DNF - Unintentional Hide and Seek

Inspired by a tik tok made by @_.hyuun._
Basic origin/context
George is the son of a powerful and wealthy duke that was targeted constantly for their wealth. When George was young and naive, he'd play with a commoner boy in the commoner's village named Clay who always wore a smiley face mask. But when George and Clay are teenagers, George's family is attacked by thieves during a frantic time involving the royal family. George's parents become worried for their heir's safety and decided to send him away to his father's territory to oversee and run the place while also keeping him away from the dangers of the capital. Clay and George never see each other again, until George is 18 and debuts into high society as the duke's heir. Clay desperate to see George again, does everything within his power to obtain a noble title. He becomes a mysterious marquis named Dream who suddenly appeared, he decides to throw a party before many young heirs made their debut's and invites every noble in the capitol; hoping George's family attends.
