"Hey Dr. Major!" George waved down the senior doctor as he walked down the hall. Major stopped in his tracks and looked at his intern with a soft smile spread across his lips. 

"Yes George? How can i help you?" Major asked and closed the distance between them. He was busying looking over some paperwork on a clipboard he had in hand.

"I was wondering..." George fiddled his fingers as he spoke. "If i could have Halloween off... and the day after that as well?" He held his breath, waiting for rejection. 

Major froze in the middle of turning the page. He slowly lifted his gaze to match George's and he rose an eyebrow in question. "You have worked here for nearly a year George, you have never once asked for a day off." Major sunk into his heels and grinned. "What's the special occasion?"

"Oh!" George swallowed his anxiety. "It's the rematch game... between the Creepers and Rangers." He looked down at his feet and thought. 

"Is it now? I thought that 'wasn't your scene.'?" Major chuckled. He tried to make his voice sound accusingly but both knew that Major was teasing. 

"It's not... but... i uhm... i got... asked out to go there..." Warmth hugged his cheeks as he spoke about his 'date' with Dream. 

"I see now. You are going on a date." Major said. 

"I-it's not a date! He never said it was so... its not... we are just hanging out."

"It's a he, is it?" The smile on Dr. Major's face only grew. "Does this 'he' happen to be a bl-"

"Blonde football star who broke his foot, yes, why does everyone know?" George sound, he sounded absolutely exasperated. Major laughed. 

"You were writing his name on the edge of your medical reports George." 

"Shit-"

"Hey, you are still at work." Major chuckled. "Speaking of which, your shift is almost over, no?"

"Oh you are right! It's Liz's birthday and i have to get ready before she gets home. I'll see you tomorrow Doc!" George offered a slight wave of his hand and rushed down the hospital corridor. 

When George was changed out of his hospital scrubs and walking down to his car, he pulled at his phone and messaged his sister. He told her that he was going to work tad and to have someone give her a ride home from theatre. This was of course a lie but George needed some time to get some last minute things. 

He drove in rather silence, he really wasn't one to listen to music, as he made his way to a local craft supply store. It was about five in the evening, the brighter hues of day had melted away into cold streaks of grey as rain threatened to spill from the heavens. When George pulled into a parking a lot and got out of his car, it had started to sprinkle.

He rushed inside to escape the downpour which immediately picked up as soon as he stepped foot into the store. George knew exactly where to go, he had been eyeing a certain art kit for a few weeks. He picked it up and started to make his way down to check out when he heard a familiar voice. 

"Goerg!" Called out a voice. George cringed at this botched attempt to say his name, but he turned around and came face to face with Sapnap of all people. George couldn't help but notice his outfit. Sapnap was dressed like an eboy but he did it gracefully. He had a black and white stripped long sleeve underneath some black band shirt. He was holding some Halloween décor and the likes. 

"Hi Sapnap." George greeted. Ever since Dream was admitted to the hospital, George had become rather decent friends with some of the football players, Sapnap being among the,.
