Dream lifts his head high, taking in the smell of burning wood around him. He looks back at the ruins of the forest with a strange smile.

Taking off his mask, he drops it onto the ground and continues his long walk, shoving his hands in his pockets and keeping his head low.

His hair covers the top of his eyes, just leaving room to see what's in front of him. And in this moment, he thinks of no other than George.

George, his beloved, beloved George.

The things he'd do for him.

Dream's said once before that he'd go to the ends of the Earth for him, and it's true. That still stands. No amount of twisting turning bullshit will change that.

Not even the prison's poison that twisted his morals into some sick game.

Dream smiles to himself as he passes a flower bed, deciding to pick up a few on the way.

Dream gets on his knees, picking only the finest ones for his beloved.

Once he's found enough, Dream stands and holds them in the palm of his bloodied, bruised, cracked hands.

"George, oh George. It won't be long now. One of these days you'll wake up and everything will be just as it should be. The curse will be broken and we will live in an everlasting love together. I swear on it."

Dream sighs heavily, looking up at the sky with a smile. He thinks of all of the beautiful things they'll do together, hand in hand, completely unaware of what's happening right now with George.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~

George and DreamXD now lay in the grass holding hands.

There was a scene much like this before, except they kept their distance and there wasn't flowers scattered all over their clothes.

George giggles, looking over to DreamXD who's simply ignoring everything else around him.

He finally beat Dream in something.

He gets to see George in his fullest.

He sees George laugh and roll around, enjoying himself.

Dream? There was always some kind of negative tension between the two of them.

But DreamXD knows George better than that. He knows what makes George laugh, cry, smile, curse, scream, and pretty much everything.

He's done things in the past that George wasn't proud of, but he bettered himself since then.

His jokes actually make George laugh.

Even if he doesn't understand them, George finds them worth laughing over and that's all that matters.

''''''''''''

Dream opens a door to a cabin in the woods, stripping himself of his torn down and broken armor and casting it to the side. While he's at it, he changes his clothes and re-bandages up any of the wounds that are remaining.

Dream looks at himself in the mirror, not even recognizing himself in the mirror.

"Damn, Quackity really fucked me up. Didn't he?"

Dream laughs to himself, shaking his head. After a moment of staring, he splashes his face with water and scrubs the blood of his long forgotten bestfriend, off his arms, legs, face, neck, and anywhere else it had splattered onto.

Dream then throws the rag off, grabbing the flowers and walking to a bed.

He sits on the edge of that bed and removes the covers with a smile.

There lays George in an eternal slumber, frozen in time.

Dream lays the flowers in a vase beside him with other wilted, and wilting, flowers.

Dream rubs the side of George's cheek and whispers, "I'll see you when I fall asleep."

''''''''''

The night came quickly, and Dream found a lovely place to sleep.

A flowerbed.

It reminded him so much of George, that he just had to.

As he fell asleep, he just knew that nobody would ever find him. Not where he was.

As the world around him changed into a fantasy land, dozen of doors appeared in front of his very eyes.

Dream, like always, scans the doors. He looks at each different world he's made, a different portal color and design for each of those.

But he stares at one the most; a portal that's blue with mushrooms and vines pouring from the sides.

Walking towards it, Dream's pace quickens.

He can't wait to see his beloved.

He can't wait to see George.

~~~~~~~

DreamXD feels a shiver in his body, and he immediately sits up. George pauses and looks at DreamXD, "Something wrong?"

DreamXD sighs, "He's back."

George nods and looks over at DreamXD, grabbing his hand.

"I'll see you tomorrow then."

DreamXD looks at George with a bitter smile, "Of course. Forever and always."

And DreamXD disappears just as Dream comes into view.

~~~~~~~

Dream sees George and his heart leaps out of his chest. He rushes over, tackling George in a hug.

George is overwhelmed by the contagious laughter, and simply goes along with the vibe.

The two hug one another, just melting in the embrace.

George doesn't even mean to.

Dream breaks away and exclaims, "George! How are you? I'm sorry I couldn't visit sooner. I was uh, busy running."

George smiles and shakes his head, "I'm good. What about you? Anything happen that I need to know about?"

Dream smirks, tapping George's nose with each syllable, "Not a single thing."

~~~~~~~

DreamXD flies up from the forest and sees a horrible wildfire.

His eyes widen, and he quickly tries to put in commands to save his home.

But it's already too late.

DreamXD watches in horror. He watches buildings burn, and he sees people running around trying to save what they can.

It's a terrifying sight.

And it's even worse because everyone knows exactly who did this.

DreamXD races to action, trying to help people that he can.

He's trying to make sure people don't lose their canon lives. The screams of all the members together sound the same.

He cares for these people.

And to see their homes burning down to the ground is unbelievably upsetting.

DreamXD spends the rest of his night that leads into days helping people get to safety.

He has business to take care of afterwards.

~~~~~~~~~~~~

DreamXD takes a long sigh, staring down at the sleeping Dream in a flowerbed.

He's been sleeping for the past few days, all too caught up in his love and greed for George.

He won't be waking up after this.

DreamXD takes out a dagger, turning it around in his hands. He frowns, knowing how badly this will effect George.

But it needs to happen. There's no avoiding this.

DreamXD looks around Dream's body before deciding to just use a command.

As Dream's belonging and things drop, his body disappears. He can only imagine what's happening now.

~~~~~~~

Dreams body glitches, and he looks down. Dream begins to panic. He grabs George's face and whispers frantically, "They found me. Someone found me. How did I not wake up? What the hell? George, wait don't leave me. George please. George. George help. George, please. George wait for me. Please hang around. I-I'll be back! Please-"

George grabs Dream's face whispering, "Hey, just let me go. We'll meet again soon."

Dream pleads. He begs for George to help, even though he physically can't do anything but watch.

As Dream's body deteriorates, George chokes back tears.

It's a painful sight.

And it's like out of desperation, Dream kisses George.

But Dream's entire being just disappears in his arms.

The curses have been broken.

And soon, peace will unfold again.

~~~~~~~

George gasps for breath, shooting up from his bed. He looks around frantically, patting himself down to make sure he's alive.

As he looks around, he meets the eyes of DreamXD.

And out of happiness and sadness, he hugs DreamXD.

DreamXD slowly puts his hands on George's head, "Hey."

George sniffles and laughs, "Hi."

DreamXD and George stand there, an unspoken understanding between the two of them.

They both know what had to be done.

And they can hear the cheers from everyone on the SMP around them.
