Chapter Text
Okay okay okay! Let’s back up.
You MAY just maybe see a poor little boy crying all the time, WAHHH WAHH, yeah exactly that’s what you see me as. And guess what? It’s SORTA true, and guess what? I don’t give a SHIT what you think. Just an emotional guy, ladies love that. I am pretty neat, even ranked the first by the girls in my class. Literally one of my best achievements. You may know who I am, not super tall but roughly around 5’8 (175) IF you’re squinting and standing like a few feet/meters away from me. Brown, BEAUTIFUL hair, a sexy ass body, and chocolate eyes. That’s right baby! It’s Donovan time!
THIS story is about me, finally something about the best guy in the gang. Yeah I know most of you guys probably think that Craig or Kyle is the coolest people, but guess what— YOU’RE WRONG.
I don’t wanna hear it, because my opinion is pretty dang right! Now listen to me. Taco or pizza, obviously taco unless you’re a r- (sHHH)… This is South Park Cmon!
fine.
I only got 10 seconds left before I have to talk about the school so, Remember to subscribe to my YouTube channe-

Token smacked his Mac together with a bored look on his face. Was he serious? He turned his face to his best friend who was smiling like a puppy. He know that he awaited a response which would sound something like ‘this was a great video to introduce the school!’ Who gave Clyde the responsibility for advertising the school. Was he going to approve this?
Yeah?
No.
No he didn’t approve. Instead he inhaled some air and gazed at the nearly empty classroom. It was lunch at the moment and most students went in the cafeteria at this time. Shit, nobody escape to.
“So?”
Clyde started, his eyes sparkling on purpose.
“Uh. Okay. Please don’t take this in the wrong way, but it’s really inaccurate”
Clyde immediately frowned and crossed his arms. He backed up and tilted his head. He seemed confused now, or offended. Actually both. He raised his brow and pouted. For a 17 year old he sure didn’t act like it. Then his face changed again and this time he seemed bored “No but seriously does it really suck?”
“Uh. Listen. First of all saying information about yourself like that is uneccisary. Just your name would be fine, and second. You make Valorant and Fortnite videos Clyde, people will make fun of you”
“Why? Those games are fire”
Token sighed “it’s just how people are dude. Come on let’s pack up. Next class is around the corner, we have to get to economics” The dark haired stood up from his seat and zipped his bag after stuffing his Mac in. The two of them headed out of the classroom and towards the cafeteria as they met on to South Parks very own famous gay pairing. Truth was, those two were never really dated before prom about 2 years ago. Back in 10th grade Tweek confessed to Craig, and surprise surprise! Craig felt the same. There had been some drama between them the same year which made them realise this. However that would not be discussed further at this moment.
“Hey man” Craig said and gave a high five & handshake to token. They were best friends, and had been best friends the longest. Although the trio, with Clyde were all extremely close. To Clyde however craig only ruffled his hair “Hey lice boy” Token greeted Tweek with a ‘Sup’ while Clyde frowned under Craig’s hand.
Clyde shoved Craig’s hand away and gave a bearhug to Tweek who tensed up and grinned nervously “Woah!- calm down dude. I’m right here” he said giving a light pat on his back and Clyde sighed “They’re so mean to me, I only have you left now spazzy!” Tweek shot a confused glance at the other two. They both shrugged and started to talk about something else. “Come on, it’s not like that. Next period is in 5 minutes, you guys gotta go” thaw blonde responded and lowered his arms.
Finally clyde let go of tweek and sighed even heavier than before. A bit dramatic perhaps. As this happened, a pair of crutches came waddling towards them. And that was no other than Jimmy Valmer. “H-hey guys. R-ready for t-the t-t-t…trhh….teehhhh…-t-t…trehhh…t..Treeee…t-trip?”
Everyone greeted him happily, who couldn’t love this guy?
