Chapter Text
A few cleanish t-shirts and jeans, diary, deodorant, his PSP aaand a playboy which they stole from their dad..that should be all! they had all kinds of shit stuffed into their parka pockets anyway.
Kenny McCormick zipped up their worn out backpack as they pulled the strings of their hood tighter to show as little of their face as possible.
The blonde peaked their head out to the hallway checking if their father was awake yet. good for Kenny, Stuart McCormick was still passed out on the couch after last night’s drinking spree.
Kenny soundlessly slipped out of their room and quietly opened their sister’s door.
“Kay-Kay? You ready? You got your spare clothes right?” Kenny fussed over their sister
she also had a backpack over her shoulder, though this one wasn’t as old looking and it had a flower pattern printed on it.
Kenny had brought it for her with the money they made by doing odd jobs here and there when they had the time.
“Yes I packed clothes and a tooth brush and everything else! I'm gonna be fine Ken” Karen huffed with a smile on her face.
“You sure it’s fine with Mrs. And Mr. Tucker that you stay with them so long? I could always stay here I won’t mind..” Kenny said as they fixed one of Karen’s pigtails.
“Nuh-huh! I know how sad you would be if you had to stay the whole summer here without your friends! Also Trish’s mommy and daddy like me because I’m the only one who really comes over to play with her, they won’t mind me staying for a while” Karen said pouting at her older siblings selflessness.
“Ah okay, let’s go then” Kenny relented
Karen chatted the whole way to the Tucker’s house as Kenny listened. they never were the talkative type anyway.
Kenny pushed the doorbell ignoring the small doubt that was lingering in their mind. They didn’t like trusting adults, specially when it came to his sister, but he knew the Tucker’s pretty well since Tricia and Karen often had play dates which he often used as a excuse to get away from his parents.
The door swung open revealing Tricia’s older brother; Craig Tucker.
Despite their and Craig’s friend group’s…disagreements, Kenny quite liked Craig. They and him often ended up hanging out as their sisters played.
That’s how their odd semi-friendship actually began, Kenny had been awkwardly standing in the living room after Karen and Tricia had disappeared upstairs. The Peruvian boy had walked to the blonde and asked if they wanted to watch red racer. they never really hang out outside of their babysitting duties but it that was fin with them
“Hi.” Craig lisped in his ever monotone voice even if it was now a little slurred by the newly added braces.
“Hey man” Kenny greeted their voice muffled by their parka
“Get the fuck out of the way-“ a voice was heard calling as Craig got pushed aside rather violently as his little sister Tricia Tucker came to view.
Kenny honestly had no idea why Karen and Tricia were friends, from what they gathered Tricia didn’t really have many friends because of her short temper, yet Karen seemed to love the girl even when she was cursing and throwing punches. And it seemed like Tricia also appreciated Karen’s kindness towards her.
“Jesus christ..” Craig muttered recovering by being manhandled by a 8 year old.
“Ok so- I got a new webkin. it’s like, super rare and it’s a pink lion and it’s tail is like a heart- it’s so cute you gotta see it cmon” Tricia rambled ignoring her brother as she took Karen’s hand to drag the girl along with her.
“Well, see you at the start of school. I really don’t get why you even want to spend 2 months in the same tent as Cartman.” Craig said pulling the flaps of his hat.
“Hopefully I won’t have to sleep in the tent” Kenny shrugged giving Craig a fist bump which the other returned.
“Don't get run over!” The blonde shouted after turning to jog away.
When Kenny arrived at the bus stop the bus was already there, the bus driver was an old looking man with a mustache..and seemingly a hook for a hand..? The whole guy was giving Kenny the creeps..
Eh, as long as they don't end up dead in a ditch with a hook through their eye socket Kenny isn’t going to say anything.
As Kenny sneaked to the back door of the bus if the old man decided to be a bitch about who entered the bus without a camp flyer.
The man glanced at the blonde as they settled into one of the back seats but didn’t say anything..though the hairs on Kenny’s neck stood up as the other stared right through their soul (wait, did he even HAVE a soul?)
Kenny pulled out their PSP, they were about 10minutes early since they wanted to surprise their friends since they all thought their family didn’t have enough money to afford summer camp..which was true, but Kenny isn’t the type to give up easily.
Which basically just meant he was sneaking into camp.
After a while and a new high score in heaven vs hell Kenny heard the familiar sound of arguing outside as their friends made their entrance loudly.
“That’s not how it fucking works you moron- you- that’s a fucking felony!” the voice of Kyle Broflovski was heard complaining
“Has that stopped me ever before asshole?” Cartman’s voice called as Kenny’s friends climbed into the bus
”touché.” Kyle mumbled still frowning
“Will you two stop with this argument- we all unfortunately know Cartman could get whatever the fuck he wanted if he puts his mind to it.” Stan sighed as they all seated a few seats away from Kenny.
Despite Stan’s comment the two continued to bicker about the legal system, Kenny often wondered why the two haven’t succeeded in killing each other already, if not intentionally than just out of pure rage.
“What food did Cartman bring?” The blonde said as they climbed over the few seats between them flopping themselves next to Eric scaring the living hell out of the boy who let out a honestly pretty girly scream.
"Wait- Kenny??!" Stan screeched in shock, the look on his face made the blonde giggle.
"I thought you didn't have enough money for camp" Kyle noted stuffing a few strands of hair back into his Ushanka which had gotten misplaced as the boy had jumped in surprise.
Kenny only gave the red head a big grin at that.
"holy shit Kinny you snuck in!" Cartman was the first to get it letting out a laugh and throwing his arm over Kenny's shoulder.
"dude really??" Stan asked
the blonde nodded before stealing the bag of Takis from where they were laying on Cartman's lap.
"ey!" Cartman shouted trying to reach for the chips but Kenny skillfully dodged the boy's efforts as they opened the bag showing a handful in his mouth.
Eric only huffed annoyed but didn't make another effort to get the food back. as evil he was, he often gave Kenny his left overs or let the blonde steal his food, the boy seemed to have a certain soft spot for Kenny. not that Kenny minded, the boy could be pretty fun to be around when he wasn't planning world domination if you asked them.
"well at least I wont have to watch Stan and Kyle makeout all summer." Cartman muttered.
"Will you stop with the gay jokes already?" Stan groaned as Kyle simply just stared daggers into Eric.
this was going to be interesting.. Kenny thought as they watched their friends bicker.
