I Think I Love You - DNF

Chapter Ten

Hello I am back with chapter ten... yay? Anyway I am so excited for this chapter - George is on the plane to Florida :] ENJOY and yea... also don't worry I am going to add a bit more Dream POV later in the story but at the moment it just fits to talk about George if you get what I mean. 

—————————————————————————-

George's POV 

I woke up to a blinding light - squinting at it I could sort of make out the shape of a person holding a torch  or something like that in my face. Blinking to stop my eyes from hurting I could hear some giggles and then an almost silent count down. 

"SURPRISE!" I sat bolt upright now completely awake. I was surrounded by 7 people who to the point of almost creepiness were standing around my bed. Taking a minute I could recognise all my friends that I was leaving behind today. Tommy and Tubbo were standing near my head with Tommy holding a torch and Tubbo trying not to fall asleep standing next to him. Wilbur, Niki and Jack were standing at the base of my bed, Wilburs hair was a mess like he had just woken up however Niki and Jack looked like they had had about 30 coffees. Finally Philza and Kristen were at the door smiling at the scene in front of them. I could hear faint laughing coming from my phone and I realised that I must have slept the entire night on a call with Dream who was laughing as he listened to my hyperventilating. Revisiting the conversation I had last night with Dream and especially the last thing that I said to him I turned bright pink. 

"Goodbye Dream - I will text you as I am boarding." I said with a laugh in my voice. I pressed the hang up button and looked up at my friends who honestly just seemed like they wanted to hang out before I left. 

"So um what time is it?" I asked hesitantly - quickly trying to calculate how much time I had to catch my flight. 

"Waaaaaayyyy too early." Tubbo said with a yawn. Tommy hit him on the shoulder which earned a slap across the back of the head from Tubbo. 

"It's 7:30." Tommy said with a surprisingly awake voice. 

"Wait that means I only have 45 minutes to get to the airport. Shoot." I threw off my bed sheets and rushed to the bathroom where I found clean clothes laid out. Sticking my head out the door I looked around at everyone who started clearing out my room and once again I had that pang of gratitude for my beautiful family. I was going to miss them so much. 

Having a quick shower and getting dressed I practically flew into the kitchen, nearly falling over at the buffet that was lined up on my bench. There was waffles, pancakes, bacon, eggs and fruit. As well as an assortment of cereals, toppings and different drinks. I was flabbergasted. Everyone was standing around waiting for me to start filling up my plate and I didn't hesitate. Barely a second later everyone was climbing over each other to get to the food they wanted and I couldn't help but laugh. 

I was quiet the entire breakfast and drive to the airport. I barely said anything as my entire group of people collapsed from exhaustion in the terminal, we made it through airport security longer than expected because Tommy got randomly chosen for a drug search and he kept on saying the dumbest stuff. It was about 30 seconds of sitting down with the group before my flight got called for boarding. This was really happening. I looked around at all the glum faces and starting walking towards the furthest person from me Niki. 

"I am going to miss you so much George." She said as she pulled me into a tight hug. I nodded tearfully.

"I am going to miss you more." I said holding back tears. Niki took a step back and I approached Jack. Who pulled me into a hug.

"You'll be right, text me when you land?" I nodded and hugged him tightly. Next I walked up to Wilbur who had his arms out ready to hug me. 

"You better call every week, you can't just leave me here alone with those two and not contact me." I laughed already choked up about leaving. Next I hugged Kristen.

"Take care of yourself yeah?" I nodded slight tears dripping down my face. Leaving Kristen I hugged Phil. 

"Be careful and brave. You can do this!" At this I started properly crying, really nervous about leaving but knowing it was the right thing to do. I walked up to Tubbo who was crying as he looked at me. 

"I expect photo's and I expect attention if you ever come back to visit." He said with a laugh. I was going to miss him. Finally I got around to Tommy who was trying to make himself seem braver than he really was. I pulled him into a hug and he started squashing me as he hugged me back. 

"I'm going to miss you Tommy but I really need to not die before I get on that plane." I mustered all my courage not to stay with my family here but knew that it was the right thing to do as I pulled myself out of Tommy's arms and walked towards the gate. Turning back quickly I smiled softly with tears in my eyes as I said goodbye for a little while to everyone. 

It took me a while to find my seat, I was the isle seat in a row of three and when I arrived I noticed the window and the middle seat were occupied. In the window seat sat a girl probably 15 with long blond hair who was staring out the window. Next to her sat a guy with jet black hair that almost seemed blue. He looked around my age but I wasn't quite sure. The girl and the guy had matching gold bracelets on though that was about the only similarity between the two. The girl wore jeans and a completely worn out Rolling Stones Shirt with converses. She had earphones in and seemed mesmerised by something going on outside. The guy in the middle seat was also wearing jeans but his were black and had rips at the knees. He wore vans and a black well fitting turtle neck. He had rings and chains on as well as a bunch of studs in his ears. He had big blue head phones on and seemed distracted with playing with one of his rings. 

I sat down on my seat and almost immediately noticed that the guy sitting next to me started looking at me. Without really anything else to do I decided to make eye contact and maybe make a friend. Looking over at the guy I noticed immediately his electric blue eyes. He smiled at me and held out his hand. 

"Hi, I'm Luca." The guy said, I noticed that he had an off accent - like English wasn't his first language. 

"Hi, I'm George." I said with a smile. 

The flight to Miami took about ten hours and I didn't sleep at all. I spent the entire time talking to Luca and the girl sitting in the seat next to him, his sister Amelia. Turns out that Luca and Amelia were from Italy but were moving to Miami like me. I was right Amelia was 15 and Luca was 22 and they were very interesting people. Amelia played in a pretty famous band and Luca used to represent Italy at soccer until he gave it up to follow his passion of becoming a lawyer. 

I was fascinated and intrigued by every little thing that they said but every time Luca talked or accidentally brushed my hand I felt a weird feeling in my stomach that I had only ever experienced when talking to Dream. After talking for what felt like 5 minutes the Flight Attendants told us that our plane was landing. At this point Luca asked if he could have my number and all of a sudden I felt really nervous. I have been on heaps of planes before - why am I all of a sudden scared. I gave Luca my number and the plane landed but I still felt this nervous, giddy, happy feeling. Maybe I was just going mad. 

I walked with Luca and Amelia to the taxi area and they asked if I wanted to share a cab to my new home. I shook my head and responded quickly. 

"No sorry my best friend is picking me up here so- WHAT THE?" I felt my legs being lifted off the floor by strong arms wrapped around my waist. Struggling I tried to break free and when I was finally put down I turned around angrily to see who picked me up. 

There he stood.

The guy from my phone. 

The picture guy. 

The hot guy.

My best friend

"DREAM!!!!!!" I yelled throwing myself back into his arms as I wrapped my legs around his waist and pressed my face against his hair. I felt a few tears slip down my face for no apparent reason but probably because of the feeling of safety and warmth. He smelt like vanilla and mint. 

He smelt nice.
