"All you've done is ruin my life, Dream! You-"

"YOU'VE DONE THE SAME TO ME!" Dream finally snaps. All the blame is always put on him. Nobody cares about his feelings, Nobody cares about him.

Everyone goes quiet as harsh, hiccuping sobs echo around the walls. Dream hides his face in his hands and sobs.

He hurts so much and nobody can see that. It isn't fair. This isn't fair.

Dream lets himself fall to his knees. He doesn't care if he looks vulnerable or weak. He's tired of bottling everything up, he can't anymore.

"Dream?" Punz is at his side in a instant, his voice gentle and caring. Dream shakes his head quickly, not being able to get anything out besides stuttering breaths and loud sobs.

His hands find his throat and he attempts to scratch at it in a attempt to free up his airways, he can't breathe.

"No Dream- Don't do that." Punzs soft hands find Dreams and hold onto them tightly.

"Can't-.. breathe." He manages to choke out, coughing as he speaks. "It's okay Dream, it's okay." Punz sits in front of Dream carefully.

"Here, breathe with me. In and out." Punz places one of Dreams hands on his chest. "In and out, again." He guides Dream gently.

He knows Dream is regressed, he knew as soon as he'd lost his patience and yelled at Tommy. Big Dream doesn't do that, big Dream is collected and patient.

When Dream can breathe again, though still stuttering and hiccuping, Punz relaxes.

The dirty blond still has tears streaming down his face and his face is still hidden but he's okay, physically.

"What..?" Tommy mumbles. Punz had completely forgotten about him. "You." Punz stands up, keeping a hand in Dreams hair so he knows he hasn't left.

"You idiot! Don't you know anything? You ruined his life." Punz glares at Tommy angrily. He knows how Dream feels about Tommy but he didn't know that it could cause a breakdown like that.

"How? I never did anything to him!" Punz tenses when Dream whimpers lowly at the tone of Tommys voice.

"You took all the peace away, you caused wars and violence, and you got him put in prison. He's a villain because you made him one." Punz somehow stays calm during this monolog and when he's done he leans back down to Dream.

"Nobody else would tell you off so he had to. You wanted a villain, didn't you? Someone to blame? You guys did this to yourselves, Tommy." Punz lays Dreams head against his chest and begins rubbing his back.

"Didn' wanna be bad." Dream whispers, his voice breaking. "Oh honey, you're not bad." Punz coos quietly at the little.

"Bu' I am, m' a bad guy." The tears continue to flow as Dream says this. He didn't want to be bad, he never did. He just wanted peace and to have fun.

Why can't he ever have peace?

"Oh, sweetie." Punz lifts Dreams face in his hands, looking Dream in the eyes. The sight breaks his heart. Dream with tear stained and red cheeks, teary yet dull green eyes, and the most heart breaking expression on his face.

"Oh, baby." Punz whispers, his own eyes tearing up. "Come here." He pulls Dream close, cradling him safely in his arms.

"I won't let anyone hurt you anymore." He whispers with a breaking voice. "I'm sorry I wasn't there." Punz lets his own tears fall.

Silence overtakes the prison. Dream is dozing off and Tommy and Punz don't have the heart to wake him.

"Punz?" Tommy whispers, he had sat down long ago. "What." Punz isn't particularly happy to be sharing a room with Tommy but Dream needs him so he needs to be near Dream.

"Is he okay?" Tommy's voice wavers slightly when he asks this. "Uh, he's okay. He just needs rest." Punz shrugs slightly.

"Okay.. Could you tell him.." Tommy pauses. "That I'm sorry? Please?" He finishes and swallows tightly.

"Uhm." Punz looks down at Dream who's half asleep and dissociated in his arms. "Sure, don't expect him to forgive you though." Punz knows Dream won't ever forgive Tommy. He might stop holding the grudge but he won't ever forgive the person who ruined him.

"Okay." Tommy looks at Dream for a second before standing up. "I think you guys need space so I'm gonna.." Tommy looks at the door and Punz knows what he means.

"Goodbye Tommy." Punz mumbles.

When the footsteps sound farther away and he can only hear his and Dreams soft breathing, Punz relaxes.

He pulls Dream closer and puts a hand on the back of his head, gently playing with Dreams curls.

"I'll protect you, I promise." Punz whispers.

He knows that Dream is asleep by now but he needs to say it.. He won't let his Dream get hurt, not anymore.
