The days leading up to Saturday seemed to crawl past. Tweek was growing more and more anxious as time went on, wanting nothing more than to just marry his best friend! On Friday, a particularly slow and uneventful day, Tweek glanced up from his computer, surprised to see Stan and Wendy walk into his hotel that night. He blinked, grinning as he saw them. He jumped up, rushing around from behind the desk and tossing his arms around Wendy. She giggled into his shoulder, holding him close.
"Hey handsome!" She giggled, kissing his cheek as Tweek pulled back. He moved to hug Stan, grinning into his shoulder.
"You two made it!"
"Well of course! How could we miss the wedding of the century?" Stan teased, earning a swift punch in the arm from Tweek. He let out a laugh, leaning against the front desk as he looked between the two of them.
"How was your flight?"
"Uneventful. Too hot. I don't think I've ever been in Colorado while it's so hot." Tweek snorted, walking back behind the desk.
"Yeah, it's been brutal. I've had so many people ask me if there's anything I can do about the weather." Wendy blinked.
"You're shitting me." Tweek snorted.
"I wish I was, but alas," He typed on his computer, looking up Stan's name. "So, what made you choose my hotel?" Stan chuckled.
"It did have good reviews. Plus, we knew we'd see you since you're always working." Tweek chuckled, checking them in and handing their keys to them.
"Well, yeah we need as much money as possible! Craig's been busy working from home making some map for the lab. He usually finishes up around the time I get home."
"Well, well, well look what the cat dragged in." Stan whipped around, grinning as Eric walked in with a very cute girl on his arm.
"Shit, dude! You're here, too?!"
"I had to stay at the hotel our buddy works at!" Tweek snorted, standing up and walking around to hug Eric.
"Good to see you, handsome." Eric chuckled, hugging him tightly.
"You too," He pulled away, blushing as Millie cleared her throat. "Oh! Stan, Wendy, Tweek, this is Millie, my girlfriend." Tweek was in awe at how cute Millie was. She had a short strawberry blonde bob cut that stopped at her jaw, freckles all across his cheeks and nose, bright red lipstick and pretty green eyes that complimented her fare complexion. She stuck her hand out to each of them, a sweet smile on her face.
"It's a pleasure to finally see the faces behind the names! And congrats to you Tweek on your marriage this weekend!" Tweek smiled, taking her hand.
"Thank you for coming! And it's amazing to finally meet you." She giggled again, taking Eric's arm again. Tweek walked behind the desk to check them in as well.
"When do you get off?" Wendy asked, leaning against the counter top.
"About…an hour." He murmured as he typed on the computer, passing two keys over to Eric and Millie.
"We have to celebrate! We can chill in our rooms and come down around eight and we can all go back to your place and surprise Craig?"
"I like surprising Craig, too, ya know!" Tweek grinned as he stood, rushing around to toss his arms around Heidi. Kyle wasn't far behind, both their suitcases in tow.
"How the fuck did you all manage to show up around the same time?!" Tweek laughed, Kyle snorting.
"No clue." He said, tossing his arms around Stan and Wendy, before turning to Eric.
"Hey…hey Kyle," He looked at Millie, smiling. "This is, uh, Millie. We've been together for-"
"Dude, she's perfect for you." Eric blinked, smiling a little wider as Millie stuck her hand out.
"Pleasure!" Kyle chuckled, wrapping his arm around Heidi, who looked at Eric with happy eyes.
"She's beautiful, Eric." Millie blushed, looking at Cartman with adoring eyes.
"Your friends are so sweet to me." She giggled, Eric letting out a soft laugh.
"Yeah…my friends are pretty great."
Craig was laying on his stomach on top of a piece of wood stretched between two chairs over top his map. He had to start using the wood and chairs to lay across the page, any pressure from his hands causing the pencil to smear. He had his headphones on as he worked, not noticing the door open and the flood of people following his fiancé in. Tweek stopped, everyone stopped really. They watched him, Kyle finally speaking.
"This is what he does all day?"
"This map is covering most of the fucking floor!" Eric said, slowly walking closer to it. Tweek brushed his fingers past Craig's foot, a yelp escaping his lips. Tweek giggled as Craig looked back, his eyes widening as he tugged his headphones down around his neck.
