Part of me wants to ruin the story so Alice can be with Julius...
Nightmare: but I want Alice.
Me: I know you do but I love Julius. My heart is for him winning.
Nightmare: But he has you, Why cant I have Alice.
Me: Ok. I will try to not ruin it for you. You need some love too...
Alice was finally getting ready for bed after her long day of running and sitting. She was exhausted. She then suddenly remembered she didn't have anything to sleep in. Everything was left at the clock tower. She decided that maybe Nightmare could help her. She left the room and knocked on her neighbor's door.
"Yes, Alice?" Nightmare called. Alice then opened the door and entered the room. She found him lying on his bed in his pajamas. The shirt was white and silky with golden buttons going down the front. The bottoms were black silk. She blushed.
"S-sorry for intrud-"
"Oh. It's quite alright. I was hoping you would come over soon." She frowned.
"I-I only came over here because I don't have anything to sleep in." she mumbled.
"Oh… Hm… well…" He began to think. "The stores would already be closed so…." he got up and went to his dresser. "You think you can live with one of my large silk nightshirts for one night? It would hang like a dress on you." He laughed. She nodded and blushed, taking the shirt and leaving his room as fast as she could. "Good night sweetie." He called after her. "see you soon." He whispered to himself.
She changed into the shirt as soon as she got back to her room. It only hung mid-thigh on her, but it was only for one night. She just hoped nobody would see her like this. She climbed into the warm, plush bed.
"Hello, Alice." Nightmare said as soon as she entered the dream world. He was floating several feet from her in this dark space.
"Did I really fall asleep that fast…?" she mumbled to herself. Nightmare chuckled.
"You look very good in my nightshirt~." Nightmare cooed.
"What?!" Alice looked down to reveal that she was only wearing what she had fallen asleep in. "Nightmare! What did you do?!"
"Hm? Oh, I just wanted to see how cute you looked in my clothes." He smiled.
"I hate you…" She muttered. "Put me back in my normal clothes!" she yelled.
"Don't be like this, Alice. I think you look adorable."
"I don't care. It feels so awkward…. At least I'm getting a new dress tomorrow."
"I wish you could always wear that though." Nightmare pouted.
"But its soooo embarrassing." She said. "Why don't you just wear the shirt so I can have your pants?"
"Who ever said I wear anything under my pants?" He wagged his eyebrow.
"Ok, ok, ok. Just put me in my normal clothes now." He sighed.
"Fine…." Looking back up at Alice, Nightmare asked, "So… what do you think of Clover so far?"
"Well….. It's definitely not Hearts…." She mumbled.
"What is that supposed to mean?" Nightmare asked.
"Well… it doesn't feel like…. Home…."
"It will eventually. Just give it some time." Nightmare said, cheerfully. Alice frowned.
"So….. What's up with Gray?" She asked.
"Well… he is my loyal subordinat-"
"You know fully well that is not what I am asking."
"I think you should probably ask him yourself. I feel it isn't my place to tell." She sighed.
"Fine…. Well…. Is there anything else you want to talk about or can I get some good dreams in while I sleep…?"
"Are you saying spending time with me isn't a good dream?"
"It feels… awkward… and I spent all day with you."
"Fine. Good night Alice. I will see you in the morning~"
"W-wait!" she yelled out. "One last thing. If you see Julius…. Tell him he needs to remember to sleep and eat. I'm worried about him."
"I will make sure I relay the message if I see him." Nightmare smiled as his voice faded away. Alice then entered a new dream that Nightmare had created for her.
Julius: Did I hear my name?
Me: yes. A long long time ago. before this kind person started to read this chapter.
Julius: stop trying to force Alice on me when I have you. 1 weird girl is enough for me.
Me: i dont know if that is romantic or an insult...
