"Craig... Craig?"

I stare forward. There is no way that just happened. Did Clyde give me the wrong locker?

I am going to kill him.

"Craig!" Tweek snaps his fingers in front of my face.

"Oh... sorry."

"Are you okay? You look really pale. Will you be able to work?"

"Yeah. Its nothing. Let's go."

As Tweek and I walk to the cafe, I realize something. I'm actually kinda glad that I messed that up. If he had rejected me, this would be awkward. Maybe this is the best choice. I just never tell him and keep things as they are.

"Look! It's one of those air control planes! You used to love those, didn't you?" Tweek smiles as he points at the sky.

No. I can't keep things as they are.

I am hopelessly in love with him.

We get to the shop and Tweek takes me to the back.

"These are our lockers. We put our personal belongings in here while we work."

"Okay. Is this one mine?"

I open a locker.

"Nope that's mine."

"That explains why there is stuff in it."

He has an apron and a small backpack in his locker.

"What's in the backpack?"

"Nothing!"

He quickly shuts the locker.

"Right... not suspicious at all, Tweek."

He hurries to open an empty locker. "This one is yours!"

"Damn. I keep getting lockers mixed up today..."

"What do you mean?"

"Nothing important..."

"If you say so."

He puts his apron on and hands me mine. "Uniform."

I take it and put it on myself. It's kinda nice, makes this all feel more official.

"My parents are leaving soon so we should get started on your training."

"Wait, your parents are already leaving? It's just gonna be us? And you're training me???"

"Yup!"

Oh god.
