Flower boy

7. Early

George POV:

I woke up feeling the wet pillowcase under my chin. I glanced out the window. It was still dark out and I looked over at a still very heavy sleeping Sapnap. I sighed and laid down again trying to go back to sleep but gave up after a little bit. Looking out the window I decided to get up and go outside. Just to try and get away from everything. I headed over to the window and opened it.

The night air filled my lungs as I took a deep breath while looking out over the garden. Then I saw something moving in the garden. Who or what was that? I mean it could be a deer or something. But I don't think deers are that big

I made a quick decision to investigate. I started climbing out the window as quietly as possible trying not to wake Sapnap up. Since he would wanna know what the heck I was doing. The window was not too far up but it was still far to the ground. After managing to climb out and now I was hanging on the ledge of the window. Dangling out the window I let go of the ledge.

Landing with a big thud on the ground I stood up and started walking around trying to find the strange figure again. I had no idea why I wanted to investigate. To be honest it was kinda stupid. But who cares, I couldn't sleep anyway.

Then I heard something behind me. I quickly turned around to see the strange figure again. It started running when it saw me. " Hey! Come back!"I yelled, chasing after it. I managed to come close enough to jump onto the strange thing running around in my garden. I tackled the thing to the ground and I was now sitting on it.

"What do you want from us?!", I said in a threatening tone. "Calm down! I'm just looking for something i forgot here!", that voice was familiar wait is that.. "clay? Is that you?", I said "yes George it's me", he sighed. I turned a bright red and immediately got off him. "I'm so SORRY", I said.

He laughed and told me it was alright. "What are you doing here In the middle of the night though?", I asked him. "May I ask you the same thing?", he giggled."I asked you first!",I replied and laughed as well. He told me he had forgotten something and wanted to come get it. "in the middle of the night?", I said.

"Okay maybe I couldn't sleep '', he finally confessed. I mumbled a 'I knew it' under my breath. "okay but now you tell me why you're out here!", he said, crossing his arms. "same reason as you, couldn't sleep", i said and smiled at him. We started walking in the garden enjoying the flowers in the pale moonlight.

It was cold out but I didn't really mind. I mean it's not every day you get to walk with your favorite person through the garden, in the middle of the night. Then I remembered something. "Clay i had something i wanted to give you", i said

He turned to me. "Here you go, it uh reminds me of you..", I said, handing over the green bracelet I got at the market today. I put it in his hand as my face turned a bright strawberry red. He looked at me with his emerald green eyes. "stay right here", he said and ran to the supply shed. Which was not the reaction i was expecting to say the least

Did he not like it? I mean I would take it back if he didnt. It would be very humiliating though. Was it weird that I gave it to him? oh no what if- "George! im back", clay interrupted my thoughts when he came running back. "i know it's not much but here you go", he said and smiled at me and handed me something. It was a flower crown, covered in pink roses and green leaf branches.

"Wait here, let me put it on '', he said and put the flower crown onto my head. "There we go '', he smiled at me. He looked absolutely perfect, the moonlight shining on his face and the wind lightly stroking his hair. He must have noticed that I was staring at him because he waved his hand in front of my face.

"Oh! sorry i zoned out", i said and laughed awkwardly. Clay laughed with me and smiled again. "Well guess I have to get going, see you tomorrow!" ,he said and waved at me walking to what I guess was the direction to his home. "yeah! see you!", i said waving back. When he was out of sight i wanted to scream. I promise I'm going to cherish that flower crown forever.

Then I realized I was still outside in the garden. In the middle of the night with a flower crown in my hands. I went over to the window again trying to figure out a way to get in. I mean I maybe could push myself up if I grabbed onto the window... Wait, isn't there a ladder in the shed where clay got the flower crown?

I quickly went over to the shed to look for a ladder. I switched the light on and looked around before I saw it standing in the corner. I pulled it out of the shed and switched the light off. As I walked up to the window I heard something behind me. I turned around but everything looked the same as it did before. "probably just the wind", i mumbled under my breath

After I placed the ladder down I climbed up and crawled through the window. Making sure I didn't wake up sapnap. Carefully I put one foot after another onto the hardwood floor. Closing the window behind me I sighed. I put the flower crown onto my desk. Sapnap would probably wonder where it came from but i'm too tired to think of that right now.

I went over to my bed and collapsed onto it. I really wanted to sleep now. I pulled the blanket over me and tried to go to sleep, for the second time. This time, surprisingly it took like 5 seconds for me to fall asleep.

It was probably because of Clay
