Helium - A Dreamnotfound Fanfic

Subject Log #17: A Smooth Recovery

"Hi Bad." Eret smiled and walked towards the printer.

Bad smiled. "Hi. How are you?" 

Eret shrugged. "Just the usual, I guess. How have you been?" Eret glanced at Bad.

Bad felt a surge of annoyance. He shrugged it off. "I'm...just great, thanks...person."

Eret chuckled and raised an eyebrow. "Person? Do I not have a name to you anymore?"

Bad smiled and laughed softly. "No...well anyways I have to go." Bad quickly rushed out of the copy room, leaving behind a confused Eret.

Skeppy slowly flipped through the pages of his outdated geography textbook. 

"Goodness gracious. This is annoying." 

Skeppy spun around in his chair to look at Bad. "What, having to put up a front constantly so you can do whatever your demon plans are?"

Bad scoffed. "Don't test me, diamond boy."

"Stop calling me that," Skeppy snapped back.

Bad cracked his neck and stretched his arms out. He sighed and let the darkness take over his skin. 

Halo sighed in relief as he shook himself out. "Ugh, his body is so uncomfortable to be in."

Skeppy scowled. "Shut your fucking mouth, Halo. I'm still getting over Bad being gone."

"Oh, so sad. Do you miss your little boyfwend? Hm?" Halo smirked and cackled. 

Skeppy clenched his jaw. "I miss him, yes. Because he was the only one who brought me happiness. He was so sweet and beautiful and loving, and I will never forget him."

Halo rolled his eyes. He looked back at Skeppy, opening his mouth to say something, but paused. He choked on his words, grabbing at his throat and falling to the ground abruptly.

Skeppy watched in shock as the demon gasped for air on the ground. 

"I- agh- ack-" 

Skeppy stared at the demon, slowly collapsing to the floor, his body now limp.

"What-" Skeppy got up and knelt to the ground, hesitatingly poking at Halo. 

Two coughs sounded from the body. Skeppy scooted back a bit and watched as the body pushed itself up. 

Skeppy stared at Bad's eyes. "Halo?"

"Skeppy?" Bad asked.

Skeppy dropped his jaw and looked at Bad's appearance, how it would normally be.

Skeppy quickly thought of something. "What's your nickname for me?"

"What? Skeppy you-" he coughed hoarsely, "-you muffin what are you talking about-"

Skeppy laughed in shock. "Um- uh- fuck!"

"HEY WATCH YOUR LANGUAGE YOUNG MAN!" Bad threw his shoe at Skeppy. 

Skeppy dodged it and continued staring at Bad, jaw still dropped in disbelief. 

"Skeppy why are you staring at me like that-"

"BAD! BAD BAD OH GOD HOLY CRAP BAD I MISSED YOU I MISSED YOU I LOVE YOU SO MUCH-" Skeppy lunged forwards and tackled Bad to the ground, hugging him tightly and laughing, feeling immense emotions.

Bad laughed and coughed. "Ouch...Skeppy too tight-"

Skeppy pulled back at and looked at Bad, sobbing. "I don't care I have you here and I'm not fucking leaving you again-"

Bad smiled and squeezed the diamond boy tight. "Skeppy..."

Skeppy pulled out of the hug gazed at Bad. 

Bad felt tears fall from his eyes. "I miss you too...but I can't stay for too long."

Skeppy's smile dropped. "W-What?"

"No! Dangit." Dream sighed in disappointment as he stared at the end game screen. He turned his phone off and tossed it away.

Dream looked around the room with a deadpan face and sighed in boredom. He picked up his phone again and scrolled through his contacts. 

Odd...why is there only Fundy, Skeppy, Bad, Wilbur, and Niki?

Dream dug through his messages. "Zero texts or conversations?"

Dream frowned and looked at the date on his phone. "It's been a week. I wonder if I could just leave now? I was better after a day anyway."

Dream looked up at the door. He pushed his phone into his pocket and slowly got up, opening the door of the medical room and looking out into the hallway. He walked out and closed the door behind him, walking towards his dorm. 

He sighed as he reached for his keycard and tapped it onto the reader. He stepped into his dorm and turned locked his door, turning around to see the room empty. 

Dream remembered and laughed. "It's okay, it's just me, Dream. You can show Tommy and Tubbo now George."

Dream waited as the silence continued. "George? Tommy? Tubbo?" Dream nervously chuckled and walked around his room, checking the bathroom and kitchen. 

Dream sat on his bed and looked at the pull-out couch; sheets and blankets messy and tangled. He got up and reached his hand out, expecting to touch an invisible person. 

"What the hell?!" Dream panicked and scanned the room. "WHERE ARE THEY?!"

Dream scoured his room frantically, throwing pillows onto the ground and running his hands through his hair. 

He spotted something glinting on the ground. He picked it up and stared at the white-rimmed sunglasses. 

"Shit."
