Tweek's POV
It's 9 o'clock on the dot, and I'm hanging out with Craig's friends again. I love them so much, but I'm not sure if they like me as much as I like them. Clyde and Token definitely don't like me as much as Craig does.
It's so late and night and I'm getting really paranoid. I rarely sleep anyway, unless I'm with Craig, but for some reason my paranoia is worse at night when I'm around a group of others. It's like a perfect setting for a horror movie. Here at Clyde's house.. no one else is home except the three of us.. it terrifies me.
Suddenly, there's a knock on the door. We're only sat in the living room, so it's not hard for Clyde to get up and answer the door. I'm anxious just watching him walk across the room and answer it, looking so happy too. What if someone is there in a mask with a-
The door opens, and Craig stands in the doorway. He's holding a basket of beers and some fizzy drinks. I'm not really up for drinking. The legal drinking age here is 21 and I'm 16, so I'm not up for underage drinking. I'm sure it would probably kill me somehow. I have bad luck like that. Craig wouldn't let me drink anyway.. he's too protective.
A while goes by of us just sitting around on the couch, playing video games or just chatting to each other. To my sheer horror, there's another knock on the door. Louder this time. Clyde puts down the remote and shrugs, walking over to the door slowly.
Stan stands at the door when Clyde opens it, and Craig looks at him in shock. "Why are you here, Marsh?" He asks, his arm resting over my shaky shoulders. "Alright so.. hear me out. I know you guys aren't too keen on us but.. myself, Kyle, Eric and Kenny are having a lil party over at my place. There's alcohol.. drugs, all the fun stuff. Some chicks there too. You guys should come over!"
"Why should we?" Clyde asks, his hands on his hips. "Don't you wanna have some fun? C'mon.. one night only deal." Stan laughs, holding out his hand to Clyde. Clyde turns to us for confirmation. I sit silently, while Token nods his head and Craig simply shrugs. "Fine! We'll go." Clyde shakes Stan's hand and begins to get ready to leave.
We pack up the remotes and lock up the house, putting on our jackets beforehand. It's snowing again. Of course it's snowing. It's South Park, it always snows here so I'm not surprised.
I can't say I'm not scared about this. I hardly ever go near Kyle, Stan or Cartman and myself and Kenny used to be friends when we were younger. But I still haven't gone near him in a while. I take Craig's cold hand to try and comfort myself and he tries to warm it up by placing my hand in his pocket. He cares so much. I love him, but I don't know if he knows it. We're more.. 'friends with benefits', you could say. We aren't official yet. I wish we were.
When we arrive at Stan's house, I instantly hear the shouts of the others inside. Bebe is one of the voices, followed by Wendy and Annie. Stan opens the door and we're greeted by what looks like a professional party. There's two tables out together to create a bar table, with Kenny as the bartender. Wendy, Bebe and Annie sit at the bar drinking while Kyle flirts with Bebe, his girlfriend. All while Cartman sits alone on the couch on his phone.
Clyde gasps and throws his hands in the air as loud music blares from the speakers. "This is so cool!" He shouts, rushing over to the bar. Token walks over to the karaoke microphone and flicks through Stan's albums to find something to sing. Craig remains at my side, his hand still in mine.
"Well? What're you two waiting for? Get in here and party!" Bebe shouts to us, swinging her glass of wine around like it's not exactly fragile. Craig cautiously steps through the doorway, slowly followed by myself. Stan shuts the door behind us and the party continues.
"Ooh! You know what we should do? Spin the bottle!" Kenny suggests, and Wendy gasps. "Yes!" She shouts, swinging back in her chair. I'm automatically panicking inside. Spin the bottle? I've seen it on TV, but I've never played it myself! What if I get one of those girls? I don't like girls. I don't like anyone except Craig. But what if he isn't even playing? Would he bail me out too? I've never even kissed anyone before!
In no time, the whole group is sat on Stan's carpet in a circle. Of course, there's a bottle in the middle of the circle. I'm shaking.. I don't know if anyone's noticed though. Craig is next to me but he's not holding my hand. In fact, he's staring over at Annie and smirking at her. Is he flirting with her? Oh, goddamnit Tweek, just because he smiles at someone doesn't mean he loves them.
"I'll go first." Kenny reaches into the middle and spins the bottle, which we have placed on some wood to get it to spin faster. The bottle eventually comes to a stop on Clyde, who is sat in between Cartman and Bebe. Clyde rolls his eyes as Kenny crawls towards him and kisses him quickly before backing back into his space. "Okay! My go!" Annie smiles, spinning it once more.
To my horror, it lands on me. I don't know what to do. My friends all snicker except Craig, who turns away. Annie slides across the carpet until she's in front of me and kisses me slowly. I don't even kiss back. I don't know how! What am I even supposed to do? Her blonde, curly hair is getting somewhat tangled in mine as it covers my shoulders.
After a moment, she pulls away and pats me on the shoulders before shuffling back to her spot. I sit, blushing, in silence as others giggle. "Don't be a pussy, Tweek." Stan laughs at me. I'm not a pussy. I'm just clueless and.. I don't know what just happened, but whatever it was I wish it was Craig instead of her.
"Alright, alright. I'll go now." Craig smirks as he spins the bottle. It begins to slow down and I quiver, secretly wanting it to land on me, but not saying anything. Even if it did, I'd still be terrified. Even more terrified than when Annie kissed me. I want my first kiss with Craig to be perfect.
It lands on Kyle. Okay, I don't feel so horrible about this, because Kyle already has a loyal girlfriend and I'm sure he wouldn't cheat on her, especially for Craig. Their kiss is only very brief, so Craig is back at my side as soon as I know it.
The game goes on for a while before the others decide to call it quits. Being currently sat with Craig on the couch, I can't help but hold his hand out of instinct. I take a minute to take in my surroundings, as myself and Craig are both sat in silence.
Wendy is passed out at the bar, Annie left a while ago and Bebe just snuck upstairs with Kyle. It's only us boys left. Kenny is still behind the bar drinking, while Token is doing karaoke. Clyde is sat with Cartman and Stan on the carpet, all showing each other pictures of 'cute' girls from our school.
"Red Tucker gave me a handjob behind a store once." Kenny looks down from over the bar, clearly drunk. "That's my cousin, you dumb shit!" Craig laughs, letting go of my hand and walking over to join them. I sit by myself, wondering what I'm supposed to do. Should I go over?
"Whoops.. say, Tweek, you sure do seem like a 'ladies man', you ever smashed?" Kenny asks, making me flustered. The group starts laughing and Craig shushes them. "No, no. He's not that kinda guy." He giggles. His laugh is too cute.
"I.. I've n-never dated anyone b-before.." I stutter. Cartman starts laughing and Craig stares him down. "You've never had a girlfriend? Even the Jew upstairs can get a girlfriend! Get a grip, twitch." Eric laughs loudly, making Stan punch his arm. "Hey.. uh.. it's alright, Tweek. We'll find you a nice little lady. Say.. Annie took a liking in you.." He smirks and raises his eyebrows at me.
"Don't be stupid." Craig rolls his eyes and I smile sweetly at him. "Ohh! I get it! Tweek likes Craig!" Cartman starts laughing once more. I freeze and my expression quickly falls. "What? No, no! I-I don't like C-Craig! I swear!" I force out, shaking my head rapidly. "Mhm.." Stan winks and I fall back onto the couch and regret coming here. I was basically just publicly outed! Maybe they'll forget.. they're all drunk.
..except Craig.
