Warninggg: another mention of that, you guessed it, suicide attempt.

// Still Kyle's POV //

We enter the bathroom. "Stan.. did you-"

Butters enters the bathroom-

Butters looks at us, "Oh hey fellas!" We didn't say hi back, but did we ever? Cause I surely don't remember that.

Butters gets done and says, "Um.. ok bye!"

I look at Stan again and I begin talking, "Stan I need to ask you something." "Yeah what is it?" He responded. I continued, "Well did you-" an interruption comes soon, the fire alarm. Of course it was a drill, the announcements said it, I honestly don't know why we still do this. "Oh my God" I said annoyed.

Stan took my hand and we walked out of the bathroom, he held my hand the whole time we got out, and I couldn't help but blush. Goddammit why am I blushing so much? I'm pretty sure I don't have a crush on him.. I think. We get outside and we get into the line.

The teacher announced, "Alright everyone, this drill was to get you outside, obviously. Instead of class you guys can take a break from school, and hang out here. You can be on your phones as long as you'd like, that option is back. I know Scott Malkinson ruined it for you all 2 months ago, but now you can be on your phones this whole time if you'd like. Or I don't fucking know, do whatever you would like."

Everyone starts talking to people and I find this a great opportunity to ask Stan about this.

I took Stan's hand and I pulled him over to an empty area outside, but we kept getting interrupted, over and over and over. Later when we were inside the school, I pulled him over to the empty part of the hallway nobody goes to. "Stan, we need to talk." I say. He looks confused, "about what?" I look around to make sure nobody is near, "Kenny told me that you tried to commit.." he looked shocked, "I-… thats a lie-!" He sounded unsure, so it was true. He really did try.. "Stan, why would you even try that? What sort of event led you to do that?" He looks at the ground and doesn't say a thing. "I- I don't know! I just lost control after.." "after what?" I ask. The bell rings for us to go home and he runs out of the situation. "Stan!" I called out for him but he didn't answer, he kept running.

I got my stuff and I looked out the school doors, he was nowhere to be seen, so I just took the shortcut home..

// Stan's POV (short) //

Why would Kenny tell him that!? Kyle's already been taking care of me without my choice, and now he knows this!?

First, Kenny had already told my parents, which fucked up a lot of things. Now he told Kyle, this made everything worse..

I catch up with Kenny, "oh hey Stan-" I start talking, "Kenny what the fuck!?" He looks shocked at me.

// Kenny's POV (short as well) //

Stan runs up beside me, "Oh hey Stan-" I could barely finish my sentence before he started speaking, "Kenny what the fuck!? I was shocked because he hadn't been like this all day.. "Woah dude chill, what happened?" I ask. "What happened was you told Kyle about me trying to hang myself!!!!!!" He replies. I was shocked, I forgot I had told him that…

"Stan i-" I tried to talk him through this, but he doesn't want to talk to me much, "No, that's it, first you told my parents, now you've told Kyle!?" "Stan I'm so-" again being interrupted, "no! Save it! I'm done!" He ran off before I got to explain.

// Stan's POV //

I can't believe he did this, he's told more people without asking if it's ok… I laid in my bed and I just covered my face, upset. I hear my door open, "Stan..?" I heard a familiar voice say. I looked over to see it was Kyle. He sat beside me, "Stan I know you won't answer me, so I won't bring it up again." He brought me food, "oh uh.. I already ate" I obviously lied, I know Kyle was trying to help me, but I didn't want help, I didn't even want to be alive at this point.

"Stan, I know for a fact you didn't eat" he said, putting the plate of food by my bedside. "I really don't care about eating, Kyle, I'm fine." He looked at me like I was stupid, "Uh, yeah no. You're eating" he said, trying to make me eat. I barely cared about eating, I just wanted to have a good life, but of course that doesn't work out. I avoided the food he tried to give me, "Stop" I said weakly. He sighed and said he'd be back. I took this as an opportunity to drink more of the alcohol I had bought, this one was definitely stronger than the other one. I started coughing, but I still drank it. I could barely speak a sentence. Kyle walks in and sees me with the bottle. "STAN!"

He snatched the bottle, there was maybe 1/10 of the alcohol in the bottle left. "Stan, I told you not to do this!!!" I look at him, "can I… have it back..?" I asked. "You're fucking joking.. right!? Stan this could fucking kill you and your just ganna let that happen!? That's it. I'm telling your parents." He said. I looked at him once again, "wait- please don't." I say shaking. I get up and I fall into his arms, too drunk to stand properly.

// Kyle's POV //

He falls into my arms. I hug him, then I put him back in bed. "Stan, you need to eat food, and please stop with the alcohol." I give him a plate of food and I make sure that he's eating. When he was half done, I had to go. I left and went to my house. Did I miss being friends with him? Yes. Am I going to let us be friends again? Maybe not. I know that sounds rude or something, but I just can't deal with all of this when I'm already taking care of him. I'd rather have only my worries, and not have to worry about everything he's doing.

Soon I get tired, I fall asleep once I enter my room and get on my bed.

// The next day //

// Kyle's POV //

I enter school and when the bell rings we go to our classrooms. "Alright class i'm your substitute, Mr. Mackey, mkay?" What the fuck. Wasn't he the counselor in elementary? "Your teacher told me that he'd be out today because he's going to some fucking therapy session, mkay and it's taking forever."

He looked mad, but calmed down, "Now we have a new student, and some of you should remember from elementary, mkay,  Wendy Testaburger" Wendy entered the room, and she had a pretty nice glow up. I look over to Stan whose eyes widened at the sight of her.

I felt a little upset seeing Stan look at her like that.

Was I perhaps..

Jealous..?

// Author's note //

This was a little shorter than chapter 11, and I'm sorry about that. I honestly do not remember if I ever put Wendy in a chapter, but if I did, please forget she existed until now 😊

Im feeling kinda stupid for making this chapter only kinda centered around Stan's suicide attempt- forgive me😭

Chapter 13 is most likely gonna come out tmr, but it depends.

Imma try to slow down on the suicide stuff for a bit so uhh- I hope you enjoyed this shortish chapter!
