The Stabber

chapter 4

Craig POV

The next day.

I had not been able to sleep the night before. I was far too busy trying to figure out how to patch things up with Tweek.

I sat in my room, eyes wide open and thinking.

Was it a lost cause?

Had I just lost Tweek to this, nobody?

The mere though upset me far more than I wanted it to...

I wanted to fix things between me and tweek. So I decided to go to his house. I left the cabin and went to go to tweek's house.

I approached Tweek's mushroom house with great caution.

I didn't want to see Tweek again, only to have to leave after another hurtful argument.

But maybe I could maybe fix things this time...

I went to the window and knocked on it.

Craig: "Tweek. Open up, I'm here."

Then the window opens slowly, and I see tweek in his sleeping gown that was stripes of green and lime.

Tweek: "What the? Craig, it's 2:00 in the morning, aren't you supposed to be sleeping ?"

Craig: "I know that.

But we... need to talk. Please. Can I come in?"

Tweek: "um yeah sure?"

Craig stepped into the mushroom house.

Once inside, I was immediately hit with the smell of a warm, cozy place.

I had always liked it here, too.

Craig: "I... I want to fix things."

My voice sounded quiet and sincere. I really wanted things to be good once again.

Craig: "I never meant to hurt you, Tweek. I mean it... I don't think you're boring. I've just... been feeling so unimportant...

...to you. I wanted your attention... I didn't want you to have a new 'best friend'."

I stopped for a second and took a deep breath. I'd thought about this all night and wanted to explain it the best way possible.

Craig: "I... I just want to matter to you the most. That's all."

With that, I went silent. I didn't have anything else to say.

I just wanted Tweek's response. What did Tweek think? If I could hear him out, then maybe I could repair the friendship...

Tweek: "You wanted attention?"

Craig: "Y-yes."

I looked down. And I didn't want to explain it anymore.

Craig: "What's wrong with that? I thought we were close. I wanted that to stay true. I'm sorry that I've been so mean lately, just... I don't know what came over me... but I didn't mean any of it."

My eyes began to water a little.

Craig: "I wanted to matter to you..."

Tweek POV

I saw craig crying for the first time. He may be heartless and rude, but on the inside, he just wants love that he never got when he was little. He told me a long time ago his parents and sister died from a fire and he had to be alone for so long.

I had to forgive him. Even if he's gonna do it again.

Tweek: "Oh, craig.." I grabbed craig face

Craig was surprised by my suddenness. He hadn't expected me to be physical. But he knew that was always my thing.