"What the fuck?!" He grinned, pushing himself up and onto the chair, stepping off and tugging everyone into hugs.
"Surprise!" Wendy giggled, hugging him tightly. After he hugged everyone, he blinked as he saw Millie.
"Eric is this-"
"Millie? Yeah." She grinned, holding her hand out. Craig ignored it and tugged her into a hug, Millie laughing softly as she happily returned it.
"Pleasure!" She laughed, Craig grinning as he pulled away.
"Damn, you're cute as hell." He murmured, Millie blushing. Tweek came back into the room with wine glasses for everyone, passing them out before running back into the kitchen to grab the bottle of wine. Once everyone had some, they all sat down, Craig sitting down after cleaning up from working. He thanked Tweek for holding his glass, putting a cigarette in his mouth and lighting it up as he relaxed next to Tweek. They all talked amongst themselves, catching up over everything that's been happening for the past year. Craig could barely believe that everyone has been out of college for a year now. Around nine o'clock, there was a knock on the door, Tweek standing to answer after setting his wine down. He gasped as he opened the door, his parents, Craig's family, Kenny and Butters, Clyde Jimmy, Token, and Bebe all at the door. He tossed his arms around his parents as they walked in, Craig rushing over to hug Tricia first (he hasn't seen her in a while), grinning as he picked her up and heard her laugh. Everyone stood up to greet the others, hugs and kisses being passed around for a few minutes. It has been far too long since everyone has last been together and it felt so good to be reunited.
"How have you boys managed to squeeze everyone into this apartment?" Thomas asked with a laugh, Craig snorting.
"I have no clue." Tweek went into the kitchen, grabbing chairs from the kitchen table and the stools from their island, bringing them out into the living room. Craig grabbed more glasses for everyone (even Tricia), having to grab coffee mugs and regular glasses since they had no more wine glasses to distribute. He handed the glasses out to everyone while Tweek would fill them, Tricia sitting on Craig's lap after he sat down. Craig snorted, wrapping an arm around her as he sipped at his wine.
"I've missed you, dingus." She murmured, tucking her hair behind her ear. Craig kissed her shoulder, smiling.
"It's been awhile." He murmured back, seeing his sister smile. She had matured so much over the past four years, growing a few more inches as well. She lost the last of her baby fat and she was absolutely stunning. She has been on and off with Ike since the end of senior year, but they still remain friendly.
"I'm proud of you, ya know."
"Of what?"
"You. For bringing Tweek into the family. I called all my friends on Wednesday to tell them you two were finally getting married." Craig smiled around his glass, leaning back in his seat.
"I'm glad you two hit it off all those years ago." She smiled, glancing up at her soon to be brother-in-law. He was laughing as he talked with his parents and Kyle and Heidi, his eyes bright. Tricia hummed, sipping a bit at her wine.
"Me too, Craig."
The rest of the evening was filled with happy conversation and even some games to just continue enjoying their time together and celebrate the exciting day awaiting them tomorrow. Around eleven pm, Craig glanced down as his phone buzzed, the number unfamiliar to him. He excused himself, stepping out on the balcony and shutting the door behind him.
"Hello?"
"I'm surprised you answered." He tensed, clenching his jaw as he heard her voice.
"…what do you want, Molly?" He whispered, his eyes closing as he leaned against the railing.
"…you're getting married tomorrow?"
"How…how did you know?"
"I have my connections…I just…wanted to say congrats." Craig blinked his eyes open, his chest tightening. He knew she meant well, but he could still sense the venom dripping from her voice.
"Um…thanks…I-I think."
"I know you haven't seen or heard from me since I was expelled but…I just wanted to hear that sexy voice of yours one last time." Craig screwed his eyes shut, gripping his phone tight. God, it had been four years since he last saw her, and she still had power over him.
"Don't…don't talk to me like that."
"Just think how happy we would've been together! I know you like pussy, Craig."
"Maybe I don't, alright? I clearly have a preference for cock if you haven't noticed." He hissed, tears pricking his eyes. Why are you letting her get to you? This is supposed to be a good night!
"So, what, you're saying you're gay?" Craig clenched his jaw, running a hand through his hair.
