Dream POV

I watched George unpacking some food. He was so extremely beautiful in this moonlight. He knew I sometimes went outside to see the stars when I couldn't sleep. He put on some music and I heard one of my favourite songs playing.

There goes my heart beating
'Cause you are the reason
I'm losing my sleep
Please come back now

I indeed felt my heart beating. Very fast. I liked George so much.

And there goes my mind racing
And you are the reason
That I'm still breathing
I'm hopeless now

I looked at him. He was the reason of my mind racing.

I'd climb every mountain
And swim every ocean
Just to be with you
And fix what I've broken

'I need to fix what I've broken, Dream.'

Oh 'cause I need you to see
That you are the reason

'Dream, you are the reason I'm still here.'

We both laid down, watching the stars, enjoying the song and each other's company.

Suddenly another song started playing.

Look at the stars, look how they shine for you.
And everything you do
Yeah, they were all yellow
I came along, I wrote a song for you
And all the things you do

I lifted myself up a little and scooted closer to George. I rested on my elbows and watched George in the corner of my eye. He had his eyes closed.

Your skin
Oh yeah, your skin and bones
Turn into something beautiful
You know
You know I love you so
You know I love you so

I couldn't help myself anymore. I rolled to my side and softly touched Georges cheek. He opened his eyes and I shortly pressed my lips on his. Just a second, but enough to make my stomach explode with butterflies and enough to make me shiver. His soft lips on mine, they tasted even better than I expected them to. He looked at me a little confused, but smiled. I was blushing like crazy, but because it was dark outside, he probably couldn't see.

'Did you like it?' I whispered, not breaking the tension between us.

He nodded heavily.

'I like you, George.'

This time it was him to lift himself up and he started kissing me this time. The kiss was longer and way better than the first. Our lips seemed to move in sync, as if they were made for each other. It was far from perfect, but enough for us both to enjoy. He crawled up a little, without breaking the kiss. He sat on his knees and I sat up. I wrapped my arms around his shoulders and he wrapped them around my waist. We kissed for a while, but both of us were still a little sad when we broke apart to catch some air.

'I like you too, Dream,' George whispered in his sweet voice.

I melted because of his touch. His hands around my waist, softly rubbing my back. I stroke his neck and planted a soft kiss on his cheek.

'That's why I didn't tell you I'm gay. Because I'm gay for you and I realised I'm gay because of my crush on you.'

'I never suspected to be gay myself, but I felt so weird around you and it all made sense when you kissed me.'

'I think I like you for so long, but I just didn't get what I was feeling.'

'Same.'

'George, will you be-.'

'So boys.'

I startled and looked up.

George POV

My mouth fell open. How did HE get here.

'Dad, I can explain. I eh-.'

'There is nothing to explain, you faggots. I saw you kiss each other.'

'Eh- it was just to practise.'

'Practise?'

'Yeah, he likes a girl and he wants to make a move.'

'Oh and he decides to practise with a gay guy?'

'Well, I hadn't told him that yet.'

'Are you gay?' I acted with him.

Dream acted ashamed. 'Yeah, I wanted to help you and not make you uncomfortable.'

'Eww.'

'George, if you really hate gays and if you're really not a faggot. Prove it.'

'How?'

'Beat him up.'

'What?'

Dream nodded softly. 'Hit me,' he lip-synced.

I froze. I couldn't and I shook my head. 'Fine, here you have the truth. I'm gay and I choose myself to kiss him.'

I saw Dream texting now I distracted my dad. He was probably texting Sapnap.

'You have two options,' Dream said. 'You either don't touch him with a finger and just beat me up with the chance of the police taking you to prison. Or you walk away and let us have our time together.'

'You mean: let us make out, be disgusting and a shame for the whole world?'

'Yeah, sure. Isn't beating your own son and threatening to kill him a sin too?'

Before I knew Dream got hit. He didn't seem to care. 'Beat me then. Do it, go to the police station. Go to jail. George, RUN.'

I didn't want to leave Dream alone, but I decided to listen. I started running towards home and I ran into Sapnap.

'Are you okay?' he yelled.

'No, have you called the police?'

'I did.'

'Dream is getting beaten up. We have to help him.'

We started running to there and Dream laid on the floor. Sapnap wasn't scared at all. He ran towards my father and kicked him at a certain place. He fell on the ground and I ran towards Dream.

'Are you okay?' I whispered.

He grabbed my hand. 'I am. I probably can't have kids anymore, but I'm gay anyways.'
