Clyde

"Thanks for today Craig," I say with joy.

"No problem, I really needed a day like today aswell," He replies wrapping an arm around me.

I smile for a few seconds before it slowly fades as I know what is awaiting me at home.

Craig seemed to have noticed my somber expression, he pulls me closer to him.

"What's wrong?" He asks with concern interrupting his usual monotonous manner.

"Oh. Its just I... uhh..." I try to say but my thoughts mumble my words making me slip over them.

"Whatever is working you, I will help you through it. You can trust me," He says, it sounded too good to be true.

"I can't go back to him, Token will kill me Craig..." I say with tears threatening to escape my eyes.

"Don't make me go back okay, please Craig promise me," I say with desperation.

He cups my chin, "I promise you I will never let him hurt a hair on that pretty little head of yours." Craig replies, he slowly moves towards me and presses his lips onto mine.

The moment only lasted a few moments but was more perfect than ever, I loved every single moment of it. I love him.

"You can come stay with me," He says making me smile.

"What about Tweek? Will he be fine with it?" I ask.

"He will have to because I am not letting you feel like that anymore," Craig replies.

"Thank you... so much," I say.

"Wait. What about your daughter," Craig asks, I close my eyes and begin to sob.

"She's gone..." I say blankly, I stare up at him with my vision blurry.

"How did she die?" He asks, I snicker slightly.

"She's not dead, Tokens mom took her away from us as she didnt want her to live in a abusive household." I say still crying.

"Clyde... I'm so sorry," He says looking down at his feet.

I sigh as the sun begins to set over the valleys our little town resides in. The orange glow bathes the town like a blanket of happiness, a perfect ending to such an emotional day...

Tweek

One Week Later

I start to cough as Bebe helps me sit up, she passes me a glass of water. I start to sip at the glass. I turn to face the blonde.

I smile weakly as I cough several times, "Thanks," I say in a groggy and nasally voice.

"No problem, we should tell Craig the truth. Even though he is an asshole he needs to know." Bebe says, I shake my head and try to speak.

"No... don't bother, he thinks I am at a Coffee convention and I know right now he is fucking that chubby fuck," I say with anger.

"Okay Tweek, I just want you to be alright," She says.

A slight knock at the door scares me as I veer around and look at the doctor standing in the doorway.

"Hello again Tweek. Bebe. So I just did another scan and unfortunately the cancer as adapted and spread throughout your respiratory system. That means that the cancer is spreading faster than what we first realized," The doctor says, I slightly laugh as I slump back. I stare at the ceiling as the doctor lists more thing off but I completely zone him out.

"What about chemo?" I ask

"We caught the cancer too late, chemo is out of the picture sorry..." He explains but again I zone out.

"Tweek! You only have at least one week until the cancer kills you," the doctor explains, tears fill my eyes as Bebe grabs my hand and squeezes hard.

"We need to get Craig!" Bebe says, I hesitantly nod as I begin to bawl my eyes out.

I don't wanna die...

Craig

"I am so glad Tweek went to that coffee thing, it gives us more time to ourselves," I say to the brunette wrapped in my arms.

"Yeah, Tweek seemed really pale though. I hope he is alright," Clyde says.

"Don't worry he probably didnt have enough coffee. If Tweek was dying he would tell me by now," I say snickering.

*RING RING* as my ring tone plays I scramble out of bed and attempt to find the cellular device.

After I acquire the device I answer the phone, "Hello, this is Craig?" I say into the phone.

"Craig! Hospital now its Tweek!" A female voice says before hanging up.

I quickly get changed and exit my house with Clyde wanting to stay home and clean up the mess me and him had created.

I enter the hospital and run to the reception, "I need to see Tweek!" I say hoping the call wasn't faked as Clyde had suggested.

"He is room 205," She says without looking away from the computer.

A hand grabs my arm, I feel myself get dragged through the hospital. Blonde hair and a red shirt or blouse was all the details I could see while being dragged 2mph in a crowded hallway.

We stop at a room and I see who the dragger was. Bebe, Tweeks BFF, looks at me and the slaps me across the face.

"Before you enter, I need to tell you that what you see isnt gonna be nice. Also fuck you for cheating on Tweek with the little Clyde cunt." She says.

My eyes grow wide, "Does he know?" I ask.

She nods before shoving me into the room.

I look at the hospital bed, a shocking sight unveils itself unto me.

Tweeks pale skin and sunken eyes look at me, his body looks frail and his normal blonde hair is now slightly grayer.

He slighty smiles, a few seconds fade as tears form around my eyes.

I sit down beside and grab his weak hand.

"What happened?" I ask concerned as I slowly sob.

"Cancer..."

"Why didnt you tell me?" I ask.

"I tried too *cough* it was caught too late anyway. *cough* there is nothing we can do," he says coughing.

"I am so fucking sorry, you don't deserve this. You deserve the fucking world not whatever cruel shit this is," I say gripping his hand further.

"Don't *cough* be sorry, I should've told you. For that I am sorry," Tweek replies placing his other want ontop of mine.

"Tweek... I know you know about Clyde," I say solemnly.

"Its pretty fucking obvious," He says before going into a coughing fit.

"I can't lose you Tweek," I cry...

"I will always be with you Craig," He says to me, he places his hand over my heart as his eyes slowly close.

"No don't go!" I shout.

He smiles, "I'm just tired, I'm not dying yet." He says laughing slightly.

"Now let me sleep," He retorts.

"Okay but I am staying here, I will be by your side no matter what."

"No matter what." I say repeating myself.
