Chapter One: Kindergarten
"Mommy please, c-c-can I stay h-home, AUGH?" A small, skinny blonde six year old cried loudly, clutching his mother's skirt. Mrs. Tweak smiled and patted his head of crazy blonde hair. She looked around at the other mother's who seemed to be going through the same ordeal. Mrs. Scotch's son was sitting on the ground and sobbing, the Marsh's boy was busy kicking a brick wall and little Kyle Brofolovski was standing next to him looking rather pissed. The first day of kindergarten was not going to be a fun one for whoever got stuck with this group.
The only boy who wasn't throwing a fit was the Tucker's son, Craig. He stood with his back against a wall, looking down so all you saw was the top of a blue aviator hat and jet black bangs. "Now Tweek," Mrs. Tweak said, kneeling down to be on eye level with her son, "Why don't you go stand with your friend Craig, hmm?" Tweek blinked, fresh tears running down his cheeks.
Craig, he'd had a few play dates at the park with him before. Craig seemed nice enough. "Okay Mommy," Tweek said, kissing her quickly before walking towards Craig. He didn't look up even when Tweek stood next to him, twitching violently. Tweek started to get nervous when the other didn't move, let alone greet him. "Uh, AUGH, um.. hi, C-Craig," He said, nervously pulling on his shirt.
Craig looked up dully, boredom in his dark blue eyes. "Hey Tweek," He said, moving his head back to sit on the wall. Tweek smiled slightly, which caused Craig to smile a bit as well. They stood watching the other kids come in. Kenny was sitting and the ground next to Butters trying to calm his with promises of visits to Bennigans. Cartman sat on a bench eating cookies, Wendy and BeBe giggled about something stupid and Clyde was still crying.
"Alright kids get in," A woman with curled blonde hair said sweetly, opening the door to the classroom. Tweek twitched, following Craig into the room. It smelled of flowers and glitter glue, the desks were decorated and had name tags. Next to Tweek's name was Cartman's.
"Oh J-Jesus no! I c-can't sit next to him! Ahh I'm going to die!" Tweek yelled, clawing at his hair and sinking to the floor. Craig glared at the fat boy in question, tugging Tweek up by his arm and sitting in the desk next to him. The other six year olds stared in awe at Craig's act of defiance.
"Craig, that's Cartman's seat, yours is over there," The teacher said, giving him a pointed look. Craig didn't move a muscle and flipped her off. The class gasped. "Young man!" She cried, putting her hands on her hips. Craig shrugged. The woman said nothing more and commanded Cartman to sit in Craig's seat. He'd won this battle.
"Th-Thanks, Craig," Tweek mumbled, his face flushed in embarrassment. Craig smirked.
"Don't worry Tweek, I'm here for you."
