《second best // dnf》17. I Missed You
Advertisement
After scrolling for over an hour, I came across a particular Tweet posted by a fan, I felt anger rise in my stomach and tears swimming in my eyes. The Tweet read:
RIP George! You will be missed a lot but now you're in a better place <3
_____________________________
We ended the stream because of that 1 particular donation. It was a bad thing to do; everyone thinks George is dead - when he is most certainly not.
He is unconscious, but still alive. All over Twitter, people had posted random stuff of him telling him to rest in peace. I desperately wanted to tell the fans that George was alive but Dream said that its ''none of there fucking business''
Dream never leaves the hospital, I get him food and drinks and sometimes I go to see Karl and the others who are all staying at an air bnb about five minutes away from the house. I think they should come and visit the hospital but -once again- Dream disagrees, so we can't. I know he thinks that, that is what is best for George however I there is no harm done if they did come.
I just returned home from trip out to MacDonald's, to grab Dream and I something to eat for dinner. With two bags of food dangling from my hands, I entered George's hosptial room and smiled. Curled up in a chair in the corner of the room, fast asleep was Dream. A thick, fuzzy blanket was draped over his shoulders and his head rested on the arm of the chair. I knew if I was in the room, then I would wake him and Dream really needed sleep; he hasn't slept in like fourty hours. Creeping silently out of the room, I left him alone to rest.

_______________________________
Tiredness was starting to catch up with me, I could barely give my eyes open but I desperately wanted to stay awake. In the end, I decided to rest my eyes for a while and sleepily rested my head on the arm of the chair and fell into a deep sleep.
I could hear something. My eyes still felt heavy and I was still unbelievably tired. Shifting around in the uncomfortable chair, I tried to find a decent position to nap in. Then I heard the noise again. It was like a grumble - kind of. I rubbed my bleary eyes and stretched.
"Dream?" I heard a small voice croak.
My eyes snapped open.
"George?" I said quite loudly.
"Dream?" the voice said again.
I practically fell out of my chair and crawled over to the bed, I looked up to see him, his eyes fluttering slightly. I squeezed his hand, to let him know that I was there. Softly, I asked, "George can you hear me?"
"Dream," he sounded panicked, "Where am I? What happened?"
"I um you were in a um car accident George..."
"What??!!" He tried to sit up but I ordered him to lay back down.
"Oh George! I'm so sorry."
"Why are you sorry?"
I realised something, he had no recollection of our fight. I raised my hand, and they found there way to his cheek. He winced as I touched his face and I immediately pulled my hand away. Then, I burst into the tears. George looked terrifyed.
"Dream? Dream? Are you okay?" I chuckled through my sobs at his concern.
"George for God's sake I'm fine! You're the one in hospital because of me!"
He frowned and croaked, "Because of you?"

Both of our pairs of eyes diverted to the door as Sapnap burst in.
"Nurses said-" His mouth dropped open, "George?!" He threw himself at George and squeezed him tight. George let out a little cry. Sapnap loosened his grip and whispered apologetically into his ear, not wanting to let go. I'm glad he came in, I didn't want to explain how he got in the accident.
George was exhausted despite being unconscious for five days and he kept dozing off to sleep as we spoke to him.
_____________________________
My eyelids fluttered. A throbbing pain lingered in my head; my leg hurt a lot too. My face stung a little and well every part of me ached. The light in the room was blinding; I could only squint my eyes open. There was a beeping noise in the background, it was very annoying and it just added to my horrid headache. My brain felt like mush. I had no idea where I was or why I was here. Suddenly, I felt very nervous.
Lifting my head slightly, I noticed that someone else was in the room was me, asleep in a chair. They had messy, blonde hair hanging down in the way of their eyes and they looked quite tall.
"Dream?" I croaked. My voice sounded raw and hoarse and very British. It didn't even sound like my voice. The blonde boy stirred. "Dream?"
"George?" The boy said back. He looked up at me and came scrabbling over to the bed. "George can you hear me?" I ignored the question.
Panic was rising in my voice, "Dream? Where am I? What happened?"
Dream looked me in the eyes, they were glimmering with guilt, "I um you were in a um car accident..."
"What?!" My heart rate frenzied. I established that the beeping was my heart rate as they were both in time. I attempted to sit up but he made me lay down again. Dream looked like he was going to cry.
"Oh George! I'm so sorry."
I was confused. Dream hadn't done anything wrong, right?
I asked, "Why are you sorry?". He reached his arm forward to touch my face. When his fingers touched my cheek, I winced, it hurt.
Dream quickly pulled his hand away and he burst into tears. I was terrifyed. Did I do something wrong?
"Dream?" I asked, scared that I did something wrong, "Dream? Are you okay?"
He chuckled through his sobs. "George for God's sake I'm fine! You're the one in hospital because of me!"
I frowned and croaked, "Because of you?"
Was it Dream's fault I was in hospital?

