And you're singing the songs,
Thinking this is the life,
And you wake up in the morning,
And your head feels twice the size.
Where you gonna go, where you gonna go,
Where you gonna sleep tonight?

There's no other place they'd rather be, right now. Everything was so... perfect! If Tweek and Craig could travel back in time, and tell their past selves that everything would go perfectly on their wedding day, and that they were stressing for nothing, they would. It's just like how they pictured: the nightsky filled with stars illuminated the forest and the pond, along with the multiple colorful lights that decorated the trees. Everyone was dancing with their loved ones, having a great time, some of them drinking, others just talking.

For a couple of hours, everyone was being able to forget how hard and intense life can be. And because of a couple of songs, they're having a great time, appreciating the wonders of the oh-so feared youth.

Kyle had offered the newlyweds a tape recorder, along with a bag filled with tapes especially dedicated to them. Each one of their friends and family members had prepared tapes, dedicating songs to both of them. There were all types of genres in those. From rock, to pop, to metal, classic, jazz even!

While everyone was dancing- as the soft summer breeze took over the, what was supposed to be, a cold night- Tweek and Craig were sitting on a table, reading the titles of the songs their friends had dedicated them.

"Stan gave us 'Starlight' by Muse." Craig showed the tape to his husband.

"I love that one! Clyde gave us 'Somewhere Only We Know' by Keane. I haven't heard that one in a while."

"Bebe gave us 'Read My Mind' by The Killers. I swear, I never knew these people had good taste, after all!"

"What are you guys doing?! There's a party going on!" Kenny approached the two, trapping their necks between his arms.

"We're just reading the tapes you gave us. You got a good one, Ken. 'Instant Crush' by Daft Punk, huh?"

He chuckled, "Yeah, I really like that one. Do y'all remember when we used to listen to it all the time when we were 14? Man, those were the days... Welp. It doesn't matter, you guys can do that later. Come dance with us! Calvin is gonna play 'This Is The Life' by our dearest Amy, and I know how much you guys love that song!"

As the song started, Cartman spotted Yentl talking to Red, next to the stage. He gulped, walking towards his girlfriend. No matter how long they've been dating, something will always make him feel nervous to even talk to the girl.

"Hey, Yentl." He called her, the woman turning around, upon hearing her boyfriend's voice.

"Yes, love?"

Red smiled, leaving the place, quietly.

"Do you wanna like, dance?"

'Dance to what, stupid? A pop song?'

"I'd love to! Let's go!" The woman grabbed Eric by the wrist, pulling him along with her to the white platform.

He smiled, not knowing exactly when he opened such a soft spot in his heart for her. Probably when he moved out of South Park. It's true what they say: when you move places, you change yourself. That's probably why he's not so aggressive anymore.

Her brown locks bounced up and down, as she ran through the crowd of people, looking for an open spot. Hearing the lyrics, the brunette kind of realized why Tweek and Craig liked the song so much. It described the perfect night for people to enjoy their youth, and yet it was so nostalgic. So what the heck, if his friends are watching him, dancing happily with his girlfriend? Fuck them! He's happy right now, and that's all that matters!
