The weird figure later on in the story





My face glowed extremely bright.  After nightmare hugged me.  He wasn't gonna let go.  I closed my eyes.  I felt safe.  It felt like everything was gonna be ok.  Once nightmare let go of me.  I asked him about his ribs.  He said that they hurt but he was fine.  Then he asked me about what happened at his AU.  I explained everything.  When I showed him the bruise on my arm he got furious at the monsters.  He tried to  storm out of the room but ended up grabbing the doorway holding his ribs.  I convinced him to lay back done.  He wasn't happy about that.  His ribs would be fine but he couldn't turn into goopmare for a while. 

I texted horror and lust telling them that nightmare was ok and his emotions were back.  Nightmare was ticked off that he was stuck in bed because of his ribs.  I told him that if he needed anything to text me.  I sat down stairs reading a book.  Nightmare texted me asking me to come upstairs a while later.  When I reached the room I peaked in.  "Do you need anything?" I asked.  "I need  love".  I lowered my head and chuckled a little.  How did I know he was gonna say something like that.  I walked towards him and patted his forehead.  We both laughed a little.  It was getting late and we were both tired.  I layed down in my room and nightmare laid in paps old room.  I should start calling it nightmares room since paps dead.

The next day I woke up to nightmare Coughing in his room.  When I went to his room I saw him sitting up against the wall holding his ribs.  I asked him if he was ok.  "Yeah I'm fine it's just hard to breathe" he said looking at me.  I walked up to him.  I put my hand on the cracked rib.  Immediately nightmare flinched in pain.  I pulled my hand away.  "Sorry" I said.  Nightmare sighed then coughed.  "You're fine," he said in a high pitched voice.  "Will anyone get suspicious that we haven't been around since the tree incident?" nightmare asked.  "Horror and lust have that covered".  Nightmare looked down. 

"Are you sure you're ok?" I asked.  "I don't even know at this point".  I sat down next to nightmare and patted his shoulder.  Later that day nightmare got a text from dream.  "What is it?" I asked.  "Dream wants to meet up".  "But what about your condition".  "That's the down part".  Nightmare texted dream telling him that he was busy.  It would be about 5 days until he could turn back into goop-mare and about 2 weeks until his ribs were mostly ok and 1-2 months until they were fully healed. 

(Nightmare point of view)

Killer went back to the castle so no one would think that we were together.  My ribs hurt like hell.  I often held the area where my cracked ribs were.  It got pretty boring.  No one was around.  I didn't know what to do.  I picked up a book and started to read it.  It wasn't that interesting.  I mostly slept.  Dream kept texting me asking me where I was.  I ghosted him most of the time.  There wasn't any excuse that I could come up with that would be believable.  A few weeks later killer woke me up when he smacked two pans together.

"Killer what the hell" I said, almost falling off the couch.  "Wake up sleepyhead" he said laughing.  I pulled the blanket over my head and sighed.  Killer pulled the blanket off of me.  "Come on," I said.  I got off the couch and grabbed the blanket back from killer.  "Mine," I said, pulling the blanket towards me.  Killer grabbed the blanket back but I didn't let go.  We ended up playing tug of war with it.  "Killer" I started getting mad.  Finally killer let go.  I fell back a bit but I was able to steady myself.
