As I set Tobin and Liam to sleep I shut off their lights and went downstairs and sat at the kitchen table

One week it's been since the sirens went off and we all have stayed close to home and just well hid but I wasn't really worried what is he going to do kill me

My dad had been going on more adventures lately and he seems he be enjoying himself he mostly stays in the neither reconnecting with his Piglin origins

As I read my book I thought about my boys and how they were so nice Ash was my daughter but I didn't spend too much time with her as she grew older she is a nice girl and I'm really happy to know that she is living her best life with people she loves

As I continued to read I glanced at the window and from a distance, I could see a bright green colour and emerald green

And then I felt someone staring and I got up and walked through the door and all I could see from the snow and darkness were those shiny green eyes

"If you're just going to watch me might as well come inside you creep" I yelled and I saw a figure in the distance stand up and start walking towards the door and the closer the figure got I recognized him

He had long hair and more scars than before his mask was broken on his left eye and he looked exhausted

As he got to the stairs he stopped and I went up to him and slowly brought my hands to his face and he nodded as I slowly took off his mask

He was the same but different his face looked beaten up and he looked worn and tired

I brought my hand to his cheek and he leaned into the touch and I gave a light smile

At one point in time I did love his man he's I used the L word surprising yes but I did at this very moment I forget everything he did and I felt reminded why

"If you don't hurt my boys you are welcome but if you even poke them the wrong why clay I will murder you in cold blood no matter what" I spoke and he looked shocked as I took his wrist which still had one side to a handcuff on it and pulled him inside and sat him on the couch

I went and grabbed a bobby pin and picked the lock on the other side of the cuff and he was free

"Do you want to keep the long hair or do you want me to cut it?" I asked "cut it" he whispered and so I set a chair in the  kitchen and got out a towel and he sat down and I went and grabbed a brush and a pair of scissors

And I slowly started cutting his hair "why are you being nice to me after all I did" he asked "I don't know" I whispered and brought his hair into a low ponytail and started cutting it "I can bring Wilbur and Tubbo back" he spoke "I wouldn't mind but only if I don't owe you" I added "you being nice to me is a surprise on its own I want to change and get my sanity back I want to be Clay and not Dream" he admitted "when whatever you decide after burning that book" I told "why" he questioned and I started shaping his hair

"It's the reason you end up in prison clay the power you have over others is so great you don't know how to control it," I told "I still have it in my mind tho" he mumbled "but if only you have it there's no chance in someone taking it and becoming what you became right" I added and he slowly nodded as I finished up and walked back to the front of him and placed both my hands on his cheeks and tilted his head up

"You are beautiful clay" I whispered and I saw water form in his eyes as he slowly stood up and gave me a hug

He was warm

He was always warm

I missed this warmth

Once we pulled away I went upstairs and grabbed some old clothes and led him into the bathroom and let him take a shower and change once he was done I took the old prison uniform and grew it out and cleaned up all the blond hair from the floor

As he was cleaning up went down to the basement and opened the windows and set up the futon we had and once I heard the water stop running I went back upstairs and saw him doing down I led him to the basement and he laid down "remember what I said" I murmured and shut off the lights and walked to my room and fell asleep

"Momma" I heard a soft voice say as I felt someone jump on me and I opened my eyes to see both of the boys on my bed

"Liam Tobin what are you doing up so early," I asked and sat up "what do you mean it's 11 o'clock" they spoke and my eyes widened and I went downstairs and saw a note on the kitchen table

Dear Kora

Thank you for your forgiveness I have decided it's my time to leave everyone's life and start fresh somewhere else please don't try to contact me or even look. I also have taken your advice and hope your surprise will find its way to you soon. I hope you and your family live long and happy lives and I hope you know my love for you will forever hold a strong place in my heart maybe I'll see you again someday

I ran down to the basement and saw everything neatly put away and the bed made and I slowly walked upstairs and put my shoes on "boys go to uncle Phil's house please" I yelled and ran out of the house and got on Carl and rode down the path ignoring everyone that spoke to me as I reached the place everyone spawns in and noticed two people sitting at the base of a tree and I felt myself beginning to cry

"Wilbur Toby" I yelled and they both looked at me and I felt the tears stream down as Toby got up and ran over to me and hugged me and I combed through this hair "I was so scared everything was dark ace everywhere I couldn't see anything" Toby cried as I sobbed into his hair

We stayed for what felt like hours and when we finally pulled away Wilbur walked up to me he looked older but he was still as handsome as before and looked a lot nicer than before he died

He walked closer and closer until he stood right in front of me "can I kiss you" he whispered and I nodded and he leaned down and kissed my lips

They were so soft and they felt intoxicating like I've been starving and he gave me food

As we pulled away I hugged him and we stayed like that for a bit "we're finally together again" he whispered and I motioned for Toby to come into the hug and he did and we stayed like that until everyone was ready to pull away

Thank you, Clay
