My eyes slid open. A low rattling sound filled my ears, a sound that was all too familiar. The floor that I lay on was cold and uncomfortable, and I started shaking uncontrollably as I turned to my side to throw up mucus. I struggled to all fours and focused on my surroundings.
Holy crap.
I was back in the box. The cold, dark, rickety box, and as I travelled upwards at a growing speed, panic took over me. My breaths grew shallow and I was sure I was gonna pass out any second. I screamed until my throat grew hoarse. "HELP ME! SOMEBODY HELP ME! HEY! SOMEONE! ANYONE! HEY! HEY!"
"HEY! HEY! HEY!" a new voice overpowered my own. A boys voice. It filled my ears and the space around me, rattling my bones as it blared like a siren. I suddenly started shaking even worse like before, like there were invisible hands rattling me back and forth as I sobbed and screamed, tears stinging my cheeks.
"HEY! COME ON! WAKE UP!"
At that my eyes opened for real. I realized I was shivering, having kicked the blankets off of me, but beads of sweat ran down my forehead as I whimpered into my pillow.
"It's alright. Your okay."
I then saw that Minho was sat on the bed next to me, holding my shoulder with one hand and stroking my hair with the other. He had one leg on top of mine, clearly to stop me from kicking out everywhere. And as I tried to slow my breathing he let go of my shoulder.
"Nightmare?"
"No shit" I said shortly.
"Well sorry for being nice about it" he huffed.
"No. Sorry. Thanks for waking me up Minho. That was awful."
"Wanna talk about it?"
"Most definitely not."
"Oh. Okay then. Well, night."
"Minho wait"
"What do ya want, shank"
"Lie with me? Just for a minute or two"
"Awwww, you scared shuckface?" He teased.
"No! Well don't then!" I huffed, turning and facing away from him.
He laughed and I felt the bed sink under his weight as he climbed in beside me, and gently took my hand in his.
"Night Minho"
"Night shank"
"Minho? One more thing"
"Ah geez shuckface, haven't you already disturbed enough of my night. A guy like me needs his beauty sleep, don't you know."
"I was gonna say that if you ever tell anyone about this I'll kill ya"
"That goes for you too"
"Good that"
With that I drifted off into a much more undisturbed sleep, with Minho at my side.
