TW: Slight angst, Urine, Seizure

Sapnap POV

   I had a dream, it was of me and Karl singing at a karaoke bar, and we sang the song "Mr Brightside." The dream was weird but it got weirder when at the end of it he had kissed my cheek. I know this seems a little blunt but I remember dancing with him until he kissed me.
I'm not into Karl like that, but I didn't hate the idea of him kissing my cheek.
I shook it off quickly as I slipped on a black windbreaker hoodie and I changed into black joggers. Karl was changed into a navy blue sweater and he wore a collared shirt under, he wore a pair of khakis with them too.
Damn, he looked cute.
What the hell?!
We ran downstairs, it was 8:21, the party started a half hour ago. I quickly slipped my vans on and Karl hurried to get his purple high top converse, the purple matched the mark wrapping my stomach.
He got in the drivers side and Karl hooked the car up to his phone's bluetooth. Karl quickly turned on shuffle on his music and Mr Brightside started playing, and Karl was singing with it.
I quickly paused it and hit shuffle again.
"Hey, why'd you do that?" Karl whined
"That song, it's just evil. I mean it's a good song and I like it but we can't listen to it right now. Can you play something different?"
"Aww does Mr Brightside scare you, sappynappy?" Karl teased, his eyes glaring playfully into mine.
"No, just let's play some Taylor Swift." I immediately turned the song "You belong with me" on. And no words from Karl, he immediately sang to it. Karl finally pulled out of his driveway as the song was on half volume yet was bumping his speakers.
We pulled up to Quackity's house, on Fort Baker Street, and it being just seniors here, there were multiple cars lining the road and you could hear the music from inside, praise god Quackity doesn't have any neighbors.
Karl looked amazed at all the cars he drove by, "Dude, what the honk, are these all of the seniors from our school? There has to be some juniors in here somewhere. This is crazy."
"Not gonna lie, this is hella intimidating." I shuddered through a laugh as I looked through the window. There were bright colorful lights and loud Travis Scott music.
I like parties, yeah, but it's been a long while since I've gone to one. I just hope this won't be too much for us.
"We'll be alright, and hey maybe you'll meet a pretty girl." Karl gave me a look, as he parked along the side of the road behind Dream's van.
"Why would I want to meet a pretty girl? I got too much shit I gotta handle, and besides I have you. Why would I date anyone else if you're my soulmate?" I watched Karl brush through his hair.
"Fair point, but you don't like me like that." Karl turns the car off and pulls down the mirror and checks himself out.
"Yeah, but still, it sounds pretty selfish to meet a pretty girl just to tell them you have a soulmate that you're best friends with."
"Yeah, I get that. Anyways, George and Dream are in the car behind us, let's walk in with them, yeah?" Karl suggests grabbing the door handle.
"Sounds good." I get out of the car and I watch Karl lock it and we walk towards Dream and George's car.
I think we saw something we weren't supposed to... We walked to them and through the front window Dream was kissing George.
"Uh..." Karl looked at me brightly with a laughing smile.
"Hold on, Karl." I went to the passenger side and I knocked on the window, Which caused George to jump and Dream to shake his head.
"What the hell?!" Dream lowered the window and I looked back at Karl who was giggling like a little kid.
"You two do know that the party is inside right?" I said as George's face flushes up.
"Sapnap, you suck dick." Dream insults, his embarrassment showed through but the insult was playful.
"Not as much as George, I assume." Karl says out of nowhere causing me to laugh my head off.
"What the hell?! Karl?!" Dream shouted with annoyance as he half wheezed.
"I mean yall do know y'all can make out with each other at home right?" I leaned in the passenger window as Karl came over to get the view I was getting.
"Hey, you best remember I can expose you real quick regarding your romantic life." Dream snaps and I quickly had my mouth drop.
"Wait- What romantic life are you hiding, Sapnap?" George asks curious but teasingly.
"Nope, I'll drop it, We ain't gotta go there." I quickly saw Karl who was giggling with a hand over his mouth.
"That's what I thought, Nicholas." Dream sneered.
"Oh shut it, Clay." I rolled my eyes, as Karl leaned onto my shoulder.
"Hey wait I wanna know about your romantic life now! Wait I feel excluded!" George whined, I rolled my eyes before George looked at Karl. "Wait do you know about this?"
"Yeah, I know a bit of it." Karl teased.
"This isn't fair!"
