It was a beautiful day outside. Birds were singing a beautiful melody as the sun shone bright, and the sky was in a beautiful shade of blue with no cloud in sight. It would've been a great day at the beach. But of course, it had to be a weekday. You were just gazing outside until your teacher called your name. "Y/n." you lazily turned your head. "Focus please, I know you're a smart student, but that doesn't mean you can just keep daydreaming in my class." Your teacher scolded. You nodded and looked towards the board.

Trigonometry.

 'I already studied this.' You groaned quietly. You then turned your head to look at the other students. They were all scribbling down notes, writing down whatever the teacher had written on the board.

"RING!!!" The bell rang loudly. Students quickly put their belongings and left for the cafeteria. You took your lunch as you were about to go too. "Y/n." Your teacher called. You rolled your eyes, then faked a smile as you turned to your teacher "Yes, Miss?" you said with a cheery tone. "Wipe that smile off. I can tell that it's fake. Anyhow, there's a math competition and–" "Yeah, yeah, sure. I'll join." You replied nonchalantly. "Great, you're dismissed." You walked off into the corridor and headed to the cafeteria. As you entered, you were approached by two skeletons. Two popular skeletons, one might say. They were Dream and Ink.

Dream is the brother of the student council president. He's a bit of an idiot, but people would always flock around him. Some say he has this... positive aura?– eh, you didn't feel it.

Ink, on the other hand, he's the school decorator. He's known for being quite talented with paint. Though all that talent must've stolen his already non-existent brain cells because this monster was an absolute idiot, he would forget anything you'd say to him after 10 minutes.

"Hello- Uh, Greetings!" Dream chirped. "Hi." You said casually. "Do you, by any chance, know who Y/n L/n is?" He asked. "Yeah, that's me actually. Need anything?" You replied. His eyes sparkled. "Oh, goodie! Well, Uhm, could you tutor me and Ink?" He nervously requested. You looked at him confused, How did he know who you were? You weren't quite popular "Uh, sorry but how do you know who I am?" You asked, Dream looked to be in thought for a few moments. "Oh right! My brother recommended you to teach me!" He smiled, Ink stared darts at you "Just answer the question." He hissed "Ink.. calm down, so, will you?"

 You hummed, "Well, first, why should I? Second, what's in it for me?" You asked, Ink's glare became more aggressive. "What do you mean what's in it for you? We're the most popular students here! I- We could easily change your social status–"
 "I care not for my social status. So, answer my questions, or I will refuse to cooperate with the two of you" You said in a serious tone. Dream looked at Ink, then back at you "Could you give us a moment?" He asked, you nodded as he ushered Ink slightly farther away from you. They whispered, argued, and glanced at you for a bit. Finally, Ink looked defeated and Dream came to you. He cleared his 'throat' "So, Ink and I asked specifically for you to tutor us because we have a test coming up, and we got a bit busy and- uh, didn't have time to study." He explained. "I see, and if I tutor you, what do I get out of it?" You followed up with "We'll pay you!" Dream replied. you thought about it for a moment
 "Name your price."

"3 gold for each session. "

"I'll tutor you. Friday, Ccino's Cafe 7 am."

"Alright, thank you Y/n!" He said happily as he walked away with a very pissed Ink. You smiled, satisfied with what you had done.
As you walked to an empty table, you were stopped by none other than the head student council; Nightmare.
 "Greetings." He said, you almost choked, 'Fuck, am I in trouble??' Hopefully not. "Uh, hello?" you replied, a bit nervously. "Where are you headed?" He asked, "T-that table." you said as you pointed at the empty two-person table "Oh, I see, may I join you?" He asked, you nodded. Like hell were you gonna say no to the student council–"Thank you."

 As you two were finishing your meals, Nightmare asked you a question; "If you don't mind me asking, what were you and Dream talking about earlier?" You looked at him with a puzzled expression "what Dream and I were talking about?- Uh, he asked me to tutor him." you said as you took one last bite before closing your lunch box. You sighed in relief, so that's why he asked to sit with you.

"I see. When will you two be having the tutoring session?"

"Oh no no, three. Ink wanted to join in, and we'll be doing it on Friday in Ccino's cafe."

He hummed, looking more pleased it wasn't just you and Dream. "May I join the three of you then?" He asked, you nodded "with pleasure! The more the merrier." You clapped your hands with glee. Nightmare seemed to shrink when he saw your cheerful smile, he mumbled words under his breath then bid you adieu. You walked down the corridor, lunch box in hand. Lunch wasn't even near over but might as well head to class early. As you were walking, a skeletal hand slammed next to you, making the skeleton pin you, you turn to see who this absolute– and of course it's Killer.

Killer is your typical 'bad boy'. He's a troublemaker, he skips classes, he's an absolute dumbass but girls flock around him. Ugh, you even had a crush on him once, how foolish you were back in grade school.
"It's you again." You hissed "Aw come on, that's not how you greet an old pal~" He teased, "What do you want?" You asked, a pissed-off look plastered on your face "Ohoho!~ so straightforward of you!" He exclaimed, making it look like you're talking about something dirty. Eugh. "I'll tell you what I want." His tone changed, from a flirty happy tone to a more monotone and stern one. "What were you and my lovely darling talking about, huh?" He asked "Wha- Your... 'lovely darling-?' Wait, you mean Night-?" You asked. "Listen here Y/n." He held you by your shirt
"You are not that close to Nightmare. Now answer my question."

 He demanded. "H-he asked me what Dream and I were talking about earlier–" You replied, fear shown clearly in your eyes.
Killer's expression then changed, "Oh! I see! Thank you Y/n~" He placed a kiss on your forehead, ew, that'll leave a mark. 'The hell was he on about?' you wondered.

You sighed, wiping your forehead. Then you walked to your class. "He's a weird guy, isn't he?" Ink casually chirped in "OH FUCKING STARS–" You yelled in surprise, a few weird stares looked your way.  "Woah pal, watch your language!" He advised, "Right- uh, sorry." You apologized. Now you two are awkwardly standing next to each other. "Uh- I'll head to class now, goodbye–" You said as you were about to leave "Ah, ah. Y/n stay." Ink said, well, demanded, You groaned.

"Yes, my lovely little ske-le-ton?" you said in a baby voice.

"what"

 "I don't like you, Ink."

"The feeling is mutual, Y/n."

"I. Know."

"HI, GUYS!! What are you both talking about??" Dream casually interrupts "Oh hello Dream." "Hey Dreamyy!" Ink ran to Dream with a smile on his face and hugged him, Dream laughed at the sudden affection from his best friend. You just left them as the two just walked somewhere.
