It's been 3 months since Dream was imprisoned in Pandora's box.

2 months since everybody stopped visiting him.

1 month since Nightmare became active once again.

Normally he would be a bit scared because, Nightmare is a great friend and all, but the guy had a terrible temper. Most of his actions are because of Nightmare, the exorcism is made so Nightmare would calm down his erupting rage. But he is the only friend that still checks on him. 

Tommy stopped visiting him.

George never visited.

Sapnap only visit him once and that was because to remind him to never escape or he would kill him.

Ghostbur stopped coming.

Technoblade never came for him. Sure the guy owed him a debt but he really grew a liking for him as a friend.

Even Sam stopped checking up on him.

Dream only had Nightmare left.

Nightmare is his only friend. 

Right now, Dream is playing around with his clock, he used to have a book to write and draw on to keep him entertained. But it had gone missing, must been the invisible rats.

It didn't take long for a familiar figure to appear inside the box, "Nightmare!" Dream cried out as he tried to stand up to properly greet him. "Careful Dream you are still weakened from those raw potatoes they have been feeding you!" Nightmare says rushing towards Dream and pushing him back to a sitting position.

After sitting down to a comfortable position the two friends embraced each other in a tight hug. "I missed you Dreamy" Nightmare says hugging the other tighter. "I missed you more Night" Dream answers back.

"Are you ready for our therapy I've promised?"

"Mhm!" Normally Dream had his own mom to be his therapist, but he never got the chance because she is too busy dotting over Tommy's own problems. But no need to think of that because he had Nightmare. 

"You ready Dream?" Nightmare ask looking at Dream in the eyes. "Ready as I'll ever be!" Dream answers back confidently. "Good, now for the first step of our therapy, tell me are you feeling stressed or anxious?" Dream's smile faded a bit as he nodded his head. "Tell me the truth Dream, why are you feeling that way?" Nightmare pressed on further not breaking eye contact. "I-I i-it's b-because..." The words lost their way into Dream's mouth as he struggled to speak. 

"I know why Dreamy"

"It is because your 'friends' painted you as the villain of their stories"

"Because of your 'friends' abandoning you in your time of need"

"Because of your 'friends' stealing the lands you worked so hard for"

"Because of your own allies abandoning you"

Dream felt like he was being stabbed by the words Nightmare threw at him as he curled on himself as tears formed  at his eyes. But for some reason his own eyes didn't waver away from Nightmare's. "Do you want the pain to go away Dreamy?" he asks once again looking at him in the eyes. Dream nodded, he felt funny, he couldn't move but he paid it no mind as he and Nightmare continued to lock eyes.

"Listen closely to every word I say, say yes if you understand"

"Yes"

"Now Dream close your eyes"

"Yes"

"Your name is not Dream, but Daydream"

"Yes"
