You slowly push open the old door, the loud creaking noise making you wince.
"Dad?" You yell-Whisper into the darkness, fiddling with the hem of your pajama shirt.
"Dad." You say slightly louder.
There's a quiet rustle followed by a slurred "hm?"
You lean against the door frame, looking down, ashamed.
"I-I had another nightmare."
You've been having nightmares for awhile now ever since a man; James Moriarty kidnapped you. He wanted to get your father, John, to get to Sherlock.
(A rather long process you thought.)
You knew that he was dead, but the nightmares remained.
He immediately sits up.
"About Moriarty?" He asks.
A tear rolls down your cheek.
"Th-they won't go away, I know he's dead, I know...but..."
You sniffle loudly.
"Hey, c'mere" Your father, John opens his arms to you. You tip toe over to the bed, silently slipping underneath the blankets.
"You know I won't let anything happen to you ever. I'll always protect you, and so will uncle Sherlock."
You press your head into his chest with tears still falling.
"I know." You croak out.
His arms wrap around you.
"You'll be okay."

"I know."
