"Wakey wakey sleepy head!"
George opened his eyes, rubbing the sleep out of them. "Five more minuitessss pleaseeeee!"
"Oh come on now, we don't want to miss the bus! Do you want a shower? I've already done so the bathroom is all yours."
George sat up, blinking a few times. Where was he again? Oh, right.
"Yes thank you, where is the bathroom?"
"Just down the hallway, I'll grab you some clothes that don't fit me anymore. No point in throwing them out when you can have them."
"Oh thanks!"
"No problem, also you can grab a towel out of the cupboard."
"Alright," George walked into the glistening bathroom, locking the door and stepping into the warm shower, fully waking up as the hot water hit his pale skin.
Knock knock "I've left the clothes just outside the door!"
"OK thanks!"

The two boys sat at the kitchen table, each eating a bowl of cereal. They were discussing how a person could have the audacity to put milk first as two familiar faces came into the room.
"Uh- good morning," Harriet said as she followed Drista to the fridge.
Dream and George shared a smirk "Didn't know you were staying the night as well Harriet~"
"M-mum said I could stay too seen as though you were! Wouldn't be fair otherwise."
"Hmmmm...have fun?" Dream asked.
Drista eyed her older brother "What is it to you, huh?"
"Oh, nothing. Just remember, the age of consent is 18 in this country-"
"DREAM! SHUT UP WE DIDN'T DO ANYTHING WE JUST...-"
"Hm? You just...?"
"...shut up."
He laughed "Don't worry, your secret's safe with us, right George?"
"Mhm mhm mhm," George nodded, grinning.
They finished their breakfast together, Dream quickly washing up. "We better get going George, have you got everything for school?"
"yep!" George picked up his bag, slinging it on his shoulder and putting his shoes on. The clothes Dream gave him were slightly too big, but suited George very well. "Thanks for the clothes again, are you sure I can keep them?"
"Of course! I can't fit in them anyway, so you may as well have them!"
Dream put his shoes on as well, picking his bag up and opening the door. "See you later!" he called to his sister.
"Byeeeeee," she replied.
They started walking down the road to the bus stop "Thank you for having me, sorry I didn't get to say it to your parents. It was kind of rude of me to leave without saying goodbye to them-"
"Aha don't worry George! You're all good. I think they like you, so there is nothing to worry about."
George sighed in relief.
"Quick! I think thats the bus, we better hurry!" the taller started running. "Race you!"
"Hey no fair you got a head start!" George started running after his 'friend'.

"I'm glad you're better George, we were worried about you!" Quackity said at the lunch bench.