"We'll tell you eventually," I laughed before backing away so they could get out of the car.
"Hey can y'all not tell people that we're like uh, a thing." Dream more seriously says to Karl and I.
"Of course, yeah y'all are safe with us." Karl says quickly before taking a breath, "Do you think we could all somewhat stay together? This is the biggest party I've ever been to."
"I wasn't planning on leaving your side anyways but sure." I laughed. Karl looked excited but I knew this party was probably scary for him.
"Oh don't worry, We'll be near y'all, We are also kind of intimidated by this party." George speaks up, as his arms brushed against Dream's. It was cute seeing them together yet I know they were trying to be discreet.
"Alright, lets stop standing here like dumbasses and let's get in there." I tugged at Karl and we bagan walking with our heads held high, we were all excited, the party looked killer and it's been forever since a good party.
Dream opens the door and I follow to see different colored lights in each room. I looked to my left and there the living room had two couches pushed against the wall as people were dancing to the current song. The room was big so they could fit a whole but load of dancing teenagers. We looked to the kitchen and low and behold there were red solo cups and multiple two liters of soda. We all seem to look around for Quackity, but he wasn't there. I headed to the back door and there were lights strung around and tiki lamps lit. There were speakers outside as well so we could hear the music. There was a fireplace near the table and chairs down the yard. I see people playing badminton and I saw a familiar kid with a black hoodie.
"Hey Bad!" I shout I see his head turn and his eyes gleam as he smiles.
"Sapnap! Karl!" He greeted me with a hug and went to Karl to do the same, I watched Skeppy come up behind him and hug him around the waist.
Bad had a huge teal mark on the side of his face, and Skeppy had a red mark on the side of his face as well.
"Hey Skeppy!" Karl waves before putting his hands into the pockets of his khakis.
"I didn't take Badboyhalo to be the type of guy to enjoy this kind of party!" I laughed, nudging Skeppy in the arm.
Me and Bad have known each other since kindergarten and have always been pretty good friends, he's a sweet hearted kid, and it's funny because we call him Badboyhalo for the irony because he isn't bad at all. He's one of the most PG people I know, but people admire him for that and people playfully tease him for it, Quackity being the main one to pick on Bad, but they were good friends so it never seemed to get to him too much.
"Well, I don't go to too many parties, but Quackity wanted me here and I knew Skeppy wanted to go so I went with them." Bad smiled as Skeppy kissed the side of Bad's cheek.
"Cool, uh have y'all happened to see Quackity?" Karl asks as he scratches his head nervously.
"He's at the fireplace with Wilbur." Skeppy speaks up as he pulls his hood up resulting in his hands leaving Bad's body, which Bad looked confused until he saw him adjusting his hoodie.
"Ok, thank you, and we'll talk to y'all later." I grab Karl's hoodie and we walk towards the fire place where the two boys sat, Wilbur with his guitar, Quackity with just his LAFD hoodie looking at the strumming Wilbur in awe of his work.
"Hey, what's going on over here?" I say, walking up to Alex, quickly dapping him up.
"Ayy I'm glad you two came! Come sit, we're just jamming." Quackity says motioning us towards the log benches.
"What song are you strumming?" I look to Wilbur, he smiles his perfect white smile.
"Just a bit of Mr Brightside around the campfire." Wilbur says taking his pic and twirling it between his fingers.
Why this song? This song is everywhere today.
"Ooo I love that song, it's a staple jam." Karl says looking to me mischievously, what is happening.
"It is, it is, why don't y'all sing it with us?" Wilbur suggests you the three of us. I rolled my eyes, it won't do any harm, it's just a stupid song.
"You don't have to tell me twice." Karl adds, receiving a small chuckle from me that slipped. The fire was cracking and lighting our area. The flame's flickering light bounced perfectly on to the guitar as Wilbur started to strum the beginning.
"Coming out of my cage"
Wilbur starts on, Karl and Quackity quickly picking up the queue.
"And I've been doing just fine
Gotta gotta be down
Because I want it all" The three sing.
I sit there and stare at the guitar slightly bopping my head to it.
"It started out with a kiss
How did it end up like this?
It was only a kiss, it was only a kiss."
I started cracking up the way Karl exaggerated a crying voice at that part, and what made it funnier was Wilbur also pretending to cry once Karl started.
