She was seeing him for the first time and was still a virgin to be carrying his child. What was supposed to be a happy event turned out to be her worse nightmare. All it took was one lie for her family to toss her out of their lives and her boyfriend to break her heart and dump her.

An introverted mage. An isolated warrior. Their adventures are epic. Their friendship is legendary.

Years of pretending to be someone else has blurred the lines at this point. So when a party goes awry, George finds himself laying in the middle of the road, wanting nothing more than to no longer exist. It almost happens. 8 inches separating him from death. Dumb decisions lead to dumb actions that lead to irreparable damage. And George really screwed himself over with one really bad, untimely decision. Dream seems to be the only one to have any idea of how George is feeling. and he seems to be the only one noticing how he's breaking apart. It takes one tourtured soul to recognize another, after all. ~ "Didn't your mom tell you not to take candy from strangers?" "Of course she did, but I would have to care to actually listen."

I appreciated the fact that you not only focused on what it is like to have a mental illness, but also how mental illness can have a ripple effect on friends and family; and how the journey isn't always one of smooth sailing." - @CreativeBibliophile "Wow, this was written so exceptionally well.

[dreamwastaken x georgenotfound, road trip au, high school au, completed] Dream is running from his problems. You would be too if you were in his situation. Unfortunately, the only person available to help give him a ride is a childhood friend he hasn't spoken to since middle school. George is running from his memories. And his problems.
