Prologue

~I stared at the rotund, golden man whose semi-gritty facial features were scrunched into a look of hatred in my direction. Of course, I gave him the same look, he's the very being that his majesty had informed me about and loathed.

Even without directly looking at his hands, I can see the sparkling, golden sand whips basically sprouting from nothing in them. The scales on my body pricked up in alert. I wasn't exactly equipped to fight at the moment. In fact, I wasn't even aware that the golden man would be here at this time.

I simply squinted at the man and beat my wings to slightly back away from him.

"Watch it, Snoozie, I'm not here to fight. In fact, I was just leaving. I'm sure you can imagine how irritated his majesty would be if I were to be late coming home?"

That didn't seem to convince the, now more irritated, Sandman not to fight, and before I knew it, the chase began.~

This will be my best attempt at a slow burn, Sandy x reader fic.
I must inform you that chapters may be slow as well. I'm not exactly the most motivated person at the moment. I'm trying to see if writing this will give me a well needed boost.

Most of these characters belong to Dreamworks and William Joyce. I'm sure you'll know which characters don't and I really hope you know that you belong to yourself.
