Sadstuck! Dave x Reader: Forgetting

Sadstuck! Dave x Reader: Forgetting [Extended Ending 1]

You decide to sleep in your comfy jacket, leaning against the plush walls. So comfortable as you nuzzle it. Plunging yourself in the welcoming darkness, you enter the dream realm.

You were back home, sitting on the tile floor with pills and your pocketknife. The pocketknife was black with a clean, silver blade that has the initials, (Your Initials) carved in red paint into the side. Dave gave you this. Wait, whose Dave? Remember that you forgot about him? No, go away. This is already upsetting enough. Fine, fine but this is going to be far fetched. Thank you...


Tears start to well up in your (e/c) eyes as you try your best to not cry. Failing at resisting, you sob into your hands. It seems to go on forever, until you hear the door slam open and warmth start to surround you.

“(Name)...” The voice was familiar and old, like recalling an old lullaby that your guardian used to sing to you. It was almost fake...which it was in a way true, due to the fact that you were dreaming. It kept repeating your name so you decide to investigate the person.

You weren’t surprised when you saw the notable glasses that he wore, dangling ever so still on his nose but they seem to be slipping from the.. was he crying??


You reach your hand up and softly wipe his tears away, smiling a bittersweet grin, “I missed you...” is all you can mutter, in which he replies with a tighter hug and a reflected smile that fails.


“Was...Was I too late?” He whispers lightly, giving a serious look which try to hide his worry. You hesitate but shake your head in response, feeling guilty for lying to him but it was for the better. 


He sighs a relief and knock everything out of your hands, exposing a grimace but covers it with a static face. He glances back at you and notices something you didn’t even realize yet.


“You’re crying...” He murmurs, bringing your chin up so he can look at your face. You wouldn’t be shocked if he gleans at you, for you know that you must look pale and weak. It was never a real surprise, never.


“Of course I’m crying... I haven’t seen you in so long,” You keep your steady gaze on him, even if you were attempting to avoid having a breakdown. You can feel your heart fall for him once again, making you start to feel more heartbroken since you knew it was just a dream. You missed him. You missed him and you knew it all along.


Could you still feel love in dreams? You didn’t know but you couldn’t resist kissing him, which came out to be very passionate. When he kissed back with the same passion, you relax and feel the familiar tingle that you used to love. You avoid whimpering about the bittersweet memories that are gone and that will never come back. He will never come back...will he?


You were never going to get him back... and now, you finally realized that but he was too late. He has about half a year late. He should have been there when you were crying over the announcement of his death. You told him to not go to that party and he even asked for you to come. Both of you didn’t know that a shooting would happen. You knew something bad was going to happen but not his death...never something that dramatic. That devastating.


“(Name), you need to listen to me very carefully. Yes, this is just a dream but it’s more than just a stupid dream. It’s actually me. I’ve came to see you so you wouldn’t be so lonely anymore...I’m so sorry if I fucked up,” Dave starts to get upset but he forces himself to keep calm as you can tell by the way he clenches your hand tightly. 


“I’ve been watching you and it’s breaking my heart to see you tear yourself apart. I swear to god..okay maybe just swear since he could kick my ass out of here, but I swear that I’m dying once again because you’re dying too in a way. I don’t want you to stop living because of me...” His voice was shaking horribly and you have to hold a hand to his neck so you can make sense of what he’s saying. It scared you to see him in such pain to even talk. You never seen him this upset, considering the fact that he rarely cries.


Dave... The one who loved you first. The one who keep you going through school even if it was torture. The one who promised..to not leave. And he hasn’t. Not even for a second.


“But Dave, I don’t want to be alone again. Please, I don’t want to continue living here,” You say with not a sliver of falsity in it. This place frightened you to death and you would rather be with him, no matter what it takes. The fact of that makes Dave pause and slowly go to pet your hair after so.


“That’s not possible but if you really insist.. I’ll try my best to give you what you want. You deserve it anyways since I was being so selfish last time,” His eyes were watering again, instinctively making you pull him close to another hug. A question lingered in your mind: Is it possible? Can he take you with him? You wanted it to be true but you can easily assume the opposite.
