New Friends, or Old?

Part 8 - Mine

*George POV*

The weekend has finally come, but sadly I had stuff I needed to do still, lucky me. I stayed at my place last night and honestly it was really lonely. I never realized how big and empty it felt till I was over at Dream's place almost all the time. I didn't even have my living room set up yet, I really only had the bare stuff I needed when I moved and just hadn't had the time to get anything else set up.

After I'm done getting ready for the day I walk out to the bus stop and wait to go out to the furniture store to get something to make my place feel more lived in. The bus pulls up and I get on waiting for my stop, and I start thinking to myself.

'I know Dream offered for us to live together, but did he really mean it or was he just saying it? If he did should I really be going and looking for something like a couch? If he was being honest I guess more sitting space wouldn't hurt, he does kind of have a small clutch that's just big enough to be slept on, and even though it still looked good you could tell that it was older.' I had gotten lost in thought and after another little while I saw the stop I needed coming up. After the bus stopped to let more people on I got off and started my make my way to some stores.

I went to go look at couches first, hoping that I can find a place that will deliver so I don't have to try and rent a truck and find someone to drive it for me. I should probably try to get my license and a car at some point. I start looking around and find a couch that I really liked, it had 3 seats to it then a long L part that connected to the other seats and had what looked to be storage cubies under the seats. I had just the spot in mind for it, I decide to check the price and am pleasantly surprised to find that it's cheaper than I thought it would have been. As I'm stepping back to get another look at the couch a floor person came up to me. 

"Hello sir, can I help you find anything today?" They ask me.

"I'm looking at getting this couch, do you guys deliver?" I ask.

They nod. "Yes we do, can I help you get the paperwork started or do you want to look around a little more?"

"I'll do the paperwork now." I say and follow them to the desks and fill everything out. I'm able to get it set up to be same-day delivery, so I can feel fancy sooner.

I walk out and go past some other storefronts, halfway paying attached to what I was passing. I then hear someone call out my name, I turn and see that it was Dream. 'How do you seem to be everywhere I go?' I think to myself as I walk up to the taller male.

"What are you doing out today?" I ask now standing in front of him.

"Patches had a vet appointment today and I was just wasting some time while I waited for her to be done. What are you doing out?" He asks me.

"I went out to get some food and just bought a couch." He laughs at me slightly.

"Last I checked you can't eat a couch." Dream said and I pouted slightly at him.

"I didn't have anything and wanted my house to feel like someone lived there." 

He puts his hands up in defense. "Alright, grumpy boy. Have you gone to the store yet?" 

I shake my head. "No, I'm on my way now. I don't mind walking, it's not too far from here and I don't have a lot of things to get so I can take the bus back." I really don't want to be a burden to Dream anymore than I already may have been, and him giving me rides everywhere isn't needed. 

"You might not mind walking, but I also have some stuff that I should pick up and," He looks down at his phone I'm guessing to check the time. "I have about another 40 minutes before I can pick Patches back up. So why not? We're going to the same place at the same time."
