Car Rides

George's Pov:

"It means that I never stopped loving you" I say as I look at dream.

"George, how am I sure that I can get the same love from you that I give to you? How am I supposed to be sure that I can trust you again?"

Knowing that I've broken his trust makes my heart ache but I know I can't just avoid this conversation forever.

"You don't have to trust me dream but do you think you can at least try? I'm not saying that everything will be back to normal how it was before but I can't keep going on knowing I could have lost you."

He stares at me with a blank expression. I get ready to break the silence but I get interrupted by being pulled into his embrace. I let myself melt into the hug and I rest my head on his shoulder.

"I'm willing to try again." Dream says with a muffled voice. He pulls his head away from mine and he looks into my eyes, silently. I cup his face in my hands and pull his lips to meet mine. He seems shocked at first but his eyes fluttered shut and he let himself relax.

I pull away from our kiss to catch my breath but quickly feel his hand on my face, pull me back into another kiss. This kiss felt as if he was more confident in it. Our lips moved in unison as I ran my fingers through his hair. Lips already red, dream pulls away from me and just smiles as he catches his breath.

"I really missed you George"

My face immediately flushed red and my stomach flips. I pull him in for one last quick kiss and we just sit there for a few seconds.

"You don't think this is a little fast? I mean, we just started talking again." I ask in a quiet tone as I look towards the floor.

I feel Dream's thumb on my chin and he lifts up my face to look at his eyes. "George, I've said this once and I'll say it a million more times if I have to, I'm willing to try again with us. I mean, I know that one of us might get hurt again but I'm going to try to do everything in my power to make sure that it's me. You can break my heart into a thousand pieces George, do whatever you want."

His delicate words make me feel comforted. I pull him into my embrace and I feel his arms wrap around my waist as mine wrap around his neck. I place my face in-between the crook of his neck and we stay in each others arms for a while, sitting in silence. While still in each others arms, Dream starts a new conversation.

"Hey, how about we go do something?"

"What did you have in mind?"

"Well, I know that the fair is in town again, wanna go with me?"

I nod my head to accept his offer and we separate and I get up from his bed.

"Okay, I'm gonna go to the living room so you can get dressed." I say with a smile as I walk out of his room.

After about 45 minutes, Dream walks into the room, hair still a bit wet from his shower, wearing black cargo pants and his merch. My breath is taken away for a split second but I manage to not let him notice.

"Ready to go?"

"Mhm" I say as I get up from my seat on the couch. 

He gets his keys from the counter and he opens the door for us. I walk over to his car in the driveway and sit down in the passenger seat. He starts the car and connects his phone to the car to play music.

Out of my league plays on the stereo and I unintentionally start bobbing my head to the beat. Dream looks at me and let's put a giggle. I assume that as a way to go along with me, as soon as the lyrics started, Dream started to sing the lyrics out loud.

Forty days and forty night
I waited for a boy like you to come and save my life, Dream switches the lyrics as he sings.

All the days I waited for you
You know the ones who said I'd never find someone like you

I laugh with him and he lightly nudges my shoulder to sing along with him. I give in and start to sing along with him for the next lines.

'Cause you were out of my league
All the things I believed
You were just the right kind
Yeah, you were more than just a dream

You were out of my league
Got my heartbeat racing
If I die, don't wake me
'Cause you are more than just a dream

We laugh together and we continue to listen and sing along with the song as we continue our car ride.

A/N:
I feel like I needed to write a note at the end because of me no updating the story for over two months. I promise that I'll at least try to upload chapters weekly again but I felt like I hit a brick wall with ideas for what I wanted this chapter to be. Anyways, thank you to all of the people who have taken the time out of their lives to read this book! Have a good day or night, wherever you are in the world <3
