(MIKE POV)
I wake up to hear heavy breathing and Huffs beside me. I turn towards Will. I can barely see as darkness still lurks around in the room. Nighttime. It is still nighttime.
"Will?" I call out concerned trying to get a grasp of the situation.
"Mike? Go back to bed I'm fine. Really, I'm fine." His voice is shakey. It sounds like he has been crying but I can't tell.
"Will? What's going on." I face him realising he is sitting up. I sit up too.
"Nothing. Just go back to sleep." His voice breaks further, becoming more unstable.
I lean to my side to find the lamp and switch it on.
Will immediately glances to the side.
"Talk to me man." I whisper softly in desperation.
"It was just a stupid nightmare." He wipes his eyes facing me: his voice still fragile.
"You wanna talk about it?" I give him a gentle nudge and a reassuring smile.
He shakes his head looking down his face desolate.
It's as if he has had these type of nightmares before... Maybe vecna's visions?
I wonder what kind of torture Vecna has put him through.
He doesn't deserve to go through this pain... not alone.
I move closer to him on the bed and wrap my arms around him hugging him tight. I embrace his soft sobs over my shoulder.
"It's okay Will. shhhh. I'm here. I'll always be here." I whisper stroking his hair as he buries himself deeper into my arms. His body is tense at first, but loosens up as seconds pass by . In the heat of the hug there are welding sparks within me. I feel his soul melting into mine; a connection greater than touch.
Minutes pass by and Will breaks away from the hug sniffling as he wipes his tears.
"Thanks, Mike. We should go to bed. " He smiles. His eyes are so beautiful even after crying; His pools of hazel glisten in the moonlight .
"Yeah, Definitely." I smile back turning the lamp light off.
We both lay facing each other.
I move closer, hugging him with gentle arms, still allowing space for him breath. He rests his head on my chest as we both slip into a soothing slumber.~
I wake up earlier then Will, which is understandable, after all the shit he went through yesterday.
I carefully slip my way out of his grasp. For a few seconds, I just sit and stare in his peaceful presence.
He looks so beauty is undeniable.. even while asleep.
I quietly tiptoe out of his room in pyjamas. On my way out I bump into El.
"Oh, shit. Hi! I mean GOODMORNING." I say nervously. I partially forgot about the breakup we had a couple days back.
"Hi, Mike." She smiles . "You slept over..." El looks slightly confused.
"Yes umm...yes.. yeah a sleepover." I stumble on my words.
"In Will's room?" She gives me a glance of suspicion complimented with a grin.
"Umm yeah yeah. I just wanted to make sure he was okay that's all... nothing more." I say quickly. Why did it feel like I was being interrogated? Like I had something to hide.. I didn't. I didn't have anything to hide.
