George gripped his head, fluttering his eyes awake.
"Ow-" he coughed.. he felt like shit.. complete shit..

He shuffled for a few moments.. trying to get comfortable.

"You are awake!"

George opened his eyes, seeing ponk have a happy look.
"...ponk...? Where's-" he looked around before everything hit him at once.
"Dream- WHERES DREAM?! He- he was still on the ship-"

"Calm down.." Ponk perked up before frowning.
"He is in the library.. he's already been treated but was in rough shape when he got here." He whispered.
"But he's okay."

George stumbled out of the makeshift bed, flinching as he landed on his leg.
"FUCK-" he winced.. grabbing the pillar next to him.

"Careful! You got burned pretty badly on the ship.." ponk looked at all George's bandages.
"You shouldn't move so much." He mumbled.

George made his way past ponk, he had to get to dream..
"Sorry- I have to make sure dreams okay.." he mumbled.

Ponk watched as George made his way towards the stairs.
"Pfft.." he smiled.. he was glad George was worried for Dream.

George made his way onto the deck, walking towards the library.. limping ever so carefully.
"Ow-" he whispered..
"God damn my leg.."

He made his way into the library.. being mindful not to startle anyone resting.

-

George looked around before seeing Dream laying on the bed, he was covered in bandages and a sling.

His eyes widened.. feeling extreme guilt... no..

George limped his way over, seeing frost resting at dreams side.
"I'm so sorry.." he felt bad.. all this to save him..
"I didn't think you'd get this injured..."

He placed his hand on dreams chest.. softly rubbing his thumb.

"I'm sorry- this is all by fault..." George blamed himself for dreams injuries.. if he wasn't caught-

"It's not your fault." Dream hummed, fluttering an eye open.

George's face burned bright red.. moving his hand back.
"Jesus-" he jumped.. he was awake?!.

Dream let out a small chuckle.
"Sorry- I tried to help you the best I could." He stared at the bandages on George.
"I wanted to get you off the ship as fast as I could but everyone was attacking me of course."

George smiled before carefully resting next to Dream on the bed.
"Don't apologize.... You saved me- even if you burned down two ships." He rested next to dream.

Dream looked at George with a calm look.
"I know.. but- I.." his feathered ears flattened.
"I ki-"

He cut himself off again.. trying to figure out to tell George..

"It's okay." George looked at the sad look on dreams face.. softly smiling.
"He won't bother us anymore, I'm just glad you are safe..." He cupped the blondes face.

Dream stared at george with a saddened look.
"I don't deserve you." He whispered quietly.. looking at the scars on George's shoulders.
"I really don't...."

"Don't say that, I should be the one saying that too you." George shook his head as his smile grew.
"You risked your life to save me.." he couldn't believe Dream would.

"But I hurt you.." Dream whispered quietly.

"It was an accident." George rubbed dreams cheeks softly.
"It was a long time ago... it shouldn't matter anymore." He shook his head.
"I'm just happy you came back for me.."
