"I was the one that got Cara killed in the first place."

I honestly don't know why I said that, because it's not entirely true. I guess it was the heat of the moment kind of thing. I never actually planned on telling Y/N. It was a thing of the past, I didn't think it really mattered; I was a different person then. If I'm being completely honest, I've forgotten a lot of stuff that happened before I met Y/N. She's been the center of my world for a while, and nothing else really matters to me anymore.

The look on Y/N's face was something I couldn't quite read. Her face was blank, and I wondered if she even processed what I just said. If I could go back to a minute ago and take that whole sentence back, I would. Maybe it would've been better to tell Y/N when I first met her, that's my mistake. I feel bad for a moment, but the image of her kissing Eret makes me angry at her once again, even though I believed her when she said it just shocked her. He kissed her first, and he better pray I don't see him any time soon, or it won't end well for him.

"What?" she replied, finally.

Now the appropriate response would've been to explain the whole thing, to start at the beginning. But that would take a lot of time, which is something I don't think we really have, especially with Karl here. I haven't seen Karl in what feels like forever, and I feel bad for not greeting him properly. Karl's always busy, so whenever we see him, you know something's up. And just from my gut instinct, I have a feeling that whatever this issue is, we're all involved. Which means we're all in danger. That's the only reason Karl came back. He probably wants to see Sapnap, but I don't know if that'll happen any time soon. I haven't seen Sapnap for quite some time, for all I know, he could be dead. It might be better for Karl if he was, since Sapnap wouldn't be the same person Karl knew.

"I knew who Cara was. We had business together for a while, I'm surprised you didn't know." I mumbled. Y/N's eyes grew wider the longer I talked. When she didn't speak for some time, I took that as my sign to keep explaining.

"She helped me keep tabs on L'manberg, she was actually a part of it once. One day, she told me she could no longer help me, because she had someone to take care of, that person being you. I got angry and lashed out, she barely escaped with her life. Apparently word spread that she had helped me, because not even a year after she left, she came back. The place looked way different, so I guess she didn't recognize it. Wilbur thought she was a threat, Tommy got scared, you know the rest."

Y/N stared at me in shock. She looked like she wanted to cry, but physically couldn't. A small tear fell from her right eye, and she fell to the ground. I fell with her, wrapping my arms around her. She didn't fight me, she didn't yell, she just sat there.

"Dream! Y/N!" Karl yelled from a distance. I stood up immediately. Y/N stayed still. It was scary seeing her like this, she looked like a zombie.

"You lied to me-" I heard Y/N whisper to herself, but I was too focused on Karl running towards me.

"Dream! We found you!" Karl cheered, and that's when I saw Eret not too far behind him. If Y/N wasn't quite literally having a mental breakdown, I would beat the shit out of Eret right now.

"What's going on?" I asked Karl, though my eyes were still fixated on Eret.

"I can tell you, but you may not like it, nor will you understand." Karl huffed, catching his breath from running.

"Just tell me." I snapped, accidentally.

"Her  Cara is dead."
