Previously: He wouldn't see Tweek much until lunch, despite how awesome skipping would be to spend some alone time with the blonde would be.

"What's up, ho." Cartman greeted, walking into Butters' bedroom casually. He dove down to kiss the said boy on the forehead.

Butters blushed a little, feeling those lips press to his forehead. "Hiya Eric." His arms wrapped tightly around the teen's broad shoulders. "You ready for school?"

Cartman placed his arms around the blonde firmly. "Yeah - and quit calling me Eric." Cartman growled, kissing Butters on the lips and gently snagging the others lips with his teeth. He didn't really mind, it just felt unnatural for him, seeing as he was always known as "fatass" or just Cartman.

"But I like calling you by that..." Butters whined, wilting a little, "calling you Cartman is just so informal..." A pout crossed his lips.

"It's okay babe." Cartman sighed, but then chuckled at the pout adorning Butters' face. His eyes traveled down.

"What are you wearing?" He laughed, looking at Butters' pink glittery shirt and brown, skinny jeans.

Butters shifted himself a bit on his bed. "It's my Hello Kitty shirt... You don't like it?" He wilted a bit, shoulders slumping forward. On the back of the shirt was hello kitty's face in sparking rhinestones.

Cartman held in a snort. "It's kinda... gay, Butters." Not wanting to see Butters' face fall though, he quickly added, "But extremely cute." He purred, sitting down next to Butters.

The bed creaked, but not much. He was still slightly on the chubby side, but had lost most of his weight. He checked the time on his watch.

"Ugh, we have to go now. Are you ready?" Cartman asked, lazily adjusting his poofhat.

"Well gee, I can't help that it's what I like!" Butters crossed his arms defensively. The blonde got up off the bed, "Yeah I'm ready..." He pouted, pulling on a coat.


A while later, the two walked into school, separately. Cartman knew it upset his boyfriend, but he had a reputation to think of... Butters headed straight for his first class in quite a huffy mood, still upset that he was just a secret. He sat at his desk at the front of the class and rested his head on his arms, lost in thought.

Cartman marched straight towards Craig and Tweek, a plan forming in his mind. Craig as busy switching out books and what not, keeping an eye on Tweek.

"Wanna do something after class?" He asked Tweek, ignoring the fatass approaching them.

"Nngh -" Tweek was cut off as Cartman suddenly latched onto his arm, an seemingly innocent smile on his face.

"Sorry Craig, but would you mind if I talked to Tweek for a little bit? I just wanted to go over the maths homework with him."

What maths homework? Tweek thought. But the grip on his arm tightened so he stayed silent.

He quirked his eye brow at Tweek's reply, "if you absolutely need to." He gave the blonde a kiss on the temple. "I'll see you after class." Cartman didn't let Craig get much else in before dragging Tweek down the hall to a more secluded area.

Once they were well out of ear shot, Cartman frowned a bit, "Tweek man... I have got some news to tell you." He rested an arm on the blondes shoulder, "you know Craig likes someone else right? He's only settling for you cause he can't get the one he really wants."

Tweek's eyes widened. He knew from past experience that Cartman was not to be trusted... But there was a honest tone to his voice. "W-what do you mean?" He trembled, pining to be in Craig's arms, listening to his soothing and reassuring words.

"Who?" He demanded suddenly, digging his nails into his own palms.

"Remember Red? She moved to Denver last year, her and Craig were talking. He's head over heels stupid for her." Cartman shook his head, "So don't emotionally invest yourself in someone who doesn't want you. You're a loser, Tweek."

Tweek blinked back tears. Red? He couldn't go up against Red! She was way cooler than him! And prettier...

Tweek gulped. "H-how do you know this?" He asked, ready to start sobbing at any moment.

The brunette pulled out a small hand written note. He had practiced other kid's handwriting to be able to write as Craig like he did. "Here's a love note he wrote her that I found. Do Craig a favor and don't be such a cock block."

Tweek grabbed the note, skimming the page with his eyes before salty water began to pretude from the green orbs.

"T-thanks Cartman." Tweek said shakily, running away. Where to? He didn't know. He just had to get away.

He wanted to get the thoughts of Red and Craig dating out of his head... The thought of their hands entwined... The thought of Craig making love - He slipped, and suddenly everything froze; he succumbed to the darkness as it pulled him in.


I know, Cartman's such an asshole! If you don't know why he's doing it, its because he has a grudge against Craig for interrupting him and Butters at the cinema or whatever.
