It Was Never the End DreamNotFound

Chapter 32

Brief authors note: Do you all remember that scene with the stream in chapter 10? That scene took place in the 1 year time skip of last chapter. :)

DreamXD POV

George404's breathing deepened. DreamXD could feel the slow rise and fall of each breath against his chest. He knew the brunette had been shaken worse than he let on by the day's events. DreamXD held George404 close, relieved he was getting some rest. 

George404 looked so peaceful in his sleep, his ethereal beauty was breathtaking. The way his long lashes fluttered, holding onto DreamXD's arm in comfort, half his face buried in that green sleeve. All of it sent warm tingles through DreamXD's chest, along with a deep possessiveness that claimed this beauty as his. He'd long since realized he was deeply, longingly, in love with George404.

Carefully removing his mask with telekinesis, keeping one eye on George404's sleeping face, he nuzzled the back of the brunette's neck gently.

Warm skin and soft hair held a sweet scent. DreamXD leaned into George404, nudging him gently with his nose. DreamXD felt his eyes close, keeping his senses aware for when George404 would begin to wake up and he'd have to put his mask on again. 

Next Day

"Dream! You muffinhead its good to see you!" BadBoyHalo, a tall man with jet-black skin, equally black hair, and friendly white eyes nearly knocked DreamXD over with his exuberant hug.

DreamXD hugged Bad lightly in response, laughing when the god of building stepped back, his tail whisking excitedly. Bad had black dragon-like wings, thin horns pointing from messy hair, and a thick leathery tail with a heart-shaped tip. He was wearing a black hoodie with red rims that flared at the hips, forming a high-low over black pants. 

"You too, Bad."

"How have you been? I heard you've been practically inseparable from George." Bad's voice was a higher pitch than most. 

DreamXD smiled proudly behind his mask, his face reddening slightly. George404 hadn't commented on their cuddling, simply laying lazily in his arms before getting up to feed Patches. DreamXD had told him he'd be back later, flying out to meet BadBoyHalo for a request. 

"Actually, that's why I'm her-"

"Are you guys a couple? That would be so cute and- oh!" Bad covered his mouth with his hand. "I'm sorry, you can finish."

DreamXD ruffled his feathers, amused. No one could ever hate Bad, he was literally impossible to be angry with. 

"I wanted to know if you can make anything, like maybe glasses, that can fix colorblindness?" 

Bad tipped his head back, thinking. "I don't know about fix, but I might be able to make something. It's rare for gods to have something like that, so I don't get requests often. Is it for George?"

DreamXD nodded. 

Bad's tail whisked, white eyes widening. "I didn't know the muffin was colorblind!" 

"I only found out a year ago." DreamXD still cringed at his own stupidity, when he'd one day teased George404 for struggling to find a matching outfit, the brunette calmly replying that he was colorblind. At least he knows why George404 loves the color blue so much now, it was the only color he could see properly. It pained him that George404 couldn't see the forest in all its beauty, or the flowers he loved so much.

"I'll do my best," Bad promised. "It's sweet of you to do this." 

"Ah, well..." DreamXD hesitated. "About that..."
