I'm A Loser

Like Dreamers Do

"George..." Liz muttered seeing his wrists.

"Lizzy...I-I couldn't help myself." George said.

Lizzy didn't know what to say; she just stared at George's arms. Not only did George cut them, he cut words into them.

"I MISS LIZZY" was on one arm.

"I NEED LIZZY" was on the other arm.

And it didn't stop there. On his left bicep it read, "I LOVE LIZZY"

George watched nervously at Lizzy's expressionless face.

"Liz?" George asked.

Liz just stared at George. She didn't know what to say. Whether to be upset with George that he cut or to take pity on him since he wrote about Lizzy.

"Liz... I'm so sorry. I..." George tried to explain.

Before he could finish, Liz embraced George. George was so taken back that he didn't react for a few seconds. When he realized what was going on. He hugged Lizzy back. George missed that feeling. He missed Liz's warmth and the feelings of happiness and hope that she carried with her.

"I missed you, Liz."

"I know you did." Liz replied.

They didn't let go of each other and just hugged each other for what they though felt like eternity.

"I hope I can be like this forever." George said as he continued to hold Lizzy in his grasp.

"Like what?" Liz asked.

"I hope I can stay in your arms forever. I don't want to let go. I don't want to go back to reality." George said into Liz's ear.

"Then let's stay in this dream forever." Liz replied.

George pulled back from Liz a little bit and kissed Liz. Liz put her arms around his neck and George put her hands on her waist.

The two finished kissing and they laid on the bed, holding hands. The couple stared at the blank ceiling.

"Best. Dream. Ever." George said.

Liz giggled. "Let's never wake up and just do what dreamers do."

George flipped over on the bed and gave Liz a kiss on the forehead. Liz nuzzled her head into George's chest.

"Love you, Georgie."

"Love you too, Lizzy."

The two continued dreaming. Together.
