you sigh, looking around the cell you'd already been in one-hundred and one times. it still hasn't changed since the last time. still as boring as ever.
"i see you've kept yourself busy."
you grin at the voice, turning to look out the bars of your cell. you jump off the bed you were sat upon.
"well, that's all i can do while i wait for you," you hum. nightmare chuckles, unlocking the door to your cell. he's by your side in an instant, wrapping you in his arms as his tentacles dance around behind him, brushing against you every so often.
"i suppose it is," he replies, leaning in to nuzzle his teeth against your lips. you sigh, wrapping your arms around his neck as you return the affection.
he pushes you back onto a bed, the plushness alerting you to the fact you're no longer in the cell. he must have warped you to his room while you were otherwise distracted. your lips perk against his teeth at the fact, pulling him in only deeper.
"i missed you," you breathe against him when you finally pull away. your eyes open, inspecting every inch of his face, like you've done a million times before. "i hate that we can't be together all the time."
"i know, my dear." he buries his face in the crook of your neck, arms wrapping tighter around you. "but you know why we can't."
you hum, chewing your lip as you pet his skull. his chest rumbles against your own with a purr.
"but... why can't we?" you pose. nightmare hums in question. you prop yourself up on your elbows, pushing yourself away from him to look at his face. "i'm tired of having to play the kidnapped role. i'm tired of sitting in that cell until you can sneak me away from your henchmen. why can't you just tell them?"
"you know why i can't, dear."
"no, nightmare... you're their boss, they shouldn't get angry with your decisions." you protest.
he looks at you for a long time, his purr quieting until it eventually peters out. he pushes himself up, hovering above your lap. he reaches out to grab your face, cradling your cheeks in his hands gently.
"my love, you know it isn't that simple. we cannot chance them knowingโnot while you are still affiliated with my brother. you know how they are. one of them will slip up."
you groan, leaning in to rest your forehead against his. he chuckles, planting a quick kiss to your lips.
"do not pout," he teases. you only stick your bottom lip out dramatically in response. he snorts, shaking his head at your dramatics.
"i hate it when you're right," you grumble.
"no you don't~" he sings in response. you grin, rolling your eyes at him.
"yeah, you're right. i can't hate anything about you." your expression softens as you reach up, brushing your hand against his cheek. he nuzzles against you, closing his socket. his grin relaxes.
"i can't wait until i can love you without worrying about anything."
nightmare's tentacles fold around you, tucking you snuggly against himself.
"and i will wait a thousand moons until that day comes."
