The boxer and the racer (creek)

Nightmare (tweek)

TW: scary shit and mad gay (again)

WORD COUNT: 706

I was running through a field of daisies it wasn't bad at first lazily running through the field without a care in the world, until I saw it.

My heart dropped to my feet and I gasped audibly and it turned to stare at me. It was one of those skin walker things that Wendy had told me about. She had a major horror phase in middle school and has since traumatized me with the beasts and cryptids. It moved closer and my heart rate quickened.

The beast was changing forms rapidly once a deer then a wolf then a deer again. It stood on its hind legs and let out a scream that was eardrum shattering. I ran as fast as i could through the now thick brush that was daisies not even five minutes prior. It screamed again and I fell, tears dripping down my cheeks and onto my shirt. I stumbled getting up and it quickly caught up with me. I got up fully this time and started sprinting using all my leg muscles.

It outstripped me easily and a low growl erupted from its throat. My heart was beating wildly in fright I looked up saw it's sharp rows of teeth. It had at least eight rows of razor sharp teeth. I let out a piercing scream and it bent down jaws dripping with saliva and blood. It shape shifted once again and it was deer then a wolf again, when it was a deer it grabbed me like it was nothing with one antler and threw me across the field.

I felt myself being shook as I screamed, my eyes flew open and I jumped up.

"Whoa Tweek calm down!" Craig yelped jumping out of the way of me. Tears and sweat ran down my face and he looked up at me sympathetically. "Nightmare?"

I crossed my arms still shaking. "What do you think?"

"I'm taking that as a yes." He opened his arms, "come here."

I fell into his arms and hugged him, he was warm. Surprisingly warm. Cold sweat fell down my face and little blots of tears on Craig's shirt now.

"Do you want a coffee?" He asked me and I nodded wiping my eyes.

We pattered into the kitchen Craig's arm around me protectively.

I pushed him off and he looked hurt but I was just trying to get at the coffee maker because he always makes it super gross. Too watery for my liking.

I looked at the clock 2:48 am.

I made my coffee quickly and looked at Craig who was staring at me.

"Whenever I had nightmares I would sleep in my moms bed." He stated simply, I stared at him blankly in response and he sighed. "Do you want to sleep in my bed tonight?"

"Sure." I took a sip of my coffee, and Craig flushed red.

I scurried over to my room and grabbed my pillow Craig close behind me because I was still shook from the nightmare.

"I'll meet you there hon." Craig said trudging over to his room across the hall. I blinked and followed him, he laid down and motion for me to get in. I nodded and crawled in beside him, far enough to not be weird but close enough to still feel safe.

He fell asleep quickly and his arm flopped onto my body. I flushed but let it slide because I didn't want to wake him. I saw his eyes flutter open then close again. Very slick Craig. I snickered to myself looking at him then played along. He heaved a fake snore then pulled me into his chest.

I rolled over to my back was against his chest and fell asleep with his arms around me.

IN THE MORNING!!!

Craig's arm was still around me but he was awake and seeing I was awake he quickly retracted it blushing furiously.

I smiled weakly and turned around to look at him.

"Will you let go of me please Craig?"

"AH! YEAH! YES I WILL SORRY! IM SO SORRY TWEEK!"

I smiled lightly "it's okay." He let me go and I got up with a jump.
