《DNF Parent AU》

《Phone Call》

(ITS NOT FF1970 I SWEAR-)

Prompt: George is Clare's favourite dad, and she just can't let him go just for one bit. Especially, when he has to go to work every morning.

Parent AU

No one's POV

It has practically became a habit in the house.

Dream and George both wake up from their shared bed at 8am in the morning.

Dream giving George either a hug or kiss first before walking out to go make breakfast as a stay at home dad, while George prepares his work outfit for the day, and some of his documents in his briefcase.

When George is done, he would come downstairs, with his teeth brushed already and his hair dripping wet from washing his face.

Dream would wait by the table for him so they would eat together with 3 plates set.

And then there's their 5 year old daughter, Clare, whom Dream woken up earlier for breakfast, too.

Just the sight of George made her instantly run towards him in excitement, her stuffed cat, almost similar to Patches, falling on the floor. She hugged his pant leg and asked him to be carried.

George, of course, said yes.

He carried her while walking over to the stuffed toy she dropped earlier and gave it back.

They ate breakfast, while having small chatter, with Clare sitting on George's lap; him feeding her every few minutes.

Dream did move his chair a bit closer to them, with his and George's shoulder touching.

Now here comes the difficult part.

George has already showered, dressed up, combed his hair, double checked all his stuff, took his phone off of his charger and was ready to go.

He saw Dream and approached him to say goodbye.

Although, Clare did not like what George was wearing with his briefcase in his hand.

She quickly stood up after playing with Patches on the carpet, and tugged George's blazer; she started to whine.

"Wan' dada to stayy.." she then sat on the floor, her arms around his leg.

George sighed as he signalled Dream to help him.

Dream stood up from the couch and tried to carry the small girl, away from her dad, but she just couldn't let go.

"Sweetheart, he needs to go to work." Dream tried to reason, but then she starts to cry.

God, this was gonna be tiring for both of them.

George placed his briefcase down and slowly lifted her, in which she gladly let go and was carried again on his hip.

She started sobbing on his shoulder as George shushed him.

"I'll be back for a few hours, okay?" George gently removed her hand away from her face when she harshly rubbed her eyes.

Clare sniffled as George slowly walked towards Dream and handed her to him. He still kept close though, to make it seem like George was still carrying her.

George continued to shush her, with a few teardrops left, when he looked over Dream's shoulder.

He saw Patches laying on the carpet, while cuddling Clare's stuffed cat, in which she named the cat Peaches, when George told her about the Super Mario Bros trailer he saw last time.

He got an idea.

George let out a small gasp "Look! It's Patches.." he pointed

Clare faced the other way to be met by Dream instead.
