Tweek POV:

I hate this! God, if there was a way to die of embarrassment, I would be dead right now! "I-It's not what you think!" I tried to convince them, but clearly, they weren't buying it. I tugged on my hair, I could feel the pressure on my scalp, but I didn't care at all. I could hear other parents talking to each other, and this just made me want to disappear. The voices bled together as I breathed heavily, shutting my eyes. 'Please be a dream!' I thought. My heart pounded in my chest. "Hey, chill out" I heard a voice as I felt hands grab my wrists lightly.

I opened one of my eyes, looking towards the direction of the voice. It was Craig. 'Why him? Why out of all people, him? Why out of everyone does he care?' I thought. I opened my other eye, looking at him. "Let go of your hair dude" he almost whispered. 'How? How is he so calm? How is he not freaking out about this? How does he not hate me?' thoughts filled my head.

For some reason, my body followed his orders. I let go of my hair as I looked at him. For a moment, all my worries went away. I felt his hands lower my arms as he looked at me. I noticed a hint of worry in his gleaming emerald eyes. He let go of my wrists as I heard awes. I looked to the side, feeling myself tremble a bit as a few people looked at us. "Aren't they just adorable?" I heard one voice, followed by another "Their parents must be so proud!". I sighed, knowing it was useless to try and get them to stop now. I just wanted to leave this dumb party. 


Craig POV:

I heard Tweek sigh. God, parents are so annoying, never listening to their kids and not doing anything to voice their concerns. I just wanted to leave, being here just made me feel bad. Then I remembered, I still had my skates on. Damn it, I left my shoes at the pond near the log. "Hey dude, I'll be right back, forgot my shoes at the pond," I said, resting my hand on Tweek's shoulder as I walked off, the skates dragging down my feet. I pushed my way through the trees, feeling snow start to lightly fall. Dang it, now once it melts I'm going to be all wet...

I sighed. I saw my shoes, I quickly grabbed them and dusted the snow off them. I started walking back as I heard the branches move. Out stumbled Tweek. Why did he come to the pond?

I heard him breathing heavily. "S-sorry! They just kept going on and on! I couldn't handle the pressure!" he tugged on his shirt. I sighed, "It's fine, we'll figure out something, I doubt we can tell them we aren't dating. Well, tell them and they believe us that is". Tweek nodded, shaking a little bit. "Well, we have to do something! I don't wanna be known in school as the gay kid!" he said. "Me neither. Tomorrow, let's meet at my house, and we'll discuss a plan," I told him. "God you sound like an old man," he said under his breath. Then he realized I heard him. "PLEASE D-DON'T BEAT ME UP!" he said. I chuckled at him, he wasn't wrong.

"Craig! Tweek?" I heard a voice call. I turned towards the voice, it was Tweek's mother. Tweek also heard her and turned towards her. "There you are honey" she smiled, pushing past the branches. "It's time to go home, say goodbye to Craig" she continued, looking at me fondly. Great, she believed that we were dating just like all the other adults. "Tomorrow at noon good?" Tweak asked. I nodded in response.

I looked up at his hair, noticing a few specks of snow. I snorted, he looked like a spiky Pomeranian that had recently gotten into the flour. I left it there, I'm sure he wouldn't mind. I watched as he walked away, following close behind his mother.

"Tomorrow at noon" I muttered to myself. I looked up at the sky, snow falling. Just beyond it, I could see the stars. Though they are billions upon trillions of miles away, they still shine brightly. I wonder, what was the first thing to ever exist? Surely, with time being a concept, there was a time when everything was blank, right? No, that wouldn't make sense because things don't just come from nowhere, right..? Something had to have always existed, but how? Has everything just always existed all the time? Time... it's just a concept we created. So, the world was gas, so that means we had to have come from somewhere, right? There's no way we are just gas. There is no way that everything here is gas. So everything on Earth is just from space? From a distant world, somewhere. Everything is an alien? How could everything never existed at the same time it had to have existed?

Ah, brain fart. "Craig!" I heard a voice call for me. I could tell it was my father. I clenched my shoes in my hand, running from the pond. I hope one day I work as an Astronaut, so I can see what really came first. Huh, it's like the chicken and the egg, except the chicken and the egg never existed before everything. Yet everything existed before, but what came first? "Craig, come on! It's snowing and you're gonna get sick!" I heard my mother yell. "Coming!" I shouted, looking up at the Stars. They're so pretty.
