Clingy

Long distance relationships are possibly the worst thing Dream had the displeasure of experiencing. They never lasted, maybe going for a few months before he was hit with ’there’s just too much distance, I’m sorry, I can’t do this’ or told that he was too clingy for someone hundreds of miles away. They’re stupid, even after the multiple ones he had, and yet here he is, in one with someone who’s five hours ahead of him.

He supposes it was always going to end this way, though. There’s only so much flirting and so many late-night, affectionate calls before someone falls in love, or in this case, both people fall in love. It was scary at first, the uncertainty of whether or not the distance would prove to be too much for the pair, but seeing as it’s been a year, Dream thinks it’s fine.

Loving George is as easy as breathing, as easy as living, coming like second nature to Dream. He’s sweet, he’s funny, he’s beautiful, and Dream’s sure that he’s in love with George in every other timeline and universe, because how couldn’t he be? George is the epitome of the good things in this world, all smiles and laughs with a snarky, sassy side that Dream loves to provoke. Dream understands why so many people faun over George. He’s been doing that professionally for years now.

He’s secure in his relationship with George. He knows that George is loyal, and that George loves him, and he’s proud to say that both of them are completely secure and trustful of the other.

But.

But.

When he sees Wilbur slipping glasses onto George’s face, when he sees George giggling at Wilbur’s jokes, when he sees Wilbur patting George’s head while aweing at how small he is, Dream’s pretty sure he sees red. He’s not mad at George or Wilbur. Seriously, he knows they’re just friends, and that’s painfully obvious in the way George acts around him. That doesn’t mean Dream isn’t jealous of them, though.

He’s jealous because Wilbur gets to touch George. He’s jealous because Wilbur gets to talk face-to-face with George. He’s jealous because Wilbur gets to be in George’s presence.

He’s jealous because he’s known George longer than Wilbur has, because he’s closer with George than Wilbur is, and yet he’s on the other side of the ocean, longing for his boy.

The jealousy festers in his gut, tugging and pulling any time he sees new pictures of them or tweets about how great of a duo they are, forcing itself throughout his bones and even into his voice. He knows people notice it during the Geoguessr stream, considering his timeline was solely jokes about him being jealous and clips of him, the caption labelling him as clingy. The worst part is he knows they’re all correct - he knows he’s clingy. He’s clingy to a fault, desperate for George’s attention and love and admiration, always needing to be talking to him in some way or else he feels gross inside.

It isn’t some form of unhealthy dependency. Dream can absolutely function without George, can do his day to day without him, and he often does when George is busy or when Dream’s just too tired or overwhelmed to deal with other people. It’s just that being around George makes him feel whole, complete, wanted, and being away from him feels empty.

Luckily for him, oh so luckily, George is back at his own flat.

Dream practically throws himself in his computer chair, sliding his headphones on and opening Discord, calling him the very moment George comes back online. He’s thrumming in excitement, tapping his foot wildly against the floor, nervously biting his lip.

He feels like a dog. Maybe there is some merit to the stan claims of him being a dogboy.

George eventually picks up, camera already on, a bright, happy smile beaming back at Dream.