Token crossed his arms as he looked at everyone in the group. Now they all were assembled. It was time for a introduction. Even though you all know these people from before, we are doing this whenever you like it or not. (Tokens POV)
That’s guy over there is Clyde, you already know who this guy is and he is literally the main character, jk. Everyone has had a growth spurt since high school and guess what, I did too. Either way I would say that Clyde is one of the people that never really changed. He prides himself of being half a head taller than tweek, that’s something at least. He still only talks about girls and he still wears that same red old jacket of his, and he doesn’t really have a sexy body to say it nicely. In fact he is pretty chubby. Not like I would ever say that to him. He’s on the lacrosse team with me and on the football team with Stan. Sporty for the ladies huh. Just for some reason, my type..? Although I wasn’t really gay or anything.
Well, to the right we have Craig Tucker. I bet all of you know who he is, if not he is literally the most famous gay guy in our town you know the rest yada yada. If you are simping for him, you gotta get in line. Because you are not the only one. He is dating tweek and he got a good growth spurt thanks to his gigantic parents. He’s lanky as a noodle, but his height and explosive anger could be intimidating. Either way everyone thought he was cool. He had ditched the ‘asshole’ attitude and tried to make a effort to be nicer to people. Or at least respond properly to them. Although, he still had the same expressions as a rock. Oh yeah, he paints his nails black now.
Next to Craig we have Tweek. As you may know he is Craigs boyfriend. He’s almost a head shorter than Craig, for the time being at least. Poor guy with his parents, I bet he will remain somewhat short for a bit longer. Although he’s still growing. His blonde hair had grown to the point he could have a tiny ponytail. Quite fitting actually. And he is wearing a green vest and a white shirt beneath it. He still got caffeine addiction, although he toned it down which is massive progress. Did his parents ever get sued for putting meth in their coffee? They did. And then something happened. But that’s up to Kyle and those guys to talk about, because they sure as hell whipped up a storm again.
Then at last we have our favourite comedian Jimmy. As you can see he has also got a growth spurt and he is now a little bit taller than Clyde. If he could stand up straight that is. He still runs the school papers and writes jokes on his freetime. Lately things had been going well for him and I’ve heard he got some good contacts within the show biz. We sure cheer him on good.
(End of tokens POV)
Tokens thoughts was interrupted as a heavy arm was locked around his neck. Clyde leaned up against him and grinned “so? Can I drive? Pretty please lovely bestie Token?” Token stared at Clyde and sucked his lips in, staring at Clyde as he slowly shook his head.
“Damn it!” He said “I just got my license man! Dude I passed and you should be SUEPR supportive and let me drive your super expensive car”
Token facepalmed and Craig raised his brow “You’d crash one. I doubt anyone would lend you their car” Facts hurt didn’t they? Token gazed at Clyde whom ignored Craigs comment and simply kept puppy eying everyone. “For a fact, I am driving” Craig said. “I-in your l-lanky c-c-car?” Jimmy asked with a innocent smile on his face. The ravenette slightly glared as he took offence. His parents weren’t rich or anything, so his parents had only gotten him a simple cheap red car that was on sale. Either way, he didn’t mind. He could hang up a pair of pink dices in them to flex.
Poor Tweek though.
“Yes in my extremely good car” He said and crossed his arms. “It’s not automatic though” Clyde said “it’s the feature Craig!” The ravenette stared at Clyde without any emotions shown on his face. Just staring him down until the brunette kept quiet. Tweek however crossed his arms and tilted his head to the side “Okay then, that’s fine. We’ll meet tomorrow at Craig’s, on the afternoon” Clyde tilted his head “hold on! Where was this place again? How long does it take to get there?” Jimmy perked up “I-it’s outside of D-Denver. Cherry Creek Road Campground? Right?” To this token and Craig nodded. “Takes about 2 hours with a car”
Jimmy nodded “S-sounds good” Token nodded and Clyde smiled. Craig was dead as a rock. But showed a thumbs up.
He probbaly didn’t feel like doing anything, but since this was a one time thing before they had to separate, he had no choice.
