George POV.

It was like all of my nightmares had actually happened. I was being ripped to shreds by a pair of sadistic demons who were laughing and chatting with one another as though they weren’t beating someone to death. Especially someone who just so happened to be unable to hurt them and was just in the wrong place at the wrong time.

All that I could hear were my own screams and sobs and begs, trying to convince the pair that I had learned my lesson and to just let me go. Either my words were too jumbled for them to understand or they didn’t care about my pain and torment.

Suddenly there was a large growl and the beatings stopped. I didn’t bother to look at whatever was going on as I quickly rolled myself into a protective ball, shivering as I finally began feeling my own blood dripping down my face, arms, and chest. All that I could do was continue to sob and shake.

A few moments passed before footsteps approached me and I was lifted up. My instincts immediately kicked in and I started screaming, kicking, scratching, biting, and doing whatever else I could in an attempt to get free. It didn’t work though and I began getting carried back to wherever this creature wanted to take me.

I sobbed out, but it was quickly silenced by the creature who moved me to look into his eyes and… it was Dream. Tears continued to roll down my cheeks but now they had a new purpose, they were tears of joy, happy that he was willing to do all of this for me. That he was here to get me out of this situation. Especially after everything that had happened.

“Thank you.” I murmured, my voice sounding weak and strained but he still understood what I meant and nodded. I began nuzzling into the warmth of his chest, muttering apologies for running away and for yelling at him and for every other little thing I’ve done wrong.

“It’s alright.” He hushed, brushing his hand through my hair as he accepted my apology. “You are alright my precious human. I am not mad.” He noticed my tears and hastily, but gently, wiped them all away. “You are crying.” He noted. “Are you still upset? Are you mad at me for something?” I shook my head.

“No.” I whispered to the blond. “I’m happy. You managed to keep me safe. I am so sorry for everything that I have done and…” I cut myself off with another sob as my shoulder throbbed. “And I just got beaten up dumbass,” I added, awkwardly chuckling and groaning at the same time.

“You’re right… I’m sorry.” I groaned out in pain again as his hand brushed over one of my exposed injuries from under the ripped hoodie. He hushed me, noting my injuries and the way I was acting. “Let’s get you home and I can bandage you up.”

I nodded, more than happy to get out of this cursed forest. It seemed like every time that I was here I got injured or had some kind of panic attack. This was probably a good time to give up and just start letting myself get taken care of. It would probably be a nice way of apologising for all of the shit that I’ve done.

But none of this stopped the tears that were rolling down my cheeks. As Dream observed me he sighed. “Some wrath demons just can’t control their temper.”
“What?” I questioned meekly, confused about what the hell he was talking about.

“One of the demons who attacked you was a wrath demon. They can often be more prideful than pride demons such as myself. He saw you on a bit of land which he says was his and so to defend the land and punish you for trespassing on it he decided to beat you to death. Fucking extremist. Also Sapnap knew the guy, I remember him introducing me before.”

“Oh.” I replied quietly. “What about the girl? What type of demon was she?” Now that I actually bothered listening instead of spending all my time planning an escape I actually found this really interesting.
“She was either a greed demon or an envy demon, perhaps a mix of both.”

“How can you tell?” Yeah this was really fucking interesting. It also just so happened to distract me from the pain that was just everywhere.
“Envy demons are jealous, greed demons are power hungry. She said some shit that tipped me off.” He paused and smiled lovingly at me. “When you learn the signs it is easy to tell.”

I nodded before nuzzling into him. He cooed down at me, probably happy that I was no longer hating him and screaming any time that we were in the same proximity. I now knew how utterly stupid it was to hate Dream because of the nightmares. He was basically a giant teddy bear with razor sharp teeth.

“My precious human.” He cooed. “I love you so much. You are never going to be hurt again.” His words comforted me and I looked up at his face. Dream’s eyes glowed softly as he cradled me close, almost as if I was the most precious thing in the world to him. This was something that I guess I could get used to.

It took a while, but eventually he returned to the house and carried me up to the bedroom. Both Sapnap and Karl were downstairs and saw the blond hugging my bloody form and they rushed to follow after him. “What happened?” Karl asked worriedly. “George…” Sapnap picked the brunette up and hugged him to try and keep him calm.

I managed to smile weakly at my best friend before being taken up the stairs to Dream’s bedroom. The room was warm and I began feeling tired as he allowed me to lay myself on the soft sheets. “I’ll be right back.” He told me, before disappearing into the bathroom. A moment later he returned, holding a wet cloth and a first aid kit which he opened beside me.

As he assessed my wounds and tended to them he whispered comments about how good I was, about how I was so strong for dealing with two demons, and how brave I was. The comments seemed a bit patronising, but his caring words helped me nonetheless and they made me blush.

When I was securely bandaged the blond turned and hurried out of the room. He almost collided with Karl in the doorway, and he cautiously came into the room to ask if I was alright. I explained to him that I was going to be fine and when Dream returned with food my best friend shuffled back out. The demon moved over to me and sat close to me.

He held me in his arms and fed me and gave me water, seemingly cautious to leave me alone after everything that had happened. After I ate what he deemed was enough food, he wrapped me up in warm blankets and held me protectively until I fell asleep.
