Can You Even Kiss A Ghost? (M!Reader x Dsmp!Wilbur)

Chapter 6: A Simpler Time.

//never thought I'd get this far. Also should I just put chapters in the titles so people don't get lost? Probably should//

The Smell of burning bread was in the house, Wilbur got up from his seat and looked to see if the oven was smoking, he took out the burnt bread. Now the whole house smells of burnt toast, as Wilbur sighed in disappointment, Schlatt laughed his ass off in wilburs head, making him roll his eyes. Another voice was heard in Ghostburs head that sounded like the other wilbur.
“Wilbur?” ghostbur asked as there was a silence. Schlatt raised a brow.
“What are you going on about?”  schlatt sounded annoyed, seeing his face said it all. Ghostbur shrugged his shoulders before throwing away the burnt bread. Seeing that it's burnt to crisp, maybe bread isn't wilburs thing. He rubbed his arm still feeling upset. Why? Why wasn't the feeling going away. It would've left him now but it didn't. Schlatt seemed to notice and sighed.
“Lets go to phil and Techno.” schlatt suggested as wilbur nodded leaving a note for y/n that he went to the other house to do things. He wasn't lying but he didn't want y/n to worry, he already has enough on his plate, why try to make it worse. That's not what Wilbur wanted so he left to phil and technos, seeing that phil was making a dog house, Wilbur went to him.
“Hey phil” he said in his normal happy tone but he still felt awful, the words y/n said about alive wilbur made him feel responsible for actions he did not do.
“Hey ghostbur, how are you?” Philza asked with a smile, Wilbur grunted to keep Schlatt out of it, and Schlatt got the message but rolled his eyes.
“Im feeling sad, normally im not sad but i can't help but be sad.” Wilbur admitted to Phil, making the old man stop building with a worried look. Wilbur was holding his chest where his  “heart” was supposed to be but sense it doesn't work, does he really have a heart? Philza looked at ghostbur seeing that he was crying blue, he couldn't help but feel bad for the ghost.
“Why are you sad ghostbur?” philz questioned making wilbur wince a bit. He seemed like a hurt puppy.
“Y/N had a trigger from cleaning the glass i dropped then it led him go into a panicked state, he tried calming down but i think i made it worse by just being me and he yelled out all his feelings to me and schlatt making us both speechless. I know it wasn't towards me but to alive wilbur but i can't help but feel as if it's my fault as well. “ wilbur started to shake thinking back to the one sided argument. Philza knew why y/n blew out liked that, breaking glass was a trigger for his ptsd from schlatt. Philza sighed as he moved his head to the left as a way to tell Wilbur to walk with him. As they took their walk philza looked at the partly cloudy sky seeing snow fall.
“Well, you are wilburs ghost so both of you are connected someway, maybe you're feeling wilburs emotions at the moment because maybe something happened that you did to make wilbur listen as well and schlatts reaction was necessary, he did hurt y/n. '' Philza said putting his arms in his sleeves as they walked.
“Look I'm not good at apologies, I would do it but would it fix anything I did to them? No. I made them break themselves to death, I'm taking responsibility but I'm not apologizing to someone who I know won't accept it because of the things I did.” Schlatt came out to say before Wilbur shook, looking annoyed at Schlatt for butting in. philza chuckled.
“That's the thing, y/n is a very forgiving person, they aren't really someone to hold grudges but someone like you did that to him, so now here we are.” Philza was referring to schlatt, wilbur nodded in agreement as schlatt stuck out his tongue, making wilbur do it however he shaked in time before schlatt did it. As they kept walking, Wilbur felt a faint heart beat in his chest. It made him come to a stop, making philza turn around looking at the confused ghost. His heartbeat thumbed again but slower.
“Philz.. My heart is thumping.” Wilbur looked at Philza looking afraid, philzas eyes widened as he pulled out the diamond sword.
“Are you sure?” Phil asked as Wilbur started coughing, seeing black Oz come out his mouth. Schlatt exited out wilburs body confused as he was gaining his own ghost body.
“What the fuck!? No! Please let me go back to the spirit world. I don't want to come back!” schlatt looked up at the sky complaining. Wilbur fell on the snow as he kept coughing, the thump of his heart got louder but they were at a slow pace. Philza walked over to the hurting ghost, the black oz was slowly but surely lighting as the heart thumped in a faster pace then before but still really slow. Philza took out his totum on undying and gave it to the hurting ghost.
