Chapter 24 - Window bed

Recap of the last chapter:

"Hm... fine... yours..." I yawned, falling asleep hearing one faint little "I love you" before falling asleep. 

George's POV:

I woke up in a cold sweat, thinking about the nightmare I just had. I looked at Dream and saw that he was still sleeping peacefully. I smiled and kissed his cheek. I checked the time. 5:20 A.M. It's so early. I got out of bed and brushed my teeth and washed my face. I went outside and looked over at Dream. I kissed his cheek and went to his window bed.

I sat down on it and hummed a tune my mother used to hum to me when I was a child. I thought about the nightmare I had a while ago...

"Mom where are you?" I asked, I was in a very dark room.

"George... p-please run..." I heard someone call out to me. I looked over to my side and saw... Clay? What was he doing here?

"D-dream?..." I called out to him, he was in a very terrible state. So terrible that I gasped when I looked at him. He was cover in bruises. He had a deep cut on his stomach, making him bleed. He was crying but it was red, I'm guessing it was mixed with his blood.

"D-Dream! W-what happened to you?!-" I cut myself off when I heard 2 other people call out to me. I looked to where the voices were and I saw my mother and my father...

They were bleeding everywhere. They have cuts on their arms, stomach, and their legs.

"G-George... run... p-please..." my mother said in a very raspy voice.

"R-run away with C-Clay..." my father said, his eyes almost closing.

"I-if the both you ever get married, y-you have my b-blessings..." my father said, my mother, nodding in response.

"N-no please..." I cried.

Someone came downstairs and remove the chains from my arms and my neck. He did the same for Clay.

"Leave." He said sternly.

"I-I can't leave my parents here!" I yelled at him. He slapped me.

"Leave!" He yelled.

"Honey... please leave... Leave with Clay..." my mother said.

"It's not a question honey, leave." My father demanded.

I nodded my head and carried Clay, bringing him out of here. I cried when I saw Clay in bright light. He had cuts everywhere. His neck, arms, face, legs, and stomach. He had a black eye and his nose and lip were bleeding.

I ran outside of this... thing? And went straight to the hospital. The nurses carried him over to a hospital bed and one of them told me to stay.

I nodded my head and sat down, waiting for them to call me.

After a few hours, a doctor came to me looking upset.

"H-how is he?" I asked him in a rush.

He shook his head.

"He didn't make it, he lost too much blood. We did everything we could... I'm sorry..." he said.

I was shocked, why? Why would he leave me?

"NO CLAY!" I yelled, going down on my knees as everyone stared at me worriedly. The doctor seemed to be more upset judging by my reaction... I lost Clay... The love of my life... I failed to protect him...

I cried, thinking about the nightmare I just had. I looked over at Clay sleeping. I couldn't lose him. I can't. I put my hands in my hair and pulled.

"I can't lose you, Dream..." I mumbled.

Dream's POV:

I wanted to hug George, but when I did I felt nothing. I opened my eyes and looked around. I saw George on the window bed, with his hands in his hair. I could hear him sob softly. Looking at him makes me wanna tear up. I stood up and went over to him. He was a bit shocked but when he saw it was me... he jumped into my arms and cried.

"Shh... it's okay George... I'm here..." I reassured him. I kissed his head. He sobbed into my chest and I just played with his hair. Seeing him in this state just breaks my heart. He let go of me and we looked at each other. I leaned in to kiss him but he put his hand in front of my face. I looked at him confused.

"Morning breath..." he mumbled but loud enough for me to hear. I chuckled and went into the bathroom. I brushed my teeth thinking about why George was crying. I was done brushing my teeth and I went back to George. He was still crying, his knees on his chest. I went up to him and hugged him.

"D-dream... please..." He sobbed

"Please what George?" I asked in a caring tone.

"Please... s-stay with me... d-don't leave me..." he cried

"What makes you say I will?" I asked him.

"My n-nightmare..." He cried, this time turning towards me, burying his face in my chest. 

"Can you tell me?" I asked him

"N-no... n-not now please..." he cried into my chest, making my shirt wet. I didn't though

"Ok just tell me when you're ready ok?" I said, reassuring him. 

"I-I love you, Dream..." He mumbled into my chest.

"I love you too, George..." I kissed his head. 

I carried him bridal style and brought him to the bed. I laid him down and went beside him. He cuddled closer to my chest and I wrapped my arms around him, wanting him to feel safe. I kissed his head and he wrapped his arms around me too, cuddling closer to my chest. (is this fluff? Idk-)

"Go to sleep George... we still have time..." I whispered into his ear. He nodded his head. After a few minutes, I heard light snoring coming from him, meaning that he was finally asleep. The sun started to rise and it got brighter. I left the bed and close the curtains so it wouldn't be too bright that it could wake George up. 

"Mm... Dream... come here..." he groaned as he turned to face me. I smiled and went back to the bed. He immediately clung to me like a koala. I smiled and kissed his head. 

"I'm here George... no need to be scared ok..." I reassured him.

He nodded his head and went back to sleep.
