⚠️TW: MENTIONING OF CUTS
Dream immediately gets up super excited. He runs down stairs, eats, takes a shower, brushes his teeth, and thinks about calling George.

"I really want to talk to George but I don't know if he wants to talk right now. At least we're meeting up soon!"

George has all of his stuff packed up. He leaves his house around 3:45 am. George is wearing baggy clothes so you couldn't see his body that well.

✨🌊Skip to when George is in Florida✨🌊

"Can't believe it. I'm actually gonna see Clay."

George rushes over to the main entrance in the airport and there he greets Clay.

"GEORGE!"

"DREAMMM!"

"I can't believe it you're actually here!"

George runs over full speed to give Dream a hug. They end up hugging each other tightly for around 5 minutes.

"Come on George i'll take you to my house and you can unpack your stuff."

George follows Dream to his car and drives for a good 30 minutes.

"We're here!"

George is shocked. He can't process anything. All he knew was that he was safe.

"My room is this way."

"Woahhh. You have a really big room."

"Really? I always thought it was kind of small."

They laughed.

"Hey, Dream?"

"Yeah?"

"I-Is it okay if i can sleep? I didn't sleep that well last night and i'm really tired."

"Of course it is George."

"Also do you think you can come to?"

Dream starts to blush. His mind goes blank and all he could think about is how cute he was.

"Yeah, Yeah I- I guess I can if it makes you feel better."

"Thank you. :)"

Dream gets into his bed with George. George gripped onto dreams and gave him a tight hug. He started crying but Dream didn't know why. All he could do was try to comfort him.

"George don't cry what's wrong?" Did I do something wrong?"

George was unresponsive and cried harder. This made Dream worry a lot more than usual.

"George please talk to me I won't be mad at you or disappointed I promise. It breaks me to know that i can't do anything."

The brunette stared into the dirty-blondes eyes with his bright red puffy eyes and sighed.

Dream thinks a while to try and understand why he's so upset. There was only one thing he could think of but he wanted to try something.

"Ill go make us some food okay?"

"Okay."

Dream left the room and walked into the kitchen. He made some pasta for the two of them and brought it up.

"Here George i brought you some pasta."

"Thank you."

Dream left to go bring Patches inside and get her food. Meanwhile George scraped some of his pasta onto Dreams plate. He walked into the bathroom and threw it all up.

"Sorry about that i went to go feed patches."

George was still unresponsive. Dream saw that there was more pasta on his plate and knew that he was right.

"George did you. Did you eat at all?"

George could hear the trembling in his voice an just stared at him. It all made sense. George was wearing baggy sweat pants and a bigger hoodie. He would start breathing faster and deeper when he was around a mirror.

Dream picked George up and walked into the bathroom. He made George look at himself in his mirror.

"George look at yourself." "Why can't you realize how amazing you are?"

"All i see is a pale way to skinny boy."

"George stop it. You're beautiful. Yes you might be pale and yes you might be really skinny, but you're amazing."

Dream turned him away from the mirror and hugged him knowing he made George more upset by making him stand in front of the mirror, but he had to get George to realize.

"I-I'm sorry."

"Dream?"

"Yes?"

"Can we go to the park and relax?"

"Well i mean yeah i guess we can but it's 11 pm."

George smiled as they walked to the park.

"Come on lets go to the bench over there!"

Dream grabbed the brunettes arm and pulled him over.

"OW!"

"You okay?"

"Yeah I just uh, scraped my arm on the tree branches over there."

Dream took a hold of George's arms making sure not to hurt him and pulling up his sleeves to reveal all of his scars.

"G-George?" "W-why didn't you t-tell me?"

"Clay i'm sorry. i'm so sorry. I- I didn't mean to cut so deep i'm s-sorry."

"It's okay." Dreams reassured him. "I'm not mad i'm just worried."

"S-so you aren't going to break up with me?"

"George why the fuck would i do that."

There was an awkward moment of silence until George ran into Dream squeezing him wrapping his arms around his waist.

"Please just don't make me eat.Please."

"Can you at least try to eat an apple or something when we get back?"

George looked away for a moment and just nodded his head saying yes.

"George just know you're beautiful and I love you."

"I- I love you too Dream."

"Let's go home now it's late."
