Nora rested her head on Craig's chest, her body felt deliciously soar and warm and curled even further into his naked body. Craig had his arms behind his head and was staring at the ceiling, his eyes tracing the intricate designs on the panels. He wished he could smoke, Nora never allowed Craig to smoke in the house or in this case, hotel room.
"Darling?"
"Hmm?"
"What we just did... That was wonderful... These past few days have been nothing but bliss for me... Thank you, Craig."
"You're welcome." Nora sat up, turning to face her new husband. Her long hair was mussed prettily and her eyes glittered with pure adoration and what appeared to be tears. Craig's eyebrow rose slightly in question.
"Nora, are you crying?" Nora sniffled and wiped her eyes.
"Yeah... Just a little bit.. I'm just so happy Craig. I'm the happiest woman alive. I love you so much." Craig sat up on his elbows, leaning on his right arm and pushing aside his muss of black hair.
"Nora, you need to take a breath... I mean I dunno.." Nora sighed and pushed her hair behind her ear. All trace of prettiness vanished and she looked suddenly looked plain as usual.
"Craig, would it kill you to maybe express some emotion for once?" Craig rolled his eyes and rested his forehead on her soft shoulder. Tweek was never this whiny about commitment...
"I'm sorry honey... I love you too". His voice was so plain, so dull, that Nora heard it as genuine. Her hand rose and gently massaged his scalp. Craig sighed in relief and leaned backwards into his pillow, Nora followed and the young couple spooned. He could smell the cherry shampoo on her locks, but it was no comparison to the haunting scent of coffee beans and vanilla extract that lingered in his nostrils and his past youth...
It was about four and a half months after the wedding, and Craig was watching Nora gently pat her growing stomach. Shortly after their honeymoon she had announced that she was with child and ever since then, good Lord Nora wouldn't shut up. Craig hadn't seen or spoken to Tweek for almost half a year... Until there was a ring at his doorbell. Rising from his place on the sofa he strode quickly to the front door and opened it.
Craig was unable to breathe as the fairy like blonde with a wild nest of blonde hair looked up at him with curious forest green eyes.
"Hey Craig, sorry to drop in unannounced... But I kinda just managed to buy my freedom... And I need a place to stay." Craig, nodding with a firm jaw opened the door wide enough for the blonde to slip through. Craig was just about to shut the door and lock it before yet ANOTHER body slipped through.
"Hello lover"! Said Kenny as his forever skinny arms wrapped tightly around Craig's arms and waist pulling him into a bone crushing embrace. The socially awkward Tucker went as rigid as ply wood for not only was physical contact a huge hurdle for him, but Kenny was nearly as tall as Craig and twice as skinny. His scraggly blonde hair tickled at Craig's nostrils. Not soon enough, Craig was released from McCormick's anaconda grip, he scurried over to the trembling green eyed boy and wrapped his arm around his quivering shoulder.
"Craig, who is it?" Nora's voice echoed through the hallway before she turned the corner. Her eyebrows knitted together in confusion at the two blondes in the front hall. Her hands folded protectively over her stomach.
"Darling, who are these people"?
"Nora, this is Kenny McCormick, he's Karen McCormick's elder brother, and this is-" Craig paused for a moment. Nora was aware at what had supposedly happened to Tweek, so he quickly had to think up a name. "-this is Elijah. Kenny is visiting from college and he brought his room mate along."
"Oh how nice... So I take it they're staying with us?" Craig nodded. "In that case I'll go set a few more areas for dinner then." She then excused herself from the hall and back into the dining room. Craig turned his attention to Kenny and Tweek.
"I-is that your girlfriend?" Tweek wondered after an awkward pause.
"That was Nora... My pregnant wife..."
