George and Dream walked down the street, reaching the florist

They were standing infront of the shop but the sign said 'going out of buisness'

"What?! I didnt know he went out of buisness!" George stated

"Dont worry, we will work around something, but we must do it quick or something ought to happen" Dream took George's arm and rushed him down a dark and narrow alleyway

"What? How are we meant to do something when Karl's store is out of business and we dont know where he is?" George said sounded worried

Dream searched around in his pockets

"Ahah!" Dream pulled out a piece of paper from his front pockets. It was crumbled up and was a small as a pea.

"whats that?" George kept asking alot of questions

"Karl gave me this before he . . . you know . . . travelled me back to the future, but he said not to open it until I need to come back" Dream started opening it up but it was taking forever

"Oh right, that makes so much sense now! Strange man who somehow knows how to time travel gives another man a piece of paper before he does his job telling him not to open it until he needs to come back! Wow! Thats not stupid at all!" George walked down the alleyway, talking sarcastically

"Oh will you stop!" Dream shouted "Im trying to figure out how to unravel this"

Dream finally got it opened

"oh . . ." dream sighed

"what?" George walked back over to dream "Dream! What!?"

George looked at the note:

no turning back now, sorry, tried to warn you

"Oh you idiot!" George let out

"I didnt know, he said he can take me into the future I got so excited i didnt listen to the 'terms and conditions' he knew i wasnt listening so he wrote this!" Dream said

George took a seat on the floor "well what are we going to do now?"

Dreams eyes lit up with an idea

"What?" George asked

"We have to get into this shop, this is were he lives, right up there, see how it twists and turns, his house is that but he lives right at the very top, he hardly uses the other floors, his whole life is the top floor" dream said

Dream and george walked over to the front of the shop
Dream taking lead, opened the door slightly, ringing the bell above that rang very loudly

The both walked inside and walked to the back and opened the backroom door

The took the twisting stairs that kept going and going and wouldn't stop.

It was creaking and echoing as they took every step

———————

They finally reached the top floor which was closed off by a broken, taper up door

"Are we just going to go in? Like just walk in." George asked

"Well obviously!"
Dream still in lead opened the door and walked straight inside

George was hesitant with walking in but he followed in the comfort of Dreams presence

"Hello!" Bellowed Dream

No answer.

"HELLO!" Shouted Dream even louder

A small creaking came from behind a bookcase by the window

Dream gestured to George to follow him quietly avoiding the odd planks that could creak

The walked as quietly yet quickly as they could and finally the stood at the bookcase

"Reveal yourself Karl! We know its you!"

Someone peaked through

"I told you that there is no turning back!" A voice said

"You need to take me and George back intime! Now! Before its too late!" Dream pleaded

Karl stepped out behind the bookcase quivering

"Why must George come with you sir?" Karl said his voice shaken

"We are very much inlove and we cant stand a chance being apart! We must stay together" Dream said "oh please, there must be a way"

Karl looked more worried than ever "oh there is a way, i knew you would do this, obviously because im a 'time traveler' so i knew before you did. But this may come as a cost"

"Whats the cost?" George piped up

"Eveything you know and love in todays day and age will disappear for good, you will not any any of the modern essentials that you have today! And.... And.... And if you do go, there is a possibility that it could go terribly wrong" karl said

Dream and george looked at eachother

"What ever it takes" dream said not taking his eyes off George

"Im sorry, sir, i didnt quite catch that" karl said

"What ever it takes" dream repeated himself "what ever it takes to be with the love of my life forever"
George smiled

"Right" Karl said looking down

"I love you George"

"I... i love you too dream" george blushed

"Well if you must go back, you ought to sign this, which states that if anything goes wrong during this event, i take no charge and I mustn't get sued"

Dream and george signed it. They were ready. They were actually doing this. And they couldn't believe it

Dream and George stood there, karl getting ready

And...

———————

*around the 1970s*

Automobiles were steadily and smoothly driving past
A cool breeze flowed in the air

"We did it"

The sun shone down

"Welcome to my year, George"

Same year
