When in Doubt (Nightmare x Blue)

Criminal

*quick a/n before we start. I have another story called A Multiverse Reborn. It's my AU and I just want you guys to know that it's there. I don't expect you to read it, but if you do, could you give me a little feedback on how I'm doing? Anyway, onto the story.

Dream's pov

I would have never gone on that date if I had known that Fell was going to show up. But at the same time, it was nice to see Nightmare caring about someone. I could see a little of the brother I'd known when we were kids.
He had been so shy, and I guess it was partly my fault. I had always worried about my own problems and never stopped to consider his. I wasn't the best brother.
Ink had assured me that I had done nothing wrong, and I didn't blame him for trying to help, but he had never had any siblings, so he didn't understand the full extent of it.
Blue acted like it was no big deal, but he always did that when he felt bad about something. He blamed himself for a lot of things, both breakups included.
I told Nightmare about this the other day and he said he'd try to find a way to break that wall, gently of course. That honestly surprised me. Nightmare had never been gentle in his dark form, and barely ever in his light form.
I was glad Nightmare was being gentle. Blue didn't need to rush into another relationship like he had with Fell. But at least Nightmare treated him like a boyfriend instead of just a friend, like Dust had done. It was a happy medium, and Dream knew that this was going to be Blue's one.
Dream got home that night and went to check on Blue. He found Nightmare stroking Blue's skull while he slept. Dream had left them alone...after taking a few pictures, of course.
Downstairs, he laid next to Ink as they watched a movie. The movie wasn't important. What was important was that he was with the most important person to him in the entire multiverse.
Dream smiled and curled up to Ink, feeling the other give him a kiss on the crown of his skull.
"I love you."
"Love you too, Golden boy."

Blue's POV

I woke up to a cyan colored eye looking me straight in the face. I froze before remembering that it was just Nightmare.
"Good morning. Sleep well, little blue?"
"Yeah. You?"
"Better than I have in a while."
I smiled and curled closer to him. Nightmare purred and curled around me like a snake.
There was a knock on the door. "Wake up, you two! Ink made breakfast!"
"Pancakes!" I squirmed out of Nightmare's grip, making him whine. I dashed downstairs and grabbed a plate, grabbing another for Nightmare and running back up to my room. I gave him a plate and started eating my own.
"Hey, I think mine's better. Wanna try?"
I looked over and saw that he had one bite left. I smiled and nodded, only to see him put the last bite in his mouth. "He-"
He pulled me close and kissed me, sliding his tongue into my mouth. My face burned and I froze. He pulled me closer, and I started to kiss back, looping my arms around his neck.
He put one hand on my cheek, pulling away. My face was still bright blue. "U-uh..."
"Like it?"
"Mhm..."
We both heard a squeal and my face went darker instantly.
"Dream, what the hell!"
"Sorry!"
"Get out!"

*lol