The next period started. And after school as Token was about to go home, Clyde came jogging up to him. “Hey dude!” The other turned with a smile “Yeah man?” The brunette then seemed like he was charging up, like a ball of happiness he seemed excited about something “My match today-..DUDE it’s going to be. AMAZING. You’re coming right? To see me?”
Token scratched the back of his head. Truth was that he was sleepy, something at home had kept him from taking naps. But he had rarely missed any of clydes matches, since he had always attended them since he quit the football team.
“Yeah, of course. I’d never miss it, ever”
The brunette lit up again, shooting a warm smile that hit directly in tokens heart. How was someone this cute?..Why did it make Tokens heart beat. It was a weird feeling to have for your best-friend. That’s all they were, friends. Yet this feeling had been latched on for a few years now. And he couldn’t shake it off. Lately he had noticed things.
The way he talks, the way he smiles, the way he eats. It made him happy to observe him. And that felt weird. It felt unnatural because, he wasn’t gay. He wasn’t queer. He was straight, that’s what he was. And that was what Clyde was. He always chased after girls like a dog, and guess what. For some reason, he had actually pulled a few girls but they never lasted. However Token only dated two girls his whole life. Wendy and Nichole.
Sure he liked them, they’re cute, they’re super nice. And he misses Nichole a lot. She moved after 10th grade, they tried to keep contact but ended up stopping after some time. The conversation he back when he realised he couldn’t chase her anymore was the same time tweek had just broken up with Craig.
[Flashback 10th grade; Tokens POV]
“You can’t keep chasing her. Shes gone, and she’s been gone for a year now. Almost two”
I frowned and leant my cheek in to my palm. It was like a empty hole in my stomach. Something was missing. The girl who held my hands, kissed my cheek and said she loved me. That feeling was gone, that part of me was gone. It was like a hollow drain, and it felt like it kept dripping water with no end. It was bothersome, irritating and scary.
“I know. I just miss her that’s all”
Craig nodded to me. I knew he understood what I felt, and even though he was bad with showing caring sympathy, I knew how he was. I had been friends with him for such a long time, I could tell.
“I’ll get over it soon”
My friend leant back in my bed and sighed. We were hanging in my room that day, just casually boy talking while playing on my Xbox. Yes I was team Xbox don’t judge.
“What about you?”
Craig lost on purpose and put down the console. He furrowed his brows together and bit his under lip.
“He doesn’t want me back. The thing with Thomas, I just. Didn’t know what I was doing..”
I let out a light sigh and placed my console down as well. I turned my head as I listened to Craig talk about his latest problems as well. Lately Craig had started venting to me, which is very understandable. The situation he was in was a bit difficult.
“Did you like him though?”
Craig lowered his head “I..thought I did. But I couldn’t stop thinking about Tweek so I fucked up with him. I know we broke up when we realised this whole gay thing had to properly stop, I mean. We were kids! How the fuck should we know what being gay is supposed to be- and his paranoia drove me insane. I know not many can deal with it, but I got tired too”
I nodded as he spoke.
“You two have been together for so long, I am sure you two can figure something out. Be patient and honest, I haven’t spoken to tweek lately, but I’m sure it’ll be okay”
And guess what.
It did.
Guess who confessed to Craig on prom right in front of everyone? And guess who’s now all locked together like a pair of cherry’s. Yeah. Them. And I am all for it and all, but now I sort of feel jealous of them. It’s so easy you know, everyone supports it and loves them. But if I were gay, my parents would probably become a bit disappointed. Mostly my father. Would it be the same for me if I was gay? I didn’t know. Either way
[Tokens POV: flashback end]
Token smiled as Clyde waved to him as he left. This undying feeling in his stomach wouldn’t leave him. Not only had he a lack of sleep. He felt more down than ever, which was unusual for Token. Because he was generally positive and calm. Now he only struggled to keep his chill, to act normal.
