Peaceful Power

Valentines day.

Klaus didn't care for it nor understand it.

If you truly loved your person then why did you need a special day to prove it? Every day should be valentines day.

But Y/n loved love so much that something about valentines day was so magical for her.

She was a very calm soul.

Despite being a witch in New Orleans, her patience and compassion was everlasting. They were traits that Klaus deeply admired and was eternally grateful for. Not many people would be so tolerant of him.

She offered other methods to settle his rage.

The first few times he found it silly and embarrassing when they would sit on his art room floor, gentle music in the background as they closed their eyes and meditated until they felt the weight of the day lift off from their shoulders.

She had made him playlists of songs that she knew he would like and were peaceful enough to settle his nerves when he should need to.

A few times he had let her guide him through a yoga routine or two however those sessions almost always ended up with him testing just how many positions he could actually get her into before she was too exhausted for him to carry on.

She was his serenity.

So when she had expressed her passion for valentines day, he knew he couldn't disappoint her. Not that he believed there was a way to disappoint her at this point.

Now Klaus was quite romantic anyway, his main love language was gift giving and acts of service followed closely behind so he wasn't too sure how to really impress her.

However if there was something Klaus was known for it was his dramatic flare.

It was because of this that Y/n found herself blindfolded and wearing noise cancelling headphones while sat in fist class while Klaus stroked her hair and fed her the over priced airplane food. He would of course lift her headphones to whisper to her throughout the flight to ensure she was sated, thankfully Y/n was just fine with the arrangement and rather excited for where they were wind up.

He kept her covered right until he got her to their hotel.

Only when he had her stood on the balcony with the view of the sea before did he allow her senses to return.

A glowing smile lit up her face at the sight and she quickly spun around to face Klaus. He beamed back at her, chuckling when she leaped into his arms and wrapped herself around him like a koala. His grin grew as she repeatedly kissed his face and he spun her around playfully until she dropped her legs back down and leaned over the balcony pointing at the beach excitedly.

"It's so beautiful!" She gasped but he wasn't looking at the landscape, he was just looking at her. "Where are we?" she whispered, her soft voice expressing her astonishment.

"Italy" he answered with a smile as she turned to face him in amazement, "Amalfi Coast to be exact" he added and she squealed.

"For how long?" she asked excitedly and he shrugged

"For as long as you would like" he told her simply and she practically bounced where she stood.

Klaus eventually coaxed her into the hotel room, surprising her further as she was overwhelmed by the valentines theme spread throughout the apartment.

Heart shaped balloons rest in the corners of each room, pink and red candles made the hotel smell heavenly and a sweet little meditation area was set up in the lounge. Their bedroom was covered in heart shaped pillows and roses. Y/n was expressing her appreciation all night before finally resting, her mind filled with anticipation of what would come the following day.

Morning arrived and they spent valentines day on the water, giggling and smiling as they spotted dolphins and reached their hands into the sea to see the fish shimmer. Klaus braided her hair and gradually slotted more and more little flowers into the strands as they day went by.

They ate at a sweet little place just down the road from where they were staying before heading to a cocktail bar and finally laying against the coast, watching as the sun hid below the ocean line and the moon slowly found its way to the top.

"I've always loved the moon" Y/n whispered softly, looking at Klaus from where her head lay on his chest. "It's so peaceful but so powerful, you know?"

"Just like you" he uttered and her heart melted

Klaus's gaze remained on her as her cheeks blushed rose and her eyes softened to the point where he worried that he had made her cry. A singular tear slipped past her eyes before she kissed his lips and tucked her head under his chin comfortably.

"I love you" she mumbled, her voice weak as he wrapped his arms around her and nuzzled the top of her hair.

"I love you so much more, my little valentine"

part 12 (valentine special)

“heya nighty-“

“shut up already!” nightmare started walking faster, trying to avoid killer’s presence.

“oh come on! We were chatting just now- don’t make that pouty face!” killer purred, but the other didn’t seem to bother

“if you can call a one sided conversation chatting then yes, I was “chatting” with you-“ he frowned, but killer’s grin stayed the same, although his expression softened a bit more

“if you say so night, but I just wanted to show you a place you might like” he whined, but nightmare only shrugged “like I’d follow a vampire like you—“

“hey! That’s kind of insulting you know! Not all vampires drag you to a dark place to murder you!” he crossed his arms, but nightmare just chuckled back “that’s considering the fact that some actually DO. What makes you different then?”

