Dream has been a selective mute for a few years now after a certain incident. The list of people hes comfortable talking to is small, and does not include one of his best friends, George. Can George get his friend to talk, and maybe even figure out a way to help? How will their relationship evolve as George breaks down Dreams walls. ~ Cover art is done my me! I dont have a tiktok (only a twitter) associated with this wattpad account or this fanfiction! If anyone is claiming to be me, its not! if I ever create any other accounts for this story I would let you all know!! ~ With the rising popularity of this book, I want say that within writing this I am not trying to invalidate others experiences as a selective mute. Ive done as much research on it as I could, and I tied my own experiences with Anxiety and RSD into it. If there is anything remotely incorrect or rude in the way it is represented or interacted with inside this book please inform me and Ill make an effort to correct it! Thank you! ~ For reference, any dialogue quoted through * * is sign language, which isn't used too heavily in this story but there will be references to it. Just for a sake of simplicity so I don't have to describe the motions every time. Additionally, if any quotes are italicized, that means they are through text or writing. (unless during a dream, where all text is italicized to signify that its from the past and or in the head) ~ TW list - Mention of minimal injury - Mention of major injury - Mentions of physical abuse - Mentions of fire - Mentions of PTSD - Graphic depictions of violence (Trigger warnings will not be stated at the beginning of every chapter like most writers do unless they are extremely triggering, which those will not be mentioned in this story anyways)

Dream is a selective mute. His mother desperately wants him to speak, so she hires someone to become his friend and gain his trust. Although he still remains silent, a deeper bond is formed between the two of them, one without the need of words. George catches himself falling in love and when those feelings are returned, he can't help but feel terribly guilty for the decision he made earlier. If Dream finds out George is getting payed to be his friend, that bond might be broken forever, he might be broken forever. Would you forgive your -supposed to be- best friend after finding out? ✧･ﾟ: *✧･ﾟ:*✧･ﾟ: *✧･ﾟ:*✧･ﾟ: *✧･ﾟ:* Cover art is not mine. If you know who it's from, let me know! I'd love to give the artist credit. Completed in 2022.
