You think you're funny right?

Calling me drunk when it's too late at night

Telling me truths that you know all are lies

Yeah, you think you're funny right?

The bitter cold of the night nipped at your skin as you stormed over to where Dream loomed, over the sea on a small cliff. “You’re hurting them Dream, they’re just kids! There was no reason to kill them you motherfucker!” You cried. Dream let out an annoyed scoff, “You don’t know what you’re talking about (Y/N). You’re just drunk.” 

You think you're super sly

Flirting with them but telling me you're mine

Building me up, but buttercup you lied

Now I'm gonna ruin your life

You gritted your teeth, making a small cracking noise, “I’m not drunk Dream.” Dream put his hand on your shoulder, his tight grip contrasting heavily to his soft tone, “Just go back inside (Y/N), you’re probably just tired. Not in the right mind.” 

'Cause I've gotten tired of the games that you play

When you tell me you love me then you throw me away

So cry me a river 'til you drown in the lake

'Cause you may think you're winning but Checkmate

Yeah you may think you're winning but Checkmate

 You shoved him off roughly, kicking dirt at his direction before storming off toward the house the two of you shared. You grumbled to yourself, “I’m tired all right, tired of you and your petty games.” 

Why wouldn’t he just listen to you?

 Now this is getting fun

I saw you kissing someone else's tongue

You said that I'm the only one you love

Baby this is getting fun

 A smile danced across your lips as you cuddled next to Dream. It was supposed to be a sweet moment, bringing nostalgia from before Dream became a villain. But in truth, it was the moment you had decided that given the chance, you’ll steal a cannon life of his. 

 I'll let you think you won

Date in the park I'll play it super dumb

Holding your hand but in the other one

I'm holding a loaded gun

Yeah baby you should really run

 Given that you only had one cannon life left, it was a risk to go up against Dream. Yet the thought of being able to repay Dream’s actions with a much deserved karma thrilled and terrified you to no end.

 'Cause I've gotten tired of the games that you play

When you tell me you love me then you throw me away

So cry me a river 'til you drown in the lake

'Cause you may think you're winning but Checkmate

Yeah you may think you're winning but Check-

 Dream had killed them. You didn’t see it coming, you didn’t expect it to happen this soon. But you knew one thing, he wasn’t your dream anymore, he was your nightmare. And you aren’t his sweetheart, you're going to be his downfall.

 And I'm gonna get you gone

Can't play me like your pawn

Set fire to your lawn

Just like you did to my heart

 Dream stood menacingly on the cliff, axe in hand. “Move (Y/N). Let me through.” “No,” You replied with a cocky smile, “I won’t let you get to them.” Dream breathed out a sigh. Of disappointment? Sadness? You didn’t care to know. Dream only  raised a potion above his head, “Then I guess I’ll have to fight you love.” 

 And I'ma wreck your car (and I'ma wreck your car)

And max your credit cards (and max your credit cards)

A lover on the large (a lover on the large)

You're gonna wish you never harmed me

 The shatter of the potion echoed before Dream rushed in, enchanted with strength. You hesitated before dodging his attack. The fatal dance on the cliffside and rushes of adrenaline dragged on for what seemed like hours before Dream’s parry faltered, allowing you to push him to the ground, his axe clattering to the side.

 'Cause I've gotten tired of the games that you play

When you tell me you love me then you throw me away

So cry me a river 'til you drown in the lake

'Cause you may think you're winning but Checkmate

 A victorious smile graced your lips, “Any last words Dreamie?” Dream huffed in defeat, “You know I did this for you. I did it so that we can have a beautiful life… Just the two of us.” 

You stumbled on words to say, “T-that’s bullshit. I don’t care for our relationship.” 

But then why did it hurt to say that?

 Dream smiled before pouncing, sensing your hesitation and whipped out his sword, repeatedly swinging at you until you were backed to the edge of the cliff. His maniacal laughter rang out in the empty vastness. “You thought! Haha! You actually thought you could betray me!” Your eyes widened in surprise, “W-what?” Dream gave a wicked smile, “Yep! And now I’m afraid I need to get rid of the traitor.” 

Time seemed to slow as you felt weightless, you tried to scream but it was cut off as your back crashed into the foreboding waves down below. Your lungs burned and screamed for air but it was hopeless, the currents were dragging you down into the depths of the darkness.

 And you did some damage so I'm making you pay

And no one's ever gonna love you anyways

'Cause you're just a narcissist who's totally fake

Yeah you may think you're winning this heartbreak

But you aren't gonna win it 'cause Checkmate

Dream has lived far longer than a normal person should for he had never met his soulmate. Yet he knew it was inevitable to find them soon. Perhaps the Dream SMP would finally be the answer.

Heart beats fast

Colors and promises

How to be brave?

How can I love when I'm afraid to fall?

