Say My Name // Dreamnotfound

"I knew this would happen!" Celia exclaimed. George just rolled his eyes but in the inside, he was freaking out. Confused about what had just happened. 'I must be dreaming. Right?'

His thoughts were interrupted by a knock. It was his mom. She had heard muffled talking coming from Celia's room and was wondering what had happened. "Mom we're fine, just talking about George's day at school" Celia explained. George nodded in agreement showing that she was right. Their mom left after a while and so did George. He walked to his room through the hallway. He was just about to jump on to bed but felt a buzz near his pocket.

He got a text.
From Clay.

Clay: Hey, um about today, can we please just forget about it?

George was in shock. How could he just 'forget' about what just happened. His best friend kissed him! He knew he couldn't say much so he just decided to leave him on seen. He'll answer later.

Back to reality, he laid in bed for a good 15 minutes, just scrolling through twitter and sometimes tiktok. 'I should probably start posting on there more...eh whatever maybe next time' he thought. Then he saw a notification, first he decided to just ignore it but then took a look at who sent it and saw... Clay.

George mentally rolled his eyes and went to the text.

Clay: George, I know you're mad but please, at least answer my texts.

George, again, mentally rolled his eyes and found himself yawn. Again, he ignored the message and decided to get ready to sleep.

The next morning was not a great one. The sunshine from the outside had woken him up before his alarm went off. He tried going back to sleep but couldn't so he grabbed his phone from the nearby table and adjusted his eyes, squinting at the bring screen for a good 10 seconds. He scrolled through his notifications, Sapnap went live, so did Wilbur and Ranboo. He kept scrolling until he stopped at a certain couple of messages. Clay had messaged him over 20 times apologizing at around 2 in the morning and so on. 'Shit.' he thought.

To George, the best solution was to just ignore him for the rest of the day, or until he has thought of something to say to him. He sighed and got up, getting ready for school. He knew he was a bit early but didn't mind, it just meant he had more time to relax and eat breakfast.

After getting ready, he headed downstairs, his mom was awake and he assumed that his dad was already at work. He said his good mornings to his mom and ate some breakfast. He settled on some cereal. While he sat at the counter, scrolling through his phone, he heard footsteps from the stairs and looked that direction, seeing his sister had come down. George got up whilst Celia grabbed a smoothie their mom made and they both headed to the car. George got up to the drivers seat and Celia went to the passenger seat besides him.

They both settled on Celia playing the music and drove off. Celia was playing 'The Real Slim Shady' By Eminem.

Once they arrived at school, they both made their way inside and went their separate ways. George realized that his friends were probably waiting for him but then also realized that Clay was most likely going to be there too so decided to just head to his locker, grab his books for the day and go to class early. He still had around 5 minutes before class had started.

"Good morning Ms. Lynn." George said with a small smile. She smiled back "Good morning George, I see that you're early today! You can get started on some warmups on the piano" She said. George simply nodded and made his way to the keyboard in the back. Usually, he would be using headphones but since there was no one in class, he decided that he'll wait until class starts to put in his headphones.

He was playing for a good minute until Ms. Lynn walked up to him and put her hands on top of his. George slightly shocked, quivered a bit but then continued. Ms. Lynn helped George in some new warmups. She was standing over him trying to move his hands around the keyboard, showing him new note combinations and such.

Once the bell for first period had rung, she walked away and George plugged in his headphones, hoping Clay wouldn't notice him too soon.