"Now I'm falling asleep
And she's calling a cab
While he's having a smoke
And she's taking a drag
Now they're going to bed
And my stomach is sick"
The three sing, very into it, yet still throw laughs and faults into the song by their smiles.
Karl looked to me and punched me in the arm, I looked to his ivory eyes. "You better sing with us."
I mean, it's just a dumb song, and it's just a dumb dream. And besides this is nothing like my dream. "Idk about that one."
The others excluding Karl sang on;
"And it's all in my head
But she's touching his chest now"
"Nope, you're singing now." Karl immediately jumps in the song, still staring into my eyes, how could someone this pretty be so intimidating in only a second.
"He takes off her dress now" They sing, Karl intently staring into my soul.
"Let me go" They sing, Quackity giving it his all.
Screw it.
"Hey Karl I mean this next lyric." I say before exaggerating
"And I just can't look, it's killing me" I sang by myself as the others cut up laughing, not being able to sing the, it's taking control part. Karl shoves me playfully.
"Oh shut the honk up with that you nimrod." Karl laughs
"Here we go guys get ready!" Wilbur says quickly before the chorus. We all hyped ourselves up quickly before jamming out.
"Jealousy, turning saints into the sea
Swimming through sick lullabies
Choking on your alibis
But it's just the price I pay
Destiny is calling me"
We all sing, with probably two bad voice cracks covered up by the four of us screaming the lyrics to the song.
"Open up my eager eyes
'Cause I'm Mr. Brightside"
Karl got up and jumped around pointing to himself for that point. He's a performer.
"I'm coming out of my cage
And I've been doing just fine
Gotta gotta be down
Because I want it all"
I watch Karl dancing and sing slash scream as Wilbur played the guitar messily but just perfect to match the moment. I began to think of how the dream went.
I was at a karaoke bar, Karl was there tugging me to the stage to sing. He wore a purple color blocked hoodie, and I was wearing my white tee with a fire emblem on it. We had gone up to the small stage and the bar was filled with no one, and yet there was applause. The song rolled up and we sang along, and Karl and I were singing whilst looking at each other. the song blurring in the background and everything turned to silence. The song finished short weirdly, and all noise went silent and Karl hugged and kissed my cheek with soft lips right as we walked off stage.
I felt my face heat up, as I snapped back into reality, I felt my cheek with my hand, Karl hadn't kissed me there. But it felt so real, that I want to think he did.
"But she's touching his chest now
He takes off her dress now
Let me go
'Cause I just can't look,king control"
They all sing, but I'm not paying attention to their voices much. I focused on Karl as the warmth of the fire flooded my bones as the light would bounce off of Karl's face.
"Jealousy, turning saints into the sea"
I sing with them before getting yanked by Karl, as he quickly got me to my feet and he grabbed my hand.
"Let's dance, Sapnap!" Karl exclaimed as he took me around the log bench for safety reasons.
"Swimming through sick lullabies
Choking on your alibi."
We sang and danced, Karl was just jumping in a circle with my hands in his.
"But it's just the price I pay"
Karl dramatically let go of one of my hands and fell out with his arm up to the air then bringing it to his chest as he really got into that lyric. It made me laugh though.
"Destiny is calling me"
He regroups with me grabbing my hand again and jumping in a circle.
"Open up my eager eyes
'Cause I'm Mr. Brightside"
He let go of my hands and I followed his lead as we leaned in and had our hand on our hearts as we screamed that at each other.
Wilbur stops the guitar and we all have a good laugh before Karl sits back down on the bench heavily breathing.
"Woo! That was a good Jam sesh." Wilbur laughed as we all looked at Karl.
"I am so outta breath, do you know how hard it is to scream a sing while jumping up and down in a circle? " Karl heaves our as we crack up.
"Then why'd you make us jump in a circle?" I asked, Karl quickly out his hand up blocking my face.
"Don't put this on me, I'm at a very weak spot right now." Karl states in his sarcastic voice, except it was a tired and out of breath sarcastic voice.
"Good performance!" Quackity laughs before standing up. "I gotta go back inside and I have to make sure nothing bad has happened or is happening. To be honest singing with y'all made me forget about the party."
"How can you forget a party that literally has speakers booming behind you?" Wilbur asked mockingly.
"Hey, y'all are some loud mouths that's how." We laughed as Quackity walked off.
"Hey guys!" We hear a soft voice come up, and then we see the soft voice bring another voice.
