The Weighted Companion Cube (often referred to as the Companion Cube) is a recurring object in the Portal universe. It appears almost identical to the Weighted Storage Cube but with a pink heart replacing the Aperture Science logo.
In the first Portal, the Companion Cube was given to Chell to aid her in completing Test Chamber 17. In order to progress through the exit at the end of the chamber, the cube was dropped into the incinerator to be "euthanized". GLaDOS used this moment to taunt Chell during their confrontation. However, the Companion Cube can be seen prior to the end credits next to the cake.
In Portal 2, GLaDOS briefly torments Chell by repeatedly destroying Companion Cubes in Test Chamber 7, after she is woken up. It also makes an appearance in the co-op campaign, albeit impossible to interact with. After Chell leaves the facility, however, a scorched cube is ejected after her, being it the same cube from Portal. The Companion Cube in Portal 2 hums a tune which can be heard when the Cube is nearby.
The Companion Cube makes a prominent appearance in the Portal 2: Lab Rat comic, in which it speaks with protagonist Doug Rattmann. This appears to reference Portal, in which GLaDOS states that the Companion Cube cannot speak and if it does, its advice should be disregarded.
