I race back to Craig's house, our house. It's not very far from Kenny's, but it takes more than ten minutes to get there, running full speed.

Once I do, I throw open the door, one hundred and twenty percent ready to confront Craig and let him know how I feel and what's been happening, but he's not there.

I search around the house looking for him. Room to room, top to bottom, left to right.

But he's nowhere. I couldn't remember whether or not he had to work today, so I was going to steal his tactic and wait on the couch for him to get home.

So, I waited. And waited. And waited...

"Tweek?" I felt drowse as I tried to blink open my eyes, "You shouldn't be sleeping down here."

I sat up nearly head butting Craig as he stumped backward nearly tripling and falling on his butt.

"Craig!" I shout, my voice is louder than I thought it would be and was louder than I had suspected. "You're home!" Then our of pure relief, I wrapped my arms around his neck and hugged him tight. He patted my back after a moment.

"You're home?" He says back trying to pull away but I continue to hold onto him.

"What did Butter sa-say to you?"

Craig looked to the side and placed one of his hands on my arm, "Was it true?"

"Idontknow!" I shout moving closer, "What did he say!"

"Tweek," Craig pulls back, I loosen up but leave my hands on his shoulders, "Do you like me as more than a friend?"

I felt my face heat up immediately. Maybe I can't do this. Maybe I shouldn't have just fling myself back into this mess- "...m-maybe..."

"Well," Craig pauses clearing his throat, "uh... it's cool that you and all, but I don't think I feel the same way." Crushing pain in chest starts. "But, just because I don't like you like... that, doesn't mean we can't still be friends and we can't live together and... yeah. I just don't think I can date you."

"Oh." I say. The pain is blunt, but stabbingly sharp. It feels like I've taken a metal baseball bat to the rib cage.

"We're still friends, right?" Craig asks, concern eating at his voice.

"O-Of course...." I say, "We'll always be friends."

Craig smiles and ruffles my hair.
