Tommy woke up and looked around, Dream wasn't there anymore? Of course not. The green bastard can sneak away from anything. And at this moment he is sneaking away from having to comfort Tubbo from another break down.
Tommy shook his head and looked over to Tubbo "Ey Bee boy. Wake up." Tommy's loud talking caused both Tubbo and Ranboo to wake up. Ranboo yawned while speaking "Wh- *Yawnnn* where's dream...?" (Not me yawning when writing this sentence 😭)
"He left- god knows when. sneaky bastard just left." Tommy giggled at the end The blond stood up and stretched. "Should we look for him?" Tubbo suggested but both Ranboo and Tommy gave him a look making sure he knew that it wasn't a good idea on his part. "If you haven't figured out Dream hates being babied." Tommy sneered "And looking for him everytime he leaves will make sure he leaves for good." Ranboo spoke softer giving Tommy a death stare.
"Oh..." Tubbo said as he joined the other two in standing up. "Let's just head back to the SMP. I'm sure Phil's probably worried.." Ranboo said while looking at the buildings in the distance. "Yeah."
The bench trio started their walk back to the SMP when they saw someone sitting in the middle of a flower field with a ghostly looking horse. Getting closer they realized that it was Dream! And was it spirit? the spirit of spirit? Whoever it was Dream was there. He had sticks bent into a rounded shape and a couple of flowers attached to it.
"Dream!" Tommy yelled which startled the horse. Dream just gave them a death stare. "Sorry!" The blond whisper yelled as the horse laid back down. The three stood in front of Dream and saw what he was making now. "Ooo! Flower crowns!" Dream just giggled and nodded at Tubbo's interest with what he's making. They realized there was a bit of happiness that could actually be heard in his laugh. Which caused the trio to smile.
"We are heading back to the SMP area before something happens. You wanna come with?" Ranboo explained, Dream just shook his head. The three shared a disappointed look but understood, and they walked off leaving Dream sitting in the field.
The blond sat there with spirit making random stuff with grass sticks and flowers for hours. He wasn't sure how long it truly was, just knowing that when he saw Tommy, Tubbo, and Ranboo the sun was just rising, and now it was above his head. His legs hurt from sitting cross legged for hours at a time, not moving. His throat dry from not speaking.
The blond cleared his throat, "You ready to go back spirit?" His voiced cracked a bit while speaking but quickly fixed itself. As a response the horse quickly stood up and nudged their head against Dream, which caused Dream to laugh at spirits silliness and stood up.
Dream decided to take the walk slow, and walked with spirit at a normal pace. It was a peaceful walk which you never really get while living on the DREAMSMP. and I guess the reputation still stands, Not even half way back to the SMP someone... who Dream rather not see. Had shown up.
"Dream...?" A males voice that was all to familiar to Dream spoke. "Corpse... W-What are you doing here?" Dream wasn't going to lie... He missed the deep calming voice of Corpse. But... It also hurt to hear.
"I- umm... Someone invited me over..uhh. K-Karl..? Jacobs? This is the right place...Right?" Dream whimpered hearing his voice and his nails into his palms. "Yeah... It is.. But your in the wrong area." Corpse noticed Dreams voice was a lot more cold then the last time they saw eachother... 'Did something happen? Is he mad at me..?' We're the only thoughts in corpses mind.
"Karl lives in kinoko kingdom." Dream turned to spirit so he wouldn't have to look at the ravenette. He wouldn't have to look at his curly hair or his ruby red eyes, he wouldn't need to see the tiny bit of blush on the other males face or how nervous he looks. He will just need to deal with the fact that it feels like everytime the male speaks his voice is ripping him in half...slowly...
"Are you...able to show me to kinoko?" Corpse said and his voice was filled with hopefulness. Dreams heart was moving faster then it ever has, he was sweating just from a simple favour. There was a lump in his throat, and he couldn't swallow it... "fuck..." Dream whispered quietly his eyes closed tight. "Yeah. Yeah..whatever. sure." Dream quickly hopped onto Spirits back, Dream looked at Corpse expectingly. "We're gonna ride the horse bareback?" Dream just nodded, Spirit never liked tack. Corpse grabbed Dreams hand and got up, sitting behind Dream. Dream sighed as his hand tingled where Corpse touched him. Then Corpse moved his hands to hold on, the only place he could think of was Dreams waist.
As soon as Corpses hands landed on Dreams waist the lump in the blonds throat got bigger and a huge shiver went down his spine. The lump in his throat made it difficult to breath. But he pushed through it. Dream pushed his heels into spirit getting them into a gallop and heading to kinoko kingdom.
"You never came back to visit..." Coprse spoke in a low voice knowing it got under Dream's skin. "I didn't have a reason to.. I fixed everything here. didn't need another break." Dream spoke with a lot of breath. Just from hearing Dream you could tell something was happening. But Corspe wasn't sure...what.. it was. Just knew that it wasn't good..
Corpse stayed quiet, seeing how much his presence had on the blond. He didn't want to make it any...worse.
At last they arrived at kinoko and Karl was waiting at the gate, when getting closer, Dream brought spirit down to a slow trot. "Thank you Dream.. I mean it." Dream just nods and stares forward. The last thing he heard from Corpse was a sigh. It sounded like it was a mix of sadness and defeat.. but also a bit of admiration. Once Corspe was off Spirit, Dream got the horse to back up, And quickly nodded at Karl. Dream turned around and trotted off.
the feeling in his throat hurt more then anything. it felt like something was stuck in his throat, not just theoretically, but literally...
The blond thought it was all in his head though..Well that was until... He started coughing up blood...
"What was that about?" Karl asked Corpse as they were walking over to Sapnap and George.
"I'm not sure..." Corpses deep voice sounded deeper best guess is caused by confusion and dissatisfaction. "Just..."
"Something from the past..."
