Kidnapped

Chapter 75: Skephalo's Secret

Dream POV

It was starting to get late as the sky darkened and the air got colder.

We had been on the beach all day hanging out but we needed to go back to the hotel to get ready for our meal.

I was still yet to have a word with Quackity and Sapnap but I planned to whilst George wasn't around.

We all make our way into the hotel, all of us taking the stairs so our mums could take the lift.

George's mum had told us that our taxis would be here in 30 minutes.

"I'm showering first" Karl says as he walks into their room.

"Me too" George says, walking into our room.

"Dream can you meet me in our room when you're ready?" Bad asks.

"Yeah sure" I smile as him and Skeppy walk into their room.

I watch as Quackity and Sapnap are about to go into their room and pull them back.

"Hey!"

"What the hell"

"Not so fast, we need to talk" I say, then shoving them back into their room and closing the door.

I glare at them as I watch their facial expressions change.

"Listen- I can explain" Sapnap starts.

"In what fucking world made you think you could get answers out of George like that"

"Even if I didn't get any answers out of him he still left the hotel today" Sapnap says with a shrug.

"Nick you scared the shit out of him and that's what you're going to say to me?"

"I didn't mean to okay, I didn't know he would react like that"

"What did you expect?" I ask and receive silence from both of them.

"What did you guys expect to happen when you go against the ONE thing I asked you not to do" 

"We're sorry but sometimes George just needs a nudge in the right direction" Quackity finally speaks up.

"There are better ways of doing it"

"I realise that now" Sapnap says in defeat.

"I want you guys to apologise to him and don't ever do something like that again"

"Okay" Quackity nods.

"You're lucky I'm being nice" I say before seeing Karl walk out of the shower in a towel.

"I'll leave you guys be"

I leave the room and walk into mine, closing the door behind me.

I see George sitting on the bed in a towel, his eyes looking up to meet mine.

"You okay?" I ask.

"You can have a shower now"

"That's not what I asked" I say as I sit beside him.

"It was just a flashback that's all, I'm gonna change now"

"Still not an answer to my question"

"I will be" He says as he takes out my black smile hoodie.

"Isn't that dirty?" I ask.

"Uhh no, besides I'm wearing it anyway" he says, taking out another pair of grey joggers.

That was one thing I noticed a lot more with him.

It was always baggy clothes, even if we were going out somewhere.

"I'll be quick" I say, making my way into the bathroom and leaving it unlocked.

I always left it unlocked incase he needed me or if I needed to get out quickly.

I discarded my soaking hoodie beside his one on the floor as well as my shorts and boxers before rinsing the sand off my body.

It only took me a little over 5 minutes before I stepped out and wrapped a towel around my waist.

I step out into the bedroom and see George laying on the bed on his phone.

I grab some black joggers with clean boxers and put on a black shirt and hoodie.

After putting socks on as well I join him on the bed, laying down and looking at him.

"What're you doing?" I ask.

"Just speaking to Wilbur, they think they've found another trace of Ranboo"

"That's good then" I say.

"Yeah they just have to follow the lead and hopefully it's not another dead end"

"I'm sure they'll find him" I smile and he nods.

"I need to go see Bad quickly, I'll see you at the lift in about 10 minutes?"

"Sure" He says, looking up from his phone briefly so I could plant a kiss on his lips.

I put my things into my hoodie and slip my shoes on before leaving.

I make my way over to Bad's room and walk inside.

"Hello?" I say when I see no sight of either of them.

"Dream!" I hear Bad shout before he walks out of the bathroom dressed and ready to go.

"You wanted to speak to me?"

"Right uh, I wanted to ask you something on behalf of both Skeppy and I"

"Okay, ask away" I say, closing the door and leaning against the back of it.

"Would it be weird if Skeppy and I started...dating?"

"Woah wait, really?" I ask, my mouth dropping.

"Yeah we spoke about it a few months ago but neither of us were ready, but now George is back and we're all friends again we want to give it another go" He explains.

"I mean I don't know if I was the right person to ask but of course it wouldn't be weird!" I say, giving him the biggest hug.

"Well I mean apart from me you're the only other person who has some kind of control over the others and you're the only one of us who has come out"

"I guess you're right, does this mean you guys are dating?"

"Yes" Skeppy says, walking out of the bathroom and over to us.

I give him a hug before looking at the pair of them.

"So are you going to tell everyone at dinner?" I ask.

"Well we want to tell the others but I think parents is too soon" Skeppy explains and I nod.

"Congrats guys" I smile.

"Thank you" They both smile back.

"Now I don't want to ruin the moment but I'm so hungry I can't concentrate" I laugh.

"Yeah me too let's go" Skeppy agrees as we follow Bad out the door.

Skeppy and Bad?

I should've known they liked each other.

I mean thinking about it now I can see all the signs.

It was so obvious.

And yet everyone was still absolutely clueless about George and I dating.
