A light in the darkness |Nightmare x reader|

Home again

It had been a few weeks after the incident. the two party left the other sight as fast as possible. back to the place the girl had began to call her home. Y/n was walking down the halls and corridors. some bandages together with a bowl and a cloth in her hands. opening the large doors and walking in the room. Nightmare was sitting on his bed. back lightly pressed into a lot of billows. a bored look on his face as he had been put on house arrest by his best friend again.

"Hey Nightmare. feeling any better?" a sympathetic look on her face as she placed everything she was holding on the bedside table. "Still sore. how long are you even going to keep me coped up in this room?" he said stretching out. "Lets see on who the wound is, then I'll decide." Nightmare huffed, a light cyan dusting his cheeks, as he took of his t-shirt. A blush dusted his friends face as well as she began to take off the old bandages. taking the cloth and lightly cleaning it while Nightmare let out a small hiss of pain. washing away some bone marrow and moving the black tar to see the wound better before it would be covered again. "It seems like it's pretty patched up. I think as long as you don't get too much pressure on your ribs it wound crack further."

she placed the cloth back in the bowl. "I would like to keep the bandage on for extra support if that's fine with you? it will only stay on until it is fully patched up" she asked. after he nodded she began patching it up. a comforting silent filling the room. "Sooo..." Nightmare began when she was finished. taking one of her hands in his so she couldn't clean up and leave. "You love me?" the instant his words hit her she blushed so hard that a tomato would become jealous.

"Wh...where did you get that from?" she asked shocked. "I wasn't fully unconscious after i got this." he said pointing to the bandage that were now dripping with tare like substance from his chest. making her somehow blushing harder than she already did. "And?" she squeaked out. shutting her eyes closed and looking away from the skeleton "What...what if I said tha...that. what would you say?" her eyes met his hopefully and anxious. her face still turned away from him. both staying quiet. looking into each others eyes.

she blinked. wondering when he had gotten so close and when his other hand reaching up to cup her cheek to turn her face toward him. they was so close that she knew he could feel her breath hitting him. "I would say" he began. his voice dropping a bit lower than usual as he slowly stroked his hand down her cheek. making her hold her breath. "That I love you to" his words came out as a whisper before closing the gap between the two. catching her lips in a kiss. her eyes quickly fluttering shut and her hand quickly sneaking around his neck. his own hand going around her waist to pull her closer and putting her on his lap. the hand on her cheek going to the back of her head and getting tangled in her hair instead. kissing her possessively and a pit rough.

it felt so good, it felt so right. past thought about how they could lose their first, only and closest friend by risking a relationship crumbled. further worries thrown away. neither caring if they were destroying their friendship and putting it back together to something more. something stronger. Nightmares tongue slowly gliding over her lips making her gasp. he took the chance and slid his tongue into her mouth. her hand tightening her hold around his neck and somehow drawing him closer. making Nightmare letting out a small purr. the noise making her giggle which led to the kiss being broken. neither of them wanting to let go as they kept a holding onto each other. forehead leaning against each other as they keep eye contact. her intense and loving expression was enough to make him blush. he had never knew he would crave to be like this. to be hold and loved. Nuzzling his face into her neck and letting out a sigh. the room was again left in silence for a small while.

"What now" the human girls small voice made him turn a bit away from her neck to look up at her face. her expression was unreadable as one of her soft hand slowly sliding over his skull. "what do you mean?" he mumbled. she took a few second before she replied. "What... are we now? what can we call this new relationship? I do love you, but I feel it's on soon to call us lovers or mates. so what are we..." Nightmare left the room silent as he thought. "Girlfriend and boyfriend?" he suggested. hiding the nervous tone of his voice by nuzzling back into her neck. even more time based before she spoke. "I like the sound of that" she said as she kissed the top of his skull. Nightmare froze. the words going through his head before suddenly dragging her with him down toward the bed. she let out a surprised squeak before he laid her head on his chest. laying down on their sides as his hands tightened around her and loving kiss was placed on her forehead.

"I like the sound of that as well"
