SNF where George and sapnap are having lighthearted banter and they’ve always been able to reconcile when they do get serious. With sapnap being the one to run back and asks George for forgiveness and George pretending to still be mad but always welcoming him back with cuddles and kisses. But then one day their bickering spirals into something more heated where George says something that cuts DEEP, like to the point where both he and sapnap is just kinda stunned by what he just said. Sapnap doesn’t even respond he just walks away stone faced out of the house and slamming the door.
George is still shocked at what he said, but he’s mad cause of the lingering adrenaline of the fight so he doesn’t even attempt to go after sap and doesn’t look back when he walks back to his room. And he knows that they’re going to come back together and everything is fine and dandy.
Hours pass by and then a day and then a week and sapnap is just completely avoiding George. If he’s eating breakfast and George walks in, he’ll leave the table. If he’s streaming with friends and george joins the call, he’ll make up an excuse to go. During regular movie nights with dream, he wouldn’t come down. And it starts to eat at George’s heart because it feels like the rift is too big and one day when he walks past saps room he just breaks down and cries.
He starts apologizing and going on and on about how sap deserves better and how he’s taken sap for granted. Sap just listens quietly and doesn’t make a move until George starts saying that he doesn’t deserve love and that he’ll break up with sapnap if it’ll make him happy— at that sapnap rips the door open and just hugs George quietly until all of his sobbing calms down. He forgives him and tells George that he does love him and that he doesn’t want to break up, just that what he did was shitty and they both talk through it and promise each other that they’ll never let their arguments get that bad ever again
lkdsjfld yes omg yes. and of course george is the one to push too far finally because We Know he knows how to find the weak spots in someone, that he pushes and needles until they’re at their breaking point. and dating sapnap, of course he can do that - he can do it without even thinking, he KNOWS what gets under his skin. maybe he didn’t even realize at first just How Bad it was until sapnap stops and then his own words register in his head. but it’s too late then because sapnap’s leaving and even though he feels awful, and still mad, he has aaaaaaall the confidence that sapnap will come back to him because that’s what happens! it’s what always happens! they bicker, they get mad, they get over it.
but then they DON’T this time. and george!! doesn’t know what to do about that because he’s never had to BE the one to be the bigger person because he knows how sapnap is and sapnap knows how he is. sapnap loves him and is so so open about that whereas yeah he’s a little more closed off because he shows it in his own way - a way sapnap is familiar with. and because sapnap is so open, he’s always the one who comes back so even though george feels the blame he doesn’t expect this time to be any different but it IS. sapnap’s avoiding him and maybe it’s because whatever the comment was, whatever the fight was about, really really got under his skin and sapnap thought about how he’s always the one to come crawling back. maybe george doesn’t because he doesn’t want to (insecure sapnap my love,,,). so that’s also why he’s pulling away because he loves george so much but this One Time where george really screwed up he couldn’t even acknowledge it and that hurts.
which of course breaks george, and you wrote it so wonderfully i can’t even expand on that on my own because ahhhhhhhh. i love when george cries, i can’t help it. when he’s finally just pushed to that brink that he can’t do anything BUT cry. and he feels so bad!!! but of course it’s okay because he loves sapnap and sapnap loves him and they talk it out and they cuddle and they kiss, and then they freak dream out for a week because they don’t even BICKER terrified of going too far again so they’re sickly sweet to each other and dream is like. who are you. where are my best friends. lol. thank youuuu!! i loved this <3
