Darryl's P.O.V

A mix of ringing and silence, switching back and forth. I slowly open my eyes. I sit up and listen for where the repetitive noise is coming from. I hear it coming from my hand? I look down and move my hand, underneath it was my phone. I picked up my phone. I turned on my phone only to be slightly blinded by the sudden brightness, opening my lock screen I quickly turned down the brightness. I checked my notifications. I had two missed calls from someone. I opened up the notifications and read who the calls were from. Clay had called once at 12:07 and again just now at 12:11. Thinking it may be important, I pressed the call button, it rung once and only once before I heard a voice.

"Hi, sorry if I woke you up," Clay said quietly.

"It's okay, is something bothering you?" I asked, getting straight to the point. Tomorrow, well today, is Friday, meaning we have school, I'd rather not be asleep during class.

"Well, I spoke to George about what has been happening quite recently, so I just thought I'd check on you," Clay said.

"Oh, that, I'm fine," I said with a small smile even though we weren't on video call.

"Well in that case I guess I'll let you get back to sleep, if you need to talk or anything feel free to let me know," Clay said.

"Okay, thank you Clay, goodnight," I said.

"Goodnight," Clay said. I pressed the end call button and put my phone back down. I laid back down on my pillow and closed my eyes, allowing my mind to wander until I fell asleep.

Clay's P.O.V

I stared down at my phone, I didn't really know what to think. I felt worried but then again relieved? George and I had spoken over the phone once he arrived at his house. He had spoken of how Darryl may have Hanahaki, yet we're unsure. We don't have much information to go off of other than Darryl coughing up petals. He could've just been eating flowers though, but I highly doubt that. Maybe I should just give up on the thought for now, we still have to get through the school day later today. Placing my phone down, I laid down. I closed my eyes and allowed myself to drift off into sleep.

Slowly, I opened my eyes to feel something running from my mouth. I took a guess of it being saliva, with that I took my sleeve and wiped it off. Looking at my sleeve I was surprised. What I had wiped from my mouth wasn't saliva, unless saliva is red that is. I looked down at the floor to see petals laying in a circle around me. I looked back at my hands, which were now stained with blood.

Shooting my eyes opened I sat up and grabbed my phone, I turned on my phone and used the light it emitted to look at my hands and sleeve. No blood. It was just a dream. I checked the time, 12:43. I hadn't even been asleep that long. I sat my phone back down and laid down again. I thought about the dream I had for a few minutes. Sighing, I closed my eyes and tried to fall asleep again.

579 Words (Including the warning)

I apologize that this chapter took so long to get out, also I am sorry that it is shorter than other chapters before. My motivation has flatlined for the time being, although I do plan to resurrect it soon enough. :) Good chance weekly chapters may happen (This is a maybe thing please keep that in mind). :D Although for now, I will work on planning the plot a bit, but before that, I was wondering about long this story should be, by time and date in the story, I'd put the maximum time limit at February or March, and the minimum at December or January. The story started on December 10th, Thursday. Also, I know I've asked before, but which ending? I can do both a sad and happy ending if wanted, but depends. Other than that, that's that for this chapter. If Anyone included in this story is uncomfortable with the events in this story, such as Dream and Bad explaining that they are uncomfortable with being shipped, I will take this story down as soon as possible, please let me know if they do say that. Other than that, I hope this was an enjoyable chapter, please let me know if there were any errors that I need to go through and fix, (Grammar, Spelling, etc.). 

:D
