Craig's P.O.V.

What?
What the hell?
Why?
Hah, I should have known.
He never really liked me, I mean, you don't get over someone that fast!
Yeah, yeah, make out with my best friend even though you literally said, you loved me a week ago.
I didn't even care about apologizing anymore!
No, I didn't even care about Tweek anymore and his love life had nothing to do with me.

Since school was over after this singing competition, I immediately went home and threw my bag in the living room.
"Hello honey, how was the competition?", my mom asked.
I rolled my eyes. As if my parents cared.
"Clyde won."
She sighed and smiled at me.
"Sorry, to hear that, Craig. Next time, you'll win."
Quietly I nodded, not believing any word coming out of her mouth.

The steps I walked up my room were heavy and I could feel puddles of sadness following me. Why was I sad though?
I slumped in my bed and hugged this huge pillow I got on my 12th birthday. It was from my family showing a picture of all of us printed on it.
Then I remembered the necklace, Tweek was wearing. 'Clyde + Tweek', it said.
Dis-fucking-gusting.

"Tch."
"Bro, you alright?", I heard a deep voice saying. It was my friend, Token.
"Do I look alright to you?"
"Not really", Token nervously laughed, "but you just tch-ed!"
Letting out a little chuckle, I hugged my pillow and buried my face in there.
"You wouldn't understand", I whispered.
"I'm not pushing you, but I'm always here, got it? And I would do everything to see Craig Tucker cry."
Again, a nervous laughter.
As I hid myself under the blanket I sighed.

"What do you want anyway?"
Token scratched his head and gave me a dorky grin.
"Lend me your video game?"
I was too tired to get angry, so I stood up, took all my video games and threw them at Token, causing him to swear.
"The hell?"
"Take them."
I could see the stars in his eyes, or at least imagined them, but he took as many as he could carry and stuffed them under his clothes.
"See you, Craig. And cheer up."
As I waved him goodbye, my eyelids began to close.

When my alarm clock rang, I let out a loud 'urgh..' And stood up, immediately tripped, of course.
After the 'urgh' a 'fuck this' followed.
As if the day couldn't have gotten any worse, I saw Tweek and Clyde holding hands in the hallway, that almost made me puke.
I may have exchanged some glances with Clyde, but well.
Honestly, how dare he?
As a best friend, shouldn't he be with me?
Bros before hoes?
I guess our friendship was worthless to him.

In the cafeteria, I sat on a table with Token, with a fantastic view on Clyde's and Tweek's table.
A fantastic view on them having so much fun.
They even shared their lunch, how disgusting was that?
"Dude, you're rolling your eyes. For the sixth time. Do you even realize?"
I rolled my eyes for the seventh time, as I saw Clyde patting Tweek's head.
And Tweek was even enjoying it!
Uhm, excuse me, I thought you were in love with me?

Why was I bothered by this shit?
I mean, isn't this what I wanted?
Technically I made this happen, but who would have thought, Tweek would move on this fast?
I decided to talk about it.. With Clyde of course.

Me: we need to talk dude

Clyde👽: Why?

Me: about Tweek

Clyde👽: My boyfriend? Again, why?

Me: oh ur together. Yea, please

Clyde👽: ..k. After school. Come to my house at 5 p.m.

Was this really a good idea?

At 5 p.m., I showed up at his door and as expected, he opened.
"My parents are overseas. Come in", he welcomed.
As I stepped in, I was surprised, he kept the house so clean.
"Sooo..", I decided to break the awkwardness, "you guys are officially together now?"
He quietly nodded and took a gulp of the chocolate milk he had in his hand.
I held up my hand and showed him a awkward thumbs up.
