I am not going to bed yet
You can use this reply anytime someone tells you sweet dreams when you are not going to bed yet. This reply works really well and you will not have to explain to the person why you are using such a reply.
Just let the person know that you are not going to bed yet and the person will take back his statement. He may have misunderstood you or you must have sent a wrong signal that made the person think that you were going to bed.
That is not an issue, as long as you have already passed the message that you are not going to bed soon.
I am not sleeping till you are ready to sleep
This is a reply that you can use for someone who is your spouse and someone that you usually sleep alongside before.

It may sound funny to the person though, but this reply is best if you find that person attractive and maybe you want to get close to the person.
You are free to be at my place
If someone you just met tells you sweet dreams, you cannot give the person this reply because you do not know the person too well. It is best to use this reply on someone you are really close to and someone you like.
You can even use it to reply to your boyfriend as a way of inviting him to your place at night. If he will be available, he will let you know.
This shows you do not want to be alone that night, you want his company. He will definitely get the message.
I hope I will be in your dreams too
