7 - George's perspective

(George's POV)

I lay on my bed, trying to fall asleep. I don't know why it's so hard to sleep when I need it.

When I eventually start to drift off to sleep, I hear the Discord ringtone I always hear when I'm about to stream.

I groan out of annoyance and sit up. I look at my computer, and Dream's calling from the Dream Team group chat.

What does that yellow belly face want?

I stretch before getting up and sitting in my chair. Me and Sapnap seemed to have joined the call about the same time, him just arriving a little bit earlier than me.

"George, Sapnap. I have something to ask y'all." I hear Dream say.

What could be so important that he wanted to ask us on call instead of on text?

I stand my elbow on my desk and put my hand to my head, holding it as a rest my eyes. Dream and Sapnap were bickering because Sapnap was eating some Mc'Donalds, and Dream interrupted him.

I waited patiently for them to stop, and after a bit, they stopped, and Dream started talking to the both of us again.

"So, what if... y'all came over to my house to visit?" I hear Dream ask. I stared at the screen wide-eyed.

We've never really thought about going to one of each other's houses before. I was really shocked, and I didn't really hear what the rest of Dream said, and what Sapnap has said as well.

"What about you, George?" I hear Dream ask. I really didn't know if I wanted to go or not, 'cause I'd have to leave my home country to visit him; I'd have to go across the ocean sky wise, and I don't think I was ready for that just yet.

"I'll have to think about it. You know, since I live across the ocean from you." I state. I feel bad for not giving an actual answer, but I really didn't know if I could go.

"That's okay, George. Once you've made up your mind, let me know." Dream responded. I'm glad Dream was understanding. But I couldn't help but still feel guilt.

"Okay." I say tiredly. We all said our goodbyes until we hung up. I sighed in relief as I get to go back to sleeping.

But then my brain starts eating me up. I can't go to Dream's house; I could simply not live.

If I go to Dream's place, he would constantly tease me, I just know it! On call, it's alright, because it's just verbal teasing.

But if me and him meet up irl, who knows how Dream would tease me physically. I would just stop living if he physically teased me, whether it be holding my hands, or kissing me on the cheek, or something.

I just don't know what to do. Part of me does not want to go at all, but the other part of me really wants to go and see my friends, the only friends that I really spoke to.

Maybe if I go, I could prevent some of the tricks Dream pulls. If Dream makes me feel uncomfortable, I can just simply say 'stop.'

And if there's a guest room or a couch I could use, I can just sleep there.

It seems like I've got it all figured out, maybe. That doesn't mean I have really decided yet, though.
