Silence - Morpheus x Reader HCS
Silence
Morpheus x dream!Reader headcanons
A/N: 'sup, fellas! If you read the comics you know that the Endless are not allowed to take mortals as lovers, and when Morpheus did that the sun destroyed her home and she killed herself (yeah)... so, to avoid unnecessary angst, I decided to make you, yeah, you! part of the dreaming, now how does that sound, huh?
p.s.: Btw, i'm not native in English so it might sound kinda weird lol
Warnings: Nothing, just a bunch of fluff and Morpheus self-sabotaging (as usual).
Initially, Morpheus created you as a dream. And in his opinion, you were his masterpiece.
He was so proud of you and your development. So proud of your kindness and beauty…
You were as much part of him as he was part of you.
At first, he thought it was only the fact that you were a creation of his that made him absolutely infatuated with you. Oh boy, how wrong he was.
The idiot thought his feelings would simply fade away with time! And then weeks became months and months advanced to aeons. Nothing changed.
Every time he saw you walking in the gardens of the Dreaming, hair flowing in the wind, skin kissed by the moonlight and a sweet smile on your lips, all sorts of phenomena would blossom in his being.
He detested not having restraint of his sentiments. But how could he, when he had such a magnificent creature so close?
But he was afraid. Afraid that his stoic self would intimidate you away. Afraid he could not love you as you deserved. Afraid he would hurt you.
So he kept his distance, always keeping an eye on you from the shadows. Always contemplating your grace.
Little did he know that you were cultivating feelings for him since the day air filled your lungs for the first time.
Every time you both talked, it was like being born again, with so many new sensations to explore and understand. So many confessions were done when you looked deep into his eyes… But words never came. Only silence.
Birds and trees were the witnesses to your secret love. The grass would engulf your tears of love as you cried intimately.
Certain day, when Morpheus was wandering calmly in the wilderness of the Dreaming, he heard a laughter that replenished his very soul with joy and serenity. It was your laughter. He always recognised your lovely sounds.
You had your feet in the river, appreciating the gentle waters and the jumps of the fishes.
Dream slowly approached, trying to not make too much commotion and destroy your moments of recreation, but it was futile, as you quickly noticed his presence, got up and bowed to him, with a soft "Your Majesty, what brings your lordship here? Can I help you?" leaving your lips.
Long minutes of utter silence came. Morpheus could only stare. Enthralled. All of his repressed feelings roared inside of him. He could not tolerate it anymore.
At that moment something snapped. He needed to do something… anything…
So, he came towards you, mysterious as always….cupped your cheeks and pressed his warm lips to yours.
You were shocked, absolutely speechless… it took you a moment to finally kiss back. And when you did kiss him back, oh, it was exactly how you visualized heaven to be like.
The kiss was intense, he felt like a thirsty man drinking the most flavorful juice any fruit could ever produce.
You tasted so sweet, like the most delightful honey possible. You smelled even sweeter, just how Morpheus expected.
"My lord, what… why?" Confusion took over your facial expressions.
"My dear one, I cannot hide my feelings for you anymore… Please, discount my aggressiveness… But it was the move of a lifetime." Inside of his eyes, you saw it… vulnerability, exposure, love… devotion.
"I desired this for so long, my love… You truly are the king of dreams… My greatest fantasy just turned into reality" You said exasperated, with tears of pure passion sliding down your cheeks.
With his thumb, Dream wiped away a lonely tear and smiled fondly.
"Beloved one, allow me to make all of your dreams come true, for all eternity…"
And with that, you sealed your lips together again. Making perpetual an unspoken promise between the two of you.
Wow, this one was wild! Hope you like this crappy thing! I hated it, but I gave my best and that's what came out of it, haha! Anyway, if it sounds weird, I'm not a native and blah, blah, blah! Comment if you desire! See you some other day!
