Dream's POV
George's birthday is a week away and I need to get him a gift. I'd ask him what he wants, but from the years of long distance, I know how awkward he feels when someone tries to give him a gift. He's Turing twenty seven, I can't just not get him anything. As the years go on, birthdays become less enjoyable and more dreadful. The thought of getting older, being closer to death, is frightening but the future can also be extraordinary, falling in love, weddings, having kids, and getting to see the people you love find happiness.
I look around, looking for anything that reminds me of George. He recently broke his MacBook so I bought him a new one as well as a few minion shirts that I think he'd like. When he was in London, he refused the idea of me sending him things but now that we live together, I can spoil him. On my way home, I pick up the kitten.
Last week, George and I were looking at getting a friend for patches and he thought this one looked the cutest but we didn't get her. I went back and bought her, I want George to love a cat as much as I love patches and it's only fitting that our cats are best friends just like us.
In preparation for George's birthday stream, I set up the lighting, help Hannah decorate the kitchen and my mum bakes him a cake (she knows that any cake that we make is going to taste horrible.) and then we're ready to start the stream. Being on stream since face revealing makes my skin crawl with enerves, I thought I'd be use to it by now but I just can't turn my brain off.
After the stream I pull George aside,
"I got you some presents" I smile warmly.
"You didn't have to-"
"I wanted too, I'm really glad that your in the US with Nick and I. We love you."
George isn't good at verbalising his affection, so I don't get upset when he replies with something sarcastic.
"Cool- I like living with you." His checks grow pink, he's nervous now.
"Follow me and I'll give you, your presents."
I lead him up the stairs and into my room."Thank you."
"Your welcome, I love you George. Your my best friend and I appreciate you sticking with me all these years."
We've argued a few times in the last seven years and I can admit that most of the time, it's my fault. I'm great full that George looks past that and still welcomes me with the kindness on his heart.It's a surprise when George places his hands on my cheeks, without a sign of mockery. It's even more of a surprise when he leans in and places his lips on mine. It's a surprise but it feels so natural, like we've kissed a million times before this.
I've loved George all my life, when I walk into a room, he's the first person I look for. I'm so glad that George can look past my (few) flaws and decide I'm worthy of loving with his whole heart. I love him so much that sometimes I think my heart is going to explode.
