I'm Not Crazy. | Creek

°• ~ Part Twelve ~ •°

I stood there right in front of the mirror and stared at my swollen nose.

Craig turned me towards him then put a band-aid on my nose. After he did that, I looked over at the mirror again and stared. I look absolutely ridiculous..

I sighed out loud and leaned against the wall. "People are gonna judge me at school even m-more now." I mumbled.

"Fuck them. You look cute." Craig said as he cleaned up the mess he made.

I rolled my eyes and looked out the window while hugging myself.

I kept getting memories of the things Craig's dad kept saying. Those words he said..

The thought of it made my eyes teary.

Craig stood next to me and bumped his elbow against my arm. "Hey, don't let that asshole get to you."

I slowly shook my head as I wiped my eyes. "I'm just tired I guess."

Craig nodded as he opened the bathroom door. "Get some rest."

I nodded my head then left the bathroom and went to my bedroom. Craig followed after me.

Once we were both in my bedroom, I was already in bed with a blanket over myself.

I thought of something and looked over at him. "You're n-not leaving right?"

He stood there beside my bed then shook his head.

I lifted the blanket for him, waiting for him to lay with me.

"You need to get sleep also." I said to him.

He kicked his shoes off and laid right beside me.

I moved closer to him.

He wrapped his arms around me and held me tightly in his arms.

As I cuddled up to him, it didn't take me long to fall asleep.

I opened my eyes and realized I wasn't in my bedroom anymore.. I quickly sat up and realized I was in an abandoned building.

"What the hell is going on!?"

"Tweek.."

I looked over and seen a beaten Craig who laid there on the ground with blood all over his body and on the ground.

I couldn't believe what I was seeing. "CRAIG!?" I shouted as I tried to run to him, but then ended up falling to the ground.

I looked down at my ankle and seen a chain around it.

I tried to get it off, but it wasn't helping. I looked over at Craig. "Cr-"

I heard a evil laugh.

I looked and seen Craig's dad slapping a bat against his hand.

"Watch me take care of your boyfriend, Tweek." He grinned widely.

My breathing quickened.

"P-Please don't." I begged while crying. "Please don't!"

He walked towards Craig.

Craig tried to crawl towards me.

"PLEASE!" I shouted as I tried to also crawl to Craig.

He raised the bat with both hands in the air and slammed it down.

I screamed Craig's name.

"TWEEK WAKE UP!"

I quickly opened my eyes and sat up. I looked around my room, then at Craig.

He stared at me with a terrified face.

I was so glad it was only a nightmare. It felt so real.. I bawled my eyes out as I grabbed his face. "C-Craig your okay?!"

He lifted a brow. "Of course I'm okay.. The question is, are you okay?"

Instead of answering, I kept crying as I quickly crawled on top of him and hugged him tightly.

He hugged me and kissed my head. "Everything's okay Tweek."

I buried my face into his neck and closed my eyes.

If that bastard thinks he'll do anything to Craig, he has another thing coming.

-------------------

I laid there and stared up at the ceiling as I listened to Craig's cute snores. I gently played with his hair since he fell asleep with his head on my chest.

The thought of him going back to his house and seeing his dad just made me sick to my stomach.

Or when his dad kicked him out..

I couldn't even imagine what else happened.

All I wanted to do was protect him.

When I felt Craig's arm tighten around my waist, it made me feel a lot better.

I smiled a little and gently kissed his head.

I don't know why, but the image of him and his girlfriend came to my head.

I shook my head.

He's here with you, not her.

I looked down at him.

I slowly pushed his hair out of his face.

I don't want to lose him.

I pressed my face against the top of his head and closed my eyes while listening to his light little snores.

I wrapped my arms around his neck and eventually fell asleep.