"Maybe. I don't know. I don't owe you anything!" Tweek glanced up as he heard Craig's muffled voice, frowning as he saw how…uncomfortable he looked.
"We would've had such a wonderful life together, don'tcha think?" Craig swallowed hard, images of that night starting to flash through his mind. Her hand. Her lips. Her words. R. He flinched, tugging at his hair.
"N-NO. N-No we wouldn't have! Fucking, stop stalking me!" He hissed, angry tears falling.
"Craig, I love you!"
"No…no, don't fucking say that." He sobbed, his chest feeling too tight. He jumped, feeling arms wrap around him. He turned, seeing Tweek there. He let out a shaky breath, blinking as Tweek grabbed the phone.
"What are you doing?" He whispered into the phone, rubbing small circles into Craig's back.
"…you take care of him."
"You don't get to say that. You don't get to say anything about my husband okay? If you even cared about him at all, you'd get the hint to fuck off. You wouldn't have sexually assaulted him and traumatize him like this! He's the strongest person I know and you hurt him. I can never forgive anyone who hurts my Craig. You never deserved to kiss him. You took advantage of him and that's disgusting, Molly Gerwin. I hope you rot and if you ever call this number again, I will fucking beat the shit out of you again," He hung up before he could hear her talk, the sound of her voice causing Tweek to see red. He wrapped his arms tight around Craig, letting his fiancé sob into his shoulder. He rubbed his back until his body stopped shaking, placing gentle kisses to his face. "Shhh…it's okay, handsome. She isn't here." He whispered, wiping the tears off his cheeks. Craig looked at him, his eyes red.
"You…c-called me your husband." Tweek blinked, blushing a bit. He swallowed hard, smiling a bit.
"Well…you are…" Craig smiled slowly, pressing his lips to Tweek's. Even in the moonlight, Craig could see how bright Tweek's eyes were. It felt right, kissing his fiancé under the moonlight the night before they were getting hitched. They pulled away slowly, Laura and Mary smiling through the window as they watched their boys. Mary leaned against Laura a bit, humming.
"I'm so happy to welcome Craig into our family." Laura glanced over at her, chuckling softly.
"The feeling is mutual…when did you realize they were in love?" Mary laughed.
"The second he brought Craig over for the first time. They held hands as they walked up to the steps of the house." Laura smiled, watching her son interact so delicately with his soon to be husband.
"Me too…his eyes were so bright. He never looked at someone like that before…it just took him a little while to figure it out." Mary smiled, looking at Tweek. He looked so…genuinely happy.
"I think Tweek figured it out before he realized he was gay." Laura laughed softly, tucking her hair behind her ear.
"I'm just glad they finally figured it out."
They laid in bed that night, too excited to sleep. Mary and Richard were sharing an air mattress that they brought out in the living room, Thomas and Laura sharing one as well while Tricia slept on the couch. Kenny and Butters were staying with Clyde and Bebe that evening, not having the extra funds for a hotel room (they were doing well financially, but just didn't have enough extra money for a hotel room). It was around two am when Craig rolled over to face Tweek. Tweek was already looking at him, a goofy smile on his face.
"Can't sleep." Tweek whispered, Craig smiling at him.
"Me too." Tweek hummed, stroking his cheek lightly.
"How do you feel?"
"Excited. Happy. Better than earlier, if that's what you mean." Tweek chuckled, resting his hand on the side of Craig's neck.
"I'm glad. I blocked her number."
"Thank you." He breathed out, pressing their foreheads together. Tweek stayed silent, just staring up into those caring blue eyes that have encouraged him for so many years. They've cried when he's cried, they've laughed along with whatever antics they got into. They grew angry every time Tweek showed up with a new bruise from a bully. They grew happy when Tweek won his figure skating competition. They grew tired after everything with her. They grew sad each time they had to leave each other in college after visiting. Now? Now they showed the future: long days of work, coming home to each other, eventually, a small child will be in the mix, laughter, happiness, love. Tweek grinned slowly, pressing his lips lightly against Craig's. He sighed into the kiss, tugging Tweek closer. When Tweek pulled away, he buried his face into Craig's neck, sitting there for a bit before he blinked.
"Did you…write…vows?" Craig blinked, looking down.
"…no?" Tweek let out a sigh of relief.