“What was the last thing you said to me in the button room.” philza asked, he sounded hurt because now he has to repeat this process again. Wilburs breathes where shaking, the harsh cold air hitting his now working lungs made him scared even more. He clutched the totum really tightly as he looked at Phil with a tired but calm face.
“Kill me phil, kill me, kilza. Please.” Wilbur said, coughing before Phil stabbed him again, looking away from the sight of seeing his son die again in his arms. The totum exploded of confidence showing the man. Not the ghost but the man unharmed and asleep from the pain. Schlatt looked at the now alive wilbur.
“Holy fuck it worked and you didnt even use the book i gave to dream.”
“What?” philza looked at schlatt who had a shit eating grin. He crossed his arms
“Ill explain more later but lets get that stupid idiot inside before he dies of frost bite.” he chuckled as philza carrys wilbur inside technos house, once they got in, phil started the fire to warm wilbur up, His hair was more of that golden brown with white strands, must have the effects of coming alive again, His sweater and pants where the same but renew and not bloody and gross. His skin seemed more pale but that's from the lack of sunlight. Philza looked at Wilbur who was alive in front of him, breathing and his heart beating. This brought tears to the old man. His son is ok again.  Someone knocked on the door, making Philza clean up his eyes and open the door to see y/n, he appeared to have been crying earlier.
“I-is wilbur in here? He said he was coming over here and I felt bad because I yelled at him and i didnt mean to.” y/n started to tear up again before philza put him in a hug, y/n didn't know how to react but hugged back cautiously. Philza chuckled as he let him in and closed the door, he let y/n go from the hug, seeing wilbur on the floor near the fireplace, y/ns eyes seem to have widened with happiness. He turned around to look at philza.
“You brought him back? How?” y/n looked back at wilbur, seeing his chest rise up and down, breathing steady and calm. y/n sat down next to wilbur putting his head on his lap, combing out his fluffy soft hair, it didn't feel rough or oily, y/n couldn't help but chuckle as tears streamed down his face.
“He may have some side effects like idk, his ability to fly or some ghost shit sense phil didn't read the book, but yeah he's alive. “ schatt said nonchalantly making y/n jump a bit seeing schlatt now have his own ghost body. y/n's face changed to a pissed off one making schlatt gulp and go behind phil. Philza looked at y/n, y/n calmed down before looking back at wilbur. He was happy he is alive but now he has to face him again. Tears came back feeling a hard hit on his heart.
“This isn't ghostbur, once you yell at him he might end things. That's what you wanted though right?” The voice taunted in y/ns head, making him shake his head. Philza placed a hand on y/n shoulder to calm him down.
“Voices right?” phil asked, y/n nodded as phil handed y/n a crystal, he tied the necklace around y/n neck, y/n head felt better but the voice was now just small whispers he can ignore, y/n looked at the crystal and it was a friendship emerald that techno gave to philza. y/n looked at him wanting to say something.
“No no keep it, I have two more. Plus you need it, it helps a lot, i should give one to ranboo now that i think about it.” Phil said putting his hand to his chin, he was thinking about it however a groan came from wilbur. y/n looked down at the tired man.
“What the bloody- y/n…?” Wilbur was shocked, he reached to touch y/ns face but y/n moved his head, he was still upset with him. He did die in front of him not even a year ago. 
“I'm sorry… for everything, really..” Wilbur said feeling guilty, y/n didn't believe him but he knew Wilbur ment some of the things y/n said to him.
“Did ghostbur tell you?” Wilbur looked at y/n from the question. He gulped.
“No actually… i heard.. And i.. I have nothing to say for myself or actions. Like you said to me, my actions speak more than my words hah..” wilbur chuckled before it died down to him looking visibly upset at y/n. y/ns eyes looked at wilbur with sorrow and mixed emotions. He sighed pressing his head against wilburs.
“I don't forgive you for everything. You hurt me but.. I forgive you.. Don't make me regret this.. I've already started to feel my life flash before me.” y/n said feeling tears flow, wilbur stayed quiet, listening for y/n to say more but there was nothing to be said. He said his piece in the one stand fight with him and ghostbur, he didn't need to say more. Wilbur knew that their relationship was on a thin line about to snap at any moment but both them knew if they broke up it wasn't gonna be a good sight, not only that but they've been through so much that neither of them want to leave each other's sides. Lovers or friendship wise, they didn't want to be separated. Wilbur got off to hug y/n, he held him close and he wasn't planning on letting go. They kinda forgot schlatt and phil were still there but both knew it was ok for them to do that. They both needed time to talk. Phil exited the room along with schlatt so they could talk about what he meant about the book. y/n held on the wilbur with the same strength as they sat there for god who knew how long.
