Tweek's POV:
Craig and I are walking away from the school entrance. Clyde and Token went their own way a few minutes ago.
"Do you live far from here?" Craig asks.
"N-no. I usually walk because my parents say I can't be t-trusted with a c-car." I say. I can see the grey clouds gathering above us, as the wind blows them at a rapid speed.
"Oh. I usually drive." He tilts his head back, looking up at the sky, his hands deep in his pockets. "Looks like it's gonna rain." He pauses. A few drops hit my face and his. "Want a lift?"
W-well.." The clouds continue gathering and bigger drops are falling.
"Come on." He waves towards his car. "Before you get soaked."
There is a wall of rain in front of me now and it's closing in fast. I silently nod and run towards his car, but I don't make it in time and the rain hits me, as well as Craig. He opens his car door and we both jump in and slam the doors. I'm all soaked and so is he. He looks at me and smiles. Then he throws a towel my way.
"Here. Dry yourself off."
"T-thanks.." I dry my hair and clothes and glance at him. He didn't have his chullo on when the rain started so his hair is wet too along with his clothes, which stuck to his skin, outlining the firm structure of his body.
"You're hair is wet too." I say giggling as a drop falls from a strand of hair and onto his nose and hand him the towel.
"Dry it for me." He says, smiling.
Wh-what?" I say, slightly surprised.
"Can you dry my hair for me, please?" He asks, with playful puppy dog eyes, which I simply can't resist.
"O-okay.." I say uncertainly and start to dry his raven locks. They're soft to the touch and, of course, soggy. I slowly run my hand through them followed by the towel. His hair glistens a bit, then I ruffle it and using the corner of the towel wipe the drop that landed on his nose.
"What 'bout my shirt?" His lips curl into a smile. I throw the towel in his face, scoffing. I would have taken up the offer if I didn't know better.
"Do it y-yourself." I laugh.
"I'm just playin'." He says, smiling and starting the car. "Seatbelt?"
"Oh y-yeah".
After asking me for a few directions we end up at my house. The rain finished by now, only some drops falling off rooftops and likewise structures, as the lonely sun beams pierce through the blanket of grey.
"W-well thanks, Craig. See y-you tomorrow?" I say, opening the car door and getting out.
"Yeah, see ya." He says and waves as I shut the door, but he doesn't drive off. He waits for me to walk up to my door, so I do. But before I reach it, it opens. Seems like my mum was spying on me.
"Hi, Tweek!" She greets. "Is that your boyfriend?" She asks, looking behind me and waving at Craig.
"W-what?! N-no!" I protest, blushing. I quickly look back and see Craig laughing. Seems like he can hear us. I push past my mum, into the house and run upstairs to my room. She's so embarrassing!
The next day...
Tweek's POV:
"She says we should spend more time together. She's so annoying!" Clyde snaps me out of my thoughts. His arms are crossed and he's pouting.
"W-who?" I ask without thinking.
"Clyde's girlfriend." Craig replies.
"Ooh.." I say, looking down. The subject doesn't really interest me since one, I've never had a girlfriend, and two, well, I'm gay. But they can't know that so I choose not to take part for the rest of the conversation. But Clyde thinks otherwise.
"What's with the long face?" He asks me. Oh god, now the subject switched to me. There's no way I can get out of this, I hate attention.
"Having trouble with the girls?" Craig mocks me, giving me a light shoulder bump.
"I-I..E-err..U-umm." I stutter. What can I say? A blush slowly spreads down my cheeks, as I look away.
"Oooooh, do you fancy someone?" Clyde coos, supporting himself with his arms on the table and leaning forward.
"Gah! N-no!" I shake my head frantically, waving my hands in front of me.
"Tweek, I can read you like a book." Craig laughs, shaking his head. What's that meant to mean? "I know you're lying. Come on, who is it?" He props his elbows onto the table and rests his head in his palms.
"Yeah, who's the lucky girl?" Clyde intrigues.
"Its n-not a.." The words slip out of my mouth and my hand quickly slaps over my mouth, stopping it from saying anything else. Oh god, what did I just do?
"It's not a...girl?" Token finally joins the conversation, which must mean it just got serious. Oh god. His face is emotionless and as I look at Clyde and Craig I can see they've moved closer, they're eyes drilling me, with questioning expressions on their faces, expecting an answer.
"I-I. U-uh..Gah! Too much pressure!" I start to stutter a lot and my hands are curling up on my chest. I then take a big gulp of my coffee but it doesn't help.
Craig faces me. "Tweek, tell me the truth. Are you gay?"
I start hyper ventilating.
"Tweek, calm down!" Craig exclaims, his face is worried. He puts his hand on my shoulders.
I think back to my therapy.
"One..two..three.."I count to myself, breathing in and out. After a few moments I regain my normal rhythm of breathing. "I-I'm calm now.."
"Okay.." Craig answers. "Can you please tell me the truth. Are you gay?" He let's go of my shoulders, resting his hands in his lap.
I close my eyes and think, slouching. So what if they tell? It's not like I have friends. Cartman used to bully me anyway so it doesn't matter. But what if they leave me?! Well I don't have a choice, I have to tell them. I open my eyes and look straight at Craig. My face is serious.
"Yes." I say in a steady voice, but my seriousness quickly fades away when I see disbelief on their faces. There is an uneasy silence for a few minutes, before Clyde breaks the ice with his optimism.
"Awwwww, that's so cute! How long have you been gay?" He leans forward and looks at me with 2 giant, hazel orbs full of curiousness.
"U-um, about f-five...y-years?" I say, scratching the back of my head slightly blushing and looking down.
I look at Craig and see him smiling. "Did you kiss me on purpose then?" He elbows me lightly, laughing.
"Wait, y-you mean you don't think I'm some kind of disgusting weirdo?" I look up at him, my eyes are full of hope.
"No, of course not!" He shakes his head and then throws his arm around my neck. "Why would I? I'm not homophobic. Just don't rape me, please." He laughs along with Clyde. I let out a long sigh, when I notice Token is deep in thought. That's when he pipes up.
"Wait.. So then who's your crush?" He looks up from the table to my face, questioning. Oh god, I thought this was over. Well I'm definitely not telling them this.
"I c-can't tell you that." I reply, with a blank expression.
"Ooh, so you admit you like someone!" Clyde exclaims, giving me a light punch on my arm. Ah, crap.
I facepalm. "Well, I s-suppose there's no point d-denying it." I shrug my shoulders, smiling at the table. I'm thinking about him, even though he's right next to me.
"Hey, do you parents know you're gay? Since they asked if I was your boyfriend yesterday." Craig snickers covering his mouth.
"N-not so loud! Only y-you three know about me being you know." I exclaim, my cheeks slightly reddened. " I don't want to get in trouble!"
"What do you mean? You can't be in trouble for being gay." Clyde laughs, when he notices me glaring. "Right, right sorry."
"N-no I mean, like you know, Cartman.." I try to explain.
"If he does anything to you, tell me and I'll deal with him." Craig expression suddenly goes serious and determined.
I look up at him, my mouth forming a small "o"."T-thanks." I say, surprised.
Craig's POV:
Insomnia. Again.
I suppose I'll just review todays events again.
Woow, today sure was interesting. I found out that Tweek is gay. I was really surprised but I mean I don't really mind. Except I can't help but think that he kind of wanted that kiss accident to happen...
I mean he admitted he has a crush on someone and I really want to know. Who could it be...
Who could it be?! D: oh of course its yew Craigy-boy, you silly turtle. If Tweek didn't have a crush on you, I think I would have you all to myself :b.
Review guys and thanks to those who have!
