~George's POV~

'He's- he's gay' I said to myself while smiling like crazy, I pull Clays head to look at me by putting my pointer finger underneath his chin and my thumb on his chin. He slowly looks up to me with his watery eyes, we make eye contact as I give him a huge smile and lovely hug. 

My arms softly lay on top of his shoulders while feel his arms rap around my back, I move my face from the top of his head to right above his ear in his fluffy, soft dirty blonde hair. I talk in a very low whisper.

"Clay, I'm bi" I tell him in a loving way, I've known I was bi for quite a long time actually. I may or may not have a preference for men... I mean girls are pretty and can be active but guys?! Don't get me started

~3rd person~

After what George had said Clay felt safe, he knew that he needed to tell them more

"It's my fault because...I had came out to then,  my parents said they accepted me, but I could see that they had some doubt. I got out of their house as soon as possible so the awkwardness would hopefully die, it had been an hour later and I had gotten a call from unknown number, so I-I answered it and it was the hospital asking is I was Clay Taken. I said I was and they had told me my family had gotten in an accident and were probably not gonna make it. I completely broke down and- and I couldn't handle it. I kept telling myself that it was my fault because I was gay...I sorry" Clay said while his voice would crack every few moments. Nick decided to finally join the group hug, they stayed like this for the next 14 minutes.

~time skip~

Nick and George were in the kitchen talking while Clay was up in his room getting changed from his clothes, which were soaked from all the crying. 

"Hey Nick" George said with a little sigh at the beginning 

"Yeah?" Nick response, while turning his head towards George

"I think we just just stay home and rest, Maybe tomorrow we can go to the beach,  I mean if Clay is up for it of course" George Says 

"We should definitely cuddle and watch Netflix" Nick got really excited for that idea of the day

"I'm cool with that" George says while slightly blushing of the thought of cuddling with Clay again

It was dead quiet for a bit before George spoke up again 

"So I told Clay this, and I figured I should tell you too" he says while looking his head downwards 

"I'm bi, and have a slight preference for men" George says rubbing the back of his neck

"Wait- really?! So Dreamnotfound can be real?!" Nick asked in a sarcastic way

"What the hell nickk" George groans at Nicks response while hiding his face in his arms, which were on the island. Nick just giggles for a moment 

"For real man Im proud you trusted me, I know some people can be very judgmental" Nick says while patting George's back

"We should get Clay to make a video telling all the fans he's ok,. Or something like that" Nick recommend 

"Yeah he should" George says then instantly stands us and goes upstairs to Clays room. George had knocked on the door a few times then heard Clay saying he could go in, he say Clay sitting on the edge of his bed, so George joined him.

"Nick and I think it would be wise for you to make a little video telling all the fans your...you know not dead" Clay looks up at George at nods

"...can I have a hug" Clay asked in a very low whisper, but George still heard him and hug him. 

~time skipppp(again) Clay's POV~

I had gotten the video out, it was just of my Minecraft character while I talked. I told them that I was just super busy with personal stuff and needed a bit of a break, a crazy amount of people were super supportive and stuff.

After that Nick, George and I were all cuddling on the couch while we watched Netflix, I'm pretty sure that Nick fell asleep...but that's a story for another time;) 

I got George to sleep in my room again tonight, the couch was super dirty from all the snacks we had and Nick was in the second room. I was laying on my bed while George was on top of me, but wasn't at the same time. He was basically laying on my side and had his arms wrapped around my chest, while one of my arms is underneath him and the other is playing with his soft fluffy hair. I noticed that George started to look up at me

"You know Clay, I'm so proud of you...your Heath is doing so much better, and Nick and I have only been here for what? 3 days?" He chuckles a bit " I mean your showering again, and eating, sleeping and you seen pretty happy to me" this time I was the one who chuckles before looking down at him

"I wouldn't be like this if it wasn't for you and Nick, I'll be forever thankful for you two."I say with a loving voice, then suddenly I feel something at my feet. It was patches, she lays down at our feet as we both start laughing. 

After we calmed down from the whole patches incident, George and I make eye contact. I smile at him and give him a soft head kiss

"Goodnight George" I say while feeling his soft hair up against my face, I could feel the blush on my face. But just as long George didn't see it,  it was fine.

"Goodnight Clay" George says in a very sleepy voice

I feel George cuddling up to my chest, 'I've completely fallen for him...' 

we both fall asleep in each other's arms again, it feels nice to have him here.