Killer paused, but grinned back “because I wouldn’t kill a friend like you.”

Nightmare stopped walking

No one ever wanted to become his friends, as he was sheltered from every group of kids that the small village had, and was later ignored by other teenagers then pushed away by adults, so knowing someone cared really was…unusual

Unusually heartwarming

“…” nightmare stayed silent for a while, and killer started worrying- did he say something wrong???

“where do you want to go then?” he sighed, but killer let out a small gasp of joy then grinned

“it’s kind of far from here— do you want to fly or would you rather walk?” nightmare pondered- he couldn’t fly? Oh- he meant carrying him-

He normally would refuse the offer right away. Flying would be too dangerous and taking the risk was stupid, but…he couldn’t help but hesitate this time

The idea sounded…..kind of nice

But he obviously didn’t agree to it in the end

“we’ll just walk there, not that difficult” nightmare said before letting killer lead the way

“okay then, I need you to close your eyes first.”

“w-what? you never mentioned I’d have to be guided like this- So now I’m trusting you at face value to lead me into the woods to a place I don’t even know? I’m not the type who just follows a stranger who happened to have a candy” he growled, but killer let out

“so I’m a stranger to you?”

He sounded offended, but nightmare jerked up “no- I just! i…” he wasn’t sure what to say, but killer just continued “if you really don’t trust me enough to do it, I won’t force you… I just-“

His voice lowered even more, as if he was talking to himself. and his smug attitude that vanished a while ago was replaced with a disheartened look

“I just wanted to make you a little happy”

Nightmare froze, but still managed to breathe out

“i- it’s not like that! I was wary because-“ he inhaled and prepared himself for what he was about to say, then continued “because no one ever tried to be my friend! I just- don’t know why- how should I act?” he shivered.

Nightmare didn’t like showing his weaknesses; mostly because whenever he did back then, people used it to hurt him, but each time he did with killer, he received nothing but care and compassion from the other. Something deep inside forced him to accept the truth

He was way more than a stranger to him

“I’m sorry…” nightmare whimpered, but killer held out his hand and interrupted him

“you don’t have to do anything and you shouldn’t act any different. Nothing has to change if you don’t want to- all I’m asking for is that you trust my intentions.” He smiled softly, and the other paused before gently taking his hand and closing his eyes

“…I trust you”

Killer grinned. Too bad the other had his eyes closed because he finally managed to make the other flustered

He wasn’t lying when he said it was a long way to go

but nightmare didn’t really mind it that much

“how do you know so much about potions?!” night gasped. He never had someone who had such knowledge about the subject and didn’t call it names. Dream would listen to him of course, but he understandably didn’t know much about it a lot, though killer arguably knew even more than he did-

“well… I do have lots of free time on my hand! Magic has always been so mysterious to me, I couldn’t help but try and figure out some stuff, right? And I mean, I always thought I could find a way to get even more powerful” he grinned, but the other couldn’t see that

“huh- why do you want to get more powerful? I mean, aren’t you already pretty strong as a vampire?”

“….” killer stayed silent for a bit before he spoke up; he didn’t really think his words through did he-

“well, I don’t mind telling you about it…since you opened up to me as well” nightmare perked up; what did he mean?

killer wasn't exactly ready for this, but he talked anyways

“…… I wanted to be a vampire- I wasn’t forcefully bitten, I asked to be…” he started, and nightmare flinched; he never thought anyone wanted to turn into one before-

“I didn’t have anyone back then, I only had my brother. So when I knew he was murdered I didn’t know what to do- i was mad at first; I hated vampires with all my soul, I searched for a way to make them pay for years, and my thoughts landed on spells and curses. i had hope that I could bring him back, but I later started feeling alone— so horribly alone; I wished for someone to be there, for care; and my wish was kind of granted in the end…but at what cost? People started paying attention to me, but not in the way I thought they would…”

“they called me a demon because I turned into an empty shell devoid of emotions. they called me a monster because I just couldn’t stand smiling anymore. They called me a vampire because I was alone…”

his grip on night’s hand got tighter, but the other didn’t mind at all, as he squeezed it a bit more as well to show his support, which killer did end up acknowledging.

