Tw: second hand embarrassment

Dream had would you would call 'oral fixation'
Not the kind that makes you take up smoking, or other unhealthy habits, but more like the kind that baby's have. For example, Dream always wanted something in his mouth.(😩)
He'd often chew on gum, hoodie strings, strands of loose hair, stuff like that.

Dream found it really embarrassing that he constantly needed something in his mouth, or he would get fidgety. His past partner made fun of it, so he attempted to hide it from George. It worked through their whole friendship. He never knew. Once he came to America, George found out pretty quickly.
Dream tried his best to get rid of this childish habit, but he was too accustomed to it. It would be too strange to have his mouth still. Especially after 22 years.

When dream and George started dating, George noticed more and more how his boyfriend coexisted with him. He never knew anyone over the age of 3 years old, who still had this little habit.

He'd notice Dream moving his tongue around in his mouth, making clicking noises, or a sound that sounded like a bubble popping. Dream knew, George knew, about this embarrassing quality that he had, but also made no effort to talk about. I suppose it wasn't a big deal, but an interesting conversation to start.

George knew. He knew his now boyfriend was a bit childish, but he found it endearing.

One late night in June, George and Dream were watching a movie that they had started awhile ago, but never finished.

Dreams ADHD wasn't letting him sit still so he was playing with George's hand. This was something he'd do a lot when he got fidgety.

The blondes mind was wondering. He was absolutely zoned out. Utterly lost.
And out of habit, he subconsciously moved the hand that belonged to George; to his mouth.

He gently nibbled(?) still zoned out thinking it was his hand. Of course, he realized not even 3 seconds later, that it was actually George's hand.  The Floridian was so incredibly embarrassed. He just bit his boyfriends hand. God.

George on the other hand, was shocked. Not in a bad way, but in a way that he knew he could mess with his boyfriend.
"Dream? What were you doing?"

As expected, no response. Dream only turned his head away from George.

"Oh I get it, you're flustered."

Dream let go of George's hand, pretending to not notice the fact there was a light tooth mark from his mouth.

"Dream~ what were you doing?"
"I'm sorry.."
"Oh you don't think I haven't noticed; have you? I see when your chewing on your sleeve, or how when you're nervous, bite the side of thumb?" George cooed.

"This is embarrassing" Dream groaned as he pushed his face into George's chest. If you compared him to a rose, than he'd be redder. I don't think he could be anymore flustered. This dumb little feature, was causing him so much embarrassment. Almost pathetic.

"I have an idea of what you could put in your mouth, love~"
"George!"

Now they were both laughing. Dream was laughing at himself, and George. The thought that George knew this whole time, made him giggle.

"You're cute, dream"
"Shut up"
"You are!"
