{DISCONTINUED/DOING A REWRITE} Lonely Nights Without You {Dreamnotfound}

A Peaceful Yet Hectic Awakening {PT4}

Clay's POV:

I had been finished for a while now, but George didn't notice since he was tired from the medicine in the tea. I glance at his face looking away from my 'work'. I didn't realize he was reaching for me causing me to jump a bit, I blush a bit once his hand touched my face. I smile, grabbing his hand and leaning into it. With my other I take the empty cup and place it on a nearby table, me being distracted didn't realize he was leaning into me. I felt my face heat up once I saw him, I looked down at his face on my chest realizing that he was asleep. I slowly picked George up without disturbing him, and carefully carried him down the dirt trail leading back to his and the boys' cabin.

Third Person POV:

Nick and Techno were having a conversation about what they thought was happening with the two love birds. Clay walked in carrying a sleeping George. Nick and Techno give each other the 'look'. "Whatcha got there Clay?" Nick said smirking. Clay's face turns a light shade of pink. "None of your business," Clay mumbles while putting George on his cot. "Oh really?" Techno teases, "I'm totally telling Tommy." Clay gets this annoyed look, while sitting down next to the sleeping George. "I swear if you tell Tommy I will kill you," he threatens in a whisper. Techno turns to Nick, they both smirk at each other, "ok love bird, I won't tell Tommy," Techno says, "yet." Clay turns and scoffs at them, while leaning back and closing his eyes.

Nick's POV:

A little bit after Clay fell asleep I look over at Techno, "Plan A is a go!" I whisper as Techno and I get up to walk over to the two that are sleeping. Once we got over there we realized we barely even had to do anything, George was already up against Clay while Clay had his arm wrapped around George. I sigh in relief, meanwhile Techno just goes over and pushes them even closer together and I smirk, going over to help him. Next thing we knew George was against Clay's chest. Meanwhile Clay was holding onto George with his chin resting on his head. "Plan A worked out!" we fist bump each other for our victory. I sigh, "we're definitely getting poisoned tomorrow." He grins at me, "no you are getting poisoned."

George's POV:

I woke up to a weird warm feeling next to me, my eyes were closed so I didn't know what it was. I was cold so I shifted even closer to the figure. When I opened my eyes I look up to see that Clay was sitting up and looking down at me with a deep shade of red tinting his face. Soon when I realized what was happening I felt my face heat up while I sat up. There were new faces in the room, they were laying down on the cots across from me. I look at them seeing that they were obviously injured with Darryl treating their wounds. "Darryl?" I say, "do you need help?" He turns to look at me and smiles, "that would be great actually," he points over to one of the worse patients, "can you help Ranboo? He was another hostage at the camp you were at, they apparently only had him because of his 'breed' as they had put it." I shudder at the thought of what could have happened to him, Ranboo looks over to me with fear in his eyes. Which to I give a reassuring smile, "you're going to be okay, I won't hurt you I promise." I put out my hand, only my pinky extended, he does the same and we interlock our fingers. "Okay, I trust you," he says while grabbing a diary like book and writes something in it. I stand up to look at the other boy that was next to Ranboo, he hasn't been treated yet but he was holding a stuffed animal, well, more like an insect, to his chest. He looks over to me and smiles, "My name's Tubbo!" he says. I smile, "name's George, I'll also be the one to help you with those cuts and bruises okay?" he just nods at me. The two of them looked pretty young. I look over to Nick, but he was bickering with Clay, "Nick!" I call out. He looks surprised and looks over at me. "Yeah what's up?"

"Do you mind getting Tommy?"

He gives me a confused look, while Techno just simply gives me a smile, "I can go get him for you," he says. I look over to Techno, "thanks." I say as Techno walks out the door. Nick just shrugs and continues bickering with Clay. I look over to see Tubbo and Ranboo giving me confused looks questioning who this Tommy character was. I just smile and walk over to Darryl where everything was laid out and grabbed everything that I needed. I walked back over to the two and sit in between them so I could do both at the same time. I first clean up both their wounds, which they both flinch at from the extra pain. "I'm sorry but this'll hurt for a bit," I say soothingly. They both looked at me with fascination. "Woah, how do you do this so quickly?" Tubbo asks, I chuckle, "It takes a lot of practice," I say, "I mean look at Darryl!" We all turn to look at him, and I keep going, "He's only been doing this for a couple of years, but due to a lot of extra patients from when he used to help me back in the castle walls he's gotten even better at it." Ranboo looks at me excitedly, "so you taught Darryl?" I nod, "That's so cool!" Tubbo says excitedly as I finished up cleaning his wounds. Ranboo and Tubbo look at each other and back to me, I look at them confused, but then they both say, "could you teach us?" I laugh, "Of course I can teach you."

A few seconds later Techno comes in with a figure trailing behind him, "Hey Tommy!" I say smiling. "Oh hey George," says not focused on me anyone but the two that I was working on. "This is Ranboo," I point to him, "and this is Tubbo," I point over to the other one. I finally say, "They're going to be staying in your cabin with you and Wilbur." Tommy's whole face lights up as he comes over to Tubbo's cot and sits down talking to the both of them while I finish up what I was doing and walk over to Darryl. "How's he doing?" I ask, Darryl looks up to me with worried eyes. "I-I'm not sure. He won't wake up." I frown, "What do you think the problem is."

"I don't know. It may be a powerful drug, but I don't have the equipment to test for that. I'm not sure if he is in a coma either."

I frown, unsure. Then I realized, "was he at the same camp?"

"Yes, he was."

I smile, remembering what had happened to me. "This might not be true, but I'm pretty sure that anesthesia was used." Darryl's eyes light up, "so he just needs time to wake up I'm guessing?"

"Exactly, remember when you couldn't wake me up because I was 'passed out'?" Darryl gives me a confused look. "Yeah, but you took forever to wake up. Maybe even a day or-" He gasps, and smiles at me with relief, then he says, "so in conclusion, he just needs time to wake up himself?" I nod, "yeah, but the after effects are not all that great, it also depends on how much he inhaled of it. The after effects are not good." He just shakes his head, "He at least can wake up, we just need to wait." Darryl smiles and gives me a hug, once he pulls away he says, "I probably wouldn't have figured that out myself so thanks." I laugh, "not a problem, I am your mentor after all." He chuckles, "that's true." He waves his goodbye as he leaves the room I look over at the three behind me still chatting up a storm. Then I look over to Techno, Nick, and Clay. They seem to be nagging at him over something, I tune out their conversation to focus cleaning up my work station.

Clay's POV:

I look over to see George and the kids talking, they look really happy talking to George. I smile at the sight. "You're so creepy y'know." I turn to see Wilbur walk over and sit down next to me. "How am I creepy?" I asked confused. "You're just starring at him, you know, it's pretty obvious that you're in love." I look away and flush. "I- I don't know what you're talking about." He smiles at me, "it's not a bad thing," he looks over to the four of them chatting about what George does, "even someone like me can fall in love," he says. I look back at him surprised. "Really?" He looks back to me, with a reassuring look in his eyes and smile, which I return. I look back over to see George beckon me over and the three other boys have a twinkling look in their eyes. Confused, I get up and walk over to plant myself next to George. He looks at me and smiles, I flush pink, "so these three want to know what happened to you," he says poking my arm. I smile, "not until you tell them what happened to you first." He huffs, "that's not fair don't switch this up on me." The three's eyes light up even brighter, "what did happen to you George?" they all started asking. He sighs, "okay, okay I'll tell you, but you have to promise not to interrupt." Tommy and the other two got closer and started listening intently. Even Nick, Techno, and Wilbur, started to listen in.
