It was Saturday. The day right after Craig Tucker, a small 2nd grade boy, got his braces.
He hated them, they were dark blue, and super uncomfortable. He couldn't even eat anything he wanted!
Craig would have rather had crooked teeth like his bestfriend Kenny McCormick.
There was only one good thing that has come from these metal fences around Craig's teeth.
His parents are finally letting him get a pet! Finally, after so many years!
Craig Tucker had always, ALWAYS, wanted a pet guinea pig.
Craig sped up, he was running towards the pet store, as fast as his skinny legs could take him.
Even though he was the tallest in his class, he was still short. He was a 2nd grader after all.
He turned around the corner, fast, almost skidding right into the pet store in front of him. Almost.
He grabbed a hold of the handle and whipped the door open. He was smiling so wide and hard, a satellite from space could see his braces.
He stopped in front of the front desk, his eyes barely skimming over the top of the counter.
"Hi! Where are the Guinea Pigs??" Craig asked, his braces giving him a slight lisp.
The employee didn't even look up from the magazine as he pointed all the way to the back of the store.
Craig though that was quite rude, so he flipped him off.
He didn't even notice so Craig just rolled his eyes and ran to the back of the store.
The stopped, staring in awe at the ground below him.
They had a big fenced in area full of rodents, big and small.
Craig thought it was quite impractical, though he was to happy to care.
Look at all of them! They were running and jumping, and playing!! Craig was in heaven.
Then he saw the most beautiful thing ever.
It was a big brown Guinea pig, with one white stripe down it's back.
Craig instantly fell in love.
He opened up the gate from his side and stepped into the enclosure.
He slowly and carefully made his way to the Guinea pig.
Craig bent down and placed his hand on the Guinea pig. It was so soft!
Craig smiled and began petting the Guinea pig.
While Craig was petting the soft angel, his hand came across something very cold.
He looked down at the Guinea pig to see what his hand had stumbled on.
It was another hand, a very pale, twitchy hand.
He looked up to see a small, messy blonde haired boy on the other side of the Guinea pig.
"AH! I'm sorry!" The boy said as he pulled his hand away and closed his eyes tightly.
"Tweek?" Craig questioned as the small boy twitched frantically.
The boy opened his eyes and looked at Craig.
"Oh, hi Craig.." Tweek said as he began getting up.
"Where are you going?" Craig asked.
"I'm uh, gonna go find another Guinea pig." Tweek said, still twitching.
"Oh, ok." Craig said as he grabbed the Guinea pig.
Tweek started whipping his head around the enclosure, looking for another Guinea pig. Craig watched the smaller boy having no luck finding what he was looking for.
He began pulling at his blonde hair, mumbling something like, "This is to much pressure."
Craig stood up and handed the Guinea pig to Tweek.
Tweek grabbed the Guinea pig with a confused look on his face.
"I thought you wanted this one." Tweek said as he stroked the soft animal.
"But you want him too." Craig stated as he began walking away.
Tweek grabbed Craig's shoulder and turned spun him towards him.
"Uh, I have an idea.." Tweek said.
"Yeah.?" Craig replied.
"If you want, we could share him..." Tweek said. "But you don't have to if you don't want to."
"Yeah sure!" Craig happily replied.
Craig grabbed Tweeks free hand and smiled a huge smile.
"I like your braces." Tweek said a smile creeping on his face too.
"Thanks Tweek!" Craig said as he pulled Tweek through the encloser.
The two boys stood in front of the desk, hands still intertwined.
"Hey. We want this one." Craig said as Tweek put the Guinea pig on the counter.
"Do you two have the NECESSARY equipmant to care for this animal." The man said as he judgily looked the boys up and down.
Tweek looked at Craig and they nodded at each other.
"Fine, but only because your young. It's just a phase. I usually dont sell to people like you two." The employee stated as he looked back down at his magazine.
"What! People like us?!" Tweek said as he started shaking even harder. "What does that mean!"
"You know." He looked at the hands of the two boys. "People like you."
Tweek was still confused, but Craig understood. The man thought they were gay.
With his free hand, Craig flipped off the employee and threw the money at him.
The man scoffed as he picked the money off of the ground.
"Leave my store immediately! You gay hooligans!" The employee at stated as he stared daggers at the two boys.
Craig smirked, he had a plan.
He didn't know why, but he knew that he wanted to.
He turned to Tweek, he still had the confused look on his face.
Craig placed a small peck on Tweeks cheek and pulled him out of the pet store.
He heard the sounds of disgust coming from the store, but Craig didn't care, and Tweek didn't either.
They stopped in front of the store and Craig squeezed Tweeks hand.
They both looked at each other and smiled.
Craig wasn't gay.
And neither was Tweek.
They just liked each other, and now shared a pet.
Craig didn't think that sounded very gay.
And neither did Tweek.
"I call naming him! His name is Stripe!" Craig said, smiling super wide.
Tweek liked the sound of that.
