I wanna give you the world || DNN

Chapter 6 || Hostage

I leaned back in the chair, me and Sapnap were shooting each other absolute death stares.
"Ahem, do you want another?" Dream said awkwardly

"Yes please they're amazing thank you" my eyes never left Sapnap's

"..you Sapnap?"
"No, im good thank you"

"Okayy.." Dream stood up and walked back to the front to order.

"Why are you wearing Dreams shirt?" Sapnap snapped
"Coffee spill. Why have you been hiding all this?" I spat back.
"Didn't want you worrying. How'd you spill it you never even got coffee."
"Worker tripped. I wouldn't worry- you know that, why didn't you tell me?"
"It would be dangerous if you knew everything. Who."
"It was an accident they cleaned me up afterwards. Who else do you have after you?"
"Who"  now was not the time for him to kill a worker

Before we could continue interrogating each other the doors swung open. Guards, Royal guards. My eyes shot to Dream as he calmly sneaked back to me and Sapnap (he also gave me the wonderful pastry but I held onto it wanting to save it)

"Has anyone seen the prince." A person from the back of the line came in front leading the rest, they had a strong voice sending shivers and fear through my body. They all had the occasional silver armor but this one had a shining blue one, almost glowing- wait no- it was glowing.

"Who are you?" A faint voice in the cafe said

They took off their helmet, "You shall know me as Puffy, captain of the royal guards, now answer me have any of you seen the prince." She takes out a price of yellowish paper that has black ink painted on it showing an almost exact replica of my face. Fuck.

"100 Diadem." [currency] She said. I looked around and the room when customers started bustling with shouts and people pointing around looking for me. Well now I'm seriously fucked.

People all around us were overjoyed. 'Diadem? Have you ever even had 1 Diadem in your possession?' 'What's that?' 'Only one Diadem is more than 10k crowns' 'Do you know how long we'd last with only one Diadem?' 'Our upper class lives would be secured!'

"Down." Dream said to me and I ducked down and behind him, his tall intimidating figure covering me and nobody looked this way twice. Sapnap took off his over coat and gave it to me, looking around at the mess of people. Puffy was trying to get things in order individually asking people where they saw me last and what I was wearing last.

Something caught my eye behind the counter, it was Fundy, he was waving us over, I got up against Dream and tugged on his sleeve "What is it?" he turned to me holding my arms so nobody would be able to see my face. I tilted my head towards Fundy and he glanced over and bit his lip, thinking if it would be worth it to risk it. "Ok. Sapnap grab our stuff please, George stay with me don't look up."

Before I could say ok he pulled me to the side of him and started walking, his arm was wrapped around me holding my right arm as if someone was going to pull me away at any second. It was all going good and we were turning around behind the counter when I heard Puffy "George." I felt shivers go down my neck which left a unpleasant fuzzy feeling. I didn't turn around, the whole room went dead silent. I could just feel all the eyes on me. Next to me Dream glanced down at me but I didn't move, my eyes staring straight ahead of me and my lip was quivering from biting it.

"Do you trust me?" he whispered "What?" I choked out barley "Do you, trust me?" He said more sternly. I didnt say anything for a while, did I really trust him? I barley know him. To be honest the safer option would be to go back. I shouldn't trust him. "I trust you." But then again he's pretty damn hot

He leaned down and picked up his pant leg, of course, bringing up a knife almost the size as his hand, super sharp. He yanked me around facing puffy and put the knife to my throat.

I take it all back, I'd rather be stuck inside o or my room for the rest of my years. The guards behind puffy quickly pulled out their swords but Dream pulls the knife closer to my throat but still sending a warning. They stare at each other for a while i feel the thick tension in between them. Puffy raises her hand to the side signaling the other guards to put their swords away, and they do.

He moves the knife away from throat and I turn my head around to face him, he's smirking and Sapnap has already went through the doors, I'm glad they didn't see him. He dashes towards the back door dragging me with him. He makes sure to visible go right before turning out of vision towards the forest behind the building and jumping into a bush where Sapnap wasn't more than 3 feet away from.

The door slams open and the guards go right as they had saw. When they reached out of sight I let out a breath I didn't know I was holding in, bad habit.

"Did I actually hurt you?" Dream grabs my jaw and lifts my chin up, of course he didn't hurt me, the blade didn't come into contact with my neck. But my face felt hotter as his other hand gently caressed my throat where the cut would have been.

"Did you?" Sapnap grabbed my face making me face him now while Dreams hand that was previously on my throat came down resting on my collar bone. Sapnap's eyes came up from my neck and our eyes met, faces inches apart. Shit. Is it bad I find this extremely hot?

Of course this was interrupted by the sound of a door opening, it was Fundy he peeked his head out to see the guards long gone, and we all shot up and faced him. "Fundy!" I said getting out the bush, "oh god, I'm glad you guys are safe"

"Mhm" I stuff my face with the chocolate croissant before it becomes cold and stale.
