hello again! i'm back in school, so i'll hopefully be able to update a bit more! this'll all be in lowercase, as i am too lazy to use actual capitalization lol. i've been invested in the dreamsmp, so i decided to write a oneshot and see how it goes! this will include some swearing, as will most of my other oneshots
i am NOT shipping irl people, just their mc personas, and i will not be using sapnap and dream's real names because 1: i don't feel comfortable doing so, and 2: sapnap isn't comfortable with his real name being used in ff's :) this will be from a third person pov
cw: jealousy ig? if you squint, you can barely see it, repetition
as george was pushing the cart into the store a few strides in front of dream and sapnap, he saw someone he hadn't seen for years: his ex.
just keep walking, don't make eye contact, just keep walking, don't make eye contact, just keep walking, don't make - fuck. george thought to himself, accidentally making eye contact with her.
"GEORGE!! oh my god!! i haven't seen you in forever! how are you??" a high pitched voice basically yelled across the bread aisle.
"hi, miranda. i'm doing quite well, how about you? anything new happening?" george said in a sickly sweet tone seeing as he didn't really want to talk with people other than dream and sapnap at the moment, voice slightly muffled by his mask.
"no, nothing new. wait! i got a girlfriend! her name is alexa and we've been dating for a few months!" miranda replied, her voice filling with excitement about her girlfriend.
"oh that's exciting! i also have gotten a boyfriend; two actually! they're amazing! they're here actually, would you like to meet them? obviously don't feel obligated to if you don't want to!" george replied excitedly, eyes lighting up.
"sure! where are they?" miranda asked, facial expressions changing.
"i'll text them to come over here!" george said, pulling out his phone. right as he did so, he heard his name called from a voice other than miranda's.
"GEORGE! are you alright? we thought we lost you!" a man with brown-ish hair said, facial expression exasperated.
"sapnap! no, you didn't lose me; and yes, i'm alright! where'd dream go?" george said, smiling underneath his mask, glad to see one of his boyfriends.
"right here! there you are, we've been looking all over for you! who is this?" dream said, towering over the other three.
"oh! this is my ex-girlfriend, miranda! miranda, these are my boyfriends, dream and sapnap." george introduced, noting how miranda's eyebrow slightly quirked.
"nice to meet you miranda! wish we could stay longer, but we've been out fairly long and our dogs need to be let out. nice meeting you!" dream said, setting both of his hands on sapnap's and george's lower backs. as they were walking away, george noticed miranda looking at sapnap weird. he shot a 'smile' back at her, though he was really just glaring. who the fuck checks out another person's boyfriend when they say they have a girlfriend? they made it to the check-out, and scanned all their things. they always had a system when they went to the store: george handed things to sapnap, sapnap scanned the items and handed them to dream, and dream bagged the items.
george was quiet the entire car ride home, which was only about 20 minutes, which was weird for him.
"george, are you alright?" dream asked from the passenger seat, slightly turning his body to look at george. george's reply consisted of a 'mmm' and a shrug, which was very, very worrying considering he was always singing to the songs that were played from dream's playlist.
"what's wrong? i can tell something IS wrong, i just want to help. george, please talk to me." dream said in a stern but slightly concerned voice, still making eye contact with george.
"nothing, i'll tell you when we get home." george said in a defensive tone, surprising both dream and sapnap, as george never gets snappy or sarcastic.
about 5-10 minutes later, they arrived at their house, cash running up to sapnap and pawing at sapnap's lower legs.
"hi bubba! i missed youuuuu! how were the girls?" sapnap said, using a higher-pitched voice to talk to cash. george walked right past them and flopped face-down on the sofa, sighing deeply. he felt a booping on his arm, and when he lifted his head, he saw patches tilting her head and staring at him, seemingly worried.
"it's fine patches, it's nothing i can't handle mentally by myself." george mumbled, petting patches with his right hand and squeezing a pillow with his left.
"george! what's wrong? you said you'd tell me when we got home." dream said, picking up patches and holding her in his lap.
"ugh, it's so stupid, but i saw miranda checking out sapnap and there was this, i don't know, burning-slash-pounding feeling in my stomach? i don't know, it's so stupid." george said, quiet enough for dream to hear, but not sapnap who was in the room over.
"george, that's not stupid, it's so valid. it's called jealousy, peach. it'll all be okay. hey sapnap, come here a sec?" dream said, the words going straight to george's heart and mind, his feeling of jealousy starting to go away.
"yeah, what's up?" sapnap said, entering the living room from the kitchen.
"is it okay if i tell him?" dream asked george, leaning down a bit so george could hear him. george shook his head 'yes' in response, giving dream permission to tell sapnap how he felt. "george saw miranda checking you out in the store earlier, and he was, and still is, jealous." dream explained, sapnap's expression softening even more from his neutral face.
"awe, george. it's okay, love. dream nor i would never ever cheat on or leave you, okay? i love you so much, and that will never change." sapnap comforted, sitting next to george's head and brushing through george's hair with his hands.
"i love you too. both of you. i'm sorry, that was kinda stupid if i'm being honest. i don't even know where that came from; it just came out of nowhere." george explained, lifting his head again, and flipping over on his back. "can we watch a movie? like 'luca'?" george asked, eyes wandering around their living room decòr.
"of course we can. i'll grab the popcorn. could you grab the blankets dream?" sapnap said, doing the 'white-guy stand up', slapping his hands down on his thighs and pushing himself up.
"on it."
and that's a wrap! haven't done this in a while and it feels so great holy shit