"Jesus, I haven't either!"
"Let's do it now!"
"It's two am!"
"We're not going to sleep any time soon." Tweek snorted, rolling over to turn on his lamp. Craig stood, grabbing a notebook and sitting in the chair in the corner of their room while Tweek sat upright in bed. Every now and then a giggle would escape one of their lips, a pen would scribble profusely on the paper, and there would be gasps as ideas struck them. Around three am, they were finishing up, exhaustion starting to settle in. Craig folded up his piece of paper, tucking it under his phone so he wouldn't forget it. Tweek did the same, turning the lights off before curling up to his fiancé. Fiancé. This afternoon, they moved on to the next label, and hopefully, their last: husbands.
When Craig woke up in the morning, he immediately went to get a shower, his stomach doing flip flops as he washed himself. He sniffed the air as he walked out into the kitchen after finishing getting ready (he wore sweatpants for the time being and a tank top). He hummed as he saw his mom and Mary baking breakfast for everyone, Craig plopping at the island as he watched the two women he loved most in the world (besides Tricia). Mary looked over her shoulder as she heard the stool scrape against the floor, smiling softly.
"Good morning, my soon to be son-in-law." She cooed, placing a plate and cup of coffee in front of Craig and kissing his forehead. He blushed, grinning slowly as he sipped at his coffee, humming.
"G'morning." He mumbled, a knock on the door waking him up a bit. He stood, walking over and blinking as he saw the girls standing there, grins on their faces.
"Morning, Craig!" They all said, giggling as they pushed past and down the hall (even Millie was with them). Craig blinked, shrugging as he sat back down to eat.
"They're off to sweep him away." Laura chuckled, Craig blinking.
"What do you mean?"
"They're probably separating you two. Even though you're getting married at the courthouse, they mentioned last night that they were trying to keep up the traditions." Craig hummed, nodding slowly.
"Makes sense." Laura chewed on her bottom lip, running a hand through her son's drying hair.
"I saw you on the balcony last night…was it…?" Craig nodded slowly, his eyes closing as he leaned against his mom's chest.
"Yeah…but…I don't want to think about her today. Not on my wedding." Laura's heart fluttered at those words, hugging her son close as she kissed his hair.
"That's my strong, handsome man." Craig chuckled, pulling away after a minute to finish eating. He heard heels clicking down his hallway, a very sleepy looking Tweek with the girls.
"We're stealing your husband to be for a few hours! We'll see you at the court house!" Bebe grinned, rushing them out the door. Tricia was even with them now, a grin on her face.
"Bye Tweek!" Mary shouted, Tweek waving over his shoulder before the door shut. Craig snickered softly, sipping at his coffee.
"Glad I get to relax." He murmured, Laura scoffing.
"Oh no. I'm making sure you look handsome as fuck, alright?" Craig grimaced.
"Mom!"
"I'm serious! You gotta woo your fiancé!"
"I've already done that!"
"Do it again!" Craig snorted, pushing his now empty plate forward as he stood. Thomas came in from the living room with Richard, chuckling.
"We'll clean up. Help him get ready, yeah?" Thomas said, Craig blushing.
"Already on it." Mary giggled, Laura and her rushing Craig down the hall to help him get ready. Around noon, there was a knock on the door, all the guys showing up in dress pants and shirts. Richard chuckled as he answered the door, already dressed and ready to go (a simple light blue button down with a pair of khakis).
"Well, you gentlemen look ready."
"I don't know what to wear for a wedding this is the best I got."
"Clyde, we all know Bebe laid that outfit out before she left." Clyde snorted.
"Yeah…my fiancée did lay it out." Kyle looked over at him.
"Oh! Yeah, dude, congrats!"
"Thanks! When are you three popping the question?" He pointed at Stan, Kyle, and Eric, all three blushing. Stan spoke first.
"I-I uh…have a ring. I just…I'm waiting for the right time. But…probably before the end of the summer."
"I've been looking, but I haven't found the right ring." Kyle admitted, blushing.
"I'm not ready yet. I love Millie, but we haven't been together nearly as long as you guys." Eric murmured, rubbing the back of his neck. Kenny lit up a cigarette, his arm draped around Butters' shoulders.
