Tweek had been very busy the pass week. His parents had gone out of town and forced him to keep the coffee shop running. Since it was the only and best coffee shop in town, it was too much for just a sixteen year old boy.
Craig noticed this. Tweek had not told him why he was stressed though. He didn't want to worry anyone. He didn't want help either.
Tweek, Craig, Clyde, Token and Jimmy were having a sleepover at Tokens. It wasn't easy for them to convince Tweek to go to the sleepover though.
"Guys let's play some games!" Clyde happily said loudly. "C-can you be a-any l-louder?" Jimmy stuttered. Token rolled his eyes. "He'll have his little moments" Token chirped in. "Hey!" Clyde responded a little upset.
Craig and Tweek not chiming into any of the conversions or games. They just sat together with their hands intertwined. Tweek had to admit it was really nice.
He couldn't remember the last time he had even been around Craig without school being involved. He felt really happy. He also felt really lucky that Craig didn't hate him for it.
Pretty soon it was time for bed. Everyone had sleeping bags except Token and Clyde.
Craig had gotten a huge sleeping bag so the two boys could cuddle. They had never slept together before however, Craig wanted to try and who would Tweek be to say no.
He was pretty twitchy though because of all the coffee he had to drink to keep him awake. Craig noticed this and wondered.
He made sure everyone was asleep before saying, "Tweek. What's wrong, you've been stressed this whole week." Craig said calmly. Tweek tried to pretend he was asleep but he wasnt doing it well.
"Tweek I'm not gonna get mad. Even if you did something bad." Craig assured as he wrapped his arms around the back of Tweek head so they faced each other.
"I-I.." Tweek started. He was nervous but he knew he had to get it off his chest before he explodes. "M-my parents h-have been out o-of town and I-I h-have been t-taking care of t-the coffee shop m-myself" Tweek whispered but screamed at the same time. He wasn't even a ounce sleepy yet. He could last a whole another three hours before coming close to sleep.
"Tweek you should have told me. I would have came to help" Craig said worried and also trying to calm the boy down. Craig's voice seemed to do that to Tweek.
Craig sat up and looked through his bag. He had some sleep pills for when Tweek couldn't sleep. He knew he should always have them on him. He grabbed a bottle of water and two pills before giving both to the blonde.
Tweek looked at them for a second in his hand before smiling. He put the pills quickly in his back throat so he couldn't taste them and drank some water to flush them down.
After a few minutes he was starting to feel a little sleepy. He sat the water down and laid back down with Craig. "Just remember if you ever need help with anything.. Don't be at all afraid to ask. Alright babe?" Craig said softly trying to keep his eyes open.
Tweek nodded and they both fell asleep cuddling eachother. When Tweek awoke the next day, he saw Craig trying to tackle Clyde because he supossedly took a photo of the two sleeping.
