Dream led George to an old house. The house is located in an open area in the middle of the forest. "You...live here?" George asked Dream. Dream hummed in agreement. They both went inside the house to be greeted by a cat. "Patches!" Dream picked up the cat and gave her some food to eat. George roamed around the house until he saw a bookshelf full of books. He grabbed a random book and read it. The book was all about different kinds of rocks. He was too focused on it; he didn't notice Dream standing in front of him. "Hey prince charming~" Dream cooed at George's ear, making George blush and covering his face with the book. Dream then proceeds to wheeze like a tea kettle at George's reaction.

Once Dream had calmed down a bit he asked George if he wanted to eat or sleep first since they both stayed up all night to escape. George wanted to eat so Dream cooked some eggs and hotdogs for breakfast. While he was cooking, George was watching him cook. "Why are you watching me? I-it feels creepy you know." Dream told George while cooking some hotdogs. "I just want to learn. I want to know how people live without royal stuff you have to follow." George exclaimed, still watching Dream cook. They both stayed in comfortable silence until George asked another question. "What's your name?" "Dream." He simply answered as he placed the hotdogs on the plates.

After they ate, Dream led George into his room and told him to sleep on the bed while he'll sleep on the floor. "Um...Dream.." Dream turned to George. "C-can we...sleep t-together?" George said shyly. "Pft, what are you a baby?" Dream giggled "N-no! I'm not a baby! I just keep on having n-nightmares every night..." "Hmm... What kind of nightmares? I bet it's about dinosaurs-" "Suicide." Dream froze. "Everyday I see myself falling off a high place, stabbing myself, choking to death, even eating myself up." George spoke coldly. Dream hesitated a bit and went to lay down beside George on the bed. Dream placed his arm on George's waist. George, on the other hand, placed his hands on Dream's chest. They both cuddled in each other's arms, feeling their warmth. "Goodnight,George" Dream whispered.

Dream woke up seeing George mumbling "George?" He called at him concerned. "George." he called again, now shaking him a little. "George? George! Wake up!" George woke up with sweat visible on his face. "George, are you...okay?" Dream asked with concern in his voice. George tried to calm his breaths down and wiped his sweat away. Once he calmed down, Dream asked "Do you want to do anything today?" "What do you do on a daily basis?" George wondered while Dream got out of the bed. "Well... around this time...I would be either doing a mission my boss assigned me or go around the forest. There's a flower field nearby if you want, we can go there." Dream suggested.

George looked down and thought about it for a second. 'Maybe looking at the flowers would help me calm down and take my mind off of the nightmare I had... ' George stood up from the bed and faced Dream. "Can we...go there?" George reached out his hand to Dream. He took George's hand. "Of course we can." Dream said with a smile.

They went down the forest, Dream holding George's hand, and saw a field with different kinds of flowers. Dream dragged George to a big tree in the middle of the field. He sat down, George following after, and started making a flower crown. George being George asked him "What are you doing with the flowers?" "Making a flower crown. Do you want me to teach you?" George nodded silently and sat down beside Dream.

George was a fast learner and was able to make a flower crown successfully. "Good job George! Now for the last step." Dream placed his flower crown on top of George. He smiled sweetly at him, creasing his cheek. George was blushing as he placed his flower crown on Dream. He stared at Dream's mask that's hiding his face. "Why do you hide your face?" He asked, brushing his hand on the mask. "Criminals hide their faces, idiot." Dream chuckled "Can I see your face?" George asked, moving closer to Dream. "What- No way. You don't need to know anyway. It's not important." Dream pushed George away a little.

George pouted at this but soon changed to curiosity when he saw a black rose near him. He picked up the flower and noticed there were more to his right. He then started to make another flower crown with it, even though there are some thorns pricking his fingers, and wore it removing Dream's flower crown from his head in the process. "Dream, how do I look?" George said tugging Dream's shirt. Dream blushed as he looked at George. He was thankful that he's wearing a mask to cover it. " You look...pretty..."he mumbled to which George didn't understand. "What?" "I said you look pretty ugly" Dream looked away now a blushing mess.
