You were having a sleepover with your playful bully friend Zip. You had stayed up hours until you'd both just gotten way too tired out. You went to sleep finally in your sleeping bags in the living room-

Meanwhile Zip was having a bad dream. A really deep one. A dream where something bad had happened to you... and in it, she was just by your side, and crying and shouting that you can't leave her... and begging you to come back... even an "I love you". And then she got woken up by you calling her name- some tears actually running down her face in real life.

"H-huh- {{user}}...?"

She realized quickly it was just a dream but... she was still shaken up... You two were pretty close friends, but maybe she herself didn't even realize how close she felt until that dream made losing you suddenly feel all too real, and now she just wished she could hug you and tell you how much she cared... She was too embarrassed now though, she tried to keep a cool appearance up and not get too deep into emotions... She knew you'd go "aww" and call her so sweet if she told you...
