Chapter 2 (Dream) ✔︎

the morning sun shines through my curtains and onto my eyes— as my half asleep body adjusted to a sitting position
listening to the cities sounds and the morning animals sing
my hands rubbed my still tired eyes, while one last good morning yawn escapes me

as i look around and begin to wake up— i began to remember everything that had happened the day before—

" i'm sorry for walking in all of a sudden george, i didn't mean for this to happen but can we start over?— be friends? "

" whatever, i'm not your friend.. nor do i want to be, so just forget about it"

" tch.. that was a dick move " i mumbled to myself as i groan and swing my legs off the bed
a sudden dizziness came over me as i reached for the doorknob
" i guess the fever still isn't gone"
i grab a cooling gel pad and place it onto my forehead and head out of my bedroom door

the kitchen and living room was empty but my suitcases and school bag was still in the same place i had left it—
i walked over to georges room and saw that the door was slightly cracked open
the sounds of light snoring was heard and it was completely dark in his room, i gently closed it and sighed to myself
" i feel bad that we got off on the wrong foot.. he genuinely seems nice.. ish"
i thought to myself— and that's when a light bulb sparked above my head
" Breakfast!— That's it! I'll make him breakfast! "

—

the aroma of freshly made bacon and egg filled our small dorm kitchen and living room
i smiled to myself— proud of the yummy breakfast i had created for not only myself, but for george too
" this will sure put him in a good mood! "
the door to his room creaks open, i quickly dust off my clothes and lay the plates onto the island counter

a groggy and still half asleep brunet walked out of the room— shirtless and black joggers that covered his lower half
damn..
i swallowed the lump in my throat and cleared it as he looks up at me— noticing the food and drinks i had laid out
" Morning George! " i say with a smile

he doesn't say anything— he just looked at me, almost like he was studying me?
" what's that? " he says with curiosity as he slowly walks over to the counter
" Bacon, Eggs, Toasted bread and some orange juice" i respond

his arm grabs a hold of the chair next to him and scoots it over— sitting on it and making himself comfortable
" what's the catch? " he responds
a confused expression was clear enough shown on my face—
" um, what catch? this is just me being nice "
he studies me again and proceeds to grab a fork— picking at his food before eating it

i sit on the opposite side of the counter and began to eat my food as well
the silence was deafening.. he hadn't said a word to me— and i hadn't said a word towards him
"say something" i remember telling myself as i ate the remainder of what was left on my plate
" look george, we got off on the wrong foot and i want to start over— if we're gonna live together than i want it to be in a positive environment "

he still looked down at his plate— completely ignoring what i had just said
" george? "
finally i got something out of him.. but it wasn't what i expected
" look "dream" if you want an apology for kissing you yesterday then fine, i'm sorry for kissing you okay? i thought you were sapnap— "

" but— george i don't care about that, whatever you do with him is your business, i just want us to get along and be friendly "
