"Mom," I say, sitting across from her.

"Kyle? Is there a problem?" She asks.

"Mom. You have to promise that you won't freak out," I say.

"Of course," she says.

"I'm dating-," I start.

"That's amazing, dear. Who is she?" Mom asks.

"Um... mom-," I start.

"Oh. It's a boy? That's amazing as well," mom says.

"They are multiple people," I say.

"Do you mean that as in polyamory or are you dating multiple people without their knowledge?" Mom asks.

"No! I'd never, I haven't ever even thought about it. I mean it in a polyamorous way," I say.

"That's nice. Stan, Leo and Kenny are always welcome," mom says.

That was... less dramatic than I expected...

"How did you know?" I ask.

"Oh I've wanted that to happen for nearly five years. But you denied it for such a long time! I honestly thought you were trying to move on," mom says.

"You've wanted me to date my best friends?" I ask.

"Of course. Your father and I started as good friends. Almost everyone does. It was a matter of time," mom says.

Ike and Karen, at some point, came over to us.

"Invite them for dinner! I don't care, if I already approve, my mother and father made me bring all my boyfriends for testing. I will continue that tradition," mom says.

"But you approve. What is the reason for-?" I ask.

"I don't care," mom says.

Okay, she's being awfully cheery today. What the fuck happened with the other moms?

"Okay. I'll call them?" I ask.

I take my phone and call Stan.

"Hey dude."

"Hi Stan. So, I told my mom and she wanted you for dinner. Kenny, you and Leo, I mean," I say.

"Why? I mean, I'm not saying no."

"Something about already approving but still wanting to have you here so she can approve again? I don't know, mom is really happy today and I really don't want to bring her down from it," I say.

"Kenny, Kyle's mom wants us for dinner!" Stan yells.

I laugh.

"Sure! When?" Kenny asks.

"When is dinner?" I ask mom.

"When are they coming? Heating food again takes maybe 3-4 minutes?" Mom asks.

"Oh okay. Kenny! We gotta leave now! And for fucks sake! Put pants on, man!" Stan yells.

I laugh.

"See you soon?" Stan asks.

I nod before remembering that he can't actually see me.

"Yeah, I have to call Leo. Bye," I say.

"Love you," he says.

I end the call, calling Leo immediately after.

"Hi Ky," Leo says.

"Do you wanna come over? Like, right now? For dinner?" I ask.

"Right now right now?" Leo asks.

"Yup," I say.

"I'll be right there," Leo says.

I end the call and start helping mom put everything on the table.

"This is like, double the food we'd normally need," Ike says.

"These are going to go bad soon. That's my other reason for inviting them here," mom says.

There is a knock on the door. I open it to see Leo.

"You were really fucking fast," I say.

"I wasn't home, when you called. To be honest, I was looking to crash Token's tonight, with good luck. No way I'm home, when they come back," Leo says.

He smiles at mom.

"Hello Sheila. You're looking beautiful today," he says.

And now I figured out, why we call him Butters. Well, other than the obvious reason. Holy fuck he's smooth.

"Ah, nice to see you Leo. Is it snowing?" Mom asks.

"Yeah. Well, was an hour ago. That's, why it's melted already," Leo says.

"I might have spare clothes. They're going to be too big but better than moist, that's not a good word at all, wet. Oh my God. Well. Watery clothes," I say.

Butters chuckles at my attempt at finding a nonsexual word for wet-NO-watery clothes.

Wait. Can that be taken out of context? Watery? Is that a word for something? Oh my fucking God, it's so hard -NOPE-. Why does everything sound sexual? Oh shit, I should probably be listening.

"You know, where my room is. Take some clothes freely," I say.

Leo nods and goes to get clothes from my room.

"Well. That's so kind of you, leaving your boyfriend to go alone," Ike says, smirking at me.

"Wipe the smirk off your face, does not suit you at all," I say.

There is an another knock on the door. I open again.

"Hi," Kenny says.

He puts his shoes away before going over to hug Karen, then he high fives Ike before shaking mom's hand.

"Well, he went for it," Stan says, laughing.

"He sure did," I say.

"Is Butter coming?" Stan asks.

"Yup, he's in my room," I say.

"Cool," Stan says, smiling at me, slightly green.

"You're green. I mean, I appreciate it. Just. Do you need the bathroom?" I ask.

"I've learned to keep it in pretty well," Stan says.

Kenny pushes me a little so I'm pressing Stan against the door.

"Ups," Kenny says, chuckling.

"Bastard," I say.

"You're not leaving before you kiss. I'm stronger than both of you, I can keep you in," Kenny says.

"So you're just gonna watch?" I ask.

"I'd record, but I have nothing to record with," Kenny says.

"Really, Ken?" Stan asks.

"Kiss. Come on. Kiss for the kids," Kenny says.

"Fine," I say.

I kiss Stan, smiling a little.

"Okay okay. I said kiss, not eat each other's faces. You need kissing lessons. It's not meant to look like that," Kenny says.

"Wanna teach me then?" I ask.

"Am I getting paid?" Kenny asks.

"Depends. What do you want for it?" I ask.

"You'll see," Kenny says.

"Yes sir," I say.

Stan looks very uncomfortable with the flirting, running away from under Kenny's arm.

"When can I start lessons?" I ask.

"Right now," he says.

He kisses me.

"Okay okay. Stay off each other, will you?" Mom asks.

Kenny laughs, pulling away from me.

"Lets go," I say.