"Sup guys." The purple headed Minx spoke, behind Niki.
"Oh hey y'all, what's up!" Karl waved to them.
"We just saw some dancing and crap and we wanted to see what was up." Niki says sitting down on the log bench Quackity sat on.
"Ahh yes, Karl and Sapnap were performing for Mr Brightside." Wilbur informed, as he pushed his glasses up.
"Oh wait do it again!" Minx shouts at the two of us.
"No thank you, I'm heavily out of breath and I need water. So, not right now." Karl breathed as his body was over Karl's legs.
"Damn it we missed it" Minx said, looking to the side angrily.
"I'm actually gonna go get water, Sapnap, come with?" He looks at me, with an asking smile.
"You know I was going with you anyways, but yeah I'll go." I laughed as I stood up, I then gave Karl my hand for him to take to get help up.
"Alright, well, see ya boys!" Wilbur says sweetly.
"Bye!" Karl waves and we begin to walk.
"Well that was fun" I laugh as we walk back into the patio.
"Oh yeah it was great. Thanks for dancing with me," Karl looked at me as he scuffed his shoes.
"I mean I didn't have much of a choice, but I ended up enjoying it, thanks." I would dance with him again if I could.
Wait what is wrong with my mind today, I've called him cute like ten times today and I have called him pretty. I also didn't mind staring at is face, I didn't mind the thought of him kissing my cheek.
I don't like him like that, do I? I think it was just a few comments, it was just a stir of the moment thing. Like I find Dream attractive, I find Alex attractive but that's all in a friend way. I'm sure this is too. It has to be.
We walked passed by Dream and George and Bad and Skeppy on our way in, they were in the middle of a badminton game, we walked right by them though.
"I'm glad! Are you still afraid of the song Mr Brightside?" Karl sneered in a mischievous voice but with a pure smile.
"Oh yeah, I'm terrified." I joked as Karl opened the door. I kept my hand on Karl's shoulder, being sure not to lose him in the crowd of people dancing and talking.
We weave our way through as Scream And Shout was playing.
We ran into Fundy, he looked good, he wore his usual black and colorful striped zip up jack tied over his shoulder as he wore a button up with jeans.
"Hey guys!" Fundy says setting his drink down.
"Hey, Fundy, what's up." I say leaning against the counter as Karl picks up a drink that was pre poured and downs it before quickly running to the sink, turning it on the sink and dousing his mouth with water. "Karl!"
I went over to him, as did Fundy, I put my hand on Karl's back as he was spitting into the sink. "Wait what did you drink?" Fundy asks looking at the cups.
Karl looks up and points to a cup at the edge of the corner.
"Karl that was alcohol I think Jack Manifold brought, it says his name on the cup!" Fundy answered in a nervous and guilty laughter. Karl doused his mouth with even more water.
"Karl! How much was in there?" I asked, Karl stopping drenching himself with water before turning to me with his mouth still having water dripping down onto his chin and into the sink.
"There was like one third of it left. It tasted like soda but with way too much sodium and vinegar. Gosh!" He spits again into the sink.
"Ok good, that shouldn't be enough to get you drunk though, right, Fundy?" I look at the red haired character.
"It shouldn't be that much, Karl hopefully you can toughen this one out, it isn't that much alcohol." Fundy assures me and the brown haired boy, I look a little relieved, I do not feel like driving illegally in his car.
"Ok, I should be alright." Karl says wiping his mouth and chin with his sleeve before exclaiming, "that was disgusting."
I couldn't help but smile, "Why did you keep drinking it if it tasted bad?"
"I thought it was like old sprite, and to be honest I was thirsty and didn't care!" Karl huffed crossing his arms over his chest defensively.
"How did that taste like old sprite to you?" I couldn't help but tease the green eyed boy.
"Oh shut the honk up!" Karl punched me in the arm and I nudged him back.
"Alright well, we're gonna chill upstairs." I say to Fundy, who chucks his plastic solo cup into the trash can.
"I'd join you but I'm waiting for Hbomb. Y'all go have fun, I'm sure we'll talk later." He says with a grin.
"If you say so, Come on, Sapnap." Karl says, I put my hand on his shoulder again as he led me to the stairway where we walked into a room that was purple, A couple of people I didn't know were up there, but we didn't care. We took a seat on the couch and we took some time to breathe.
