Another morning passed with Lilith in tears and Corpse trying to keep calm for her.

After Nick's text, Lilith hadn't heard anything from either boy living a couple hours away, and so of course her brain ran off to a worse case scenario. While Corpse was equally heartbroken by the situation, there was nothing he could do about this except stay with her until Dream decided to grow up.

Even if he did come to his senses about everything, Lilith knew it was coming; she saw it in Corpse's eyes. Every time they talked about him, she saw how enraged he got and no matter how Dream changed, Lilith assumed he would talk her into leaving him for good.

Why did it have to be this way? Why did she have to ruin everything?

"Lilith," he started one morning and Lilith held her breath. She checked her phone; a little over four days since her text from Sapnap. She looked over to him; he stood at the bedside where she lay. "I think we should talk to Sapnap."

"There's no way I can do that."

"How come?"

"He–He won't trust me. I–He definitely doesn't have a reason to trust anything I say."

"What if I just talked to him?" LIlith contemplated it but there was no hope.

"If you'd like, but he'll probably not listen." And Corpse laughed.

"Sapnap doesn't listen to anyone, especially not me."

"I wouldn't either if I said 'no seriously, who is Sapnap' live with my full chest–" Lilith squealed when he pinned her down to the bed.

"Oh yeah? If you wanna talk about dumb things we've said on stream, I can definitely fight you on that."

"I'd like to see you try," she laughed and she evaded his playful bites and kisses on her neck and face. After one last shove, Corpse stood up, but held her hand. "Get up. I think we should stop sleeping all day."

"But it's so easy to," she whined. Her head turned to the side and Corpse sighed.

"Fine, I guess I'm ordering food all for me and just for me."

"Ugh, no you won't." He walked to the bedroom door.

"Yes I will. No crab rangoons for you."

"What?" She gasped. "How could you?" And she followed him out of the room.

"Before I order food though, I'm going to call Sapnap." Breathlessly, Lilith looked over at him and didn't move an inch. He turned to her. "Hey, it's okay."

"I'm sorry, I just—"

"No, I know. This is heavy stuff, but I'm right here ready to support you, okay?"

She agreed and with that, Corpse pulled his phone out.

Her stomach twisted at the sound of the ringing; it was on speaker.

"Corpse, what's up?" And there it was; the tension Lilith expected but hoped would not be there.

"Hey, I um—I wanted to talk to you about the text you sent Lilith."
