Dreamie and Sapnap were playing wrestling in Dream’s room, the two laughing as Dream’s lanky body wouldn’t work with his regressed state, so it was easy for Sapnap to win most fights and throw others when he didn’t want Dream to get discouraged. Dream’s computer was playing just some disney playlist, but it was abruptly stopped by a discord ring.
“Georgie’s calling,” Sapnap said, detailing himself from Dreamie to answer the call. “Hey, George. Dream’s little right now.”
“Okay, that’s fine, I just… I didn’t want to be alone,” George whispered, his camera was off, but he was quieter than usual.
“Hey, what’s going on?” Sapnap asked.
“Nothing, I’m just tired,” George mumbled. “How long had Dream been small for?”
“Couple of hours, nothing crazy,” Sapnap responded, not believing George at all. “What’s going on?”
“My sister came over,” George mumbled, “I started doing what you told me to do, you know, keeping of the things that help the fuzz in one spot. It’s just in a box, but she surprised me, and the box was in the middle of my bed. Proceeded to make fun of me for about an hour before we moved on. But, I dunno, I just feel weird now. Like it’s really weird.”
“Some people don’t understand it, that’s for sure, it’s not for everyone, but that doesn’t make it weird,” Sapnap promised, “It’s just another form of comfort, is all. And it’s okay to want to be comfortable.”
“I just want to move over there already, I’m so tired of being judged constantly by them,” George admitted. “I’m waiting for the response on my visa, so it’s just a matter of time before I’m shot down again.”
“Don’t think so negatively,” Sapnap tried to reason.
“Why? They turn me down every other time,” George scoffed.
“I know, but this time might be different, this could be better. You gotta keep your chin up, for us,” Sapnap said, running a hand through Dreamie’s hair as he leaned against Sapnap’s knee, still sitting on the floor listening to them.
“I just wanna come home,” George whispered, and Sapnap could hear the crack in his voice and the congestedness of his tone.
“We want you to come home too, Georgie,” Sapnap whispered gently, looking down at Dream who was now pouting. “Do you wanna watch some movies with us? That always cheers you up. It’d just be some silly disney movies though.”
“Yeah,” George sniffed. “Yeah, that’d be great, actually.”
“Okay, I’ll get it set up.”

Dream was downstairs doing something, probably cleaning, and Sapnap was busy editing their next video when his discord rang. He answered it without a second though, already knowing it was George.
“Hey, I’m still editing that video. Do you want me to use that one scene in the cave? I know you said to cut it out but I mean it’s really fucking funny-”
“I got it,” George cut him off, causing Sapnap to pause his typing.
“What?” Sapnap asked, looking at the screen to see George’s face, who looked both delighted and absolutely terrified.
“I got it,” He repeated, holding up the paperwork, his face breaking out into a smile with teary eyes. “I get to come home.”
“You’re fucking me,” Sapnap whispered.
“No- I, I tried calling Dream but he wasn’t answering-”
“Hold on-” Sapnap said, immediately standing and leaving his room. “Dream! Clay!” He shouted as he rang through the house, finding Dream in the kitchen.
“What? What happened, are you okay?” Dream asked, instantly worried.
“He got it!” Sapnap smiled, “Georgie’s coming home!” He laughed, tears springing his own eyes as he ran back up the stairs, Dream hot on his trail, and into his room where George was shouting and running around in his room like an excited puppy.
“I got it!” George laughed, coming to sit back down when he saw the boys reappear.
Dream shouted his classic “LETS GO!” at the top of his lungs, Sapnap was basically crying along with George, and Patches was perched upon Sapnap’s bed to see what the fuss was about. Sapnap and George made eye contact while Dream screamed into one of Sapnap’s pillows. They both knew this was what they needed. Sapnap needed both of his boys, and Georgie needed his Nana.
