Cross's POV

    I awoke to a smaller, cuter version of nightmare. Why didn't he end me in the forest. All I wanna do is die in a ditch right now and not see anyone from a mile radius. Nightmare looked at me with sadness as he held my hand tighter.
    I was only confused and filled with sadness that I couldn't say anything to him. He held my hand carefully, as if he could hurt me with the slightest movements. I glance down with my half open eyes to see i'm in a hospital gown and covered with a soft blanket. Long wires were strung from my arms to a machine, the warmth from my hand disappeared and my hand was laying down on the bed again.
    I tried to move my arm but it wouldn't move at all. I then tried to move any other part of my body but there was the same reaction, none had moved. My heart started to panic and my face stayed emotionless. The only part of me that could move was my eyes, then I realized...I had sleep paralysis.
    My eyes looked closed, so nightmare couldn't tell I was either asleep or awake. He sat down in a chair by the bed and took hold of my hand again. The bottoms of his eyes started to fill with tears as they fall quietly onto the bed. My arm was lifted off the bed from him holding my hand.
    The next thing I know, I see dream, ink and blueberry come into the room with happy faces until they see me. Their faces turn from joyful to worry in mere seconds of them bursting through the door. They rush over, dream going on the side of nightmare and ink and blue going on the other. I only sat there listening to their conversation. I soon fell asleep and I could feel something on my hand as I did...

Nightmares POV

    I'm beginning to worry if he's alive or not. I hope he is or I might lock myself in my room and not come out for anything. I did this to him, I made him do this to himself but all I know is that its my fault.
    "Do you know when he's gonna wake up?" ink asked worriedly.
    "No....I don't" I said grimly.
    "Well he has to! I know he can!" dream said with a worried expression but with the feeling of determination.
    "I-I hope h-he's ok...." blue said tearing up and started crying. We went to cheer him up when we heard slight snores of someone. We all looked towards the direction it came from and found that cross was snoring softly.
    His breathing regulated and everyone yelped with relief as his chest went up and down to show his breathing. The snores dissipated and turned into quiet words while he slept. I came closer as the words got clearer. He spoke....
    "Nightmare....." he softly spoke in a slightly calling voice. I came closer and held his hand once again.
    "Yes, cross" I asked politely.
    "I love you......." he trailed off. I blushed at his statement. Did he really love me? But I called him annoying and only thought of him as a subordinate. I used him like a toy. He seemed so fragile and weak at the moment that I didn't want to touch anything else but his hand.
    His body was warm, a little too warm. It seemed like he had a fever. I got snapped out of my thoughts when I heard squealing from the other side of the bed. I looked over to see dream, blue and link all squealing like fan girls at a shipping party. The moment I frowned I could hear cross waking up again.
    He looked at me with the same eyes and sadness he had before. I leaned over and kissed his forehead which made his face turn into a deep dark purple. Cross hid his face with his other arm, attempting to hide his adorable blush. I chuckled and left his side for a moment.
    I grabbed the backs of the star san's and pushed them out of the hospital room to let me and cross have some time together. They didn't fight back, understanding the situation and leaving, unlike a group I know. I walked back to cross, he was still trying to cover his face with his arm and blushing. I removed his arm from his face and held his chin firmly.
    His face got darker as I got closer to him. We connected and he gasped in surprised, he soon kissed me back. We stayed liked that until the door opens. We separated with embarrassment. I looked over to the people who had opened the door and they were..well sh*t. It was horror, killer and dust. They grinned at us and came closer. They must think that i'm someone else, don't they. I turned into my gooey form and all the grins they were giving me faded into fearful frowns. "Ohhhhhh....wonderful seeing you here n-nightmare" dust said scratching at the back of his neck.
    "Yep, didn't know you'd be here" horror said, slouching over nervously.
    "Did you just kiss cross?" killer pointed out with only a little fear. Everyone went silent. Killer was the first to enter the room and see what they were doing. Cross was laying on his side and covering himself with the blanket in embarrassment.
    Dust mouthed 'killer, your a dead man' to killer and he gulped harshly, regretting what he said. I cracked my knuckles and began to run towards him. He squeaked and ran out as I chased him down the halls.....

Cross's POV

    Nightmare...kissed me. I couldn't believe it. I hid under the covers as someone tapped my shoulder. I peaked out from under the blanket and stared at dust that had a giant smirk on his face.
    "So, that senpai stuff wasn't a joke? How long has this been going on?~" he asked. A little bit of a teasing voice in his tone.
    "J-j-just now?" I wasn't sure if anything is going on yet. But I had to give him an answer or else he'll bug me about things like that.
    "Really? I thought king grumpy had a thing for you since you two first met" dust said with a giant smirk on his face.
    "W-what?"..........