“…I ended up despising everyone- I was shunned from the village, kicked out of it because…I don’t even know why— yes, I wasn’t as talkative as I used to be, yes I also lost my original magic in an accident when I tried to create a potion, yes I was still grieving the loss of my only family, but did it make me a monster? Funny that my race actually is one-

“the insults, the hits, the hurt- I kept everything bottled up, until I snapped”

“I wanted to have my revenge, and someone tried to help me.” His voice softened when he took a glance at nightmare- he looked worried, but he kept his eyes closed

“I turned into a vampire, and now I’m immortal- I did get my revenge but what now? I lost my dear sibling- I…I tried to search for a way to bring him back to life but- I couldn’t no matter how hard I searched-“ killer’s eyes burned, so he blinked, and as soon as he did a tear rolled down his cheek, but he didn’t bother wiping it, since nightmare couldn’t see him crying anyways

“…I got a little dark here didn’t i?” he let a shaky giggle out, and finished “…it was supposed to be a fun trip”

Nightmare stopped walking, and as soon as the other noticed he gave him the tightest embrace he could, which caught killer off guard.

“guess we both have some ‘brother problems’ then-“ nightmare chuckled lightly, and killer smiled tenderly.

“you’re still closing your eyes?”

“well- we haven’t arrived yet, and you didn’t tell me to open them.” He stated the obvious, but killer laughed

“you were about to bump yourself into that tree- but yeah, you can open them now”

Nightmare slowly opened his eyes, and was surprised to find a bunch of glowing flowers forming a circle around them. The trees that grew around left an opening right in the middle, which left a beautiful scenery with the starry night above their heads.

But the thing that really caught his attention was the rose that killer held outwards

……….

“…are you serious-“ he frowned, but his face lightened up with a bright purple hue

“do I look like a women for you to court me with flowers?!” he growled, but the blush grew even brighter

“what? You don’t like flowers?” he smirked, and nightmare just wanted to melt on the floor out of shame

“shut it! What’s that supposed to mean?!” nightmare bitterly answered, but killer just smiled

“I just gave you a flower?”

“don’t act like you just gave me a flower!!”

“didn’t i?”

“that’s not my POINT!!!” his face was getting way to purple, and killer chuckled when the other just slapped away the poor rose that fell to the floor

“you better leave—“he growled

“aww- me who thought you’d be happy!” he whimpered

“and you better not bring me another one next time!��

“wow- you really are a psychic nighty! How did you guess?” he winked, and the other just chased him away until he flew off

“…..” nightmare stayed silent until he was sure the other left before slowly losing his composure on the floor

“this idiot- this stupidly handsome and nice god damn idiot-“ he tried acting angry, but in reality he was over ecstatic- the muffled giggles were definitively a sign of that

“…should i….keep it?” he asked himself as he slowly picked up the rose from the ground

“…only an idiot would fall for him”

He slid the flower into his pocket

.....

“…I’m such an idiot”

********

Dream walked in the cold forest shivering

But he wasn’t feeling cold

Though the crying was probably the reason.

‘oh god- I don’t want to stay there— I don’t want to go back to that village again! Please- I’ll do anything— tell me there’s a way to avoid this-‘

he felt his soul slowly corrupting again, but he knew he still had some days before it did completely.

He wiped his tears quickly; he obviously didn’t want cross to see him like this- and it was the last day where he could go out freely. His last chance to tell cross about what he wanted to talk about

Though something in him knew that he wouldn’t muster up the courage to do so in the end

“you look horrible today dream, no offence” a whisper caught him off guard, causing the other to jump away. “c-cross???”

The other smiled softly “I didn’t know you were coming…I would’ve brought something” his smile got wider, showing his sharp and mesmerizing fangs.

At least dream thought they were

“oh- y-you don’t need to! Besides, I was just wondering if we could have a walk together…one last time this month” his expression got darker on the last part, but cross already got the message before it got awkward

“…..hey- do you want to go somewhere in particular? Or did you want to do anything beforehand?” cross insisted that he was going to save him from his fate, but he wanted to at least lift his spirits a little

“w-well…” the other trailed off; did he? There wasn’t a place he wanted to go to that really was anything special…but-

“…it’s kind of silly” he giggled- “it’s only a legend but….”

