The elegant ballerina dances an elegant routine filled with spins and jumps. Their beauty was comparable to swans.

She was light on her feet, no noise omitting from each step she took. The intricate dance gave the impression of a flowing waterfall, each step and movement of their arms calculated.

With a great leap into the air, the ballerina lands, a sickening crack sounding. Curling up into a fetal position, the ballerina laying in the position unmoving, till moments later, beginning to uncontrollably convulse.

Trails of dark red blood made their way down her body, before her arms fully transformed into a pair of bloodied wings.

With the new pair of wings replacing her arms, the ballerina stands, restarting the routine. Droplets of blood scatter onto the floor with every step and move. It was clear that she could still feel her broken ankle, but any emotion was hidden in the blank, white and spotless mask permanently strapped on her face.

Going into the same leap, the ballerina spreads her tainted red wings, before letting out a shrill cry.

Jolting awake, Nova's skin is covered with a sheen of cold sweat. Breathing heavily, Nova takes her headphones off, throwing them to the side.

Placing a hand onto her face, she wipes the thin layer of sweat off. With weak legs, she stands up off of her bed, and walking over to open the window.

The chilly fall breeze wafts into the room, hitting her face, providing a source of relief. Glancing at the digital clock on her nightstand, it reads an astonishing 3:08 AM.

Running a hand through her hair, she yawns. Throat parched, she makes it her mission to go grab her water bottle from the refrigerator downstairs.

Unlocking the door and stepping out into the silent house, Nova tiptoes down the stairs, making sure to grab ahold of the railings.

With the occasional, unavoidable creaks of the floorboards under her, she makes it to the kitchen. Taking a sharp turn towards the refrigerator, Nova collides into a hard chest.

Nova groans, clutching her nose. A hushed voice whispers, "Oh shit, I'm so sorry."

Nova shakes her head at him,still clutching her nose. "It's fine, Sapnap. What are you doing this late?"

Sapnap pops another gummy bear into his mouth, shrugging. "I couldn't fall asleep and I got hungry so I came down here."

Raising an eyebrow at the pack of gummy bears in Sapnap's hand, Nova lets out a quiet giggle. "Gummy bears? Really?"

"Hey don't talk smack about gummy bears. They slap man. Plus I found them in a random cabinet."

Nova puts her hands up in mock surrender, "Hey I'm just saying, there's apples on the dining table. And, don't tell Dream you ate them, you found his not so secret stash."

Sapnap nods, slightly guilty. "What are you doing here?"

"Oh I just woke up and got thirsty so here I am." Nova shrugs, not wanting to include the recurring nightmare that has plagued her for months.

"Are you going to go back to sleep?" Sapnap inquires as he moves to the side to let Nova open the refrigerator and grab the ice cold, refreshing  bottle of water.

Popping the lid open and gulping the icy goodness down, Nova shakes her head no.

After practically inhaling half of the bottle, she sets it down, deeply breathing. "I went to sleep after we ate that McDonald's food so nah I most likely won't be able to sleep tonight. How bout you?"

Sapnap leans onto the counter beside him,courting down his bag of gummy bears. "I just got here so I'm still adjusting to it. It's going to be tough sleeping tonight. It'll probably be better tomorrow though."

A wicked smile flies onto Nova's face, a delightfully devilish idea being created. "We don't have to sleep, you know? We can sneak out together and find something fun to do."

A playful fire is lit up in Sapnaps chest, a grin surfacing. "Hell yea!"
