I watched my ceiling fan spin. This is it, I fucked up. My door slammed open.
"Craiggg" Red sang.
"Leave me alone"
"I can't let you rot in your room" (Red)
"Shouldn't you be your zoom call"
"Pfft, I have my camera off" Red laughed.
"And then you wonder why you have straight Fs"
"It's actually straight Ds" Red crossed her arms.
I sighed and continued to stare at the ceiling fan.
"Craig get up" (R)
"No"
"Don't make me drag you" She said as she grabbed my legs.
"Leave me alone"
She pulled my legs.
THUMP
"Ouch, what the hell" I laid on the ground.
"I told you to get up" She huffed.
"All you did was make me hit my head on the floor"
She rolled her eyes. I stared at the ceiling.
"Hm" She hopped over me.
"You know there is a saying, that if you hop over someone they'll stop growing"
"Wow, thats crazy" She said sarcastically as I heard rattling.
"Yeah so basically you just screwed me over, now I'll never grow"
"You're tall enough" She said as she walked back to me.
She sat down on the ground and held her hands out. She placed Stripes on my chest.
"He misses you" (R)
I grabbed Stripe and sat up. I just stared at him as he laid on my palm.
"I told you" (R)
I sighed and continued to watch Stripe sleep in my hands.
"Look Craig, I know you think it's the end of the world but you shouldn't continue to hurt yourself over some guy" (R)
"It's not some guy, it's Tweek"
"And you shouldn't hurt him either. Maybe you should just respect his wishes and leave him alone. It probably hurts to see you. You guys just both need to heal. Once that comes, if you still like him, you can try again. Just don't push it Tucker" Red smiled.
"It hurts to see him hurt. I fucked up badly. He deserves better but I also don't want him with anyone else"
She put her hand on my shoulder.
"Then...then I should become better"
She smiled.
"Don't sulk on the past, focus on the present. How can you fix it and heal" (R)
"Not fix, but make amends"
She nodded.
"I should give him space but also remind him that I like him and only want what's best"
"There you go" Red smiled.
"How do I do that"
"Occasional small gestures. Opening a door for him, accidentally bringing his favorite fruit and giving it to him, and so on" (R)
"Thanks Red"
"No problem" She said as she stood up.
She left my room. I got up and put Stripe back in his cage. I got on my phone and texted Kenny.
