4 I'll guard you | tweek tweak

You were awoke from the night as your phone went off, buzzing loudly against the table. You had set it on vibrate but forgot to turn it completely off for the night. You groaned and grabbed it from the table, pressing the answer button and mumbling into the phone.

"Hello?" You spoke in a raspy voice. You heard a loud clang from the other end and jumped, which woke you up more than you already were. "Hello?" You repeated, this time louder and clearer.

"[Name]!" A voice shouted from the other line. You immediately recognised who it was. Tweek Tweak. One of your best and closest friends. You sighed, waiting for him to speak.

"S-Sorry to w-w-wake you so l-late. I j-just g-g-got really f-fr-freaked out." He continued, his anxiousness clear through the phone. Though, this is how he usually acted, you could tell he was even more freaked out than usual.

"Tweek, it's four AM. What freaked you out so much you had to wake me up and call me? And what was that loud noise I heard?"

"Oh." He paused. "I...d-dropped the ph-phone...anyway! [Name]! Listen to me! The underpants gnomes! They're a-after me again!"

This again. He had spoke of these 'underpants gnomes' on numerous occasions. You wanted to believe him about this, but you just couldn't given the fact you had never actually seen the things.

"P-please come over. I'm r-really fr-freaked out." He sounded desperate.

You sighed once more and slowly got out of the comfort of your bed. You wouldn't do this for just anyone at four AM. "I'll be right over, Tweek. Hang in there until I get there, okay?"

"O-okay!" He said quickly. You hung up your cell phone and put it back on the table. You slowly trudged downstairs, slipped on your jacket and shoes and walked out the door, heading to Tweek's.

Once you got there, you carefully opened the door. It had been unlocked. Tweek had probably unlocked it when you said you were coming over. You slowly walked to Tweek's room, trying to be quiet, as to not wake his parents. You stepped into his room to find him there, sitting on his bed, drinking coffee, and twitching quite a lot. More than normal.

"Well I'm here." You said lightly, shutting his door and taking a seat next to him. "Where are the bastards? I'll make them pay for scaring you and basically waking me up."

"T-they're g-g-gone." Tweek whispered. "F-for now.."

You looked at him and took his coffee, setting it on the table. "It's a bit late for that, don't you think?"

"B-b-But I-."

You cut him off. "No, Tweek, you need to lay down. It's late. Try and get some rest, will you?"

"I c-can't s-s-sleep, [Name]. Y-you know t-that. No m-matter how h-h-hard I t-try I just c-can't."

You put a finger on your chin and thought. "Hm, what would make you fall asleep?"

"I.." Tweek paused to think as well. "D-don't know.."

"How about I stay with you and promise to guard you of any gnomes or anything else that tried to get you? Will you be able to rest then?"

"M-maybe." He answered, looking at you.

"Alright then. Lay down." You commanded, and he complied, laying down on the bed. You laid down beside him and pulled the covers over both of you. You snuggled up as close as you could to Tweek.

"G-Goodnight [Name]. Oh, and... t-thank you." Tweek piped up, in a way more calmer voice than usual.

"No problem. Night, Tweek." You simply replied.

Tweek actually slept that night. Better than he had in a long time. And it was all because of [Name].
