Hello and welcome to the first chapter!
Please enjoy- also there are no TWs this chapter, unless mentioning someone is dead is one. You are all loved and please stay safe :)"George, you know what happened. There's no way you can change it," Alex said. "But there is. You guys just aren't listening to me," I tried telling him and the others, as I fiddled around with the little black box in my hands. It was something that Dream bad given to me before he- Sapnap started talking.
"Alright, then what's the way? How are we supposed to get Dream back?!" Sapnap asked, frustrated. "It works like-," I accidentally dropped the box that was in my hands and I just look down, thinking. After a moment I pick it up and start over. "It-," As I was trying to speak, I was cut off by Sapnap.
"He's dead George. I'm sorry you think you're the only one hurting. We're hurting too, you know," Sapnap said. "Sapnap, just listen to what George has to say, after all Karl can go back in time so don't think that a way to get Dream back is impossible. George, come over to my house later, I want to know what you wanted to say," Alex said to me. "Alex, thank you, but maybe another day," I replied. I couldn't be here anymore.
After that stupid argument, I just wanted to get away. So I went to the place where Dream and I always went. To the treehouse we built together. I climbed up the ladder and went inside. It had been a few months now since Dream had dissappeared/died. We don't really know what happened to Dream that night.
The treehouse reminded me of Dream, that's why I went here. I looked at my phone. It was only 4:20 p.m. (I'M SORRY LOL) I remembered that we had snacks in this little cupboard that Dream had made so I got a banana from it.After eating the banana I realized I was a little tired, so I decided to sleep a bit on the chair in the treehouse. And that's when it happened.
Normally I don't get a lot of dreams, especially when it's just a nap, but I got one. In the dream, I was in the sky, surrounded by clouds.
"GEORGE!" I heard Dream call my name, but how was that possible? I started looking around, and there he was, with a beaming face that I could tell had been crying earlier. "DREAM! How are you in my dream? What happened to you a few months ago?" I asked him as I started- well flying I guess?- towards him.
When I got to him I hugged him as hard as I could. "George I have been waiting for you to get a dream forever! You see when Karl accidentally blasted us with that machine he had tried building to stop the inbetween, you were all knocked out. But not me. See, I got teleported here, I'm guessing for leverage against Karl, but I can't escape. The only way to communicate with someone is to go into their dreams, and you can only choose one person's dreams. I chose yours of course." He smiled at me and hugged me back.
"Yeah sorry, but I'm one of those people who don't get dreams much. Maybe because you're my dream, Dream," I say as I laugh. He laughs too, but I see he's holding something back.
"Dream, is there something you're not telling me?" I asked him. He sighs. "You said I was gone for a few months, right? Well apparently one month in your time is equivalent to one year here. I don't age in this place though. But it's hell George. A few years without you has destroyed me, and- and you're back but only until you wake back up again. Then I'm alone until you dream again." His smile is gone now and he just looks at me, barely any hope or life in his eyes. "George remember me," he said.
And that's when the dream started ending. "NO WAIT! I DONT WANT TO LEAVE! DREAM! DREAM- I STILL HAVE THE BOX!" I yelled as I started being sucked down and out of the dream. But it was too late. The dream ended and I woke up.
Well I guess the plan to get Dream back I tried telling Sapnap and Alex earlier would definitely not work. The only person who could get Dream out of that place would be Karl, since he has had experience with the inbetween. Only problem was, Karl was traveling through time at the moment. He wouldn't be back for another 6 months. Another 6 years.
I looked at my phone. It was only 5:05 p.m. I had to try and dream more often.

I just realized this is why George sleeps through events on the dsmp lmao. Also, sorry this was kind of a short chapter. The next will probably be longer.