He pulled out his phone. He needed to understand this more. And to do it, he needed to research it.
[me]: Hey, Can I come over tomorrow? I want to discuss that thing.
[SpaceStripe// my bro]: Sure. Tweek will also be there, is that ok?
[me]: Yeah, thanks dude.
If anyone could tell him what his sexuality was, it would be tweek and Craig.
After taking the bus home, token dropped dead on his bed. He was tired. But he couldn’t sleep yet. He forced himself to sit up and head over to his desk. Token sat down and began writing. He had ambitions, dreams. To earn his own money and be just as successful as his parents. Maybe even more than they were. He didn’t want to live by his parents pocket, and therefor he worked hard.
Hours passed and eventually he had drifted off.
Knock knock.
Riiiiiing riiiing!
Token blinked as their housekeeper stood in the doorway with a panting brunette besides her. “Mr. Token, Uhm..Clyde has visited you?”
Tokens vision was a bit blurry from just waking up, and before he knew it clyde had launched himself at token, crying. “I THOUGHT YOU DIED OR SOMETHING!” Then he squeezed token tighter, making him gasp. Their housekeeper closed the door and went to do something else.
Meanwhile the dark haired boy was currently struggling under the others weight. “P-please! Get off me I’m fine” Clyde stumbled up on his feet with a ‘sorry’ and a nervous smile. “Where were you? I tried looking for you under the match, but you never came! I got worried, I thought you died or got kidnapped!-“
Token raised his brow “Thats ridiculous. I can karate dude, I’d be fine” he said with a reassuring smile. Clyde sighed and sniffed as he wiped his tears. “So..why didn’t you come?..”
Come to what? Oh. Shit.
Tokens eyes widened and he groaned “I’m so sorry..I forgot. I fell asleep because I haven’t slept in awhile. I’m sorry Clyde, I really am” The brunette cocked his head to the side. “That makes sense..that’s why your eyes had those huge bags! Dude. Why didn’t you tell me? You scared me for nothing” he gave token a gentle smack on the back of his head. Then his eyes noticed all the papers spread throughout tokens desk. He gasped and rushed over to see it.
“ITS THE PROJECT YOU’RE DOING”
Like a torpedo token launched at Clyde, dragging him back until they both were wrestling. “Dont look at that!” Token yelled as he struggled to keep his grip on Clyde. And then, he stumbled in to the bed, falling down on the floor, pushing Clyde in the process. And just like that, he was hovering on top of Clyde, only inches away from his face. He could feel the others breath brush against his own lips. Token blushed rapidly and was quick to stumble up his on his feet.
“I-I’m sorry, but seriously dude, lay off my work” then Token went to his desk and stuffed the papers in the drawers. Clyde only chuckled and sat up. “Cmon, help me up! It’s your fault I fell after all” he held out his hand. Token sighed and went over to drag Clyde on his feet, and as he did this he shoved token on the floor, taking him down with him as he locked him in his grip. “AH!!” Token screamed as he fell on the ground.
Clydes breath brushed over his neck. If he wasn’t such a stupid ass teenager with hormones he wouldn’t take it this way!
“Payback!” He said. Token was about to tell the other to simply get off him, but the moment he felt clydes knee brush his thigh, he screamed.
“CLYDE GET OFF!”
Clyde was taken back and quickly let go of token. “Sorry dude-“ token turned his back, he rarely snapped, but this time he had a reason to. “I have to go get something, just go home- I’m sorry I missed your match-..” like that he rushed out of his bedroom and in to his bathroom. This wasn’t good. Since when did he feel THAT way about Clyde? What the hell. He wanted to smack his head in the wall and jump out the window.
“Kill me…” he muttered as he gazed down. He was turned on wasn’t he.. what the hell.
When he heard the door close downstairs Token had between two choices. Let it be or do something with it.
“Shit”
That night, Token didn’t get much sleep. The only thing he could think of was how embarrassingly his body reacted to such a innocent situation. This wasn’t good.
