Dream's POV:

It had been a week since we all came home.

Tommy found his family and stayed with them for a bit, but then went with Tubbo. They wanted to move in together, just as they had always planned.

Wilbur and Niki had drove around, Niki had showed the other what was new around the place, and he's currently staying with her and Puffy.

Karl and Sapnap are all caught up, happy in each other's presence. They couldn't get enough of each other, a proposal was bound to happen soon.

Schlatt and Techno, well, nobody knew what they were up to, and we didn't want to.

George and I, however, we've been getting closer. We've been spending almost all of our time together, and that time was spent in restaurants, aquariums, the beaches, and tons of other places.

I had feelings for this guy, and I wanted to be with him. Plus, I have a few suspicions that he may feel the same way for me.

I wanted to do this in a perfect way. I wanted to ask him to be with me. It was worth a shot, right?

We were currently at Sapnap's place. It was around dinner time. Karl and Sapnap were in the kitchen making dinner, whilst George and I were sitting on the couch and watching the television.

"So, George." I start. I'd like to ask him out on the beach, so I figured i'd ask him if he'd like to go first.

"What is it?" He responds, turning his attention from the TV to me.

"Would you wanna go to the beach with me tomorrow? Around 5, maybe?" 5 was George's favorite time. Sunset.

"Oh, sure!" The man smiles. "That would be fun!"

"Perfect! Sounds good." I smile as well.

"Sounds like a date." George teased, leaving a tiny on my cheeks with the comment.

"Only if you'd like it to be." I respond.

"Then it's a date." He winks.

Hours later, i'm about to head to bed for the night. It's late, around 11pm. Sapnap and Karl had just headed in for the night, and to my knowledge, George is still in the living room.

I'm nervous, excited, happy, and scared for tomorrow. I'm gonna ask George the question. I just hope he says yes. I mean I already know that he likes spending time with me, he's never turned me down. That's already a good sign.

Anyways, I decide it's best for me to head to sleep, and stop daydreaming about what could happen.

I was already waited at the beach for George. He told be that he'd probably be here a bit later, since he had to drop something off with Wilbur.

I only had to wait around 20 minutes, which isn't bad. Once I see the man walking toward me, I smile.

"Hey. How'd it go?" I ask, referring to the task he had just done.

"Good, Wilbur was happy with it." George responded.

With that, we enjoy each other's presence for quite a while. We ran along the beach, found pretty shells, took a swim.

It was now dark, and all the stars were out. The only light we really had was the moonlight, shining a bluish color onto George and I's faces. Blue is a good color on him.

"So, George.." I look out toward the sea, leaning on a large rock. "I've had a question that i've been meaning to ask you for a while now."

He steps closer to me, curious. "What is it?"

"Well.." I take a deep breath. Here goes nothing.

I turn my head to look toward him, deciding to be straight forward. "George, the thing is, I like you. I have for quite a while now, and I just wanted you to know that. The question being... if you feel the same way, if you'd l-"

George smiles brightly, pulling me into a hug, taking me by surprise. "I like you too, Dream."

I smile. "So.. does that mean..?"

"Yes. I'd be happy to be you boyfriend." He chuckled. "You don't have to be so formal."

"I am not formal!" I protest, a pout coming across my face.

"Oh, shut up." He grabs my cheek, and gives it a light smack. "And stop pouting, you have a hot boyfriend now."

"I guess you're right." I jokingly sigh and roll my eyes.

Suddenly, George takes my hand. It makes me smile, and I interlock our fingers.

We're now both looking out toward the sea, squeezing each other's hand, letting the other know that we're here, and that this moment it real.

I'm comforted by the squeezing, and I know he is too.

That we're here. We're alive, We're healthy...

... and we're happy. Together.
