Karl POV.

For weeks it felt like I, and everyone else in the house were just living on eggshells, I was staying close to my best friend out of fear that the creature that haunted his nightmares, Dream, would hurt him. It seemed that George wasn’t focusing on reason and was completely and utterly terrified that something awful would happen, such as Dream ripping him to shreds perhaps.

Every night George was woken up with nightmares, which in turn woke everybody else up. We would go through the same cycle of me and Sapnap comforting him, and Dream attempting to go and comfort him before being shooed away by Sapnap.

Currently we were playing minecraft. After Sapnap had taught me minecraft he began teaching me other games. Most of which had been created by demons recently and were really cool, but some had been created by humans and demons such as Sapnap had learnt how it worked. Of all of them though, minecraft was my favourite.

“I’m feeling kind of thirsty.” I stated as I looked over George’s shoulder at him building a pretty impressive house. “I’m gonna go and get some water and then I’ll be right back.” His attention turned fully away from the game, looking at me with worried eyes. Eventually he nodded.

“Just make sure that you are careful.” He told me, leaving out a few words which I knew he definitely wanted to add, making it so he said ‘make sure that you are careful just in case you run into Dream’. I simply gave a nod to reassure him, since explaining to him that that Dream wasn’t going to hurt him had not worked in the past and it would not work now.

“I will be careful.” I told him. “And I’ll see if I can find some snacks to bring back up.” He seemed happy with that and so I walked out of the room, making sure to shut the door behind me. I padded down the hallway, paying extra attention to the soft carpet beneath my feet today (for some reason).

Patches was also around, just laying by the staircase and possibly waiting for the opportunity to convince someone to get her food. “Hi Patches,” I greeted softly as I passed, however after merely looking at me with a twitching ear she then looked away, not interested in me in the slightest.

Sapnap was sitting on the couch downstairs on his phone, watching some sort of videos. I had grown completely and utterly addicted to phones after not being able to use them in over ten years and so I cuddled into his side to see what he was looking at. His hand wrapped around my waist holding me close.

Back when I was a kid, all that anyone in my family had was a phone which still had a keyboard, and the only game that I was able to play was snake, which I am somehow able to remember after over ten years.

“How is my favourite human going?” He asked me, turning off his phone when I sat down beside me. It was a shame since that was the main reason that I had sat down, but there were other good things as well. I murmured an answer before he hugged me closer. “I love you so much.” He reminded me. “You are my perfect pet. Why are you downstairs?”

“Came to get some food for me and George, and a glass of water. I kinda wanna sit here with you for a bit though.” He nodded thoughtfully, nuzzling into me with a purr. We’d gotten a lot more touchy with each other recently, which is the opposite of how George and Dream’s relationship is going.

In order to avoid George’s night terrors, after he’d wake up from a nightmare and I’d coax him back to sleep I’d go to Sapnap’s room and sleep there with the demon to keep an eye on George while I slept. His warm, gentle touches are enough to tire anybody out, and I just so happened to be the lucky one who got to use that to my advantage.

“Are you two enjoying yourselves?” He asked. “Since I was planning on streaming today, however, if you guys are having fun then I guess I will have to spend the morning lazing on the couch.” His face buried in the nape of my neck and he inhaled slowly, making me shiver against him from the strange feeling.

“We are enjoying ourselves.” I confirmed with a nod. I stayed leaning against the ravenette, blushing at the touches he was giving me. It made me feel giddy in an amazing way. Then his lips pressed against my neck and a small whimper fell from my lips.

The sound brought a possessive growl out of the demon who continued to kiss my neck lovingly causing me to squirm wildly under his touches. “Are you okay with this?” He asked, his hands holding my waist and pulling me onto his lap.

I had to think for a moment, perhaps even less than that before nodding. His arms wrapped around my waist and he purred before allowing me to lean in for a kiss. My arms went to dangle loosely over his shoulders as we continued to kiss each other lightly.

Dream POV.

My room became my only safe haven. It was the only place that I could be where I wasn’t surrounded by thoughts and reminders of the brunette human. Not being able to see him hurt me so fucking much, since all I wanted to do was take care of him however staying away for now was the best way to take care of him

In order to distract myself, I threw myself into work, investing all of my time planning new videos and editing ones which I hadn’t finished yet. One time I even live streamed, however I quickly grew upset and shut it off.

My stomach rumbled, reminding me that I needed to leave the room for food, and the bottle of water sitting on the desk was also empty so that would probably be the same situation. I didn’t bother to shut off the computer and save anything since it would be a two minute trip there and back, and I hurried down the stairs.

For a moment I paused at the bottom of the staircase, seeing Sapnap embracing Karl on the couch, kissing each other lovingly and it broke me. I mean, good for my friend that he and Karl are getting on well, but the human that I loved was upstairs hating me.

I balled up my fists and focused really hard to not allow the claws to appear and just quietly shuffled into the kitchen, trying to push all of these thoughts away.
