Before I start! The art on the cover isn't mine! I found it on tiktok as "free pfps " so I used it for this. But now enjoy the story!

It was an ordinary day for george. Sitting on a loud bus full if students, nobody next to him, music from his phone to headphones in his ears. He was the first stop on the bus, so he had a long ride to school and back. As he was listen to music looking out the window, he felt someone sit next to him.

"Do you mind if I sit here? "

As he turned around to see who it was, he said that he didnt mind.

He turned around to see a tall, dirty blond, with emerald eyed boy was sitting next to him. He nodded turning back around to the window.

They got to their lockers, seperated. George got what he needed for class and went right before the bell rang. He sat in the back, isolated from the other students in class.

He was the "quiet kid" in school, but nobody really knows why.

George knows though. Ever since his mother left him with his terrible excuse of a father when he was five, he was never the same. As he was looking out into the distance as students, he saw the same boy the sat next to him on the bus.

"Hey" George said Hesantly.

"Hey" he replied "dream.. " he said.

"Geroge" he replyed

Dream sat in the row in front on the back row, on the opposite side of George.

"Alright class. Be quiet. " the professor of the class announced " **school stuff idk** "

As the bell rang, the professor gave out the homework as people were walking out.

Dream and George went to their lockers, and again, separated.

At the last ten minutes of class, the professor announced to the class that they were getting dorms.
"I didn't even know this was a boarding school-" George muttered to himself not knowing the the professor had heard him.

"Well it just turned into one, this month. Your parents must not have seen the email." The professor told George.

"Oh." George said embarrassed. He was happy that he would get dorms, so he didnt need to live with his "father."

"You will get them in a week" the professor told everyone. "The principal will give you the key to the dorm and tell you your roommate. "

George sighed as he got on bus "one more week.. " he told himself

"Do you WANT dorms? " he heard someone from behind him say.

George turned around to see it had been dream.

"Well.. Kind of. My " father" just sits around and when he's drunk he-" George stopped. Why would I tell him about my problems? Especially what I was about to say.. George thought to himself.

"What... What does he do..? " dream asked concerned.

"N-nothing.. I meant my friends dad. But know she's with her mom. She's okay.. " George lied to dream.

Dream knew he was lying, but he didn't want to start anything. Besides, he would be safe not living in the same house as his father in a week...

Right?

George listened to music after dream got off the bus. At his stop, he turned off his phone and hid it. His mother sent it to him knowing he might need it if his father gets "too drunk. " he didn't want to loose the ONE thing he had left of his mother. He got off the bus, snuck into his house and into his room.

He locked the door, did his homework, and at 5:30 he got ready to go to work.

George worked a long shift, but it pays alot and he is able to grt free food there. he worked at dunkin, 6-11. he gets paid 14$ a month,which for him was ALOT. he had 1 or 2 friends there. their names were Alex and Evonie. they were sisters. they were his Only friends, they were his world. 

right when he was about to leave, he accedentally step on a loose floor board. it was so loud, it had woken his father up. 

george tried to run down the stairs through the hallway, through the kitchen, and through the living room out the door.

but he wasnt fast enough.

his father grabed him by the back of his shirt and turned him around.

"where do you think your going?" his father yelled into georges face

"w-work.." George replyed fearfully

"Where the fuck do you work and since when? " his dad asked yelling louder and more angry

"Si-since last year.. I'm supposed to get a job at 13..usally.." George said scared

George's dad dropped him on the floor like a shirt.

"Wake me up again and it'll be something way more painful. " his dad said turning around going back to his room.

"O-okay.. " George muttered going out the door

George sighed.

Why couldn't dad just realize that it's not my fault that mom left..? He wondered the entire walk to work

When he got to work, he saw Alex and evonie standing at the cash register. They waved to each other, and George started working.

"You weren't THAT late, but why we're you late? " Alex said approaching George

"My dad.. " George mumbled

"Oh.. I'm sorry  **:\** " Alex said feeling really bad

"It's okay.. It's not your fault. " George told her

"Alright, we should work now" George told her

"Alright" she agreed.