"Hey, you ok, Karl?" I ask as he has his eyes shut, he looked tired, which I mean I understand but it was only 10:00 now.
"Yeah I'm fine, I'm just tired, I'm not sure why." He sighs as he leaned closer towards me, he laid his head against my shoulder. I started to feel warm.
"It isn't the alcohol is it?" I joked but also meant it.
"No, Sapnap, it isn't the alcohol, I think." He then looked at me and his face pale under the purple light.
"You ok?" I'm worried for him, he's starting to look sick.
"Yeah I'm fine, Do you think we could walk around, I'm just a little restless." He says wiping his head as if he was sweating.
"Yeah, of course." I get up and I hold his hand and help him get up, he kind of staggered, but I kept a hold on him, "Woah, you alright?"
"Just got a little dizzy, I'm sorry I'm just tired." Karl says, his voice quivering. I didn't believe him but I wasn't about to go pick an argument, when he clearly doesn't feel well.
We started walking and we began walking down the hall. Karl stopped, and turned to me, his eyes were open and they were dull and then they shut as he lost his balance.
"Karl!" I had a good hold on him before just by holding his hand but I turned and caught him.
He immediately responded and he looked at me with anxiety and fear. "Sapnap, please take me to the bathroom, like now." He said with urgency, he turned around and still had hold of my hand. I obviously complied and I took Karl to the bathroom that was down the hall, praise god no one was in there. Karl hurries in and shuts the door behind him and I hear him slide his back down the door.
"Karl, you ok?" What was happening with him?
"No- Can you please just stay there?" I hear him sniffle. He was crying.
"I'll stay here, don't worry. I'll be sitting down right outside the door." I slid my back against the door too, and I knew Karl felt the pressure as my back pushed against the wood. "What's going on, Karl?" I softly say through the cracks of the door.
"I-I don't know. I don't know what's happening." I hear Karl stifle in his tears.
"I know you're crying, you don't have to try and not cry. What's the matter?" I keep my head facing towards the crack of the door.
"Sapnap, I want to go home." He cries. Karl isn't ok, and it was obvious to me, but not knowing why hurt a bit but this isn't the time.
"Alright let's get you home."
"I can't leave this bathroom." I could hear Karl grabbing toilet paper and blowing his nose.
"Why not?"
"If I told you, you'd laugh at me. I want to laugh at myself right now." I hear Karl suck in for air.
"Whatever is wrong, I won't laugh at, and don't ever think I'll laugh at anything you're going through. Karl I don't know what has you like this, but I want to help you, and I'm here to help you." I stand up and I know Karl heard me do that because his hand reached the doorknob.
"Fine, come in, but please don't laugh." Karl says as his voice breaks from crying. I slowly turn the doorknob as he was backed away from the door but still on the floor behind it.
Then it hit, Karl had a wet spot on his khakis, a really big wet spot. I don't know what it was from but I was assuming it was urine.
"I understand now. Don't worry about it, Karl, let's just get you home and get you cleaned up, yeah?" I say as I crouched down to him. The tears in his face genuinely hurt me somewhere inside my soul.
"How am I supposed to walk past all those people? How am I supposed to walk, I can't feel anything." Karl wept as he looked down.
"Karl, I'll get you out of here, now," I took my hands and cupped his face as I wiped his tears. "Now, come on, you have to trust me."
"I trust you. I'm just-"
"It's ok, I know, let's get out of here." I grabbed Karl's hand and I helped him up. I took my windbreaker off and I wrapped it around Karl's waist, doing it backwards so it would cover in the front and I tied it, luckily for me I was wearing an old white muscle tank
Karl looked at me and his tears were going away, that's what I wanted.
I took Karl's hand and we left the bathroom and walked down the stairs without being detected by anyone at all. I get the door for Karl and I shut it. We got to Karl's car and I go to the driver's side to get the door for him, Karl gets in on the passenger side though.
"What are you doing?"
"I shouldn't be on the road like this. Sapnap I know you can drive, and I know you can because I've seen you rip Dream's van in the school parking lot. Do you think you could drive us? And besides we both know this isn't the first time you've driven illegally." Karl says and looks at me with desperate and yet hurt eyes.
"Yeah sure, I'll get us home." I would be lying if I didn't say I was excited to be driving, but even more excited about driving a Tesla. but that was in the back of my mind, first thing on my mind was to get Karl home.
