Hidden

Lies

(George)

He entered the house which, for now, was also his home.

Dream always kept it so clean in the house. Everything was neat and organized.

"Welcome home... again" Dream said following his words with a small chuckle.
"Thanks roomy" George said back
"Ok if you want to keep living here, never say that again"
"I won't" George replied forcing a smile

He carried the boxes into his room.

The bed was nicely made and the room smelt of flowers on a spring day.

George walked out of the room and followed Dream out the front door.

They had rented a van because having to make a bunch of trips from house to house would be inconvenient.

The moving van was not filled. It only had his gaming set, pictures, books, bedding, extra things for the house like plates, clothes, and small items.

They hauled everything into George's room leaving a mess of boxes.

"That's about all" Dream said falling backward onto the couch.
"Yep I think so" George replied hanging his arms around the back of the couch.
"So when are you gonna break up with her?" Dream asked his voice turning very serious.
"What?"
"When are you breaking up with your girlfriend?"

George's breath hitched in his throat.

I'll make sure you'll never see him again

"I-" George stopped "I'm not"

Dream quickly snapped his head around facing George.

"What the hell do you mean?!" Dream yelled standing up and walking around the couch so that he was right up by George.
"I mean I'm not breaking up with her!" George yelled back to hide the fear that was quickly building.
"Are you DUMB?!"
"No, I just LOVE HER!"

Lies.

"WHAT ARE YOU HIDING FROM ME GEORGE!??!!!" Dream yelled grabbing George's arm roughly.
"NOTHING! I AM HIDING NOTHING!!!"
George yelled

Lies!

He tried to shake Dream's arm off but his grip just tightened.

"BULLSHIT!!!" He yelled slightly pushing George backward into the couch.
"YOU'RE A FUCKING PSYCHO DREAM!!!!"

LIES!

Dreams face paused before he replied.

"Your girlfriends the fucking psycho!" Dream said pushing George again so that this time he was on the floor.
"I SHOULD HAVE LEFT YOU WITH YOUR DAD!" George yelled out of fear "YOU'RE JUST LIKE HIM!" He continued getting up.

LIES LIES LIES!!!!!

THEY WERE ALL LIES!!!!!!!

Dreams jaw dropped as his face went pale.

George couldn't believe the words that just came out of his mouth.

Tears started streaming down his face. He knows better! He knows that things like that really upset Dream.

George looked up and saw a hand go flying to his face as he was slapped.

He was shocked but knew he deserved it.

Dream had a face of hurt and anger. But did something unexpected.

He pulled George into a tight hug.

"I'm sorry" George sobbed "I didn't mean it"
"I know Georgie, I know" Dream replied back. "I know you're going through a lot and it wasn't right for me to bring that up so fast"
"I didn't mean to say that" George said continuing to sob and tremble.

He normally wouldn't cry this hard to something like that but everything has been overwhelming lately and his emotions were building up.

Expect this time, he broke down.

"Come on let's sit down and watch a movie or something. It's getting late" Dream said.

George didn't want to break away for the comforting hug but knew he had to.

They sat down on the couch as Dream handed him a blanket.

George was tired but he didn't want to tell Dream. He didn't want to mess anything else up.

"You look tired" Dream said looking over at George.
"Hm? No, I'm just- I was upset" George said halfway lying "as you may know" he mumbled.

Dream replied with a small "hm" and started scrolling through the movies.

(Dream)

The couch was small and could really only seat two people. Even then, it was still crammed.

George sat on the far side with his legs curled up to the side of him.

Dream was still mad at him. He knew George didn't mean what he said and just wanted to win the fight, but there was still a part of him wondering if what he said was the truth.

Was he really like his father?

Was he really like the angry, abusive guy he had to call dad?

Was he really becoming what he's tried not to be his whole life?

Dream clutched the side of the couch trying to get rid of the thoughts upsetting him.

Just as he was bought to excuse himself, George spoke.

"Hey Dream?" George started
"Yea"
"Thank you. I know I was a real asshole to you. I'm sorry for all I said. And even after that, you're nice to me."
Dream gave George a soft smile.
"I understand how you're feeling and I'm your friend. I will never hold anything against you."

George smiled back at Dream and they started watching the movie in silence.

About halfway through the movie, Dream felt something hit his shoulder. It was George who was fast asleep.

Or so he thought.

The smaller boy was so adorable.

Dream giggled quietly "sweet Dream Georgie"

But he felt George take a deep sigh before replying ever so quietly...

"I love you Dream"