“I really want to get to the top of mount ebbot!”he beamed

Cross stayed silent for a while, giving him confused looks

“…no one climbed to the top of it, and there’s a legend that says that when you get to it you’ll find the greatest fruits and plants, and the prettiest flowers and roses that you’ve ever seen! I just…wanted to check it out a long time ago, but the thing is that it’s not really a cone, but a straight mountain. If you want to climb it…it’s a bit more difficult since gravity isn’t really on your side-“

“no need for climbing”

Dream perked up. Cross got the signs: he wanted to fly with him again.

“well, this time the distance is quite big- do you think you can handle that?” he stretched, just in case his bones get sloppy

“no need to ask me if it’s you” dream’s grin was so wide cross’s face got tinted with a light blush that he tried to hide as much as he could

“h-heh- let’s just get going then!” he shrugged as his wings spread open. Dream still wasn’t used to how breathtaking that sight was, but instead of staring with his mouth wide open like last time, he tried to calm himself down and smiled a little wider than before, he had to admit- cross did look really handsome

really handsome

Wait why was he thinking about that just now! Doesn’t matter…

He didn’t even have time to walk to him that he was already in his arms flying-

What a ride

“hey dream- I meant to ask but, do you have any relatives still alive? I think you mentioned a brother before-“ he hummed, but dream froze- if he could get any colder with how freezing the air was because of the altitude, he would die of hypothermia.

“um- yeah… about that…” he chuckled nervously, hoping the other changed the subject, but he sadly wasn’t always reading his thoughts, so he had to answer anyways “I hope you don’t mind me blabbering-“ the other gave him a nod of approbation.

“i do- but..." his grip on cross tightened a little

"….it’s been such a long time since I’ve last seen my brother…does he even remember me? Does he even care…? I don’t know…I DON’T want to know— this curse has been his years ago, and now it’s my turn to suffer the consequences of it”

He paused for a bit then continued

“we used to be so close….i’d always try to make him happy, but I never really succeeded- actually, I didn’t even notice how sad he was before- always hiding from others, I just thought he might be insecure…”

“i really tried to convince the villagers that he was an amazing person! That he never meant harm- that he was the most useful out of us both! they thought I was the one who practiced magic spells and provided them safety but it was all the work of my sibling. No matter how hard I would try to explain them that I was in fact useless, that they should try liking my brother more, they never listened. They were convinced I was only saying all those words to cover for my brother”

“but suddenly, one day…magic stopped. Nightmare refused to protect the soul of our deceased mother anymore, and even if I did disagree with his decision, I wasn’t exactly mad at him for it either. What would it cost if they stopped? He was tired of it, but I didn’t know about the bullying, so I begged him to change his mind, knowing our mother will be really displeased by that, though if I knew about all the hurt they’ve inflicted on him, I wouldn’t even say a thing- I would’ve moved out from that place with him. If only he told me about those times, but he didn’t, and he didn’t agree on protecting the soul either”

“the villagers went insane, and captured me; pleading me to help them, to save them from the vampires, to use my ‘supposed’ magic to protect them again, but I obviously couldn’t: I didn’t have the ability to do so. But…but then they stopped being polite and started threatening me; telling me they would harm my brother if needed, but I just couldn’t do anything- what was I going to do? I can’t do magic!”

“They….almost killed him- almost killed me too— but my brother saved me, with the only way he had, he casted a spell…on himself. The full moon on that day turned blue, and he became a beast with only slaughter and blood thirst in mind. In the end he did end up getting me out of there, but I tried my best to save him to no avail….if only I had been attentive in his magic and spell lessons…maybe he wouldn’t have lived in pain, maybe he wouldn’t have spent years in that corrupted self, maybe he wouldn’t have bit me…maybe I wouldn’t have almost left the living world forever…maybe we’d still be together….”

He didn’t notice that tears were rolling down his face, nor did he see that cross was wiping them away with his non dominant hand, the other one busy trying to hold dream in place before he fell from his grip.

“…hey- hey- it’s okay. You shouldn’t be worried, it’s going to be alright. Are you scared he isn’t alive anymore? I’m sure he is. He gave you his curse, nothing here says that he’ll die of it."

