Tweek's POV

Craig and I left South Park very early this morning. The drive to Aspen takes about 2 hours and a half without traffic, and now we are driving through downtown, heading to the hotel he booked for our weekend getaway. The scenery is... breathtaking! The whole city is very upscale, full of luxurious and high-end shops and restaurants. I can't believe I am actually here. I mean, this place is posh as hell! I can't believe Craig can afford all this.

To be frank, before we started dating, I've never wondered how much money he makes. I just assumed he was doing well because he had a well-paid salary. I didn't know he is investing the money in stocks... When he said "I have extra money on the side" I didn't expected to be this much...

I also have never seen him buying frivolous stuff nor showing his belongings off in front of me and the guys. Craig is the type that keeps things to himself. I've known him since we were kids and I am kinda impressed how good he is at being an adult. I, on the other hand, feel like I haven't changed at all. I'm happy to be with him, but am I good enough?

Mmh...

....

I've never asked him why he likes me.

I'm pretty sure I was annoying the shit out of him with the whole blackmailing thing... But, we ended up together.

What does he like about me...?

"Tweek" Craig's voice breaks the silence inside the car, snapping me out of my thoughts, "are you ok?"

"Oh! Yeah! I... I'm just looking at all this!" I reply frantically, leaning my back against the car seat, turning to face him. "This is awesome!"

"It sure is. I think I'll enjoy it this time" Craig chuckles as he pulled into the hotel.

"This time?" I raise a brow at him

"I was here last year to collect some datas on constellation and irregularities" Craig says with a shrug, "I was too tired to enjoy the outing with my team... So I mostly spent time working and sleeping."

"Oh, so, it was work related" I nod after hearing his explanation. Feeling relieved, for some reason.

"What?" Craig parks the car right in front of the valet booth that is by the hotel's entrance. He looks at me with a smirk, "you thought I came here with someone else?"

"N-No... I.. did not.." I blink quickly, stuttering my way out of an awkward conversation, "L... let's go check-in"

I open the door and I hear Craig's chuckle. I decide to let it go and get out the car. The valet greets me, then he turns to greet Craig, who walks around the front of the car and hands him the key. The valet opens the trunk and takes our luggages out. I pull out my wallet and tip the kind looking worker. He takes the cash and thanks me.

The valet walks to the driver side, gets inside the car, and takes off toward the garage. I turn to look at the door and see the bellboy walking towards us. He greets us with a warm smile and takes out luggages. Wow. I've never been served like this before even stepping inside the hotel. I feel Craig's hand grabbing mine and he leads me inside.

Wow.

Just... Wow.

This place is nice. This is at least a four stars hotel. So many people in the lobby... They all dressed so nicely, making me feel out of place. There's also a piano man playing some soothing classical music in the background.

We walk to the check in counter and I let Craig do the talking.

"Hi, my name is Craig Tucker, and I like to check in" Craig says to the worker, taking out his driver's license and credit card. "I know it's early but I wanted to check if you have the room ready for us"
