Ch. 5- All around me are familiar faces

Dream's POV:

Waking up today was a lot easier than yesterday. First of all I wasn't stressing about school as much, seeing as he had already made friends and basically shared a schedule with one and all the classes I was in, someone I knew was in there too. Except for one. It made adapting to a new school so much easier and quicker. With those thoughts running wild in my mind, I had already showered and brushed my teeth. I picked similar clothes to yesterday, the same pants, makeup and accessories, just with a black v-neck t-shirt that's loose at the bottom messily tucked in. Same makeup as yesterday, twenty minutes until I gotta get going, I'm on a roll. I decided to made scrambled eggs on avocado toast. Thoughts about my channel, George, the new school, new friends, old friends, how they would get along and etc. etc. Before I even realized it, I was putting on my black converse and walking out the door. Thinking about all of this would simply make my brain explode, so my liked songs on Spotify it is.

"Hey Dream! Ummm, what was that Twitter thing about? With I'm guessing you and George?" Karl came up to me and asked. Right, George's friends must follow him on Twitter, that would only make sense.

"The Twitter... Oh! That thing yeah, umm pretty short story even shorter, we both kinda have channels, and needed some content. I had to film a video yesterday but Sapnap and big Q are always busy on Wednesdays so I couldn't record with them. I was thinking of asking one of you, but then George messaged me this. *I showed Karl the messages we exchanged* Then he just called me on Discord when I got home and accepted his friend request, explained that he needed to film a video, I said I'm in the same boat, we showed our channels, filmed, sent each other our POV'S and talked in VC a bit. It's always good publicity to create chaos on Twitter, and so we did" I explained to him in a total of seven breaths.

"I-um-wow-that's..." Karl was trying to comprehend what I had just spewed out.

"The chaos on Twitter certainly worked" Tommy replied for him. I hadn't even noticed the whole group had gathered around us.

"Hey guys, um, what's going on? Why are you all gathered around Dream?" George asked extremely confused (A/N the suggested word after extremely was homosexual I'm-) for a good reason.

"Oh Karl asked him what the Twitter thing was about" Tubbo exclaimed like it was the most obvious thing in the world.

"So he explained from about the beginning pretty briefly" Ranboo continued Tubbo's sentence for clarification.

"Okay, that makes sense, Dream, what classes do you have today?" George asked me.

"First I have Mr. Bad's history class, then Mr. Skeppy's art class. After lunch I have Ms. Cara's biology and lastly Mr. Philza's music. (A/N for context idk how American school works so all school days are gonna start at 9am, 1½ hour class, 10 min break, 1½ hour class, 40 minute lunch, 1½ hour class, 10 min break and 1½ hour class, then school ends at 4pm.)

"I have Skeppy's art and Philza's music" Niki said.

"So do I, I have the same except Bad's history" said George.

"I got Cara's biology and Philza's music, Techno also has Philza's music" Wilbur continued.

"So none of you have Bad's history?" I asked, all of them shook their heads. "Can you show me where his class is?" I continued, hoping not to get lost on my first day.

"I can, I have Fundy's math and it's pretty close" Niki said. You would not believe the amount of thankfulness I had for her, I would simply commit marriage fraud if she had to move out of the states and couldn't get a visa to travel freely.

"Thanks Niki" I said in a way you could hear my smile even if you couldn't see it.

"Okay, now let's get going, see you guys later!" Niki signaled me to follow her and so I did, not before giving everyone a quick wave and bye.

"So here it is, my class is pretty close, I'll show you the way to Skeppy's art after class, then you can follow George around since you two have basically the same schedule today" she stated, and waved walking away and I returned the wave.

I was a couple minutes early, so I just walked in. That way I could pick a spot with no one next to me, as I doubt anyone will sit next to me. I was walking towards the back of the class but accidentally bumped into Bad.

"Ah shit, sorry, didn't mean to" I quickly apologized.

"Hey, language! Oh, I haven't seen you around here, are you new? What's your name?" Bad asked curiosly.

"Oh, yeah, I'm new, I go by Dream, only my mom calls me Clay, I moved here this summer with my family" I replied, suprised at actually handling a slightly uncomfortable situation without internal panic.

"Well Dream, I hope you settle in well, remember that you can always turn to any staff member in case you need help" Bad said, smiling.

"Thanks, I will" I answered walking to the back of class.

A student walked in last minute in a white button up and a pretty brown skirt, offering me an oddly familiar smile and sitting in the only free chair left, the one next to me. I returned the smile, still wondering what the familiarity is about.

"So now we are going to start working on a group project. It is going to be a collaboration with me and Skeppy, as this is going to be done in two parts. You will be doing a project about art history, and more specifically the renaissance. You will cover the different art styles of the renaissance, signatures of different artists and more about the specific pieces of art in Skeppy's class. In my class you will cover how it impacted the society, what impacts the society had on it, the culture around art and artists. You will be working with the person sitting next to you in this class" he explained to us.

"So, better start getting to know each other, as this project will be worth 20% of both your history and arts grade" he continued to the increasingly frustrated students.

"Well since I'm doing this with you, I'm Eret, what's your name?"

"Oh, um I'm Dream, I mean that's what everyone calls me" I replied. 'Great way to introduce yourself Dream, like the nervous wreck you are'

"Hi Dream, what are your pronouns?" Eret asked me in a calming voice.

"I go by he/him, although I don't mind if people use they/them, what about you?" I answered sounding much less nervous than I had just a moment ago.

"I go by any pronouns, nice to meet you! You're awfully familiar, but I can't put my finger on why" he stated after answering me.

"So are you, we definitely know each other" I continued, the conversation flowing naturally. Before I even realized, class had ended, and Niki was here to walk me to Skeppy's classroom. I waved to Eret, deciding this was something I want to talk to my mom about.
