The Hunt

♡ ̆̈II✩

"Mmph!~"

She sighed, letting herself drop onto the bed. "That... was amazing, right?" she smiled, turning to her side. She rested her head against her hand, staring at the man beside her. The man hummed, staring up at the ceiling of his bedroom. He took a deep breath before looking at her, flashing her a smile. "Yeah. Definitely," he said.

She smiled, reaching her hand to him. She ran her fingers through his dirty blonde hair. It felt so soft between her fingers, and the sweet aroma of his shampoo filled her senses. She couldn't help but stare at his beautiful emerald eyes. "I think you should go," he said.

"Oh, come on! I can spare a few minutes~" she sang, running her hand against the man's cheek. He sighed as he looked away. He couldn't help but think of hunting. He wanted nothing but to hunt that moment—anything besides being with the woman beside him. She wanted nothing but sex, which was what he wanted at first, too. However, her intentions changed mid-way through. The man noticed. After she began to get more touchy than she had been from the beginning, he knew he had to be quick to get rid of her.

He only ever got with girls for a night. Typically, they'd be gone by morning. The man would always give a clear message that he wanted nothing more than just a fun time. After all, he was a hunter. He needed some action besides murdering animals and monsters that lurk past eight o'clock.

"Dream, I thought we were feeling something--" she frowned, pushing out her bottom lip in a pout. The man, Dream, rolled his eyes before turning to her. "I thought I made it clear tonight that this is a fling. Nothing else--" he said.

She sighed, sitting up as she wrapped the blanket around her body. Dream returned to the ceiling. He listened as the woman stood up from the bed and made her way out of the room. "Can I at least get a shower before I leave?" she asked from the hallway. Dream hummed, "Yeah."

Dream sat up, glancing to the floor. He groaned as he stood up. He began to look for his clothes. He found them quickly, pulling them on. Water began to gush out from the showerhead in the bathroom. The curtains were pulled. Loudly, too. He rolled his eyes as he scratched the back of his neck, walking in front of the mirror hanging on his wall. "Hmm..." he hummed, staring at his reflection. The blonde's eyes trailed down to his neck, finding a vicious bruise underneath his jaw. His eyes widened, "What the hell?!"

He could hear a small thud in the shower, "Sorry!--I might've gotten out of hand with the kissing!"

He groaned loudly as he grabbed a bandaid, a makeshift cover for the hickey. Dream rolled his eyes as he abruptly turned, storming out of his bedroom. "I can't believe this shit," he cursed, stomping through his house. He grabbed his bag full of arrows and potions his friend had brewed. "Hey!" he yelled.

"Yeah?" the woman answered. Her voice sounded muffled. After all, there was a good distance from the bathroom to where Dream stood. "If you could lock the front door after you leave, I'd appreciate it. I'm leaving--" he said.

Bang!--

Dream sighed as he let his head hang. He could hear small thuds and quiet footsteps following. The bathroom door creaked open, her head peeking from the side. Her wet hair dangled. The water drops would slide down the strands, dripping to the floor. She shot him a bright smile, "Of course! Where are you going?"

"Somewhere. Don't tell anyone about this--" he said. He swung the front door open and swiftly walked out. Inside, she sighed. The woman returned to the bathroom, frowning as she walked in front of the mirror. She stared at her face, "He'll come along!" She dropped her towel and returned inside the shower, continuing her shower.

"Yo," Dream sighed, dropping his bag on the ground. He approached his friends who sat on the dock. Their legs hung from the edge, hovering over the gentle waters. The fish swam happily. Squid swam around, too, but often they'd slam their bodies into the sides of the land. One of the blonde's friends turned around, smiling as he lifted his hand. Dream smiled in return, dragging his bag on the ground. He let go of it once he stepped onto the dock, sitting between the others.
