It's a Challenge [Dream team x Reader] UPDATES PAUSED

Part 5

Y/n's POV

Waking up the next morning I could hear the skeletons starting to burn and I could feel the cool night air starting to get warmer.

Looking around I see that the door was open letting the breeze inside, but there was no George in sight.

Getting up onto my feet I grab by bag and sword and head outside.

'Where would he have gone'

I start to head towards the river that isn't too far from the house when I feel a hand on my shoulder.

"Hey y/n" a familiar voice says from behind me.

"What, George, where were you. I was getting worried" I said trying to sound like I was angry with him for leaving.

"I'm sorry, I was just getting something to eat before we start our next challenge."

George looks at me for a moment before clearing his throat, his eyes darting away from mine.

"Well, come on, this food won't cook itself"

He grabs my hand and starts to pull me back towards the house.

We walk hand in hand for a while before I gently remove my hand from his grip.

He looks at me before apologizing. "I didn't realize I was still holding you"

I look up at his brown eyes and smile. "Don't worry, I didn't really mind."

Walking past him to open the door I see a pink tint to his cheeks and a small smile tug at his lips.

When he finally joins me inside he puts the food he collected into the furnace and sits down beside me as we wait.

"So, do you remember anything about who you were before you woke up here?"

I think about his question for a second trying to remember anything about the day before yesterday.

"No, the only thing I can remember is my name. Do you remember anything?"

He looks down at his hands that are resting in his lap. "No, the only thing I remember is my two best friends, but I can't even remember their names."

Glancing over at him I see a frown on his face as he appears to be deep in thought.

I place my hand on him giving him a soft smile as he breaks out of his trance like state to look at me.

"Well you have me, I'm your friend, and when we get through this you will see them again. I can guarantee it."

He gives me a sad smile that doesn't quite reach his eyes before placing his other hand on top of mine and shifting to get up.

'I wonder when we will find the other players, we could always use some friends'

I watch as he removes the pork chops from the furnace tossing me one before sitting down beside me again.

We eat in a comfortable silence as we watch our hunger bars fill up.

Standing up I offer him my hand to help pull him up, which actually takes a lot of effort.

"Jeez, what are you made of, bricks?"

"I'm not that heavy, you're just weak."

He lets out a small chuck before grabbing his bag and motioning towards the door.

"Come on, let's get going."

Dream's POV

The sun is starting to set and I am still sailing across this huge ocean.

'It's like it never ends'

I stop to take a short break when I see a blue stick fly out of the water and over my head.

Peeking over the boat I see another stick flying towards me just barely missing me again.

'Oh shit, it's a trident guy!'

Picking up the paddles again I start heading in the direction the compass is pointing when I see in the distance a small pile of sand.

"LAND, I FINALLY FOUND IT"

As I near the shore I see a figure stand up and put away what looks to be a piece of bread.

'That must be another player, but why are they on the beach'

I crash the boat into the sand and jump out collapsing onto the shore as the figure approaches me.

I look up at the player who has stopped right in front of me.

"Dream? Is that you?"

I sit up and look at the player who is staring at me with a shocked expression.

"Yeah, why"

I take one look at the player's clothes seeing the flame shirt and white bandana around his head and I immediately know who it is.

"OH MY GOODNESS, SAPNAP"

I stand up and wrap my arms around my best friend giving him a big hug.

Releasing him I take a step back and ask him the question I have been trying to answer the whole ride here.

"So what are we doing here?"

He looks at me confused.

"You think I would know? I was going to ask you the same question. All I know is I woke up, found a bunny, listened to a message, was told to come here, lost my bunny, then found you"

I stare at him for a few seconds letting his answer go through my mind.

"You found a bunny?"

He gives me a blank stare before rolling his eyes and turning to walk away.

"It doesn't matter, he ran away when I was sitting on the beach"

I start to follow him away from the beach when a small dirt hut appears in my view.

As we get closer I see him start to take off his backpack and offer me some bread that he has.

I take it from his hand and smile gratefully. Opening the door he motions for me to go inside.

I finish up my bread as he shuts the door behind him and sets his stuff down.

"I know it isn't much but I wasn't planning on staying here for long" he says as he lays down.

"Tomorrow we can try to find the others" I mutter more to myself than him.

He replies with a subtle head nod before I hear a soft snore escape his mouth.

I stay up for a little while longer before laying down as well and giving into the darkness.
