Angelica groaned at the lack of response and put on her mask, heading towards the front door. She rapidly knocked, crossing her hands over her chest as she waited, nervously eyeing the workers—family—in hopes that they weren't getting annoyed or were already annoyed.

At the 8th knock, there was a clicking nose, indicating that the door was being unlocked, and out came out a tall man with dirty blonde hair that stared down at her with an annoyed facial expression.

"I'm here," Dream mumbled tiredly and then did she notice his puffy eyes. He was asleep. "Come on."

He walked away and Angelica looked over her shoulder, giving the movers a thumbs up and received one back. They quickly parked and started grabbing her things, trying to dismiss her since she wanted to help, too.

"Ang, it's fine," her uncle, Fernando, chuckled, slapping her hands away. "Just try to relax. We don't want you to stress even more."

"Shut up," Angelica huffed, grabbing a box with her books. "Let's go."

Walking inside the house, Angelica, her uncle, and her cousin stared at the house in awe, clearly not used to this. They've always seen one from afar but being up close to a big house was even better.

"This way, Angelica," Dream called out from the top of the stairs, yawning. The three quickly followed and Dream opened a door to display a big, empty room. "This is your room. There's a bathroom there, closet, and if you want, there's a spare room next door if you want to use it for your computer and such. I don't care just... Do you. As long as you don't bother me, I don't care."

"Thanks..." Her voice trailed off as he walked passing by her uncle and cousin who he just nodded in salutation. But other than that, he said nothing else and his footsteps traveling down the stairs was the only thing heard.

"If you need a break from that ass, just calls us and we'll move you up to New York," Fernando said, gesturing to where Dream left when he said "ass." Angelica simply chuckled. "I'm being serious. He seems like a jerk."

"Now I know why you're always arguing with him," her cousin, Alex, shook his head. "It's always Florida people."

"Let's just bring everything in," Angelica shook her head, a smile on her lips, and she and her family went towards the truck to bring her stuff.

It took a couple of hours, but by the 4 hour mark hit, they had already finished setting up. She didn't have a lot of stuff since majority of the stuff she had, she had given it to the new neighbor who had lived across from her in the old apartment building that was having issues with purchasing furniture.

"Bye, Tio. Bye, Alex!"

"Bye!"

Heading off, Angelica turned to look down at her puppy who was nuzzling against her ankle. She warmly smiled and grabbed him, heading up towards her room and fixing some last minute stuff.

A knock from her door was heard and she quickly out on a mask, letting out a "come in" that alerted Dream from the other side. He looked around at her room, nodding, before passing her a a box.

"As a welcome present," he said, watching her open it.

Angelica happily gasped as soon as she opened the box, eyeing her strawberry shortcakes. She looked up at him and he eyed the her brown eyes, a mole on the corner of her eye, her eyebrows a bit messy and a couple of outgrown hairs, and he eyed the short hair that fell on her shoulders. He also noted that she wasn't as short as George had mentioned.

"Thanks," Angelica nodded, eyes wrinkling as she smiled widely underneath the black mask Corpse had given her. "Where's your cat?"

"Come on," Dream turned around before he eyed Gumbo sleeping on the floor, cutely cuddling against a stuff teddy bear. "Oh, my God. He's so cute."

"His name's Gumbo," Angelica told him, squinting her eyes at him as grabbed her dog, leaving the room. She followed after him downstairs and they didn't stop until he stopped in his basement.

"Patches!" Dream softly called. "Patches."

At the sound of its name being called, out came a cat that immediately headed towards Angelica. It had nuzzled against her ankle much like her dog did before.

"Patches?" Angelica leaned down to grab the cat, making sure that her mask was on. The cat quickly cuddled against her chest and Angelica's eyes widened just like Dream's. "She's so adorable!"

"Your dog is adorable," Gumbo placed his paws on Dream's face while Patches seemed to already be drifting off.

"I'm stealing your cat now."

"I'm stealing your dog now."
