Another Sip (Style)

~ Chapter 5 ~

I took a little bit, but Kyle still wasn't out of my head. I just took more, and more, but he wouldn't leave my head. I pretty much drank the whole bottle, and I was still thinking about Kyle.. his hair, his face, his eyes, him. I could barely make it back to my bed, I was drunk as fuck. Hours passed, I tried to check my phone, and I could at least do that. '5:59' goddamn it! I didn't get any sleep and I have to get ready soon.. I throw the bottle out in the trash can, I stuff it to the bottom so nobody would know I had it. If Kyle knew, he'd be furious..

When I threw it out, I tried walking back to my bed, but I became dizzy.. and next thing you know, I passed out on the floor.

// Kyle's POV //

I wake up, and look at the time, '6:37', I get ready and I check my phone. I looked at the notifications, and they were texts from Stan.. at 3 am?

"What the actual fuck-" I said to myself. I get fully ready and I chill on TikTok before I walk out the door to get to the bus stop. I check my phone and I see a text from Stan

———————————————————
SBF❤️: hey dude, I'm staying home today, I feel like shit.
———————————————————

I sigh and I realize that school is gonna suck ass today anyways, I wouldn't really mind if I had to take the test tomorrow.

I tell Kenny and Cartman that I'm taking care of Stan today. They nod and I walk off to get to Stan's house. I walk up to his room, and slowly open it. I saw Stan passed out on his bed, and I sat near him.

I went through his stuff to make sure he wasn't drinking or anything, because I was really worried if he had drunk any alcohol. I know, it was a little too overprotective there, but I really want to keep him safe!

I just stopped looking after I found nothing. I look over to Stan and he's waking up. "Kyle..?" He's still tired so he sounds pretty quiet. "Oh uh, hi Stan! I just came over to take care of you" he looks at me once, looks back to the floor, then looks back kinda scared.

// Stan's POV //

I look at Kyle, I try to remember something so I look down, because it helps me think. I then realized something as I looked back up at him.. if I talk, he's going to smell the alcohol in my breath.. and I drank a whole fucking bottle..

He asked me a question, "Stan, are you um.. okay?" I tried not to speak, I just looked at him and nodded. I got up and I went to the bathroom, I tried to brush my teeth as much as possible to get the alcohol smell off. I got most of it off, not all. I went downstairs and I drank some Kool aid, which surprisingly got all the alcohol smell out of my mouth. I then go back upstairs to Kyle sitting on my bed waiting for me, confused as to why I left randomly. I was not going to tell him about last night.

"What happened last night?" He asked
Did he figure it out?!
"Oh uh.. nothing" I reply

// Kyle's POV //

I feel the need to check his room again, but last time I found nothing, so I shouldn't. Wait, I never checked his trash, he would've put it there if he was really, really trying to hide it. "I'm probably just overthinking all of this" I said to myself, "there's no way he actually-" but then I found it, near the bottom of his trash can was a whole drank bottle, I was surprised because I took all the bottles away from him, and I checked his trash when I did that to make sure he wasn't hiding any in there. He started to walk in so I just sat on his bed and waited.

"What happened last night?" I ask
Hopefully he didn't drink all of that, and I was just overthinking about it.
"Oh uh.. nothing" He says

I just believed him, because I didn't want to think about it all day..

I asked him, "So do you want to hang out, maybe go to the park?"
He nodded and smiled a little bit.

The two boys were walking to the park. Kyle looks over at Stan and they both realize the blush appearing on each other's face as they look away. They boys got to the park and they sat next to each other on the swings. They swing for a while just talking, until they see a car pull up to the park. They're confused as to why a random woman was getting out of the car, but then realized it was Kyle's mom.

// Kyle's POV //

I see my mom walking from her car, she was supposed to be home in a few days from now though. She walks over to me and she looks mad. "Kyle, your grades have been dropping, and I heard you haven't been to school for a while, what is the meaning of this!?" I look up at her a little scared as to if my soon response will make her even more mad, "I've been taking care of Stan, he's been-" I try to finish my sentence, but she interrupts, "Kyle, your coming home now" she grabs my wrist and drags me to the car. I wave slightly to Stan, and he waves back.
