3rd pov

Tweek and Craig were both washing up for bed by doing the usual things like brushing teeth, changing into pajamas, and feeding Stripe. It was a perfect peaceful night while to the imp it was but to the pastor it was a pretty stressful night, he was going to compliment Tweek or what Clyde liked to call it 'A Small Flirt' but Craig was too anxious to say anything when he had good opportunities. The anxious pastor stood there looking at himself in the bathroom mirror, he had just finished brushing his teeth. He kept mumbling to himself that 'everything's okay, it's just one tiny compliment that will probably make him smile that's it, just a small compliment' Craig put his hands together and closed his eyes

Shit, I'm so fucking stressed! I'm never this stress, it's just a compliment it's not like I'm saying 'I'm gay for you so let's go out'
NO of course it's nothing like that it's just a small compliment.
"God, I need some of your strength. I'm going to give Tweek a little compliment and ya I know he's a imp but my friends said that 'flirting' with him will do some good. so please give me some strength, Amen" alright let's fucking do this!
I walked out the bathroom and to my room, as I enter I stopped right in my tracks
Tweek was playing with Stripe on his lap and he had a small smile on his face. I must've been standing there star struck for more than 2 minutes because the blondie looked up at me and said "What are you looking at?"

"You're eyes...you have really pretty green eyes"

Tweek's pov

I sat there on top of Craig's bed with Stripe on my lap, I was giving her little pets as I waited for the noiret to finish brushing his teeth. I feel like I'm being watched..is it the gnomes? No it's not them. I look up and see a star struck Craig Tucker. "What are you looking at?" When I spoke up I broke his trance

"You're eyes...you have really pretty green eyes" I felt my cheeks quickly burn up, getting redder by the second

"R-Really?"

"Yes" I don't know if it's his monotone voice or just him in general to make it so hard to believe that he likes my eyes, I mean it wouldn't matter either way I've heard a lot of people tell me I have nice eyes but hearing him say it is special to me..
"T-Thank you! I like your freckles and moles, they remind me of constellations"
I must've said something out of this world because his eyes lit up "You like space?!"
"I mean ya, I don't know a whole bunch but I do"

"Can I teach you about it?"

"Sure! Only if it's not too much work"

"Okay!" I've never seen Craig like this, you can tell he's happy even if he has a expressionless face you can still tell; after a few minutes of the noiret rummaging through his closet he pulled out two big books, I'm guessing they're about space.
"I memorized these books but I thought you might wanna look at the pictures too" I nod my head as I watch him pull out a little light projector and remote from his desk drawer, he turned off the lights then pressed a button and the whole room lit up with stars and constellations. I was in 'awe'. Craig walked up to me and picked up Stripe, placing her inside her cage with a bowl of strawberries. When he came back to the bed I was pushed over so Craig could kinda get into the covers, his lower half was covered. "Get comfortable so I can start talking"
"Oh of course professor Tucker" I heard him slightly chuckle. I got half into the covers and placed my head on his chest "Alright I'm ready!" Craig nodded

It's been about an hour and I'm loving this, hearing Craig talk is soothing to me and I'm pretty sure a lot of people might think hearing a monotone voice for almost over an hour might get annoying but I completely disagree, his voice is so calming that I'm having a hard time staying awake..I think I lov- like Craig, I like Craig a lot..he's a great friend.

"Tweek did you know that when a star doesn't have any fuel left it dies then the star collapses and the outer layers explode as a supernova"
"Tweek?" I look at the blonde boy's face and he's asleep, I must've tired him out with space. Nice. I closed the book and place it on my night stand, I'm glad Tweek let me talked about space next time I'll ask what his special interest is. I adjusted my body, making sure I don't pull the imp off my chest so he doesn't wake up, once I'm comfortable I place my hand on top of his head. I played with strands of his hair till I dozed off

Stripe's pov

Aw they're fucking gay
