-Next day-

Craig's pov

I woke up slowly dragging my body off my floor, since I gave Tweek my bed. I immediately saw he wasn't there, but then I remembered he's a coffee addict. I checked the time and saw it was about 7am, which I wanted more sleep. Though I'd have to make the most of my time with Tweek and he's probably been awake since about 4am. I went over to my drawers and picked up the first thing I saw, smelt it, and changed out of my pj's to clean ish shirt. Then I took my phone off the charger, before that I checked all my notifications, mainly all from Clyde describing a food truck that came to South Park. After that I fed Stripe with the generic Kroger brand of pet food. The bag isn't as heavy anymore after using it for about a month straight. I set it down next to my desk, and clipped it. With that I headed downstairs to go find Tweek.

As soon as I hit the bottom of the stairs I could smell the air. It was hit with roasting coffee on the pot smell. Similarly it smelt toxic too, like gasoline that had been dripping for too long. I walked towards the kitchen, and saw Tweek in his zone of pouring some steaming dark roast coffee. After he set the pot down on the counter. I went up to him

"Good morning, honey." He quickly turned around in a panic. "Ack! Craig, why are you up so early?!" I shrugged my shoulders, and he told me "Your dad left a note on the fridge saying he's going to take us to an amusement park. The world famous Disney World. But I saw videos of people dying and getting kidnapped there." He said in a slight scream. "Well if it ends out like that I'll protect you with my life." He stared at me for that comment. "I-I won't make it if you die." "Even though I won't die at an amusement park I'll make sure everything is inline to make you feel better." He took a drink of his coffee and said, "I'm terrified of you dying. It's one of those nightmare situations for me." I didn't know how to comfort him, so I just gave him a hug to try to comfort him.

I reached for my phone to call my dad. He is still a little uncomfortable about me being gay, but he's learning to deal with it. I think that he is taking us just to accept it. Yet I still appreciate him trying. I pressed on his contact and waited for him to pick up. About ten seconds later he answered "What Craig?" I put the phone up to my ear, "You really going to take us?" "Yeah Yeah, I just needed to get some cash outta the ATM, before we headed on our way, so get yourself cleaned up." "Yeah bye." I hung up on him and turned to Tweek. "You might want to change into a short-sleeve shirt, due to the amount of heat there is at the parks. Bring along your other shirt though incase we ride Splash Mountain." He proceeded to take off his shirt right then and there. "NOT RIGHT NOW!" He was now just standing there without a top and just didn't care. "I THOUGHT YOU WANTED ME TO CHANGE?!" I mentally face palmed. "It's not like you haven't seen me shirtless before. We did fight quite a few times and we were only in boxers." "Whatever." He ran up the stairs to pack some stuff for our adventurous day.

-Time skip to when my dad got home-

“You kids ready to go?” We both nodded and I slung my mini-backpack on my shoulder. Me and Tweek raced out the door into my dad’s red truck.

-Time Skip-

We arrived at Magic Kingdom first, after getting our bag checked at security we headed for the rides. I noticed it was a little chilly out here, and I was a complete idiot and forgot it was December. Luckily I packed my jacket. I pulled it out and zipped it up. After that I dragged Tweek along to Dumbo the Flying Elephant ride for an easy first ride for him. We got on one of the Elephants as the cast member came over and pushed the bar down to make sure we were safe. “So how’s life been in South Park Tweek?” I asked him. He just stayed silent and looked to the side as the ride was moving up and down at a slow pace. “I take it as the normal crazy.” I didn’t really know how to keep the conversation moving, so it was a quiet first ride. We rode a few more rides at Magic Kingdom. We had a park hopper pass, so we decided to use it. We went over to Animal Kingdom, because there is a dino land part of the park. I thought Tweek might enjoy it. On the bus he was quite uncomfortable by how many people are compacted, but I just told him that it’s what companies do when they want money. He talked about how his family company isn’t doing so well at the moment. That he has been overworking himself, but doesn’t know how to tell people. I admire him for having the passion to help his family out. I just hate that he suffers alone. I guess you sometimes just have to adjust in your own way. I used to help him with his problems a lot more, yet he slowly became more closed off and angry. Not at me but at others. I occasionally see videos of him smacking people for stupid reasons. It was wrong morally but at the same time it kicked ass. I loved that I could bring out the true side of him.  He was always so paranoid, and I slowly figured out how to calm it by watching a fight between Heidi and fatass.

When we got off the tram I was looking for my dad and I couldn’t find him. I didn’t want to worry Tweek so I just told him that my dad was going to meet us at Expedition Everest. At least it would give me some time to plan on how to get back to my dad. Since the lame father of mine forgot his phone on the counter at home. I grabbed his hand and pulled him through the crowds of families and kids screaming. A few minutes later we reached the line. It was about a fifteen minute wait. "Hey aren't you scared of rides that go backwards?" He asked me. "Uh a bit yeah, but I've rode it before with Tricia and it wasn't thattt scary. She kept screaming that I was a pussy if I didn't ride it." Tweek laughed at that "It's because you are a pussy Craig." I was stunned he never called me that before. "I am not." By the time we finished our conversation it was our time to hope in the seats.

We sat in our seats and I decided to hold Tweek's hand because obviously he was scared, not me…

The ride started and when the track change was happening while we were about to go backwards the ride just stopped. It stopped longer than normal. There was tension in the air until an announcement went off "I'm sorry folks, we need to make an in-show exit." I looked at Tweek and he started already trying to find a way to get out of here as fast. "What if we don't make it off in time and we fall out?!" I held his hand tighter. "All we are going to do now is get off on the stairs that are beside the tracks. Then we'll have to go down twenty flights of stairs. Finally we will be at the bottom and explore the park again." I say with confidence to try to reassure him.

The cast member let all of our restraints off of us, so we can walk down the stairs. She slowly checked everyone and made sure the riders were okay. Me and Tweek followed the lady. After about twenty minutes of walking we got to the bottom of the stairs, then let off to go do whatever.

"Where is your dad?" I just shrugged. "I don't know." "You lied to me." He started fake crying.  "My baby I'm so sorry I'll have to make it up to you by buying you a famous stuffed animal to cheer you up." I said in a high pitched voice to play along. My dad spotted us and called out "There you guys are!" He ran over to us. His breathing was a bit off. "Yep we are safe."

"Let's go home, I don't want another kidnap scare." We all walked into the sunset like one of those cheesy romance movies.
