Tweek finds me after school. "Craig! Hey!"
"Hey, Tweek."
"My parents said they would be willing to interview you for the job!"
"Really? When?"
"How about tomorrow?"
"That should work I guess. What should I wear?"
"Just your normal clothes. They don't mind too much."
"Got it. Thanks again for the opportunity."
"No problem! I think if I had to work with anyone, I would want it to be you. You're one of my best friends after all."
"Right, best friends."
I continue to walk.
"Uhm..." Tweek calls out.
I turn to him. He's looking right into my eyes. "Need something?"
"No..."
I step closer to him. "That wasn't convincing. What's up?"
"I uh... I want to see Stripe again. Are you busy now?"
"I'm not. Wanna come over?"
He smiles. "Yes!"
I do my best to not show how happy that made me.

As we walk to my house, we talk to each other about how our first days went. He tells me stories of how he embarrassed himself in class and I tell him how I didn't really talk to anyone.
When we arrive at my house I take out my key and open the door for us.
"Stripe is in my room, the same place he always is. I'm gonna go to the bathroom but I'll meet you up there."Tweek nods "Okay!"
I finish up in the bathroom and go upstairs. Tweek is sitting on the floor looking through a pile of magazines.
"What are you doing?" I ask.
"Just looking. I didn't know you had magazines."
"My dad brought me a bunch from his work. I don't read them but they make for good-"
I suddenly realize that a draft for a love note I was writing is in one of those magazines. That's where I hid it...
"Hey. You should go to Stripe. He misses you." I try to get him away from the note.
"Oh! Right." He throws the magazines down and the note flies out.
I quickly snatch it up and crumple it.
Tweek raises an eyebrow. "Was that a love note?"
"..."
"It was!! Why didn't you tell me and the others that you have a crush? You never open up to us about this stuff."
"It's not important..."
He takes Stripe from his cage and gently pets him. Stripe always looked best in Tweeks arms. "Craig, we are your friends. You can tell us anything."
"I was going to but it's a new crush." I lie.
"Oh? Do you want to tell me who it is?"
"I would rather keep that a secret for a bit..."
"If you insist..."
I sigh. My heart is pounding so fast that I feel like I might pass out. Why can't I just say that it's him?
