As soon as we left the store, I dug them out of a bag and handed the packet to him.
"Sorry," I mumbled.
"Thank you Dream," he replied with a smile, "Though you don't have anything to apologise for."
I grinned as he accepted the chocolate and he hugged me. Just a quick, little one. It was a 'thanks-for-buying-me-food-hug'. Anyways, who cares George hugged me.

"MOVIE NIGHT!" Sapnap yelled as he showered me and George in confectionery.
George sighed, "Sapnap, we have to eat dinner before all this."
I smacked my palm against my forehead: I knew how Sapnap was going to respond to George's comment, and he was not going to like it.
"Hello I'm George your honour, I am very british and I sip tea all day long and hang out with the queen and we eat dinner before dessert and do other british things!" Sapnap mocked in an awful attempt at a British accent.
I laughed so hard that I could barely breathe at George's irritated expression. Sapnap went over to him and slung his arm over his shoulder.
"I'm kidding!" he drawled, "George?"
"What?" George snapped, jokingly.
"I'm sorry..." he paused, "SORRY NOT SORRY!" And he grabbed George, lifted him into the air and threw him into the sofa.
I walked into the kitchen and started preparing the food that I was going to cook: bacon sandwiches. Simple right?
Correct answer to that question: no.
George and Sapnap joined me in the kitchen as I put the bacon strips on the grill.
"Watcha making Dream?" George asked, peering at the grill.
I replied, "Bacon sandwiches. You like those?"
Before he had a chance to answer that question, Sapnap screamed, "FIRE! Dream there's fire!"

A poof of smoke was coughed into the air and blazing flames danced on the blackened bacon.
"Oh my God! What did you do Dream?!" Sapnap shouted his voice high with fear.
Panicked, I started blowing at the amber flames but they just got larger and angrier.
"Don't blow it you idiot!" George screeched and shoved me out of the way. He grabbed a tea towel off the counter, and threw it over the the roaring fire. A scorching flames burst through the tea towel and burned George's hand.
He clenched his teeth in pain and stumbled backwards cradling his hand. Sapnap put water and another towel on the fire and I ran to help George.
His hand was red and looking very bad. Water was welling in his eyes and I helped George to the bathroom, dunking his burned hand in a sink full of cold water. He hissed with pain and. Sapnap scrambled into the room to help examine George's injury.
"George I'm sorry," I sighed, "This was supposed to be the best two weeks of your life and I screwed it up after the first day! I was late to pick you up from the airport! Then I snapped at you and then literally get caught of fricking fire!"
"Dream come on, those things don't matter! I'm having a great time so far so thank you!" George told me with a weak, unreassuring grin, "Anyways, I'm fine," he said through gritted teeth.

After we sorted out the situation
"Wait! Please can we watch Fast and Furious!" Sapnap begged as I flicked through movies to watch.
George opened a packet of chocolate eclairs and popped one into his mouth and then threw one at me. Sapnap was sprawled out in the lay-out part of the sofa and George was huddled into a corner of it. I was sat with a blanket over my shoulders and I was sat a beside him with several cushions in between us.

Around thirty minutes into the movie, George asked if he could have a blanket because he was cold.
"Oh um sorry I only have one blanket," I mumbled, "Um I guess if you scoot over a bit then we could share?"
He came over to me, and I pulled the big blanket off my shoulders and threw it over his legs, still leaving enough blanket to keep me warm too. George thanked me and snuggled up into the blanket.
A few minutes ticked by. My eyes were glued to the television and I was completely engrossed into the movie until I felt something heavy against my shoulder. My eyes darted from the TV screen and to my shoulder. I gasped.
George's head was resting on my shoulder and he was sleeping. The fuzzy blanket was pulled up the his neck and his legs were curled up in my direction. My cheeks burned red and I felt awkward, embarrassed, flustered, and happy all at the same time.
The peculiar fantasy faded back to reality as Sapnap burst out laughing as he looked at me.
Sapnap laughed his eyes darting from me to George then back to me, "You look so awkward!"
He was still chuckling and then he jokingly said, "Gay panic Dream?"
I flushed an even darker shade a scarlet and I could feel my heart rate increasing. Watching his chest rise and fall, I smiled knowing that George felt comfortable with sleeping on me. I convinced myself of that anyway until he woke up...
His eyelids fluttered and I turned my head. Our eyes locked. With wide eyes, he gasped and literally jumped away from me and fell onto the floor. Sapnap and I raised our eyebrows, eying George, confused.
"I'm so sorry Dream! I -I um I did mean to fall asleep on you. Sorry i-if I like made you feel uncomfortable..."
"Jeez George!" Sapnap chuckled, "Calm down, it wasn't that big of a deal."
I agreed with Sapnap and George calmed down after we all laughed it off. Not long after that, we all went to bed, exhausted. I drifted to sleep as soon as my head touched the pillow. It had been quite a day.

Of Righteous Evil
To wield the magical Arts. The power to manipulate nature itself. Follow Silas on his journey as he learns what it means to be a Mage. With war brewing on the horizon, Silas' plan to become a hero clashes with the harsh reality of conflict. Torn between contradicting emotions, he will have to reconsider his perceptions of both good and evil. Does the end truly never justify the means? Note from author (13.09.20): Sentences have been shortened, less commata used. Paragraphs have been split up. Meant to be "realistic" fantasy, with no overpowered protagonist or evil sorcerer trying to destroy the world. The focus lies on the characters, their progressions and their inner conflicts, coupled with an intricate magic system. Constructive criticism is highly appreciated!

Chapter 1 & 2 will be shown through reocurring dreams / nightmares. 10.08.21 Rewriting of the first arc is complete and has been proofread twice. Plot of rest of book one is 80% complete. Will publish chapters once first book is finished and proofread. 06.12.21 Second arc is finished (chapter 24/31-33). First draft will likely be finished around February, after which I will edit a few suggestions of my beta readers and publish it on RR.
