George

Sometimes he'd find himself thinking back to his life before all the crazy had arrived. He'd had a normal life, a family, friends, a fiancee, a job. Everything he'd wanted to have.

But then things changed and shit happened, and he ended up living in a little pink house with a mass murder and a compulsive tea maker. The vampire and the ghost. And somehow, and he wasn't entirely sure how, but he was happy with it.

He was happy with the little dysfunctional type family he'd found with Mitchell and Annie. Because that's what they were in a sense. A family. Friends from the start, but friends always seem to turn into family eventually.

...

When he'd first met Mitchell, tension was always in the air. There was always that slight hint of a storm brewing beneath the surface. Who were they kidding! A vampire and werewolf couldn't live together! Couldn't be friends! It defied all logic.

Yet somehow they managed it. Somehow they became best friends, somehow they got through life. Not always smoothly or without faults. But they lived and had a life and were, in some way, normal. George found a friend in Mitchell, and Mitchell found the same in George. When they were both at the edge of destruction, or ready to jump into a void that they couldn't escape, they'd found each other. They'd saved each other, and you can't walk away from something like that without forming some kind of friendship.

But there was always a question lingering around them, taking the form of 'And then what?' Because what were the chances of them carrying on like that forever? George would die, Mitchell wouldn't, and then he'd be alone again. And life was hard enough for him with a friend, how would he be without one again?

...

Not that they got that far, because then they met Annie.

Annie the friendly ghost.

Well maybe she wasn't all that friendly, after all, she did try to scare them away. For a while, he really did dislike her, not hate, but dislike. All she did was make tea! So much tea, he honestly thought he'd hate the stuff by the time she found her door. But then her door came, and he couldn't bare see her go, he couldn't let her go. Because he loved her like he loved Mitchell, he loved the way she made tea even if she couldn't drink it. She was part of the little dysfunctional family they'd built for themselves. She was the heart of it. And he didn't want her to walk through that door, because then she'd be gone forever, or until he died as well.

But she didn't go through her door, she stayed. For them. And they fought for her, they fought to get her back when they lost her. George may have held a disliking to her at the beginning, but he loved her in the end. She was part of his family, and family isn't always the easiest thing to find.

As long as Annie was there, Mitchell wouldn't be alone. Even after he was dead and gone. So on they went, just the three of them. Living by the 'and what next?' rule, and they were happy.

...

People come into you life when you don't expect them too, normally in a way that makes you think you don't need them.

That was Nina. His Nina.

She came into his life, and try as he might, he just couldn't get her out of it. And he tried so hard, because he didn't want to see her suffer how he had. Not that he counted in the fact that he'd fallen in love with her at some point. You never can get rid of the people you love. Not that George would have wanted too, not in the end. Things got screwed up in the middle and everything turned to shit for them both. And for a moment, just one single moment, he thought that maybe, just maybe they weren't meant to be. That it was a stupid thought.

But things always seem to have a way of righting themselves, and Nina came back to him. And this time she stayed, and refused to leave. Because she loved him, and he loved her, and suddenly the dysfunctional family of three was a family of four on Barry Island. But George wouldn't have changed that for the world. He was happy, even when he thought he couldn't be. He was.

A/N- And that is part 1, George and his thoughts on the others and their lives together.

Thoughts/reviews would be loved. Thank you!
