A/N: Hey, dudes! If you celebrate Christmas then how was it? If not, how was your holiday? Mines was great and I hope everybody had a great day as well. I guess now that Christmas is over, I can get some more FanFiction out the way? Everybody cool with that? Cool. Also, I had recently gotten a review from a guest reviewer by the name of That One Person asking me to add in some Stolovan and Bendy and I wanted to answer it. I'm thinking about adding in some Stolovan (minor Stolovan though since I have a whole Stolovan FanFic already planned out), but I'll have try and work in Bendy, you'll just have wait and find out lol. As usual guys, thank you for the reviews and I'll see you at the end of the chapter.

ENJOY!

Chapter Eight

State Fair Prt. I

Craig Tucker

"Alright, assholes, I need a final count before Saturday." Craig looked up from his phone as Cartman walked over to their usual lunch table, his phone at the ready. Kyle looked up from his numerous textbooks and homework, but then he went back to his homework.

"What are you talking about fatass?" Marsh asked him. It's been over two weeks since Wendy broke up for Marsh and they haven't reconciled. Maybe it was for the best, but Craig noticed that Marsh wasn't himself since. Normally, Craig wouldn't care, but since that asshole was the quarterback of the football team he was forced to be in, he might as well care. And they lost last week, which wasn't good news for Craig because Thomas punched him in the stomach again. He had to stay in bed all weekend and he missed school that Monday.

"Did you actually fucking forget? The State Fair is this weekend and my Mom's fucking driving," Cartman said.

"Token's taking Craig, Tweek, Kevin, and I," Clyde spoke up. Craig looked at Clyde, wasn't he dating Bebe still?

"Why aren't you going with Bebe?" Kenny asked him.

"Bebe and I are on a break…it might be permanent," Clyde said. "I don't really mind though…I think she has a crush on—"

"Dude," Kyle said before motioning towards Marsh, who was drinking out the same water bottle he's been drinking out of since Wendy broke up with him. Craig has never noticed him refilling that water bottle and that meant Craig knew it wasn't water.

"Never mind," Clyde said before he went back to eating his tacos.

"I-I-I don't want to go," Tweek nervously spoke up. "I-I-I hate fairs, their too unsanitary for me."

Wait…what, Craig thought.

"Dude, we made a deal," Craig said looking over at Tweek. "And I kept up with my end by helping you out in your Dad's shot."

"Aww are the boyfriends fighting?" Cartman asked in a mocking voice. It took every ounce of power in Craig to not reached over the table and punch Cartman. He was still in fucking counseling and unlike Mackey, this new person actually knew what she was doing. Which Craig didn't like. Oh well, there's always football practice this afternoon and Cartman played defense. Craig would have his revenge then. Until then, a middle finger would have to suffice.

"Why is your Mom offering anyway?" Kyle asked.

"I thought Jews didn't refuse free services seeing to how cheap they are."

Craig rolled his eyes, he knew what was next. "Don't belittle my people, fatass!"

"Then don't ask stupid questions, Jew." Craig grabbed Tweek by his arm and the two left the now common feud, dumping their lunch-trays out as they walked out the lunch table. Once they were out the cafeteria and in the hallway, Craig watched as Tweek opened his Tweek Bros. container and started drinking out of it.

"Why don't you want to go to the State Fair?" Craig asked him as they stopped at his locker. He needed his bag for his next class, though he felt like skipping.

"I-I-I told you," Tweek said. "NGH, their unsanitary to me. I-I-I hate fairs dude."

"I don't want to go unless you're going, we can walk around if that's what you want," Craig said as he grabbed his backpack out of his locker. "We don't have to get on any rides if that's the case."

"NGH! O-O-OK," Tweek said. Craig patted his blonde hair as a thank you and the two walked to class.


Time: 4:35 P.M.

"Why haven't you told him yet?" For some reason, Clyde followed Craig home after football practice and now the two were in his room, watching Red Racer. Clyde was playing with Stripe while Craig attempted at some of his US History homework. He would have gotten more done if Clyde hadn't followed him home. Ruby was over Karen McCormick's house and his parents were still working. Craig had no idea why Clyde always came to him with relationship problems, he couldn't even figure out his own shit.

"Because its Kevin, he wouldn't notice me unless I dressed up as a Stormtrooper or Darth Vader," Clyde said as he continued to pet Stripe. "Can I have one of Stripe's carrots?"

"No, you can't eat my pet's food," Craig said rolling his eyes. "Don't you think that he might need it to eat later."

"I'm hungry," Clyde said.

"Then go downstairs," Craig said matter-of-factly.

"I need to talk to you about Kevin, first."

"I don't want to hear about Kevin. I don't know why you told me that you had a crush on him in the first place, I'm not a real relationship person. If you like Kevin, then tell him."

"You want me to go over there and talk to Kevin Stoley and tell him that I like him and I've liked him for the past six months," Clyde said.

"Yes."

"Then do the same with Tweek," Clyde said. Craig turned around from his desk chair, glaring at Clyde. Clyde gave a sheepish smile as he placed Stripe back in his cage. "You like Tweek and you've liked him for years. Do you think Cartman says that shit just for fun?"

"Tweek and I are friends, that's all."

"It hasn't been that way for the past few years. I honestly want to know how you hide it so well, I can't admit my feelings for Kevin. Not now, anyway."

"I'm not hiding my feelings for Tweek, we're just close friends," Craig said.

"Not the way Token and I see it."

"What do you and Token see?"

"You and Tweek are really close. It took you at least six months to warm up to us, but you warmed up to Tweek automatically," Clyde said. "At least I know I like Kevin, I think your denying it."

"I'm not denying anything."

"So you like Tweek?"

"No, we're just friends."

"Liar."

"I'm not lying."

"Then admit it."

"Fine, I like him."

"Was that so hard?"

"You can't tell a fucking soul, especially not Cartman."

"Dude, why would I tell Cartman anything when he might rag on me for liking 'the Star Wars geek'," Clyde said as he stood up. "Now if you don't mind, I'm going to raid your fridge."

"We can't keep feeding you, Clyde. You're going have to start bringing your food if we run out again," Craig called out as he walked out the room. Shit…he can never look at Tweek the same way again.
