Butters was done. He's had enough. Eric was constantly being an asshole to him and he just took it. He just took it!

When he first talked to Kenny about it, he felt awful. How he could he be pushed around and pitied like that? He didn't even do anything about it! He didn't even think about it!

Kenny felling him all the awful things he'd just been accepting is horrible. He felt worse that Kenny had to tell him about everything too.

Kenny telling him he deserved better and he shouldn't just allow Eric to walk all over him.

Butters sat on the couch and called Eric. The more he thought about it, the angrier he got.

"What the fuck do you want-"

"Shut the fuck up," Butters finds himself saying before he can even think about it.

"What are-"

"No! Shut up!" Butters nearly shrieks, "You've walked all over me. Every time you want anything you just yell at me to do it. You cheat on me, you're constantly yelling at me- you're always mad!"

The line is silent for a moment. "What are you talking about?"

"Everything you've done to me! You treat me like trash! And it's all because you're a spoiled, no good piece of shit!" Butters shouts, "You're awful! You're absolutely awful. My life would be so much better without you-"

"You don't mean that-"

"Wrong!" Butters shouts, "We're done! I'm done. I don't care if you want to be done- I am. I'm done. I'm done with you."

Butters hangs up before the tears welling in his eyes overflow. He needs someone right now.

He needs Kenny.

He knows he's overreacting. He feels like he's overreacting. Eric isn't that bad. Wasn't that bad. He thinks he should apologize, but he needs someone to help him before he does anything else irrational.

He needs Kenny to help him. He needs Kenny to tell him what to do.

Butters leaves his house and heads to Kenny's house immediately. He almost can't stand it. The itching nerve to call Eric and apologize and tell him he was wrong and stupid and didn't mean anything he said- he could hear Eric laughing at him apologizing already.

Butters knocks on the decrepit door and grinds his knuckles together nervously. Luckily, Kenny answers the door and not his parents or one of his siblings. Unluckily, Butters is in tears seeing Kenny. He's half happy to see Kenny, so overwhelming relieved and half stressed out because of his call with Eric.

Then, Kenny's hugging him before he can even say anything. Butters weeps more, gripping Kenny's parka as Kenny runs circles into his back in attempt to soothe him.

"Leo, what's wrong? Is it Eric again?" Kenny holds Butters tighter, "if he didn't anything I'll-"

"I broke up with him," Butters whispers hoarsely, tears still streaming down his face.

"You... broke up with him?" It's silent for a moment, Butters doesn't look up from Kenny's chest and Kenny doesn't let him go.

Finally, Butters nods. "Kenny?"

"Yeah, Leo?"

"Can I stay with you tonight? I don't want to be alone and..." Butters sniffles, "And I really like you." Butters' voice wobbles toward the end of his admission. Kenny smiles softly down at Butters- his sweet, innocent, cute Butters.

"Of course you can stay with me- any time, anything you need- I'll be there. Always."
