Dream woke up with a fuzzy head. It felt like something had settled in his skull, just behind his sockets. He shook his head and walked out of his room. Immediately the fuzzy feeling turned into pressure. He gripped the bridge of his nose. "Ugh..."
"¥0u @/r!&ht?"
"Ugh...just a headache..."
Error paused before resting his hand against Dream's skull. "¥0u'r€ burn!n& up...@r€ ¥0u $!<k?"
"Uh..." Dream tried to shake his head and the pressure increased. "Ugh...actually...maybe..."
"<0u<h. N0₩. !'m t@k!n& <@r€ 0f ¥0u."
"Y-you don't..."
"¥€$ ! D0." Error walked him to the couch, helping him to sit down. He left and Dream could hear clattering in the kitchen.
So sweet...
Dream flushed as the thought crossed his mind. Error had been very sweet to him since he'd arrived...and he seemed to like the company too. He wondered how long it had been since the last time Error had someone around.
Error came back with a bowl of soup. It looked like your typical chicken noodle, but as Dream swallowed the first spoonful, his eyes lit up. "This is amazing! Is there something else in here?"
"€h, n0th!n& mu€h...ju$t m!x€d !n @ €0up/€ d!ff€r€nt $p!<€$."
Dream hadn't downed something that quick since before his brother had turned, when they'd played all day and be starving by the end of it. He flushed as he realized the bowl was almost empty. "Sorry."
"F0r ₩h@t?" Error laughed. "!t'$ @ <0mp/€m€nt."
"It's really good...if everything you cook is this good, you could open your own restaurant!"
Error's face went a light yellow. "0-0h, uh...th@nk$..."
"What? Did I say something wrong?"
"N0...! D0n't th!nk ¥0u <@n." Error smiled over at him. Dream blushed as he put the bowl down. Error grabbed a blanket and draped it over him. "₩@nt th€ tv 0n?"
"No...I'm tired..." Dream didn't know when it had happened, but his head was now laying on Error's shoulder. He smiled as he cuddled closer to the other. "Can you stay with me?"
"¥-¥€@h..." Error seemed stiff, but then he gently wrapped an arm around him. Dream blushed more, his face probably a golden mess at this point, but at this point, he couldn't hide it.
He was...in love.

Bam! Romance and fluff! Enjoy!
