mystery ; {bill x reader}

chapter two ; sweet dreams love

You didn't know where you were, or what you were running from, all you knew is that you wanted to wake up from this horrible nightmare that for some reason, you couldn't escape from.

This place you were almost summoned in was dark and dreary, it almost seemed to glitch, the colours were different shades of gray, just like Bill's doing before you drifted off to sleep.

Was this Bill's doing? Probably not. And about last night, you forgot to mention, he can read your mind? Sigh, no hope now.

Now I should keep running.

~

You were a panting mess, but you made it to an odd broken house, which was full of doors. You dared not to open any of them.

'Geez, can I at least have some company, no? Then wake me up!' Yup, you've officially gone insane, you're talking to yourself now.

Almost on cue, once again, Bill showed up.

In human form, great. Time for another round of tormenting.

"Great, now I'm dreaming about you too." You bluntly said, it rolled off your tongue like a growl.

Bill chuckled, "Geez kid, no need to get grumpy! And I'll have you know this is my doing, doll!"

Your cheeks burnt, "Excuse me? Did I give you permission to call me 'doll'?!" You said, covering your face with a handy sweater.

You heard Bill laugh once again, and in the blink of an eye he was behind you, "Say (y/n), you look pretty cute when you blush!" Your eyes widened and you tried not to burn up even more.

"W-well! Well you should shut up!" You said, 'smooth as hell.' You thought.

"Aw! And now your flustered. Enough of that, thoughts on giving me that journal yet?" You heard Bill say off somewhere else.

"Hmm, maybe? But I'd like something in return!" You smirked, he's a demon, he'd never follow through with this.

"I see, we're getting somewhere! What's the case?" Jeez, Bill was eager for this thing.

"Well Bill, I'd like a friend." You stated.

Bill didn't look intrigued at all, "A friend?"

"Yes Bill, a friend" You smiled.

"One friend coming righ-" You cut Bill off, "No silly, I want you for a friend!"

Now this was the reaction you were looking forward to, his eyes widened, well eye because whatever is under that triangular black patch, you assumed it wasn't an eye.

"Well, (y/n)! Consider it done, deal?" His tanned hand become engulfed with a blue flame.

"Am I supposed to shake that or something?" You said with a worry filled voice.

'He expects me to burn my hand just for a jour-'

"No, this? This flame couldn't hurt a fly, its just a flame a use to make deals with."

"Oh, okay." And you shook it, and the dream ended.

~

You woke up in a cold sweat, '4:49am' You thought, 'Geez, what a wicked dream.'

"I can have you know that was most certainly not a dream, love." That voice, you knew it anywhere.

"Bill I swear to god if your in my house." You called out, "I'm right here!" You heard him laugh and out of nowhere he appeared in front of you, causing you to jump and roll out of bed and a loud thump was heard.

You groaned, half on the bed, half on the floor, tangled up in a mess of blankets, you heard Bill laugh, it started off as a small "ha" but now he was in full out laughter.

"Bill, please."

"What?" He stopped laughing and look at the mess. "Oh, I can help you with that."

"Thanks-" You were cut off by him laughing, "But I wont!" Rude.

~

You finally untangled yourself from the mess and you were now sitting on your bed while Bill flew around your room.

"Say, come to think about it (y/n) you don't seem bothered that a Dream Demon is just casually floating around your house" Good point.

"I don't know, you just don't bother me for some reason." You said, "And I don't feel like you came to hurt me so I didn't see you as a threat, I guess" You finished.

"Well, I hope you don't mind but I'll be staying here for a bit, just kidding I'm staying whether you like it or not." Bill said, smirking.

"Oh, okay. Still want this?" You reached under your pillow and grabbed the journal.

"Oooo, yes I do!" God, he sounded like a 12 year old on Christmas.

"I'll have you know that I am older than everything in this house combined!" Bill shouted.

"And you're calling me doll? I could take you to court!" You said back, in a playful manner.

"Now now, (y/n)." He said, coming closer to you. "You wouldn't want me to take that journal by brute force, would you?" He was basically whispering in your ear, you shivered, and another blush rose to your face.

"N-no! Get away from me, perv!" You yelled, fumbling to get out of the blankets and made a run for the stairs.

"Oh? A game of hide and seek I see?" Bill said, slowly counting.

"I'm not playing your games, Cipher!" You screeched, franticly searching for a place to hide.

"I'm afraid you don't have a choice, (l/n)." Bill said, almost in a seductive tone.

"Pervert!" Okay, you found a spot, it was small and claustrophobic, but it was good enough.

~

It's been around 3 minutes since Bill finished counting, and now that he checked upstairs and in the bathroom, you heard light footsteps coming down the stairs.

"(y/n)! I know you're down here.." You sat perfectly still, in all hopes of not moving.

You thought you were safe until you felt an odd feeling, like hot breath on your neck.

That's exactly what it was, you dared not to turn around but you gave in and did anyways.

And when you did, you punched him square in the nose.

Bill frowned, "Ow! Come on man, it was just a game!"
