Chapter Text
(Tweek’s POV)
It was after school Friday. The day we’re doing the stupid parade, But also the day we are playing. We all planned to meet at Stan’s house 2 hours before it started
Jimmy rode with me like always does. “Man I’m nervous, This -argh— is our first time playing live!” I said to Jimmy as we came to a red light. “Y-Ye- yeah dude but it’s also re- reaa- re- Super exciting” Jimmy smiled. “Do you thin- ughhh- Think people will like us? We’ve only really played for You and Stan’s parents, argh and well that’s parents.” I am overthinking. “We-we- all of us are going to do good, Kyle was also there.” Jimmy reminded me.
“Hey Stan.” I say walking into the barn we have made into a practice studio. “Hey guys, Do you wanna practice for Half an hour then we’ll pack and grab something to eat” Stan questioned “sss- s- Sounds like a gr-gr-gre- Awesome plan man.” Jimmy smiles.
We don’t get much practising done we were mostly making jokes but with the time we did get it sounded good. We soon packed our amps, drum kit and guitar. We decided to go eat at bennigan’s cause it wasn’t busy. We didn’t take long, so we got to the stage early which is good.
We set up the instruments and did a bit more practise before we saw the mayor. She talked to us about the plan, In 10 minutes she would have a small speech welcoming the Tuckers and stuff. Then we would play 5 minutes after the speech. I started smiling really wide because people will hear our music for the first time.
10 minutes later Mary tapped this mic grabbing everyones attention. “Hello everyone, quiet down.” She started “Well it makes me so happy that today is happening, Its not everyday South Park has a new family moving here.” She smiles “I would like to welcome the tuckers on stage.” She says waving her arm to the side of the stage a family of 4 walks on “Hi guys! Please introduce yourself!” A women’s voice started talking “Hi My name is Laura and this is my Husband Thomas.” Tweek heard the women say from back stage. “And these two are my children Craig and Trica.” Tweek heard the name tweek linger through the school the past week but never saw him.
“Me and my family are so grateful for this warm welcoming, and it definitely helps us get used to everyone!” Laura cheered and the whole crowd clapped. “Now let’s get this party started!!” Mary said.
That was our queue for 2 minutes left. I cleared my throat and did vocal exercises. Bit much, but I was getting nervous”
the 2 minutes passed quickly. Before we knew it we heard the mayor. “Now for the music! Please welcome Tweek and the echoing whispers!!” The crowd cheered. Kyle screaming stan’s name really loud.
I came to the mic and smiled nervously “Well all I can really say is thanks to the tuckers for making this possible.” I twitched. Jimmy was quick to click his sticks together counting us in. Stan started on guitar, as I scanned the crowd I noticed the boy from earlier, I twitched again.
‘Will I be fine’
That’s why I didn’t recognise the boy
‘I never ever know
No one ever ever knows’
God I must’ve looked like a fucking freak that day.
‘Have I lost my mind
Oh Tell me why’
I close my eyes to get rid of thought’s
‘I can't live and die
Elegantly high
And beautifully blind’
I can’t get rid of them, just focus on the music.
‘Tell me I'll be fine
Tell me sweet sweet lies
Cuz I'm dead inside
Cuz I'm dead inside tonight’
Im glad we chose this song really describes how I feel. Just sing it how you feel it.
‘Oh yeah
Oh no oh yeah, yeah
And Oh there's too many people
There's too many people
That walk alone’
I start to smile as I let loose.
‘That walk alone
And I, I don't know what love is
Oh I don't know what love is
Until you say goodbye’
I start to open my eyes
‘So I sing this song
That'll be just ours
That'll be just ours
Oh yeah yeah don't say goodbye’
I see many faces I recognise cheering and enjoying the music. But the one I don’t.
‘I just need some help
I can't look at myself
Cuz I'm numb inside
And everything will die’
Won’t look away.
‘Tell me I'll be fine
Tell me sweet, sweet lies
Cuz I'm dead inside
And everything will die
And Oh there's too many people
There's too many people
That walk alone yeah’
And now I can’t
‘And I, I don't know what love is
Oh I don't know what love is
Until you say goodbye
So don't say goodbye
So don't say goodbye
So don't say goodbye’
He look away, For some reason. That I am unaware of. That feels wrong
‘So don’t say goodbye
And Oh there's too many people
There's too many people’
I try to get him to look back.
‘That walk alone
And I, I don't know what love is
Oh I don't know what love is
Until you say goodbye’
At that moment it’s like he read my thoughts. He looked at me and smiled. My face goes red. What’s happening..?
‘So I sing this song
That'll be just our
That'll be just ours
And Oh there's too many people
There's too many people’
Yet through my confusion and hot feeling I can’t look away.
‘That walk alone
And I, oh I don't know what love is
Oh I don't know what love is
Until you say goodbye
So don't say goodbye
Don't say goodbye now babe
Don't say goodbye’
Until the last word.
I hear the crowd cheering loudly which breaks my focus. I quickly smile and laugh “thank you! This next one—“
We played for another half hour we play our hearts out until its stage break and another music thing happens. I quickly make my way to my parents booth for coffee.
“You boys did so good!” My father states convincingly.. ‘he wasn’t paying attention’ “Yeah thanks dad, Uh can I have my coffee tho?” I try to put on a smile. He looks at me and smiles “of course” he hands it to me and I take off but the boys don’t leave.
I’m left by myself to explore.
I see a booth with some star shaped things, I notice it’s a space table in general. (I like stars) So I go up to see if there anything for my room, Before I notice the tall boy beside me with black hair and blue hat.
“Oh Hi"
