Dream, I’m in Love with a Criminal

Pairing: (Romantic) Wilbur Soot x Fem! Reader, (platonic) Sapnap x Fem!Reader

Genre: In-game Au, Fluff, angst

Warnings: Cursing

Summary: Y/n tells Dream her secret after he catches her sneaking out of the Dream SMP lands. This takes place after the election where Techno lives with Tommy and Wilbur, but before Wilbur decides to be a villain.

This is so old, this is a draft that I never posted. I wrote this when I first joined the fandom, I started this in November, though I added some bits and pieces occasionally, you can probably see the difference in writing styles if you squint hard enough.

“Where are you going?” She stilled at her dark haired friends words, which she was certain were directed towards her. She slowly turned to face him, the netherite sword he held only served to intimidate her substantially.

“Hmm? Oh, I’m just going for a walk to clear my head Sap, I’m just on edge about everything that’s happened in L’man- Manburg,” she quickly caught her mistake, wondering how long it would be until he noticed something was off.

Sapnap chuckled darkly, “You aren’t the only one. Dream is losing his mind. As much as he hates people being free from his rein, he’s been saying ever since the election yesterday that he would much rather have Wilbur be in charge than Schlatt, he’s like a broken record,” his laugh became much lighter and amused as he finished, Y/n laughing slightly along with him.

“Hey, Sap, can I tell you something? It isn’t exactly a secret, but I would appreciate if you wouldn’t tell anyone.”

“Yeah, N/n, you can tell me anything, you’re one of my best friends, you know?” His tone was so unbelievably genuine, but that only made her heart ache more, it just added to the long list of reasons she couldn’t give in to Wilbur’s harrowing pleads for her to leave her current life behind.

Y/n hesitated, before trusting in what Sapnap told her, “Even if he’s my brother, Dream’s tyranny is so repulsive. If people want to be free, let them, they deserve it,” her sincere, dejected words and hurt smile broke his heart. He knew she was friends with Tommy, Tubbo, and Wilbur before they rebelled, and said brother had nearly killed them each countless times.

When a few tears slipped from her eye, he couldn't help but lunge forward, engulfing Y/n in a hug, "Please don't cry, please," she was surprised, she had never seen him like this. Sure sometimes he would get emotional, but never this much. She liked that he cared, but she found herself missing his usually sarcastic and bright demeanor. "You probably should go for a walk, just please, don't cry again, it hurts me too."

"I'm sorry. I won't cry anymore, okay?" She gave him a soft smile before returning the hug. "I'm gonna go now."

"Don't get hurt, or Dream's gonna have my head," Sapnap chuckled nervously, if she did get hurt then his statement would prove to be true.

"I wouldn't let him, trust me," Y/n reassured him, then waved as a wordless goodbye. 'That took longer than I thought it would, hopefully Wilbur didn't get bored waiting for me.' She walked while in sight of her best friend, then proceeded to sprint when she knew she was hidden by the spruce trees. She saw Wilbur and immediately ran faster, wanting so badly to be in his arms.

She slowed down, trying to catch her breath so she didn't pass out. She sat down against a tree right next to him. "Y/n? Are you okay?" She nodded and put her arms out gesturing for a hug. Wilbur just sat next to her and pulled her close to his chest. "You have no idea how much I've missed you, I haven't seen you in what feels like forever," god, did that accent give her so much serotonin.

"Did you cry though?" She said mockingly while looking up at his brown eyes which were filled with concern and his contradicting smirk.

“Y/n, did you cry because you couldn’t see me for so long?” He was concerned for her, but he was also very proud to have that effect on her.

“Well yeah, but that isn’t the only reason why, Sapnap and I had a little heart to heart about Dream, and how horrible of a person he is, and then one thing led to another and I started crying because this is all Dream’s fault, and if he wasn’t so controlling, you guys wouldn’t have left in the first place, and life would be fine, but no, looks like I have a piece of shit for a brother instead-” She ranted about her brother until she heard a familiar voice that didn’t belong to her lover.

“Well, I wouldn’t say it’s all my fault,” Y/n’s eyes widened in horror as she looked up into the tree next to the one she was sitting by only to see her madman of a brother sitting on a branch, “and calling me ‘a piece of shit’ is a little over the top, wouldn’t you think so, George?” He called to the man sitting on the branch on the other side of the tree. Y/n couldn’t help but notice Sapnap was nowhere to be seen.

“Yeah, maybe a little,” he was unsure whose side he should be on. Dream is his best friend, but Y/n is right, his oppression is so disturbing, he shouldn’t be able to treat people like that and yet he still does.

George's thought process was shut down by an arrow piercing Dream's forearm. No one there knew what was happening except the blonde boy who shot the arrow and the pink haired man standing a few metres behind him, “Tommy are you insane?!”

“Whatever he is, we have to go.” Wilbur stood up and so did Y/n. He grabbed her hand and sprinted towards Pogtopia, immediately rushing down the steps and into a well-hiden room in the renovated ravine, “I don’t think Tommy or Techno even know this room exists, so we can be alone for once.”

Y/n sighed and sat on a bed in the corner of the room. She made grabby hands at Wilbur, wanting him to cuddle with her. He smiled and flopped onto the bed, wrapping his arm around Y/n’s waist.

“I love you. Sorry for bringing you into this chaotic life of mine.” He smiled warmly, brushing a strand of hair behind her ear.

“Don’t apologize, Wil. You know I love it.”
