***** Hey guys if my any chance you're reading this can I ask if you comment stuff just so I know people are interested I'm trying my best and I'm having a lot of fun writing this so yeah thanks*****

"So... who is it..." Craig peered down at Kenny's wrist.

It was Kenny McCormick's 16th birthday and the day the name of his soulmate would appear on his right wrist. It happened to everyone; the trouble was finding them.

"B...Butters" Kenny trembled as he fell back onto craigs couch next to Stan, Kyle and Clyde who were also in the room.

"Wait you're gay?" Kyle looked confused.

"Obviously, Kenny's gay Kyle, keep up" Stan laughed

"What are you going to do" Clyde who had been quiet in the last hour leading up to midnight in anxiety finally spoke up.

"I mean you're not going to tell him are you?" Craig asked.

"No Craig! He needs to tell him!" Stan who was clearly getting caught up in the romance said.

"I mean Butters birthday is next week he's going to find out soon anyways" said kyle

"But what if Kenny isn't Butters soulmate?" Craig glared at kyle

This appeared to be too much for Kenny as he ran for the front door swinging it closed behind him but not slamming it as to not wake up Craigs parents and sister.

"Kenny, wait!" called Stan and Kyle in unison as they too followed him out the door leaving Craig and Clyde sitting on the coach.

"well that was dramatic" craig sighed as he took off his hat and rubbed his brow.

"I mean it's a stressful time for everyone right now" Clyde said not looking up from the floor

"Clyde, are you still upset that Bebe doesn't want to be with you" craig looked down at him

"obviously, I'm sad craig! She's my soulmate and she doesn't even want to be with me!" Clyde began to tear up.

"She will change her mind, I promise, she's just in denial" Craig was looking for the right words to say in this moment

"in denial about what? Am I not good enough!" Clyde was in full tear and snot break down mode

"She doesn't want to grow up. She wants to live while she's young, but she does love you" Craig put his arm around his friend

"Thanks bro. I'm sure you will have more luck with your soulmate" Clyde who was beginning to calm down smiled at Craig

"I'm going to bed" Craig stood up "You're welcome to stay over if you want" Craig put his arm out to pull up a still saddened Clyde

"Thanks, but I think I'm going to go home" Clyde sniffled

"okay be safe craig smiled as he led Clyde to the front door and closed it softly after he left.

Every other day it seemed a new person was finding their soulmate and craig was growing impatient his birthday was only 3 days away but months of hiding his nervous and shutting out his fears began to catch up with him pretty quickly as after he closed the door he felt a weight fall into his chest followed by the strongest urge to burst into tears.

This wasn't like me- Craig thought as he shook his head and ran to his bedroom getting changed from his usual blue button up fleece and dark blue jeans into his cotton black and blue NASA pyjamas that his uncle had bought him for Christmas and curling into bed. He looked at the clock it was 1AM on a Monday.

SHIT- Craig thought to himself forgetting he had school tomorrow. He tried his hardest to fall asleep, but the fear was eating him alive.

He got up and walked over to his window which overlooked his street he looked at the houses to see who was awake, to no surprise every light on the street was off. Darkness. Except that was for one light that shone across the road and 5 houses down to the right. The light was dim, but it was still there from behind the green curtains of the room. Craig knew who was awake. It was his old friend Tweek Tweaks house. He knew from elementary school that Tweek didn't sleep much, I guess some things never change craig thought.

This began a whole new thought. What ever happed to their friendship. This seemed to take his mind off his worries. Thinking about elementary school and how simple and fun everything was.

Tweek and craig were best friends. Tweek, Clyde, Token and Jimmy made up a group simply known as Craig and those guys by their classmates. In middle school things changed though. Their little group split Craig, Clyde and Token all fell into the popular cloud and it just so happed they couldn't take Tweek and Jimmy with them. Tweek and Jimmy never resented Token, Clyde and Craig for leaving them to be popular as they understood they simply had different priorities. Tweek and jimmy spend all of middle school getting perfect grades as well as high school, While Clyde and Craig went to parties and got through school by copying off people to get by. Token however got good grades and was popular as his best friends were popular as well has his girlfriend- and soulmate- Nichole being the star cheerleader for their school's cheer squad. Clyde, Token and Craig despite being popular never conformed to sitting at the popular kids table at lunch or went out their way to hang out with them too much they stayed a trio for most the day except for when they linked up with Kenny, Stan, Kyle and Cartman.

Tweek and Jimmy started their own group, the two of them butters and Pip sat in the far corner of the lunch hall away from as many prying eyes as possible.

Craig now had the feeling of guilt as well as the fear and nerves he was feeling previously weighing on him. The urge to cry came straight back and Craig let a tear or two fall as he looked up at the stars.

"Fuck this man" Craig sighed as he wiped his tears and brow again. He looked over to the Tweak residence to see a silhouette standing against the curtains.

Craigs eyes opened wide, secretly hoping he would open them and see him sitting by the window so he wouldn't feel as alone.

The curtains moved and for a split second craig saw his old friend. Tweek immediately was craig by his window and freaked out throwing the curtains closed and diving out of the way of the window and shutting off his light. Now the whole street was dark. Craig sighed and got into bed and reached for his phone. He had a text from Kenny:

Kenny- Hi sorry 4 2nite I got a bit emotional ill TTY 2morrow

Craig – all good bro hope you're okay

Kenny - thx

He shut off his phone and closed his eyes. It's going to be okay.
