Wilbur's Back

Philza's POV

"Dream?" I asked slightly confused.

"Yes..." He was silent and seemed ashamed.

"What do you mean?" I asked confused "Does it sound like him, or talk like him or something?"

"Both" Ranboo concluded, "It's not really him, but...it's just...unnerving"

An angry frown covered my face "I swear if I ever get my hands on dream" I glared off at no one in particular. Dream had done too much to my children.

He had tried to kill both Tommy and Tubbo, he manipulated them both and he had manipulated Wilbur as well. Now he was doing this to Ranboo, whether it was really him or not just the thought of it made me angry.

Ranboo looked slightly concerned so I just sighed and looked away trying to calm myself down.

"All I'm saying is that he's lucky he's in prison..."

"Yeah..." Ranboo added awkwardly I realized I had made this more uncomfortable for him and quickly apologized.

"Oh it's fine Phil, you have the right to be upset." He flinched again his head was hurting him.

I felt awful, I didn't know what to do "I wish I knew how to help...I'm sorry I can't"

Ranboo smiled slightly "It's okay, don't be." He said softly

"Still," was all I responded with. I sat by him for awhile I brought up Techno and how he heard voices as well.

I stated maybe they could talk to one another about it but both me and Ranboo seemed to agree that it was probably a bad idea. Techno hardly tells me about personal issues himself, and I know he likes Ranboo but he's even less likely to tell him anything that personal.

"How about you Phil?" Ranboo asked curiously. "I know you were lying when you said you were okay earlier, you looked like you'd been crying...are you okay?"

'Was I okay?' No, absolutely not. But I decided that telling Ranboo would only make him more stressed so I nodded my head.

"I'm fine Ranboo really. I just..had a nightmare to be honest"

"Oh" Ranboo responded not completely convinced but somewhat satisfied "...about Wilbur again?" He asked cautiously.

I was silent then nodded silently, "That's all I dream about anymore. Makes it really hard to sleep"

"I can imagine" Ranboo responded "You know I always talk to you about how I'm doing, but you can talk to me whenever if need be."

I nodded "I know, thank you Ranboo" I smiled at him and he returned it with a friendly smile.

~Time Skip to later that day~

After we ate, Ranboo had told me bye, he and Tubbo had something planned today but me and him did decide to go mining tonight. I knew it was likely just something to distract both of us but I still happily agreed to go.

I considered Ranboo one of my own and he was by far the easiest to talk to. He was understanding and quite and I knew it wouldn't end up being repeated rather on accident or on purpose.

While at home I walked into my room and noticed a picture knocked off my dresser I ran over to it brushing the glass away and picking up the photo. It was of me and Will, it was taken not long before the L'manburg rebellion. He was so happy, so confident, so...I felt tears again.

God...not again. I put the picture back in my dresser and sighed. I cleaned up the glass and went into my kitchen and decided to just sit and wait. I had nothing else better to do.
