"Time to sleep, boys, behave weel, okay?" Mr. Tucker said at the door, closing it and going to his own room. The two boys were already on their pajamas, Tweek putting together his sleeping bag and Craig playing with Stripe in the bed.

"Well Stripe, time to sleep. You're the kid, so you shouldn't stay awake until late." He putted the guinea pig in his cage, patting the lace next to him. "You can stop putting this thing on the floor babe. Come here."

"W-WHat?! But Craig, your dad said no! A-And oh God, I'm not ready for... for... ahhhhh." The blonde's face was red mess.

"For what?" Craig raised an eyebrown. "We're 9-years old dude, just because my dad is an idiot doesn't mean that we'll do something dirty." Tweek stopped for a while, after taking the pillow and the blankets and climbing the bed. "See, I'm not attacking you or some shit like that. And if you kick me when you sleep I'll just go to the sleeping bag."

"Is not like I sleep too much or anything." The blonde timidly layed down, covering himself and facing his boyfriend.

"But let's pretend that we're doing that so nobody bothers us, okay?" Craig reached the light switch, making the room dark aside from the glowing stars oh the ceilling. The couple just stared at each other for a while, getting used to the dark and feeling each other's presence, until Tweek reaching for Craig's hand and opening his mouth slowly, as he was choosing the right words to start.

"Can I ask you something?" He whispered carefully, trying to not wake up anyone.

"Anything you want, babe."

"When did you realized that you were... w-well... I can't!" The spazz muffled his own face with the pillow.

"C'mon baby, ask me. Is okay." Craig carefully replaced the object with his hands, cupping the soft cheeks and looking directly to those beautiful eyes. Tweek took a deep breath and closed his eyes before starting over.

"When did you realize that you were liking me?"

"Oh that." Craig finally understood what was wrong with the question. They never really talked about the subject, they just started dating and the other things came naturally. "It's hard to tell you exactly when, but I'll try... Maybe when you came to see me after we "broke up", I think that's accurate. I felt really sad when I rejected you, because I was really wanting to say yes, but if I did it would let you thinking that I was only doing it to make this crazy fucking town happy." His hands were moving slowly until they were pulling the other boy even closer to him. "Remember what I said to you, that I couldn't do things just to please everyone? That I had to be myself? When we got together that was my decision. And I had to say..." Craig's voice were almost inaudible. "I don't regret it for a single moment, honey."

"Craig..." Tweek stopped for a second before crushing his boyfriend in a hug, burying his face into his neck and almost climbing him. "Thank you so much." His voice was muffled and messy, echoing in the quiet room.

"You don't need to say thank you for being loved, crazy boy." Craig caressed his hair. "But what about you, huh? I'm pretty straight-forward in what I want, but you're harder to read."

"mMchdgsh."

"Take your face from there, you're going to end up leaving marks at my neck."

"After the things you said about me being able to do more. As I said after that, it was very special for me. I tried to deny my feelings because it was so painful liking you and thinking that you'd never give me a chance, and feelings drive you crazy man! They don't know mercy! With all this mess I don't even know how we are together right now." Tweek stared at the gentle blue eyes, gathering all his strenght and kissing Craig's cheek. "But, even though I'm feeling embarassed and nervous right now I also don't regret anything, not even for a second."

"Goddamit, how can you be so beautiful when you smile? Is too much for me, do you know that?" Craig pinched one of his cheeks.

"S-SOrry!"

"Don't be. Let's just hug and at least try to get some sleep ok, babe? I think it would be good for you."

"That's the other thing that surprised me a lot." Tweek stated, driving his attention to the ceilling's stars. "I never saw you as a clingy type of person."

"Neither I did. I guess that's just the effect that you have on me.

"So is my fault?!"

"C'mon, is not a bad thing. Is one of the love languages, if I'm not wrong." Craig held his hand, just like they always did in school, walking around the city, having dates or basically almost every second. People even joked about that, saying that the universe maybe would be over if they ever let go of each other.

"Good. Craig?"

"Hm?"

"I'm feeling sleepy."

"I'm very flattered." The dark-haired boy smiled gently, placing a kiss at the blonde's hand and holding it again, feeling his own eyes getting heavier. "So rest okay? If anything happens don't think twice in waking me up."

"Good night, Craig."

"Good night, babe."

And, just like that, they feel asleep, wishing that there was plenty nights like this one on their futures, where they could just hands and put the worries away. Nights where saying I love you was the same thing as just being there to each other.
