TWEEKS P.O.V
"I love you." Craig told me for the hundredth time that day as he kissed my eyelids. I giggled and said "I love you too." People always gave us weird looks in the hallways, but I don't care. I knew we were outcasts, but all we needed was each other. I love him, and he loves me so who cares about what they think? We sat down at the cafeteria table and I pulled out my sand which and started eating it. "Why don't you ever eat anything?" I ask him when he sits back just watching me eat my sand which. "I don't really eat much." He said and smiled at me. I smiled back and offered him my pudding cup, but he declined.
"Wanna come over?" I asked him, throwing away my garbage. "I always do, don't I?" I smiled and nodded. We made our way out of the school building and took the bus to my house, and of course people were giving us really strange looks. Oh well. We made our way into my house and I called out "Mom! Dad! I'm home, and Craig's over!" We walked into the living room when there was no reply, and they were sitting on the sofa having what seemed to be serious conversation. "What's going on?" I asked them. They looked at me and smiled "Oh nothing!" replied my mother, "were just talking. How was your day hon?" I just shrugged it off and said "It was pretty boring. I just hung out with Craig the whole day." I said motioning to him. My parents smile fell and they said "Oh… that's… very nice. Why don't you take… Craig up to your room." My dad said, as if Craig's name was venom in his mouth. I frowned but we went upstairs anyways.
I sat down onto my bed and sighed. "I don't like your parents." Craig spoke up as he sat next to me. He tells me this all the time, he says there irresponsible and don't take care of me the way I should be taken care of. That conversation usually ends when I would say 'Who cares, I have you looking out for me.' I took his hand in mine and said "I know. I don't think they like you either, they won't even look at you, but I don't care." He smiled at me and said "I love you.' I kissed his cheek and said "I love you too." He looked me in the eye and said "I need to ask you something, and I need you to be 100% honest with me. Okay?" I nodded and he continued. "No matter what anybody ever tells you or says, I need to know that you will always love me, and you will always want me to stay with you. Can you do that?" he finished, grabbing my hands. I nodded and said "I swear. I always will." He smiled and said "Good."
That night before I went to sleep, Craig sat up and said "They're liars. You know that right?" I was confused. "Liars? What did they lie about?" he shook his head and hugged me. "They're going to fill your head with lies and you can't believe them. Okay?" I nodded, I didn't know what he was talking about, but I trusted him. The next morning, my mom came into my room and said "Hi honey, we're gonna go run some errands? Do you want to come?" she had a hopeful look on her face and Craig shook his head. I said "No thanks, I'll just stay here with Craig." She looked crestfallen and said "Okay." Before leaving. I looked at him quizzically and he said "I don't wanna go." I nodded and we watched movies and cuddled.
My parents came back and my mom was sobbing. I ran up to her and asked "What's wrong? Are you okay?" she just hugged me, and asked me to go somewhere with her. "W-what about Craig?" she held me tighter and said "He can come to. Please." I nodded and Craig looked confused. We got in the car and I sat in the back with Craig. We drove up to a building that I had never seen before, and my mother escorted us in. We went into the main room and I realized it was hospital. "What are we doing here, I hate hospitals!" she hugged me and said "You're gonna stay here for a while and they're gonna take care of you." I pushed her and screamed "No!" this wasn't fair! She was trying to get rid of me! I hid behind Craig and started crying. "Craig help me!" I screamed grabbing onto his shirt. "Craig is dead Tweek!" my mother screamed as doctors started walking towards me.
"W-what..? Dead?" I looked at him and he looked pissed and confused. "What are you talking about he's right here! Say something!" he shook his head and held my hand. My mother kneeled besides me and said "Remember sweetie? In 8th grade Craig and his family got into a car crash. He was the only one unable to survive it." I looked at him and he said "They're lying. I told you they would lie. They just don't want us together Tweek don't fall for it!" I looked back at my mother and pushed her hard and she fell. "You're a liar! He's right there!" I screamed motioning to him. The doctors restrained me and stuck a needle in my arm. I screamed "Craig! Don't leave! Please!" As everything started blacking out.
"Ill never leave you."
