George's POV
School was done for the day. Both Clay and I were walking towards his residence. I check the address and discovered that it was just a couple of blocks away from the apartment. Which was very convenient, maybe one day I would be able to invite him at my home as well.

We stopped at a grey house. It was a two floored house with small garden at the front and garage on the side. "And we're here" The dirty blond said as he opened the door for me. I giggled and entered before him. The interior was nice, wooden walls, some painting and photos hanging on them. A small living room with a hallway that certainly leaded to the kitchen, and a staircase that leaded to the second floor. They also had chimney (fireplace) with some plants on it, cute enough.

"This is my father's place. He has full custody of my sister and half of mine which why I'm staying with my mother sometime. So don't be surprise if you see a child running around." He explained, almost laughing at the remark. I chuckled along but then we got interrupted by someone walking to us. "Hi, Dream" a 12 years old girl ran to the blond and hugged him tight. She had similar features to Clay, same dirty blond hair and green (yellow?) Eyes. Must be his sister he was talking about earlier.

"Hi Drista." Clay greeted as he took her in his arms. "George, this is Terra or you can call her Drista, the sister I was talking of. And Drista this is George" he introduced before Drista interrupted "Is he your boyfriend?". Both Clay and I got red for some reason. Clay cleared his throat affirming that we were not dating or anything of the sort.

Then I thought popped in my mind. "Terra? Like terracotta?" I remarked and Clay looked at me with a nervous look. He laughed nervously before nodding, scared I would make fun of their names. Which wasn't the case, it was quite original and cute. "Clay and Terracotta. That's adorable. Your parents know how to give original names." I smiled and his gaze softened.

He let go off his sister and told her to go play while we go to our homework in his bedroom. As we walked upstairs to get to his room, I asked him where his father was. He told me that he would be home later, he worker a lot. "Then who takes care of your sister?" I asked in a concerned tone. "Our neighbour but she goes back to our house before I get home, so my sister is alone for a few moments before I arrive." I nodded incomprehension. I guess, that's how their day goes.

We were now in his bedroom. I was explaining the lessons to him and he gladly took notes. We were solving an equation and then Clay proposed to take a break.

A 5 minute break wouldn't hurt. We continued to talk and soon the five minute turned into 10 and the ten into 15 and so on. "You really are colorblind, Georgie" He laughed as I could distinguish the yellow? and the green? books he was holding. "You really are an idiot, Dream" I replied, playfully glaring at him. His eyes widened. "You called me Dream?" My face flustered slightly as I nodded. He smiled and scoffed before looking away.

A few minutes later, I heard someone walk towards. At first, Drista came into my thought, but the footsteps seemed to be louder than hers. Then someone opened the door. It was a man around 45 year old, he was only a few centimeters shorter than Dream. He looked a lot like Dream too but older with a beard. "Ah Clay. I'm sorry. I didn't know you had a friend over" he said. "Oh it's okay Dad." Dream replied and the older one nodded. "I will leave you two" he exclaimed, smiling before leaving the room.

"Sorry about that" Dream excused. But I told him it was fine. Then we stayed in a small silence before he spoke again. "Hey wanna go out sometime? Or maybe if you're too busy, it's okay." He said, rubbing the back of his neck. His face was red and he looked ensure and scared. I didn't know why. He was just trying to hang out, right? "Of course, we can do that. I was looking forward on hanging out with you too" I smiled and he seemed happy but somewhat disappointed.
