Heya! I'm back after like a year! :D I'm gonna try and I mean try my hardest to post much more often. I hope you guys are still interested in reading this story. :3
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Ink's POV: I sat there wide eyed as Dream kissed me. He had wrapped his arms around my neck and was standing on his tippy toes, waiting and hoping, that I would kiss him back......but....I couldn't. I didn't feel this way for Dream. My soul.....belonged to Error. Downstairs we heard the faint sound of a door being slammed closed which signaled Dream to release the kiss. A small trail of saliva connected our lips(?) which Dream wiped away. He looked at me with saddened eyes.
"Y-you didn't kiss b-back...." he said sadly. I avoided Dream's eye contact, his positive energy suddenly growning fainter in the room.
"I'm sorry Dream...." I said to him, my voice also sounding saddened. I then heard the sound of sobbing and turned my head back towards Dream who had tears falling from his eyes. My soul broke a little seeing Dream, the little jumpy ball of positive energy, crying silently.
"Oh Dreamy..." I lifted his chin, "please don't cry...." He blushed slightly, but only slightly as tears still fell from his eyes. He took a deep breath and took my hand away from his chin and held it.
"You d-don't love m-m-me d-do you....?" Dream asked tears still falling. My pupils widened at Dreams question. He took another breath.
"Do....d-do you love E-Error?" my cheeks flushed a light rainbow. Dream did know....and I wasn't crazy when I saw him glare at Error or when I faintly heard him search through my room for the drawing I drew of me and Error. I looked down sadly. I do love Error, no matter how rude he can be.
"I-I do love Error....a lot," I said guilt traced in my voice. I then heard Dream drop to the floor.
"I knew it..." he said sadly, his eye lights gone. I approached Dream and crouched in front of him. I pulled him into a gentle hug, rubbing circles on his back. He placed his head in the crook of my neck and I felt his tears soak a bit into my shirt.
"Dream....just because I don't feel that exact way about you it doesn't mean I don't love you...." Dream pulled his head up and looked at me wide eyed.
"What...?" Dream said. I cupped his face and smiled.
"Dream you have the sweetest smile that can make anyone feel better. You are beyond polite and you are always so cheerful. You help and cook for others in need and protect the good citizens of each universe. Dream you are my best friend- no my brother and I could never abandon you," Dream had tears in his eyes again, "Just because I'm not your boyfriend, it doesn't mean I don't love you.
"Ink-"
"Dream I promise you there will be someone out there who will love you more than I, and that person will be the one for you." Dream showed more tears, but smiled and hugged me again. I rubbed hi back again slowly as he let more tears out. He was still crying for a while, but these were more like tears of joy. He finally pulled away from me and wiped his eyes.
"Inky....thank you..." he said still with a smile.
"Anytime Dreamy..." I said patting his head. I helped him stand up with me as he looked down again.
"I-it's gonna be hard to get over you though...." he said. I sighed.
"Forgetting a former crush is always hard to do Dream, but it won't be hard. And I promise I'll help you find that special someone." I winked at him and he giggled.
"Ok Ink." He hugged me one last time, "I trust you...."
I felt Dream's positive energy grow a little bit brighter.....