"We got hitched earlier this year." Butters turned dark red as Kenny broke the news, a small smile on his lips.
"Y-Yeah! Valentine's Day…right Ken?" Kenny kissed his cheek, holding up his hand to show the simple gold band on it.
"That's right, handsome." Stan grinned slowly.
"Congrats, you two." Kenny grinned widely, exhaling from his cigarette as Craig walked out. They all blinked, Craig never looking so dashing but small at the same time. He was clearly nervous, but there was excitement hidden in there. His hand was shoved into his black dress pants, suspenders attached to them. His other hand held onto his tux jacket. The black suspenders stood out against his simple white dress shirt, a black bowtie tied securely around his neck. Kenny whistled low, walking over and snapping the suspenders against his chest.
"Fuck, Tucker, no wonder they called you Craig Fucker. You're fucking hot." Craig snorted, taking the cigarette from his hand and taking a long draw from it before handing it back as he exhaled.
"I should punch you for that." He murmured, setting his tux jacket over the chair.
"H-He's right-right, Craig. I-I-I'd fuck-fuck you…well…let-let you f-fuck me." Jimmy said, Craig choking on the sip of water he took. His face turned a dark red, a grin crawling across his face as the guys laughed.
"Todos ustedes son un montón de fanáticos cachondos." Thomas laughed from the kitchen, Eric furrowing his brows.
"No fucking fair, dude!" Craig snickered, leaning against the wall.
"Oh, es justo." He murmured, a grin on his lips as Laura and Mary walked down the hall. Laura looked gorgeous, wearing a red dress that made her blue eyes and blonde hair pop. Mary wore a light blue dress, her dark hair curled and red lipstick making her look like a princess. Thomas and Richard blinked, their faces turning a dark red as they walked to their wives, kissing their cheeks. Craig watched them, his heart swelling as he watched his parents and in-laws giggling. Soon, Tucker. That'll be you soon enough.
Tweek paced around the lobby of the court house, the girls all watching him.
"Why are you pacing?" Bebe asked eventually, standing to block his path. She wore a black dress, her long hair pulled up into a ponytail.
"I-I'm just…nng, nervous." He breathed out, green eyes wide. Bebe chuckled, adjusting Tweek's hair. They had managed to tame it enough that it was out of his face, but it was still a little wild (Tweek always preferred it that way).
"Tweek…you're getting ready to marry the love of your life. You should be excited! There's nothing to worry about. Alright? Today…relax. Just this once. If not for yourself…for your husband." Tweek blinked at the word, a goofy smile forming and then disappearing as he looked down, trying to stop himself from smiling.
"I…yeah…" Wendy tilted his chin up, wearing a lavender dress with her hair straightened.
"You might…you might want to turn around." She whispered, a grin on her face. Tweek blinked, turning around slowly. They both froze, their eyes meeting.
I never meant to be so bad to you
Tweek grinned slowly, feeling the breath leave his body. Craig had a similar reaction, everything moving in slow motion.
One thing I said that I would never do
Everyone moved past them, rushing to their respective spouse, but Craig was frozen, staring at his soon to be husband as he heard a ringing in his ears. He looks…perfect.
A look from you and I would fall from grace
Tweek straightened up, biting onto his finger nail as he grinned, letting out a soft laugh. It was the only thing Craig could hear.
And that would wipe the smile right from my face
Tweek walked up to him, standing in front of him with a goofy grin on his face. He wore a similar outfit to Craig's, his shirt a light gray instead of white.
"Hey, Craig."
Do you remember when we used to dance?
"Hey, Tweek."
And incidents arose from circumstance
"You look…fuck. You look…incredible."
One thing led to another we were young
Craig grinned slowly, grabbing his hand and giving it a squeeze as everyone started heading into the court room as their appointment time was called.
"Yeah…you too, honey."
And we would scream together songs unsung
They walked slowly into the court room, both being the last ones to enter. The judge looked up from her spot up front as they made their way over, a small smile crawling across her face.
"Well…don't you boys look dashing." She chuckled, both of them blushing. Tweek looked back at his mom, who already had happy tears in her eyes. He turned back around, giving Craig's hand a squeeze.
"Thank-thank you, ma'am." Craig said, a grin on his face. He could barely focus, his head swimming with thoughts. He was about to marry his best friend, and fuck he was so excited. She smiled at them both.