The Pugilist
Vincent Roy Salazar has never been your common folk. He climbed any mountain he found in front of him. From a bright young student to an accomplished professor, his life can be described as a continuous race to the top of his chosen fields. Patriarch of a loving family, proud father of three already grown siblings, Roy realizes that his life is the perfect picture of what the average man strives for, and for that he is truly grateful. But happiness is a difficult-to-reach goal, and as he lies in a pool of his own blood, his fist cracked, a young lady crying while cradling his head, he remembers what really gave sense to his youth. Pure Unadulterated Violence The Pugilist wants to be a different take on isekai shenanigans. What would happen if instead of a moronic idiot, a depressed high schooler, or a wannabe hero the one to get his do-over is a fully grown man that has already seen what life has to offer in full? Someone who conformed himself to society, but has always craved something different? In a journey of self-discovery, academy building, god-slaying, and absolutely no harem we follow someone driven by logic, experience, and a smokey goal: to fuck shit up, have fun while doing so, and maybe resume his career as a professor for those strange, magic-wielding, unstable youths that seems to never get enough of his presence. Guys, a few notes, first of all, this is my first time writing long-form fiction. I have a background in psychology, and my main income comes from writing dreary financial articles on SEO blogs. But after a bad break-up, and finding myself falling asleep only while thinking of deus ex machina for stories on this site (and for APGTE) I decided to try my hand at this web series thingy. I'm confident in my grammar, but that's it. Everything else will be a first time, and as such any constructive criticism is encouraged and gratefully accepted. Now, on the story. Romance will be introduced once my little heart is mended, if you are scared of LGBT you may be turned off by the fact that I plan to have no taboo of any kind in my universe, but I won't ever write detailed sex scenes for any characters so don't worry too much. The litRPG part is very light and will take place later in the novel, but it's a key component nonetheless, for world-building and storyline reasons. I already have everything big planned out, so I won't drop it outta nowhere, and I hope you won't find too many flaws in how things pan out. I plan to make The Pugilist an interactive story, with secondary characters created by my audience and introduced after tweaks and careful planning. The main reason I'm writing this is that I want to build a community for myself in this time of isolation. I discovered that exercising, playing the piano or video games means jack-shit when you are utterly miserable, so I hope to give some value to my readers in exchange for praise, fame, money, and companionship. I give full props to anyone who has read this whole mess of a synopsis: I hope to not disappoint too much, now let's write some more steaming garbage that will be in dire need of editing later on.

Earth's First Dungeon
Reginald Montgomery was a high class Rules Lawyer, specializing in the 'art' of Min-Maxing a Character. He had been the secret behind the ability of the Guild 'Eternal Gamer' being able to obtain the World First Clears of various MMOs for the last five years. The political entities of the world had hidden the imminent approach of a gigantic meteor, of similar size to the one that theoretically wiped out the dinosaurs, until it was able to be spotted by high powered astronomical telescopes. The United Nations sends nukes into a crater located deep on the meteor, breaking it into millions of smaller fragments, except for around two areas, where there was a building that looked like an old school Roman temple and one where there was a giant metallic cube. The cube crashed into Reginald's backyard, and his 'gamer' senses were itching at the chance of supremely valuable loot. Upon investigating, he is injected with a control crystal for a 'Construction Core', but when it releases an extremely high density of pressurized mana, his body seizes up and the Core draws his mind into it before merging the control crystal back into the Core and retreating into the Cube and digging itself deeper. Two months later, Reginald becomes aware again, only to find out that nothing is as it was and he is now the Earth's First Dungeon...
