Summer in Florida

{Chapter 20}

TW: possible violence, mention of murder.

A few days passed, the contact George had called ended up being not someone close of Aaron, but rather an enemy. So, useful for George.

The man didn't really know why Aaron had recruited Dream, he only said that Aaron is dangerous and Dream working with him wouldn't be safe for anyone.

Even though they weren't sure why Dream was working with Aaron, they knew that they'd be at some fancy party tonight, held at some big venue.

George had informed Sapnap about everything. They were both planning on showing up. They didn't exactly have a plan. But Dream couldn't just shut out his feelings for George completely, right?

So they were going to use that to their advantage. They at least wanted to know what Aaron had against Dream or why he was working for him.

"You almost ready George?" Sapnap called from the living room.

George emerged from the bedroom and walked into the living room where Sapnap was.

"I hate suits." George said before looking down and wiping his suit with his hands.

"Looks good on you." Sapnap joked.

"Shut up." George laughed

"Come on, we better get going." Sapnap said.

George sighed before following Sapnap out of the door, locking it behind him, and started walking out the apartment building and towards their car.

Around 20 minutes had passed. The two were still driving, however they were only around 10 minutes away from the venue.

George was breathing heavily.

"Everything okay?" Sapnap asked, looking at George.

"What has our lives come to?" George let out a shocked laugh. "A couple months ago we were sat around our computers playing Minecraft, and now Dream's working with some psycho to do god knows what and we're spending our lives following him." A tear fell from his eye.

"I know, I just don't get how we ended up here." Sapnap said, letting out a sigh.

***

The rest of the car journey was silent. They had just pulled up in a parking lot outside of the venue.

"Ready?" Sapnap asked.

George just nodded in response. The two left the car and headed towards the building.

As they entered the building they were surrounded by at least a couple hundred people, the room was packed. It was going to be impossible to find Dream.

"Okay I'm going to go on the right side, you stay on the left." George instructed, before walking away.

A tall man came beside George and offered him a glass of wine, held on a fancy silver tray.

George accepted and took one of the glasses.

George stood there alone and just looked around for a few moments, to see if he could spot Dream. He didn't recognise anyone from this party, but they were all dressed in fancy clothes, his best guess would be that they were a bunch of rich people.

George continued standing alone until he felt something brush past his arm and then he felt the presence of another person beside him.

"Dance with me?" A sudden voice called from beside him.

George looked to his left to see a tall man with dirty blonde hair, dressed in a suit.

Dream placed out his hand and George placed down his glass and then walked away with Dream.

Dream led him to the centre of the room, where quite a few other people were dancing with each other.

As the two were dancing it was as if everything was okay, even if just for a spilt second. George stared into Dream's eyes as they moved around the room, Dream's hand around George's waist and George's hands on his shoulders.

George just stared into his eyes, completely mesmerised. Tears started to form in his eyes, Dream looked at though he was fighting his back, whilst George just allowed them to form.

After a few moments of dancing around, as magical and amazing as it was George still needed to speak with him. He went to open his mouth to speak until he felt something pressed against his waist.

He lost eye contact with Dream and looked down, to see a gun pressed against his lower chest, held by Dream.

Dream bent down and moved close to George, whispering in his ear.

"Do not continue looking for me. I do not love you. I never will and never have. What we had, it was all fake. This is the life I always wanted and will continue to live. You mean nothing to me and I hate you with every bone in my body." Dream whispered before putting the gun back into his jacket and walking away.

Leaving George stood alone, tears streaming out of his eyes. He rushed off of the dance floor, walking towards Sapnap.

He grabbed Sapnap's wrist and pulled him out of the building, dragging him towards the car.

"Woah George what are you doing?" Sapnap asked.

George didn't reply, he only continued sobbing and heading towards the car. When they reached the car, the two got in.

"Just drive." George said, wiping his tears whilst more came flooding down.

Sapnap just looked and George and nodded his head as he started to drive the car away.

aww that was actually kind of sad lol.

I've actually thought of another ending for the story now and if i do end up doing that ending then it isn't necessarily sad, no deaths or anything like that.

But I hope your enjoying the story:D