"You two ready?" They looked at each other, turning back to her.
"Yes." They said at the same time, the judge chuckling as she opened her book.
"Well, by the looks of it…you two have quite the entourage behind you," Clyde grinned, waving to Craig as they glanced behind their shoulders. Token nudged his side with a snicker, Stan letting out a laugh. They turned back around to face her with a soft laugh escaping their lips. "I'm so happy you were all able to join these clearly very in love gentlemen here today to watch them join in marriage. Now, I usually go through this long process of dragging out the ceremony, but I can see the eagerness in both your eyes," Thomas snorted, Craig letting out a soft laugh. "And I think your friends and family are just as eager and excited. I take it this has been a long time coming?"
"Thirteen years!" Tricia shouted, causing everyone to laugh, including the judge.
"Damn! It says here you're both…twenty-three?"
"We've been best friends since we were ten." Tweek explained, the judge smiling.
"Well…isn't that special? I do mean that, boys. This is a special kind of love you two have," Tweek grinned up at Craig, who grinned down at him in return. "Why don't we get right to it, yeah? Mr. Tucker, Mr. Tweak, have you prepared vows for each other?" They both nodded, Craig reaching into his pocket to pull out the folded piece of paper as he turned to face Tweek. He glanced up, meeting his gaze.
It was the heat of the moment
Telling me what my heart meant
"Tweek…I…I've told you again and again how much you mean to me…but I feel like today I need to make it incredibly obvious…you're my best friend…sorry Clyde."
"It's cool I understand!" Craig snorted, glancing over at him with a grin before turning his attention back to the paper.
"I want to always remind you of that…every day when we wake up, I want to remind you how much I love and appreciate you. Whether it's waking up early to get you your morning coffee or just giving you that daily morning kiss…I'm willing to do anything to prove to you how much I love you. Tweek, you're my rock. You were there for me when I didn't even k-know I needed you to be there. You were there on my lowest days, but you were there for the h-highest days…and that's what this marriage will be. The good, the bad, the beautiful, and the ugly. I-I can't wait for the days I get to come home and see the beautiful: a little boy or girl running to greet me and a big hug and kiss from you," Tweek grinned slowly, eyes filling with tears. "I-It's everything I've always dreamed of. Despite my stoic nature…there's a heart of gold under this tattoo of mine…and this heart of gold has been yours since we met…we just didn't know it at the time. I love you, and I'll be saying it until the day I die. Here's-Here's to our beautiful life together." Craig choked the last line out with a grin on his face, his throat constricting with emotion as happy tears filled his eyes. Tweek sniffled, the judge nodding to signal he may read his own vows.
The heat of the moment
showed in your eyes
"To my knight in shining armor, my Rocket Man, my NASA enthusiast, and my best friend. I've watched you grow into a shining star and I'm so thrilled I have been a part of more than half your life. You're my rock as well, my protector, my therapist…but you've also helped me realize I'm stronger than I think I am. That I'm capable of more than I think. I'm proud to call you my husband, my life partner, my little astronomer. I've learned more about the stars and planets than I've bargained for, but shit, I love listening to you talk about it every time. You somehow always tell me something new. You've been there for me on days I needed a friend, on days I needed a lover, on days I needed a shoulder to cry on. You're literally everything to me, and I know that's a big task, but you've been up to the task for this long, I can assume you'll continue to be up for the task," Tweek grinned up at him, swallowing hard. "I-I can't wait for a little boy or girl to call us d-dad. I can't wait to watch you teach them Spanish. I can't wait f-for long nights of you teaching them the p-planets and-and watching you be the best version of yourself. I-I love you with every fiber in my being and I'm so h-happy you saw through the anxiety and coffee dependency to see there's more to me than that." Craig let out a laugh and sob, his cheeks red as he sniffled. The judge smiled, sniffling a bit herself as she cleared her throat.
"Well…those were the sweetest vows I have possibly ever heard…and I've been doing this for a very long time," Tweek giggled a bit, turning back to face the judge. "Do you two have the rings?" They nodded, Clyde and Wendy walking up to hand the silver bands to them (they were the unofficial Best Man and Bridesmaid). They sat back down, Tweek and Craig turning back to each other. "Mr. Tucker, please repeat after me," She smiled at the two of them, looking down at the book. "I, Craig Tucker, take you Tweek Tweak,"
"I, Craig Tucker, take you Tweek Tweak."
