“And you can’t sleep in the guest house?”
Dream deflates, pathetic. He looks intently at Patches, scratching behind her little ears, like the two of them are telepathically communicating. George watches him, drinks in the flutter of his eyelashes, the way his chest shifts with gentle, calm breaths, how the hinges of the knuckles of his fingers bend and flex as he strokes along Patches’ spine.
Eventually, he looks up. “I can’t sleep in the guest house,” he declares, “because Patches will get sad if she can’t share a bed with me, and she’s not allowed in there overnight.” He says it as if it’s a definitive reason, even though Patches splits her time between all of the bedrooms, sometimes conking out on the couch for the night.
“A compelling argument,” George muses, adjusting his pretend-monocle as though he’s some sort of gentleman and not like he’s sitting in three-day-old sweatpants and a hoodie of Dream’s that he stole from a basket of clean laundry that hadn’t yet made it out of the laundry room. “I suppose I’ll have to concede.”

Dream shrugs, and finally, George notices the shadows under his eyes, darker than usual. “None of the guest beds are made and honestly? I don’t have the energy to deal with that, and Sapnap is streaming, so I figured-”
“Sure,” George cuts him off, playing with the hem of his shirt. “You can use mine, I probably won’t sleep for a while anyway, so.”
“So,” Dream parrots him, drawing the vowel out. “Uh- thanks. You can kick me out when you need it- I’ll probably just take a nap.”
“Okay, yeah, I’m just going to edit now. Have a nice nap.” And George is turning back to his computer, feeling the pull of productivity and wanting to get away from the feelings that are burbling in his stomach.
“If you see Milo tell him to fuck off,” Dream adds, as he walks in the direction of George’s bedroom. “Or to go shit on Sapnap’s bed again.”
