Drift Away (Dreamnotfound)

Chapter 2

It's been about a week since I sat with the blonde boy in the garden. I haven't been able to go out because I've been busy with treatment and such. The nurses won't leave me alone. Yet, I've still been able to look out my window everyday to see the garden. The blonde boy shows up at 10:00 am each day.

This morning I woke up, knowing I didn't have anything to do. So I planned on seeing that boy in the garden again. I picked up my phone to check the time. The time read 9:35 am. Shoot, I don't think I'll have time to eat breakfast. Oh well, I better get ready. I fluffed my hair and put on a hoodie. I grabbed my phone and I was on my way. I walked toward the hall leading to the back door of the hospital.

Suddenly, I felt someone tap on my shoulders. I turn around and see that it's the blonde boy.

"Hey, I haven't seen you around. Are you also heading to the garden?"

"Yeah actually." I responded. My heart started to pound rapidly.

"Could I walk with you then?" He asked.

"Of course."

We started walking out of the hospital doors when he said,

"I don't think I got your name. You can call me Dream."

"Oh, I'm George."

I felt my face get red as he said, "That's a beautiful name."

We finally made it to the bench in the garden. We both sat down next to each other. I glanced over to see Dream staring at me. I didn't know what to say so I looked down at my shoes.

"So why are you at the hospital?" Dream asked.

I looked up at Dream and replied, "I have a mystery disease that hurts my organs. What about you?"

"I'm just visiting some family. I'm staying here for a while though."

"Are you going to that movie that's happening in the dining hall later?" I asked.

"I will if you are." Dream replied making direct eye contact.

I felt some blush rush across my face. What a flirty response.

"Sure." I looked back down to hide my red face.

"Sounds good. Can I pick you up around 8?"

"Yeah, My room is 304." I replied, still looking down.

"It's a date. See you then." I felt him get up to leave.

"Mhm." I responded as I looked up to watch him walk back to the hospital doors.

What just happened? A date? My face was still completely red.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

A couple hours passed as I impatiently waited for 8 to roll around. I check my phone and the time read 7:59 pm. Suddenly I hear a knock. I quickly fluffed my hair and opened the door. There Dream stood in the opening. He is wearing a casual green hoodie and black sweatpants. His blonde hair looked exceptionally good today.

"Are you ready to go?"

"Yep." I responded.

We walked in silence right next to each other as we made our way to the dining hall. We opened the doors and went to the concessions.

"What would you like? My treat."

"I'll just have some twizzlers and popcorn. Thank you."

"My pleasure." Dream replied with a smirk.

Dream paid for our candy and popcorn. We walked to two open seats next to each other. We sat down as the movie started. It was some sort of Disney movie. I reached in the popcorn bowl only to bump into Dreams hand,

"Oh sorry." I quickly whispered. I felt a familiar blush go across my face. Dang it. Why do I keep blushing?

The movie went by and I didn't even realize that I fell asleep. I opened my eyes to see the credits of the movie rolling. My head was rested on Dream's shoulder. I felt that he was also sleeping and his head was on top of mine. I felt so comfortable and I really didn't want to move. A nurse walked over and tapped on Dream's shoulder.

"Sir, the movie is over."

I felt Dream's head rise up as he replied with a sleepy voice, "Oh, Thank you."

I lifted my head and looked at Dream. He was cleaning up the mess of our stuff we had made around us. I started to help him. I noticed Dream look at me and smirk. We both sat up.

Suddenly Dream says, "Could I have your number so we can text and keep in touch?"

"Sure." I said, as he handed his phone to me. I quickly typed in my phone number.

"Thanks." Dream said as he grinned.

"Do you want to head back to my room and play some games on my computer?"

Dream nodded his head, as he said, "Lead the way, Gogy."

"Gogy?"

"Yeah, do you like it?" He asked.

"Sure, Dreamy." I said in a sarcastic voice.

We both let out a quick laugh and I led him through the halls to my room. We both walked into my room.  I spoke up,

"Sorry about the mess."

"Oh I don't mind."

I got on my computer and Dream pulled a chair over to sit next me. I opened up minecraft and Dream gave me a questionable glance.

"What game is this?" He asked.

"Minecraft! It's one of my favorites, want to try it out?"

"Sure." He replied.

I switched chairs with him, so he was in front of the computer. Dream sat down and I helped him get into a bed wars match. I told him the basics of the game, but he looked a bit lost.

"How do I speed bridge?"

"Like this." I replied.

I placed my hands on top of his. I could see him smiling through the corner of my eyes. I clicked the mouse with his finger beneath mine. I started speed bridging with Dream's hand under mine. Somehow we didn't fall into the void.

We continued playing for a long time, but it didn't feel long for me. I looked over at the alarm clock on my bedside table, it read 3:24 am. I looked over at Dream, he looked very groggy.

"I better get going." Dream said with a very tired voice.

"Yeah, see you later."

Dream walked out the door. As soon as he shut it I turned all of the lights off. I jumped onto my bed and layed down. I blushed at the thought of today. I can't wait to talk to Dream tomorrow.
