2 months later...

It had been two months since George left. Clay and Sapnap have spoken to him, but not enough. Today was November 1st also known as, George's birthday.

Clay arrived to school like no other ordinary day, except George wasn't there. George wasn't there to talk him down, George wasn't there to help him with anything he struggled with. But Clay wasn't by himself, he has Sapnap. He was nothing like George though, well they had the same sarcasm. Clay walked to his locker like every school day and something caught his eye. Sapnap was standing in front of George's old locker, no one had claimed it yet.

"You know it won't bring him back" Clay said beside Sapnap, looking at George's old locker.

"I know, but today's different" Sapnap sniffled "Today he turns 18, old enough to live by himself."

"If only he turned 18 sooner" Clay said and he heard Sapnap sniffing and he put his arm around him "It's okay, we have each other."

Clay kept his promise to George, he took care of Sapnap. He made sure he never felt alone...

"We do have each other it's just weird without him, you know?"

"Yeah I get it, I feel the same way."

"Hey Clay can I ask you a question?" Sapnap asked.

"Sure, you can ask me anything" Clay said.

"Did you ever thought about George more than a friend?" Sapnap asked.

"My sister keeps saying I do and I kept denying it, but I don't know I never really thought about it."

"Well if you do think about it, what would you say?"

"I'm not sure anymore, one time there was a little spark but he's gone now" Clay said.

"You know he loved you."

"He did?" Clay said.

"Since you two started talking."

"Wow, only if he told me sooner I might've actually say yes" Clay sighed.

1 day later...

It was daytime and night time by Clays house. George was back in the UK at his aunts house. Not long ago she got new neighbors, they seemed nice. George was at the park looking around the area.

"Hi!" Someone yelled from behind him, it made George scream.

"Please don't do that!" George yelled back.

"Whatever man, I'm Tommy your neighbor" Tommy put his hand out, and George shook it.

"Im George" George said "Tommy?" George whispered cause the name sounded familiar.

"Yup that's me."

"Do you anyone named Clay or Drista?" George asked.

"Drista yes Clay no, oh are you talking about Big D if so yes."

"Big D?" George said.

"Yeah Dream but I call him Big D, his real name is Clay" Tommy sat next to George "He is Dristas brother."

"So you do know them?" George asked.

"Yes there my online friends I play Minecraft with them" Tommy said "Do you know them?"

"Yeah actually before I moved I lived nearby, we're good friends."

"Actually in a few I am gonna play some Minecraft with Drista wanna watch us."
