Author's note:
Hi everyone! Here it is, the epilogue and last update of Feeling For You. Make sure to follow to be notified when I post a new story!
Thank you so much to everyone who had commented, voted, or even just read FFY. It means to much to me!
This story has been in the works since September of 2022- back before George had his VISA. A lot of the events are cannon compliant, and it was really fun to write this close to real time. I'm gonna miss writing this... but that's okay, because I have a new DNF one shot collection in the works, as well as a planned DNF Star Wars au! The one shots will probably start releasing first.
More about the one shot book: Each one will be about 10k words, or as long as three chapters of Feeling For You. I will be taking requests, aside from the two pre-planned chapter I have right now! The first one shot will be an angsty (happy ending though!) fic where DNF has an argument. The second will be pirate Dream and prince George!
Chapter word count: 3,247
Total word count: 128,700
For the epilogue, I recommend listening to Faith by George Michael and/or Paradise by George Ezra.
My best friends are stupidly in love.
I've known them for years, so it's not that big of a surprise. Ever since I met Dream (back when I was thirteen), I've seen how he interacts with George- and it's never been the same as with anyone else. George has always been the one to get Dream's 'Patches voice', as well as simp treatment. Even when Dream was just a kid, he'd been obsessed with George.
Growing up with two idiots like them as my best friends was certainly interesting- there were times when I was undoubtedly a third wheel, but our friendship is worth it. I love Dream, despite his tendency to leave me on read or eat all of the frozen mango I bought to make smoothies (instead of just buying his own, or eating non frozen mango like a normal person). And though George can annoy me more than anyone else, he's closer than a brother to me.
Even when the two of them were young, thing were different between them. I could tell, even if I wasn't as tuned in to it as a kid. And as we all grew older, the difference only became more clear. All three of us grew closer, but where I saw the others as brothers, they loved each other in a much different way.
There have been times that being the third member of the Dream Team isn't easy. Waiting for George's VISA was crushing. Visiting George when he was alone in London was one of the best trips I've taken, but having to leave him again was painful. Dealing with Dream's empathy hasn't always been the easiest, either- especially not when it lead to me constantly repressing my feelings, not visiting my family or Karl often, and one near death scenario that I would very much like to forget about.
But all of the bad is nothing when compared to the good about my brothers. Dream is selfless, creative, and supportive. He didn't hesitate to welcome me home when I decided to move in spontaneously after just one day of debating, just like how he didn't hesitate to bring me with him when his channel started to blow up. George is funny, and much kinder than he lets on. His subtle gestures of affection are heartwarming, even if they're something as simple as him bringing me a new bottle of water when I haven't been drinking enough or giving me one of his trinkets.
And of course, the fact that they're both obsessed with each other is a good thing- or at least, it's a good thing, as long as they aren't making out near me.
I'm more than happy that they shorted their shit out and started dating- hell knows it took them long enough. Seven years is a long time for anyone to stay friends, especially when they met each other as teenagers and maintained their connection without ever having met in person. The fact that George agreed to move without having seen Dream's face is still insane to me- the man was whipped, even then.
