Craig's POV
I get home and drop my bag, going to the TV and turning on Red Racer, as I do every day once I get home. I curl up on the couch and put my thumb in my mouth, out of habit because I'm a child. There a knock at the door, and I don't move. The knock happens again and I hear footsteps from behind the couch and the door opens, I don't pay attention, the show is too good.
"Oh hello Stan!" Mom exclaims from behind me
"Hello, Mrs. Tucker, is Craig here? Is he okay?" I hear Stan's voice
"Oh yes, he's right over there, please, come in" Mom responds, a few seconds later Stan is standing in front of me.
I groan "You're blocking the view of the TV..."
"You weren't responding to my texts, I was worried" Stan says
"I'm watching my show babe..." I try to look past him, flipping to the other side and putting my thumb back in my mouth and watch the TV.
"Craig just pause it..." Stan says
"I can't pause it because it's live TV" I respond,
"You're cute with your thumb in your mouth" Stan admits
"Shh stop distracting me let me watch my show." I hold my index finger up at him then put my thumb back in my mouth, cuddling into the arm of the couch. Stan sighs and moves, I then feel myself being moved forward as the back of the couch is replaced by Stan's body and his arm is wrapped around me.
"I'm gonna watch your show with you." Stan states
"Mmm okay..." I answer, pushing myself against him and cuddling into him as we watch the rest of the show together

Stan's POV
After school I do as I have grown into the habit of doing everyday. Going home, texting Craig, and going over to his house because he's too busy watching red racer to text me, well... he's gotten better at texting me while watching the show, so I haven't been going over there recently. Today is different though, I'm just coming over unannounced. I knock on the door, and as usual, Mrs Tucker answers.
"Hello Stan, here for Craig?" She asks, she knows the drill as well.
"Yes, is he watching red racer?" I ask
"Oh not today, he's up in his room right now, you can go on up." She steps to the side to let me in, I smile and go inside, taking off my shoes, Craig's house has become my second home, when my dads drunk and him and my mom fight I come here, then Craig and I cuddle until we fall asleep. His parents are very nice and usually stay up just encase I drop by because of my parents. They're very nice to me and I'm grateful to have such a good relationship with my boyfriends parents. I go up to his room and open the door. He doesn't hear me come in. He's too busy looking at his toys and playing with them, making sound effects with them and speaking for the little guys inside the cars, I have failed to mention that they're red racer toys, small cars with the characters in them, and he has bigger forms of the characters which he pretends gets out of the cars to hit each other around, at least that's what it looked like. Craig still plays with toys? He's fifteen... that's so cute.
"I would expect the other kind of playing with yourself." I wink at him, as soon as he hears my voice he tenses up and looks over at me, his face turning red.
"How long have you been there?" Craig asks
"Long enough to know that youre playing with your red racer toys" I answer, he's quick to swipe his forearm against the carpet, knocking the toys under his bed.
"I don't know what you're talking about." Craig states, I sigh and get completely into the room, shutting the door behind me and sitting on the ground across from him.
"You're So fucking cute. Did you know that?" I ask
Craig giggles nervously "You're cute too... what are you doing here?" He asks
"I wanted to see my boyfriend, is that so bad?" I answer
"I suppose not, I like seeing you too" Craig responds, crawling over and sitting on my lap, wrapping his legs around my waist and hugging me, his head going onto my shoulder.
"Are you gonna let me play with you?" I ask
He looks up at me and glares "I'm done playing for now." He answers
"Some other time then."
"Highly unlikely"
He kisses my cheek, then stands up, pulling me with him "Are you having troubles at home right now dear?"
"Not that I know of, I just wanted to come by, waste my time with you..." I answer
"Okay" he smiles and gives me an Eskimo kiss, which I happily return. He thinks for a moment, blushes deeply and takes my hand, pulling me downstairs and going to both of his parents.
"Mom..? Dad..?" Craig starts
"What is it sweetie?" Mom asks
Craig looks down with a deep red blush as he turns to stand across from me. My head cocks to the side slightly and that just gives him more access for when he leans forward and presses his lips to mine, his eyes closing, so mine do the same as I kiss back, feeling slightly awkward, why did he have to do this in front of his parents? Did they want to see it? Does he want them to get a picture of it? That'd be slightly weird... but I'd still want the picture, he pulls away and looks back to his parents, his cheeks a fiery red.
"There... Theres your proof..." I'll have to ask him what he means by that when we're back upstairs.
"Oh." His Dad says looking back at the tv, his mom gets up and rushes over to the two of us, hugging us.
"Oh I'm so proud of my babies!" She exclaims, I blush slightly, as we all share a big group hug. She pulls away, still excited. My hands go back to my sides.
"Can someone explain to me what just happened?" I ask
"My parents were questioning if I really liked you or not... because I didn't really act like it from what they saw. So this was the only way I could get the message across that... well... I love you" Craig shrugs and looks down, his face is heating up by the second. I lean over and kiss his cheek "guess what?" I ask "I love you too" I respond in a whisper, he giggles and hugs my side, so my arm wraps around him.
"I hope you're in our family for a long time, Stan." His mom tells me
"I'm... I'm in your family?" I ask
"Do you want to be?" She asks
"I'm just surprised... I'm glad to be though, it's an honor." I answer, kissing the top of Craig's head
"Let's go upstairs Stanny" Craig says, I nod and pull away from the hug. "No don't let go!" He complains
"I have to if we're going upstairs" I respond
"Carry me." He softly demands
"Carry you?" I ask
"Pretty please?" He begs softly, he acts like such a child, but he manages to be cute while he does it. I pick him up, he wraps his legs and arms around me. I carry him up to his room and put him on his bed, he gets under the covers and motions for me to do the same, I do. He cuddles me and sighs happily.
"Y'know... kissing you is nice" Craig giggles
"Kissing you is nice too, Craig" I respond, he's better than I thought he would be, soft and sweet.
"Let's nap now." He states
"You comfy then?" I ask
"Yes. Now sleep." He demands in a giggle
"Yes sir." I respond, holding him and falling asleep with him in my arms.
