Craig was sitting in the cafeteria of his school, this was the place they sat, waiting for everyone to come piling in before it was time to go to homeroom. he bit his nails anxiously, it was 10 minutes before it was time to go to their homerooms, and tweek still wasn't here. he was never late, in fact, he was always early. his mom had to go to work at 7 am and always dropped tweek off before going to work. he was always one of the first ones here.
but he wasn't here today. and craig was extremely worried for some reason. it was february and he hasn't been absent all year. Craig quickly snuck out of the doors of the school. technically, the school day hasn't even started yet, so hopefully he doesn't get in too much trouble. he grabbed his bike and made his way to tweek's house, semi relieved to not see a car in the driveway. this meant tweek's parents aren't home.
he knocked on the door a few times and rang the doorbell, waiting impatiently for someone to answer.
a tired tweek opened the door, eyes quickly widening and looking around outside before frantically pulling craig inside. "what are you doing here?" Tweek asked, shakily. "i was worried about you, you're never late or absent to school. are you oka-" craig was interrupted by tweek sneezing. "oh." "yeah, i'm fine, just sick." Tweek replied, walking away to grab a tissue. "my mom almost took me to the hospital, thank god she didn't, it's just a cold. but i didn't get any sleep last night." "is she at work?" "nope, i told her that she should go to work but she wouldn't listen to me and insisted on staying with me all day incase i need anything. she went to run errands though, we have a little bit of time before she comes back." Tweek replied, sitting on the couch and patting the seat next to him for craig to sit.
He did, he laid on the other end of the couch, holding his arms out for tweek to come lay next to him. he gently laid between his legs and put his head on craig's chest. the couch was quite small so it was really uncomfortable, but they had each other's company which was all that mattered. Craig wrapped his arms around tweek's waist, hugging him tightly against him. he ran his fingers through tweek's hair, trying to somewhat brush it with his hands.
Tweek's eyes were puffy and tired looking and his nose was red, yet somehow he still looked adorable. Tweek inched up closer to rest his head on craig's shoulder and he slowly fell back asleep, with just the sound of their breathing and soft sniffles
