When you walk into the room,
You pull me close, and we start to move,
And we're spinnin' with the stars above,
And you lift me up in a wave of love.

September 12th, 5 pm.
There was a moment of silence before Craig looked up and saw Stan walking down the aisle. He had a stupid grin on his face, looking directly at Craig. He knew what that look meant.
It meant "I love to see you suffer, asshole".
But Craig will give him some credit, Stan looked pretty handsome in that suit. Never, in his entire life, has he thought this moment would come. He had dreamed of it, but never truly believed it. When Stan reached the altar, he fist bumped his shoulder, smiling at his friend. They stayed there, waiting for the rest of the groomsmen to appear.
First came Kenny, who felt the need to moonwalk down the entire aisle. Everyone laughed, including Craig. These small moments made him realize how silly he was being, overthinking stuff too much. This is meant to be a fun and joyous day! He will enjoy every second of it, as he promised his father.
The blond, reaching the altar, finger gunned Craig as a final pose. Kenny always knew the right moments to be silly and to be serious. He knew that Craig was nervous, and this definitely made him feel much better. He took his place next to Stan, the two greeting each other with a fist bump.
They watched as Kyle walked up next. The man was smiling, never taking his eyes off Craig, and he knew exactly what he was doing. He was, indirectly, saying how proud he was of him. He knows Kyle well enough to know that. Then, he looked forward, spotting Stan at the front. The ravenhead held his boyfriend's hand to help him up the altar, and then... then it was Cartman's turn...
Craig will be spending every day of his life wondering who the heck had the brilliant idea of putting Cartman to walk down the aisle, right before Tweek. When the guy appeared at the end of the hall, he had the most bored expression he's ever shown. But everyone who knows Eric, also knows that he's not bored. He's just embarrassed of having all eyes on him on such a gay thing as a wedding. He took his sweet time walking down the aisle, and that made Kyle's blood boil.
'Hurry up, asshole. This ain't your wedding!'
Upon reaching the altar and positioning himself next to Kyle, Cartman took this moment to say one last thing before the flower girl- Tweek's little cousin- appeared.
"Craig, no offense, but this is the gayest thing I've ever had the chance to witness."
"No shit, dude. It's two guys getting married."
"No, dude, for me any type of marriage is gay marriage. You're doing good, I guess."
Their comments stopped once a little girl appeared from behind the door. Craig couldn't help but smile at the kid. Her name was Sophie, and Craig had met her a couple of months ago, during Tweek's family dinner. Richard and Helen had insisted for him to come along, since he was, at the time, Tweek's fiancé. They wanted their family to meet the oh-so famous Tucker. It was an awkward experience, to say the least. But on the bright side, he got to spend more time with Tweek than with his family!
The little girl looked adorable. She was wearing a fluffy pink dress, and her little basket full of petals was decorated with a small white bow. No, seriously, even the boys at the altar awed at the sight. What a precious little thing. Everyone watched as Sophie spread the petals along the aisle, giggling at the pictures her mother was taking.
In Craig's mind, this was funny. Usually the flower girl appears before the bride, but there is no bride here. The man would've laughed if a part of himself didn't find all of this adorable and sweet.
And, somehow, weirdly stereotypical.
Upon reaching the altar, basket finally empty, the little girl looked up at Craig. He smiled back at her, before she signed for him to come closer. He chuckled, getting down on one knee to hear what she had to say.
Suddenly, she yaked his tie, pulling him down violently, making Craig choke a bit. She got closer to his face, whispering, "Hurt Tweek, and I will end your bloodline."
His eyes widened in horror and the boys laughed loudly (Kenny even oinked), when the girl's mother ran up to the altar to grab her daughter. She apologized to the ravenhead, who looked at her with a nervous smile. He stood back up, clearing his throat and masculinity as Clyde slapped his back repeatedly.
"What a great first impression, am I right?" He chuckled, stopping when Craig started glaring daggers at him. The entire church was a fit of laughter. This was by far the best wedding any of them has attended to.
Suddenly, the room went quiet when Father Maxi started speaking again.
"Now, guys. I know we don't have a bride, today, but we do have a second groom. So everyone, please stand up!"
At those words, Craig's breath hitched. He exhaled loudly, feeling Clyde patting his back, softly. He watched as all of the people in the room stood up, and the sun from the late afternoon painted the church in tones of yellow and orange. A new song started playing, and he thought it:
'It's now. It's finally happening.'
Everyone's whispers and comments were muted once he saw the silhouette of his boyfriend, under the big doors of the church. When his vision finally adjusted to the sun, he saw Tweek standing there, looking to his right. His tuxedo was all white, and his hair wasn't in a ponytail as it usually was. And that, somehow, made Craig's heart skip a beat. He looked so... perfect.
Suddenly, Richard appeared to join him, locking arms with his son. He looked down at the blond, nodding his head reassuringly. Tweek smiled at his father, before he finally faced forward. When he took his first step, and his and Craig's eyes met, he saw his entire past and future with him flashing before his eyes, as the rest of the room disappeared for him. Right now it was just him and Craig.
The ravenhead took a deep breath, trying to contain whatever he was feeling at the moment. But when he saw Tweek's smile, he knew he didn't have to put his defenses up anymore. He smiled at his love, as tears started forming in his eyes.
Tweek looked around, spotting his mother at the front row on the right. Of course she was crying, he would be surprised if she wasn't. He looked to his left, spotting Craig's parents and sister, smiling at him. He was surprised that all of them had tears in their eyes, even Thomas. He's always known that man had a soft spot.
When he realized, he was arriving at the altar. Craig shook his head, waking back up to reality, slowly walking down to receive his boyfriend and father-in-law.
Tweek watched as his father hugged Craig, both of them smiling widely. When they let go of each other, Richard put a hand on the man's shoulder.
"Take good care of him, okay?"
And Craig nodded, smiling at the older man.
"Always."
Richard smiled, hugging his son tightly. He knows this is a new chapter in his life, and oh, is he proud of him... Noticing his wife crying on the front row, he went to seat next to her, giving the two boys one last smile.
"Tweek."
"GAH!!- Oh- oh, hey, Thomas..."
"Yeah, I was expecting that." Both of them laughed, the older man hugging the blond, who returned the hug. "Take care of Craig for me, okay? Make sure he doesn't do anything stupid."
"Jeez, thanks, dad..." The latter flipped his father off, the man returning the gesture effortlessly.
When he went back to his seat, Craig took a deep breath, looking back at Tweek. He offered him his hand, which the blond took, gladly. They walked up to Father Maxi, seeing their friends smiles. To everyone's surprise, Stan was actually on the verge of tears, and Clyde...
We don't need to talk about Clyde, do we..?
