3rd Person Omniscient POV
"Jeffery no more!" Ethan yells as his boyfriend snatches the champagne glass from his hand, downing the gold-colored liquid in one gulp.
Dream smiles as he runs his thumb across Y/N's shoulder. She takes a small sip of champagne and presses her lips against his cheek.
"Jeffery!" Ethan yells again as his boyfriend chases him around the balcony.
"Should we ask for dessert?" Y/N asks. She notices the waiter eyeing them through the glass doors. "He doesn't seem pleased."
Dream laughs as the waiter frowns, his fingers tapping against the side of his pants.
"I suppose."
He nods at the waiter who opens the door, stepping inside, the frown still remaining on his face.
"What can I get for you?"
"We'll take some dessert please," Dream says as he hears a scream from the other side of the balcony. Jeffery has cornered Ethan against the wall.
"Of course, here's the menu," the waiter places a white sheet of paper in front of them.
Dream lifts it toward him as Y/N sets her glass down to look.
"How about this one?" Y/N points at the dessert labeled Napoleon.
"One of our customer favorites," the waiter says, clicking his pen against the notepad.
"We'll take two of those," Dream says. He hands the menu back to the waiter who nods with a forced smile. "We'll make sure we get those two out of here with no damage," he adds, nodding at Jeffery and Ethan who are aggressively making out against the wall.
The waiter gives him a grateful nod and disappears through the glass doors once again.
"3 stars for being homophobic," Y/N jokes. She rests her head against Dream's arm which is draped around her.
"I think they just don't want a bunch of crazy people running around," he smiles, pressing a kiss against her jaw. "I would be doing the same to you if we were at home," he says with a smirk.
Y/N shakes her head with a smile as they both gaze off into the night. The city's lights twinkle against the blackness like stars.
"Wish I could live here," Y/N says. She traces circles on the back of Dream's hand.
"You can," he perks up at the idea. "You could move here." He ducks his head in embarrassment and adds softly, "I'd love to have you live with me."
"But I can't," she frowns and begins to fiddle with her napkin, twisting the white cloth between her fingers. "I have an apartment. I have a job. I have a cat. And I have a family."
"You stream," he says. "And soon, your videoes will make you more money than you think they will."
"Dream I honestly don't see myself getting to that level any time soon."
Dream places a kiss on her forehead as he sees the waiter coming back with dessert.
Just wait my love.
I have something planned.
"You never know," he mutters in her ear. "Things can change overnight."
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Dream slams the door behind them and breathes a sigh of relief.
"I hope Ethan and Jeffery get home okay," Y/N drops her purse on the coffee table and flips onto the couch. "I'm tired.
He chuckles and sits down beside her, wrapping his arm around her shoulders. She leans against his warmth, smiling.
"See, I told you that it would be fun," he grins, poking her cheek playfully. "Now you have to repay me."
"Wait what?" Her eyes widen and he chuckles at the reaction, brushing a strand of hair behind her ear.
"Oh not with money love," he smirks, kissing her lips before dropping his gaze to her chest. "I would love to sleep with you," he says in a low voice.
"Oh, not that!" Y/N wiggles out of his grasp but he holds onto her tightly.
"I'm kidding, I'm kidding!" Dream protests as Y/N begins to aggressively pull at his arms. He pulls her into a gentle embrace and strokes her cheek with one finger. "I won't do anything you don't want me to."
Y/N rests the back of her head against his neck and closes her eyes.
"Then I think I'll be very comfortable with you."
Dream nods in agreement, enjoying the peaceful sounds of the house.
The faint buzz of the air conditioner is the only thing that can be heard, except for Y/N's quiet breathing and the pounding of his own heart.
Her skin is warm against his touch and he adjusts the positions of his hands to be lower on his chest.
Somewhere, Patches would be sleeping, waiting until he got up to feed her.
Dream feels his eyelids begin to grow heavy and he yawns. The windows are pitch black, with not a single bit of light shining in the night.
That's what I get for living in a literal forest.
He yawns again, glancing at his watch which reads 12:45.
After midnight.
"Y/N," he mumbles, touching her shoulder lightly. "Time to go to bed."
"Y/N?" He pauses and notices that she's fast also in his arms, her chest rises and falls with slow, deep breaths. "Oh Y/N."
He places a kiss on her jaw and laughs softly with another yawn.
"Looks like I'll have to carry my sleeping Princess."
He picks her up bridal style, loving how her head automatically snuggles against his shoulder. He picks up her purse on the way as he slowly walks up the stairs, fatigue filling him with each step.
Dream tiredly reaches his bedroom and barely has time to place Y/N on the bed before he collapses right beside her.
"I hope you had a good time love," he removes his suit jacket and tie along with his shirt. He pauses, searching the ground for any fallen laundry before another yawn interrupts his thoughts. "I guess you will be sleeping with me tonight."
Y/N curls into a sleepy ball and shivers slightly. Dream notices that she's still wearing the short dress and pulls the covers over the two of them.
Hesitantly, he wraps his arms around her, pulling her body against his bare chest.
"I had an amazing night with you love," he mutters, his eyes beginning to close as the blackness of sleep engulfs him in its warm blanket. "I can't wait for you to find out what I'm planning for you."
