Dream's pov

After I said that they both started beaming and looked really happy, I still can't trust them though I can't take any risks

"Well we can start right now! By treating you better!" They both said at the same time, then foolish took some out of her pocket, it was bandages, he passed them over to drista and went over to the other side of the room

"Right let's treat you wounds," she seem very hesitant on coming near me, she looked at me as if she was asking for permission to come near me

"Can..... can I touch you?" Oh she is asking for permission!

"Oh, yeah you can" that was a surprising start, consent was not something I was asked for in years! I'm not really used to it, she smiled at me and came over

"We need some medicine for these cuts, foolish do you have any on you?"  Foolish came over with some water

"Yeah, here you go" he said passing a bottle to drista

"This might sting a little" while she put some of the liquid onto a peace of cloth, a few minutes later I'm hissing in pain as she applied it to my cuts

"Sorry Dream but we have to clean the cuts or they'll get infected" that's new I've never cleaned them before, I've also never had any medical experience either.

"Right, I never knew that" once they herd that they both looked at me in horror

"How have you survived this long?!"

"What do you mean?" I asked in confusion

"You could die from infection dream, you have to clean them"

"It's not like I had any medicine," I said looking down

"We'll sneak some to you in your room" Just then my stomach growled

"Oh you didn't eat yet! Here try some of this" Drista said picking up the sandwich from the tray, I took a bite into it, it tasted okay, I wasn't used to food yet even back at the castle I didn't eat a lot since they didn't feed me before.

I took two more bites before I'm full

"Well? Do you like it?" Drista looked at me with big eyes

"Yeah it's good, but I'm full" they both looked at me confused

"Already?!"

"I can't eat a lot just not used to it"  they both nodded

"Let's get you out of the basement" foolish said finishing up on my bandages

"I'll go distract father" Drista said getting up

"No need, we can just say that you wanted to test some of you makeup on him" I looked at foolish with confusion

"What?"

"That wouldn't work how about we take you out to the forest and say that your helping us? Then we can make flower crowns like when we were little!"

"That might work, let's try it"

"Can you stand up dreamy?" I slowly got up and stumbled a little bit

"Well it's good enough, we can walk you back to your room so you can change"

Time skip

Once foolish helped me get changed he lead me over to the old man's office to hear drista whining

"Pleaseeeeee?"

"No drista, besides you could bring another servant with you why that freak?"

"Because, I wanna make fun of him!"

"Still no can't have the freak running away" then foolish dragged me into the room

"I can watch him father" I didn't say anything and just looked down, I can feel him glaring at me

"Fine, let me talk to him first" with that both drista and foolish left the room leaving me alone with him, he walked over and grabbed my hair pulling it

"You better behave! If I hear any complaining from drista or foolish I'll do so much then just giving you a few cuts" he whispered letting go of my hair

"I- yes sir" I bowed and he dismissed me

I walked out of the room and drista looked over at me concerned

"I'm okay, he said I can go with you" then I got tackled with a hug from drista and foolish

" woah easy!" They backed off

"Sorry, anyway let's head to the carriage!"

Well this is just getting started! Stay tuned for more!