“Im sorry. I'm sorry i lost my mind, i'm sorry for leaving you with that annoying prick. I didn't think he would, I didn't think he would.” Wilbur felt tears threaten his eyes to fall down his face but he held them in as he hugged y/n tighter but not enough to harm him. y/n shushed wilbur as he rubbed his back, he was already crying, he knew wilbur was going to start this. y/n took a deep breath as he kept his head on his shoulder and hummed a small tune to calm wilbur down.
“I know I made it seem I didn't care but you know I asked techno to go save you, I guess it didn't go as planned because of quackity… he did drop you off at erets didn't he..?” Wilbur asking for reassurance, that's what puzzled y/n, he didn't remember getting saved. He paused for a moment, the blinding of light flashed him.
“Y/N! Wake up! oh god.. what did he do to you?” y/n fluttered open his eyes seeing eret and techno, but it was blurry his vision didn't focus until he only saw eret, who had a happy smile on his face.
“Thank you techno.. Have fun in the blast.” eret waved off before lifting up y/n as techno jumped out the building, y/n groaned from the open wound on his head.
“Don't worry… you're safe now.. Your safe” eret said as they get to the holy land. y/n looked over at l'auberge. “Wilbur… wilbur..” y/n called out looking around as eret looked worried. “His.. he's not here y/n. '' Eret sadly wrapped a bandage on y/n head, y/n eyes looked shocked, as everything came back to him as he cried.
“No.. no. i need to get back to him, and tommy, tubbo.. Nikki.. And fundy..” y/n crawled away from eret as she tried stopping y/n from going back.
“If you do that they'll kill you! L’manberg is gonna go off any second now and techno is planning something! You want to risk your life on something that you won't fix?” eret was concerned, y/n looked at the sorrowful king and looked at l’manberg.
“This is my unfinished planning with wilbur. It started with him and Tommy and it will finish with Tommy and Wilbur and I will be there to see it come to it's fall.” y/n looked deep in the queens empty eyes as he smiled before giving y/n a healing potion. “Then so be it.” eret said with a smile lending a hand for y/n to grab. The flash ended as y/n blinked and took everything in again. “y/n..?” Wilbur pleaded, y/n hummed in acknowledgement, he nodded before holding on to Wilbur again, feeling his energy give out.
“Eret.. I remember eret getting me and techno being there… mostly eret..” Y/N stated as wilbur nodded.
“Don't you remember… I was there Wilbur, once eret saved me he gave me a healing potion, as soon as the TNT went off I flew in for that moment only to fall back on a slime block that saved me from losing a life but it launched me in the ground hard. I blacked out… once i came back i went to help nikki and then find you.. Your own father… you made him kill you...i should be mad at phil for stabbing you but i know it wasn't his fault, because it was your choice… you gave up because your world was gone, you didn't even think about me or anyone else because you played a villains role in the act of that moment.” y/n squeezed wilburs sweater harshly only to let it go and to look wilbur in the eyes, his eyes were filled with sorrow and guilt, y/n cupped wilburs face and made him look up at him.
“You basically told everyone that you didnt care.. You made Nikki believe you left her, She's been outcast and left to be a reservation to herself because nobody listens to her and outshines her… Everyone listened to her when you were there because you were her confidence and now... now it's just me and her against everyone because of the actions YOU created…” Y/N tensely said looking at wilbur who gulped as he held onto y/ns arms softly.
“...It's extremely hard to stay mad at you but what you did to me, not just me but to nikki, fundy and phil! Your family… didn't you care about us?” y/n quivered feeling cold, but he didn't mind as he let go of wilburs face and held himself. Wilbur wasn't going to lie, he missed y/ns touch as well however he knew this was going to be difficult. He hugged y/n, he struggled to get out of wilburs grasp, he didn't want to be touched but accepted it because he really needed it.
Philza and Schlatt came back to see both y/n and wilbur sleeping in each other's embrace  next to the now burnt out fire place. Philza chuckled as he took a picture. Schlatt smiled as he felt tired and slept in a box. Philza was also beat and went upstairs to sleep. Techno wasn't gonna be home till late. Wilbur opened his eyes seeing Schlatt come back and seeing y/n in his arms, he took a deep breath and looked at the fire pit, his heartbeat seemed to be loud. How was he gonna face everyone now..?
     Why can't they Be back in the simpler times...
