The last year of Karl's life was pretty brutal. After a horrible accident, his grief caused his motivation to drop, and his grades went right along with it. He was close to giving up entirely when his scholarship was revoked, but he moved to Texas anyway. 

Who could've guessed that dropping out of school was the best thing to ever happen to Karl? Who would've known that one close encounter with death would lead to him meeting the best friends he'd ever had? 

While it seemed like it was the end, Karl's life was only just beginning when it fell apart.

ART DOES NOT BELONG TO ME!!!!!!!!

no major tws, it is mainly fluff with a splash of angst

Karl didn't sign up for the lifestyle he's in now. Smoking, fighting, dares. When one dare lands him back with the cops again, he's on last strike with his overbearing parents. He wants nothing more than to get out of the house away from their disappointed and abusive faces. That chance, is given to him at last. Fed up with him, his parents send him away to his aunts new private school. He's the first to ever go to said school. He's the first to stay in a room, there waiting for other kids to join. The day after he moves into the dorm a lot more kids come getting sent away from home to be banished off to the all boys school. And that's when he meets, them. They change his life forever. They help open him up after he shuts out everyone who tries talking to him. They help him see that there are some people in this cruel, mean, world that need to be given a chance. They bring him hope.

George, almost the perfect bully's punching bag, finally meets the one person who will stand up for him. His bully's best friend. Even though George's life is in /shambles/, he's trying to find some comfort in his new...erm- friend. Unfortunately, he really can't just catch a break. Between his complicated relationship with his bully's best friend and the tragedies that occur as a result. Dream meets George, and immediately understands that something must be off. He wanted to make him feel better, and as he slowly makes more and more discoveries about George and his past, the worse it seems. Dream's in way over his head, not even considering the fact that he lives alone at 17 with his little sister to take care of. Sapnap also has issues. Every dream team member is traumatized and they all get their time to shine. Karl's here too. TW: self-harm, abuse, angst, bullying (there will be more in-depth TWs at the beginning of every chapter) DISCLAIMER: characters have nothing to do with the cc's, or even *really* their dsmp characters. this is basically angst & romance just using their names, which i *pretty* normal. It's very canon divergent. I did NOT create the art for the cover, just the text!!! Yo, just btw don't re-upload this ANYWHERE unless you reach out to me and i give permission (which I probably won't) DISCLAIMER 2: this is not high quality writing, but you probably already knew that. I apologize in advance #1 dsmp #4 dnf #1 karl #1 gnf
