Cold

chapter nine

What did Sapnap know? How did he know?

Dream was starving, he hadn't eaten anything. "Sapnap, do you want to go get food or something?"

"I'm not very hungry..." Sapnap said. "You can go out if you want."

Dream really didn't feel like it. "I'll just go to bed... night Sapnap."

"Night Dream."

When Dream got into his room his phone was ringing. It was George.

"Hello?" Dream said.

"Hey Dream, can we talk?" George asked through the phone.

Dream laid down on the bed. "Yeah, what's up?"

"It's about what you said earlier... when we were on the phone." George explained. "I-I want to try something..."

Dream closed his eyes.

George took a deep breath, he felt very nervous. "Dream, you need to be kissed until you cant breath, until you can't walk."

Dream gasped. "Wh-what, George, you can't do that to me!"

"Do what?" George asked. "Say it... so I know it's true."

"Y-you can't make me feel like that." Dream said.

"Like what? Did I, did I, did I turn you on Dream?" George asked.

Dream was breathing heavily. "George-"

George smiled, Dream could tell even through the phone. "Get me back, I know you want to."

He did, he wanted to so badly.

"George, this isn't a joke." Dream said.

George laughed "You think I'm joking? Come on Dream, say it."

Dream was shaking. "You need to be touched in a way you forget your name."

Suddenly George was quiet. "I-I wasn't expecting that."

Dream smiled. "Did it work?"

Dream took the silence as a yes. "Your lips sound lonely, let me introduce them to mine."

Through the phone Dream could hear George gasp. Was it true? Did George really have feelings for Dream?

"Dream, describe your dream to me." George whispered.

"We kissed, you made me stop breathing."

Just take your breath away...

" It was like everything that worried me was gone."

Move to a place so far away...

"We were in the dark, and at the time I didn't know it was you." Dream sighed. "Each dream changed a little bit each time, slowly getting more intimate."

Put my finger on your tongue...

"Did you like it?" George asked so quietly Dream could barely hear him.

So let me hold...

Dream took a deep breath. "I did, yeah."

They sat in silence for a moment.

"Dream?" George asked.

Dream closed his eyes again. "Yes George?"

"What made you realize it was me?" George asked.

Dream did see this coming. "Well, you, you said 'I love you'"

George took a deep breath. "So, what if- if I" There was a long pause. "I love you Dream."

Even though this surprised Dream, he said "I love you too".

George sighed. "I wish I could be there with you, in Florida."

"George- I'm not in Florida. I'm at Sapnap's." Dream confessed.

"Wha-what?" George seemed confused.

"I needed to get away from my house, the heat, the rain." Dream explained. "I couldn't be alone anymore, I was going crazy with these dreams." Dream chuckled. "Poor Sapnap, apparently I talk in my sleep."

"I wonder what you said?" George said.

"I have a general idea..." Dream replied.

George understood. "Oh." then he breathed in deeply. "Dream?"

"Yes George?"

"I've been having dreams about you too."
