The striped ball of fluff was held out to Tweek, causing him to take a step back.
"Dude! What if I'm allergic or something?"
Craig rolled his eyes and put Stripes, his guinea pig, back in his cage.
The blonde stared through the glass for a minute with wide eyes. He watched Stripes take a carrot into his tiny paws and nibble on it. The boy couldn't help but smile, and Craig noticed.
It was the little things about Tweek that Craig noticed. The way his hazel eyes lit up whenever he talked of defeating the underwear gnomes. His twitch, the coffee on his breath. He loved it all.
Craig wrapped his arms around Tweek's waist from behind. It made him jump.
In almost the same way Stripes had nibbled the carrot, Craig nibbled on Tweek's ear.