"Besides, if he really masters magic, wouldn’t he be able to defend himself anyways? And hey, I’m sure he misses you too- didn’t he curse himself to save you? Don’t you think he’s trying to do so now? I’m sure there’s a solution to all of this; all curses have cures right? Don’t be sad” he tightened his grip on him to show affection, and dream almost busted out crying, only from cross’s words this time

“p-please cross, it’s no use-“ there wasn’t fur on this coat this time, but he still nuzzled his chest, searching for comfort, which was thankfully given to him in the end

“…I was better off silent” he sniffled

“what are you talking about? I’m sure you needed to talk to someone about stuff like this. Don’t you feel a bit better spitting everything out?” cross smiled, and dream blushed, a sincere smile on his face

“yes- kind of a lot actually” he giggled “talking with you always makes me feel better” he wasn’t in mood for hiding or rephrasing his thoughts, who cares if he knew about his crush anyways?!

Well, he wouldn’t go as far as confessing now but hey

Cross’s blush was the thing that brought him back to reality though- okay, maybe he’d have to be a bit more subtle about it…

“the weather is getting a bit colder-“ dream shivered. His coat was definitively not enough to warm himself up, but cross chuckled

“I would give you my coat, but my hands are full as you can see- again, too bad I’m cold blooded; cuddling wouldn’t do you any favors” he sighed, but dream’s mischievous face made him feel slightly afraid of that statement

“is that a dare?”

Oh no

“w-well would you look at that! We arrived-“ cross felt like that was a blessing more than anything, so he paced up a bit more to land softly on the ground and letting dream get out of his grasp

“woah- feels dizzy” he rubbed his forehead in pain, but cross just explained “you’ll get used to it once you fly more—“

Dream stopped

That’s implying they’ll fly together more!

His face suddenly felt like burning, and cross looked concerned, not realizing his words…yet

“Hey dream! Are you okay? You look pretty bad” really.

“did you catch a cold? Your face is getting pretty hot” he crouched on his level, but dream decided to get out of that situation F A S T

“no no no- just excited to be here! I mean….wait-“ he turned around to see the supposed beautiful scenery, but all he found was a bland décor, some rocks and a bit of grass and moss growing here and there.

“i- I’m….disappointed.” dream ended up exhaling. What did he expect? That was just some legend made up by who knows who- there was theoretically a very small chance that it was even true to begin with

“…man I really just wasted our time-“ dream whimpered. He turned around to face cross when he noticed that the other was laughing softly to himself.

“oh- are you sure there’s nothing here?” his smile got wider, and it took dream a second to not get distracted by it

“huh?” he tilted his head, but cross held out his hand

“I think you might want to follow me then.”

Dream didn’t know what the other was talking about, but he took the other’s hand immediately, without a single doubt

He had no reason to doubt him anyways

And that just made cross’s soul skip a beat

“where are we going ?” dream was confused, but he quickly noticed a very thin path…

One step wrong and he’d fall into the emptiness

He shivered, and cross noticed

“if you are scared, we can still go back. But if you insist, you can close your eyes.”

Dream pondered; he wasn’t sure closing his eyes would do him any good, but cross was holding him tightly. The only reason he didn’t ask him to lift him was because their weight would probably make the other loose his balance, or worse, make the rocks collapse.

“i-“

He got a hold of himself before closing his eyes

“go ahead”

Cross stayed silent- the other’s total trust was baffling. He didn’t even deserve that much coming from dream! People betrayed him his whole life- he wouldn’t want to trust people that easily if it were to be him

Yet

He still did

he tried to stop his blush from spreading, but he was glad dream had his eyes closed, otherwise, he would have a good laugh

“okay….ready?”

He inhaled “yes!”

Cross smiled, here we go

……

………

…………..

……………….?

Dream didn’t feel his feet walking anywhere, actually; he didn’t feel like he was on the ground anymore

His breath got hitched- what?

He tried to stay calm until he felt the ground again

“wHAT WAS THAT” he gasped, his eyelights getting smaller. but as soon as he got to see his surroundings, they quickly switched into starry ones

“…woah”

The cliff had a waterfall with its water glowing bright blue. Multiple flowers were growing around, and some impressive and beautiful trees were decorating its sides

Dream stayed still for some time before he noticed that he didn’t see cross anywhere nearby, but as soon as he tried to call for him, the other whispered

“sorry, I forgot to tell you about that…”

He turned around, and was surprised to see cross holding what seemed like a bouquet of flowers. Some were golden and the others were echo flowers.

Dream’s breath was speeding up, and he felt heat rise up to his cheeks

“wha-“

“guess I’m late, but I still wanted to give you a little something at least” he smiled nervously

“happy valentine”