"For my lawful husband, to have and to hold from this day forward."
"For my lawful husband, to have and to hold from this day forward."
"For better, for worse, for richer, for poorer, in sickness and health, until death do us part."
"F-For better, for worse, for richer, for poorer, in sickness and h-health, until death do us p-part." Craig's voice broke on the last word, grinning as he slid the ring onto Tweek's finger. Tweek let out a soft giggle, grinning at the judge.
"Now, Mr. Tweak, you do the same," She smiled softly. "I, Tweek Tweak, take you, Craig Tucker."
"I-I, Tweek Tweak, take you, Craig Tucker."
"For my lawful husband, to have and to hold from this day forward."
"For my lawful husband, to have-have and to hold from this day forward."
"For better, for worse, for richer, for poorer, in sickness and health, until death do us part."
"For better, for-for worse, for richer, for poorer, in sickness and health, until d-death do us part." Tweek slid the ring on Craig's finger, both boys practically jumping with anticipation. The judge chuckled, closing the book.
"By the power vested in me, I'm happy to introduce the newly-weds: Mr. and Mr. Tweek and Craig Tucker. Craig? You may kiss your husband." Tweek yelled with joy, Craig grabbing his face as he pressed their lips together. The cheering of their family and friends was overwhelming, the judge laughing softly as she signed their marriage certificate. Craig pulled away, holding onto Tweek's face as they grinned at each other. Craig wasn't sure what caused it, but he saw their entire lives flash: the first time they met with Tweek's thermos rolling up to his feet, the first time they hung out just them at Craig's and playing with Stripe #4, he saw Tweek's smile when he figured skated in front of Craig for the first time, he saw Tweek drawing on his arm one day at school, telling Craig it was a "practice tattoo". Craig grinned wider as he saw Tweek figure skating at that competition, saw him crying over Jacob but the thankful look on his face when Craig beat him up, the time they got lost in South Philadelphia and ended up walking ten miles, the time they went to pride one summer in Philly, and now, with their whole lives ahead of them, he saw everything.
"I love you, Tweek Tucker." He breathed out, unable to contain his emotions as he let out a sob, Tweek grinning at his new name.
"I-I love you, Craig Tucker." Craig pulled him back in to a kiss, sparks tingling his lips as he continued to place gentle kisses over and over to his lips. Everything that has happened in his life flashed through Tweek's mind, a grin on his face as happy tears fell down his cheeks onto Craig's hands. This was the beginning of something wonderful. Tweek Tweak was no longer the kid with the same first and last night, but he was Tweek Tucker, a figure skater, a front desk manager, a loving husband, and a best friend. As they turned to see their ecstatic family and friends, Craig tugged him to his chest, closing his eyes as he thought back to Tweek's figure skating performance. He smiled, his mind drifting to that day, the day he said I love you to his husband for the first time, the thought of the cool rink pricking his hands and his eyes wet with happy tears as he remembered Tweek's smiling face as he performed. He pressed a kiss to his forehead, grinning against his skin.
And I think it's gonna be a long long time
'Till touch down brings me round again to find
Craig glanced at his family, Tricia and his mom crying happy tears as Thomas held his thumb up to him, a grin on his face.
I'm not the man they think I am at home
Oh no no no I'm a rocket man
Tweek looked up at him, pressing his lips to Craig's again. Craig felt those sparks again, sighing into the kiss as his mind could only focus on Tweek and their entire lives.

NOTE: HOLY SHIT! I want to take the time to thank you all for starting this journey with me. When I first started this, I had no idea so many people would fall in love with this silly AU I imagined while ice skating in center city Philadelphia. It snowed today here in the city, and I found that appropriate for the posting of the final chapter. I will be posting the epilogue tomorrow and I want to thank everyone again for the beautiful words and compliments you all gave me. These past few weeks have been really hard and writing has been a wonderful distraction! I love you all, and until tomorrow, I hope you enjoyed this last chapter 3 As always, any and all feedback is appreciated!
