It's finally Christmas time in Southpark. The roads filled with snow, many homeowners scraping ice off their cars to get to work, children putting on the biggest winter coats they have to attend school until their Christmas break. All in time for the Holiday season...

"Take that asshole!" Kyle yells throwing a snowball towards Cartman outside of the elementary.
"You stupid Jew! You'll pay for that Kyle!" He wined back picking up his own wad of snow.
School has ended for the day and many of the kids were playing outside with the snow covering the yard right outside.
"Woah! Tolkien that snowman looks amazing dude!" Clyde gleamed. Tolkien stood up and puffed his chest out proud.
"Thanks!" He smirked.
Everyone was having a wonderful time.
Far away from everyone else sat Tweek Tweak alone on a bench with his lukewarm coffee that his parents gave him that morning. He never really liked the winter and the idea of getting a cold was stressful enough for him to avoid it. As he sat on the bench watching all of his classmates stuff eachother with snowballs Craig Tucker sat beside him.
"Hey Tweek, are you excited? It's almost Christmas break." He asked, picking up a conversation.
Tweek turned over to look at Craig and gave him an unsure look.
"A bit, Ah! I just want to stay in my warm b-bed all day, Ah!" He responded.
Tweek and Craig had been dating for the most part of school, they always kept eachother company and would talk all the time.
"Well, I kinda wanted to ask if you wanted to stay the night at my house, my parents are leaving today because of an emergency with my grandma and my little sister is with her friend." He asked shyly.
Tweek's face grew a wide smile.
"Sure, I'll j-just need to let my parents know that, Ah! I'm heading over there!" Craig gave a warm smile.
They both kept talking for the remainder of the time until the bus pulled up to take Craig to his house and Mrs. Tweak to pick up Tweek.
"How was school dear?" Helen asked.
Tweek put his head up against the window of the front car seat and peered outside at the passing houses, admiring their festive decorations.
"Pretty good,Ah! Craig invited me to stay the night though, I was hoping, Ah! I could go." Tweek twitched nervously, his mother smiled.
"Oh of course you can go Tweek! He's your boyfriend after all!" She gleamed.
Tweek's face flushed red.
"M-Mom!"



Craig rushed off the bus and quickly ran up to his room to drop his backpack and heavy coat, he needed to make sure the place was perfect. Tweek always went and stayed over at his house, but tonight was different. He was going to be giving Tweek a gift, he's been planning this for over 3 months, just wishing it could be special. He ran to the kitchen and quickly started to make a meal for the two of them.
What will he make? Pasta? Spaghetti and meatballs? Lasagna? Not too far in did Craig realize that firstly he didn't know how to cook, and secondly the last time he did he caught the stove on fire. He cleaned and wiped down the kitchen and decided to just order pizza for the two of them. He washed every surface of the house until it was squeaky clean, he really hoped this would be a perfect night.
He organized the living room, cleaned up his room, and scrubbed the bathroom.
When the pizza arrived he set it down on the living room table along with the soft drinks he ordered. He got a candy bowl that his mother had made for Christmas, a batch of brownies that his little sister made for her tea party, and chips from the cupboards. He felt accomplished, but something felt wrong.
"What else should I add?..." Craig questioned his set up.
"Ah ha!" Craig scrambled up the stairs into his room and grabbed two of the largest pillows he had along side his outer space themed blanket. He set them on the couch and felt a sense of happiness wash over him. He has been waiting so long for this, he wanted to make Tweek have a special Christmas this year since he's always been a big grudge when it came to the winter time. Craig changed into his pjs, a black shirt with an alien wearing a Christmas hat and some blue long sweatpants, and sat on the couch. He looked across the various streaming channels and decided on watching "Home alone." It's not as if he was fond of the movie but it had a festive feel to it and it would work well with the timing. As he was setting the movie up the sound of hard wood knocking filled the room, it's Tweek!
Craig rushed off the couch and grabbed the door handle swinging it open.
"H-hey Craig! I'm ready!" Tweek gleamed.
Craig smiled back and ushered him inside, away from the cold.
"Tonight is going to be amazing, I got loads of snacks, cool movies to watch, and video games. Basically everything we ever need for the best night ever." Craig sneered. Tweek chuckled.
"Well what should we do first?" Tweek asked plopping down onto the couch.
Craig scratched his chin looking around the comfy evening he set up for the two of them.
"We can watch a movie, how about Home alone?" He asked.
Tweek nodded his head and took a slice of pizza off the tray.
Craig got up on the couch and pressed play to start the movie, also grabbing a slice of pizza shortly after.



