Love in War

Chapter 17

Y/N POV

"George! Be careful!" Dream yells from underneath me.

The boys had already carried me halfway home. The word luxurious was thrown out the window once they discussed how they were going to carry me. Dream at the feet, Sapnap and George on the sides, and Punz by my head. It was better than trying to walk. Every time I tried it was very painful and it just made me mad at myself for not being able to walk.

"Boys! Just get me home before sunrise!"

They all groan and start trucking along again. They get to the gate and it is slightly open from when I opened it before. Sapnap leaves my side and tries to push the gate open. He is successful and the boys take me inside the walls.

"Where's your room?" Sapnap whispers.

"Dream knows, why doesn't he lead you there?"

I hear the groan come from my feet so I know that I pissed him off with that remark. He finds the building and he steps on the pressure plates. He makes sure the doors don't slam on my body and helps the boys through.

"Punz, the stairs up ahead."

"Got it!" he says a little too loudly.

I hear the sound of footsteps coming down the stairs.

"Guys stand me up," I whisper.

They do as I say and stand me up. They let go and I wobble a bit before keeping balance. There is no pain that shoots through me so I take the opportunity to wait for the person. The person stops at the bottom.

"Y/N? Where have you been?" Will asks.

He must have found the milk and drank it so he is now visible. He runs over and hugs me. His arm goes around the stab wound and I hiss in pain. He pulls back immediately.

"What happened?!"

I forgot about a story, "I went to the training area after the meeting and I accidentally fell."

"Why didn't you try to ask for help?"

"I didn't want you to think I was stupid."

"Y/N, I never think you're stupid what are you talking about?"

"Remember the time I fell off the swing at home?"

He smiles and laughs, "You were stupid back then, but now you are stronger if I remember correctly.

I smile and take a step... and fall. Will catches me.

"I'll help you up," He picks me up and starts running up the stairs.

He takes me to my room and lays me down on my bed. He puts the blanket over me.

"Thanks Will," I say as he steps away from my bed.

"No problem, I miss taking care of my little sister."

He leaves after that and I start to worry. The boys were just downstairs. They watched the entire scene play out and there is a possibility that they are still there. I try to sit up but fail due to the pain. There is no way I am going to be able to.

Sapnap POV

We knew we had to leave right after he took her up the stairs. Dream ushered us out and we booked it towards the gate.

"Can't we take this as an opportunity to set some traps?"

"To early George," Dream says.

"Can we just get home? I want to sleep!"
