Dream and his best friend, Sapnap, have always been the bullies of the school. They didn't care about learning or the people on the building, but until one day when a kid showed up it sparked a sense of hope into Dream.
Changing his sense of realit...
Dream looked around for sapnap. Thinking, he sighed then walked to the bathroom. Opening the door he saw him sitting in the floor, head deep in the toilet. He had drank too much. As per usual. "Sapnap, get up. We're leaving." "Nah dude. I'm good I'm good." "Clearly not! Let's go. Now!" "Don't yell mom. Jeez!" Dream helped him up then walked to the car. They drove off.
Arriving at George's house, dream stops the car. "Um dream? What the hell are we doing at George's?" "Just.. just give me a minute. Ok?" "Fine. But be quick, I don't feel so good." "If you are gonna puke do not do it in my car. That's nasty" He nodded.
Dream walked up the front door and knocked. Through the house walls he could hear a male's voice. "That's probably the pizza! Brb karl!" So george is here with karl, and they ordered.. pizza.
A young man opened the door, George. The money in his hand had fallen to the floor. "D-dream?" "Hey.. George." "Um look I didn't mean to just ditch you guys! Karl wanted to leave so I did with him-" In a different room you could hear Karl yelling. "No you wanted to leave not me!" "Karl!" "Be honest dude."
Dream scratched the back of his head. His blonde hair ruffled. "So uh anyways. It's okay, I just wanted to make sure you got home ok." George smiled. "Thanks."
An awkward silence began between them. George fidgeted his hand. "Uh you can stay over for pizza if you want?" He said breaking the silence. "Oh thanks, I would but y'know I got sapnap in the car, and he doesn't feel the greatest, so I better get him home. Thank you though" George's face shifted to a barely noticeable frown. "Okay."
Sapnap jumped out of the car. Acting like he was about to puke on the grass, he stabled himself then walked over to them. "I'm soo down for pizza." "Alright! Come on in then." He smiled. Guess we are eating with George now. Oh and Karl.. Directing them inside, George shut the door behind as they made their way across the living room. "Welcome to my home, the pizza should be here soon I think." "Bet this place is sick! You're rich Greg." "Sapnap! It's George" "Oh I'm sorry-" He turned to George. "Grey my apologies." Dream slapped his forehead. George laughed.
Karl came out of the bathroom only to notice two other human beings along with George. "Oh. George?" "Oh Karl, this is dream and Sapnap remember? From the party" "Yeah I remember. How could I.. forget." Sapnap laid across the couch. "Wait I thought it was Gogery?" "Sapnap is that even a name? Sounds like you are mispronouncing grocery store." "It's George. Get it right. And get your feet off the arm of the couch .. you slob." Karl had stepped in. He was done with sapnap's bullshit. "Jeez." "Woah woah dude let's calm down! That's my friend you're talking about." "Yeah, so?" "So watch what you say." Dream stepped a bit closer to Karl. "Ugh! George they are horrible people. Why'd you invite them anyways?" "We'll-" "I came to make sure George got home okay. He asked us to come in, but that's fine. We were leaving anyways." He walked over to Sapnap and grabbed his arm motioning him to get up. The two of them walked to the front door. "Wait- guys. Just stay!" George looked at Karl desperately. He rolled his eyes.
George quickly walked to the front door. "Dream please, stay." He stopped mid way out of the doorway. The softness of his voice... the desperacey.. ugh. Turning to George, he looked at Karl who stood behind. "Karl doesn't like us." He looked back at George. "I don't want to ruin any friendship you have with him just over us, some popular kids." He sighed. "Goodbye George."
He grabbed dream's arm. "Stay. The pizza is gonna be here anyways and we won't be able to eat it all." "I told my mom I'd be back by 12. It's 11:52. But thanks." He looked down. "Oh. Must get going then?" "Yup." "Bye." "Bye George."

He pulled up to his driveway. Sapnap fell asleep in the front seat. Laying back, he turned up the music and jammed for a few. It's nice.
After, he shut off his car and got out. There was no reason to be back by 12, that was just another excuse to leave. Walking to the other side, dream managed to get Sapnap up just enough to walk up the stairs and into his room.
Both laying down, dream got a notification on his phone. It was a text, a text from George. He picked up his phone and began typing. For the next few minutes, they chatted.

Sending the final message, he clicked off his phone. I'm glad he texted. Turning to his side, he closed his eyes and drifted to sleep.

Sunday, April 2nd. "A helper."
Dream had woken up long before sapnap did. He changed out of the clothes he wore to the party, brushed his hair and teeth, then walked out the front door. Hopping in his car, he decided to drive to the skate park.
Arriving, not as he expected, he saw George. To make it less awkward, he walked to the puppies across the street. Petting one, he felt a tap on his shoulder. It caused him to jump the slightest.
"Did I just scare you?" Laughed a boy. Dream smiled at the voice. "We'll yeah George." He said as he turned around chuckling. "Whatcha doing here?" "Well I decided to go say hi to the puppies. I do it sometimes" "Oh nice." Dream nodded. "Oh, hey have you ever tried skateboarding?" "Nope. And never will i" He laughed. "What! It's so fun come onnnn" He tugged at dream's arm. "George I don't know about this..". "It'll be fun. Plus if you fall, I'll be right here to catch you." "Fine, but you better be there to catch me then" "Mhm"
George helped dream step onto the board. Holding each other's arms carefully they looked up. Their eyes locked. Wow. I don't feel.. uncomfortable? "Okay, ready? I'm gonna let go" He nodded.
Letting go of their hands, dream stood on the board. "Hey I'm doing it" "Nice- now i don't think you'd be ready for tricks, so start by trying to move around by pushing with either your left or right foot." "Okay."
Moving around for quite some time, Dream started to get the hang of it. He stepped off.
"I'm a professional now." George laughed, it was a soft raspy one. Ooooh. "Haha you sure are dream." He smiled. "Want to come back to my house? We can play video games if you want." "Sure. As long as Karl-". "Karl doesn't live there y'know. And my parents are gone for the weekend." "Oh okay. You need a ride there?" "Sure, if you don't mind. Karl usually does that but I can just tell him I got a ride. Thank you." "No problem"
Hopping in dream's car, they drove away from the park listening to some music.
