The Battle (DNF)

Leave Me Alone

The rest of the week in that town George had barely left his bed, he had barely eaten and he would only get up to use the bathroom. He hadn't showered in a while. Why would he? He had no energy to even get out of bed. No one would see him like this except for Dream.

"George... come on get up. We have to leave today." Dream put out his hands to help George up.

George slowly gripped onto his hand and Dream gently pulled him up off the bed.

"We should be home by around 4 or 5... I'll be driving."

George grabbed his suitcase and strolled it off to the car "Bye! Hope you enjoyed staying at our hotel!" The front desk lady said before they left. Dream waved back at her and smiled before looking over at George in mishope.

"George, I'm worried about you."

George slowly looked up at him "She was all I had left. Nobody at her own funeral was even crying over her. Dad led her to kill herself and now she's dead. And no one seems to care." George threw his suitcase in the back and he sat down on the front passenger seat.

"Dream... she was the only family member who I still cared for. She died a week before her fucking birthday too. She couldn't even make it to her sweet 16."

George plugged his phone into the Ox cord and played his sad playlist. "George..."

George shushed him "Just let it happen."

Almost immediately George had fallen asleep on the door and Dream kept on driving. He plugged his own phone into the ox cord and listened to his better playlist.

Dream shook George awake "Were home."

George looked up and was confused "Did I really sleep for 4 hours?"

Dream laughed and nodded his head.

They walked inside and George laid right back down onto the couch. "George we have to unpack-."

"Dream please, I want to watch a movie and cuddle. I missed you. I was ignoring you, sorry." Dream smiled and walked over to George. Sitting down beside him and grasping him in his arms "I love you George."

"I love you too..."

George cuddled up into Dream's grasp, enjoying the love that he felt which he hadn't felt in a while.

"Hey Dream..."

"What Georgie?"

"We never made this official..."

"What do you mean George?"

"You forced me to be with you because he still liked me, but we never officially made us a thing."

"Well then." Dream sat up "George... do you want to be my boyfriend?"

"Of course." George smiled and kissed Dream.

He pulled away from the kiss "It was kinda a dick move to force me to be with you because you were still In love with me and I wasn't paying attention to you."

"Sorry."

George snuggled into the crook of Dream's neck. "It's okay..."

"What movie do you want to watch?" Dream said in a sleepy voice

"365 days..."

Dream sat up "HUH?!"

George giggled "That was a joke calm down."
