Cold (Ghost!Dream)

Chapter 8

so like, since ghlatt and puffy divorced, puffy is hjuengaged to niki lol. nothing in the book is like the actual timeline in the real rp.

also, since puffy and niki are engaged, why not have niki have motherly habits with tubbo and drem?

and also, there were a few comments regarding c!jshlatt being transphobic against c!fundy. thats also in this book, but after finding out that wilbur basically forgot about fundy as a son, ghlatt pitied him and now supports him. along with the thought that dream belongs with fundy more than wilbur.

also hi, i'm back to updating this book-
i had to reread my own book to remember the plot ;; welp, enjoy!

"D-Dream?!"
Niki yelled, a loud sound of a pan dropping followed after. "What is.... what is going on??" The woman panicked, bending down to
clean up the mess of pastries. Dré shyly waved, giving her a soft smile. Ghostbur steps in, "Hey Niki! We're just dropping in, I'm sure the others will fill you in! Also, can we get two chocolate pastries and cups of hot choco? Thank you!" Ghostbur drags Drè away from the counter and sitting at one of the tables, leaving the rest with Niki.

Niki stares at Tommy, while he shrugs. "Oh dear, come into the kitchen." She leads the men into the back. "So, tell me why Dream looks so pale? And why he has black eyes, icicles stuck on to him, and he has his mask off?" She glared at them as she got some already baked chocolate pastries out.

"Erm, well, I kinda thought you'd know by his appearance." said Tommy, scratching his nape. "He's a ghost, Niki..." The woman froze, "A ghost? Like Wil?" She turned her head towards Tommy, "How did he die?"

"That... we're not sure." Techno answered. "When Wilbur found him and brought him to our house, he had no recollection of us. He couldn't speak as well." He explained. "Oh, and..." He reaches into his bag, grabbing the book that Dré wrote in. "He wrote the things that he does remember in here." Flipping to the page, Techno hands it to Niki.

She reads through the list of things. "I honestly think he froze to death. I mean, it explains the icicles and how he practically make ice with his own hands." "How do you know that??" Quackity asked. "Well, I saw him fixing his mask with putting ice on the cracks while when we first met."

Tommy stared at Fundy but shook his head, "Well, there's your answer. That's how he died." The blonde said, shrugging. Niki sighed, looking down at the plates of chocolate pastries and cups of hot chocolate.

Niki looks at Tubbo - who looked a bit down - and pulls him in for a hug. "Hey honey, you doing okay?" Tubbo hugs her back, "M' fine. Just worried for my big bro." The woman smiled as they pull away from each other. Sbr turns around towards the kitchen counter.

"What are you guys going to do now?" She picks the plates up, Tommy helping with the hot chocolate. "We were planning on letting Dré meet everyone. We were going to meet Puffy but Wil wanted to show Dré your cafe." explained the blonde. "What about... you know, his best friends?" Quackity interrupts, "Erm... I don't think we should show him to George and Sapnap..." Tommy looked at Quackity. "Oh, yeah, George and Sapnap seemed like they were pissed and all that shit, it could be because of Dream... I'm not assuming, well I am, but... Yeah you get it."

"Well that's a shame because they were planning on helping me-"

The door bell rings.

"Niki, we are here to help-"
A british man annouced, only to stop as he stared at the group of people and the familiar ghost

"Well hello..." Niki said nervously.

"George, what's going on-" Sapnap pushes in, also noticing Dré.

"Explain."

Earlier....

George and Sapnap slumped around their shared house, feeling angry.

Angry at Dream.

It's not like Dream cared about him or Sapnap, but the two needed Dream to comfort them. The blonde haired man was always there to help calm down George and Sap when they're stressed.

But Dream ran out the door, and he hasn't came back since. The argument was only yesterday, they would've made up the next day but Dream wasn't there to apologize.

"Sap, I know you're angry, but we gotta go help Niki. We promised to help her bake." George said, putting on his coat. Sapnap didn't move from his chair. "Maybe this will help us take our minds off of him for awhile. Once he comes back, we'll talk it out? Alright?"

Sapnap huffs, getting up. He also puts his coat on. They both walk out the door, staying silent for moment as they stood there. George turns to look at Sapnap. "Are you okay?" The brunette asked.

Sap immediately hugs George. The other laughs, hugging back. "It was hella suffocating in there, thinking about the pictures of all three of us standing and smiling together."

They pull away, making their way towards Niki's bakery.
