Skid and pump oneshots

Skid and pump oneshots #3

Me and Pump were sleeping peacefully. After an eventful night, they were exhausted and felt nauseous from eating so much candy. They both shared a full sized bed, since the house they lived in only had a master bedroom, and a kids room. Skid was asleep, lightly snoring, when he heard faint whimpers from next to him. He turned around to see pump curled up in a ball, crying.

He immediately woke up fully and tried to wake him up but nothing worked. He was whisper-yelling in his ear, shaking him, poking him, nothing seemed to work! He was getting worried. He wasn't going to let his best friend suffer like this! He went to the kitchen and found a water bottle. Mom had taught him not to waste, but he needed to wake up pump. He had seen this in movies, he just hoped it worked.

He went back to the bedroom, and poured tiny amounts of water on his face at a time. The water glistened in the moonlight coming from the window next to them, and finally pump woke up. Pump yelped, and couldn't keep his breaths steady. Skid tried to get him to breathe normally. He was panicking. "Alright, pump! Deep breaths! Focus on me and breathe!" Pump followed Skids breathing, and eventually calmed down. He was still shaking like crazy though. He was sobbing at this point. Skid couldn't help but feel bad for him.

He went to the living room and took a blanket from the couch to give to pump to comfort him. Next, he went to the kitchen to make some warm milk, since warm milk is supposed to make you sleep better? He wasn't sure. He took the warm milk and blanket back to Pump, who was still shaking. He wraps the blanket around him, and gives him the warm milk. Pump half smiles at him, but still looks miserable. They sit in silence for a little.

"....so pump, what was the dream about?" Pump was hesitant, but told him anyway. "Well..do you remember the night we met eyes?" "Of course I do! How could I forget?" Skid smiled. "Yeah..well..in the dream, we went back in time to where we first met him. Everything was the same, the Hatzgang, the scary stranger, but when eyes took us underground, he took you away from me! I couldn't see you, but I knew you were in danger. I don't know how, but I just did. Eyes took us back to the spooky mansion, but there were these weird people in red clothes! They said something like "everything will give us more than is all" or something like that. They seemed to want something to do with you skid. But for some reason, I couldn't move! I could only watch you. Thank you for waking me up before It got worse." Pump said.

Woah. Skid had heard of nightmares but..this felt surreal. He tried to comfort him, since he was starting to tear up again. By now he had finished his milk. Wow, the rumors are true! Pump could barely keep his eyes open, and would nod off every few seconds. Eventually, he fell asleep. He looked peaceful, so he decided to let him sleep. He deserves it. Especially with that horrible nightmare he had. I tuck him in, and get into bed. Making sure that pump was comfortable, I fall asleep.
