Clay is sensitive, his confidence ranging from high to low within seconds. He finds himself trapped between the walls of popularity and expectations, only to be exposed by a short British brunette who goes by the name of George.

High School AU!!
I hope you enjoy, kinda not a slow burn but you can still expect long chapters while reading!! I loved writing this and my writing does improve more towards the end, I was very sleep deprived and writing those chapters at like 5am

This is by Fernabee, I rebranded after writing the book :)

Disclaimer: I personally don't ship Dream (clay) or George together, I'm simply am a writer with nothing to write about and love this topic! If they state they are uncomfortable with these fanfics I will not hesitate to remove the story :)
-----------------------
There is references to Homophobia, underage drinking, panic attacks, anxiety attacks, and extreme bullying. Please read with caution if you are sensitive to these topics, there is TW warnings at those certain parts. <3 
-----------------------
Thank you for reading!! 123k reads is actually insane. While I'm sad that the community has fallen apart, I am so happy I was able to experience the peak. (10/12/25)

This is the cheerleader George, football player Dream au nobody asked for... Clay "Dream" Collins is your average high school football prodigy, popular and charming. Nearly everyone at school is in love with him, most of which is from his own manipulation. George is a new transfer student that became captain of the cheerleading team. He is an optimistic boy who isn't afraid to dress feminine, and while many respect him for this, many judge him. After one eventful night at a party, Dream and George end up alone in a room, with George claiming he won't ever fall for Dream. Dream makes this his goal to change the male cheerleader's mind. How hard could it be? ----- cover art is by @pencantdraw on twitter! trigger warnings include: - alcohol/drug usage - eventual smut/spice - abuse/violence/sexual assault - eating disorder/PTSD/anxiety - self harm/suicide attempt (it's not that bad, most of the angst is in the middle chapters i promise :]) That being said, I will put any trigger warnings at the start of the chapter in which they occur. George has an eating disorder in this story so I won't always put a tw for it unless I go into detail about it, keep that in mind while reading. Sometimes I also mention previous events that have happened in the story that might be triggering so if I forget to put a tw, respectfully comment and let me know :) all of the characters in this story are simply characters, and do not represent them as real people milestones (ily guys): 1k- 3/25 ✔️ 5k- 3/27 ✔️ 10k- 3/28 ✔️ 50k- 4/6 ✔️ 100k- 4/15 ✔️ 200k- 4/27 ✔️ 300k- 5/7 ✔️ 400k- 5/13 ✔️ 500k- 5/20 ✔️ 600k- 6/2 ✔️ 700k- 6/24 ✔️ 800k- 7/18 ✔️ 900k- 8/10 ✔️ 1m- 9/14 ✔️ #1 in dreamwastaken: 4/17 #1 in dreamnotfound: 4/25 #3 in dnf: 4/29 #4 in georgenotfound 5/13 #32 in gream 6/2

Not my artwork!!! (If you came from one of my other stories, please do not let this change your view of me, I am a different person than I was when I wrote this. 😔 But fr you should go read some of my other stuff, my writing is so much better now!) As of now, George and Dream have both said that books like these don't make them uncomfortable. If it makes their fans happy then they don't care. However, if they ever change their minds, I will delete this immediately. (Disclaimer!!! I will only write George x Dream I will not write about any minors under NO circumstances.) I will also be referring to Dream as Clay. Update: I have some very cringy chapters and by some I mean ALL of them so read at your own discretion.😭😭 Date Started Writing: January 15, 2021 DISCONTINUED! August 20, 2024
