Work Text:
It was a frigidly cold Friday night in which Tweek and Craig decided it would be best to stay bundled up together in Craig’s bed. Tweek earlier that day arrived with his favorite fluffy blue blanket and a couple of DVDs that he wanted to watch with Craig. Craig could never deny Tweek’s requests, so that’s exactly what the pair were doing when Tweek began to hum a familiar tune. Craig moved his glaze from the Teenage Mutant Nija Turtle movie to Tweek who continued to hum the tune.
“Eres” Craig spoke up, and Tweek looked at him confused with a tilt to his head.
“Eres?” Tweek parroted back in question.
Craig rapidly nodded as he reached for his phone, “the song you’re humming Is Eres by Café Tacvba.” He scrolled through his phone until he found said song. Craig watched as Tweek’s eyes lit up upon hearing the first chords of the song.
“You play this song a lot in your car.” Tweek commented, before he began to hum to the playing song. He closed his eyes and swayed side-to-side letting himself get enveloped by the song.
“Guilty. I really like this song.” Craig did play this song often. It was one of his all-time favorite songs.
“Me too, but I have no idea what he’s saying, but it sounds…lovely.”
Lovely, that sure was a way to describe the song.
“Pero lo que hoy siento es que sin ti estoy muerto, pues eres.” Craig began to sing along with the song. With a flushed face he reached over to intertwine his hand with Tweek’s. Tweek watched Craig in awe as he continued to sing softly. “Lo que mas quiero en este mundo, eso eres…”
When the song ended Tweek gave Craig a round of applause with a huge smile on his face. “I have no idea what you just said, but it sounded amazing” he gushed happily as he laid his head on Craig’s shoulder. Craig chuckled before he pressed a quick kiss on Tweek’s forehead.
“It’s a love song, like a head over heels love song.”
“Noted.”
When Tweek proposed years later down the line, Craig was obviously ecstatic. He was practically crying when he scooped Tweek into his arms blubbering “Yes!” over-and-over again. He kissed every inch of Tweek’s face, and Tweek just giggled happily. With trembling hands Tweek slid the ring onto Craig’s finger. Craig beamed down at it before he looked up at Tweek. “I do have one condition.” The blond stilled like a statue, and he gave Craig a slightly concerned look. “It’s nothing bad, my love.” He moved to place a reassuring kiss on Tweek’s cheek. “I want to pick the song that we have our first dance too.”
Tweek let out a sigh of relief, “Alright, I accept these grueling conditions”, Craig next to him snickered.
Maybe, just maybe Tweek should have seen it coming. When the familiar tune rang through the event hall, he should have known that Craig, his now dashing husband, would pick this song. “Eres.” Tweek sang with the song. Craig grinned, elated that he quickly caught on to the song of his choice. He twirled Tweek and then brought him back close to him. “I should have known you’d pick this song.”
“This song’s lyrics express exactly how I feel about you.”
Tweek smirked, “oh yeah? You’re head-over-heels in love with me?”
“Always.” Craig placed a kiss on his husband’s lips. “Lo que la gente promete cuando se quiere. Mi salvación, Mi esperanza y Mi fe…” Craig sang the words like a promise. His eyes never once looked away from Tweek’s increasingly flushed face. He was being honest when he said that the song explained exactly how he felt about the blond. Tweek is his everything, his salvation, his hope, and his faith.
It was Tweak’s turn to flush red at Craig’s explicit devotion towards him. With a shakey breath he clenched tightly onto Craig’s hands holding him like a lifeline as he began to whisper the lyrics to Craig, “Lo que mas cuido en este mundo eso eres…”
“You know the lyrics to the song.” Craig blinked in surprise. He was not expecting for Tweek to sing along with him.
“of course I do. It’s your favorite song.”
Yep, Craig was definitely in love forever with Tweek.