I crank the car with the push to start button. I carefully got out of the parallel parking spot we were in. Once out, I floored it. Karl looked like he was enjoying the thrill though.
"Hey, Text Dream for me, tell him that we left earlier and not to search for us." I told Karl, Karl immediately got his phone out and texted him.
"sent." Karl sighs as he dropped his phone into the empty cup holder. Karl rests his face on the door.
We eventually got to his house and I parked the car pretty well. At this point Karl was out asleep. I walked over to his side and I opened the door carefully and I picked Karl up after undoing his seatbelt. I take him to the front door and I unlock the front door and I lock the Tesla behind us. I get us both inside and I sat Karl down on the couch, I couldn't carry him much longer. I went to the sink and washed my hands because I'm pretty sure I touched a bit of Karl's khakis, but it was alright. I ring up Karl's dad, praying to God he'll answer, it's 10:35 ish.
He answered.
"Hey, Sapnap, what's up? Are y'all still at the party?" He asked in a soft quiet whisper. I can imagine him in the hallway to some clean hospital.
"Yeah, well, we came home early. Karl had a little incident at the party."
"Oh boy, what happened?" Jeff's voice turned into slight worry though he still sounded under wraps.
"He uh, peed himself." I just said bluntly, I smacked my forehead at how stupid I sound.
"Wait he just, peed himself? Is that it?" He asked.
"Well, he had started acting really weird before it though." I paced around the kitchen island, trying to recall everything.
"What did he act like?"
"He got really tired, and I thought he was just tired from the screaming and dancing. So we went and calmed down on the couch, and his face just went pale, and he started to sweat a tad and I had started to notice he was acting strange and sort of sickly in a way. So I asked him if he was ok, but he said he was fine and he said he just didn't feel like sitting. So we got up and as we got up Karl kind of staggered a bit, I caught him though, and we started walking. Then, all of the sudden, as we're walking he blanks out and, like, lost his balance, but like he wasn't out-out, I caught him though, again, and he opened his eyes and then told me to take him to the bathroom and so I did." I opened the fridge and got a water bottle and opened it.
"Ok, so he blanked out for how long?"
"I think probably for a minute." I took a small sip.
"Ok what is he doing now?" I looked at the sleeping boy on the couch.
"He's passed out asleep, sir."
"I wonder if he had a seizure, or something sort of neurological break." He thinks to himself.
"But like it didn't seem like a seizure, he didn't like to shake or stay out for long." I add onto his thought
"There are different types of seizures, Sapnap, some are subtle some aren't."
"Oh shoot. I hope he didn't have a seizure." I look at the pale boy in the sweater, I hope he didn't have a seizure.
"I'll have to check him out tomorrow morning. Please let me know if anything else happens and make sure he's warm, the coldness could trigger another seizure if he's had it in the last 24 hours." Jeff instructed me, I nod my head but then I forgot he can't see me.
"Yes sir, I'll make sure he's alright." I say after taking a water break.
"Thanks, Sapnap, for taking care of him while I'm gone, and thanks for keeping me in the loop. You're a good kid, Sapnap, I hope to get to know you better here soon." I could hear Jeff smile through the phone as he calmed down his voice.
"Yeah, I mean you're his dad you should know about these things, and of course I called you, I'm worried for Karl too. Also, on a brief note, thanks for letting me stay at your house and everything, you don't understand how much this means to me, Karl gave me a sanctuary here and that wouldn't have happened if it weren't for you letting me in. I hope to get to know you better as well." Karl's dad was a good guy, he was nice and he was open to ideas. I like the dude a lot, and it feels odd that I'm living here and yet I don't know him well and he doesn't know me well.
"Thanks, Sapnap, and I'm glad we could provide safety and hopefully homeliness here. I have to go, if you need anything please call. I'll talk to you later." And like that he hung up.
I look at the sleeping Karl, I hate to do this to him but he needs to wake up, I got to wash his clothes and he has to shower.
"Hey, Karl, get up. You got to take a shower." I move him slightly with my hand to his back.
"Sapnap?" Karl groggily says with his small voice.
"Yup, now get up, I don't want you sleeping in urine filled clothes. Let's go."
Karl got up and I took his hand and helped him up, and We walked to the stairway.
We walked into the bathroom and I walked out, "Hey, I'll be back in there in like a minute, will you be alright."
I hear Karl agree sleepily. I shut the door and I hear Karl turn the fan on. I got a text from Dream.
