The Rise ~Wilbur x oc~

"You aren't causing too much trouble are you?" I turned to see Dream leant against a tree his head slightly tilted. A big smile pulled onto my face,
"DREAM!" I shouted running over to him and crashing into his chest as I hugged him. He almost lost his balance but managed to stay standing.
"I missed you too" he chuckled hugging me with one arm as he waved to Skeppy with the other. I didn't say anything as I hugged him tightly. My fingers dug into his green hoodie, grasping at fist fullss of the material. My breath getting a bit shakey. "Hey" he said softly as he leant back a bit to try and look down at me. "Look at me for a second" I looked up at him, "What are you crying for?" He asked softly as he wiped a tear from my cheek.
"She was a bit homesick" Bad said. Skeppy must have helped him out. "Has been since the first night" Dream let out a small sigh as he shook his head.
"Then how about we get you home" Dream offered. I nodded wiping away the last of the tears. "Go pack up you're stuff" he nodded towards the house.
"Ok" I headed to the house to the room I was staying in.

I packed all my things and made sure the room was clean before heading down. Dream sat with Bad and Skeppy as they had some coffee.
"All packed?" Dream asked.
"Yup" I smiled.
"Did you want a hot chocolate before you go?" Bad asked.

I don't like coffee, Bad made me a coffee the day after I got here..... i thought it was hot chocolate.... I had to clean up the coffee... I felt bad for spitting it out...

"Yes please" I smiled and sat down beside Dream. Bad went and made a hot chocolate for me before sitting down. "Thank you"
"That's ok" Bad smiled.
"You didn't get into too much trouble did you?" Dream asked leaning back in his chair and looking at me.
"Nothing serious" Bad said as Skeppy looked a little guilty causing me to laugh.
"Am I missing something?" Dream asked.
"Nope" Skeppy and I said at the same time.
"Uh huh" Dream said, not at all convinced at our answer.
"They were a little mischievous" Bad explained.
"Right" Dream replied with a single nod and Bad started talking about things that Skeppy and I got up to whilst I was here. Some he laughed some he just shook his head.

"Well I think it's time for us to head back" he put his empty mug back on the table. "We're Already cutting it a bit close" Dream said.
"Alright" Bad said. We headed outside where Dream tied my bags to Winters saddle.
"Thanks for letting me stay" I said with a smile.
"That's ok, it was good seeing you again" Bad smiled.
"It was nice meeting you" Skeppy said. I gave Bad a hug quickly before going and climbing up on Winter.
"Oh and Skeppy, you should move to the SMP, just think of what trouble we could get up to" I said with a grin. I saw the small movement of Dreams head, 99% sure he just rolled his eyes.
"Maybe" Skeppy called as Dream started leading Winter.

After we got to the nether Dream stopped.
"Move back, I'll get us home faster" he said. I shifted back and he climbed up and we were off again.
"Dream" I asked quietly.
"Yeah?" He glanced back at me.
"What.... What did you do to Tommy?" I asked. Then a thought crossed my mind, I grabbed onto his arm,
"Hey, hey what are you doing?" He asked getting Winter back on track after he started to turn from me pulling Dreams arm holding the reigns. I pulled up his sleeve to see all three hearts still red. "I'm fine, I could have told you that" he said taking my hand for a moment.
"I just got worried for a second" I said.
"I promise I'm fine" he said softly.
"Ok" we continued on. "And Tommy?" I asked. Dream let out a sigh,
"He still has his" he replied and I nodded. I could tell he didnt seem too happy about that. The ride was quiet for most of the journey before we heard out a shriek. Dream pulled his bow from his back and knocked an arrow. There was an explosion behind us that spooked Winter causing him to run. I held on to Dream as he released a few arrows. I looked at where he was shooting to see the large white terrifying monster, a Ghast. I looked forward again to see the edge of the plateau we were on.
"Dream!" I shouted,
"I'm getting it" he said.
"No, no, no" I tried to grab onto the reins, my fingers constantly just grazing the leather, "DREAM CLIFF!" I shouted before hugging him and burying my face in his back. I didn't feel a drop and opened my eyes.
"I told you I had it" Dream said, I could see the cocky grin poking from the edge of the mask.
"I was scared ok" I mumbled resting my forehead against his back again.
"I know" he said softly, patting my hands. "I wouldn't let anything happen to you" he said turning Winter back on track, away from the edge. I was still a bit tense from the encounter but calmed down fairly quickly. I couldn't hold back the yawn that left my lips. "Tired?" Dream asked.
"Just a bit, couldn't sleep much" I replied.
"Miss me too much?" He chuckled.
"No" I replied quickly, maybe a little too quickly for it to be believable, "I just missed my bed" I mumbled.
"Mhmm" he hummed, "I'm sure that's exactly what it was"
