Sixty degrees that come in threes.
Watches from within birch trees.
Saw his own dimension burn.
Misses home and can't return.
Says he's happy. He's a liar
Blame the arson for the fire.
If he wants to shirk the blame,
He'll have to invoke my name.
One way to absolve his crime.

What a weird dream to dream.

Your eyes shot open from the sudden sound of your alarm, and the first thing you felt was embarrassment from yesterday.

"Na-ah-ah, doll. You didn't think I'd forget about you calling me your boyfriend, now did you?"

Bill had wagged his finger at you and tsked. You specifically remember stumbling over your words, saying things like, "It was the first thing I thought of," as well as, "Why do you care so much?"

It didn't matter cause Bill still found a way to get under your skin, simply by saying, "And why would that be your first thought?" along with that smirk of his that never seems to leave his face.

Grabbing the pillow beside you, you dropped it over your head, held the sides of it, and screamed.

Although the morning had just started, it seemed like it was going to be kind of uneventful. Well, as uneventful as it could be with a life like yours.

You had been tossing and turning all night and when you heard birds chirping outside, you wanted to cry.

After what felt like 5 minutes, your alarm went off with the most annoying beep you've ever heard.

You sighed and rolled around, trying your best to ignore the blaring noise. But as you turned around, you felt something in front of you.

Carefully, you opened your eyes to see Bill's transparent body laying there, staring at you.

"Y'ellow."

You jolted, terrified and jumped off your bed, breathing heavily as he had surprised you. Bill burst into laughter and pointed at you, "You should have seen the look on your face!"

Your hand automatically went over your heart as you took a deep breath and closed your eyes, in some effort to calm down.

A thought dawned over you- Bill could communicate with you through your mind, and if he was beside you the entire time, was he listening to your mind hash over yesterday's events?

"The answer is yes, doll. I didn't know you cared so much."

"Sometimes I wonder why I'm still here with you." You stated bluntly as you glowered, "Well, at least you woke me up effectively. I'm too surprised to be in a bad mood. "

Rubbing your eyes harshly, you blinked several times to clear your vision. That's when you noticed that it was Bill floating in front of you. Not his human body, but his triangle outlined form - the same way he looked when you first met him.

You raised an eyebrow at him, "Wait, how are you- oh my God." You half screamed as your eyes trailed to the doorway, where Bill's body laid, his eyes hallowed out.
