~ Dream's perspective ~

I woke up with a terrible headache, with the sun beaming in my eyes. I yawned as I slowly rolled out of bed. I looked at my reflection in the bathroom mirror, a groggy-eyed blonde boy starred back at me. I splashed my face with cold water, then decided to take a well-needed shower after catching a whiff of my own stench. 

While in the shower I kept thinking of George and I's conversation a couple of weeks ago. I can't believe he thought we wouldn't get along on the trip! I mean why would he think that? We are friends... best friends. 

Two hours later that day...

I was on a call with George, and Sapnap. The stream had just ended and we were all laughing and talking about the trip. 

I began to become extremely nervous about what I was going to say next. 

 I'm gonna tell them... I'm finally gonna tell them what I have planned for when they come down to Florida.

"Shut up Sapnap!" George was giggling, his character was running and jumping over blocks, with Sapnap following behind him. 

"Guys... I have something to tell you." I said as I watched my screen light up with green, moving my character along a green field of grass blocks.

"OooOo what is it?" Sapnap said, then George chimed in with a; "Why so serious?"  

"Do you guys wanna know what I have planned for Florida?" 

I grinned and thought about what their reactions would be to what I was going to say next.

"Say it already!" George whined. 

" Get ready for... drum roll, please!" 

Sapnap and George began banging on their desks through their mics. 

" A boat trip! Five days out at sea, with special activities I have planned for our entertainment." 

Just then the call erupted with "ooh's" and "aw's" 

"Really? Wow, that sounds... interesting." George said in a soft, rather low voice. 

"What? What's the problem? Don't you like it?" 

I started to get worried as George didn't sound as excited as Sapnap was put out to be. 

"No, yeah I do, I really do. it's just that, I- I..." George lowered his voice as he said the next part.

"I don't know how to swim." 

Sapnap burst out in laughter, trying to contain himself, but failing miserably. I couldn't help but feel bad for George, "Sapnap! quit laughing." I said while punching his character in front of me. 

"I'm leaving, I knew he would react like that!" George said jokingly, but I wouldn't be surprised if he was actually going to leave. 

"No, George! c'mon it's okay, you don't have to swim if you don't want to. I could even teach you if you want." 

I thought about it, me teaching George how to swim. It was a funny picture, but also sweet.

"Thank you, Dream" 

I watched as Sapnap was walking his character slowly over to George. 

"Sapnap! Apologize to George... right now." I said, sounding like my own mother.

"Sorry, George." Sapnap replyed. 

George hummed and didn't say anything.

"Good," I said. 

"Now let's play some Minecraft." 

June 14th 

A day before the trip. 

 He'd announced the trip yesterday, and everyone was going insane about it, the fans were already making guesses as to what was going to happen. 

Dream sat on the couch, scrolling through Instagram and responding to messages and tweets. 

Sapnap and George would be flying over tomorrow. They would be arriving late at night so they would spend the night at Clay's house, then in the morning head out to the city of Miami, get a hotel and spend the day exploring the city before setting sail on their "boat trip" 

The "Ding- Dong" of the doorbell rang, and I sprung up to answer. 

"Pizza!" I yelled speed-walking to the door. 

Sure enough, it was the pizza delivery guy, I handed him a 20. "Have a good night!"

"You too!" the pizza guy shouted while walking away.

It was sausage and pepperoni, I carried the box to the couch, set it on the coffee table, and got ready to call George and Sapnap. 

They had just met at the airport in Texas sending me pictures of them at a highly-populated airport. In the picture, George was holding up his ticket to the camera and smiling, while Nick was pointing to him. 

I couldn't help but smile, I let out a giggle as George starred back at me in the picture with his contagious smile. 

I gave the message a "thumbs up reaction" and began typing...
    
                                  Nick

                                'Can't wait to see you guys!'

I flipped on the TV, The Office was playing it was a re-run of the episode "Stress Relief"

I grabbed a another slice of pizza. While I was still eating I got a message from my phone.

It was from George

'See you at 5'

I stared at the message, confused.

I responded back

' Wdym? I thought your plane wasn't gonna land until late at 11pm?'

He responded almost right away. I figured he had good wifi wherever he was.

George's message read:

'Idk, we just got informed that the plane is gonna arrive early at 5am'

I let out an audible, 'What!?' Causing me to almost drop the half-eaten slice of pizza on the floor. I set it down in the box and sat up.

'Well then, I guess I'll see you early tommorow.'

It was late at night, so that meant Dream would be up and unable to sleep. He layed in bed with thousands of thoughts running through his head. Mostly of George.

Even though he'd known Nick for longer than George... he felt a strong connection between him and it seemed to him like whenever they talk he's complete.

Dream had always had a little crush on George, but he never really knew he had a crush on him until he  thought about it.

It seemed like whenever he would have thoughts about finding George attractive, it was "weird" and that he shouldn't be having those thoughts, so he would push them to the back of his mind.

~ Dreams pov ~

I tried to get some sleep, after all I would have to get up at 4 in the morning to drive to the airport to pick up Gogy and Sapnap.

But, like always I couldn't get to sleep.
My mind was awake, so I was.

I started to feel the so called "unwanted feelings" thoughts I couldn't bare to face.

I rolled out of bed, and went into the lanai to get some fresh air. It was still warm outside, with the exception of a cool breeze.

I sat out on the lanai for a while, listening to the "June bugs" as they made a particular noise that always reminded me of my childhood during the summer.

I went back inside when I was finally tired enough to get some rest.
