《A Bromance to Remember》Out and About
Advertisement
Around noon, the Dream Team decided that they should get out of the house. Once they were all showered and dressed, they left George's apartment.
Since they had given him a day at the fair, he wanted to give them a week full of London. This included taking him to all of his favorite shops, showing them his favorite places, and doing all of the things he enjoyed.
To start with, he took them to the park. It was one of the few places in the city that wasn't a concrete jungle. The park was only a couple of blocks from George's apartment, so they had no problem walking there.
"What's so special about this place, George?" Dream asked. George smiled, still looking around at the trees spread out randomly throughout the area.
"It has life. Not many places in London look so, well, park-like. In case you haven't noticed, everything is grey and concrete. This has always been my escape from all of the craziness around me."
The other two had a new appreciation for the place, considering they wanted the best for George.
The three spent the next few minutes wandering around the park.
"One time, I dropped my phone in that little fountain over there."
"Another time, I tried to jump that bench but forgot how short I am."
Georg continued to bring up memories like this as they passed by different locations in the park. After about 20 minutes, they began to make their way towards the entrance of the park. As soon as they were out, George was already walking down the sidewalk again. Sapnap and Dream glanced at each other, shrugged, and followed him.
After about 10 minutes of walking, George stopped. He gestured to the small building in front of them before walking inside. Once again, the other two followed. Inside, the smell of cookies, bacon, and fresh bread floated through the air. Sapnap's eyes opened wider as his nose took in the wondrous aroma.

George was already at the counter ordering something. He told the other two to pick out a table. A few minutes later, George arrived with three small packages in his hands. He passed one to Sapnap, one to Dream, and kept one for himself. George began to unwrap his, so the others followed suit.
Once the paper was pulled back, a sandwich of sorts could be seen. And in all honesty? It looked kinda gross.
"George, what the hell is this?" Dream asked as he wheezed. George had a look of shock on his face.
"That is a delicious salt beef bagel thank you very much."
After Dream had finished wheezing, he and Sapnap took their first bite. It was not as bad as Sapnap had expected. Heck, he thought it was pretty darn good! But the look on Dream's face said that he wasn't a fan.
A few moments later, the three were back out on the sidewalk in front of the store.
"Where to now?" Sapnap asked.
George simply shrugged and said, "You'll see," as he continued to walk. About 15 minutes later, they were back at the park.
"I didn't take us this long to go from the park to the bakery," Dream noticed.
George shrugged. "I took the long way so you guys wouldn't know where we were going."
Sapnap scoffed. "And why, exactly, are we back at the park? I thought you wanted to show us all of London, not just two places over and over again."
George smiled. "We have all week. But for now, I really want to play hide and seek."
Dream started wheezing. "Hide and seek? Are you, like, 7?"
George flashed him a rude gesture, then continued on. "I came out here a few times with my friends when I was a kid to okay hide and seek. I just kinda wanted to relive a childhood memory." Sapnap didn't seem to care how or why they played, he was just excited. "Alright, well who's it?" Dream and Sapnap immediately turned to George who was already shaking his head. He smiled. "That's okay, just remember why you lost."

George was sat down on a park bench. He had specific orders to count to "60 Mississippi". George had no idea why an American state had anything to do with how he was counting, but he counted anyways.
"59...60. Ready or not, here I come!"
The park was almost completely empty, which was perfect for a bunch of grown men to play hide and seek without receiving any stares or mean looks.
George was already walking towards a tree to the left of the bench he had counted from. He knew almost every good hiding spot in the park, so he had no doubts he could find his two friends fairly quickly.
When he got to the tree, he looked up to see Sapnap crouched in one of the lower branches of the tree. He was looking around, to his left and right, but hadn't noticed George standing right beneath him. George coughed to grab his attention. Sapnap looked down, and a look of disappointment crossed his face. Once he was out of the tree, he began to walk in step with George, who was already heading towards his next hiding spot.
"How did you find me so fast? Were you cheating? Did you even close your eyes?"
George laughed. "Yes, I did close my eyes, no, I did not cheat, and you chose the easiest hiding spot in the whole park. So naturally, I found ya pretty fast."
Sapnap groaned. By now, they were already nearing George's next guess of a hiding spot. He checked in and around the garbage can, knowing that Dream would do almost anything to win a competition. He wasn't there. The boys spent the next 20 minutes looking around the park, but they still couldn't find Dream.
George sighed. "I hate to admit it, but I think I'm going to just have to give up. I'll call Dream, then we can leave." George pulled out his phone and clicked on Dream's contact. The phone buzzed at his ear a few times, but then he heard an all to familiar ringtone somewhere behind him. He took his phone away from his ear and followed the sound, Sapnap not far behind. As they neared a tree, it sounded like Dream was right next to them. George looked in and around the tree. As he was beginning to walk away, he saw Sapnap's face go pale.
"Sap...what is it?" Sapnap didn't speak, he just simply bent over a pulled an all too familiar piece of metal off the ground. George's jaw dropped as he looked at Dream's dirt-covered phone. After a few moments of shock, Sapnap finally said something.
"George, I...I don't know where Dream is."

A journey through the mind can be a mixture of the good, the bad, the pure, and the evil. Free Your Mind is a collection of poems and short stories that I've written over the years. As of now, this book is still in progress, but I've planned to release at least 25 to 30 chapters minimum for Free Your Mind. Hopefully you enjoy reading through the works already published for this book, and I hope you'll stick around for what's to come in the future. If you have any comments, ideas, critiques, etc. please let me know! I'm always open to what people have to say about my work. Free Your Mind is a way for me to dabble into releasing my writings for the public to read. And hopefully, if all goes decent with this book, I'll continue to upload different works alongside this. Note: Currently the cover work for Free Your Mind isn't mine. I plan to upload an original design once I've completed the chapters for this book.
