↳ first oneshot of george! honestly out of the three, george is the most underrated member of the dream team. i also love how we get to see more of his bubbly and extra personality whenever he's with quackity and karl and i- really love that. what i don't like tho is most of the fandom babying him when he's fricking 24 years old (iirc).

↳anyway, enjoy!

"George has a girlfriend."

"No, I don't-!"

"Yeah, you do. George has a girl-"

"No, I don't!" He repeated. "Sapnap, stop bugging me!"

You rolled your eyes at the constant bickering between the two streamers. As their fandom would call it, they're fighting like an 'old married couple'.

How could he just straight-up deny that he's in a relationship when you're just downstairs visiting him for a week and cooking for him? That doesn't sound fucking right.

Oh, yeah.

It's because of his 'stans'.

Now you're not here to hate, but you have to agree that most of the fandom majorly consists of teenage girls. They're the most socially active part of the group and you have to admit, you're kind of scared of them.

They crazed about George's face every second or two, they freak out whenever his voice drops an octave and wears a smirk on his face.

Sometimes it has gotten out of control and it bothers you to no end that George isn't doing anything.

It has gotten to the point where even Sapnap, Dream, Alex, and Karl have sympathy for what you're going through.

You try to be patient and understand that it had to be this way. George is an influential content creator with a young audience. You have to respect that any of his personal information is supposed to be private and a secret. He said that he's doing this to make you safe and you are more than grateful for that.

But every time he pretends in front of his viewers that he's not with you, giving them the idea that he could be dating anyone right now (perhaps Dream), your heart slowly aches.

You didn't wanna think about it anymore so you turned off your phone and carelessly let it drop on the counter before paying attention to the small pot of chicken noodle soup.

Meanwhile, the said man was getting hungry by the minute that he didn't realize that it's almost time for dinner when his alarm rang.

"Ohh!" Sapnap's voice overtook George's headphones for a moment as he flinched by the sudden increase of volume. "Is that your girlfriend calling you? Oooooh-"

"It's my alarm, idiot." George retorted before laughing at the insult. He quickly turned it off before the tone could get stuck in his mind. "Well-" he cut himself off by stretching up his arms and curling his shoulders on the back of his office chair, his red hoodie slightly lifting up. He let out a sound of satisfaction.

"Ah, that's hot." Quackity commented out of nowhere.

"What?" George.

"What?" Sapnap.

"What?" Quackity.

"Okay..." George trailed off as he clicked on Twitch to see if anyone's streaming. "I'm gonna end stream! Are any of you streaming?"

"Uh- I could? But what should I stream?" Sapnap chimed.

"Minecraft, obviously. That's what you're always good at." Alex replied.

"Aw, you know me so well babe."

"Of course, sweetheart."

"Oh my God..." George laughed at the tomfoolery displaying in front of him.

After a few minutes of wrapping it up, he eventually ended the stream, putting his PC to sleep, and got up, bringing his phone with him. The moment he walked out of the room he streams in, he immediately followed the scent of soup and found himself on the entrance of the kitchen and also found you there, sitting on a stool and quietly eating a bowl of hot noodles.

George thought you looked so flipping domestic just sitting there comfortably with your feet propped on the bar below the seat of the chair, blowing the steam off the spoon before slurping the soup.

Perhaps you were totally in too deep with your thoughts that you didn't even realize George was in the room with you before he swooped in and wrapped you in a hug, kissing your cheek.

"Hi."

You smiled weakly. "Hey." Your mood has been significantly dampened since you watched the stream earlier, but you didn't wanna tell him that yet.

He grabbed himself a bowl and served himself the soup before deciding to place his seat beside you.

After a suffering few moment, you broke the ice. "How was the stream?"

"It was alright, to say the least."

"Bet Sapnap was annoying with the constant teasing from him." You tried to be nonchalant by continuing to eat soup.

George slowly placed the spoon near his lips. "You were watching?"

"I just peeked a little, ya know... I was curious."

You knew he was looking at you. "Did you... see the bit?"

"Uh, what bit?" You opted for the option of being dumb.

He dropped it, maybe he was relieved when you didn't see it but in reality you actually did?

At the moment, you are giving yourself the courage to actually open up to him about this, but knowing George he would probably avoid the question and hope that you could drop it. But you won't let it happen to you again, and this was important. You just wanted clarification and a clear explanation from him to prevent your mind from spiraling even further.

George was almost done with his bowl while yours was long forgotten. It had gotten quite cold and spoon was slowly sinking. He had noticed this, however, and slowly come to a stop.

"Y/N?" You didn't answer, but you blinked as if you just woke up from a daydream. "What's wrong?" He asked.

Your hands were in your lap, fiddling with each fingers as you looked down. "George?"
He hummed.

"Yeah?"

"George, do you still love me?"

You finally faced him, and your look- and your question at the same time- almost broke him. This made him overthink and he felt so on the spot right now. What made you ask this? What happened that you had to question his love for you? Did he do something wrong? He began listing the thousands of thousands of possibilities that could cause the doubt. This could be the start of your break-up-

"George?"

His brows furrowed suddenly. "Y/N, of course I still love you." He reached for your hand. One good thing was that you didn't pull away.

You nodded slowly and stared at the marbled counter. "Hm."

"What made you ask me that? Did I do something wrong?"

"Uh, it's nothing. I just thought that maybe... you'd forget?"

"Y/N? Why would I forget?" His tone was so offended that you might've laughed if the situation wasn't so heavy right now. "I love you, okay? You're my girlfriend! I-" He paused, in a sudden realization. "I-is this about that secret thing again?"

"I didn't say anything?!"

George sighed. "Y/N, you know I do that to keep you safe-"

You flinched your hand back. "George, why can't you see that there's a better solution without any of us getting hurt? Just tell them you have a girlfriend! You don't have to say that it's me."

"But-"

"But what? Who the hell is stopping you? You-"

"I'm scared, okay?!" He snapped. "I'm scared of what will happen once they know I have a girlfriend. See, if I want to do a reveal, I didn't think I could just say that I have a girlfriend then end the stream you know? I want to show you off, tell everyone that my girlfriend is you. Y/N.

But what will happen once I do that? Sure, most of my fans will like you, but there's gonna be people who will start doxxing you, harrassing you, send death threats and other horrible stuff. I don't want that to happen to you."

After hearing his heartfelt explanation, you sighed and grabbed his hands. "George... you know I'm not gonna fend them off by myself. I have you, remember? You've always protected me, so I know I can always rely on you. We'll face the hardships together. I don't care what the people would say about me, us. This is super cheesy, but as long as I have you, I wouldn't want to worry about a single thing."

George let out a sigh of relief. "I love you."

"I love you." You gave him a chaste kiss. "I don't even want to show my face on the internet. You can just say my name or call me on Discord and I will pick up. OR! I could like drop you off your snacks or whatever."

He laughed as he kissed the bridge of your nose. "You're already planning ahead of me."

"Please I have been wanting to troll Sapnap so bad, you have no idea."

"That's my girl."
