mine.

I roll my eyes, but grateful to take it anyway as he begins to lead me deep into the forest. He never lets go of my hands as we climb over tree stumps and jump over ponds of running water.

"How far is this thing?" I ask him, slightly out of breath.

"Just ahead". He winks at me.

I ignore him, continuing to follow his lead.
Eventually we walk up to a beautiful giant bush, that looks like it would grow flowers in the right season. He looks at me and wiggles his eyebrows, before letting go of my hand and walking straight into the bush.

What the fuck?

"Come on!" I hear from the other side.

Suspicious, I reluctantly step into the bush. Pushing past branches and twigs while they get stuck in my hair. I find the other side finally and groan as I peel twigs out of my locks.
The moment I raise my gaze I'm mesmerized by the scenery.
It's a beautiful clearing in the florets, soft grass and purple flowers weed in through the floor. I hear running water and notice the small waterfall in the corner that connects to the ponds we jumped over. Next to the waterfall is a big, birch treehouse decorated with fairy lights and posters. I can't see the inside, but I can tell it's cozy. The house is a little decade, growing into the tree instead of on it like it's been here for years.
My jaw drops open as I spin around, trying to take in every sight. I catch Kenny's eye and he's smiling, not looking at anything but me.

"Ken— this is beautiful!" I gasp. "How long has this been here?"

"Since I was nine". He shrugs.

I chuckled at him, wondering why he never showed me this before. It's magical, like something out of a fairytale.

"I've never.. brought anyone here before. Just me and Karen."

I turn to look at him, incredibly honored. The smile on my face grows loud and bright as he has to look away from it. I see his wide eyed expression and I laugh at him.

"Come on!" I tell him, taking off running. Desperate to see the inside of the treehouse.

=====
"Come on!" She yells, taking of running.

I stand there for a minute, stunned.

I never thought I would bring anyone here. I never thought anyone would understand me like she does.

I never thought I could feel this way.

I'm so fucked.
