it had been a few days since I planned to meet up with the band, I was currently walking around clothing stores with my friend alex. I wanted to seem cool to the band, I had to buy new clothes and change up my style.

"how about this?" I asked my friend while holding up a light blue t-shirt. all I got was a head shake from my friend, gluing his eyes to his phone.

"you need something brown maybe? like a knitted sweater!" I now realize my friend had actually searched up the band to match their aesthetic a bit. I followed him to the section we needed. I found a nice light brown sweater that had some cool stitching design.

"okay I'm getting this! it can go with my blue jeans I have at home with my converse right?" to my surprise Alex actually agreed making us able to finally go home. my feet were hurting me so much I just wanted to crawl back into my bed and hibernate from everyone.

once I paid and walked out I looked over at Alex who had a mysterious look on his face.
"can I stay at yours? a sleepover like old times! you can tell me about your new gay crushes or whatever you want"
I just snickered but nodded my head "okay let's go but be quick I don't want to miss my last bus come on" he then followed behind me.

we did actually have to run for the bus as we nearly missed it, we laughed as we walked to our seats, letting out sighs as we sat down.
"it's your fault you wanted to stop at Starbucks!" I said while panting, my cheeks slightly pink.

"hey! coffee is important if I'm staying at yours" I only nodded and leaned back looking at my messages with dream.

dream
see you then Georgie :)

dream
SHIT AUTO CORRECT!

I couldn't help but smile at it, I normally didn't like nicknames I just like it plain and simple, but it was cute especially for the mysterious guy dream presented as.

"oh? who's dream?" I heard Alex say over my shoulder, making me turn off my phone quickly.

"uh just a member from the band! he's been talking to me and helping me with my nerves" I turned to him, my cheeks still pink, I don't know if it's from being out of breath anymore.

"hm sure whatever you say... Georgie" he said winking. I only rolled my eyes, standing to get off while bus as it was our stop now. I already knew this sleepover will be just me being embarrassed the whole time now that Alex knew about dream. I knew the teasing would be endless.

----

it had been a couple of hours now, we were both just watching my TV as it played some random movie we found on Netflix, it was pretty trash but trashy movies are the best.
I saw Alex lean over and pick up my notebook I had for lyrics, I never really let people go near it as it was something I was careful about, you never know who could steal your work. I didn't mind Alex going through it though, he's been my best friend for years, he's actually the reason I started to show it to people; he was my biggest fan.

"oh I like this one! uh 'the fall' it's really good!" Alex said with quite the enthusiasm.

"I must admit I'm excited to see what they will do with that one, I've had that in there for about a year now, I've never felt confident enough to give it to someone" I leaned back on my sofa, getting comfortable with my legs up to my chest.

"this is the one you need to bring with you tomorrow! it's perfect dude! I can't wait to see you at the grammys! song of the year!" I laughed at Alex's antics but I rolled my eyes.

"and I'll thank you! my biggest fan!" I stretched my body and looked over at him "hey I might head off to bed I have to up early tomorrow to get the train! my sister let me take the day off which is sweet"
I stood up, walking to the wardrobe, grabbing him some blankets and pillows. "you have a key for tomorrow right? I don't mind you being here while I'm gone"
he just nodded and curled into his blanket, on the sofa, could tell he was tired so I just turned off the lights and walked upstairs to my room. I laid there looking at the messages I shared with dream again.

george
hey :]

dream
woah! finally decided to message me back huh?

george
yeah I'm sorry I was busy and overworked! no hard feelings though! I'm excited for tomorrow but nervous I feel like imma vomit.

dream
yeah me too, I think Wilbur said he will pick you up from the train station and take you to the place we are planning to film.

I started at the message, Wilbur as in that attractive man? oh my god now I have to dress right, I mean obviously there's no chance but a boy can dream?

dream
George? is that okay? I can always come with him.

George
that's fine! see you tomorrow dreamie ;)

dream
goodnight Georgie (not a typo)

dream
:)

i put my phone down and soon fell asleep, a soft smile plastered on my face.

I'm glad George messaged me back, it felt weird to not message him even though I've know him for a few days? it's weird for me to think that right? he's just our new lyricist. it's like a new addition to the band, it's like when the others joined!
but why does it feel different? for god sake I haven't even seen the boy! but I can imagine what he's like.

I just stare at the messages going through our little conversations we had, then it hit me 'shit it's 2am I should sleep'
I thought to myself, putting my phone on charge by my bed, closing my eyes while falling asleep. my heart pounding from the nerves of making a music video and to meet this mysterious George.

god I hope we get along.
