Not all Nightmares are bad (Nightmare Sans X reader)

Chapter 61- Wilted

Nightmare and the others waited outside the hall for about 30 minutes. Ink, Error, Cross, and Dream were quiet. Nightmare paced back and forth in front of the room. He's gonna have to go to work soon, schools gonna start in a few hours.

"Nightmare you should relax, stress doesn't look good on you." Said Cross quietly leaning on the wall. Dream nodded in agreement.

"I agree, Nightmare you're only hurting yourself more with all that panic." Nightmare stopped pacing and looked up at him.

"Do not tell me how I should feel." He said giving a glare. Cross murmured something lightly and went in front Dream in a protective stance. Nightmare rolled his eyes and looked at the door. "I don't even know why you're all here."

"Because they want to support you." Said a voice from behind. It was Pj. Nightmare stared at him, giving a disgusted expression.

"You should be home." Said Ink appearing near Error.

"You should leave." Stated Nightmare making a full turn. "We don't want you here."

Pj rolled his eyes walking pass him. "Correction, you don't." Said Pj with a wink. Pj walked to meet up with his parents. "Besides I'm not the only one here." He said pointing to the end of the hall. A bright lilac flame appeared from the darkness.

"Lux! You should be home." Said Dream heading over.

"Sorry, it's just Pj and I kinda, maybe, eavesdropped on your conversation earlier and kinda you know came over." Pj nodded in agreement.

"We're family too." He said placing his hands in his pockets.

"Family is too much of a strong place for you to use, how about... reject. Yeah I like that better." Pj flinched looking over at Nightmare who was giving this smug smile.

"Why you-"

"Quit it!" Shouted Cross summoning his knife. "I'm going to cut you both up if you don't shut up!" Pj looked away. "It's annoying hearing you both argue."

Nightmare looked away. Well at least I got something out of it. He scoffed and looked at the door his impatience getting to him. "What's happening?" Behind them was a small figure it was Jupiter. She was dragging her blanket with her in her pink onesie. She gave a brief yawn and rubbed her eyes. Everyone looked at each other perplexed of what to do. Nightmare only stared at the knob. Pj looked over to Nightmare then to Jupiter.

"Hey." Pj said a little nervous. He approached the small girl. "Whatcha doing up? You should be asleep."

"I got kinda lost looking for the bathroom." She said looking up at him.

He tapped his shoes and looked back at Nightmare expecting a reaction. Realizing Nightmare wasn't paying attention he looked back at her. "Here let me help you. The grown-ups are talking right now." He said patting her back as they started to walk.

"Than why were you over there?" She said quietly. Pj smiled nervously.

"HaaaHhhha!" Burst Error. "HuMmoRuuS." Ink rolled his eyes.

"You think everything is funny." He said as Pj got out of view. "It's kinda sa-"

"Shh!" Nightmare pushed his skull along the door. Hearing murmuring from the other side. Hearing taps and shuffling. Think they're coming back. He moved back not wanting to get hit by the door. As the door slightly opened Nightmare grabbed it, pushed it open and forced himself in.

"W-wait!" Called on of the guards after him. "She isn't recovered yet." The guard said a little nervous. "She's stable but we couldn't do anything."
