Dreams POV:

I turned on the tv and we both decided on which movie to watch together. George chose Shrek, I mean I'm not judging but I sort of wanted something romantic to see how George felt about me. While I was deep in thought, it felt like Shrek was staring at me through the screen as if he heard me thinking. I giggled at the thought and George turned to me.

'Hi.' I said while staring into his sleepy eyes. I took the blanket that had been slowly slipping down and wrapped it around the both of us as I scooted a little closer to him. He lent into me slightly and I took this as a cue to bring him into a cuddle.

I reached my arm around to his shoulder and pulled him close to me, he melted into my touch and lent into my side slightly. I could tell that he was hesitant but I wasn't sure if it was from being uncomfortable or just being nervous.

'Are you comfortable with this Georgie?' I asked. I moved to give him some space.

'Wait stay. Of course I am.' He sounded scared of me leaving, as if I'd ever leave someone as perfect as him.

I moved closer to him again, this time being more direct therefore George could just sink into the cuddle rather than not knowing what to do. I put my arm around his shoulders and brought his head to rest on my chest. His arm snaked around my torso and brought me even closer. He felt so warm and soft. His chestnut locks tickled my neck and I felt a happy breath escape from my lungs.

I ran my fingers through his hair and felt his breaths get deeper. Before I knew it, he had fallen asleep in my arms. How does someone fall asleep so quickly? I debated wether I should wake him or carry him up the stairs. Shrek and I were currently having a staring contest so I had to do something.

'Georgie..' I whispered as I tapped his shoulder. No response. We're gonna have to do it the hard way.

I lifted myself up and let him sink into the sofa. I put away our food and turned off the movie before heading towards him. He looked so peaceful as his lips were slightly parted and he let out small breaths. I manoeuvred my hands round his body so I could carry him bridal style up to my room. I have a double bed and Drista would be mad if I let George sleep in hers so it's the only option.

During the walk upstairs, George started stirring in my arms, he opened his eyes and looked into mine. 'You fell asleep, I'm just taking you upstairs.' I whispered to him. He put his arms round my neck and brought himself closer to me.

I made it to my room and led him on the bed, at this point he had woken up a bit more and he smiled at me and tapped the empty space next to him. I turned off the lights and crawled under the covers next to his small body. He shuffled closer to him and rested his head on my chest while wrapping himself around me like a koala bear. I giggled and tightly hugged him.

We both slowly drifted off and through the night stayed roughly in the same position, despite George sleep talking about random things that made no sense at all.

George's POV:

I jumped at the sound of an alarm clock unfamiliar to my usual one. I felt a hand rested on the back of my head while my face was comfortably led on someones chest. Dream, I realised and smiled.

Dream groaned at the sound of the alarm and i could feel it from beneath me. He slowly lifted us both up and turned it off. I looked at him and laughed at his messy hair, he grabbed his phone and took a photo of me to show me that mine looked even worse.

We both got out of bed and didn't exactly address the cuddling situation. For all I know, he might do that with all his friends. I might talk to Sapnap about it at school today. He knows Dream the best.

I walked over to Dream who was rummaging through his clothes drawers, he pulled out a collared shirt and a faded navy sweater. 'None of my pants will fit you since you're small,' he stifled a laugh 'Are your ones from yesterday okay?' I nodded, they'll do for today. I walked to the bathroom and changed into my clothes.

I walked out to see Dream dressed too, he was wearing a presumably green sweater and blue cuffed jeans. He looked up to me and brought me to his dressing table. He took my hand and looked back and forth between his sets of rings and my hands, eyeing up to see if they would fit.

He slid a few on and luckily they fit perfectly. 'Wear these they look good on you.' he said with a smirk and walked downstairs. This man is killing me.

We quickly rushed breakfast as we were running late. We quickly ran out the door and speed ran the walk to school.

— skip till lunch time

'Georgeeee!' A familiar voice called from behind me. They ran up from behind me and jumped on my shoulders. I knew exactly who this was.

'Karl!' I said laughing 'Hi Karl.'

'Hi gogy!' He said.. gogy? That's a new one. 'I brought the nail varnish, do you still want to do it?' He asked while showing me all the colours that were scattered around in the bottom of his bag.

'Yes! Absolutely. I'm so excited.' I said while smiling at him. He led me over to our normal lunch spot, it was empty as Karl and I were out a bit earlier than the others. He set out all of the colours and allowed me to pick a combo.

Since Karl had a lot of blue and purple shades, I decided to go for a different shade of those on each nail. Starting with light blue fading into purple. He got all of the colours ready and more of the group came to the table.

Dream came and sat next to me, he watched us as Karl steadied my hand in his to put the colour on. He had a strange look in his eye.. as if he was jealous? He wouldn't take his eyes off of mine and Karl's hands almost interlocked on the table.

'Do you like the colour choice Dream?' I said to bring his gaze away from our hands. He must've just realised that he was showing his jealously as he quickly snapped out of it.

'Yes I love them!' He exclaimed as he made eye contact with me.

Karl finished one hand and I admired them. 'Thank you! They look so good. Look Dream, aren't they cool.' I held them up to him and he took my hand in his to look at them.

'You look go- they look good. Yeah.. I uh yeah I like the colours.' He got so flustered it made me laugh. Who knew Dream would be one to get flustered this easily.

Karl finished up the other hand and I thanked him again. I showed everyone on the table my new nails and they all loved them. I had a conversation with this new member of our group, his name was also George but they all called him Spifey. His fashion sense is amazing and we spoke about him coming shopping with me one time so he could help pick out outfits.

During lunch, Spifey mentioned a party he's having this weekend. His parents are away and I've heard that his house is huge. We all said that we'd go and I'm really looking forward to it.
