    Summary

    “The last thing I remember is summer starting.” Dream grasps for some anchor in his memories to point to where exactly they stop going forward. “We were going to go to visit your family in the UK, but I don’t remember the trip at all.” 
    George pales. “What?”
    The trip was supposed to be most of June. It’s November. Dream steels himself against another crisis, at least for now. “I can’t remember the last six months,” he says, more to himself than to George. It comes out barely a whisper on his lips but George’s eyes widen.
    “I’ll find a doctor.”

    -

    Dream wakes up in the hospital confused and aching and stuck six months in the past. No one ever thinks they're going to be in an accident until it happens. No one thinks they're going to have trauma-induced amnesia either. George is acting weird. Sapnap is acting like he's fragile. The only one who doesn't seem to care that he's different is Patches, and that's just because she's a cat. How do you go forward when you can't remember how you got where you are?

    Summary

    “I just want to be able to tell you in more than one way, I guess.”

    Dream’s chest bounces on a small laugh, but George knows he’s not the butt of the joke. He traces his fingers over Dream’s collarbone, connecting freckles like constellations as he finds the rest of his thoughts.

    “It’s hard for me. But I really do mean it. All of it.”

    Or, five times Dream shows his love for George and one time George loves him in return. Maybe he can’t do it in all the ways Dream can, but he’s never been afraid of his honesty.

    Summary

    In an unfair world like this, sometimes people fall in love with their soulmates after they are dead.
    Just like Draco Malfoy does.

    Summary

    “Dream,” George says, as soon as he can see the other. He’s breathless- he’s just grabbed Lucy from where she was chasing after Cat, and he settles her on his lap quickly. He spits it out before he gets too nervous and backs out. “Will you pretend to be my boyfriend for Christmas?”

    Dream is silent for a count of eight- George ticks every second in his head. Then, slowly, Dream breaks into a grin.

    “Hello to you too,” he says, laughing in that charming way, and God does George need to get his feelings under control if this is going to work. “Hello, Lucy.”

    “Hi, Dream!” Lucy responds, waving at the computer screen. One of her hands comes up to rest on George’s chin, and she squeezes. He bats her arm down, and she pouts up at him.
