The School Rooftop- Wilbur x Dream

There was a boy.

He met him every day on the rooftop.

They were both there for the same reason, even if neither of them admitted it.

"Hey Dream, how's life?" The boy called, walking towards Clay.

"Not much, just homework. You?"

"Ah, I'm just enjoying some fresh air."

They both stared at each other, hoping the other would call them out.

"Well, it's good to see you Wilbur."

"Of course, it's good to see you too."

The confessions hung on Dream's lips.

'You should know my real name'

'I love you'

'I want to die'

"Hey Dream?"

"Yeah Wilbur?"

"Do you ever wonder what happens to the dead?"

Dream shot a glance at Wilbur. "What do you mean?"

"I mean, what happens after death? How does it feel?"

"I guess.... Maybe we're stuck in limbo. Like, stuck between dead and alive...it sounds painful. I don't know if I'd like that."

"I think death is like a way to go home." Wilbur smiles sheepishly, playing with his hair a bit. "My dad always says that when we die we go to paradise, a place far away where we can join all of our loved ones and be happy, always happy and never sad." His arms slightly spread out, and for a moment Dream can see Wilbur as an Angel stuck on earth. His idea sounds peaceful, although it made Dream worry about what has happened in Wilbur's life.

"Maybe."

"Maybe. Anyways, I have to go if I'm gonna get home in time."

"Alright. Just don't do anything I wouldn't do, okay?" Dream asks.

"Of course." Wilbur gave him a smile, and then walked down the stairs.

The next day, Dream didn't see Wilbur at all.

When he was in fifth period, people were chatting about the police and ambulance that showed up shortly after lunch. The thought made Dream shiver a bit, but he kept his cool.

People were called to the principal's office for the next couple of minutes, but Dream wasn't. Not that it bothered him. He would see Wilbur after school.

An announcement rang over the speakers: school would end early. Fine by Dream. He'd see Wilbur sooner that way.

After everyone had gathered up their stuff, Dream walked up to the roof, looking around.

But Wilbur wasn't there.
