I changed into my pajamas and crawled into bed. I let my mind wander as I fell asleep. Am I making the right choice? I hope so.

-Time skip to dream land-

After I fell asleep I appeared in a field of black roses. Interesting. I've never seen black roses before. "So have you made your choice yet Y/N?" I heard Nightmare's voice ask from behind me.

"Yes I have" I answer as I turn around to face Nightmare. "I've decided that I won't join you or your brothers team." After I gave my answer Nightmare seemed shocked. I'm confused, do I usually not make this choice? "I just don't want to be brought into this war between you and Dream. I want to go home and forget about this" I then mumbled "and find a new job".

"That wasn't the choice I was expecting. At least you aren't joining Dreams team." Nightmare said. "Now, you can go back but you will remember everything though."

I turn around again facing the field of black roses and sit down. "Why are we in a field of black roses?" I ask Nightmare. I get no response in return. Rude. Dream though, I need to tell him that I want to go back home. He's definitely going to ask why and I just can't go off saying something like 'Oh your brother offered for me to join his team and I thought about it and decided to not join his team or yours and go back home instead'. Can't do that because Dream would surely keep me in his hideout for fear that Nightmare would kidnap me or something and force me to join him. I don't think Nightmare would do that. But what would I tell Dream, Ink and Blue though. That I am homesick and I don't want to get caught up in the war between Dreams team and Nightmares team. But then Dream, Ink, and Blue would still keep me in the hideout cause Nightmare could still get to me. How will I get home? I could get help from Nightmare maybe. But he most likely doesn't know where the hideout is so how could he help me? Maybe Blue? He seems like he would be easy to get him to help me with some persuading.

Nightmare broke me out of my thoughts saying "I can read your mind you know. You are going to have to deal with getting home on your own, I'm not helping."

"Of course you're not." I mumble to myself.

"But..."

"But what?" I ask standing back up and turning around to face Nightmare once again.

"But if you join me I'll help you get home." Man that's tempting. I don't want to be pulled into this but I want to go home. But if I stay with Dream and his team I'm bound to still be pulled into this. There's no way out of this is there? I'll still be in this either way. Why does my life have to suck? When I was younger I wanted something to happen in my life that would be exciting, send adrenaline through my veins. This is not what I had in mind. If I stay with Dream I'd never be able to go home but if I go with Nightmare at least I'd be able to go home. I'll join Nightmare.

"I- I'll join you." I say hoping I've made the right choice.

"Good. Very good." Nightmare said.

A/N: am I doing good? I feel like this is not doing as well as when I started. Please tell me, am I still doing good?