"Those robbers are such dumbasses.." Craig said bluntly taking a sip of his soft drink.
"I agree, I mean if y-you see a boobytrap..don't g-go near it!" Tweek complied grabbing a handful of chips.
The movie ended and now the pair sat in the lightly lit house, snow falling heavier by the second right outside.
"It's getting really bad outside, do you think school will get cancelled t-tomorrow?" Tweek asked peering outside the window.
"Probably, if Principal PC's car gets even a bit of ice then he won't want to leave for work." Craig rolled his eyes sarcastically.
"Anyways, lets play some games, do you want to play Mario Party?" Craig offered throwing the other controller towards Tweek.
"Alright then." Tweek rushes back to the couch and they both begin their fun gaming night.
"Ha! Take that Tweek!" Craig snickered childishly.
Tweek stayed silent and started to feel uneasy, earning the attention of a concerned Craig.
"Are you okay honey?" Craig asked.
Tweek looked back at the window outside, chills running down his spine.
"Craig it's getting really bad outside, what if it snows so bad that the power goes out? Or maybe we get stuck in the house?!" Tweek began rambling. Tweek began shaking and pulling his hair the more he became frantic.
Craig quickly grabbed Tweek's hands and put them down on his lap then placed his hands back onto his cheeks.
"It will be okay babe, don't worry we won't be stuck here, and even if we did I'm still here with you." Craig gave Tweek a soft gentle smile. Tweek's face began to flush red as he looked back up at Craig.
"Thanks Craig, I'm just pretty uneasy.." he responded.
Craig looked at Tweek's deep blue eyes, getting caught in a tender moment.
The pair both inched closer to eachother, gazing into the other's eyes. As soon as their faces were merely centimeters apart...BOOM!
The power shut off, not only in the Tucker's house but in every house in South Park.
"AHHHHH!!!" Tweek screamed, pulling onto Craig's shirt collar.
"Tweek calm down!" Craig yearned.
It seems to be that the power went out due to the harsh cold temperatures outside.
"We're going to die! We're gonna freeze to death!" Tweek cried.
Craig felt terrible, tonight was supposed to be perfect and he ruined it. He grabbed his phone off from the table and turned the flashlight on.
"Tweek it's alright I'm right here, don't worry." Craig comforted.
Tweek continued shaking but eventually began to relax.
The pair sat on the couch in silence, hearing the harsh winds outside of the house.
Tweek looked around, his sight adjusting to the darkness of the room.
"I'm sorry" Craig said defeated.
Tweek quickly turned his head over to look at his boyfriend.
"W-what?" He questioned.
"I'm sorry, I ruined our day together. I had been planning this day for so long, trying to perfect everything just for us, and I ended up blowing it." Craig said looking down at the ground.
Tweek looked up at Craig with a frown.
"You shouldn't be sorry, you don't control the weather! Today was perfect and amazing! I had so much fun, you made me feel so excited and happy, I was looking forward to this all day! And you being here with me was the best part." Tweek smiled.
Craig's face began to blush at all the kind words Tweek had just spewed at him.
"W-well there's one more thing.." Craig said shyly.
Tweek gave a confused glance as Craig pulled a poorly wrapped present from the other side of the couch.
"I wanted to give you this.." He said handing the piece to the blond headed boy.
Tweek scanned over the gift and his stomach began to flip.
"C-Craig...you didn't have to." Tweek said with a gentle smile.
Craig gave him a gleaming look gesturing him to open the gift.
Tweek ripped away at the paper, tearing every bit off revealing a small velvet box. He opened the box to reveal a ring, a little "C" carved into it, the surrounding parts of the ring saying "I love you" in all languages.
Tweek's heart began to flutter.
"I-is this..?"
"A promise ring, I have one too so we can match." Craig said pulling up his hand to show off his similar ring carved with a small "T."
Tweek smiled greatly and attacked Craig with the biggest hug ever.
"I love it so much! Thank you Craig!" He said sweetly. He took the ring carefully out of the box and placed it onto his corresponding ring finger.
The pair both smiled at the matching "engagement" rings they both had.
"Soooo...about earlier.." Craig snickered.
Tweek chuckled and turned towards the blue Chullo headed boy.
They both inched closer to the other and pressed their lips onto eachother, sharing a sweet tender kiss. As they both pulled away the light suddenly beamed back on.
The pair jumped off the couch and ran towards to window and saw as every house soon lit back up again.
They laughed and cuddled back up on the couch rewatching the "Red Racer" series, highly suggested by Craig.
"This was the best Christmas ever.." Tweek gleamed, giving a quick peck on Craig's cheek.
Craig smiled
"Sure was."
