《second best // dnf》45. We're going to England

He ran into my room and I clicked accept.
"George! Oh my God! I'm so glad you called! I-"
George cut me off, "DREAM! DREAM! HE'S HERE!" he was shrieking down the phone and he sounded very scared and panicked, "HE'S IN MY HOUSE! IM HIDING BUT HE'S HERE DREAM!"
"George!" I exclaimed, still registering what he had just said, "Calm down, who's in your house?"
"HE'S HERE! EZRA'S HERE!"
George let out a terrible, ear-splitting scream and the line went dead.
________________________________
The line went dead. Dream immediately called him back. Fear and panic in his eyes but the call went straight through to voicemail.
"No, no, no, no, no!" he yelled, frantically tapping his phone, clutching it with a white-knuckled grip.
I blinked a few times, with my mouth hanging open, still trying to register what had just happened.
Dream and I stared at each other, wide-eyed and in disbelief. I opened my mouth to say something, but before it came out, Dream rushed upstairs. I chased after him yelling, "Dream! What the hell are you doing?"
Hurrying into his bedroom, I realised he was booking plane tickets.
"We're going to England," he said through clenched teeth.
I stammered, "Are-are you sure that's the best idea?"
He looked furious, "OF COURSE ITS THE BEST IDEA! MY BOYFRIEND IS IN A HOUSE ALL ON HIS OWN WITH A MURDERER, SAPNAP! SO YEAH I AM GOING!"
I blinked a few times and then said, "Buy me a plane ticket too."
Less than three hours later, we were at the airport. We hadn't bothered to pack anything, we just tried to phone George again.
The pair of us assumed that Ezra had been with George for a while and wasn't allowing him to talk to anyone until George got his hands on a phone and called us. Unfortunately, George hasn't phoned us since and we have no idea what Ezra was doing to him.

Dream was freaking out, he was trembling so much that I had to drive. He sat in the seat next to me and he couldn't sit still; constantly picking his nails or bouncing his knees. I told him to calm down but he just ignored me. I don't blame him though, my heart was pounding in my chest and I was struggling to focus on the road.
When we were in the airport, we hurried to a receptionist who directed us to our flight. Anxiously, we waited in our seats for the plane to take off. It did eventually.
I told Dream to take deep breaths and to calm down. With fury growing on his face he yelled, "WHAT?!" A few people turned to stare at us so he lowered his voice to a whisper-shout, "What?! Calm down? Are you serious? George is there with Ezra, last time they were alone together, he put a knife to his throat and shot him! HE COULD BE DEAD FOR ALL WE KNOW!"
Then he lost it, droplets spilled down his red tinted cheeks and dripping onto his lap. He buried his face in his hands in an attempt to hide his tears. I put an arm around him trying to hold back my own tears that were swimming in my eyes. Soon enough, Dream fell asleep on my shoulder and I was glad that he finally calmed down a bit. So, I also relaxed and drifted into a much-needed sleep.

I awoke to a flight attendant announcing our landing. Gently, I shook Dream awake. He grunted and opened an eye. As soon as he took notice of his surroundings, his head snapped up. He got out his phone to see if George had phoned; but he hadn't.
We sped through security and baggage and were out of the airport in just under an hour. It was around 10pm in England and it was drizzling with rain. The sky was dark and cloudy. We got into a taxi and Dream went on his phone to find George's location on the Find My Iphone App. After showing the driver where we wanted to go, he nodded and drove us down a dark twisty road. George lived out of the way of all the bustle and noise of the city, in a more peaceful part of the town in a house tucked away on the outskirts.

Thanking the driver, we got out of the cab and approached George's house. The whole house was dark, not a single light was shining in the windows. I glanced at Dream; he looked nervous and was chewing his bottom lip.
"You ready?" I asked and he nodded, still looking a bit uncertain.
We trailed over to the house, and knocking gently on the door. There was a few minutes silent after we knocked. Then, the door slowly creaked open, to reveal Ezra stood in the doorway.

Eight
His name is Eight. Not really, but that’s what the System decided after a slip of the tongue. One moment, he was stepping out the office door on the way home, and the next waking up on a hillside below a town wall. Oh, and the gate guard drove him off, because he thought Eight was a monster. Life’s tough when you’re trapped in an eight-year old body on another world. The first book focuses on Eight's survival on a dangerous new world. If you're a fan of Gary Paulsen's Hatchet, you'll enjoy it. The story is one of discovery, bushcraft, and finding one's way. Note that, while this is very much LitRPG, progression is slow, and Eight spends much of the first book alone. The second book recounts what happens when Eight and friends head east to the village of Voorhei. Expect a blend of fantasy adventure, ghost story, cozy mystery, and family drama. Books one and two make a complete story, while book 3 has just gotten underway.

God Blade (Hiatus)
Theo, a prodigy of sword and an aspiring adventurer, lives in an RPG-like world where everyone has their own level and skill. However, his is a hardcore RPG world where more than half of its human never gets higher than level one. So who is Theo you ask? Was he a ninja trying to be a leader in his hidden village? Was he trying to be a pirate king? Maybe a teenager summoned from another world? A chosen one of the god? A man whose girlfriend is secretly the demon queen? A cook in a journey to make the greatest dish? Or maybe the reincarnation of an ancient Dark Lord? Well, No. Theo is a man born in that world. An NPC you might say. Not only that, he wasn't even the true hero or the main protagonist of his own world. But he does have to meet all those people during his journey to accomplish his dream. ----- 1 chapter every 2 or 3 days. I don't claim the MC of my story to be not cliched. With so many stories on the internet right now, It's almost impossible if not outright impossible to make an original MC. The best I can do is pick the kind of cliched MC I like the most and give it a twist of my own. English is not my first language, so there will be some mistakes in every chapter. Please notify me in the comment if you found one (Or some). I'm still an inexperienced writer, so feedbacks and reviews are very much appreciated.

J&K
One day, a creature appeared on the beach of a world ruled by the human race. Born from a higher form of intelligence that was spending its immortality crossing between worlds, the creature's mission was simple : live and see. See what for yourself what the world has to offer. But what the world had to offer was sometimes quite overwhelming. ** [participant in the Royal Road Writathon challenge] from chapter 2; be careful, chapter 1 has sexual content. Refer to the tags as the story can be quite dark. The story is a slice of life turned not so wholesome as the protagonist meets mostly freaks while becoming one themself.
