* Gassppppp rarepair?

* If y'all don't know, it's Horror x Dream, well, iirc anyways.

* Now we got something that I have no experience with! I have not written anything about these two yet so this is the first :D

* And worse, I still haven't given my Horror a good proper personality since I'm someone who's stories are Errorcentric, with Dream usually being the love interest since he's my piss baby bitch

* Let's see how this goes!

Title: The Apples' Guardian

╔══ஓ๑♡๑ஓ══╗

Dream was a happy village boy.

With a brother named Nightmare.

And a guardian for a Mother, who protects the sacred apple tree.

Dream was content with what he had, for he has experienced no grief.

That was until the battle that caused his mother's downdall.

To protect her children and the ripe blooms of the plant she swore to protect, she fought, and Dream watched.

Clutching his younger twin close, hands covering innocent eyes and ears and hiding away with the last set of fruits in his pouch.

"Dream, remember!" His mother called.

"You are the heir of the apple tribe! Protect your brother and the apples with your life, for they are our reasons why we're alive!"

Her voice was loud and clear to Dream, who shook as he held to what became his remaining reasons to live.

"Now run, Dream, don't ever look back!"

So, Dream did.

He ran, ignoring the battle cries of the villagers, and the war cry of his mother as she charged into battle.

Dream glanced down at the apples, before at his brother, who had seemingly fallen asleep, before he continued to run, fighting back the tears that threatened to escape his eyes.

A couple years passed and Dream entered the run down shack where he and his brother are currently living in. He pulled down his hood to reveal disheveled platinum blonde hair and long elf-like ears. "Brother, I'm home."

"Dream!"

Dream smiled lightly, sitting down besides his brother and ruffling his indigo colored hair. "I got us some food." Dream then sets down the bag of food that he got and opened it. A pair of fresh bread, a custard and three bagels. "Someone was nice enough to give me extras for us." Dream smiled as he sets the food down.

"Ohh... That sounds nice!" Nightmare cheered before gasping when Dream pulled out a book. "And look! I got you a new book!" Dream smiled as he gave the book to his brother, who happily took it. "Thank you brother!" "Your welcome brother." Dream then sat down besides Nightmare and took a bagel.

Glancing to the side, he eyed the pouch that had the apples, he still needs to find a safe space to plant those... But nowhere is safe still. He needs to find a groove or something...

He has to find it soon too...

Rubbing his gloved covered right arm, he ignored the pain of his arm becoming wood. He was still an apple after all.

They kept moving from house to house, shack to shack, never stopping once for Dream just can't find that one perfect spot. It was until then, he met someone.

"Ah, hello." A Lumberjack, a tall Lumberjack. "Hello..." Dream replied back hesitantly, adjusting his brother who was sleeping on his back. "Are you two lost?" The Lumberjack asked and Dream shook his head.

"No Mister, we're just travelling!" Dream put on his cheery smile and the Lumberjack tilted his head, Dream couldn't help but notice the huge scar that was barely covered by the black bandages wrapped around his right eye.

"I see, well, it'd be bad if you boys catch a cold. Looking at the sky, it might start raining soon." The Lumberjack looked up at the sky, and Dream did as well. Indeed, the clouds were gray, and filling up the sky.

Ah... He can't have his brother get wet... "How about you two stay the night?" The lumberjack suggested and Dream immediately felt weary, staring at the lumberjack. "Don't worry, I'm a good guy... May not look like it, but I promise you, I don't bite." He chuckled and Dream slowly nods. The lumberjack then turned around and motioned for Dream to follow, to which he hesitantly did.

If all else fails, he'll just cast a spell and bind him while he makes a run for it.

"Honestly, I don't know why you elves are even out here, if I remember correctly, you guys are afraid of the outside." Dream froze in his walking when he heard the lumberjack talk, narrowing his eyes.

"... You... How..." The lumberjack turned towards Dream and tapped his covered eye. "This eye of mine can see things magic, kiddo." Dream just ended up feeling more weary honestly, but the fact that this lumberjack didn't try anything still while knowing they're elves...

"I'm not a kiddo, stop calling me that... I'm already 22." Dream grumbled and the lumberjack blinked in surprise. "Really? When you're that short?" "You're just insanely tall!"

Dream only reached up to the lumberjack's chest. To be more specific, his tiddies. Now that he saw it, he only just now noticed how fit this lumberjack actually is.

"Fair enough." The lumberjack shrugged before opening the door to his house, Dream didn't even realize that they had reached it. "I usually live with my friends, but they're currently out and about, so you elves can stay here for three days."

Dream looked around the area before looking at the couch, walking towards it and slowly setting Nightmare down, glancing at the lumberjack wearily. As much as he seems like he's chill with the lumberjack, he could tell that this elf was very much weary of everything around him.

"What's your name?" Dream suddenly asked and the lumberjack blinked. "Huh?" "Name." Dream demanded and the lumberjack stayed silent for a bit before grinning. "Horror." Dream stared at Horror before nodding lightly. "...Call me Apple."

"Okay, Apple." Horror chuckled softly at 'Apple'.

Dream felt that he might've made a mistake, but he's just desperate right now, so he would only rely on his instincts, which are currently telling him that it should be relatively safe for now.

Ah, he really wishes he could find a grove soon.
