Jealousy

I look down thinking to myself.

"Okay, but we have to come up with where you will stay. I told my dad I'm his long lost cousin and he believed me. I make sure he has someone constantly with him at all times."

"I can't do that with my dad. He saw me at the school. I would have told him I was related to him at that point."

"Hmm well.. You can make yourself look different in a way and trick him."

"How?"

"Your clothes aren't really 80's vibe.. You need to understand what you can and can't say as well."

"What, I don't know any 80's shit."

"Okay well, all you have to do is be a gentlemen. Do not curse and you need to change this." I said grabbing his shirt."

"Really? I have to change this?" He said looking at me weird.

"Yeah, come on I'll take you somewhere really quick."

"Now?"

"Yes, before they close."

I grabbed his hand guiding him toward the town considering it was pretty dark.

When we approached a clothing store we went inside to see the cashier looking at Stan really weird.

"What are you wearing?" She bluntly said.

"Oh he's new to fashion, can you help us come up with an outfit please?"

"Oh course, anything to get him out of those."

I could hear Stan 'tsk.'

She looked back at Stan then went to a specific rack of clothes.

"Why don't you try this on." She said handing him something fairly quick.

He looked at the stack will taking it and made his way to the changing room while saying nothing.

I was looking through some clothes for awhile when I hear the dressing room door open.

I look back to only feel my heart slightly accelerate. I saw him in a white t shirt with a leather jacket loosely over and blue jeans. He looked at the mirror holding the jacket out kind of admiring it.

"Wow you look so much better." Said the cashier.

"What do you think?" I asked.

"Uhh still feels weird but I'll get used to it, I guess."

"Yeah just remember we are here for one reason." I added.

"Yeah I know."

"Okay, let's get ready, our dads are waiting."

"Wait where at?"

"The drive-in."

"Oh uhh okay. I'll hurry up."

When he went to change out of his outfit. I looked over at the cashier.

"Is that your boyfriend?" She cooed.

My face sparked with instant heat.

"N-no. He's not."

"Oh well do you think I can give him my phone number?"

I felt my stomach ache while not understanding why.

"N-no... He's seeing someone." I lied.

"Oh.. okay."

"So, how much do I owe you?" I asked while grabbing my wallet.

"Are you really paying for him?"

"Yes, because I'm a good FRIEND."

"Mmmm seems a little more than that." She teased.

I grit my teeth while not being in the mood.

"How much?" I said through my teeth.

She typed in the cash register.

"$47 together."

I took out $50.

I see Stan come out holding the clothes.

"Keep the change. Let's go Stan."

"Wait you paid?"

"Yes I did. You don't have any money, now let's go."

I grabbed his hand pulling him outside fairly quickly.

"Whoa.. Are you okay?"

"Yup I'm great. Okay, so why don't you change into the clothes now."

He looked at me confused.

"Uhh why don't I go back inside and change?" He said condescendingly.

I felt my heart accelerate.

"Okay.. Fine." I mumbled getting slightly irritated.

______________

I breathed out.

'What's taking him so long?'

I hear the door open while he had his other clothes in a bag.

"Took you long enough." I said looking at him unamused.

"Oh uhh... The cashier kept me inside."

"Why?"

He held up a paper with a phone number on it.

I roll my eyes.

"Let's go." I groaned.

"Whoa wait. You okay?"

"Yeah, I'm great."

We walked for awhile on the sidewalk.

It was getting darker.

"Your not going to call her, right?!" I blurted out.

"What?"

"The cashier?"

"Uhh I don't know..Why do you care?"

"I don't." I spat out.

"I think your lying."

"You know what?" I said while stopping in my tracks.

"I thought we were here to save our dads... Not get numbers!" I yelled getting more worked up.

"Whoa.. Why does it matter?"

I scuffed while continuing to walk.

"Hey."

I felt him grab my arm.

I looked back him feeling fire in my eyes.

"Are you jealous or something?"

My heart jolted toward the comment.

"N-no... I'm not jealous..." I stuttered getting flustered.

"I sense your lying again."

"You know what, it doesn't matter. Call her and waste my fucking time."

"Hey, calm down... What's gotten into you?"

"I'm here for ONE thing. But it seems your here to be the same old Stanley Marsh, going after any girl that throws themselves at you. Why don't you try changing yourself before changing your father!" I yelled out.

His eyes widen in shock as I stormed off just wanting out of this situation all together.

I hear his footsteps coming closer.

"Come on we are almost th-" I was cut off when I hear the tires peeling again.

'Fuck not now it's so dark!!'

I quickly look behind me looking for a pair of headlights. When I turned I see Stan walking up to me oblivious to what was behind him. My breath got taken away as I see a car coming full speed directly toward us.

I grabbed Stan's arms and pushed him as hard as I could on his back. I quickly dove next to him panting hard as it all happened in a matter of seconds.

"W-what the fuck...." He breathed out.

I quickly get up.

"Stan.. We need to get up."

"D-Did you not realize what you just did? You saved me."

"I know Stan.. I saved my dad and he save your dad. Now, I need you to be on high alert on the sidewalk apparently this happens everyday."

"Ohh uhh, anything else I need to know about?" He asked while pulling himself to his feet.
