PJ's Daycare (My Version)

Part 26

"Hm? Oh, I'm... fine... just a bit worried..." PJ sighed.

"See, we get new kids occassionally, but one thing we have almost no experience with is a vampire... Vampiress, one of Milly and Luna's siblings, is joining. There's also Hunter... and Draca... I don't know much about Hunter, but she sounds like a good kid..."

PJ smiled as he glanced at the papers. The Monday coming would be a surprise for sure...

Meanwhile, with Cray:

He sat down at a table, Lux sitting opposite him. She smiled at him.

"So, I was thinking on the way here... could we learn a bit about each other...?"

"Oh, I'm not that interesting!" Cray replied. "But, I'd love to learn more about you..."

"Well, ask away!"

"First question I have, do you have any siblings?"

"Oh, yes! Fa-... I mean Starcross... sorry... he's my younger brother... he only allows me and close friends to call him his nickname, Faith... so, if you ever meet him, call him Starcross, alright?"

"Gotcha. What about a soul mate?"

"Well... I've heard 2 people in particular ship me with a skeleton named... Goth...? I don't know..."

Cray jolted, his eyes going black. "Damn... I was hoping to avoid his name for at least a year..."

"Are... you okay?"

"Yes, Lux, I'm fine...... just...... ahem...... memories...... anyways, what about any best friends?"

"I'm... not up for talking about that right now..." Lux looked away.

"Alright. I won't push you."

With the kids:

"Blue, knocking over the tower isn't the aim of the game. You just lost..."

"What?!"

"I'm sorry, but it's the truth."

"Dream, I say that was a tie! I didn't know the rules. So, we can try again!"

"Hahahahaha! Alright then, sour berry..."

"Dream!"

"Hehehehe!"

Cross stood off to the side, just glancing up every now and again, a light blush on his face.

Quick note from the author: Many of the ships in this are ones I've done in a roleplay with a friend, but some are original ships like they were supposed to be as I wrote with my OCs. Like, Luna x Classic Sans for example.

And for one that we did that I don't know is true, the Lux x Goth situation is from a roleplay since we did Cross x Dream and couldn't do a Poth ship. So, we went with the next best thing.

When Blue and Dream had set up the wooden block tower again, an invisible force knocked it over.

"Blue! I said it wasn't the aim of the game!"

"I didn't do it that time! I swear!"

Cross looked up in confusion, only to see Chara laughing at what had just happened. Yeah, Chara had knocked over the tower.

"Chara! That's not how the game is played." Cross glared, and Chara just laughed.

Palette looked at the clock, seeing it was getting about time to start closing. He smiled, and walked into the break room, where PJ was just finishing up with the paperwork.

"Hey, PJ... it's close to closing time...... we may want to return the kids soon..."

"Oh? That late already? Well, I'll get the closing sorted. You, Goth and Gradient handle the kids..."

"Got it."

3 days later:

It was Sunday. The day before the new kids were going to arrive. PJ was extremely nervous, but he didn't show it to the kids.

"Alright, I'm going to check on Milly. She needed some extra rest today. She'll be alright, everyone."

PJ smiled, standing and going into the other room. But before he could reach the door, a yelp came from inside. He opened the door quickly, seeing Milly holding her head, tears falling from her eyes. She was shaking as well.

PJ couldn't even say anything before Dream raced in, climbing onto the bed.

"Hey, it's okay... it was only a bad dream..." Dream smiled. "Look at me... please...?"

When Milly did, Dream turned his eyes into stars.

"Now, what shape are my eyes right now?"

".... s-stars..."

"Yes... that's right...... all the stars in my eyes...? They shine brightly... even ones that are further away... but, some stars aren't shining as bright as others... however, soon, they'll get their chance to shine above all the rest..."

Dream dried Milly's tears, smiling.

"So, who's to say you aren't one of those stars?"

The girl smiled a bit, "Mmhm..."

"Now, what caused such a panic?" Dream asked. "You can take your time... or you don't have to answer..."

"........."

"That's alright... we can discuss it later... get some rest... bad dreams are not allowed this time though, kay?"

"Hehehehe...! Okay, Dream........ thank you...."

"No problem..."

PJ smiled at the scene, "Looks like she doesn't need my help..."
