Nick's pov:
I was watching the ring with Matt and Chris in the living room. I'm grasping Matt's hand like never before. We all hated scary movies, but Chris and Matt could handle them. Me on the other hand ? No way.

A Jumpscare popped up on the screen and I covered myself with the closest pillow to my right.

"Dude you're such a baby" Chris laughed.

I just rolled my eyes at him. "Says the one who couldn't sleep without mom until he turned 12" I shot back.

Matt chuckled while Chris glared at him.
"Whatever" he mumbled.

After the movie we were all pretty tired and decided to go to bed.

Matt and Chris went their own separate ways and I decided against following one of them.

I was already feeling watched for each and every angle and it hadn't even gotten fully dark yet.

God, how was I gonna survive the night.

I sighed and went back to my room, shutting every curtain and window but making sure to keep the lights on. I could hear soft snores coming from Matt's room since it was right next to mine.

Sometimes it was annoying if I'm being fully honest. There were times when Matt talked in his sleep and it could become creepy.

I'd been sitting on my bed for what felt like ages, and when I looked and the time it was already 2:30 am.

I put my phone and the nightstand and closed my eyes.

I didn't like the cold feeling that was breezing against my skin. The white t-shirt I was wearing apparently wasn't enough to save me from the cold December weather.

It took me a while to fall asleep but when I finally did I felt off. Really, really off.

-

"Where are they?"

I opened my eyes groggily.

"Come on, we need to find them"

I tossed and turned to get the voice to shut up.

Wait. What voice?

I shot open in bed, wide eyed and looked around. Is somebody trying to break in? Or is it thy damn girl from the movie.

Please no, please god no. I wanted to cry but all the limbs in my body froze.

"Matt.. Chris.. Matty?" I whispered out. No answer.

"Okay Nick calm down... it's probably nothing..." I told myself while pulling the comforter up to my chin. I need to save myself. What if I'm gonna get killed?

I heard something in the kitchen and pressed my eyes together.

It sounded like somebody was grabbing something from the cabinet.

What do we have in the cabinets...?

Knives.

I let out a scream before sobbing into my comforter. Just then my door slammed open.

"Nick? Nick what's wrong are you okay?!" I heard a voice. Not just any voice... the voice I hear every single day.

"C-Chris?.." I sobbed.

He nodded and ran up to me before giving me a right hug.

"What happened? Are you okay? Nightmare?" He asked.

I shook my head, not trusting myself to speak yet.

"Come here" he said before crawling into bed and pulling me close to his chest. I just continued to cry.

"M-Matt.. he oka-?" I remembered he was still in his room probably completely unaware of the robbers in the house. My sentence was cut off by a loud sob.

"Matty's fine Nick... why wouldn't he be? Hey just take some deep breaths, can you do that for me?" Chris whispered.

"There's someone here Chris! We need to save him" I cried.

Chris had this confused look all over his face, like he didn't know what I was talking about.

"there's no one here Nick, just calm down.. tell me what happened please?" Chris pleaded.

Just when I opened my mouth I was cut off by a sleepy Matt coming through the door.

"What's go- oing on?" Matt said between a long yawn. He rubbing his eyes the way he always did when he was tired.

Chris explained that he heard me scream and ran in to check on me.

Matt sat down in bed and pulled me into a hug.

"What happened Nicky?" He asked softly. I could tell he tried to calm me down and not stress me out like before.

"I he-eard someone in the kitchen and I-" Chris stopped me by putting a finger over my mouth.

"That was just me Nick... I was getting a glass off water" Chris smiled genuinely.

"Why were you awake in the first place?" Matt asked the long haired boy.

"Well because someone keeps talking in their sleep and keeps the whole house up" Chris glared at Matt.

Oh.. maybe there wasn't an intruder after all.

"It was just Matt..?" I asked quietly, not even sure if they could hear me.

Chris and Matt both laughed while they nodded.

Matt was quick to pull me into a second hug and rubbed my back. This made so much more sense.

Chris stood up and turned the lights back off before closing the door and getting on my left side while Matt was still on the right, leaving me trapped in the middle. Something we always did when one or the other were scared.

"Stay with me?" I asked.

"Always. We love you Nicky" Matt smiled before snuggling closer.

Chris just nodded in agreement before pulling me closer to him.

I really did have the best brothers in the whole wide world.

-

Matt and Chris were quick to fall asleep and I smiled to myself before laying my head against Chris's head.

"That was a really good idea"

My eyes opened quickly at the sudden voice. I giggled when I saw Matt mumbling in his sleep.

I pressed a kiss to his forehead before closing my eyes again and going to bed.. for real this time.
