GEORGE'S POV:

I wait for Dream outside the school, early for once. We haven't talked since Saturday, which worries me. Soon enough, I spot his lime hoodie in the crowd. I rush towards him.

"Hi," I say, falling into step besides me.

"I'm sorry about the call," He says, as I say "I'm sorry, I shouldn't have said that,"

We laugh. I grab his hand, and we walk into school. I stop outside my locker, and Dream waits.

"You can go, you don't need to wait," I say, opening it.

"Why?" He responds as I open my locker. I pull out some textbooks and shove them in my bag.

"Thanks," I say, slinging in on my shoulder and walking towards class. He puts his arm around me and grins.

"That's what I'm here for,"

I slouch in my seat. Really. I glance at Dream, who makes a face. History, the worst subject, and now we have a massive project. And we don't even get to choose groups.

"Right, groups," The teacher starts rattling off groups.

"Group 4: George, Jack, Tommy, Tubbo and Niki,"

I pause. Not too bad a group, but I get the feeling Tommy will do absolutely no work.

Dream is in a group with Bad, Skeppy, Techno and Puffy. Considering the project is on reveloution, I feel like we both have decent teams.

I pick up my stuff, and walk over to Tommy and Tubbo, where the group seem to be congregating.

"Hello," I say, pulling a chair up.

"Hello," Niki says with a wave.

"Gogy!" Tommy and Tubbo say at the same time. Jack laughs, and nods in my direction. We're doing the project on revolution, I gather from looking at the board. Niki pulls put a sheet of paper and some pens.

"Right, we need to plan this out and give roles. We need researchers, writers, creative people. Who wants which?" She says, scribbling a list of names.

"I'll research," I offer. The others take roles and I pull out a textbook. I start taking some notes, but get distracted. Tommy, Tubbo and Jack are talking about something, and Niki is taking notes.

"What topics should I research," I say, looking at Niki. She looks at her paper.

"I'd thought, maybe what a revolution needs, what causes one, and examples of a successful one. Maybe we could do a case study?" She answers.

"American Revolution!" Tommy gasps. "Hamilton!" He sings, Tubbo joining in pitchily. I wince. I look at the clock, and see that there is half an hour till period change. This will be the longest half hour of my life.

Wrong. Me and Karl have been waiting outside the school for what seems like an eternity. Finally, after 30 minutes, Dream, Sapnap and Quackity run out.

"What did you guys do to get a detention?" I laugh. Karl and I had had a study period together, and the other 3 had Chemistry.
"Wait," I freeze.
"We had the Minecraft thing,"

We all rush back into the school, twisting and turning. We pile into the computer room.

"Hi," Karl says awkwardly.

"Hello boys. Glad you finally remembered," the teacher says dryly.

"Sorry, we all had detention," Dream says as I sit in front of the computer I was at last time.

"All? Well, don't get Monday detentions in future," He says.

"I can't believe you said that," Karl hisses. Dream laughs. I log on to Minecraft and join the server. I'm glad to see the mushroom house I was building is still safe.

"Dream! Can you get me some iron?" I ask. "You can live with me," I add on.

He chuckles and nods. Score. After I do a complete check of my base, I head to where the others had started building. Clearly, they had focused on... not house building. A cube with a flat roof sits in the middle of a clearing. They're nowhere to be seen, so I start doing some home improvements for them. After about 5 minutes, I see a nametag approach, and I sprint back to our house. We all mindlessly play for 45 minutes, till half past 5.

"Right! Time to go home! Hope you enjoyed it, and see you next week! And no detentions," He says pointedly. I feel blush creep across my face, and Dream slings an arm around me.

"Yeah Gogy, no detentions," He mocks as we leave the classroom. The other 3 are still in there, but said we could start heading home.
