McGee: Drawn to Life - Dream a Little Dream

Chapter One

Disclaimer: McGee: Drawn to Life is a fan series (fan-fiction) inspired by the original 1989 Children's Christian series, McGee and Me. While all respectful attempts have been made to keep Drawn to Life in tune with its source material and core Christian values, we have brought the world of McGee into the 21st Century. This means the series does contain progressive topics such as (Including but not limited to): LGBTQIA+ inclusion, mental health, and other religions mentioned/practiced, and contains magical lore all WITHOUT ignoring Nicholas and McGee's positive relationship with Christianity.

As a reminder, this is a work of fanfiction. The series is not to be taken seriously, is not canon to or endorsed by the source material, and otherwise takes place in an 'alternative universe' from the original series. Some canon has been altered for the sake of creative liberty.

Some episodes contain sensitive material/subject matter and proper warnings will be placed at the beginning of said episodes. This series is recommended for ages 12+. The episode titled: Ellie's Big Secret will have a mature label on it in accordance with Wattpad's terms of service as it contains the topic of su*cide and self h*rm. You will need to ask your parents/guardians permission to access this episode via their own monitored devices.

Episode Two: 
Dream a Little Dream!

*The silence was soothing. The sound of a stream bubbling nearby alongside a few stray bird calls and crickets chirping was all that could be heard. A gentle breeze softly caressed loose strands of their hair as they lay in the tall wildflowers, the grass tickling their cheeks but not disturbing them from their afternoon tranquility. Everything was quiet, safe, good...

The blond teen breathed in deeply, feeling his chest rise and then gently fall, a mop of feminine red hair laying atop it as it descended. He opened his eyes softly, glancing down at the girl on his torso before letting his hand softly pet her locks. A content hum left her, and the blond felt his heart flutter and himself swoon. This was all perfect... this was their own personal little oasis...

Just as he was about to drift off again, he felt the girl in his arms shift. He smiled, turning his head back down to face her as she rested against his navy smock, her own white and green dress draping comfortably over her ankles as an afternoon blanket. He saw two bright emerald eyes looking up at him, her freckled cheeks happily pressed into her sleepy eyes. His heart pattered quickly again as he inhaled, the cool air filling his lungs and expanding his rib cage before it settled again. He felt such peace and happiness with her looking at him in their safe haven.*

ELLIE:
*She giggled and nuzzled against his forehead, her warmth a cool contrast to the cool metal of the tiara crown he continuously wore.*

Marca~

*She hummed the name happily before nuzzling him once more.*