Months ticked by as Dream stood on a overlook, watching his fellow members romp around the vast lands of the SMP. His thoughts clouded his mind, how will he ever find you? How will he ever know that he found his soulmate? 

But watching you stand alone

All of my doubt suddenly goes away somehow

Dream had first seen you in the community house chatting idly with Sapnap. Your smile lit up the world around him as you turned to meet his gaze. You gave him a shy wave and he waved back, a small smile making its way to his face. 

One step closer

I have died every day waiting for you

Darling, don't be afraid

I have loved you for a thousand years

I'll love you for a thousand more

He approached you with vigor, hiding his anxiousness behind the mask, “I’m Dream welcome to the SMP.”

Time stands still

Beauty in all she is

I will be brave

I will not let anything take away

What's standing in front of me

You and Dream talked for hours that day and he knew that you were special, perhaps you were his soulmate. That night he swore to himself he would do anything to protect you. 

Every breath

Every hour has come to this

A year has passed and you and Dream became close, holding each other up through the entirety of the hardships of war. You both stood on a hill in serenity, the sunset casting a warm glow upon you both. Dream then turned to gently caress your face as he lovingly gazed at you, “Can I kiss you?”

One step closer

I have died every day waiting for you

Darling, don't be afraid

I have loved you for a thousand years

I'll love you for a thousand more

“Marry me Y/N.” It took you by surprise as Dream knelt down in the middle of your living room holding an elegant ring. “I know this isn’t an ideal proposal but you’re the one, my soulmate. I know, and you probably do too, that we’re already both aging together. I finally found you after all these years, marry me.” Your eyes teared up as you let out a cry of happiness, “Yes Dream, yes! I’ll marry you!”

And all along I believed I would find you

Time has brought your heart to me

I have loved you for a thousand years

I'll love you for a thousand more

Dream was slipping, that much you knew. He would always visit you with new wounds and few words. And all you could do was stand by and watch him become less of who he is each day.  

  One step closer

One step closer

I have died every day waiting for you

Darling don't be afraid

I have loved you for a thousand years

I'll love you for a thousand more

“DREAM!” Your cries echoed in the room as he tormented Tommy and Tubbo. He swiveled to see you and the others of the SMP emerge from the nether portal. His cold gaze was fixed on your left hand where the glimmering band sat. “You shouldn’t be here Y/N. This has nothing to do with you.” Your tears flowed freely as you watched him get backed into a corner with one thought in your mind. He isn’t your Dream.   

And all along I believed I would find you

Time has brought your heart to me

I have loved you for a thousand years

I'll love you for a thousand more

Y/n sat on the edge of their bed, allowing the sun to breach the crack between the curtains. They hummed along to the melodic strums of their guitar, their face scrunching in concentration each time they adjusted their fingering along the frets. “C to Am then to C and Am again?” Y/N played the chords softly, humming in satisfaction. “That sounds quite lovely.” Y/N’s head whipped up to meet the soft, chocolate eyes of thier older brother.

“I thought I told you to knock next time,” the younger grumbled as they shuffled to make space for the older male. Wilbur let out a small chuckle as he sat next to Y/N, softly motioning to hand him the guitar. Y/N complied and watched with curiosity as their brother played the same chords C to Am then C to Am again. Wilbur drummed his fingers along the upper bout speaking thoughtfully, “Maybe you should F, G, C, then G to the next line. Here listen.” The soft melody sang, it’s wistful beauty slicing through the room.

“Hell that sounded good.”

“Of course it would. After all, I do compose songs.”

“You’re so full of yourself.”

“But you still love me anyway.”

The smile never left either of their faces as Y/N took the guitar and strummed the same melody, thier fingering much smoother than earlier. Wilbur felt a surge of pride as he watched his baby sibling play the melody without any breaks. “You’re doing so well Y/N.” The youngster didn’t respond, only giving Wilbur a bright toothy smile.

“I’m almost as good as you now aren’t I?”

“Almost, You’ll get there someday.”

“Really?”

“Yeah I mean it. I’m so proud of you N/N.”

Wilbur ruffled Y/N’s hair. The latter batting the hand away playfully. A beat passed before Wilbur stood to adjust his L’manberg uniform, a signal that it was time for Wilbur to depart yet again. Y/N turned their gaze to the floor, smile fading away as they waits for the inevitable goodbye. Wilbur cleared his throat before giving a small smile, “I’ve got to go now. Keep practicing yeah? I’ll be back before you know it.” Y/N nodded meekly, teary eyes glued to the floor. A blanket of silence fell upon them as Wilbur spared a few apologetic looks to his sibling before shutting the door behind him.

Alone again, Y/N allows a few tears to spill onto their cheeks. I wish he could have stayed longer… Where it’s safe from the brutality of war. Y/N gently places thier guitar next to their nightstand and decides a nap is in order.
