Why me?

Stirring friendships together

Dream waited once more out the front of the school,his phone by a notification from his brother,though his brother's text seems to not acknowledge all of Dream's previous texts,he couldn't help but let out a sigh.The warmer season was just around the corner as noticed by the flowers slowly appearing through small cracks in the ground or the tree's leaves glowing a vibrant green,even so,Dream still felt a bit down in the dumps.

Eventually the smaller skeleton heard the footsteps of his brother come up to him,the way Nightmare stomped and dragged his feet was recognizable to him.

"Dream" Nightmare greeted in a very neutral tone.

Of course,Dream would try to counter that greeting,"Hey,how was your day?"

"Like you care" He huffed,pushing the smaller skeleton aside as he walked past.

He felt a pang of sadness hit his soul as he follows his brother,"I do care Nightmare"

Nightmare didn't respond as the two kept walking down the street,tension was clearly in the air between the two,Dream just wished it wasn't this tense everyday--he wished he could just get along with his brother,though every idea he was immediately shot down was his brother ignoring him.

"Mom and dad are working late again,i'll be cooking dinner tonight" He spoke.

Nightmare let out a huff,"That doesn't surprise me"

"Well...what do you want for dinner?"

"Whatever"

Dream couldn't help but roll his eyes,"'Whatever' doesn't help me"

Nightmare didn't look exactly pleased with that response,"Whatever your so-called brilliant mind can make up,happy?"

The smaller skeleton decided that was enough of an answer,he didn't want to push his brother any further than he already has,more so that he didn't want to deal with his brother antics. At best he'll just cook up some pasta.

--------------------------------------------------------

"Yo Blue,ya meeting us at lunch?" Fresh asked the short skeleton.

"Of course! But i might be a few minutes late since i got cooking class" Blue explained to the 90s skeleton.

He tipped his red-yellow hat,"alright,make sure ta save some for us"

Blue let out a laugh,"hehe alright,alright,I'll see what i can do"

The two went on there way to their classes,Blue was happily skipping across the halls as his shoes clicked against the school floor,he eventually after some time he stopped at a thick white door,waiting with the other students.Soon the door clicked open,revealing his favorite teacher.

"Hello Ms Ehnni!" Blue greeted her.

The elder woman smiled,"on time as usual"

She eventually opened the door wider to allow the students to enter into the kitchen,Blue took an apron that hung near the door and made his way to his usual area,the food was closer to him and the stove at least worked compared to the other areas.The teacher called out each of the students name.

"Hmm." She hummed,"its seems like we're missing someone"

Blue was a bit confused,glancing around the kitchen,everyone seemed to be here,unless someone new was coming into the class or she missed a student.Before he could ask,he felt something overshadow him,his soul raced intensely as he turned his head around,only to be met with a glowing red eye staring down at him.
